After a few seconds, Sharon calmly replied to Klein's question.
"It's not bait, but a lure."
Just as Klein was about to ask what the difference was, Marić explained in detail.
"In the past, when we were pursued by Rose School, we discovered quite a number of their members in Baekeland. However, due to our lack of strength and fear of traps, we didn't take action against them because we didn't want to attract the attention of the Churches.
"This time, we plan on choosing one of the more important ones to take action. We will also deliberately miss out on some, allowing the hidden ones to escape secretly and pass the news to Rose School's person-in-charge in Baekeland.
"And in secret, the Sanguine demigods will keep an eye on them. Through the information chain, they will find the person-in-charge. This person will definitely be an important member of Rose School.
"Once they're killed or captured, we'll take the next step based on the key information obtained through interrogation."
That's rather reasonable. It's mainly using my understanding of Rose School to formulate a plan and not using myself as bait. This will allow me to effectively control the situation and not destroy Baekeland … Klein nodded slightly.
"If that's the case, I can participate in it."
He didn't mention that he needed to consider it first and return to determine the level of danger. This was because this matter wasn't something that Sharon and the Sanguine needed to do in the near future. When he divined that something went wrong, he could stop it as a participant.
"What kind of payment do you need?" Marić's standing posture relaxed a little as he asked.
Klein smiled.
"If there aren't any accidents throughout the process, I wish to receive Ma 'am Reinette Tinekerr's help once. If I have to take action, I'll add the right to choose the spoils of war first.
"You can discuss it with Ma 'am Reinette Tinekerr first before writing to me."
In fact, he was still a little puzzled. He believed that since this was the plan, there was no need to seek him out. With Miss Messenger hiding in the dark, it was enough to prevent any accidents that Sherlock Moriarty could deal with!
"There's no need." Sharron, who was as pale as a doll, shook her head. "I can promise you right now."
Has this been discussed with Miss Messenger? Klein thought for a few seconds and asked honestly,
"Then why didn't you ask Ms. Reinette Tinekerr for help to prevent accidents from happening?"
Sharon's pale blonde hair seemed to be tightly bound by the small bonnet. It did not move at all. Her voice was ethereal as she replied,
"He doesn't want the Blood Breeds to discover his existence."
I see … Klein deliberated for a moment and raised another question.
"You people advocate abstinence. Why would you actively seek to deal with a key member of Rose School?
"Is revenge not within the scope of restraint?"
Sharon looked at him with her blue eyes and said,
"In the past few decades, Rose School has been working hard to make the Mother Tree of Desire descend into reality. This will bring about unimaginable disasters.
"In addition, Master also desires to have a complete body."
If the Mother Tree of Desire really descends into the real world, it would be an unimaginable disaster for me … However, what does this have to do with Miss Messenger's complete body? She, "Her" body was once torn apart, and it was in the hands of different key members of Rose School? Or could it be that the bodies or characteristics of High-Sequence Beyonders of the same pathway can become a part of "Her" body through some ritual? Klein mumbled inwardly and probed, "What's the matter?
"Abstinence is a Sequence 1 of the Mutant pathway?
"Then what are Sequence 2 and 3 called?"
He had once asked Miss Sharon the first question, but he had only received a rather vague answer.
Sharon answered without any hesitation. She didn't speak too quickly, but she still had the ethereal and inhuman feeling.
"I wasn't too sure in the past, but now, I can confirm that Sequence 1 is Abstinence. Sequence 2 is Ancient Bane. Sequence 3 is known as Cursed Object in ancient times, now known as Disciple of Silence."
Does this mean that you weren't sure the last time I asked? That is to say, only after you summon Miss Messenger will you acknowledge "Her" and learn more secrets? Klein nodded in enlightenment.
"Then I have no more questions. Write to me after you've decided on the time for the operation."
"Thank you." Sharon floated up once again as though she was weightless and bowed.
Marić pressed his hand to his chest and bent his back slightly.
"There's no need." Klein stood up from the high stool and wore his top hat with a smile.
This time, there wasn't a smacking sound as the scarlet flames soared up and engulfed him.
Under the night sky in Backlund, countless lights were silently lit, as though the starry sky had descended to the ground after being covered by layers of clouds.
As the few "stars" twinkled, Klein returned to the rental apartment at the periphery of East Borough.
Just as he changed his clothes and prepared to return to North Borough's Böklund Street, he heard stacked illusory prayers.
It came from a man.
Nodding in thought, Klein immediately took four steps counterclockwise and arrived above the gray fog. He extended his spirituality towards the constantly expanding and contracting crimson star.
As he expected, this corresponded to Emlyn.
This vampire, who was already a Viscount, prayed piously, "Honorable Mr. Fool, I wish to request for a small-scale gathering.
"Honorable Mr. Fool, I wish to request for a small-scale gathering. The participants will be me, Mr. Hanged Man, Ma 'am Hermit, Miss Justice, Mr. World …"
To Emlyn, these are the representatives of Tarot's intelligence, experience, knowledge, and observation skills … Poor Leonard … Klein chuckled inwardly as he leaned back in his chair and responded to Emlyn's request.
…
Above the grayish-white fog, inside the ancient palace.
Five crimson beams of light simultaneously rose from both sides of the long bronze table, condensing into different figures.
"Mr. Moon, has the Sanguine's plan been finalized?" Audrey first greeted everyone before asking with piqued interest.
Emlyn surveyed the area and said frankly, "Yes, the exact plan is this.
"Yes, this is the exact plan. Through two temperance faction members who defected from the Rose School of Thought …"
He recounted the plan that Sharon had described to Sherlock Moriarty from another angle to The World, German Sparrow, and company.
Finally, he said, "If we can obtain effective information, we Sanguine plan on seizing the opportunity to raid Rose School's headquarters, hoping to snatch away an important item."
"What important item?" Cattleya asked curiously.
This is an item that can make an ancient faction attempt to attack the headquarters of a secret organization. It's definitely not simple!
"Her" importance might even exceed that of an ordinary angel. It's even stronger than some Grade 0 Sealed Artifacts!
Emlyn didn't hide the truth.
"It's a holy artifact left behind by our Sanguine Ancestor. Due to an accident, it was obtained by Rose School. I'm not sure what it is exactly."
A holy artifact left behind by Lilith … In the hands of Rose School … The Sanguine places great importance on it … This time, key points flashed through Klein's mind as he acted as The World, German Sparrow. Combined with the many secrets he had learned, he quickly came up with an uncertain guess:
That might be the key to the Mother Tree of Desire's corruption and control of a portion of the Moon domain's authority!
This is something that Miss Sharon and company didn't mention. The Sanguine are also holding back, and they're quite ambitious … Yes, it can't be described as ambitious. That Ancestor Lilith, whose identity is unknown, seems to have foreseen the chaos of the situation and the arrival of the apocalypse. Therefore, she made the Sanguine change their ways and be more radical in order to seek more support? This is snatching the lifeline of the apocalypse … Klein didn't say a word as he listened quietly.
The others were also pondering over the important information revealed by The Moon. Alger was no exception. He pondered for a few seconds before saying, "That's right.
He pondered for a few seconds before saying, "In other words, in this operation, you Sanguine will hide in the shadows and won't be targeted by Rose School?"
"Yes," Emlyn replied in a relatively relaxed manner.
The Sanguine's plan was jointly decided upon by Duke Olmer, Marquis Nibbs, and a few Earls in Baekeland. Without a doubt, many of the problems had been considered repeatedly. No matter what, even a pig that had lived for more than a thousand years would definitely have sufficient wisdom and experience.
The Hanging Man Alger nodded gently.
"I have another question. How can you be sure that the person in charge of Rose School in Baekeland is only a saint, and that there aren't more demigods or even angels hidden?
"You should know very well that the situation in Baekeland is very complicated. It's not impossible for Rose School to increase the number of powerhouses and conspire against certain matters. If that's the case, you'll be like thieves who wish to steal something but end up barging into Sivellaus Yard."
Sivellaus Yard was another name for Baekeland's police department.
Emlyn became increasingly relaxed.
"This time, Duke Olmer will personally observe the entire process. Even if an angel descends upon Rose School, we'll still be able to easily escape.
"In addition, regardless of which side it is, none of them wish to create a huge conflict in Baekeland. Without an overwhelming advantage or the confidence of not causing a huge commotion, they will naturally stop fighting."
Upon hearing his answer, The Hermit Cattleya curled up the corners of her mouth indiscernibly.
She reminded him, "To Beyonders who aren't demigods, even a slight collision between angels will produce a shockwave that's enough to destroy them."
Emlyn snapped out of his pride from witnessing the Sanguine's powerful strength and was momentarily at a loss for a response.
At this moment, Audrey's eyes darted around slightly as though she was thinking about something.
"Mr. Moon, what do you need to do in this plan?"
What do I need to do? The one in charge of monitoring the secret members of Rose School and locking onto the true target through the transmission of information is Earl Mistral … The ones who take action are Marquis Nibbs, Earl Mistral, and the demigod from Rose School's temperance faction … The one watching everything in secret to prevent any accidents is Duke Olmer … I-I seem to only need to contact that Wraith named Marić and maintain communication between the two sides … Hmm … The more Emlyn thought about it, the odder his expression became.
It doesn't seem like there's anything I need to do. At least, there's nothing particularly important …
