At this moment, Angel spent two lifetimes of self-control not to change his expression.
Of course, that is not surprise or panic, but a joking smile. After all, in Klein's dream, the colleague in front of him once accused "Angel Granger" with his hands on his hips, which is "Irene", and also "Irene". Angelica", and "Unaging" Demoness who went to great lengths to sneak into Tingen City Nighthawks Squad made Angel hiding in the mirror a big joke.
But at this moment, he suddenly became angry and asked this question to "Christine Teresa" who should not have any contact with the above-mentioned people, which still made Angel a little curious.
This is probably one of his sudden thoughts, not a planned problem... If he is very confident that I am Angelica Zaki, the "Unaging" Demoness in his mouth was still in the Sonia Sea just now defeated "Abomination" Suah's "Golden Queen". It would be impossible to directly ask questions like this. It would be too dangerous. No matter how reckless a person is, he would not do so...
And if he is not sure, then asking this sentence will only alert the snake, and will not have the effect of verifying the conjecture at all...
The only possibility is that during the previous inquiry and several previous meetings at Physical World, he thought that my undisguised purple eyes were very similar to those of his former colleagues, and he also thought of me and Mr. "Fool"'s disciple, Dwayne Dantès came very close and suspected that I had some connection with Dawn and Klein, and was even a member of the secret organization... Angel immediately thought of the most likely reason, with a slightly surprised expression on his face, and replied:
"Of course I have heard of it, but this understanding should be only one-sided.
"After all, the 'Golden Queen', full of mystery and racing on Above the Five Seas, is the idol of every woman with adventure dreams in her heart."
This answer takes into account the hesitation that may be seen by Leonard, corresponds to his hidden second identity, and is also in line with his early experience - the word "idol" was used by Emperor Roselle, and in Intis it is a common term used by many citizens who pursue fashion.
"Okay, thank you for your cooperation, Miss Theresa."
Just like Angel's guess, Leonard didn't think about it in detail. He just bowed again and stepped back into the shadow of the room.
"Why is "The Great Pirate Series" so popular now... I can't tell that she actually reads that kind of book..."
Vaguely, Angel also heard his increasingly distant mutterings.
That kind of book? Isn't "The Great Pirate Angelica" just an ordinary Adventure Novel... Tilting his head in confusion, Angel lay back, leaving the dream fragments modified by Nightmare's ability, and returned to his warm bed.
Entering the new week, Angel's busy work is no longer limited to Backlund's social occasions, but also includes the hard work of sending and receiving various "emails" in the study, which makes her feel like she has returned to modern society.
Klein sent a letter through "regular channels", saying that he would probably leave Backlund this week and go to the Southern Continent.
And Black Cat Wensa brought a letter from Trissy. Demoness, who is hidden in Backlund and is committed to avenging her Prince, has been locked. The current target is set, Palace Guard Captain Viscount Stratford. Currently, there is an urgent need for a Mystical Item that can hide the identity and change the appearance, so that the wanted criminal can approach the other party in person and use gentle means to obtain information.
Angel can now escape the use of the "hypocritical" ring with the help of wigs and makeup, but Mystical Item is still indispensable for its ability to change its appearance at any time, so there are no plans to lend it to the other party for the time being.
Moreover, she thinks it is too dangerous for Trissy to act in person. The opponent is probably Beyonder of Sequence 5, and there are more Beyonder guards around him. Even if Trissy is disguised, he is likely to be exposed to the eyes of these people. Moreover, with her current mental state, can she really use herself as bait to catch that Baron?
After thinking about it, Angel replied with a letter, suggesting that Trissy find another helper who could follow orders, had considerable potential, and had no "criminal record", and recommended Shermane to her.
The latter has been successfully promoted to Witch, and with the help of Xio Derecha, she has reintegrated her gang in East Borough. The role has naturally fallen into a bottleneck, and Angel intends to find something for her to do, giving her a chance to summarize her own Acting Rule.
Of course, if Trissy "taught" his little seedling bad, Angel would not mind getting out of the mirror in the middle of the night and teaching her a profound lesson.
Watching Black Cat Wensa leave with the letter in his mouth, shaking his body, and getting into Spirit World with some anger, Angel fell into deep thought.
She is not worried about Trissy acting against the will and turning Shermane into the bloody "Witch". This temporary collaborator is still very sensible in communicating with the superiors and knows what should be done and what should not be done.
What I am most worried about is Wensa who sent the letter. It seems that he and Demoness Sect are at least one of the masterminds in the Great Smog incident and the conspiracy behind it, but they leave Trissy alone and seem to be observing and waiting for something to happen. This makes me even more worried. Moreover, I originally thought that Great Smog was the end of a series of "cooperations". Now it seems that it is just the beginning. Katarina's whereabouts have been unknown. Even Arrodes doesn't know what she is busy with. Among them must be Anti-Divination of Angel level, counter-prophecy and Secret Keeping abilities... Angel thought more and more, and finally waited for the arrival of another messenger after sighing.
Reinette Tinekerr's neck was smooth and smooth, and it was dragging four heads in its hands. Reinette Tinekerr descended gracefully from the air, but the four heads were biting objects that made Angel laugh.
Two of them held one end of "Reaper Legion" in their mouths, causing the nine complete dolls to sway in the air. The other two each held a letter in their mouths. Seeing Angel, it seemed that she had four mouthfuls, and everything fell on the table.
Angel first took the bunch of Tinplate Puppet with distress, checked it and put it away carefully, then picked up the letter, opened it and looked up, and found that it was indeed from Anne.
As expected, the pirates suffered heavy losses. Except for the pirates who left the dock before Suah arrived and the Pirate Admiral who had a certain ability to protect themselves, almost all the remaining participants died. "King of the Five Seas" Nast is very angry, but the follow-up investigation is likely to come to nothing. After all, even if the forces standing behind "Rose School" have difficulty reaching the sea, they are not something that Sequence 3 can fight against...
The good news is that all acquaintances, including Helene and Tracy, are safe and sound. Anne has sent the former back to Bayam offshore, and Although the latter is not within Angel's "expectations", there is nothing that can be done about "Vice Admiral of Ailment" who is backed by "White Saint" and Katarina in the short term.
The surviving pirates had already left. Anne noticed that Loen Navy's fleet had visited the deserted island. Considering that the pirates already had military spies, the bounty for "Golden Queen" might have increased again.
Finally, Anne also reminded Angel that Suah has not been severely damaged. Once someone contacts him through Sacrificial Ritual, this "Abomination" can still come to any place at any time. She asked Angel to be careful of the revenge of "Rose School", not to be stingy with the power of her mark, and to try not to put herself in danger like she did half a year ago.
Is she reminding me to pay attention to my safety...Angel chuckled and looked at another shorter letter.
Its handwriting is somewhat different. Angel speculates that it comes from "Queen Mystic" Bernadette. She has received the reminder about "Mirror Person" conveyed by Cattleya and said that she will investigate in depth.
As a thank you, she can help contact a "Artisan" and make a Mystical Item of High Sequence Beyonder Characteristic for a fee.
It seems that "Queen Mystic" has its own high-end Artisan channel. Hmm, the "alchemist" that "Hermit" and Cattleya said he could contact cannot be the same... Angel thought about it and decided to inquire first.
After writing a letter in reply, Angel handed it to Reinette along with a gold coin. Looking at the messenger who was about to leave, he suddenly asked:
"Do you know the situation of 'Abomination' Suah?"
Reinette The four heads turned around at the same time, looking at Angel with their blood-red eyes.
"Indulgence's..." "Collection..." "Desire..." "Stooge..."
The heads answered in turn.
It took Angel a few seconds to realize that these were all descriptions of "Abomination".
And the wording is quite negative, with indescribable emotions.
There won't be any festivals between them, considering that Messenger Miss was "Ancient Bane" during his lifetime, and Suah was "Abomination", located in the same Pathway is approaching Sequence, maybe there is a big contradiction, at least according to Law of Conservation of Beyonder Characteristics... Angel thought about it, nodded and said:
"If I need to fight Him, can you help?"
If "Rose School" summons Suah again, and the ritual is completely successful, allowing Sequence 1's "Abomination" to arrive completely, Anne alone may be unable to resist it.
Of course, the same goes for Messenger Miss, which is even less powerful than Sequence 2, but at least it has a better chance of winning.
"My..." "Power..." "Not yet..." "Complete..."
Reinette answered slowly, the heads paused, and continued:
"So..." "Need..." "Increase..." "Remuneration..."
Following the flashes of Red Light's eyes, Angel saw the "Iris Flower Winery" transfer contract that had just been completed and registered for Notarization on his desk, and a wry smile appeared on his face.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Angel appeared on time in the palace shrouded by Gray Fog.
As soon as she sat down, she noticed the undisguised look of surprise from "Hermit" Cattleya next to her.
She didn't think that I died in the battle with "Abomination" Suah... That scene was very similar to the ending of dying together, but others should be able to tell from Anne's reaction that I was fine... Angel muttered and gave "Hermit" a kind smile, scaring the other party to quickly look away.
With the greetings of Miss Justice, a new week of Tarot Club begins. This week, in addition to Angel and "Magician" and Miss who submitted a page of diary as planned, there was only one submission from "Hermit" that continued to roll in. She wrote three pages of her diary. Of course, she included a strange question, letting everyone know clearly that the source of her diary was "Queen Mystic" Bernadette, who was most concerned about Emperor Roselle.
After Fool's reading time ended, everyone heard this question:
"Dear Mr. Fool, what I want to ask is, where is the tomb of Emperor Roselle?"
