Becoming a Shadow in the New World

"Whether Elizabeth and Milia are willing is also a question. I remember they are very opposed to bloodsucking."

"It's not a big problem. They told me before that I should ask them for help if I needed it. Milia still owes me a favor. I can use that favor to get Milia to help persuade Elizabeth. She's easy to persuade."

Sid started to panic.

"Sis, since you're so confident, can you actually find them? I haven't heard of any news about the 'Blood Queen' Elizabeth online."

"Yes, I have their contact information."

In response to Sid's question, Claire simply pulled out a keychain that looked very much like a vampire.

"This is it. They said if I needed their help, all I had to do was crush this thing, and Elizabeth and the others would come to me."

Sid fell silent.

Is it too late for him to break his sister's legs and steal her things now?

Chapter 120 The Foolish Church Duo Searches for the Son of God

"I am back."

Opening the door, and remembering that there was now an Asia in his home, Sid still called out.

"bump!"

He blinked at the scene inside the house, then slammed the door shut, took two steps back, and scanned the room to make sure it was indeed his house before opening the door again.

What Sid saw was two girls wrestling together on the sofa, revealing large areas of their bodies, looking awkwardly at the door.

"Who are you?"

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

"I'm so sorry, Mr. Sid!"

Sitting on the sofa, watching Asia and the other two girls perform the dogeza (a traditional Tibetan Buddhist ritual) for him, Sid felt a tickle in his hands and legs. The scene before him was frantically stimulating his Shadow Power genes.

He wanted to put on the Shadow Mask right now, cross his right leg over his left, prop his head up with his right hand, and act like a big boss sitting on a throne, waiting for a hero to challenge him.

Unfortunately, it didn't work. Only Asia was worth a try; I didn't know the other two, so I had to give up. My heart was bleeding.

"Um... you guys should get up quickly."

Noticing that one of the two unfamiliar girls in front of him, the one with short blue hair and a spirited look, seemed uncomfortable, Sid quickly told them to get up.

The blue-haired girl's eyes lit up. Just as she was about to stand up, she felt a hand on her back stop her.

Turning her head, the blue-haired girl looked at the owner of the hand—the brown-haired girl with pigtails who was kneeling on the ground with her. At this moment, the brown-haired girl also turned her head and winked at her.

Kneel down first, then stand up later.

Having understood what the brown-haired girl meant, the blue-haired girl's eyelids also began to twitch.

He's already told us to get up, so why should we keep kneeling?

After receiving the reply, the brown-haired girl pondered for a second or two, organized her thoughts, and her eyelids twitched again.

This situation is clearly our fault. Asia is still kneeling; how can we stand up? The Lord didn't teach us to be ungrateful.

No, all we did was stay here for a while and eat something. If we were wrong, we'll apologize or compensate you. Is it really necessary for us to kneel down and apologize?

[I don't know, but Asia knelt down, so how can we not? Asia clearly knelt down for our sake.]

……

Are you an idiot?!

Sid, who had been watching the entire exchange of glances between the two, couldn't help but complain about the orange-haired girl's bizarre logic.

Because you feel you bear some responsibility, you kneel down just because others kneel down. Can't you be a little more rational? Asia is abnormal, so you're abnormal too?

The blue-haired girl seemed stunned by the orange-haired girl's bizarre logic, remaining frozen for a second or two before her eyelids began to twitch.

[That seems... to make sense.]

……

Where did you two idiots come from? I thought you were a brainless and grumpy duo, but it turns out you're a combination of a simpleton and a hot-blooded fool.

Suppressing the urge to complain, Sid looked at Asia, who was standing between the three of them with her forehead pressed against the back of her hand.

"Asia, what do you think you did wrong that makes you plan to kneel here forever?"

Asia looked up, her eyes glistening with tears, her voice filled with unease.

“I am truly sorry, Mr. Sid, for bringing other people to Mr. Sid’s house without his permission.”

"That's it?"

Sid's lips twitched a few times as he looked at Asia, who seemed to have committed some heinous crime. Sid squatted down and spoke softly.

"Asia, can you tell me why you're doing a dogeza (prostration)? This matter doesn't seem to warrant such a grand gesture."

"When I first arrived in this island nation, someone told me that bowing deeply is the best way to express sincere apology. Is there a problem with that, Mr. Sid?"

"In a sense, he was right, but don't do it again next time, Asia. It's not a good thing to kneel down so easily."

Okay, get up quickly, the ground is cold.

Pressing his forehead to indicate a headache, Sid glanced at the duo still exchanging glances and immediately pulled them up.

Perhaps due to some unknown evolution of his body, Sid discovered that he could actually read the eye contact between the two. Although he didn't know why he seemed to be able to understand only the two in front of him, it didn't matter. It was just a little icing on the cake.

"Let's introduce ourselves first. I'll go first, Sid Cagano, who is roommates with Asia. Now it's your turn. Please tell us why you're in my house."

After pulling the three of them to the sofa, Sid introduced himself and then looked at the other two, nodding to indicate that it was their turn to speak.

"My name is Irina Wisteria, and I am a warrior from the church. Nice to meet you."

The one who spoke was a girl with brown twin tails who gave off a playful and cute vibe; she was probably a hot-blooded idiot.

“Xenovia, like this fool, is a warrior from the Church.”

Upon closer inspection, the girl with short blue hair has a dark green streak in her hair, giving her a cool vibe. Paired with Xenovia's striking features, she's a tomboy.

"As for why we came here..."

At this point, Xenovia turned to look at Irina Fujito beside her. Noticing Xenovia's gaze, Irina Fujito could only turn her head away, feeling guilty and not daring to meet her eyes.

"It was this idiot who lost our funds for this operation, leaving us homeless and nearly starving. Fortunately, we met Asia, who is a devout believer like us, and received relief from her, which saved us from death."

It wasn't as exaggerated as Xenovia made it out to be. If they really couldn't withstand the hunger and fainted, they would definitely trigger the guard mechanism the church had placed on them before they lost consciousness, and then be taken away by the church.

However, their operation this time will definitely be reported as a failure in the written report, because the loss of funds led to the mission's failure, so it would be better to just kill her.

“Ah…hahahaha.”

Irina Wisteria, who was being stared at by Xenovia, could only force a smile, since she was indeed the one who had tricked Xenovia.

"So if you need compensation, please feel free to ask her for it."

"Hey, Genovia, you've gone too far."

"Tsk..."

Seemingly because Genovya had gone too far, Irina Fujito rushed up and started fighting with him again, while Sid sat by and watched the show.

After some playful fighting, Sid spoke again when the two separated.

"I understand why you're here, it makes sense. But you mentioned earlier that you have funds for your activities, which means you came here with a purpose. Could you tell me about it? Ah... if you can't, you don't have to tell me. I just wanted to see if I could help (and maybe I could get the Shadow Power achievement)."

Genovia scratched her head, nodded in thanks, and spoke.

"It's not that there's anything we can't say. We've been ordered to find the Son of God."

"!!!"

Chapter 121 The Child of God Does Not Exist

"The Son of God! There is actually a Son of God on this island."

After giving Sid a few surprised glances, Xenovia hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded and spoke.

"There should be... right? What, Sid, are you interested in the Son of God?"

"Ah, I wouldn't say I'm interested or anything, but I just feel that this Son of God must be very strong, after all, he is a person who is related to one of the world's strongest 'Bible God'."

Especially in terms of spells, being related to the "God of the Bible" suggests that this "Son of God" must be a mage-type character with at least SSS+ strength, comparable to the powerful Shiva.

Thinking of the magic base in "The Norm of Life" with its thousands of spells, Sid couldn't help but get excited.

He was genuinely curious about how far he could go in terms of magical ability alone, without using his core dismantling techniques.

As for what level he would be after using the core method of the Dismantling Technique, let's not even talk about it. This skill can't even be considered magic. If he uses this skill, he'll be the death of all mages.

It can only be said that when faced with the seemingly endless knowledge base of the library, the skill that popped into his head in a moment of passion was too outrageous, and strangely enough, he actually succeeded.

The consequence was that he didn't level up any of the basic skills, but he did level up all the most advanced and difficult skills.

This is why Sid felt he was undeserving of the title of God of Magic, which he earned entirely through his superhuman strength.
