"... Next, the matter of Tingen will be left to you."
Adam, who had blond hair and a golden beard, said slowly, with a soft tone, as if he was facing an old friend.
The black-haired woman next to him nodded slightly and replied:
"'Sefirah Castle' will ignore this memory modification, but only this time. If it is not necessary, do not have contact with her in the future."
"I understand," Adam chuckled, but his eyes were very calm and did not contain a smile, "Then, this story begins here."
He finished his last words in an aria, and his figure faded away and disappeared into the basement, as if he had never happened before.
"Mother of the Sky" looked away and took one last look at the young woman on the floor. The outline of her body in a black robe disappeared as if it had been erased by an eraser.
This was not the first time that Angel came to the basement where she "traveled" from a third person's perspective. When she was promoted but was on the verge of losing control after taking Potion, and when Adam "awakened" her memory, she saw this male and female figure. Among them, she already knew the identity of Adam, but this time she could really see the appearance of the female figure and confirm the identity of the other party.
According to her and Klein's guess, "Mother of the Sky" who can move around freely is equivalent to Evernight Goddess... This means that Adam did cooperate with Goddess to a certain extent, and also modified his own memory!
That's why I easily came into contact with Goddess Church after "travelling" and strengthened my faith in prayer... So Nighthawks had an almost undefended attitude towards me internally. Even when I first came to this world, I was awarded "" Goddess Shadow"... So with the help of Mr. "Fool", I recalled the appearance of Adam that I saw in Enmat Harbor, and tried to pray to Goddess for help, but what I got was a blank manuscript paper...
Are these all because I have forgotten certain memories?
Wait, Goddess just said, "'Sefirah Castle' will ignore this modification"... What about "other times"?
Angel suddenly thought that the first time he realized that "Spectator" Pathway could remember Tampering was because of the convening of "Tarot Club" and because he came to the country of Mr. "Fool", the palace full of Gray Fog.
Where is "Sefirah Castle"? Will the God of "Fool" spontaneously eliminate the power of "Spectator"? But due to some method of Goddess, even "Sefirah Castle" cannot restore my memory of being Adam Tampering...
Is it because Goddess cooperates with Adam and "Fool" in this regard?
Just as she realized something, the picture in front of her changed again. This time, it was various scenes she was more familiar with, including the dog taking the mouse in the "Wild Heart" bar, Saint Samuel Cathedral's prayer and response, her first encounter with Klein, joining Nighthawks...
Nighthawks lived in Tingen, was plotted by "0-08" and Ince Zangwill, changed his identity after "death", and went to Backlund; reacquainted himself with Klein who became Sherlock Moriarty, and jointly stopped Demoness Sect The conspiracy with Aurora Order; going to the sea hand in hand to seek the hope of promotion, but accidentally leaving his name on the bounty list; in order to trace the traces of Ince Zangwill, he returned to Backlund and became a member of the upper class who spends money like water, wandering around in singing, dancing and banquets, and at the same time he has to solve all kinds of troubles in the extraordinary world...
The memories of this year seem to be more vivid and distinct than Angel's life in the past few decades, and are more deeply imprinted on my mind.
Compared with the memories of Old Era that seem to be from the previous life, compared with those memories that were tampered with by Adam, this year is the "reality" that belongs to me... Looking at the familiar scenes, Angel burst into tears at some point.
She knew that with her body in "City of Calamity" as evidence, the memory of her "last life" should be correct, but she could not view the two equally perceptually.
This "loophole" in her thoughts allowed her to gradually penetrate deeper into the black mist below, surrounded by different pictures. The cold touch spread from her feet upwards to her thighs and waist, and was about to swallow her up.
Memory... memory is the key point, I need to use them to prevent myself from continuing to "sink"!
Angel came to a realization and tried to calm down and "accept" her memories from this year again, but they became increasingly blurry and immersed in the surrounding black fog, making it impossible for her to touch them.
Just as Angel sank deeper and deeper into the black mist, and her whole body gradually became cold, a warm current emerged from her right hand, dispelling the coldness on her body, allowing her to struggle in the black mist again, grasping the memory that was about to dissipate - the memory of when she was still called "Angel Gray".
Using this as Anchor, Angel stabilized herself again, and the fresh or ancient memories around her gradually emerged and became connected with her. More and more "Anchor" allowed her to float steadily in the black mist, and she understood in her heart the role of the ceremony to be promoted to "Unaging".
It requires Demoness who is preparing to be promoted to accumulate enough memories to stabilize Spirit Body in the promotion process, and it also requires Demoness to be able to treat the memories of each time equally, not to favor one over another because of the difference in time, and to self-destruct "Anchor".
Therefore, the ceremony requires that after a long period of time, Potion should be taken with a different mentality than age... While ensuring the safety of promotion, it can also lay the foundation for "Unaging" Demoness's life that may last for thousands of years, and point out a path to maintain their own stability, so as to prevent them from losing themselves in the long life and eventually losing control.
In this way, I thought that I had existed unconsciously in "City of Calamity" for so many years as a basis to meet the requirements of the ceremony through clever tricks, but it ran counter to the essence of the ceremony... Angel had a lot of thoughts in her mind. Although she was prepared to fail in promotion before trying, she did not expect that her experience as "Anchor" would not be of any use in the ceremony.
For ordinary "desperation" Demoness, this stage is the best to pass. As long as you accumulate enough memories, take Potion with a young and healthy mentality, and use these profound memories to stabilize yourself, you can successfully be promoted. If I hadn't been reminded and helped just now, I should have fallen into that black mist and been lost in it...
Angel clenched her right fist with some fear. She believed that Klein who was waiting aside just now must have given her the greatest support.
Of course, Angel feels that her deduction may not be completely correct. It took her one year to go from Sequence 9 to the threshold of Sequence 3. The various events she experienced and the important moments she spent were beyond the reach of ordinary Beyonder. In a sense, this can be regarded as providing a lot of "Anchor" to stabilize herself and prevent her from overturning in an instant.
Surrounded by many memories, the chill in Angel's body gradually faded away. Her eyes lingered on the scenes, and they were deeply imprinted in her mind again. She felt the new power in her body slowly merge with Aether Body, Spirit Body, Spirit Body, and became silent deep in her body.
Only now did she confirm that she had completed the promotion and became "Unaging" Demoness of Sequence 3.
Close your eyes, wait for your condition to stabilize slightly, then Angel opens your eyes again.
What appeared in front of him was not the master bedroom on the third floor of Dantès's house, nor was it Klein with a concerned face, but "City of Calamity" with Earth Mother burning, the sky shattering, and looking at city streets of different styles.
Sure enough, after being promoted, I came here again... Angel was not too surprised. She had experienced this kind of thing many times.
But this time, she noticed something was different.
Compared with the previous few times she entered here, Angel felt that the Spirituality in her body was quite abundant and could be used. This may be related to the stabilization of her condition after promotion, but she suspected that it had more to do with Sequence's improvement.
"This means that I have more 'authority', I can keep Spirituality, and even my own Beyonder Ability can enter here..."
She muttered and looked at the street beside her, staring at the dark corner. Sure enough, her "Dark Vision" also took effect normally.
Perhaps this means that I can explore the city more efficiently. The combination of invisible threads and Feather Fall can bypass places that I cannot enter. More abundant Spirituality means longer exploration time...
After assessing the risk in her mind, she decided to leave here first and return to reality. After getting familiar with "Unaging" Demoness and Beyonder Ability, she would then look for opportunities to enter here and explore more deeply.
"Then, see you next time, 'City of Calamity'..."
Angel muttered, turned around, and prepared to find the only exit she had confirmed so far: entering the deep pit here for the first time.
Behind her stood a figure of the same height as her.
In Dark Vision, the figure has long pale golden hair and Deep Purple eyes. She has a beautiful face and an elegant figure. She is wearing a set of clothes that are easy to move around. There are several traces of battle on the clothes, but it cannot hide her noble and elegant temperament.
She is also Angel Granger.
"Hello," another Angel spoke, the familiar tone seemed to come from her own mouth, "Angel Granger, I am your Mirror Person."
Böklund Street No. 160, Dantès Residence In the master bedroom on the third floor.
Klein turned the pendulum in his hand anxiously. The clockwise rotating amethyst told him that Angel's promotion was currently normal and very safe, but he still couldn't Persuasion sit down and wait for the other party to wake up.
If he hadn't been worried that Angel might see him frozen in a weird posture, he would have taken four steps backwards and entered Gray Fog for more effective divination.
He turned around in Wall of Spirituality uneasily, wanting to touch Angel, but he didn't dare to disturb her in the process of being promoted.
Looking at Angel who stood motionless after raising his glass to "drink" Potion, Klein cautiously and hesitantly opened Spirit Body Threads's vision, carefully counting the black lines spreading from Angel's body to the surroundings, and after confirming that it was correct, he breathed a sigh of relief again.
"What am I doing... do I really listen to Angel and turn her into Marionette before she fails in promotion and loses control and becomes a monster?"
He muttered, and was about to turn off Spirit Body Threads's vision when he suddenly found that the black lines in front of him were curling up, as if they were being pulled by someone, pointing to the full-length mirror closest to Angel.
Then, they all disappeared.
Wow——
Right in front of Klein, Angel shattered into pieces of crystal mirror fragments with a crisp sound, as if they were weightless.
