At the same time, Earl Hall was at home and Audrey was in the bedroom.
A rich Gray Fog suddenly appeared in front of the Audrey Hall who was sitting in front of the dressing table. Among them, Mr. "Fool" was sitting on a high throne. Beside him, a Angel with twelve pairs of Flame Wings on his back slowly floated up and flew towards her.
This, this is not the same as the previous Angel...
As soon as Audrey realized something, the flame Angel passed by her eyes. It did not wrap her with layers of wings like when she was protected by Fool before, nor did it penetrate directly into her body. But even so, the heat of the flame wings was transmitted to her through Gray Fog, making her feel like she was bathing in the hot summer air, and even breathing was a little difficult.
Huh, huh...
Breathing hard, Audrey couldn't help but have a thought in his heart: Is Mr. "Fool" going to punish me? Do I want to Affliction like that day "Hermit", scream, or even be burned to death by the flames?
Fortunately, Archangel with twelve pairs of flame wings quickly disappeared into Gray Fog. Audrey's skin, which had already shed a lot of sweat drops, felt the cool air again. Then, a deep voice came from her ears:
"... Do not take any adverse action against the members of Tarot Club.
"In addition, the time to remove Hypnosis is before Tarot Club starts. Pay attention to someone you came into contact with between the last two Tarot Clubs."
Gray Fog dispersed, and Audrey only saw himself in the dressing mirror with a pale face and sweat on his forehead.
I always feel that the ends of my hair are a little dry. The burning heat just now is by no means an illusion, but a small punishment imposed by Mr. "Fool". If there is a next time, I am afraid that Angel will hug me directly and burn me to ashes with his wings...
Thinking with some fear, Audrey first bowed his head and expressed his gratitude to Fool for his tolerance. He got up and went to the bathroom to wash his face. He gradually calmed down under the stimulation of running water and began to think about the reply he just heard.
"Mr. Fool said that Hypnosis has been removed from my body, but there are no forgotten memories in my mind, or any inconsistency in my thinking... This shows that the Hypnosis applied to me is so superficial that it barely affects my surface consciousness...
"In addition, He mentioned that the time to be relieved of Hypnosis is this Monday, so we should pay attention to the people who came into contact between the last two Tarot Clubs. This means that it was most likely that I was exposed to Hypnosis on a certain day last week?
"But I met too many people last week, the staff of Student Aid Fund, students and teachers from various schools, those poor applicants..."
Audrey murmured to herself, recalling every acquaintance or stranger she had met in her mind. Even if she was Sequence 6's "Hypnotist", it was very difficult to remember so many people who had only met once.
But then, she remembered a suspect that she had subconsciously ignored.
Mr. Stephen Hampres.
This furniture merchant met with Audrey last Thursday, and Audrey took the initiative to request the meeting.
Because his other identity is a member of "Psychology Alchemists", and he is also the liaison person who took over the job after Miss Escalante, who led her to join this organization, was killed and replaced by Ms. D.
"The reason why I ignored him was not only because I took the initiative to discuss the affairs of 'Psychology Alchemists' with him, but also because he was just a 'Telepathist', not even as good as my own Susie. This subconscious contempt is now discovered by me, which also means that it is affected by some kind of 'Hypnosis' power...
"In the meeting that day, in addition to Hampres, there was also a hidden "Spectator" with a higher Sequence. It should be that Hvin Rambis... It was he who implanted the idea in the conversation between the two of them that I should not take down "Lies", and made me ignore this meeting...
"No, no one knows the existence of 'Lies' except Tarot Club and Susie. 'Hypnosis' should not point to this matter...Hvin Rambis should let me investigate Christine Miss according to my own wishes, and they can wait for the results, as long as they get it from me!"
Audrey's eyes gradually opened wide, and various clues in his mind connected together.
After the Baron Cinderas incident, although the fact that she and Christine owned Beyonder Ability was not exposed, it still came into the sight of "Spectator" behind the scenes, and this matter has already If it is determined to be related to "Psychology Alchemists", then they must know that Audrey is Beyonder. In this way, the only person whose identity is unclear in the incident is Christine...
"So, the member of the Alchemy Society, Hvin Rambis, took advantage of my meeting with Hampres to implant in me the idea of actively investigating Christine, and used my resources to investigate her, which happened to have the same negative effect as 'Lies' amplifying emotions. The combination of the results led me to be more proactive in digging for 'Empress' Miss, and even after Hypnosis was dismissed by Mr. Fool on Monday, this idea did not subside until it was discovered by Susie..."
It's that Hvin Rambis again. He set a trap to harm Baron Cinderas before, and this time he wants to use me to investigate "Empress" Miss... Audrey thought bitterly and clenched his fists.
Fortunately, with the help of Mr. Fool and Susie, I escaped from Hypnosis and "Lies". Next, it's time for... Great Detective Audrey's counterattack!
Taking a deep breath, Audrey showed a perfect smile in front of the dressing mirror.
Returning to his bedroom from the palace in Gray Fog, Angel first looked around from "Mirror World" as usual, and then breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there was no scary "Spectator" or other Beyonder around him.
The next second, she couldn't help but think of the discussion she had just had with Klein, and thought of... wait!
She forcibly interrupted the thoughts in her mind and began to recall everything related to the battle and her own strength.
It has been two months since I was promoted to Sequence 4. I feel that more than half of the "despair" Potion in my body has been digested. This is abnormally fast, even faster than the "Affliction" period... Of course, with "Iron-Blooded Knight" Sirio Sauron, "" The two battles of Abomination"Suah are related to the despair that plunged them into. According to the previous summary, the higher the target Sequence is chosen to digest Potion, the more obvious the effect, but it is difficult to say whether it has anything to do with the mysterious power of "Demoness" Pathway in me...
The opposite to me is "Lady Despair" Panacea. Part of the reason why she made Great Smog must be to digest the "despair" Potion, and she chose to win by quantity., using the death and despair of a large number of people to help themselves gain power... I don't know which path the other "Demoness" chose. How many of the large plagues in history were created by Demoness for promotion?
Even in the process of being promoted to "Despair", was Demoness limited to his own strength, or did he succumb to the darkness in his heart, replace the ritual of killing Demigod with the Affliction and despair of a large number of ordinary people, successfully subdue Potion, and be promoted to Demigod?
Thinking of this, Angel walked to the balcony and looked at the street below. Sewer manhole covers were lined up along the street, and they were run over by pedestrians and carriages from time to time.
That was the capital sewer system gradually established by the Loen Kingdom after the great plague that occurred in Backlund 12 years ago.
But I, and the Demoness I trained, will not do this... She said solemnly in her heart.
Besides, can Potion be completely digested by the enemy's "despair" alone?
Looking back from the sewer manhole cover, Angel thought of the "desperate" Potion Acting Rule again.
She has already summed up part of the playing method, and used the enemy's despair to digest most of Potion. The next part can refer to the "Affliction" period, which is to let herself fall into real "despair".
It's another problem of grabbing my own hair to lift myself up. If I deliberately create the emotion of "despair", it is impossible to truly fall into despair. On the contrary, true "despair" usually means death, then there is no chance to survive and digest the remaining Potion...
Angel chuckled and did not think about this problem for the time being. After all, the ceremony to be promoted to "Unaging" Demoness was too difficult for her.
"Next, it's Mystical Item... The 'Wings of Death' I own has a miraculous effect on Death, alien species and other Pathway that can control undead creatures, while 'Parasite Gloves' can steal the opponent's key abilities, provided I know his Sequence, otherwise the theft is likely to be random... As for 'Reaper Legion', Beyonder Characteristic paired with 'Iron-Blooded Knight' can strengthen my attack, or share fatal damage, giving me some more life-saving means besides Magic Mirror and Staff Substitution..."
The High Sequence Mystical Item she owned appeared one by one in her mind, while those items that were Sequence lower and almost ineffective against Demigod enemies were ignored.
"It seems that even without other helpers, I can fight against most of Sequence 4's enemies. Even Sequence 3 can last for a long time. Moreover, if I fight him..."
Thinking of this, Angel forcibly interrupted his thoughts to avoid overt hostility from being discovered by Ince Zangwill and the item Sealed Artifact in his hand, and written into the story by them.
Waiting for the news from Klein first, I will just act as a combatant who obeys the arrangement... She laughed self-deprecatingly, and was about to leave the bedroom when she was suddenly surrounded by endless Gray Fog, and a familiar voice came to her ears.
"Dear Mr. Fool, please tell 'Empress' Miss that I have found out the situation of Rose School members around 'Artisan' Sharff. If she can spare time, we can take action tonight."
Is it Mr. "Hanged Man" who stayed at Bayam for two days?
Angel was stunned for a moment, and then a hint of joy rose in his heart.
She has long been unhappy with the people watching "Rose School"!
