1087 The Deities Attitudes (2/2)
”Of course, during this process, we cannot eliminate the possibility that a certain existence might want to do some damage, but it will not be so direct and obvious, because it will definitely be stopped by the other deities.
”If it wasn't because he knew of 'Them' taking such attitudes, how could George III dare take the risk?
”Alright, now that the war has broken out, he has overcome the crisis. He can wait for the next opportunity.”
At that moment, Klein thought of the news that had been leaked out during the operation launched at the Blood Emperor ruins. He was momentarily unsure if he should suspect that the upper echelons of the three Churches had a member of the ancient secret organization, or that a certain deity had personally reminded Amon's brother. And if it were the latter, the suspect was undoubtedly not the Lord of Storms.
After a moment of silence, Klein hesitantly asked, ”So, as long as nothing goes wrong, George III will carry out the ritual to become a god, despite everything that he has done? And if everything goes smoothly and he survives the backlash from the potion, will he ascend to the throne of Black Emperor?”
The Red Angel evil spirit replied in a relaxed tone, ”Is there a problem?”
”Why would the seven deities...” Klein couldn't help but ask.
The Red Angel evil spirit tsked and said, ”Do you want to know? If you want to know, I can tell you now.”
Just as he was about to say ”of course,” Klein suddenly recalled the warning that Ma'am Arianna had given him.
There are some things that make it easier to be 'infected' the more you know. Both your body and soul will be infected. Once you become an angel, you can seek out the exact answer.”
As these thoughts flashed through his mind, Klein made his marionette smile.
”Forget it then.”
Very good. You nearly died out of curiosity and foolishness.” The Red Angel evil spirit shook ”His” head regretfully.
”He” then looked out the window and said, ”If there's nothing else, you may leave.”
”Alright.” Klein made the marionette stand up and raise his right hand.
At this moment, the half-slumped Red Angel evil spirit suddenly asked, ”I have this nagging feeling that if I had attacked you just now, you wouldn't be completely helpless, am I right?”
Of course, why do you think I chose Flaming Jump instead of ”Teleporting”? That was to hide the burning of the paper crane in my wallet! This way, Snake of Fate Will Auceptin丨s gaze would silently land on me. If anything h叩 would use the Yesterday Once More charm... To ”deal” with an existence at your level, one can't be too careful. How could one not be careful and keep a trump card hidden? Klein didn't directly answer the Red Angel evil spirit's question. He smiled and expressed his tacit agreement.
Pa!
He snapped his fingers, causing scarlet flames to surge out of his pocket and envelop him.
As the scarlet streams dispersed, Klein's figure disappeared in front of the Red Angel evil spirit.
Backlund, at Dr. Aaron Ceres's home, in a black pram.
The chubby baby rubbed his eyes and muttered silently, ”Backlund really isn't suitable for children to live in!'
39 Boklund Street. Having done a divination, Klein saw Member of Parliament Macht who was about to head to West Borough.
”Didn't you go to Maygur Manor? I'm planning on letting Riana and Hazel hide in Moose Manor.” Macht pinched the sockets of his eyes.
I wonder when this side effect will disappear... Klein retracted his gaze from this action and sighed.
”I have to prepare some weapons for the manor, so I came to seek your help.
”Also, if you have the means to get food, you can help me buy some.”
In his opinion, the low-level citizens weren't able to stock up on food because they didn't have any money at all. At most, they would stock up a few days' worths of food. Therefore, his purchase wouldn't affect them for the time being. Once the food situation worsened, he could donate more of it through Miss Audrey. Before food rationing was implemented, if Klein didn't stockpile, other rich people would do so. Furthermore, they might not donate it.
”No problem,” Macht agreed without any hesitation.
Klein didn't ask about the price, because he had given Housekeeper Taneja a total of 5,000 pounds for such matters.
Of course, after confirming that Zaratul was in Backlund and that Dwayne Dantes being equivalent to Gehrman Sparrow was known to the Red Angel evil spirit, he decided not to return to Maygur Manor. He planned on changing his identity so as not to affect the innocent.
As for the excuse, it had been arranged by the Church of Evernight that he would perform certain tasks and that he was unable to return for a long period of time. If there was a charity event that required his help, he gave Miss Audrey the authority to stand in his place.
