"It's you?"
Upon hearing the slightly surprised and puzzled female voice, Klein jumped in fright, imagining that someone had seen through him.
He immediately calmed down because he had already changed his appearance. He was the deceased Rear Admiral Hurricane Zillinges, and inside Zillinges was the crazy adventurer German Sparrow. Inside German Sparrow was the great detective Sherlock Moriarty, and inside Sherlock Moriarty was Klein Moretti.
This wasn't the end. Inside Klein Moretti was Mr. Fool, Zhou Mingrui.
It doesn't make sense for her to be able to see through my true nature. Furthermore, how would she know a trivial figure like Klein Moretti … Even Rear Admiral Hurricane Zillinges wouldn't be able to surprise the helper hired by Ailment Maiden Tracy so much! To be specially hired by a Sequence 5 pirate admiral to protect her and deal with her enemies, she has to be at least a Sequence 4 demigod …
So, this sentence is directed at Mr. Aztec? That high-level Demoness recognized Mr. Aztec, who sabotaged their cooperation with the royal family and Ince Zangwill in Baekeland, or is it Mr. Aztec from a particular life in the past? Klein quickly sorted out his thoughts. As he was wary of Tracy and her helper's sudden attack, he used the corner of his eye to observe Mr. Aztec's reaction.
He wasn't surprised by the appearance of a mysterious powerhouse. Firstly, it was because Mr. Aztec had already given him a warning. Secondly, he believed that Vice Admiral Ailment Tracy wasn't an egomaniac. After nearly being assassinated, and without knowing the other party's goal or the faction backing her, there was a high chance that she would shrink back and leave the Rorsted Archipelago to seek help from the upper echelons of the Demoness Sect.
The only thing he didn't expect was for the other party's helper to arrive so quickly. It was as though they were nearby or had a mystical item similar to a Traveler.
Combined with the feminine characteristics and gentleness of the voice, Klein suspected that it was a demigod-level Demoness.
Aztec stood on the thick carpet and hesitated for two seconds.
"You know me?"
His tone was very uncertain … Could it be that he had spent part of his life with a witch? No, I can't think like that … Klein first let his imagination run wild, and then he seriously repented in his heart.
He noticed that Vice Admiral Ailment Tracy had a look of astonishment as well. Her previous confidence and composure had turned into puzzlement.
That gentle and beautiful female voice still came from somewhere.
"Of course I know you. You should know me too."
Aztec listened attentively and shook his head with a wry smile.
"I'm sorry, I've lost my past memories again and again, and I'm on my way to find them.
"If you can remind me and help me awaken more memories, I will be very grateful."
Hearing the conversation between the two, Tracy's expression of shock and confusion gradually became solemn.
She cautiously swept a glance at Klein, but she frowned when she saw Rear Admiral Hurricane Zillinges's face.
The gentle female voice let out a long sigh.
"It's been more than 1,300 years since we last met. Back then, the Primordial Demoness and Death worked together to instigate the Pale Calamity in the Northern Continent. You might have already forgotten that we once fought against the saints and angels of the Church of the Evernight Goddess together."
I know about this period of history. It's in Rosell The Great's diary … Mr. Door said that the outcome was the Primordial Demoness being heavily injured. It was only recently that there were signs of her descending again. Death even directly perished, creating the Berserk Sea and separating the Northern and Southern Continents … The Demoness Sect and Death's faction had such a collaboration. It's no wonder this demigod-level Demoness knows Mr. Aztec. Man, she's also a monster that has lived for at least 1,400 years! Klein thought to himself.
He was immediately puzzled again. He originally believed that Mr. Aztec had been glanced at by Blood Emperor Alista Tudor in the War of the Four Emperors and suffered heavy injuries, which was why he kept losing his memories and forgetting the past. However, the demigod-level Demoness's words indicated that not only had Aztec successfully survived the War of the Four Emperors, he had also participated in the Pale Disaster years later. There didn't seem to be any problems in between.
Aztec closed his eyes as if he was squeezing out his memories.
After a few seconds, he hesitantly asked,
"Katerina Pellè?
"You're already the Witch of Unaging?"
"I'm glad that you still remember me. Compared to you back then, I could only be considered weak." A figure slowly outlined itself to Vice Admiral Ailment Tracy's side. She was dressed in a simple and holy white robe. The slit on both sides was very high, revealing a pair of flawless legs. Her skin was as white as snow and as tender as a young girl's.
The woman had black hair and blue eyes. She was beautiful and had an indescribable charm.
She looked at Aztec Eggers and said with a faint smile, "After more than a thousand years, we're still alive.
It's worth celebrating that we're still alive to meet each other after more than a thousand years.
"Balam Empire's Mr. Death Consul."
Mr. Aztec is the Balam Empire's Death Consul … Is that the name of the potion after the Death pathway? This Demoness of Unaging Katerina Pellè looks to be in her thirties. She's dignified, holy, and mature … Wait, why am I thinking of this? Has her "Pleasure" charms already reached such a level? Klein hurriedly looked away and nearly used Cogitation to calm his emotions.
Without waiting for Aztec to say a word, Demoness of Unaging Katerina Pellè said with a beautiful voice that sounded like a song, "I'm very puzzled.
"I'm very confused as to why you keep losing your memories.
"I remember that this pathway only happens at the Undying stage. Every sixty years, you will die and revive, and forget the past. However, you have long advanced and escaped this curse.
"What happened to you at the end of the Pale Disaster?
"Heh heh, back then, the seven deities were divided and were enemies with each other. We all believed that the Primordial One and Death would succeed, but who knew that the proudest Sun would lower his head. The arrogant Tyrant would also lower his head. 'They' quickly joined forces again. If I hadn't coincidentally advanced, I might've perished at the end of that battle of deities. I believe you must've been injured as well, resulting in your current state. The death of Death is the greatest injury to you."
Aztec fell silent as his face gradually revealed a pained expression that wasn't too obvious.
"I-I can't recall it …"
Only at this moment did Klein realize that Demoness of Unaging Katerina Pellè looked somewhat familiar. He felt that she was the white-robed woman who had guided Madam Sharon onto the path of a Demoness.
Suddenly, Katerina's eyes darted around as she swept a glance at Klein. She chuckled at Aztec.
"Then, you shouldn't have forgotten the reason for your visit today, right?
"I'm very curious. Why did he assassinate Tracy? Could it be for justice?"
When the Demoness of Unaging swept her gaze over him, she was subdued, sweet, and mischievous, like a young girl who had yet to mature. And her facial features and bearing miraculously accentuated this feeling. She didn't look out of place like a mature lady pretending to be young. At that moment, the Katerina Pellè that Klein saw was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl.
… She can already perfectly display the charm of every stage of a woman. Furthermore, her skin and facial features are compatible … As expected of a Demoness of Unaging … Klein was already attempting to use Cogitation techniques to resist the indescribable charm.
He took the initiative to look at Ailment Maiden Tracy.
"Do you know the tycoon, Jimmy Necker?"
Tracy opened her mouth before closing it again. She wore a blank and aggrieved expression.
"Who is he?"
"Maybe you don't know him. He once collected a batch of ancient documents related to Death. He died at the hands of Rear Admiral Hurricane Zillinges, "Klein said with Rear Admiral Hurricane Zillinges's face.
Tracy narrowed her blue eyes. They were misty at first, but then they were filled with anger.
"You're here for the documents?"
As expected, he's in your hands … Klein made his judgment based on the other party's tone.
He replied indifferently,
"Yes."
Tracy took a small breath and said,
"Where is Elaine? What did you do to her? I know she's alive, and if something happens to her, my spiritual intuition will tell me. "
Klein didn't try to use a flirtatious tone.
"She has returned to Intis. She is about to start a new life."
Tracy's expression sank as a storm brewed in her eyes. The aura of a pirate admiral was completely revealed, but Aztec's casual glance at her made her snap to her senses.
The corners of her mouth curled up bit by bit.
"That batch of documents unearthed from the Balam Empire's royal mausoleum did fall into my hands.
"But I wasn't interested in them. I flipped through two pages and handed them over to the Church.
"Heh, even if you had successfully assassinated them, you wouldn't have been able to obtain them. I didn't even read them. Even if I were to use spirit channeling, I wouldn't be able to repeat them. Unfortunately, I couldn't bear to part with my life. Otherwise, I would've been able to see your disappointed look. It would definitely have been interesting."
Klein said calmly, "No, I won't be disappointed.
"No, I won't be disappointed. I'll be able to harvest the soul and characteristics of a Witch of Pain. I'll herd you and drive you."
As he spoke, he raised his left palm. On it was Creeping Hunger — in the form of a black glove.
Tracy narrowed her eyes as her gaze turned extremely dangerous, like a provoked tiger. If not for the two High-Sequence Beyonders beside her, she might've already attacked.
And just as Klein finished his sentence, he sensed that something was amiss.
I'm clearly not acting as German Sparrow, so why am I using his persona and style to speak … Klein was alarmed, wondering if he had been too engrossed in his character recently.
I have to remember that I can only be myself.
I can't be influenced by my character because of prolonged acting … This will cause me to lose myself, and it will cause me to lose control!
He quickly did a self-reflection and added the conclusion to his acting guidelines as a Faceless.
Seeing his brief silence, Aztec looked at Demoness of Unaging Katarina Pellè and said in his usual tone, "Can you give me a copy of that batch of documents?
"That's not a big problem." Katarina turned her head to glance at Tracy.
"That's not a big problem." Katarina turned her head to glance at Tracy. "Do you have any requests?"
Tracy stared at Klein and said with a slightly hoarse voice, "Tell me where Elaine is.
"Tell me where Elaine is."
Klein reined in his thoughts and looked back at her. Then, he looked at the holy Demoness of Unaging Katarina.
He had already made up his mind, but he still couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive.
He turned his head to look at Mr. Aztec and found that the other party had a gentle smile on his face. Mr. Aztec did not rush or force him.
Klein retracted his gaze and said succinctly,
"I refuse."
