After hearing the Old Man's words, Leonard immediately relaxed a lot.
He turned his attention back to the Angel -level battle that had taken place that afternoon and asked with considerable curiosity:
"Which Angel does that Serpent phantom belong to?"
Pallez Zoroast paused for a moment, then sighed and said:
"' Snake of Fate ', Speaker of the School of Life, Angel of Sequence 1."
"I never expected that He would join them..."
The Speaker of the School of Life? He has also become Blessed of Mr. The Fool? The corresponding Tarot card is " The Wheel of Fortune "? Leonard's eyes widened slightly, increasingly feeling that Mr. The Fool's power was comparable to the seven major orthodox churches, and was immeasurably profound.
" Death Consul "... " Snake of Fate "... " The Incomplete Messenger "... There are already three Angel under the command of " The Fool "... No wonder Klein became Demigod so quickly... It hasn't been long, and I'm already involved in battles at the Angel level. What will happen in the future is simply unimaginable... Leonard took the letter and sat on the sofa, feeling even more anxious about digesting the " Spirit Warlock " Potion and advancing to " Spirit Warlock ".
He had been busy Placate the spirits in the Backlund region, but due to the large number of tasks, there was still a long way to go before completion. He couldn't find an opportunity or excuse to Stealing the power of the drop of " Eternal Blazing Sun " blood from Tingen City. The arrival of Amon's clone was much faster than he had expected.
Bridge South Borough, on Rose Street, inside the Harvest Church.
Emlyn White, now dressed in a brown priest's robe, stood beside the long table where the candlesticks were placed, watching Ernes Boyar. He raised his right hand and casually pointed, saying:
"The side and left side weren't cleaned properly."
Ernes Boyar, also dressed in the robes of a " Earth Mother " priest, glared angrily at Emlyn, but still obeyed orders and re-cleaned the area that had been somewhat perfunctory earlier.
"I know you're angry, just like when I found out you sold me information about the castle but deliberately withheld crucial details," Leonard said with a smile, completely unconcerned by the other's gaze. "Also, I forgot to tell you something: I'm Viscount now, just last week."
The Sanguine Viscount Scarlet Scholar, the Sequence 5 of the " The Moon " pathway, is a vampire viscount. One of the conditions for the ascension ceremony is to be under the Full Moon. In addition to this, one must also collect enough metals, gems, and the blood of extraordinary creatures representing different the Moon states, making it quite complicated.
However, Emlyn had already received a promise from the Sanguine high command to hold a ceremony for him free of charge, and he successfully completed his promotion as soon as the Full Moon arrived.
As for the " Potion Professor " knowledge, he felt that he had already succeeded without putting in much effort, because he often taught herbalism to willing common believers at the Harvest Church, and even some special Potion combinations. In addition to collecting Marionette, studying history, and doing volunteer work at the church, he also enjoyed figuring out various Potion for use in different battle scenarios.
"... You're Viscount now?" Ernes Boyar suddenly stood up straight, looking completely astonished.
Within the Sanguine, because they are all long-lived beings, the total population is quite large, while the number of those with Beyonder Characteristic is limited. Advancement in rank is extremely difficult, requiring a long waiting list. Emlyn White, has only been Baron for about six months!
Ernes remembered that it took him a full sixty years to rise from Baron to Viscount, and that was because his father was attacked by artificial Vampire and died prematurely, leaving behind an inheritance.
"Of course." Emlyn's smile widened slightly, but he remained reserved. "I obtained a Sequence 5 Beyonder Characteristic from an artificial Vampire."
Ernes Boyar looked at Emlyn, momentarily speechless, as if he had suffered a blow heavier than becoming a volunteer at Harvest Church.
"Your expression is quite amusing." Emlyn clicked his tongue. "Perhaps one day you'll have to call me Your Excellency the Earl."
"Arrogant! Boastful!" Ernes blurted out.
I've been very modest; I didn't say I wanted to become a duke, or even a prince... How can I become the savior of the Sanguine without reaching the Angel level? Besides, within our Tarot Club, Mr. "The World" has already ascended to Demigod, and Ms. " The Hermit " will be close behind. This will definitely be a gathering of Demigod in the future... Emlyn smiled, unlike his usual argument with Ernes, adopting an attitude that Ernest's words were not worth refuting.
Of course, he also understood that the racial advantages of Sanguine would disappear after the " Scarlet Scholar " stage, and becoming an earl would be no less difficult than an artificial Vampire becoming a " Warlock King ".
The " Scarlet Scholar " Potion is relatively easy to digest; all it takes is a devout love for the Moon, worship of the Moon, and study of the Moon —something most Sanguine do regularly... However, the corresponding rituals are in the hands of the Demigod. Without their permission, even if I could obtain the Beyonder Characteristic of the " Warlock King " from the " The Sun," I still wouldn't become an earl... Emlyn may be arrogant, but he is very clear about what the path ahead will be like.
The Scarlet Scholar's core abilities are twofold. First, they can create an environment favorable to themselves. When the enemy is not skilled in Spirituality or anything related to the Spirit World, they can create a " Full Moon " effect; otherwise, they can make the Moon in that area disappear. Second, they can gain the ability Blink Blink and become Moonlight Transformation within a certain range illuminated by Moonlight. Even if they are destroyed, they can Reorganization in the Moonlight.
The strength of these abilities depends on the " Scarlet Scholar's " understanding and research into the " The Moon " domain.
As for the increased power of dark magic, the enhanced effects of Potion, and the gain of resistance to Nightmare- like influences, these are secondary benefits.
Ernes was enraged by Emlyn's attitude and was about to speak again when he saw the mountain-like, Half-Giant bishop Utravsky emerge from the back of the church.
He quickly bent down, lowered his head, and continued cleaning the altar.
Emlyn White also picked up a rag and candlestick and skillfully wiped the surface.
In the quiet atmosphere, he thought of something: if he left the Harvest Church now, would the Sanguine higher-ups make him hand over the magical items or extraordinary tools he had obtained from Ernes?
Well... if they ask, I really can't refuse, because some items don't belong to Ernes anyway... Emlyn thought about it seriously and decided to go back to his room later to set up a ritual to sacrifice the spoils he had obtained to Mr. " The Fool," and then share them with the members such as " The Star " and " Justice."
Well, the " Rose's Vow " ring doesn't require a sacrifice. This is just one of them. Whoever gets it will be discovered and identified by the holder of the other ring... Consider it my spoils of war. I'll hand it over to Marquis Nibes tonight, and I should be able to get a reward in return... As for the rest, I won't participate in the distribution... Emlyn quickly came up with a more specific plan.
As for whether the Sanguine high command would be angry and hold a grudge against him, he wasn't too worried, because when he submitted the " Rose's Vow " ring, he would also mention that important members of the Temperance Faction of the Rose School of Thought were seeking cooperation.
This happened last week. Emlyn wanted to tell the Sanguine' higher-ups about it, but during a small gathering, the " The Hanged Man " suggested that he wait until the punishment was over before doing so, in order to demonstrate his importance and resolve his hidden anger and resentment.
A slap with a stick, then a carrot? At this moment, Emlyn suddenly had a deeper understanding of this suggestion.
160 Böklund Street, in Dawn Dantès ' bedroom.
Their spoils this time are quite good: a diamond brooch to boost energy, maintain clarity, and counteract mental influences; a Paper Figurine Substitute that can protect against fatal injuries and Spirit Piercing; a belt to reduce damage from " the Sun " and "lightning"; and a wallet containing over 300 pounds in cash... Klein, who had just returned to the real world after receiving the sacrifice, sighed silently for a few moments, sat down at his desk, and took out a transparent worm.
Upon seeing the insect, he felt a headache coming on, recalling the pain of his Spirit Body being torn apart.
This is a " Worm of Spirit " that he split off from himself, used to create a reward for " Snake of Fate " Will Auceptin.
He already had an idea on how to replicate the item that briefly restored the opponent's strength: using the " Worm of Spirit " as a carrier, he would use the complete symbols he had copied last time to trigger a response from the mysterious space above the Gray Fog.
His Divination indicated that things would go relatively smoothly.
"The essence of that item is actually one of the abilities of the ' Scholar of Yore ' pathway Sequence 3: the ' Seer' —to temporarily borrow a portion of power from history, from one's past self... I'll respond as the ' The Fool,' so there shouldn't be any problem..."
"The only problem is that the corresponding symbols are three-dimensional, mysterious, complex, and dangerous, and cannot be directly engraved on various thin metal sheets... According to Will Auceptin, one must use Cogitation to drive Spirituality and directly sketch them on the ' Worm of Spirit '..."
"If I succeed, I'll also make one for myself, to see what I looked like in the past, to see if it goes back to when Klein Moretti was a child, or to the 'cocoon' hanging on the Door of Light... If it's the latter, it would be best to be able to determine how many years it has been hanging..." Klein entered Cogitation state thoughtfully, and then kept sketching symbols in his mind, in order to guide the Spirituality to reproduce this process outside, and to penetrate into the " Worm of Spirit ".
This is a complex and difficult task; one wrong move and you could fail.
One by one, invisible symbols fell and were added to the " Worm of Spirit ". Suddenly, Klein's body trembled slightly, and the " Worm of Spirit " spontaneously combusted and turned into ashes.
Looking at his empty palm, Klein felt a headache coming on. He remained silent for a long time before finally muttering to himself:
Life is really tough...
