If you hadn't seen "Lady Despair" Panacea and "White Saint" Katarina with your own eyes, Angel would actually be difficult to distinguish between "despair" and "Unaging" Demoness. After all, after being promoted to High Sequence, the improvement in appearance of Demoness is not as obvious as that of Mid Sequence. It is more of a difference in temperament.
Yes, temperament, the first time Angel saw this black-haired woman, he thought of the moment when he witnessed Katarina drilled out of Mirror World on "Black Death". The latter showed a youthful demeanor that was not suitable for his age.
Different from the unabashed charm of "Pleasure" and "Affliction" and the holy and dignified image of "Despair", "Unaging" exudes a temperament that has gone through hardships from the inside out, but becomes more pure, lively, and even cute.
It is this temperament that makes her wear an old-fashioned palace dress and her hair is tied up like a lady, but it gives people a feeling of youthfulness. If it weren't for the confused expression on her Orange-Red Short-Haired Girl face that makes people feel more distressed, I am afraid that the guests in the cafe will think that the two are of the same age.
"Demoness Sect person in charge of Trier, 'Black Saintess' Clarice..."
Angel recalled Black Cat Wensa's warning before she came to Intis.
It seems that this Demoness, who has the same age-inappropriate temperament as "White Saint", should be "Black Saintess" who is in charge of Trier Demoness Sect.
Angel secretly felt extremely lucky. The moment she saw this High Sequence Witch, she reacted the same way as the other women in the cafe - staring at the other woman unabashedly and expressing the full emotion she should have, instead of looking away instantly.
After all, a Sequence 3 Demoness, even if she does not take the initiative to show off her charm, can make anyone of the opposite sex or the same sex fall into uncontrollable lust with her appearance and temperament. Only Beyonder, who is aware of the dangers of "Demoness", has the slightest chance of quickly recovering from the shock.
Therefore, Angel made a reluctant look and action after the other party left, to prevent the other party from secretly observing the first floor of the cafe through Mirror Magic and discovering that this new customer behaved differently from ordinary people.
Of course, too much is too much. Angel, like other customers, quickly returned to normal after a slight physical reaction. However, the topics among the young women in groups inevitably developed into same-sex relationships. Angel, who had excellent hearing, quickly became unable to sit still. He drank the coffee in one gulp and left Red House Cafe quickly.
"It seems that Arrodes's tip is correct. We can indeed find clues to 'Demoness Sect' here. However, the first time I came here to face Trier's 'Black Saintess', I was a little caught off guard..."
Angel muttered, and did not leave Shayo Town in a carriage immediately. Instead, he continued to wander among the grapevines in the town, went to several famous wineries to inquire about the prices, and tried several brands of Shayo Wine. He only set off on his way back when Sun was sinking.
This is a response to the possible peek of "Black Saintess" Clarice. Angel believes that Demoness of Sequence 3 cannot break through Arianna's "Hidden Holy Emblem", divination will only get some false conclusions of "no abnormality", but if the other party directly uses Mirror World to track and spy on Angel's movements, it cannot be solved by using Anti-Divination.
If after seeing this Demoness, I hurriedly left Shayo Town, contrary to my shocked expression at the time and blushing afterwards, I'm afraid I would have been stopped by her before the carriage even left Shayo Town, and I wouldn't even have time to run to the nearest Sacred Heart Cloister to seek help from Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun "Purifiers"...
It wasn't until the carriage drove away from Plaza District where Shayo Town was and returned to Honest People Market District before nightfall that Angel took a deep breath and confirmed that he was away from danger.
Of course, given that there was no trace of what was seen in the mirror, Angel still acted like an ordinary traveler, enjoying a sumptuous Intis-style dinner at a nearby restaurant, admiring the night view of the city along the brightly lit Serenzo River, and did not return to his residence until late at night.
During this period, she was also secretly analyzing today's experience in her mind and reflecting on her own recklessness.
"Unlike 'White Saint' Katarina who has never appeared in public, this 'Black Saintess' Your Excellency obviously has his own identity and interpersonal relationships, and even participated in and organized a secret group of women who love women. body, which shows that she herself is not directly involved in the Demoness Sect's affairs like Katarina. She may have a legal identity like Madam Sharon, secretly commanding other Demoness to complete the sect's instructions...
"If so, there must be other Demoness around her, at least one 'Despair', more 'Affliction' and 'Pleasure'... Of course, after her forces go to Backlund to create Great Smog and are eliminated by Orthodox Church, these numbers may decrease...
"Is that girl with short orange-red hair, somewhat neutral manners and clothes, a certain former man who just became 'Witch'? This explains her performance well, but if a 'Unaging' personally leads her, she either has an extraordinary status, or is as important to the Demoness Sect as Trissy...
"No matter what, it is a very irrational choice for me to go to Red House Cafe to look for traces of the Demoness Sect. I should at least wait for Arrodes for a few more days to confirm some details before going there, or even contact the official Beyonder in advance., prepare for the worst... But I didn't think so much at the time and just did it naturally. Is it because after I became High Sequence Beyonder, the same 'Aggregation Effect' as Pathway has become obvious?
"If this continues, maybe one day I will unknowingly walk into the bedroom of a certain 'Unaging' Demoness and throw myself into a trap..."
She thought with some fear and decided not to think about the Demoness Sect and those women's groups these days until she asked Arrodes again or obtained Sevillea's residence from informant Danio, then she would consider looking for traces of Demoness.
And it's better to start from Sevillea's stupid Demoness instead of crashing directly into the stronghold of "Unaging"...
Of course, Angel has no chance of winning against this "Black Saintess". She has two pieces of Demigod level Mystical Item, "Parasite" gloves and "Wings of Death" feathers.
The former, on the premise that she is familiar with Demoness Beyonder Ability, can steal a certain key ability of the opponent, tilting the balance of combat power slightly towards her side.
The feathers of Death pathway can disperse and control the undead and limit the mobility of living creatures. Although it is most suitable for dealing with Wraith, Gatekeeper and other Sequence, it has a certain effect against any living being.
Most importantly, Angel can also summon the headless Messenger Miss and Reinette Tinekerr who owe her a fight. The latter, according to her and Klein's evaluation, at least possesses Sequence 3's fighting ability even stabilizes Sequence 3's "Rose School" Demigod. As long as she is allowed to take action, Demoness may not even be able to escape...
"At most..." "Five minutes..." "Angel..." "It will come..."
Huh?
