Chapter 17: The Night's Gaze

Lewis's mind was about to explode with fear, and an endless whisper rang in his ears, which belonged to Amun, from personal suppression. He took a step back and frantically pulled his gun from his pouch and aimed it at Amon.

"I'm looking forward to you coming to me." Amon looked at the sky and smiled indifferently, he opened his mouth and slowly spit out a sentence: "You and I have always been under the watchful eye of the night. ”

As Amon's voice fell, his body disappeared piece by piece as if it had been erased by an eraser. At the end of the alleyway, there seemed to be a young lady in a nun's dress who smiled at him, but it was only an illusion for a moment.

Lewis came back to his senses, he tapped four times on his chest, and said solemnly, "...... Praise be to you, Goddess. ”

At this moment, his belief in the goddess has never been more devout.

As the battle ended, Lewis heard the footsteps of pedestrians again, and his surroundings became chaotic, indicating that what Amon had stolen had returned.

Lewis went back to pick up the black top hat, and he forced back his inner pleasure and pretended to be careless and walked home.

Now that what was stolen by Amon has returned, it is time for Mandy, who has disappeared for a long time, to go home, and under the influence of the original owner of the body, Lewis feels the excitement that he has not felt for a long time.

I really want to drink a tomato beef soup cooked by Mandy, then eat a sandwich full of chicken, and fall asleep to Mandy's soft voice.

Of course, this is premised on the fact that he must meet the real Mandy, not an imposter disguised by Amon.

Pushing open the door in the Nightshade neighborhood again, the feeling of danger was gone, and Lewis went back to the room to see that Mandy wasn't there.

"Let's go out and find it."

After sitting in the empty room for a while, Lewis began to wait impatiently, and he went to the bank where Mandy had worked, as he remembered.

Unfortunately, it was almost completely dark at this time, and even the banks were closed.

"Hello, may I ask Mandy. Is Ms. Harvey home? Lewis met a slightly chubby gentleman who he knew was Mandy's colleague Faulkner. Ban, and Mandy have a pretty good relationship.

"Mandy. Harvey? Faulkner touched his hairless head, and said, "Sir, I don't think I know Mandy. Harvey, who are you? ”

Lewis froze in place, the hairs on his back standing on end, and he felt an indescribable malice.

"I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person." Lewis lowered his head and turned to leave.

"What a weirdo, what Mandy. Harvey? Faulkner got into the carriage beside the road, and the carriage clattered and ran, bringing out a series of familiar sounds.

Lewis wandered aimlessly through the streets, not knowing what was wrong, but remembering what Amon had said before he vanished.

"Looking forward to seeing each other next time? Is that what it means? ”

Lewis laughed at himself, although he didn't know what Amon was thinking, he would never go to Amun, and with his own strength, he could also find Mandy.

Back home, Lewis went to Mandy's room, pulled out Mandy's usual necklace, and entered an ethereal state.

"Mandy. Harvey is still alive......"

After meditating three times, Lewis saw the necklace spin in a clockwise direction, and then swayed.

Divination is interfered with again, or the preconditions are insufficient to make divination possible.

"Mandy. Harvey's location. ”

Writing the divination sentence, Lewis holds the necklace in his hand, and then lies down on Mandy's bed, and he wants to use the dream divination method.

Closing his eyes, Lewis gradually drifted into an ethereal state.

Through the white light in front of him, Lewis reached a place of extreme darkness, where there was no sun or moon in the sky, only the lightning that streaked across the sky brought bursts of light and allowed him to see what was happening in front of him.

"Godforsaken Lands!" Lewis subconsciously shouted out his conjecture that if Amon hid Mandy in the Godforsaken Land, the pendulum divination would indeed be disturbed, because the evil god, the true Creator, was sleeping in the Godforsaken Land.

Walking around, Lewis began to look around, clinging to the glimmer of hope that Mandy was still alive and healthy, and that he hadn't become a monster or become polluted.

The lightning subsided, and Lewis was completely plunged into darkness, but then, a light lit up in front of his eyes, and Mandy appeared in sight in a white dress.

"Sister!" Lewis stepped forward, his face flushed slightly with excitement, it was a good dream.

"We meet again, dear brother." Mandy didn't know where to get a monocle, he put it on his right eye and pinched it.

Lewis twitched the corners of his mouth, and the dream turned into a nightmare in an instant, and his dream divination pointed to Amon. Fortunately, he had already guessed that there might be something wrong with the divination, so he didn't show panic.

"Where the hell did you take Mandy? Blasphemer, Amun. Lewis suppressed the anger in his heart and asked.

"I stole Mandy. Harvey's fate, so, whatever method you use to find, will eventually point to me. Amon conjured up a square table and a few benches, and several doppelgangers gradually solidified, shouting one, two, three, while they began to busily boil water and prepare dishes.

In a short time, the steaming coffee was on the square table, and Mandy put three sugar cubes in the black tea and stirred it with a spoon.

"I think you should listen to my conditions." Mandy took a sip of his coffee, put the cup down, and said slowly, "When you choose a certain path, friends and enemies are doomed." ”

"You are the path of fate, and I am the wrong way, we are not enemies, we can even be friends, Lewis." Mandy explained, "You may not be able to see your fate yet, but as long as you become my dependent, I will return Mandy to you and solve some 'little problems' for you." ”

"Become your dependent?" Lewis couldn't help but think of what happened to Klein, and sneered: "The price of fate is borne by me, and the dividends are inherited by you, right?" ”

"You're more knowledgeable and know more than I thought." Mandy couldn't help but applaud and sighed: "That's really what I've always done, but you're different, not only will I not steal your fate, but I'll also help you become a god." ”

"I'm sorry, I can't agree to your request." Lewis didn't believe Amon at all, he had no desire to talk any more, and after exiting the dream, he opened his eyes, looked at the ceiling made of fir wood, and sighed.

Using divination, he may not be able to find Mandy, so he can only think of other methods.

For now, it seems that if there is a true god willing to help him deal with Amun, he will soon find Mandy. But it was clear that he could not afford to pay the price that the true God would have to pay.

Or maybe he used the trick and worked hard to digest the potion until one day, so that he could become a god.
