Merlin nudged his monocle.

A blue ring appeared in front of the glasses, and then the streamer-glowing auxiliary disks and glowing runes unfolded, making it look like a virtual panel.

He stared intently at the tome in Aihuas's hand, and after looking at it for a while, he suddenly frowned slightly, revealing a somewhat puzzled expression.

…… What is the Grimoire of Sins?

As an apostle of the path of wisdom, Merlin certainly has the ability to identify transcendent items. In fact, during the Round Table period, Merlin was the best appraiser in Avalon.

He could see the effect of this thing.

However, he didn't know what "magic cards" and "sin cards" were.

- Is this the inheritance brought about by the Divine Entity?

"Ivus," Merlin asked cautiously, "you just ...... Did you see anything special? ”

“…… Something special? ”

"It's what I called the 'Divine Entity' earlier. It could be a snake, or a ring, or a cloud of smoke, or a demon. It is the will that resides in the remains of the dream demon. ”

Merlin offered a slightly more precise answer: "Do you have any impressions?" ”

Despite being in front of Ivus, Merlin maintained a mysterious posture as if he knew everything. But he didn't know much, and even Merlin himself was surprised by the call of fate.

His motivation for coming to the "Valley of Beheading" in the first place was simply to check the Shadow of Avalon ritual. And this is the information he only got after he saw Ivus in his dream.

Upon examination, he discovered that Jacob had not only changed the ritual he had left behind, but also something else he had left behind.

Merlin even saw Vivien's woman nearby...... She was not an apostle who ran out to play like herself, but directly abandoned the power of the path of love and was reincarnated as a mortal.

Merlin was taken aback by this unusual behavior - because the woman was not the type to put herself in a passive position anyway, and although she seemed crazy and extreme, she always kept her sanity.

Vivien is the type who is very clear about her own purpose and is cruel to others as well as to herself. Although she has done many crazy things, those things are not emotionally oriented, but profit-oriented...... Her madness is mainly reflected in the speed with which she "abandons".

Most people will always have a nostalgia for what they already have. If you encounter any problems, you will try to solve them within the scope of what you can solve. Even if you don't need something for the time being, you won't just throw it away, but keep it to see if you can use it later.

But Vivien wasn't.

She sincerely fell in love with Merlin and devoted herself to fiery love. And after she fulfilled her purpose from Merlin's side, she directly and coldly severed this connection and sealed Merlin into the tree;

She also took care of Lancelot like a mother, and was promoted to apostle by virtue of this great accomplishment. After accomplishing her goal, she decisively severed the mother-son relationship and never saw Lancelot again.

She's always looking for more, less for more. And she always finds more.

And now she did not hesitate to abandon the identity and power of the apostle, and fled directly into the material realm - that posture can only be described as an escape, because her reincarnation must not have been approved by Kagetenji. In other words, she even gave up everything she had so far and became a mortal again.

This made Merlin feel uneasy.

Following this clue further, he found the remains left by the dream demon in the promotion ceremony of Evas, and found the Book of Law and the seal left by Jacob, and found the knowledge of the Ouroboros Ring Ritual from it.

In the end, it was only thanks to the information provided by Yeats's undetermined disloyal werewolf that Merlin finally got the whole picture of the whole thing one step ahead of Ivace - to be exact, it was actually ten minutes earlier than Ivus.

But that's all he knows.

In the face of Merlin's inquiry, Ivas was moved.

He suddenly realized that this seemed like a good opportunity......?

The secrets that Ivas knew before, whether it was the way the Scholar of Mortal Sins had been transferred, or anything else, Ivas couldn't tell anyone else.

Because he didn't have a reasonable source of information - he didn't know anything about the Otherworld, and the only knowledge he could get about the Otherworlds came from his adoptive father, James's study.

But Ivas pulled out the ritual that reincarnated Meg and gave Sherlock a new class he had never heard of.

Both Meg and Sherlock must have had doubts about Eivus. But Meg is inclined towards pragmatism and doesn't want to if she can't figure it out; Sherlock had already decided not to be serious with Ivace...... And then it can't always be that way.

And now is a great opportunity!

"I did see something."

Thinking of this, Aihuas had a serious expression: "I saw the past, and I saw my grandfather talking to a mysterious being. And that being had granted my grandfather some special knowledge—including some rituals that I had never seen before...... In addition to this, he showed some future intelligence. ”

"Future?"

Merlin wasn't interested in the ritual, but he repeated it after hearing the future, but he tilted his head and nodded, "Oh, that's reasonable—do you remember what he said?" ”

He didn't say much, and it was all riddles. Like the prophecies of the prophets...... But since then, a lot of knowledge has suddenly flowed through my head. They skimmed by, and then almost all of them vanished, leaving only a vague impression. ”

Ivas said seriously: "But I feel that as long as I meet a certain condition, I can remember!" ”

Every word he says is true.

Even if Merlin is taking a polygraph, he can only get the answer "the truth".

But Ivus changed the order so subtly, as if what he was seeing was not ritual knowledge, but fragments of the future.

He spoke, "For example, the Divine Being said...... 'The apostles chosen to be the pillars and the sacrifices are the sacrifices of the great beasts.'" I think the meaning of this sentence is ......"

Ivas said this, and suddenly paused.

Merlin looked at him curiously, but Ivas's face suddenly changed and he looked at the sky.

- Originally, he just picked up a sentence that he was familiar with, and wanted to fool Merlin.

But Ivas himself was only halfway through speaking, and suddenly he understood the meaning of this sentence!

Because in that moment, Ivus figured out something.

In the game, the original "Aihuas" is the discoverer of the profession of Grave Sinist. In the same way, he was also the first Lord of the Great Beasts......

When Jacob and the "Divine Entity" left these words, Ivas had not yet been born. In other words, even if Ivas has traveled since birth, he just has no awakening memories for the time being...... Then he won't change the world more than ten years ago before he crosses over.

In other words, even according to the original line of the world, Jacob must have left this book here!

So when did Eivas get the promotion of the Scholar of Mortal Sins?

Because Ivus didn't know that story, he could only reason about what happened at that time from the subsequent setting.

At that time, Avalon was gone, and his adoptive father, James, was missing. Until the advent of the Fallen Heaven Division, "Aihuas" was only a rookie demon scholar who had just reached level 30 because he was unwilling to use humans as ritual materials. Running around with the player, you can't get anything at all.

And at that time, the Fallen Heaven Division was still alive. In other words, "Aihuath" will not be able to change to this class until the player and Isabel defeat the Fallen Celestials.

At that time, Avalon had already been transformed into a country of shadows. Judging from the fact that Hayna had already turned into a "hyena" at that time, Cape Eagle Village probably no longer exists.

In other words, after the original plot of "Evas" ended in the plot of the Church and Star Antimony, and returned to Avalon with the player, he suddenly became a Scholar of Mortal Sin.

It is very likely that Aihuas obtained the "Book of Law" at that time, so that he could take out the promotion route of the Great Sin Scholar to the Lord of the Great Beast out of thin air!

[You must know that the apostles who were chosen to be the pillars and the sacrifices were the sacrifices of the great beasts]

[Words to restrain the grave sin!] 】

The words of the divine being rang out in the heart of Ivus.

- Great beast, great sin.

…… It's no wonder that the magic book he got is actually the monopoly of a major sin scholar who does not exist at all in the current version.

Ivus hadn't thought about it when he got it, but now he finally reacted—

It's the reverse of cause and effect!

Antecedents, Consequences –

Originally, Ivus got this book, and then he had these two professions!
