He Really Became a Demigod!

"I can't do it."

[The Hanged Man] Alger decisively replied, "That Artisan is only at Sequence 6 level; he simply cannot handle extraordinary materials of Demigod level. Even if there were a one in ten thousand chance of successfully crafting it, the side effects would be too great to use."

"Oh well."

Luther Ze hadn't held out much hope; he'd only asked casually.

Let's keep it for now and consult the Queen later. She has so many Beyonder Item in her treasury, and her own father is a high-level extraordinary person through the Paragon Pathway, so he must know some reliable Artisan.

"[Temperance] Sir, are you sure this Demigod is from the Order of Reason?"

Meanwhile, on the other side, [Justice] Audrey finally composed herself and asked seriously.

"At least that's what he said."

Luther replied calmly, "Moreover, the various signs he's exhibited match those of the higher-ups in the Psychology Alchemists I've met before."

Whether it's the president of the Psychology Alchemists or the high- Council, this organization seems to harbor malice towards him... The reason for all this may be related to the existence that is watching him from behind the scenes.

".. OK."

[Justice] Audrey sensed the emotion in Luther's tone and didn't press the matter further. Although she was also a member of the Psychology Alchemists, to be honest, the organization was mysterious and unpredictable, and she didn't know its specific structure and purpose.

Regarding the scene at the time...

[The Hanged Man] Alger paused for a moment, then continued, "I heard that many people on Toscarter Island saw a black knight kill the Dragon in mid-air, causing it to fall..."

Of everyone present, only [Moon] and [The Hermit], who joined later, understood what he meant.

Because Luther had publicly offered to buy it, they all knew that the Sequence 4 of the Secrets Suppliant Pathway was called "Black Knight".

The description of the Hanged Man clearly leans towards that direction.

"That's right, I've been promoted to Sequence 4."

Luther said calmly.

Above the Gray Fog, the air fell silent for a few seconds.

Even though it was somewhat expected, everyone was still inevitably shocked after hearing Temperance admit it himself.

After all, that's Demigod!

From this Sequence onward, the extraordinary beings begin to gradually break free from the shackles of humanity and advance towards higher forms of life.

In major Church and underground organizations, Demigod are already considered high-ranking members!

And at that moment, they witnessed the birth of a Demigod!

"I have something to ask you."

In the strange and silent atmosphere, Luther looked at [Sun] Derrick beside him, "How is Elder Lovia doing now? Has she successfully advanced?"

The Black Knight's Advancement Ritual requires the Degeneration of at least ten thousand people, which is far beyond the reach of City of Silver's sparse population. He was very curious about how they would solve this problem.

"She hasn't been promoted yet, but recently the Chief Your Excellency often accompanied her, leading teams out of the city to capture Monster alive," [Sun] Derrick replied truthfully. "I guess they might be using Monster as substitutes."

Monster? That makes sense. As the target's Sequence increases, the required number decreases... Luther for a moment, feeling that the other party was taking advantage of the special environment of the Forsaken Land of the Gods. After all, if it were on the Northern Continent, there wouldn't be so many Monsters for them to capture.

Please keep an eye on her for me.

Luther said, "From the 'pilgrimage' murals left by Ouroboros, we can infer that there may be a 'Sanctuary' of the True Creator deep within the 'Forsaken Land of the Gods.' By observing the behavior of this elder of City of Silver, we may be able to learn about the True Creator from the side."

"OK."

[Sun] Derrick wasn't sure of Luther's intentions, but he still earnestly agreed, "I'll keep an eye out whenever I have time." "Okay, thank you."

Luther leaned back slightly in his chair. He had nothing more to say and was ready to listen to what other news he had.

After that, [Justice] Audrey shared her journey into the depths of the collective Consciousness through "Psychological Suggestion," and [The Moon] Emlyn refuted [The Sun]'s earlier account of the City of Silver documents with the history of the "Sanguine," leading to an argument between the two.

At this moment, [World] Klein, who had been relatively inactive throughout the meeting, spoke up.

Does anyone know her?

By performing a charade with his true self, he materialized a photograph of a red-haired girl and showed it to everyone. This was a reward he had heard about after arriving in Bayam, the "Generous City," for a girl named "Helene."

He mainly wanted to see if Alger Hanged Man and Hermit the Cattleya knew each other, since both of them had a lot of information about the sea.

"Red-haired Elaine, of the Intissoren family lineage, a fallen noblewoman."

After clearly identifying the Hermit, the hermit spoke calmly.

She paused slightly, then added, "She used to be a maritime merchant, but it's said she was later captured by 'Ailment Maiden'... who is now 'Vice Admiral of Ailment' Tracy."

Luther immediately raised his head.

Vice Admiral of Ailment?

What a coincidence, I was just about to cause her trouble!

Sonia Sea, Rorsted Archipelago.

Located in the middle of the Ocean, this archipelago serves as a hub connecting various islands, with countless ships passing through daily. It is renowned for its abundant spices and minerals. Blue Mountain Island, where the capital Bayam is located, occupies more than half of the archipelago's land area. Its soil is fertile and its forests are highly covered. The early colonists believed this to be a gift from the gods, so they built a city on the island and named it "Generous City."

Through generations of development, Bayam has become a city with agriculture, mining, and other industries at its core.

Every day, countless ships dock here, carrying away piles of spices, gold, silver, copper, iron, and coal to supply the development of the Loen region.

This island "generously" nourished the Loen Kingdom, but it's unknown how it benefited the local natives.

When they hunched over digging in the plantations, their thin, calloused bodies selling smiles in the Moulin Rouge, crawling like dogs through narrow mines until their last drop of blood and sweat was drained, could they also share in this "generosity"?

The people of Loen didn't care; they were more interested in tasting the rare spices and fruits and praising the beautiful scenery of Bayam.

The natives didn't seem to care either; they were more concerned with how to survive tomorrow.

As for Governor Bayam, he cared even less. More than the lives of those "barbarians," he was concerned about how to get these two important figures of the kingdom to get along peacefully.

"Two people, two people."

Governor George Negan of the Rorsted Archipelago, sweat beading on his balding forehead, said with a forced smile, "How about we have a drink first?"

The long table was laden with a sumptuous meal, and Admiral Amyrius Levitt was with Qonas, the Deputy Director of MI9.

Kilgor stood across the table, his expression cold.
