"He hides deep within my Spirit Body, and you cannot hear his voice," Leonard explained. "To communicate with you directly, I must relinquish control of my body and allow him complete control over me."

But Leonard certainly wouldn't want to do that.

"However, there are still indirect methods besides these."

He quickly added, snapping his fingers.

"Call--"

A sudden, biting wind swept through the living room, as if something had drifted in.

Luther squinted and saw that it was an illusory Spirit Body, inside which coiled a dimly colored, semi-transparent "Worm of Time".

This is... Avatar manipulated by Pallez?

A cold wind howled, blowing several sheets of white paper and a pen onto the table. The pen floated up and, under the influence of the Spirit Body, began to write ancient Jotun characters on the paper:

"Let me make this clear beforehand: if you want to discuss dangerous topics with me, I'd rather not."

His words were full of decisiveness.

Dangerous topic... oh, I guess it refers to something sensitive like the "Primordial Moon" or the Tide within me... Luther guessed.

He had previously encountered problems asking these related questions to the Magic Mirror Arrodes and "Snake of Mercury" Will; one of them exploded, and the other refused to even see him.

"Don't worry, it won't be that extreme."

Luther shook his head and said, "What I really want to ask is about the owner of these insects... and his brother."

Amon's brother is naturally Adam, but casually mentioning the name of this "Angel of Imagination" would easily be discovered by Him, so Luther could only use this indirect method.

"Pallez"Your Excellency

He continued, "Do you know that person first?"

Pallez comes from the Fourth Epoch, when the gods could still walk among humans. In that era, the Black Emperor Solomon cooperated with the True Creator, and many Angel families became great noble families, including Amon.

However, the name of this brother, Amon, does not appear in historical records.

The pen paused on the paper for a while before slowly beginning to write:

"To say whether I know Him or not, of course I do... but in that era, I didn't know much about Him. My great-grandfather, however, had seen His appearance in person..."

"Is the lack of understanding because He didn't join the Solomon Empire and become a high-ranking noble?" Luther asked.

"That's one reason."

Pallez manipulated his pen, scribbling lines of text on the paper. "He was quite resistant to the attitude of the True Creator, so he did not join the Solomon Empire, which was supported by the True Creator... but he remained neutral and did not stand with the Seven Gods."

What impression do you have of Him?

Luther continued to ask.

"Hidden, quiet, with a faint presence, determined to achieve what he sets his mind to... Sometimes, only after many significant events have concluded do people realize that he was the one who secretly orchestrated everything."

It can only be said that it perfectly matches the characteristics of the "Spectator"...

"Was He trying to guide the tide of the times back then?" Luther frowned. "Your Excellency, do you know why He would do that?"

"..."

As soon as he asked the question, the pen stopped immediately. Its nib pressed against the paper, leaving a large black outline.

Pallez seemed to be hesitating whether he should answer the question.

A moment later, the pen moved again. "If I answer this question, you'll owe me a favor."

"No problem."

Luther readily agreed.

Since it's a transaction with a clearly stated price, he can accept it, which suggests the answer is quite valuable. However, it's worth considering that Pallez, as Sequence 1 Angel, also values a Sequence 3 favor so much...

So the pen continued writing:

Have you heard of the second "Blasphemy Slate"?

Instead of answering Luther's question immediately, Pallez asked them in return.

"... Know."

Luther and Klein exchanged a glance and nodded simultaneously.

"The second one?"

Leonard across from him looked bewildered.

Pallez ignored Leonard and continued, "My great-grandfather was nearby when the second 'Blasphemy Slate' was created, and he had the privilege of reading one of the Pathway, as well as the incomplete Pathway of the others."

Unfortunately, just as he was trying to gather more information, the blond priest appeared and took the Blasphemy Slate away.

Paris wrote.

Upon seeing this, Klein couldn't help but nod.

That matches up! This is the "Blasphemy Slate" mentioned in Roselle's Diary, held by the Twilight Hermit Order... and the person who hosted that gathering was indeed Adam...

Pallez continued writing below:

"The complete set of Pathway my great-grandfather remembered was naturally the 'Marauder' pathway. Among the other Pathway he didn't fully master was the 'Spectator' Pathway, which included the King of Angel."

According to him, the "Spectator" Pathway Sequence 0 is called "Visionary," and the Ritual required for advancement is to align the development of the times with one's own expectations, and then, at a crucial juncture, within the prescribed trend of the era, consume Potion...

Luther looked down at the line of text, his expression gradually freezing.

Propelling the tides of time, used for advancement... like Backlund's reforms against smog, like the current war between Loen and Feysac?

In other words, was Adam behind all of these events?

"So He did all this in order to ascend to Sequence 0 and become True God..." Please remember the only website for this novel: www. deqixs. org. The website owner has only this one website; other websites may be discontinued at any time.

Luther said softly.

"Yes and no."

Pallez offered a different answer, "It should be said that this is merely His means. Judging from the doctrines He has consistently proclaimed, the ultimate goal of all He has done is to bring the Creator back to Earth."

In other words, Adam wanted to find his father...

As Klein read the words, a chill ran down his spine.

He recalled the description in Roselle's Diary, where Adam stayed in that small church, persistently praying to the Creator of the City of Silver who had long since fallen, believing that He would eventually return. This obsession was truly terrifying.

"If that's the case, then He's close to success."

Klein said hesitantly, "War is about to engulf the entire world. If He is behind all of this, He will soon be able to try drinking the Potion and ascending to immortality..."

The war between Loen and Feysac is becoming increasingly protracted, and other countries are also stirring. Intis has begun to amass troops, and smaller countries like Lenburg are also mobilizing their men. The world is moving in the direction it envisioned.

"Awesome!"

Luther coldly praised, "His methods are far more sophisticated George III's." Therefore, the Psychology Alchemists's support for the Royal Family, in essence, is also for the benefit of their superiors...

In the end, it was the ordinary people caught up in the war who were the most pitiful.
