“…… Student? ”

Ivus narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at Cardinal Loki with his right hand behind his back.

The Venice on his shoulder narrowed his scarlet pupils at the same time.

Cardinal Loki glanced at Vignes, and the corners of his mouth with traces of stitching rose slightly: "You guy, you're not an honest person...... Should I say that it is worthy of Moriarty? The surname of this sin ......"

"What do you know?"

"A lot."

Cardinal Loki replied: "I know most of the secrets of this world, even more than you can imagine.

"Ivace...... Again, I do not wish to be your enemy. I know that if I fight you, I may be completely destroyed, so we might as well skip this step...... If you want to know anything, just ask. And I have to answer all my questions.

"For example...... The fact that you, as a fragment of the Celestial Division, were recreated by your 'grandfather' Jacob. ”

- It's different from what everyone else calls Eivas.

It is not a vague "sacred entity", but a very clear "fragment of the Celestial Division".

Ivus's heart sank slightly.

When he was almost taken away by the Celestial Celestial Division in the previous promotion ceremony, Ivus was almost convinced that he had an extremely close relationship with the Celestial Celestial Division. Now, this conjecture has only been re-verified from a third-party perspective.

“…… You haven't answered my question yet. ”

Ivas was silent for a moment, then looked at Cardinal Loki again, "He's from you...... What have you learned? ”

Loki's smile faded when he heard this.

His gradient hair, which reminded Ivus of a gas stove flame, suddenly began to be windless. The solid, stagnant flame map starts burning again.

Loki said slowly, "From me, he inherited my most important mystical skill, my stargazing tantra. ”

“…… Stargazing? ”

Evas muttered, "Adapted to the astrology of the path? ”

He remembered that Professor James had written several papers on astrology at a very young age.

His aptitude for mathematics and astrology was so great that Ivas thought he was a man of wisdom and adaptability. With his enthusiasm for astrology in his youth, it was only reasonable for him to go to the church to learn more profound knowledge.

"It is the original text of astrology, the method of observation that was born when the second sun was broken. Many of the secrets I know are what the stars tell me.

"—The stars tell me that I will meet the heir of my destiny on that day. Then I met James Moriarty, who was studying.

"He was about the same age as you at the time, and he wasn't much older than a few years older. Before that, he had never been exposed to the Path of Adaptation, and he was not even a transcendent being. But as the stars say, he's smart and quick...... He studied from me for three years and mastered the essence.

"He learned astrology from me, and when he has nothing to do, he will stand here and accompany me to observe the church. Although he is not an elf and has no worries, he is also passionate about helping others and preaching on controlled fire with my followers. ”

"Doesn't sound like a problem." Ivas chimed in.

Cardinal Loki replied: "The problem is that for a short-lived...... He had too many secrets in his hands, and too many of them. His worries were far beyond his ability. But that's nothing...... As an astrologer, you can see too much and do too little, and one day you will adapt. ”

"But he didn't."

"Yes, but he didn't. The more secrets he sees, the more he wants to interfere in the world. He read a lot of books from the Thirteenth Ring and visited many teachers. The original one-year study abroad period was repeatedly extended by him to four years...... After seeking true knowledge, he returned to King Avalon Law University to complete the rest of his coursework.

"At least then, I just thought he was going to make a difference for Avalon."

Cardinal Loki's voice was rational and calm, as calm as a recitation, without anger or even waves.

"He was only twenty-four years old when he left me. At that time, he was full of interest, passion, and well-read, and wanted to create a career of his own. And the next time I heard from him, it was twenty years later.

"—As far as I know, it was the witch named Anna Kingsford who changed him."

Cardinal Loki was not shy about sharing secrets.

Maybe it's because he wants to show kindness to Ivus, or maybe it's something that every astrologer has in common—because he knows more than he needs to know, he talks endlessly.

There is no doubt that this is information that Ivas has no access to.

Loki's words corroborated what Ivas already knew - Moriarty's radical idea of "premature death and necessary evil" was indeed inherited from controlled fire.

But listen to Loki...... He didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with his philosophy at all.

“…… You say he's chasing you, and you're going to be out of your mind. ”

"Yes."

"Are you going to steal Freya's elixir?"

Ivas asked.

Regardless of whether Loki is a prisoner or not, as the old man of the monitoring room, he must know who stole the "Tears of Time".

And unexpectedly, Loki didn't quibble or lie, but frankly admitted: "Indeed. ”

“…… Is this part of the 'necessary evil'? In order to be elected pope, he intended to use the tears of time and even murder the bishop to persecute the saint Globa? ”

"That's what you think."

Hearing this, Loki suddenly laughed: "This is what you don't know about me.

"—I don't care about the pope at all. All cardinals are shepherds, so what is the significance of the title of head of pastors? ”

"Don't you deny the attack on pure white?"

Ivas asked.

The corners of Loki's mouth rose slightly, and he nodded slightly, but did not respond.

And Ivus asked, "And what is your purpose?" Or, if you do succeed the pope – what are you going to do?

"If you're not going to be my enemy, then the answer to 'what am I going to do?' should tell me. You've said it, and you've got it all you ask. ”

"—Controlled Fire."

Cardinal Loki replied without hesitation: "I will carry out controlled fire and save the Eternal Church; I want to cut off the inheritance of the elves and give them a new lease of life.

"You also know that the elves' immortality comes from the curse of Ningpo; If the elves are truly healed, they will lose their long lifespan, and the Eternal Church will fall into chaos as a result, eventually dying out as time passes; The Church of the Nine Pillars will also lose its foundation as a result. I knew about this before Freya, and even before anyone else...... When I became an elf, I already knew what the root of elf immortality was.

"Although the name of the Eternal Church itself comes from the lineage of the Eternal Virgin, not the Pope—I would rather the Church of the Nine Pillars of God ultimately survive than the Church."

Cardinal Loki replied slowly, word for word: "For it is the candle that forgives my sins, not the great tree; It was the candles, not the Pope, who gave me new life.

"I am a believer in the Candle, not the Son of the Giant Tree and the Spirit Pearl. What about the elves, what about the giant trees, none of them has anything to do with me. I'm just on my own path. ”

“…… Rather than elves, they are more inclined to teach the country; Rather than church, more inclined to church. That's what you mean, right? ”

Ivus understood.

Loki really doesn't need to lie - he is indeed a devotee of the fifth energy level, and his will is strong.

He only serves the survival and interests of the Church of the Nine Pillars...... And the Eternal Saints are the core lineage of the Eternal Church, passed down from generation to generation and succeeding the Pope. In other words, these popes were always independent of the ecclesiastical system.

What Loki wants is not "to become the pope himself", but to "not let the saint succeed the pope".

He knew the principle of condensation, and therefore knew that it could not be cured and could not be cured; And the solution to alleviate the condensation is "controlled fire...... He himself knew that severing the inheritance could not cure the condensation, but only reduced the probability of condensation. But that's what he wants.

- Seal down the flames that can produce light, but at the same time scorch humanity.

This flame is the "Curse of Gloria" itself.

This is Loki's path of devotion - for the sake of the survival of the church and the church, and for the sake of the survival of the church and the church, the elves who are destined to condense die as soon as possible, so as not to affect the others.

That's exactly what it is......

Early death.
