Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 1144 The Request of the Night Goddess

Seeing this scene, Angel, with his legs dangling and his hands tied behind his back with invisible ropes, actually smiled.

The "Brass Book of Trunsoest" made such a "illegal" judgment, which meant that it felt a real threat, so it hurriedly hanged Angel in the form of a "witch trial".

It's a pity that you have judged the wrong person, I am a real witch... Angel's eyes turned pure black, like two black holes, and in them there was only the "brass book" covered with pale white spots.

The next second, the laws written in mercury words in the book were stained red like blood. The articles that had been repeatedly added and revised due to contradictions quickly split into twisted letters, and then affected other relatively reasonable articles around them, causing them to fall into "disaster".

This is the true power of the "Disaster" spell that Angel used before, one of the powers of "Destroying natural disasters, the root of disasters": inducing the target's internal weaknesses, contradictions or problems to erupt, causing them to collapse from the inside out.

As for the "Brass Book of Trunsost", a sealed object that was most likely derived from "uniqueness", Angel believed that it was impossible to destroy it with the power of Sequence 2. However, it was the job of a disaster witch to make these flawed clauses face "disaster".

As the clauses disintegrated into unrelated letters and then quickly faded away, the brass book on the table flipped forward on its own and returned to a page in the center. A line of words in the same font, but in gray and black color, came into Angel's eyes:

"…The Man in the Mirror can also advance by taking potions, but the success rate is only 50% of the original body."

This is... a rule, not a law?

Before Angel could take a closer look, a new line of mercury-colored text began to slowly emerge behind the lines of gray-black rules:
"...The rules promulgated by the Brass Book of Trunsost are the most precious and sacred things, just like the book itself. No living being is allowed to do anything to it..."

Before the clause with many added descriptions like a stress response fully appeared, a deep light flashed through the glass of the library window closest to the brass book, and this powerful seal was sent into the "mirror world" by Angel.

Angel's only conscious head felt weightless. Her body left the invisible noose and fell to the ground, and was immediately hugged by Klein who was waiting on the side.

From Klein's perspective, just as Arianna left "secretly", Angel appeared in the same place and was hung up by an invisible noose at the last second. Then, the rules in the brass book "collapsed" in a strange state.

It all happened in a matter of seconds, which was too much for him to take in, but it didn't take him too long to realize his intention of having Arianna find Angel, so once Angel was free of the noose, he knew his plan had worked.

The brass book finally suffered the consequences of its haphazard addition of rules.

But Angel seemed to have been punished for breaking the rules. Although his eyeballs were still shaking, the part below his neck was paralyzed due to a broken cervical vertebra... Seeing Angel's hands and feet freed from the restraints but still hanging limply at his side, with only his eyes looking at him, Klein felt both distressed and amused. He pulled out a piece of white paper and was about to transfer the injury to his cervical vertebra onto the paper when he noticed that Angel's hands and feet began to move. He stood up from his arms and shook his neck from side to side, as if he had never been injured.

It was the flesh and blood magic of the "Rose Necklace"... Klein's gaze lingered for a moment on Angel's whipped and torn chest. He found the bright red in the snow-white and silently prepared to put away the white paper.

Just then, a figure quickly formed between the two of them, and Arianna, wearing a simple robe that had also suffered multiple lashes, returned here.

Because of the departure of the "Brass Book of Trunsoest", her hanging was stopped halfway and she regained her freedom, but there was still a deep mark on her neck.

Seeing this, Klein felt that his white paper had a place to be used. As soon as he raised it, Angel took off the "Rose Necklace" and hung the ruby ​​necklace with body temperature around Arianna's neck.

Immediately, the mark of bruises disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the skin that had turned purple due to bruising turned white again.

The physical strength of Beyonders from the Dark Path is obviously higher than that of Witches... The performances of Kotar and Mother of Heaven in the form of a demon wolf appeared in Klein's mind. He thought for a moment, and then he felt that it was a bit impolite to stare at the neck of a lady he was not so close to. He secretly looked away and met Angel's playful gaze.

I’m not, I didn’t… He subconsciously straightened his back and shook his head.

I haven't even asked anything yet...Angel's eyes were filled with scrutiny and confusion.

Arianna, who was sandwiched between the two, had a calm expression. She moved her neck to normal, tilted her head to one side, looked at the two of them in confusion, and said:
"Since 'hanging' has stopped, does that mean the strict laws of '0-02' have been broken?"

0-02, is this the code name of the sealed object of "Trunsoest Brass Book"? It is so close to the top, second only to 0-01 "Salinger Blood Flag". It seems that my guess that it was formed by "uniqueness" is correct... Angel thought about it and nodded:

"Before new laws are enacted, I sent it to the 'mirror world'. My mirror person will treat it well."

At the moment when all laws collapsed and Beldan City resumed contact with the outside world, she contacted her "Mirror Person" and delivered the dangerous activated seal to him. The latter will take "0-02" back to the projection of the City of Disaster and suppress the seal with the power of the source to prevent it from using the laws to create an environment favorable to itself again.

Arianna nodded slightly when she heard this, and did not ask about the person in the mirror. Instead, she continued:
"This seal was taken away by the Patriarch Larion of the Church of the God of War when he escaped. I came to Beldan to track him, but was restricted by the activated seal. Larion reached an agreement with '0-02' and obtained permission to leave here on the condition that he would not seal it again. When he left, he was blocked by Mr. Moretti, but unfortunately he still escaped in the end." No wonder Larion could easily escape the restrictions of the seal, but he seemed to be on the verge of losing control... Angel suddenly realized and replied:

"He is already dead. His extraordinary characteristics are being released. Miss Renette is watching over him."

Hearing that the target she was tracking was dead, Arianna's expression changed slightly. It was unclear whether she was lamenting the passing of an angel or was surprised at Angel's power.

After a moment, He said:

"That powerful spiritual creature came here because of a certain aura that had a strong attraction to Him," He said, glancing at Klein. "And since you two came to Beldan one after the other, you should be able to display some of the same traits that '0-02' has."

Could it be the aura of Sefirah Castle that has such a strong attraction for spiritual beings? Klein used that magical "curtain" to block Larion? But what is the connection between me, Klein, and the "Brass Book of Trunsoest"?
Angel was thinking, and the memory in his mind was suddenly awakened:
The uniqueness of the "Judge" path was once contaminated by the source during the war between the four emperors!

At this moment, Klein also spoke:
"It has been contaminated by the 'State of Disorder.'"

The Land of Disorder is one of the nine source substances... No wonder Klein and I came here one after another. Is it because there is a certain aggregation effect between the "source substances"?

Angel's mind raced as he realized that Arianna, the Servant of Secrets, also knew this, and might even have received information from the goddess that both he and Klein were connected to some kind of source substance.

Thinking of this, Angel looked at Arianna, who still tilted her head slightly, a posture that made her feel familiar, and asked:

"What should we do with Larion's 'Glory One' trait and 'Trunsost Brass Book'?"

"That will be decided by the Goddess."

Arianna replied in a reverent tone.

What I mean is that we should ask the goddess... Angel looked at Klein again. The latter nodded, took out the ritual props he carried with him, set up a simple altar, and prayed to the goddess of night.

As the goddess's followers, Angel and Klein only needed to chant her name to get a response, but considering that they would probably have to sacrifice something, Klein still prepared an altar.

Standing in the ashes of ritual candles and various herbs, Klein lowered his head and closed his eyes. He waited for a moment, then opened his eyes again, glanced at Arianna, then looked at Angel, and said:

"The goddess asked Ms. Arianna to bring Larion's extraordinary properties back to the temple, but the 'Brass Book of Trunsoest' did not specify how to deal with it."

This... is equivalent to handing the Sealed Artifact over to us? Because it is contaminated by the "Land of Disorder", even the true God is reluctant to touch it, but the "Glory One" can make a Sequence 3 goddess believer become an angel?
Just as Angel figured out the key, Klein added:
"Also, He asked us to reach the peak of the Honachis Mountains as soon as possible."

The Honachis Mountains... I remember Klein said that this was where the ancestor of the Antigonus family, the "Half Fool," was sleeping...

Angel's expression suddenly changed.

Judging from previous signs and historical records, Antigonus’ ancestor not only possessed the “Secret Servant” trait of the Diviner Sequence 1, but also possessed the “uniqueness” of this path, which is why he was called Half Fool.

Before this, when the two discussed how to obtain the Sequence 1 characteristics, their target was only on Zaratul, who was nowhere to be found, because he was only an archangel, not the "Angel King" who had mastered uniqueness.

At this time, the goddess of night actually asked them to go to the place where Antigonus was sleeping as soon as possible?

Doesn’t He also want Klein to use the Sequence 1 characteristics in the “curtain”?
Just as they had made some guesses, above their heads, Renette Tinicole emerged from the spirit world with four heads in her hands. One of her heads was holding a small crown made of jagged bones.

That is the "Glory One" characteristic extracted from Larion.
