The instant he saw the Wraith of the "Red Angel," Klein's pupils dilated sharply, the human-skinned glove on his left hand abruptly turning transparent.
He didn't even listen to what it was saying. His instinctive reaction was to immediately "teleport" away, but at this moment, the Spirit World that entered his eyes was different from usual.
The countless, indescribably shaped transparent organisms were all tainted with a color of mixed iron and blood. Thick gunpowder smoke filled the surroundings, obscuring the seven pure lights containing infinite knowledge above, rendering them almost invisible.
Klein's heart skipped a beat, and he didn't recklessly "teleport" directly.
Seeing this, the Red Angel evil spirit let out a snicker.
"Afraid of
Hearing this, Klein instinctively scanned his surroundings but found nothing unusual.
The Red Angel evil spirit maintained its extremely annoying smile, pointing at the sofa opposite the rocking chair. "If I had already told Zaratul that Dwayne Dantès is Gehrman Sparrow, then when you returned to 160 Berkland Street this morning, the ones waiting for you in the wine cellar wouldn't be living people. Instead, it would be the butler and servants hanging up like cured hams. Of course, they would still welcome you warmly. Sit. In this situation, it's not a bad idea to hear my thoughts and intentions first."
Imagining the scene described by the Red Angel evil spirit, even though Klein had done similar things himself, his hair stood on end, and a chill ran down his spine.
Remaining vigilant, he had the marionette
"Maybe it's just because you only got this information from
At the same time, he deduced from the Red Angel evil spirit's words that Zaratul really had already arrived in
The Red Angel evil spirit's gaze swept over the valet and his master, then it smiled. "A fool like Patrick Bryan, I can get whatever I want out of him in a quarter of an hour. And it's been a whole night and a whole morning since that ritual."
…You and Miss Messenger probably have a lot in common… Klein made the marionette raise an eyebrow. "So?"
The Red Angel evil spirit let the rocking chair beneath it sway gently. "I don't know if you've heard this saying: when you choose a Beyonder pathway, your corresponding friends and enemies are also determined. And I am not your friend, but I am also not your enemy. Of course, you and I have had some conflicts, but no one suffered great losses, and the matter is in the past. For me, your growth will cause great trouble for certain beings I hate, so I don't want to prematurely strangle you. I am very happy to see you continue advancing."
The Emperor said something similar… 'Certain beings I hate'… Klein considered and asked back.
"'
"Not so ignorant, and not so stupid, huh." The Red Angel evil spirit laughed, raising a hand to rub its chin. Both its words and actions made people want to punch it.
After thinking, Klein calmly pointed out a problem. "Then you could have chosen Zaratul. If He could advance because of this, it would also cause great trouble for 'Amon the Blasphemer.' Compared to Him, I am still too weak and need a long time to grow. There are far too many accidents that could happen in between."
The Red Angel evil spirit nodded seriously. "Indeed, that's what I thought at first. You, a guy not much better than a stray dog, what do you have to compare with Zaratul, who is already Sequence 1? Who dies faster?"
Having said that, the Red Angel evil spirit changed its tone and sighed. "But if every matter in this world could be solved by choosing the most ideal plan, that would be too wonderful…"
Before it could finish speaking, a bloody gash suddenly split open on its left, bloodless cheek.
The gash was stretched wide, opening and closing like a mouth, revealing two rows of illusory white teeth.
"I've investigated! The decline of the
…Is this the remnant spirit of that ancestor of the Sauron family? The Red Angel's personality split is much more severe than I imagined. No, this isn't a normal split personality; it's three people stuffed into one body. No matter what they do, they must first reach an agreement, or internal conflict breaks out… Klein tentatively believed that the Red Angel evil spirit wasn't setting a trap, it really couldn't tell Zaratul this information.
This is its weakness. Can be used in the future… Klein silently muttered to himself, then changed the subject. "Then why did you come to me? Just to say what you just said?"
The Red Angel evil spirit raised its hand to rub its left cheek, making the appearing mouth slowly disappear. At the same time, it laughed and said. "Aren't you investigating the Loen royal family? It seems a relatively high-level Demoness named Katerina is involved. If you find any trace of her, inform me before you act."
White Saint Katerina… What does the Red Angel evil spirit want with her? Hmm, Sequence 4 of the 'Hunter' Pathway can turn women into men, and Sequence 7 of the 'Demoness' Pathway can turn men into women. These should be two interchangeable Beyonder pathways… The Red Angel evil spirit can't find a suitable Beyonder characteristic for the 'Hunter' Pathway, so it plans to jump to the 'Demoness' Pathway? That makes sense. As an evil spirit, as long as it can solve the problem of its own existence, it can still advance through potions and characteristics… Klein was stunned for a moment, then combined his knowledge of the hidden mysteries to form a certain guess.
And this immediately gave him a strange thought. When high-sequence Beyonder characteristics of both the 'Hunter' and 'Demoness' pathways exist simultaneously in its body, would the Red Angel evil spirit manifest in a male state or a female state? Whose status is higher, who dominates, who decides?
At this moment, the Red Angel evil spirit looked at Dwayne Dantès and his valet, let out a "heh," and said. "You have quite the talent for provocation."
I haven't said anything yet… Klein replied in his mind, slightly confused.
The Red Angel evil spirit twisted its mouth and said.
