Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 1108 Proof of Glory
The place where the Silver City Seal is stored is in one of the twin towers where the "Six-Man Council" lives, deep below the dome tower.

Angel followed the elder Lovia Tiffany, who was wearing a black robe and had slightly curly silver-gray hair, through the spiral staircase and went underground from the room where he was temporarily living.

She did not allow Klein to follow her. Although this request would not be rejected by the City of Silver, Angel was worried that the "0" level seal would have an impact on the "ancient scholar" who did not possess complete divinity.

Anyway, she would share any knowledge she had with the other party, and the two sealed objects in the City of Silver could only be viewed but not touched. Even if Klein went with them, he would not be able to touch them and use them to draw projections from the gaps in history.

As his mind was full of thoughts, Angel noticed a faint sobbing sound coming from behind a door next to the spiral staircase they passed by. It seemed to be the voice of a young girl, mixed with despair, panic, and endless sorrow.

She paused, but still followed Lovia, deciding not to meddle in other people's business.

But this reaction was still noticed by the "Black Knight" who led the way and looked nothing like a knight. She turned around, glanced at Angel with her light grey eyes, and suddenly said:

"That is... the only way to prevent the citizens of the City of Silver from becoming evil spirits."

Evil spirits… If a person’s life is not ended by a blood relative within three generations, he or she will be cursed to become an evil spirit after death?
Angel immediately remembered the history of Silver City that "Sun" Derrick had told at the Tarot Club, and asked in a low voice:
"Parricide curse?"

Luo Weiya nodded, her expression inevitably showing a hint of sadness. It was unclear whether she was thinking of a relative she had sent away, or the suffering that had lasted for a thousand years in the City of Silver.

The two of them circled downwards silently once again, until they passed the lobby on the first floor and the dungeons underground, and came to a pair of stone doors that looked extremely huge considering the average height of Silver City people, who were over two meters three.

A little light like morning light shone through the crack of the door, making Angel feel a little warm in the damp underground.

Lovia put her hands against the stone door and pushed the heavy door open by herself, allowing Angel to confirm that the woman in front of him, who was nearly two meters tall but too weak to be a resident of Silver City, did indeed possess the power of a demigod.

The moment the door opened, a pale yellow light poured out, passing through the two of them, but it did not spread to the dungeon outside. Instead, it came back and gathered in front of the door as if surrounding them, making Angel feel as if he was being spied on by the "Chief" earlier, and felt that his own power was slightly suppressed.

It should be the power of one of the "0" level seals. It seems that the chief did not accompany me to visit the seal. He wanted to control its power somewhere else to avoid the worst situation... He should be the only Sequence 3 in the City of Silver... Angel's mind flashed through the thought, and he followed the tall Lovia through the stone door, stepped onto the mottled and damp stairs and continued to walk down.

This is probably a hundred meters deep...

She estimated in her mind, and swept her eyes over the wet stone walls on both sides. She found that there were many black hair-like plants growing here, and asked casually:

"Is this 'black-faced grass'?"

The sound echoed in the passage filled with only the sound of footsteps, and was soon replaced by the clear and beautiful voice of Lovia:
“Yes, it helped Silver City get through the most difficult times, and prevented it from completely losing hope in the dark times like other city-states.

"They are related to a certain sealed object you are about to see."

Did the seal create this usable plant? It should be the "mother" path, but I don't know its sequence. It can't be one of the level 0 seals I want to see... Angel thought of the "Desolate Mistress" characteristics possessed by Patis in the "Dream City", and became more and more certain of his guess.

After walking down the stairs, the two came to a spacious stone chamber. The morning light here was more intense than that above, forming bright particles of light in the air. They enveloped several different stone platforms at the edge of the chamber, as if protecting and blocking certain forces inside.

Through the morning light, Angel recognized several sealed objects on the stone platform. They were the other sealed objects in the information list he got when he exchanged Level 1 sealed objects with Silver City through Derrick Berg using the "Darkless Cross". There was the "Silver Sword" that required a height of 2 meters to lift and exert its full power, the "Mask of Dusk" that could kill the enemy just by looking at it, and the "Fallen Flute" that could quickly corrupt a person and instantly unleash all kinds of desires in their heart. There were also several things that Angel didn't know about, which should be only Level 2 sealed objects.

Seeing that this was obviously a scene where the high level and overflowing power of a certain "0" level seal suppressed and sealed other objects, Angel spoke with some surprise:

"The method used by Silver City to preserve demigod-level seals is to suppress them using god-level seals?"

She originally thought she would see a scene similar to the Chanis Gate, where dangerous items were sealed separately through complex means, and their mutual restraint and influence were summarized and utilized to store them safely. Unexpectedly, the "extensive management" of the Silver City with a history of thousands of years was almost the same as that of the Dream City - both used high-level suppression.

Luo Weiya glanced at her and said:

"You don't seem surprised."

I just didn’t show my disappointment on my face… Angel muttered, chuckled and said, “I also own a few god-level sealed items.”

These words, which contained additional information, made Luo Weiya, whose face looked even more gorgeous and majestic in the morning light, stunned for a moment. It was as if she just remembered that the person in front of her was a real angel, who had the ability to destroy the entire Silver City and even mastered more than one god-level seal. Only then did she really lower her head and said in a softer voice than before:

"I will first take you to see the seal that created these morning lights."

This way communication would be much easier... Angel nodded with satisfaction and followed her through the passage at the end of the stone chamber, walking through the increasingly intense light.

"Have you prayed to the True Creator?"

Seeing that Lovia was silent, Angel simply took the initiative to bring up the topic, and at the same time he also wanted to understand the evil god's true attitude.

"I will go to the Giant King's Court with you."

The devout believer replied.

This means that the evil god agreed... Angel smiled without surprise, watching Lovia push open another stone door, allowing more morning light to burst out.

At the end of the morning light, a huge crown of ancient style was quietly placed on the mottled stone platform. It seemed to be condensed by light, with blurred outlines, full of glory, pride, and indomitable spirit.

Without the introduction of Lovia, Angel could tell from the aura of the crown that it was the level 0 seal that had previously monitored him and suppressed the seals above.

Moreover, its aura has an inexplicable similarity to the bone sword formed by the characteristics of "God of Glory" Bradl, and its status is slightly higher than the "Sword of Glory", but it cannot be the Sequence 1 characteristic of the "Warrior" path. Could it be that it is not the suppression of the Beyonder characteristics, but their origins... Angel was trying to analyze it further when Lovia spoke:

"This is the 'Crown of Glory' that the Giant King Almir once wore. Now the City of Silver calls it the 'Proof of Glory'. It is the most important seal that protected the City of Silver from the monsters of darkness during the 2,584 years of the Dark Ages."

The Giant King's crown... So this is most likely the "Glory One" feature of the Warrior Path Sequence 2, and the reason why it can subtly suppress the "Sword of Glory" that I have is very simple, that is, the father-son relationship... Angel nodded, and immediately remembered that the Silver City was originally ruled by the Giant King Ormir, and it was not until the death of this ancient god that they converted to the ancient sun god. It was not surprising that they had a relic from the Giant King's Court.

While she was thinking, Lovia continued to introduce the function of the "Certificate of Glory" in a soft voice that did not match her body shape:

“Without the need for direct use, this divine seal can continuously emit the morning light that has an absolute suppressive effect on non-divine creatures and objects. Even saints will be suppressed within the range of the light, unless they have no hostility towards the owner of the ‘Proof of Glory’.

"And if this crown is worn directly, the 'Certificate of Glory' will grant the user near-divine strength and defense, and can create a sacred barrier to block all attacks; launch a blade storm that appears directly within the enemy's body; and tear apart any enemy."

The strongest shield and the strongest sword... This is similar to my "Sword of Glory", but with a different focus, and without the contamination of the "Death God" path. It is a pure, more easily controlled single-path power... Angel thought about it and took over the conversation:

"What about its limitations and negative effects?"

"Two saints are required to use the 'Proof of Glory' together. They will take turns wearing the crown and the other will lend their strength to them. Otherwise, not only will they be unable to use any of its abilities, but they will also suffer a strong backlash and quickly lose their lives in the light of dusk... Even if two people use it together, it cannot last more than thirty minutes, otherwise one of them will suffer the corresponding damage."

Lovia replied.

Two people together... Is there any particular meaning to this? Angel looked at the crown of light in confusion.

After learning more about how to preserve the "Proof of Glory" and the methods discovered by the City of Silver to use some of their powers without wearing a crown, the two left the dawn light that made them feel obviously uncomfortable and closed the stone door.

Regularly organizing enough residents to perform sacrifices in the form of worship... Is this some of the remaining characteristics of the Giant King Ormir? Does He like to be worshipped?

Angel repeated the method of sealing the "Proof of Glory" in his mind, and continued to walk deeper into the depths, following the figure with slightly curly silver-gray hair constantly dancing.

"Another divine sealed object is right below. It is called, 'Gift of the Earth'."
