Mr. Azik not only helped Klein reseal the "Wriggling Hunger", but also directly gave the "Admiral of Hell" Ludville to Klein and made him a secret puppet.

According to Mr. Azik's explanation, the high level of the "Grim Reaper" path has a strong ability to suppress the lower level, and Klein still finds it incredible.

Ludville was in control of the spirit thread like that, but there was a precursor to a struggle in his body, and in the end he did nothing.

Klein even retrieved the "Fishman Sleeve Stud" that had been left on the ship.

With the help of the Grim Reaper's Ring and the Bronze Whistle, Mr. Azik led Crane to the Furious Sea, where he found the entrance to the gloomy tomb.

After leaving the mausoleum, Mr. Azik said goodbye to Klein.

He saw his half-split soul and learned about his resurrection as the "Grim Reaper" Sallinger. After making his choice, Azik is about to fall into an indefinite slumber, and he sends Crane back to his hotel room, agreeing that Crane will continue to write to him.

Crane clenched the ancient and delicate bronze whistle in his hand, and watched Mr. Azik disappear into the room, his heart inexplicably empty.

Mr. Azik gave up the other half of his soul and willingly remained in his current state to continue to sleep, and he did not know how long the next time the two would meet.

In the process of becoming dead again and again, I constantly forget everything in the past, and when I wake up, I have to look for the past experience......

Klein can't forget the peaceful smile on Mr. Azik's face when he made his choice.

When will he hear back from Mr. Azki?

At the same time, there was another thing that bothered Crane, the lady with dark eyes who was completely devoid of spirituality, told Crane an unusually short sentence:

"The emblem."

The night is also their predecessor, and the badge can communicate with her through dreams, which is something Esther said when she left the Night Emblem, and Crane remembers it well, but he never had the idea of using the item.

The beautiful lady with the hood, she, or rather his true identity, was already obvious.

Want to use it?

Crane sat in the hall above the gray mist, his citrine pendulum hanging from his hand, and he performed several divinations with varying words.

At least judging from the results of the divination, this matter is only good for Klein, not bad, and the goddess of the night has no hostility towards him.

But when he thought of the last time the lady sent herself into the Misty Town, it was hard to say whether it was "hostile" or not, and as a result, Crane had gained the recipe for the "Mystic Mage" in that crisis.

And after that incident, the investigation of this matter within the church did not last long, and it was more like someone was secretly suppressing it.

The goddess of the night has known about my existence for a long time? Even judging from the fact that Esther was admitted to Chanisman, there is a high probability that he knew about our fellow traversers. Since Esther knew the effect of the badge, she should have used it, and she didn't know if she had gotten the answer she wanted.

Crane left the Grey Mist, set up the prayer ritual, and then bestowed upon himself the silver Night Emblem that he threw onto the Grey Mist, which was convenient to carry.

Crane was still very apprehensive when he simply placed the emblem under the pillow, so he lay down on the bed and spent a lot of time calming his mind before falling asleep.

The peaceful darkness stretched until the dream suddenly appeared from it, and the moment Crane realized he was dreaming, his feet were already trampled in the endless night herbs and sleeping flowers.

The power of tranquility calmed his restlessness, and a thick darkness enveloped it, preventing Klein from seeing beyond.

A gentle light lit up from the darkness and drifted in Crane's direction, and it wasn't until it got close that Crane saw the figure that was obscured by layers of darkness.

A ball of light was held in the hands of the black shadow, and the light inside was exactly the same as Zoya on the gray mist, but it did not condense and hug, only slowly swirling and scattered points of light.

Klein hesitated, but after a few seconds, he lowered his head and pointed out the Crimson Moon in his heart: "Hello." ”

He didn't rashly call the other party "Goddess of the Night", and it would be even more embarrassing if he called the wrong person.

The other party's cold voice came directly from the dark shadow: "This is the first time we have officially met and communicated directly." I know you, Klein Moretti. You can call me 'Night'. ”

The goddess of the night, is it really Him? So I just stood before a true God?

Crane still felt a little incredulous, but still bowed respectfully, and he could not respond to such a conversation, so he remained silent for the time being.

The figure of the "dark night" nodded slightly: "You are very concerned about the situation of Azk Eggers?" ”

The question was much simpler, and Klein replied without hesitation: "Yes, Mr. Azik has been helping and guiding me since I was weak, and he has given me a lot of help and is a very important teacher for me. ”

"Since you want to help your teacher so much, you can ask Esther for something. If you open your mouth, she will definitely give it to you. ”

Crane was silent for a few seconds, he couldn't understand why Night was so sure that Esther would give it to him, that thing sounded precious, but Crane still asked, "What is that?" ”

"It's close to a bone spur from a longsword. A fragile piece of Death's bones, but one that can be used to transform the severed souls of Azk Eggers, and although there are few remains, it can help him stabilize his memories from the past. ”

Klein's eyes widened gradually, but because he was afraid of the identity of the figure opposite, he didn't express his doubts - why did Esther have such a thing?

She had said before that she had gotten the peculiar bone sword and named it "Pale Bone Nail", but she didn't show me the special ...... of the bone sword

As if seeing Klein's doubts, "Black Night" lightly moved and let the ball of light, which was similar to Zoya, float in Crane's direction and stop in front of him.

There was a smile in the voice of the night: "Esther will say that this is the 'guidance of fate', but many accidents have their inevitability. ”

Klein didn't reach out to touch the ball of light, but he seemed to know what Night wanted to get in exchange for him: "She knows Mr. Azik?" Know he's my teacher? ”

"No, Esther now knows nothing about the past. But Zoya knows, and knows everything about us. The smile in Night's voice was nowhere to be seen, "I didn't understand this until after the Cataclysm. ”

"Whatever Zoya has given us is for the sake of leaving the kingdom of the Lord of the Spirit Realm, but this is also based on His mission. Long before he descended into the real world, Zoya was firmly bound by her mission, even if she didn't even know it. ”

Klein quickly combined these words with what he knew, but he still didn't know enough, "You say partial, what is his complete mission?" ”

"Night" sighed softly, "It's 'resurrecting the Lord of Mystery', not 'giving birth to the Lord of Mystery'." Zoya's anchoring is an extremely precious ability for demigods, but for some paths......

"It is a shortcut that can more effectively awaken the 'Lord of Mysteries', who may be revived in any one of the extraordinary beings of a particular path, but some people are more suitable 'vessels'."

Klein felt that the amount of information that "Night" had told him was a bit too much, and he couldn't digest it for a short time: "That one ......"

"The previous 'Lord of Mysteries' is also the Lord of the Spirit Realm. This matter is a secret that others only discovered after a long period of contact with Zoya, and even Zoya or Esther did not know that there was such a huge hidden danger in this regard. ”

Klein was silent for a while, not knowing what to say for a while, just staring at the ball of light in front of him, remembering the "deal" that Zoya mentioned at that time.

Klein turned down the deal, initially fearing it would hurt Esther, but now that he thinks about it...... He dodged an extremely dangerous trap.

Seeing his hesitation and embarrassment, "Night" raised his hand, and the ball of light floated away from Klein's body again:

"If you get something like that, you can always sacrifice it to me in a ritual, and remember to think about what you want, it's worth a fairly worthwhile deal."

But Esther was gone, and there was no news at all. I haven't seen her since she gave me this badge. Klein said hastily.

He noticed that the darkness at the edge of the dream was twisting and turbulent, and the deep sleeping flowers under his feet were slowly flickering, transforming into slender patches of color.

The figure of the "night" became blurred, and only the glimmer of light in his hand was still bright and clear: "Esther will be fine, because her death is worthless, so she will definitely survive, but ......"

Crane wanted to say something, but the dream was sinking into the dark shadows, and all he could hear was the indifferent voice, ethereal to his ears.

"I don't know if she'll be the Esther you know."

Klein opened his eyes from the bed.

He didn't feel like he had slept yet, but like he had just experienced a fierce battle, and the soreness all over his body felt like he had been beaten, and the dizziness caused by the spiritual drying caused everything in front of him, including the ceiling, to spin wildly.

Such a strong reaction forced Klein to close his eyes in bed and lie down for a while longer.

After a moment of meditation, his rapid heartbeat returned to normal, and Crane supported himself on his elbows and climbed out of bed.

His eyebrows were also throbbing, the after-effects of this "friendly exchange" were much more uncomfortable than Klein expected, didn't Esther react?

However, when Crane lifted the pillow, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

The silver Night Emblem had been shattered into several pieces.

So this became a one-time calling card? Obviously, I still have a lot of things that I haven't had time to ask......
