The Reason Their True Identity Is Unknown
"..."
That makes sense.
Angel Xian Kui spoke, she pondered carefully, glancing at the Little Sprite and then recalling the Angel: "After all, Angel don't seem to look that different..."
Xiao Cui: "..."
Xian Kui: "..."
Xiao Cui and Xian Kui fell silent simultaneously, both trying to recall the Angel's appearance...
"What do Angel look like again?"
Xiao Cui murmured to herself, while Xian Kui also looked like she was trying hard to recall, but couldn't remember...
Although they had "faced" the angel, now when asked to recall the Angel's appearance, they only feel a blur.
It's as if my memory has been obscured, making it somewhat blurry and unclear.
--
Just as it's impossible to reconcile the face of a magical girl with the face of a magical girl after she turns off her transformation, it seems that people in this timeline are also unable to accurately perceive the appearance of Angel.
However, Cong Yu is an option...
Cong Yu was also able to clearly state that the appearances of Angel are slightly different, although the differences are not significant, they are still there.
Otherwise, if they all looked exactly alike, Cong Yu would have noticed something was wrong long ago.
Just as Little Sprite vary in appearance and size, so too do Angel.
That's about it.
Cong Yu explained it this way, then casually began to talk about something extraordinary. "So, the Angel are Moerae's creations... that's probably undeniable."
"Actually, Moerae said something similar a long time ago when she was just being cheeky. Now it seems she's surprisingly honest..."
Of course, back then, when Moerae was inside Lin Yun's body, he was just being arrogant and confident, saying whatever came to mind and making arbitrary judgments and declarations.
Now, of course, he's mute.
Xian Kui was quite knowledgeable about this issue, and she sighed helplessly, "Even knowing that Angel are spells doesn't make any difference."
"The Angel's primary targets seem to be me and those who 'help humanity with Transformation Ritual '... Ultimately, it's still war."
As he spoke, Xian Kui's eyes revealed his determination to fight...
It feels like she's gradually transforming into someone who's all about "fighting! having fun!", and starting to resemble someone like Etzel.
Or rather, it has moved closer to the thought processes of other Monster King.
This is what's the point of saying all this? We might as well kill him! Just like when Moerae's real name and birth year were exposed before.
However, Cong Yu still likes to investigate these things.
At least for now, Cong Yu felt that this understanding was very useful to him, and the reason was...
"Look."
As she said this, Cong Yu stretched out her hand, seemingly showing something to the two people and the Little Sprite...
However, there was nothing in his palm.
It wasn't until Xian Kui and Xiao Cui stared intently that they were startled to see... the holy white light floating in Cong Yu's hand.
Very small, very few, very faint.
But without a doubt, what Cong Yu summoned at this moment was what he had dismantled the Angel and plundered...
[Divine Power]
"Huh?!"
"Ah?!"
Chapter 735 The Reason for Not Knowing the True Identity
"What is it?"
"Divine Power."
"What?"
"Divine Power."
"What force?"
"..." Under the Doctor's repeated questioning, Cong Yu didn't know whether she should repeat herself... but the only thing she could do was say it.
"Divine Power, oh Divine Power... I used the Angel devoured by the Jormungandr Train to snatch a sliver of divine power from Moerae."
As he spoke, Cong Yu displayed a wisp of holy white mist in his hand and placed it in front of the Doctor.
"Uh... ah..."
The Doctor sighed, clutching her head, "These past few years have brought me more surprises than all of the past combined."
Cong Yu couldn't refute this, nor did he intend to. He simply smiled and reached out to pat the Doctor's head, "Is it a surprise or a shock?"
Regarding this...
"Snap--"
The Doctor patted Cong Yu's hand, combing her hair and rolling her eyes. "Don't touch me. I'm not one of those magical girls, I don't fall for your tricks... probably."
He answered very quietly [probably]
Only then did the Doctor consider Cong Yu's words. "It's probably a pleasant surprise."
It's a pleasant surprise that Cong Yu can grasp some outrageous things... at least Cong Yu is one of our own.
The magical girl beside Cong Yu is the same.
And what Cong Yu had told her before, things like "Fate," "god," and "Moerae"...
There was no doubt that it was terrifying.
The Doctor, who was thinking this, immediately realized something was wrong... Wait, what's the connection between Cong Yu and the magical girl beside her?
When did she, Doctor, start to see things from Cong Yu's perspective and try to understand his situation?!
Hateful!
Cursing himself inwardly for being so useless, the Doctor shifted his attention to the tiny Divine Power divine power in Cong Yu's hand.
"So, what's the use of this 'Divine Power'?"
The Doctor asked this question, and she, leaning very close, began to analyze, hypothesizing. "Enhancement spell? Casting Divine Art? Summoning Angel? Or peeking into Fate?"
Cong Yu's answer to this was simple, "I don't know."
Cong Yu said, spreading his hands. "Anyway, it can't enhance the spell, it can't peek into Fate, and as for whether it can unleash Divine Art..."
Cong Yu, who had been drawing out her words, paused under the Doctor's probing gaze, then asked in return, "Do you know Divine Art?"
Ah, that makes sense.
Cong Yu and the Doctor, and indeed everyone in the world, had absolutely no idea how to unleash Divine Art.
It would be asking too much of Cong Yu to figure it out on his own.
Therefore, it's understandable that we don't know if Divine Power can be used to unleash Divine Art... although logically speaking, it should be possible.
However, given the rigorous approach of researchers, Doctor can only classify it as an unknown for the time being.
However, after a moment's thought, the Doctor realized that he had thought of someone who could use Divine Art.
"Wait, didn't Miss Lin from China work for Moerae before? She should know how to use the Divine Art that destroyed Mexico, right?"
The Doctor asked Cong Yu, who was scrolling through her phone, but Cong Yu didn't turn her head. "No, she won't."
No? Is it because you haven't been exposed to the inner circle of Moerae believers?
But the Doctor remembered that Lin should have been a divine messenger.
"Followers of Moerae did was cast a large barrier to help Moerae locate himself."
As Cong Yu spoke, she withdrew the faintly growing Divine Power in her hand. "Only Moerae knows Divine Art."
Even if Cong Yu tried to imitate him, he couldn't make the Divine Power in his hands exhibit the extremely fiery nature of Moerae's attacks.
The Divine Power that Cong Yu withheld could do nothing but provide light, and even that was difficult... because it was barely bright.
"Fine... then it's ultimately useless."
The Doctor shrugged, abandoning any attempt to analyze or study the Divine Power: "You just came here to tell me about this... right?"
Yes, that's Cong Yu's purpose.
Otherwise, like before, they'd have a long and complicated Fate's List before finally telling the Doctor about it and asking her to help resolve Hong's crisis... That would be really strange.
It's best to share information beforehand.
While the two were chatting idly, footsteps suddenly came from outside the Doctor's office.
Then...
"Bang!"
"Doctor! I'm here!"
Nagashima Koki, carrying her little schoolbag, kicked open the office door and saw Cong Yu chatting with someone. "Handsome brother is here too?"
After saying this, Nagashima Koki thought for a moment, and under the gaze of the two, tossed her schoolbag onto the chair.
Then, after thinking for a moment, Nagashima Koki excitedly raised her hand. "Handsome brother, I'm reporting that Xiao Cui skipped school today!"
Indeed, Cong Yu had just returned from China with Xiao Cui half an hour ago, so Xiao Cui obviously didn't go to school today.
The funny part is--
Cong Yu didn't go to school either, Cong Yu did it all!
"You even reported it?"
Cong Yu laughed, ruffling Nagashima Koki's hair. "I was the one who took Xiao Cui out, and I didn't go to school today either."
Nagashima Koki, furious but unable to speak out, straightened her hair, her puffed-out cheeks resembling those of a pufferfish.
Oh, so it was the handsome older brother who corrupted Xiao Cui.
Nagashima Koki decides to find an opportunity to report Cong Yu and Xiao Cui to Yaochuan Guang's older sister...
"Hehehe--"
With that clearly malicious laugh, Nagashima Koki leaned back in her chair and started scrolling through her phone.
Then I immediately saw a lot of videos related to Cong Yu.
The videos are mostly tagged with keywords like "King of the Wind City", "China", "Angel", "Immortal King", and "Immortal King of the Wind City".
"Handsome guy, you're trending again..."
As Xiao Cui said this, she unabashedly sat down on her schoolbag, which contained her unfinished homework. "There are so many videos about you lately--"
After all, Cong Yu has been very active lately.
And it's mostly for humanity, fighting against Moerae... The masses have discerning eyes and can see Cong Yu's contributions.
They were clearly doing great good deeds, yet those who publish books in China have fabricated them into some kind of "great evil," which is utter nonsense!
However, Cong Yu never holds grudges.
It just meant that the Xian Kui arrested them and deducted a few months' worth of performance bonuses.
(The author of the book: Waaaaa QAQ--)
"The trending topic here is 'The second phase of the Transformation Ritual is now open for recruitment across the entire network'... I'm sure Angel will attack it again, what a nuisance."
Upon hearing Cong Yu's words, the Doctor glanced at him and asked, "So, are you going to China again? To absorb more Divine Power and bring it back?"
I don't know what it's for, but it's always good to save up some.
That's true, but...
"I actually tried it."
