After discovering that the target of the "Mother Tree of Desire" was himself, Klein's thinking suddenly became much clearer.

The other party's design was seamless, and because all the executors thought it was aimed at "Emilius", my excellent "Faceling" role did not show any flaws, but became my own shackles, and I didn't even find a problem with divination...... He reflected on the experience of the past few days, and his back under the general's dress was cold.

Before accepting the commission, Crane performed his usual divination on the distracting gray mist, and came to the conclusion that playing "Emilius" would not pose a danger to him, so he gladly came and was paid 1,000 pounds.

Is the gray fog disturbed, and in a way that I am not aware of? Or is it not considered "dangerous" to become a dependant of the "Mother Tree of Desire"?

The most important thing is that this matter was easily and unharmed by him and Angel?

Of course, this is partly due to the fact that I am not as innocent as I was when I first came into this world, and I have not been seduced by Cynthia, and I have even ignored her in dreams influenced by desire......

And Angel's quick arrival, and the blood of Anne in her hands, have made this pollution planned by the "Mother Tree of Desire" a joke.

Extrapolating backwards from the results, the divination results on the gray fog were "not dangerous", and apart from the small wound on my shoulder and the fact that I didn't leave a precious "Ninth Law" charm, I didn't suffer anything at all, and even strengthened the experience of playing "Faceling......

If there is some kind of interference in it, then ...... Angel and I won't be "arranged" by someone again, right?

His mind was gradually filled with a paste called doubt, and he couldn't draw a conclusion for the time being, and he didn't want to make Follett Ken in front of him wait too long, so he spoke:

"In addition to this recent incident, what other things have you done that violates the laws of the kingdom and violates customs?"

This abruptly eased question made Follett stunned, and his originally flustered expression took on a hint of flattery.

The admiral is no longer angry? Does he think it's worth being hostile to the "Mother Tree of Desire" for the sake of a mistress and the "Rose School"?

Ask me if I have violated the law, is it to let me be his "black glove" and do some dirty work that is inconvenient to explain to the secretary just now?

Follett, who thought that he had escaped and his mind began to come alive, was a little better when he was crushed, and began to introduce his crimes in recent years.

Fearing that "Emilius" would think that he was incompetent, he did not hide it in the slightest, and even exaggerated it a little.

What executes the betrayals, skins them alive, and cuts off all the bulging parts of their bodies; What has tarnished many ladies under the pretext of the sectarian idea of "liberating nature"; What is it that in order to seize property, kill the whole family, and not even let go of the children......

Adding fuel to his words, he was pleased to see a satisfied smile on the admiral's face in front of him.

"It's okay, that's enough."

Klein said with a smile, but his eyes were cold.

He stood up from behind the table, came to Follett, who was still kneeling on the ground, raised his left hand, and the palm of the black leather gloves slowly cracked into a translucent mouth several times larger than the palm of his hand, and the two rows of illusory teeth inside looked like spikes from hell.

"Ah......h

A short scream echoed in the study, but it was blocked by the barrier set by Lu Er'an, and it was not heard in the slightest.

It wasn't until the "Wriggling Hunger" had eaten his fill that Klein silently picked up the extraordinary properties of the "madman" on the ground, used the flames to burn the remaining pieces of clothing, and by the way, set fire to a paper figure, annihilating everything that happened in this study, and then pulled the bell and asked the blonde secretary waiting outside the door to lift the ban and enter the room.

"Tell me to go down and let the naval base cooperate with Olawe's police system to clean up the 'Celestial Sect' cultists on the whole island, and it is best to catch the members of the 'Rose School' behind them."

Klein coldly gave the order, attributing the whole thing tonight to the cultists' schemes.

He believes that this is in line with the reaction of a superior who has just been calculated and has lost the woman he loves, and as a demigod of the military, his reasons for fighting local cults are also very legitimate.

Moreover, it is also in my own interests......

Thinking like this, he felt that the "Faceling" potion in his body and the act of acting in his body were once again compatible, and he was partially digested.

————

Tired of returning to the residence, Angel took a hasty bath, calmed down her inner restlessness, changed into a light dress, and then completely relaxed and lay down on the large sofa in the living room.

This trip to Admiral Emilius's mansion dealt with the tainted general's mistress, Cynthia, who was not physically harmed, but was also spiritually depleted and in urgent need of rest.

Therefore, when she found that the blonde secretary showed signs of awakening, she immediately left the scene incognito, and by the way, the barrier formed by Annie's blood stimulation was lifted, so that no one from leaving the entire building could not leave.

Annie......

She stretched out her right hand and looked at the palm of her hand, unlike the teardrop-shaped mark formed after being pulled into the tarot meeting by Mr. Fool, the symbol of the overlapping sword and shield that appeared after using Anne's blood just now disappeared at the base of the palm, and the skin scratched by the metal bottle had healed, but a few gray marks could still be seen.

"The use of that drop of blood strengthened my bond with her?"

Gently stroking where the symbol was hidden, feeling a slight itch on her skin, Angel smiled a little, but was quickly replaced by worry.

Klein is still there to clean up the mess, waiting for the real Admiral Emilius to return, and why would the so-called "Mother Tree of Desire" plan such a conspiracy in the days he is playing? Is it towards Emilius, or toward Cranes?

If I hadn't gotten to the scene and rushed to the scene, he might not have been able to deal with this crisis easily, that is, my divination saved him...... But what kind of hidden power does the strange scarlet and gray mist of divination come from?

In hindsight, it is clear that successful divination is one of the keys to solving the problem, which means that there is a force that is helping me, or is it guiding me to help Klein?

Angel was half-lying on the couch, with a lot of thoughts in her head, but like Klein, who was thinking about the "Mother Tree of Desire" attempt in the mansion in the middle of the mountain, she did not get a final conclusion, but quickly fell into a deep sleep under the light of the crimson moonlight outside the window, and gradually regained her spirituality and physical strength in the dream.

"Klein ......"

Not knowing what she dreamed of, she twisted her body and called softly.

The moonlight was like a light veil, covering her body.

————

For the rest of the day, Crane stayed at Emilius's villa, canceling all scheduled arrangements for the same reason: he had been slightly injured in the attack of the Celestial Cult and could not travel.

This is the prerogative of the demigods, even if his younger brother, Auston, the governor of Olavi, is stripped of his official title for violating certain bottom lines, as long as Emilius is not personally involved and does not make a big mistake, his actions can be forgiven.

After all, in any organization, a young and strong demigod is the absolute backbone.

The minions wounded in last night's attack were quickly replaced, the guards were replaced, and the Storm Church's substitutes for punishment on Olawe Island came and took a few unlucky people who were actually tainted, who would be evaluated after treatment to decide what to do next.

"I hope that the methods of the substitutes will not be much rougher than those of the night watchers......"

Crane sighed and looked at the garden under the study window, the number of guards and maids around him was obviously smaller than in the previous two days, and this was the result of the coordination of several parties and the temporary addition of manpower.

As the general's secretary, he has to push off all the banquets and meetings for Klein, take care of everything in the villa, as an extraordinary person, he has to coordinate with the punishers and the military, and finally, as a soldier, he has to lead the team to fight the celestial sect and complete the orders of his superiors.

Under the careful arrangement of the other party, Klein was able to rest comfortably in the villa for a day, enjoy high-standard food, flip through the general's collection of books, listen to the constant "good news" of the arrest operation, and after dark, take a beautiful bath and return to the bedroom.

Of course, it was still the second bedroom furthest from the master bedroom, the master bedroom had been stirred up by Cynthia and was in ruins, and it was impossible to live in it anytime soon, and he also had a lot of shadows there.

It wasn't until the wee hours of the morning that Klein was awakened from his normal dream, subconsciously looked around him, listened to the sound outside the door, and was relieved to find that there was nothing unusual.

No, there are people who do ...... His spirit was alert, and he looked to the door, where a middle-aged man had appeared at some point.

Turning over and getting out of bed, Crane approached the door and found that the other party was Emilius, who had been gone for three days, wearing the same trench coat and shirt he had left when he left, and looking at this side with a serious face.

"I'm back."

The admiral said in a deep voice, he went straight to his home when he returned to Olavi Island, and when he came to this bedroom, he didn't have time to check the situation in the house, but the sudden decrease in the number of people in the villa still made him smell a little wrong, and his tone was a little serious.

"What were you left behind before you left?"

Klein cautiously confirmed.

"A 'Ninth Law' spell, made of my blood."

Answering impatiently, Emilius took a few steps closer, exposing his face to the moonlight outside the window, and asked rhetorically:

"Lu Er'an is not in the villa, and there are a lot fewer guards and maids, what has happened these days?"

Taking a deep breath, Klein looked directly into the other party's blue eyes, and reported one by one:

"Your secretary was injured a little, but it's not a big problem, and he's still out there all night arresting the 'Celestial Sect'."

"Many of the guards and maids of the villa are injured and even contaminated and are being treated in the church."

"Your brother, Governor Auston has been relieved of his duties and has left Olawe Island to return to Beckland, and the inauguration dinner for the new Governor should have just ended."

"Your Miss Cynthia was polluted by the 'Mother Tree of Desire' and turned into a monster, and I found out by luck and has solved it."

"Your master bedroom is completely destroyed, and of course, it should be much cheaper to repair than the bathhouse at the naval base."

With Klein's words, Emilius's serious, old-fashioned expression became irrepressibly stunned.

Is this really Olavi Island, my villa?

I've only been away for three days, so why do I feel like I've come to another world?
