Chapter 14: Atley

"I had always thought that all I had forgotten was that He thought I shouldn't remember, that I wasn't strong enough to fight His will. But now it seems that if it were 'me', maybe I could still find some clues in my psyche? ”

"But the pollution I'm carrying is a problem."

"Trevor had said that if you don't probe my mind and memories, you won't be polluted by me. On the other hand, the pollution I carry is mainly in my memories, and once I try to explore my mind and memory, I am very susceptible to pollution, and the 'psychic' sent when I first discovered my illness and the Lady Baines after the events at the Abbey of Pavra have tried to inquire about my memories of some things and have changed their temperament or gone crazy. ”

"The psychic is said to have recovered after many purifications, and Ms. Baines is said to have been a little insane when I left Fenerport, but she was much better than she had been. But is their 'recovery' really recovery? Since my contamination is related to the transformation of the 'soul senders', have their souls changed without being noticed? After all, they're all just Sequence 7. ”

"Judging from the fate of the Pagani family, which has been entangled with the pollution from Him, and what I think is Him, since the end of the Quaternary Period, the pollution on my body is not so easy to get rid of."

"A family that has been able to establish itself from Fenerport to the present day and still retain the title of earl, even with the help of a lot of the power he has given, I don't believe that in such a long time, the entire family has never had an extraordinary person above the demigod, especially the Pagani family has always been extremely wary of the power he has given."

"Even if it were, as Trevor suggests, he might have made some deal with the gods and stood by to see what happened to the Pagani family. But for more than a millennium, the Pagani family has never made much progress in their research on ways to remove pollution, which is enough to show how difficult this pollution is. ”

"So how can the two Sequence 7 Extraordinaires resist this polluted transformation? Judging from the fact that it took a long time for them to return to normal, the church did not directly remove the pollution for them. Either the church doesn't have the means to get rid of their pollution, or they have mastered the way to get rid of it, but they are not prepared to do it for them. ”

"The former indicates that the source of this pollution is highly qualified, while the latter represents a certain attitude of the Church and even the gods, and it is difficult to say exactly what is the case."

Agnes frowned and sighed slightly.

"Forget it, they are all members of the church, and their affairs naturally have headaches for church people, and I don't need to think about these things now."

"All I have to think about is that if I want to explore my own mind with the power of the 'audience', I first have to make sure that they have the ability to resist the pollution I carry."

"And the pollution level I brought is very high, and the demigods and below are probably unable to resist, maybe it is more suitable for me to go directly to find the extraordinary items of the suitable 'audience' sequence?"

"Then I need to add another one to my next mission."

Agnes shook her head and lit the candle on her desk, using the candlelight to record the information she had received from Trevor in her journal.

This time the diary was written for nearly two pages, and Agnes stopped writing and closed the diary.

She stood up, put the journal in her suitcase, and opened the door and walked out.

At dusk, Anwa Castle is a little dim, with a slightly eerie feel to the dilapidated surroundings, and it looks like the castle of Sir Vampire from the ancient legend of Fenerport.

However, the owner of this castle did have the identity of a vampire, and also had the title of earl, Agnes couldn't help but think to herself.

The castle was extremely quiet, even the faint evening breeze at dusk, the sound of falling creeper blades could be heard clearly, and it vaguely seemed to constitute a piece of music with a little loneliness, which made Agnes subconsciously lighten her footsteps.

"Mr. Butler." With a vague feeling, Agnes found the other party by the stairs.

"Miss Agnes." The old man bowed to Agnes.

“...... Where is Mr. Pagni? Agnes asked bluntly.

The butler did not speak, but took out a piece of paper full of words from his bosom, and bowed down to Agnes and handed it to Agnes.

Agnes stretched out her hand to take it, and before she could open it, the butler said to Agnes, "Monsieur Earl said that if you have any other questions, you can convey them through me. ”

The butler hesitated for a moment, then added, "Mr. Earl said that he does not want to see you again, and hopes you will understand. ”

Agnes nodded thoughtfully and said, "I see." ”

The butler bowed again and said, "Whatever is in the castle, you can use it at will, young lady." If you have any other needs, feel free to call me by simply ringing the bell in front of the bed in your room. My name is Atli Pagni, you can just call me Atley. ”

"You're from the Pagani family too?" Agnes asked, looking at the old man.

Atley hesitated for a moment, then said in a hoarse voice, "I'm a member of the Pagani family. ”

"'Soul Carrier'?" Agnes asked.

Atley nodded.

"Judging by your outfit, I must have been serving Mr. Pagani for a long time." Agnes said casually.

Atley nodded hesitantly.

"'Vampire'?" Agnes asked again.

Atley nodded again.

Agnes didn't ask any more questions, but said, "I need a top hat, a long leather coat, a shirt and pants, and a pair of boots." ”

"Okay, they'll show up in your room tomorrow morning." Atley didn't ask Agnes why she was asking for the clothes, and bowed down.

"Is there anything else you need?" Atley asked Agnes again.

Agnes shook her head.

"Okay, Miss, dinner is ready, would you like to use it now?"

Agnes nodded.

"Okay, please come with me." Atley turned and led Agnes to the side of the room.

"Today's dinner, the first dish is black caviar and Bodivia ham, the first course is Fenerport pasta, and the main course is fried cowboy fillet with herb raw leg, and then served with the ...... after the meal"

The silent old man rarely chattered about the dinner he had made, and Agnes couldn't help but smile and shake her head, listening carefully to what the other party had to say.
