The crimson light dissipated, and Angel opened his eyes from the recliner in his study room on the third floor.
She immediately looked around to make sure that the doors and windows of the study were properly closed, that no servants had barged in by mistake, and that there was no "Nighthawks" or other official Beyonder standing beside her, waiting for "Demoness Sect members" to recover from their strange stiffness.
It seemed that last night's review passed smoothly. Of course, it was just the first and easiest time... She breathed a sigh of relief and stood up from the recliner, preparing to go to the living room to have a cup of afternoon tea and enjoy the chef's special Intis style pastries.
"Louis Wien, Mr. X, 'Traveler' who is suspected to be able to Spirit World Shuttle... Well, when 'The World' Klein accepted the commission, the other members didn't seem surprised at all. It seems that they have known who killed 'Admiral of Blood' in the past two weeks, and connected him with 'The World'."
She muttered, preparing to push open the study door.
"But it's normal for Klein to be interested in this. Oracle of 'Aurora Order' is the kind of person who will not feel guilty if he kills her, not to mention pressing Miss Magician said that 'Traveler' has a high probability of having fast movement abilities similar to Mr. Azik. If he could Grazing his soul..."
Thinking of this, Angel herself is a little excited. Her "Rose Necklace" currently has three souls and is at full capacity. However, if there is a suitable new target, one of them can be released and replaced with other more practical souls... And "Traveler", which can quickly Travel, is undoubtedly stronger than any of "Judge", "Wind-blessed" and "Desire Apostle".
Of course, Angel can already use "Mirror World" to move less quickly, but can be combined with its own combat capabilities. The need for "Traveler" is not too urgent, so it can be given to Klein, so that both of them can quickly leave Backlund and go where they want to go.
"We haven't solved the problem yet, so we are starting to think about dividing the spoils..." She smiled self-deprecatingly, and suddenly felt a cold touch on Magic Mirror on her chest.
After closing the study door again, Angel took out Magic Mirror and found that a small piece of black viscous liquid smeared on it had completely evaporated.
"It's Trissy, she wants to contact me?"
After pondering for a moment between afternoon tea and Trissy, Angel sat back at the desk, waved his hand gently, and took out a sticky lump hidden in "Mirror World" The mushy black thing, this is Communication Potion made by Trissy after burning his own hair. It is obviously not the same genre as Lola, but the effect is similar.
The hair that has not broken off the connection with itself may be able to divine her current position... Angel subconsciously wanted to perform divination, but felt that it was inappropriate or even too reckless. The other party was given the name "Cheek" and almost became Demoness of Divine Descent Vessel. He might be directly exposed to the sight of the evil god "Primordial Demoness" by divination hastily, and that would undoubtedly be an act of seeking death.
A divination on Lanevus, the container of "True Creator", taught her a painful lesson.
Putting aside these thoughts, Angel twisted some of the medicine and applied it on a separately prepared dressing mirror. He watched them quickly merge into the mirror surface, igniting the invisible Black Flame, and finally made the mirror dark and deep.
On the other side, Trissy, who was wearing a simple black skirt and her long silky hair hanging casually on her shoulders, looked at her expressionlessly.
"I didn't expect you to contact me so soon. I thought it would take until night."
Her tone was calm, but Angel could hear a hint of surprise in it.
"I happen to be going to have afternoon tea, so if you have anything, you'd better say it as soon as possible."
Across the mirror, Trissy was obviously not as respectful as the last time they met. Although Angel could try to crawl along the "network cable" and beat her, he felt that it was meaningless to vent her anger, so he just "pressured" her with words.
Fortunately, Trissy quickly told Angel about his discovery:
The William Sykes she has been tracking will visit Royal Museum in West Borough with his mistress tomorrow, Tuesday morning. After the trip, he will most likely return to the suburban manor that day. It belongs to a viscount and is tightly guarded and difficult to enter.
In other words, tomorrow will be the last chance for Trissy to take action.
"What are you going to do?"
After listening to Trissy's narration, Angel asked curiously.
"After he and his mistress visit the exhibition, they will have a meal nearby, and then rest for a while at the hotel. I will subdue him at that time. As for whether to directly torture or kill Spirit Channeling, it depends on the situation at the time."
Trissy answered expressionlessly, as if he was discussing what to have for dinner rather than someone's life or death.
"It's best to torture him directly. Spirit Channeling may leave traces of the spirit," Angel suggested. "Is William Sykes Beyonder? What Sequence? What Mystical Item are there on you?"
"He is Sequence 6'Baron of Corruption' of Lawyer Pathway. He is proficient in using rules to weaken the enemy and Distortion other people's intentions to strengthen himself. There is a pocket watch that never leaves his body, it is probably Mystical Item..."
Trissy answered these detailed questions related to tomorrow's battle one by one, and finally said:
"I can easily deal with him, but if another Beyonder appears during the battle, it will be left to you to deal with... Don't worry, Demigod should not appear."
It should be... have you ever done divination? Even my divination expert friends don't dare to be so sure...Angel chuckled lightly and asked:
"Are you so sure because... you have the help of 'Primordial'?"
Trissy The white, sad face expression instantly Distortion:
"Although I sold my soul to the evil god, I don't have to rely on Him for everything!"
Sure enough, she is still in contact with "Primordial Demoness", and may even take the initiative to contact this evil god. This may be somewhat similar to the situation when Lanevus was in Backlund, but the latter wanted to escape, but she took the initiative to get closer... Angel sighed secretly, no longer irritating the other party, and said in a calm tone:
"I understand, I will go there nearby tomorrow morning, but I may not necessarily meet you."
She is prepared to observe everything in secret, provide necessary help, and retreat as soon as possible if something goes wrong!
Trissy seemed to feel that her emotions were not right. She touched the mirror and darkness enveloped her figure.
After the mirror surface returned to normal, Angel summoned a ball of Black Flame, which wrapped the vanity mirror that had been used for communication and was likely to be tracked. After being promoted, it can provide extremely high temperatures and can melt glass. The flames of the glass completely burned the mirror, severing all occult connections, and then threw it into Mirror World to destroy the corpse and eliminate all traces. Only then did he call the housekeeper Ribak with confidence, and after a few small talk, Zhuang Ruo asked casually:
"Tomorrow morning, no, what are your plans for the day tomorrow?"
"After breakfast, the clothing store will send a new batch of custom-made dresses. You need to confirm and receive them in person. In the morning, I made an appointment with the Backlund Music Academy's teacher to teach. In the afternoon, I went to Kingdom Grand Theater to watch the latest drama. Then I have to visit a neighbor. There is a literary salon in the evening."
Ribak immediately recited all of her itinerary for tomorrow without any hesitation.
This is too busy... Angel felt his vision darken, and suddenly he didn't want to care about Trissy's affairs.
"I have personal matters tomorrow, how can I free up all the time during the day?"
Since she was not sure how long it would take to torture William Sykes tomorrow, she steeled herself and said to the housekeeper.
"Then I will help you cancel the music class and literary salon, change the play to the afternoon of the day after tomorrow, bring gifts to the neighbor's house you plan to visit to apologize, and ask Female Butler Ms. Kayla to sign for your clothes."
Glancing at his employer curiously, Ribak quickly arranged everything.
Apart from being expensive, this kind of butler has no disadvantages. Well, it's my problem, not his... Angel nodded with satisfaction, and after the other party exited the study, he lazily lay back on the recliner.
She was no longer in the mood for afternoon tea and pastries.
East Borough, in a room with simple furnishings, but all the windows were covered with curtains.
Trissy, wearing a black dress with disheveled black hair, was sitting on her knees on the floor. The full-length mirror in front of her just now showed the beautiful face of "Desperate" Demoness, but now it reflected her own round, but extremely sweet face.
She frowned, her expression was Affliction, and she stared at herself in the mirror. Her smooth black hair gradually floated up, one by one, and turned into a head full of thick and smooth black "tentacles". The tops either had round eyes or opened their mouths spitting out red seeds, casting wriggling shadows in the dim room.
With Trissy's suppressed groan, the tentacles retracted, became smaller, and turned into a head of smooth black hair again. Her whole body was soaked with sweat, and the black skirt clung to her body, outlining the extremely attractive waist and hip curves. Affliction's expression eased, which was pitiful.
"Cheek..."
She muttered the name in a hoarse voice, stood up from the ground suddenly, and took off her soaked dress, revealing her fair skin...
And the patterns on it that are slowly disappearing, like black oil paint.
"Is this the consequence of not passing Promotion Ritual and being promoted to 'Affliction'... Ha, that's all."
She forced a smile, walked to the full-length mirror, looked at the appearance and body that would have driven her crazy as a man, but now she didn't care, and chuckled:
"Anyway, now we finally have a clue... all this is just the beginning of revenge...
"..."
She read out a name silently, with a calm expression and soft eyes.
Backlund West Borough, Kingdom Avenue, Royal Museum.
This exhibition is organized by the royal family and will last for one month. It will display hundreds of authentic items, including precious collections from the founding period. It is divided into multiple exhibition areas, divided by different themes such as historical period and commemorative significance, so that people of different classes and ages can gain respect and recognition for the kingdom and the royal family from the exhibition.
Among the bustling crowd at the entrance, a man and woman entered the museum together. The man was about thirty years old, wearing a hat and formal clothes, and holding a gold-encrusted cane in his hand. The woman next to him was in her early twenties, dressed gorgeously, and she hugged the man's arm in an extremely intimate manner.
After checking in, the two followed the crowd into the exhibition hall, wandering aimlessly and commenting on a certain collection from time to time.
In a half-length mirror next to the entrance, Angel was hiding quietly in Mirror World, watching every move of her and Trissy's goal today, William Sykes.
