As the Red Angel Evil Spirit and Death Salinger began their battle.
Near a shoal by a tributary of the River of Eternal Darkness, there was a mirror someone had left behind.
The mirror's surface suddenly became deep and shadowy, and then a figure was projected from within it.
Sifa!
Using Mirror Illusion, he projected himself over, then arranged a ritual, prayed to Mr. Fool, and received a golden bird-shaped ornament.
It was an item that could be used to collect river water.
Sifa glanced at the two enormous figures battling in the distance, a faint smile curling across his lips.
Over the past few days,
he had first used the information Jorgi had provided about the Numinous Episcopate
to lock onto a target.
Next, he found Freeman. This had not been difficult.
Freeman desperately needed a vessel, a Gatekeeper to contain herself.
So Sifa gave her a Gatekeeper—a Gatekeeper from the Numinous Episcopate.
After Freeman possessed it, Sifa used Death's Scepter to completely turn the Evil Spirit into the scepter's servant.
The rest was simple.
Through the Numinous Episcopate, word of Freeman's activity as an Evil Spirit reached the Red Angel Evil Spirit.
Then Freeman deliberately allowed herself to be captured by the Red Angel Evil Spirit.
After giving it vague information, but information sufficient to provoke associations,
Sifa deliberately "silenced her."
Though this play had taken place in the Spirit World, Sifa believed the Red Angel Evil Spirit would definitely have seen it.
As a fellow Conspirer,
Sifa believed that, under the Red Angel Evil Spirit's circumstances,
it definitely would not readily trust Freeman.
It would surely keep watch in secret.
Thus, the Red Angel Evil Spirit would see the performance Sifa had prepared for it.
Next,
Sifa went to Calderón City to meet up with Klein.
