1207 Dorians Decision (2/2)
Dorian wasn't surprised by Gehrman Sparrow's request for a Grade 0 Sealed Artifact. He had long been mentally prepared, and instead, he felt that the conditions were beyond his imagination. After all, the Abraham family didn't have many things that a demigod could covet at this point in time.
He frowned slightly and said, ”Why does he want the potion formula of a Planeswalker?”
”I don't know,” Fors answered frankly.
Dorian stood up and started pacing.
Suddenly, he stopped and looked at Fors.
”I need to meet him and have a chat before I can make a decision.”
”Alright.” Fors agreed without any hesitation.
Dorian heaved a sigh of relief and prepared to send his student away before quickly taking out the medicine for his consumption.
He had arranged to meet at this time because he had taken into consideration that his curse would happen at any moment. If anything were to happen, the enemy wouldn't be able to channel his spirit in time.
However, after Fors got up, she didn't walk to the door. She stood on the spot and grabbed at the void.
Her arm suddenly sank, and she quickly pulled out a figure wearing a black trench coat and silk top hat.
This figure had black hair and brown eyes. His facial features were cut and cold. It was none other than Gehrman Sparrow.
Gehrman Sparrow's eyes moved slightly as he quickly recovered from his sluggish look and became no different from a real person.
”Teacher, he's here.” Fors introduced seriously, ”He's Gehrman Sparrow.”
This action left Dorian Gray Abraham slightly agape. He forgot to close his mouth and didn't respond for a moment.
Although he came from an ancient family clan and knew many secrets, there were many things he couldn't imagine even if he read the description due to him being only a Sequence 7.
After moving his consciousness over, Klein reached into his clothes and took out a golden pocket watch.
Pa! He opened his pocket watch and took a look. Without any emotions, he said to Dorian, ”You have three minutes.”
…It's exactly as the rumors say. He's cold, arrogant, and crazy… Dorian didn't dare to waste any time and directly said, ”Give me a reason to believe in your promise.”
As he closed his pocket watch, Klein placed it back into his inner pocket and said, ”In truth, I'm already aware of the ritual that allows Mr. Door to return.”
Dorian's eyes lit up. Just as he was about to ask, he heard Gehrman Sparrow calmly add, ”But I don't plan to do that.”
”Why?” Dorian and Fors were puzzled, but one dared to ask while the other didn't.
Klein looked out the window and said, ”Do you know about the corruption from the cosmos?”
When it came to understanding the cosmos, the Abraham family was definitely ranked first outside the true deities and angels. Klein believed that they must've left behind some hints and hidden records.
Dorian nodded solemnly and said, ”Yes.”
”I suspect that Mr. Door has been corrupted by the cosmos,” Klein explained simply. ”As for my promise, it can be fulfilled right away. However, you might not be willing to do so. Furthermore, it doesn't completely resolve the curse.”
”What's the solution?” Dorian asked as he controlled his surging emotions.
Klein's expression immediately turned serious.
”You and your family members will change their faith to my Lord. That way, when the full moon or Blood Moon happens, you will be blessed and no longer suffer from the curse.”
After completely digesting the Scholar of Yore potion, there was no need for him to pull a person above the gray fog to avoid Mr. Door's ravings. He could directly use ”Angel's Embrace” to resolve the problem. The only thing he needed to worry about now was that there might be too many members of the Abraham family. It might overwhelm him, or he might not have enough spirituality.
”…Who is your Lord?” Dorian asked after a moment of silence.
Klein suppressed his shame and said solemnly, ”The great Mr. Fool.”
”The Fool… Are you from the Antigonus family?” Dorian suddenly made some connections.
Klein shook his head and rejected his guess.
Dorian fell silent again, but considering that there were only three minutes left, he hurriedly asked, ”If we believe in that entity, we can avoid the troubles brought about by the curse?”
As an ancient family member, he knew very well how dangerous it was to believe in an unknown existence. He was afraid that he would resolve Mr. Door's ravings, but bring about another curse.
Klein answered frankly, ”This is just a temporary solution. I will find a better solution for you.”
Dorian nodded and quickly said, ”I will try to believe in your Lord and give you the potion formula of Planeswalker. If the curse can really be resolved temporarily, we will complete the transaction of the Grade 0 Sealed Artifact.”
He planned on using himself as an experiment to see if the method worked. Furthermore, he didn't plan on telling the other family members. He wanted to get them to wait for Gehrman Sparrow's supposedly better solution until they couldn't wait any longer.
”Alright.” Klein took out a pen and paper from his pocket and scribbled the honorific name of The Fool.
As for Dorian, he also began to use a crystal ball to aid in his memories, recording down the potion formula of Planeswalker.
After the exchange, Klein cast his gaze towards the supplementary ingredients and ritual.
”Supplementary ingredients: One Worm of Star, one Worm of Time, one Worm of Spirit.
”Advancement ritual: Leave legends in nine places outside this planet.”
