Tuesday, December 12th.

In the morning, while Varina was catching up on his sleep in his room, two of his neighbors were on the move.

They're moving.

In the past two days, two nights in a row, they have encountered some strange things that are extremely scary, such as the inexplicable change of position of the furniture, the female ghost in the mirror, and so on.

The most outrageous thing is that when they want to go to church to pray, they feel dizzy and in a trance, and the strongest of them is the man in charge, even to the point of angina.

If that's bad news, there's another piece of good news.

Just this morning, the landlady took the time to come over, refunded their rent, and forced them to move out at once, not for a moment.

It's a godsend!

The room was haunted, and they were worried, so the landlady made a request, and they hurriedly agreed, and left in less than an hour with large and small packages.

Not long after they left, the landlady called in two maids to scrub the vacant room.

In the afternoon, a maid and several porters brought large bags of luggage and placed them in the room that had just been vacated.

It all happened during Varina's catch-up sleep.

So, when he got up and went out, he didn't realize that his neighbor had changed people.

In the evening, a lady arrived.

She was tall in a long pale yellow dress, with shaggy dark brown hair draped over her shoulders under a plain white mesh dome hat.

If Varina was here, he would have recognized the lady as the witch Qili.

Qi Li first looked at her room, and when she saw that she was satisfied, she went to the outside of Varina's room and knocked on the door.

Varina was out of the house, and of course no one answered.

Qi Li was slightly surprised, smiled slightly, and went back to her room next door.

Although her room has been decorated by a maid, everything will not go well, and there are some things that she has to adjust by herself.

After more than an hour, Qili, who had changed into light home clothes, knocked on Varina's door again.

Of course, there was still no response.

……

Iron Gate Street, Brave Bar.

Once again, Varina meets Marić in the card room.

This time, the scene in the chess room was different.

Although the dozen or so living corpses who usually sat around the table and played cards were still there, they were all crowded into the row of sofas on the side, quiet and neat.

Marić sat at the table with his hands on the table, again unplayed.

Varina sat down across from Marić and saw that the malice in his eyes as he stared at the table was deeper than usual.

It seems that the curse he bears is far stronger than what I am bearing now.

Varina herself felt that as night fell, the strength of the curse on the "Prisoner's Ring" increased a lot, and it was still improving.

He hadn't been able to fully control it before, and he scared a drinker.

But after adapting, Varina didn't have too much trouble coping.

But looking at Marić's appearance now, it seems that with the improvement of the sequence, the strength of the curse attached to it will be enhanced even more?

Otherwise, there is no way to explain the situation at hand.

Through the plot of the original book, Varina believes that Sharon and Marich are most likely the best of today's temperance members.

At the time of the full moon, even Marich is like this, so it's no wonder that moderation is in a difficult situation now.

"Unleash the ability like you did last time," Marić said on his own initiative, "how long can you hold out?" ”

"It should be more than 5 minutes."

"Of course, that was the case last time, and it's hard to say this time."

Varina gestured with her eyes to the ring on her right index finger.

"That's enough," Marić said, "for the first time when the Midnight Curse is at its strongest, you're at my command." ”

"Yes." Varina nodded.

Marić has been on his own, never mentioning Sharon, and Varina cooperates by pretending not to know.

He knew very well that tonight was the weakest time for Marić, and he was willing to meet with him by taking a lot of risks, of course, to let Sharon hide as a hole card.

Judging by the appearance of those living corpses, there is a high probability that they will be handed over to Sharon to control tonight.

Varina didn't think that simply signing a contract would give him full trust right away.

Maybe it's to preach, maybe it's to help Varina understand the idea of temperance, maybe it's just to worry that Varina will be boring......

Anyway, the silence didn't last long, and Marić pulled out a canon and put it on the table, pushing it in front of Varina.

"This is the former sacred book of the Rose School, you can take a look." He sighed, "Of course, it's the Rose School that once upheld the idea of moderation, and it has nothing to do with the current Indulgence School. ”

Varina looked at the book with a cover made of the leather of an unknown animal, and sighed in her heart.

This is a precious out-of-print resource...... Anyone who dares to appear on the bright side will definitely be destroyed by the current Rose School.

When he turned the page, the first thing he saw was the creation myth and human history, well, the bound god version.

"The Creator awoke from the chaos, broke through the darkness, created the first rays of light, and Himself became completely integrated into the universe, incarnated into all things, His body became the earth, became the stars, His eyes became the sun and the red moon, and part of His blood rushed into the sea and rivers, nourishing and giving birth to life......"

"His lungs are transformed into spirits; His heart evolved into a giant; His liver evolved into a tree man; His head evolved into a dragon; His kidneys evolved into a feathered serpent; His hair grew into an immortal bird; His ears evolved into wolves; His mouth and teeth evolved into a different species; His remaining bodily fluids evolved into a sea monster, the essence of which was the Naga; His stomach, his small intestines, and the evil parts of his body evolved into demons, evil spirits, and all sorts of unknown evil beings, and man was born from his wisdom......"

This is the First Age, the Age of Chaos.

According to the Holy Scriptures, the "bound gods" were born from the mouth of the Creator, awakened in the Second Age, and together with other gods, blessed and helped humanity through the cataclysm of the Third Age, and fell into a deep sleep again.

In the Quaternary Period, when catastrophes such as the "Battle of the Four Emperors" and the "Pale Plague" occurred one after another in the northern and southern continents, the weakened "bound gods" were forced to wake up early to provide shelter for the humans in the southern continent.

In the Fifth Age, humans who were protected by the "bound gods" became his followers and formed the Rose School.

After reading this version of history, Varina found that the "spirit angel" of the xenomorph king, the "god of spirit things" of the "redeeming rose", and the current "bound god", Tolzner, except for some spring and autumn brushwork and excessive beautification of himself, there is no major problem with the recorded history.

After all, the history of the current orthodox seven gods and their holy scriptures is not much different from this.

Of course, when it comes to the harvest from the sacred scriptures, Varina feels that perhaps the most valuable is the honorific name of the "Bound God":

"Co-master of all xenomorphs;"

"The perfect union of spirit and matter;"

"Bound by pollution and curse."
