Chapter 59 Deception
There was no lecture tonight. Eve and Klein sat and chatted a lot, about things before and after the time travel, about daily life, and how the ordinary things in the past were so precious and beautiful.

They chatted for a long time until Klein yawned and left.

After returning home, Eve didn't rush to the bed as usual. She sat in front of the dressing mirror. Ripples appeared on the mirror surface, and soon a notebook appeared, with a white quill quietly placed on it.

He looked at the several lines of blackened words in the notebook. The ink flowed to the side like water, forming a large ink spot. The words gradually appeared as the ink left.

"Despite Ince Zangwill's best efforts to stop him, Cesimar still came to Tingen. They began to suspect Ince Zangwill's existence."

Eve continued to read on expressionlessly. These were all arrangements that were beneficial to the Nighthawks. He was not surprised. In fact, this was exactly the effect he wanted to achieve.

Eve deceived Alesukhod's pen. At that time, Eve just casually divined whether Adam was paying attention to Tingen. She didn't hold much hope. Who knew that the divination was actually correct without any signs of interference.

This result made him give up the idea of taking Alesuhod's pen directly. Perhaps as long as he had the idea of taking action, he would appear first.

Eve revealed the divination results to the Pen of Aleshod, who was observing her at the time. Using Adam to force the Pen of Aleshod toward her, and to prevent it from escaping Tingen, she chose to deceive, leaving it in the hands of Ince Zangwill for reasons beyond her control. This meant that Adam had plans in Tingen, and while it was in Ince's hands, it was safe, and Eve would keep an eye on it. But if it had escaped, escaping Adam's plans, she wouldn't necessarily have allowed it to remain in someone else's hands, and Eve wouldn't have necessarily kept an eye on it.

In this way, in the eyes of Alesukhod, he had the opportunity to hook up with Eve. As long as he seized the opportunity to persuade Eve, and once Eve had the idea of taking it away, he would find a way to kill Ince Zangwill. As long as he died and became an abandoned pawn, the reason behind it would have nothing to do with him, and Eve would take it away.

As the Angel King who had a very bad relationship with Adam, it was naturally safer for him to stay with Eve than with Ince Zangwill. Eve's attitude was also very clear - she had no intention of giving it to Adam, but only refused to take it because she wanted to understand the reason behind it.

That's why it was so fawning, actively trying to please Eve and help Klein. While that guy was saying "bad" and calling Ince Zangwill the worst writer, he was actually secretly expressing his desire to change his master.

Eve did want to use Tingen's incident to determine Adam's intentions and thus confirm the truth, but in Adam's plan, Ince Zangwill was just an insignificant pawn, and his actions would not affect anything.

And even if he fails this time, as long as Zhou Mingrui is still there, as long as his suspicions are true, Adam will keep an eye on him and will know sooner or later. It is better to know earlier, but knowing later is better. During the period of not knowing, He will prepare for the worst case scenario.

……

Because of the Antigonus family notes, Klein got up extra early today and rushed to the Blackthorn Security Company.

It wasn't even eight o'clock when they got back from Rel Bieber's house.

Klein hadn't eaten breakfast yet, but after what had just happened, he had no appetite for breakfast. Just when he thought he was going to go hungry in the morning, the extra 10 pounds instantly cured his discomfort. This was his salary for several weeks.

He still remembered what Eve said last night and sat in the reception hall waiting for Leonard.

Leonard went to monitor Baron Edgar last night. Ms. Elena's commission was to monitor the follow-up situation between Baron Edgar and Miss Sherman, and the commission was quite generous, with the first commission being 200 pounds.

This kind of surveillance mission requires work day and night, and the night part is often handed over to the sleepless.

Klein sat on the sofa reading a newspaper. After a while, he heard the sound of a door opening.

Leonard still looked like a romantic poet. He wasn't wearing a jacket, and the top two buttons of his white shirt were undone. He yawned, scratched his head, and said to Klein, "Good morning, Klein."

"Good morning, Leonard," Klein put down the newspaper and folded it on the sofa. "You look tired. Would you like to rest in the lounge for a while? I can make you some coffee or tea."

"Ah? I'm not tired, actually. No..." Leonard casually half-lay on the sofa, his arms spread out on the backrest. Just as he was about to refuse, he suddenly changed his tone and said, "But I still want to rest for a while. Thank you."

Am I being too tactful, or did you trade your IQ for your looks? Klein complained in his mind.

Leonard stood up and followed Klein to the lounge, which was empty.

Klein glanced at the Holy Emblem of Night hanging on the wall and felt a little guilty. He secretly praised the goddess in his heart. Wait... the goddess can't hear me, right?

"Tea or coffee?"

"coffee."

Klein took out the can of coffee stored in the lounge and made a cup for Leonard. The two sat down facing each other. Klein hesitated for a moment, thinking, "The goddess shouldn't pay attention to me, right?"

Klein pondered for a moment, then finally decided to speak out, "Be careful of the 'audience.'"

Leonard glanced at Klein suspiciously, tilting his head as if listening to something.

After a moment, Leonard looked up at Klein and said, "What did 'He' say?"

"Hmm... There are two entities behind the incident involving Lord Cecima, one of which is an activated seal." Although there was no one else in the lounge, Klein lowered his voice and spoke softly.

The Activated Seal of the Audience Path...

Pales' heart skipped a beat, wondering if it was written by Alsuhod.

If it was really Al-Suhod's work, He would come to us sooner or later.

Pales felt that the world was too unkind to an old man like him. He had been hiding in Tingen, when Eve suddenly showed up. Pales thought he was going to die. Eve had secretly been willing to support Amon's deification.

Fortunately, He changed His mind for unknown reasons, but He might change His mind again someday. In short, Pales felt that he was in danger, and Leonard was also in trouble. He was supervised by Pales to digest the potion and try to leave Tingen as soon as possible.

Pales was still worried, and today he got another big surprise, and his heart almost jumped into his throat.

Adam came before Eve left. Will Amon be the next one?
"What is your relationship with him?" Leonard said, relaying Pales' words.

"I don't know." Klein shook his head, looking bewildered. "I'm just a weak Sequence Nine. What could I possibly know?" "But 'He' is very kind to me, and He doesn't ask me to believe in Him."

Goddess, I haven’t converted, please don’t kill me.

Klein added in his mind. Although he felt the goddess wouldn't pay attention to a mere Sequence Nine like him, he still felt unusually guilty next to the Holy Emblem of Night.

"The old man said he knew." Leonard scratched his head, looked around, and leaned over to Klein and said, "I knew you had a secret too."

"Anything else?" Klein asked.

"what?"

"Anything else besides this?" Klein explained, looking at Leonard's puzzled expression.

"No," Leonard said puzzledly, "What happened?"

"No, nothing." Klein took a deep breath. Perhaps the Riddler was a necessary condition for becoming a high-ranking being.

 I found a plot bug and fixed Chapter 45. Thanks to Baozi in the comment section for reminding me.
