Although they hadn't seen each other for a week, and even had two messenger messages and letters, Angel pursed her mouth a little excitedly, blinked her sour eyes, and took the initiative to open her arms to meet Klein again.

"I'm back."

She wrapped her arms around Klein's shoulders and whispered in his ear, the moist air she exhaled misted the lenses of her gold-rimmed glasses, obscuring those dark brown eyes.

This enthusiasm made Klein a little uncomfortable, he struggled and writhed a few times, and then hugged each other with his backhand, and the two stood in the center of the living room, not separated for a long time.

"Ahem—"

A slightly embarrassed light cough came, and Angel woke up like a dream, let go of her hands, and felt a little hot on her face.

"Now that I've safely sent Angel back here, it's time for me to get back to my business."

Mr. Azik pressed the top hat on his head and bowed politely, and even if he recalled the course of his life, the humor and humor of Mr. Rune were still reflected in him.

"That aura similar to the 'Grim Reaper' reminds me of more things, maybe I'll focus on finding clues near the Berserk Sea in the future, but you have to be careful, the power there is not accessible in the middle sequence."

With that, a smile appeared on his lips.

"Don't worry, I haven't forgotten anything else this time."

The surrounding colors darkened and faded, and Azk's figure disappeared into the living room.

Angel then understood the meaning of his last sentence, and secretly glanced at Klein, and when he saw that he had also looked over, the two looked at each other and smiled.

But when Mr. Azik interrupted him, the two lost their minds, not to mention that this was not a reunion after a long separation, Angel quickly cleaned up his mood, sat on the single sofa by the balcony, and told Klein everything that happened on Para Island.

"Senior deacons who failed to be promoted, connected by nightmares, small towns day after day, tourists who treat copper mines as gold......"

Klein was also a little dumbfounded, and his experience this week was no less than that of many of the major events he had been involved in in Byam.

One of the things that surprised him the most was the senior deacon Pierce, who was hiding in the mines.

There are only twenty-two senior deacons and archbishops in the Church of the Night, and they are almost the top of the church except for the Pope, and they are also popular candidates for high order, if not high order.

Of course, the former Ince Zangwill is also one of them, but the trajectory of the two is completely different, Zangwill stole the level 0 seal, and in order to jump to the path of promotion, he created the Tingen Evil God Advent Event, killing hundreds of civilians, as well as the leader of Tingen's Night Watch team, Dunn Smith.

Pierce Turner struggled with his own desires and evil thoughts for half a year after his madness, and even took the initiative to face the power of destruction when Angel cast the "Calamity" spell at the end, fulfilling his oath as a "guardian".

"So, you're going to send the extraordinary traits he left behind back to the Templar?"

After listening to this somewhat tortuous and somewhat nostalgic story, Klein sighed and asked instead.

"Yes, it was his last wish, but now that the extraordinary properties have been combined with a Night Emblem, it has become a tainted seal, and since I am not aware of the negative effects, I have temporarily sacrificed it to Mr. Fool for safekeeping. When Mr. Azik has his hands free, maybe the pollution problem can be solved, and then I may be able to have the messenger deliver it on my behalf, or I can return to the Northern Continent myself to return the extraordinary properties of this Sage. ”

Although strictly speaking, Pierce, who did not succeed in advancing to Sequence 4, could not be called a "Sage", Angel still called the High Deacon as a sign of respect.

"What about you? A lot seems to have happened in Byam this week, too? ”

After telling about her wonderful journey, Angel asked with a smile on her face.

"It's nothing, it's just that the followers of the 'sea god' Kavituwa launched a near-suicidal offensive in Baiam, and the god who once appeared in the form of a giant sea serpent even set off a tsunami to try to flood the entire island, and Daniz and I witnessed a high-level duel on the beach."

Klein's tone was flat, as if he was talking about what he had for breakfast, but the anticipation in the corners of his eyes could not be concealed at all.

It wasn't until Angel pretended to be indifferent and didn't ask that he couldn't help but continue:

"I also confirmed the identity of the blue-haired ghost ship captain and briefly collaborated, making a good impression on the military and the Storm Church when dealing with the extreme Poseidon cultists, and maybe we could use those identities in the future."

"Night, steam, now the military and the storm," Angel counted him with his fingers crossed, "It's better to believe this 'sea god' Kavituwa together, just make up five." ”

"With Mr. Fool, there are already five ......," Crane muttered under his breath, then changed the subject, "Moreover, this Poseidon is not even as good as a Sage of the Church of Storms, and the torrential rain and tsunami it set off quickly collapsed in front of the 'Sea King' Ion Courtman, and the fanatics who had planned to take advantage of the chaos to attack the garrison and the Church of the Storm lost their support and were easily defeated. ”

Speaking of the cardinals of the Church of Storms in this sequence 3, there was a glint of excitement in Klein's eyes, which was the envy of the high-ranking extraordinary, the desire for his power to change the terrain and turn the weather.

Looking at Klein's expression, Angel quietly put away her worries.

After seeing the tragic situation of Senior Deacon Pierce Turner, who failed to be promoted, she has been shaken in her pursuit of power and promotion to demigod, even if she digests the potions of Sequence 5 and collects all the materials to configure "despair", she still has to face the most critical level: the promotion ceremony.

As long as you are a little careless, you will fail to challenge the demigods in the promotion, and you may die on the spot is probably the best ending.

But thinking of Captain Dunn and other victims who died in the tragedy of the Divine Descent in the city of Tingen, thinking of the more than 100,000 people struggling in the great smog of Beckland, Ince Zangwill, who is at large, is still shrouded in the fog......

…… and Klein, who is also determined to take revenge and is seizing every opportunity to improve his strength.

Angel asked herself, no matter how many difficulties she faced, she couldn't stop her current pace.

"What's wrong?"

A soft inquiry sounded in her ear, and she gathered her thoughts and raised her eyebrows to look at Klein with a worried look on his face.

"I just thought of Pierce's ...... In the end, he had no relatives, no friends to entrust, and after his death he was left with only the extraordinary characteristics left to the Church, and a reminder to posterity, which made me ......"

Before Angel could finish speaking, she was hugged tightly by Klein, and her arms were tied to her body, giving her a sense of security when she lost her freedom of movement.

"Don't worry, at least we'll remember each other."

Klein said in her ear.

yes, what am I worried about, I will remember him, and he will remember me...... The corners of Angel's mouth turned up, and she gently pulled her arms apart and wrapped them around Klein's waist.

"I ......"

Bang –

The unlocked door was pushed open, and Daniz "Blaze" walked in with disguised black hair, and while squeezing his eyebrows and smearing the makeup paint that concealed his appearance more evenly, he said aloud:

"Why aren't you ready, didn't you make an appointment yesterday, and we will go to the 'Red Theater' together this evening......"

Only then did he realize that Gelman Sparrow was not the only one in the living room, but also Angelica, who had been standing and disappearing for a week, to go to the medium-range island thousands of miles away to be busy with important things.

It is said that the whole "sick lieutenant general" pirate ship was solved alone, and the bounty rose to 8,000 pounds Angelica Thatch!

Feeling the eyes of the two of them looking at him without emotion, Daniz tugged at the wig on his head, showed an embarrassed smile on his disguised face, laughed dryly, and said as he stepped back:

"Heh, heh, I seem to be mistaken, I made an appointment with someone downstairs, who ......"

Bang, he closed the door with his backhand, and he didn't care about the 6,000 pound bounty, and ran downstairs with a smoke.

Suddenly quiet, as if a cold wind was blowing in the living room, Angel looked at Klein expressionlessly, and after a moment spoke:

"Red Theater?"

"If I say that Daniz and I are going to go there to find clues to the 'Blood Admiral' first mate, you ......"

"I believe it."

Angel interrupted him and nodded in reply.

"But, I'm going to check it out."

"Huh?"

……

Bang, bang......

Listening to a few muffled noises from upstairs, Daniz, who had slipped to the first floor, shrunk his neck, always feeling as if he had intensified the conflict between the man and woman on the third floor because he couldn't speak clearly.

He wanted two shit adventurers who had been teasing him with words and actions all day long to fight to the death, and he didn't want to lose important combat power against Sennol, the "blood general", so he stood in front of the "Blue Wind" hotel with his wig on his head, and did not move for a long time.

————

Beckland, the secret office beneath the church of St. Samuel.

The large room was lit only by a few gas lamps, and most of the space was shrouded in darkness, but the "Red Gloves" and the deacons on night watch, who walked through it or sat at the table to read the papers, seemed unaffected.

This is the distribution center for the information reported by the Dark Night Church in various places, and after classification, most of them will be assigned to a dedicated team to investigate clues and carry out tasks, and the rest of the archived files are waiting to be consulted.

"Byam's telegram, the Storm Church's 'Sea King' Ion Cottman clashed with the local primitive god 'Poseidon', and suppressed each other in a days-long confrontation, and the local garrison went on a hunt for the Poseidon fanatics......"

"Give it to the squad in Port Prieze, they have informants in the Rorsted Islands."

"The report of the Diocese of Tingen handed over the two family members of the fallen night watchman to the diocese of Beckland for continued protection, well, they live in the North End, on Krewood Street, near the church."

"Team Al Hazen is in charge of key conservation targets in the North Side, so let them pay attention."

"In the application of the port of Enmat, a fraudster who falsely claimed to be a relative of the 'Fool' was killed by a lightning bolt after reciting the honorific name of the 'Fool' while defrauding, and Clement applied for access to the file related to the 'Fool'."

"Isn't Lord Sost's team investigating the case of the 'Fool' and the Tarot Card Ceremony? Handed over to them. ”

……

Messages circulated between the night watchers, quickly assigning them to the right people, until another message was picked up, causing a frown on one of the young "red gloves" in charge of the assignment.

After checking it twice, he snorted coldly and crumpled the telegram, but after thinking that it was not in order, he spread out the crumpled paper, flattened it, and stuffed it into a file bag with "invalid information" written on it, and threw it aside.

"What's that?"

The other deacon beside him asked, his work was done for the time being, and he was rather bored looking for a topic.

"Rorsted Islands transferred to Pritz and then to Beckland's report, and said......" The red glove was halfway through his speech, and when he saw the senior deacon on duty this month walking by, he quickly lowered his voice, "...... It is said that a high deacon died near the island of Midrange, far from the northern continent, and that he would return the items left behind at the right time. ”

"Oh, if we had a different name, maybe we would have investigated, but he actually made a rumor about His Excellency Saint Peirce......"

The senior deacon behind him looked around the busy scene in the office, nodded in satisfaction, and paced out of the room, onto the winding staircase back to the ground.

It was not until all the conversation had disappeared from his ears that the tall deacon, who was not very tall, had short dark brown hair, and was about forty years old, stopped.

A faint smile appeared on his face.
