In Type-Moon, it all starts with adopting Sakura.

Among magicians who place the utmost importance on the number of generations of inheritance, the fact that it can bridge the gap of more than three generations of inheritance makes its value beyond doubt.

If Lovi were to hand over this information to the Clock Tower's higher-ups, he wouldn't even need to participate in the Grand Rank assessment; its value alone would guarantee his advancement. However, Lovi certainly wouldn't need to resort to such underhanded tricks to advance; with what he has, even a few drops slipping from under his fingernails would suffice. But…

"This time I've really gained a lot... Now that I have this information as a reference, it seems that my research on the new direction of the Multiple Mystic Eyes will be much easier."

Aozaki Touko clutched the clipboard tightly, her face beaming with pure joy, which made Lo Wei happy for her as well.

"Yes, once you fully understand this technology, you won't need to go through the trouble of replacing and using the Multiple Magic Eyes as before. In short... let's start researching from this direction. Anyway, we have plenty of experimental materials on hand now. Even if we encounter any bottlenecks, we can just go to the dungeon and ask the people involved, and they will solve everything."

Luo Wei also specifically mentioned the unjustly imprisoned Dead Apostle, prompting Aozaki Touko to echo his sentiments. She couldn't possibly remain unmoved by the knowledge and magical accumulation possessed by the progenitor of the Dead Apostles.

"Honestly... You two seem to be having an easy time, but how am I supposed to sleep peacefully if things continue like this? Just thinking about how there's an almost immortal vampire trapped in the room next to mine, and who knows when it might escape, makes my heart race. It's really terrifying."

Compared to Aozaki Touko, who was overjoyed at obtaining the technology she wanted, and Lovi, who didn't pay much attention to Rita, Rafe's face was extremely ugly. He gently took off his hat and wiped a bead of cold sweat from his forehead, looking at his two colleagues who had caused him trouble with a resentful expression.

“I’m sorry, Rafe, but the only places that can imprison her right now, besides the Holy Church, are the artificial sanctuary we’re standing in. If we don’t keep her here, her escape is almost inevitable. In the entire Clock Tower, I’m afraid only this place and the Department of Law and Politics can keep her under control to a certain extent.”

Rowe sat down in a chair, looking at Rafe with a resentful expression, and a hint of apology appeared on his face.

"That woman is definitely not as simple as she seems. Even though I used the 'ultimate insult' to scare her, what she fears is not me, nor the church, but the loss of her own honor and pride. A large part of her current compromise is feigned, an attempt to lower our guard, even trying to bargain for my release. She's incredibly naive, and..."

Luo Wei picked up the document from Aozaki Touko's hand and handed it to Rafe: "Although it looks fine, I still don't trust her. So I dare not let anyone around me use this document right now."

He shook his head slightly, then turned to look at Aozaki Touko beside him and continued, "The question about this information can only be verified by you, Touko-senpai. And be careful of her; that woman is definitely not as simple as she seems on the surface."

"no problem."

Aozaki Touko nodded, then raised her question: "But... Crowley, do you still think that guy's behavior just now was an act?"

"Is she still lying?"

Rafe understood what Loew meant.

"You mean there's something wrong with this technology?"

"Well, it's just my guess. There's still more to be determined, but it's always good to be cautious."

"The rabbit is killed and the dog is cooked; the birds are gone and the bow is put away. She couldn't possibly not understand such a simple truth after living for so long."

Luo Wei shared her opinion: "If I were her, I would also worry that I would be executed once I lost my value in this situation."

"You're right... After all, that's just human nature's weakness."

Rafe nodded, agreeing with Rowe's point of view.

"However, keeping this guy here is no different from a time bomb. Even with the angels' suppression, it's hard for her to cause any trouble. But constantly diverting some of the angels' power to suppress her will definitely slow down our research progress, which is definitely not worth it."

Rafe was still somewhat unhappy about his research being interfered with by the founder of the Dead Apostles.

"So just weaken her first, lock her in that targeted room, then find some artifacts that are specifically designed to counter Dead Apostles and add to the setup. Just ignore her."

“Even the progenitor of the Dead Apostles needs to eat and replenish himself. As long as Rita Rogan is kept from drinking blood for a long time, her abilities will become extremely weak. We can then figure out how to deal with her.”

After thinking for a moment, Luo Wei casually revealed his true thoughts at that moment.

To be honest, he really wanted to erase Rita Rogéan's memories and then train her to be a servant.

After all, that's top-tier Servant-level combat power. If used properly, it can indeed save him a lot of effort.

However, she was right.

As a holder of a Mystic Eye that is almost at the level of a god, Rita Rojaan's mental resistance has long been maxed out, so brainwashing would not work. Therefore, she can only be nurtured for now, and we can find a way to train her later.

As for letting him go so easily?

That is impossible.

Putting aside whether Rita will retaliate, she already knew too many of her secrets when she arrived here.

Without even thinking about it, Luo Wei knew that if this guy really escaped, he would definitely inform the church and report his research on divine power and his attempt to build an earthly kingdom, thus inciting a conflict between the church and him.

When that time comes, he definitely can't stay in the Clock Tower any longer; he'll have to wage a holy war against the Church. And who knows, those founders of the Dead Apostles might even join in.

He could also experience Aleister's past as a villain being hunted by various forces and then branded as a heinous magician.

Therefore, Rita will never be able to leave him in this lifetime.

If Rita Rojaan knew about this right now, she would definitely expose it to Lo Wei without hesitation.

"That's a real shame, but..."

Rafe sighed, for he could certainly see the value that the progenitor of the Dead Apostles possessed.

"Actually, compared to your current methods of imprisonment and domestication, there is another plan that can better utilize her value. Would you like to hear about it?"

"Oh, do you have any ideas too, Rafe?"

Luo Wei became interested, and Aozaki Touko also wanted to hear what insights this guy had.

"There is something I want to verify."

Rafe stroked his chin, then pondered and said, "Why don't you control her and have a child with her? I've recently been researching the idea that all humans have original sin, so I want to see the birth of an existence that has escaped this original sin. You're gradually moving towards that now, and Leta, the progenitor of the Dead Apostles, is not human either."

"Therefore... I speculate that a child born in the Sanctuary who inherits both your divine blood and the bloodline of the Ancestor of the Dead Apostles might actually be able to escape humanity's original sin and successfully replicate a miracle similar to a 'Divine Child'? And even if it's not a 'Divine Child,' it doesn't matter, since the bloodline foundation is there. A child born in this way will inevitably be an absolute genius..."

"puff!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Wei's face suddenly darkened, while Aozaki Touko couldn't help but laugh.

He patted Rowe on the back and then said with a hint of amusement, "Actually... to be fair, Crowley, Rafe's suggestion is really good. It's only beneficial to you and has no downsides. Anyway, you're the one who'll enjoy it, and you definitely won't lose out. All you have to do is give up some of your genetic material."

"Although I'm not sure if humans and Dead Apostles can actually have children, what you've said makes me want to see what the specific results are. After all, it's really a curious thing."

"Then, it's your turn to personally go and 'seduce' that Rita Roggean!"

"..."

Listening to Aozaki Touko's teasing remarks, Luo Wei was momentarily speechless.

"Yes, Miss Aozaki is right, I think so too. If a 'divine child' who has been freed from original sin could truly be born, it would be a blessing for the entire world..."

Rafe continued to talk incessantly about his conjectures, while looking at Rowe with an intense gaze. From his excited tone, one could tell how curious and serious he was about this matter.

This even led him to encourage Rowe to have a child with the founder of the Dead Apostles, whom he had recently fought to the death with, completely disregarding the likelihood of such a situation.

From a magician's perspective, Rita Rozian is indeed top-tier in both talent and bloodline. She is undoubtedly the most suitable mother, and as a bloodline inheritor, she would certainly not be at a disadvantage. Moreover, there's the possibility that such a rare miracle as a "divine child" might be born during this process.

So while Rafe was satisfying his own thirst for knowledge, he was genuinely thinking of Loewy's best interests, but...

"Rafe, come here a little."

Luo Wei lowered his head and gently beckoned him over with a few fingers.

"What? You agreed? That's wonderful!"

Rafe wasn't on guard and assumed that Rowe had agreed, meaning he wanted Rafe to make the arrangements. Just as he was about to say something, Rowe suddenly shouted something loudly into his ear.

"Oops! Rafe!!"

This loud shout startled Rafe, who was still immersed in joy.

"What on earth is going on in your head? You green caterpillar, what's with all that imagination?! How could you even think of me having a child with the Ancestor of the Dead Apostles?!"

Lowe was completely speechless at this guy, and then immediately signaled to Rafe to stop the topic.

"I think this suggestion is pretty good to write. With the looks of that Dead Apostle Ancestor, you won't be at a disadvantage. Since you're unwilling, just pretend I didn't say anything."

"But seriously, you've just casually moved your lips and gotten me into a whole bunch of trouble."

Seeing that the idea of ​​creating a "divine child" was directly rejected by Loew, after a brief complaint, Rafe frowned, no longer paying attention to the question about the progenitor of the Dead Apostles, and instead said in a deep voice:

"Our research on the 'Guardian Angel' Aiwass has yielded some results. Using the unique magic of the four archangels we simulated, we've gained some understanding of divine power, and its prototype has been successfully created. Next, we only need to shape it and form a contract to bring it to life. The process is similar to the four archangels you summoned before, so I won't elaborate."

"However, this 'Aivas' doesn't exist in any religious texts; there's only a Book of Law as a template. Although your experimental theory was successful and the results were ideal, its popularity is too low, practically nonexistent. This means the time required is far too long. Even with the ley lines beneath our feet, shaping it would conservatively require decades of magical accumulation. Furthermore, whether the final result will meet your expectations and reach the true 'angel' level is currently completely uncertain."

"You mean we still need decades to accumulate magic?"

Upon hearing this condition, Luo Wei's expression gradually became somewhat strange.

"If you feed the Sage's Staff to Aiwass, a few years will be enough."

Rafe offered the simplest solution: the staff that had compressed decades of magic power from the Greater Grail was undoubtedly the best source of magic.

"no……"

Upon hearing his proposed method, Lowe gently shook his head.

While his current combat power appears strong, his stats on paper are still too low. The Sage's Staff alone accounts for more than half of his combat power. Without this artifact, he wouldn't be able to unleash his Sanctuary at will and summon four elemental angels to fight simultaneously.

Although he can summon a single elemental angel, the difference in combat power between summoning one and controlling four simultaneously is incomparable, and he cannot sacrifice this Mystic Code at the moment.

"If you don't want to, then let's take it slow. Let's finish the preparations first."

Rafe proposed another solution.

"Then I'll leave it to you, Rafe. But... it requires a huge amount of magic power, right?"

Rowe nodded and continued speaking to Rafe, "Never mind, don't worry, I'll find a way to fulfill this condition."

"Yes, it's good that you know what I mean."

Rafe did not say anything about this.

After all, it doesn't matter whether or not Luo Wei can find such a large source of magic.

In any case, the birth of this angel is only a matter of time. Even if it takes decades, it will still be a true miracle. After all, this is a feat comparable to a real angel, created through unrecognized means.

If this can be filmed, it will be an absolutely genuine Mystic Revival.

Despite this, Rafe still harbors endless hope.

"In that case, I'll take my leave for now. I have some matters to attend to outside. I hope you can handle things here?"

After some discussion, Luo Wei had finished doing what he needed to do.

With Rita Rogan's condition stabilized, she obtained the desired Magic Eye transplant technology and is now aware of the progress of her research on the "Guardian Angel," as well as the crucial need for a massive amount of magic power.

Seeing that things were almost over, he prepared to get up and leave.

Rafe and Orange both agreed that there was no problem with this, and that the rest of the research could be left to them. Lowe's immediate priority was to get rid of the swarm of flies that were persistently buzzing around the area.

After confirming their respective tasks, the three of them nodded and stopped lingering to exchange pleasantries.

only--

"So...you really don't plan to have a baby first?"

Just as Rowe was about to leave, Rafe's eerie voice suddenly rang in his ears again.
