Don't tell me this matter is targeted at me? Klein was alarmed as he immediately became abnormally lucid.
As a person who had experienced such matters numerous times, he was already a little delusional in this aspect.
There's really such a possibility … Just as I arrived at Oravi Island, the Mother Tree of Desire used a dream to give Flight Ken a revelation and began the entire plan. When I first met Bilt Brando, the Naturism Sect held a ritual to make that tramp's stand-in die from gluttony …
If it's targeted at Admiral Amyrius, the plan needs to ensure that he can't find another helper without a stand-in, or that he has no other means of concealing it. Clearly, this isn't certain. My involvement is proof of that …
If the target is me, the above problem can be explained. Klein used his Clown powers to control his facial expression as he silently watched Flight Ken.
With this conjecture, more doubts emerged in his mind.
But how did they determine that Bilt Brando would seek me out?
The news of German Sparrow being able to transform into anyone was spread by Vice Admiral Ailment Tracy. It's a factor that the Mother Tree of Desire can't control …
Of course, this can be viewed from another angle. It's precisely because of the spread of this information and my arrival at Oravi Island that the Mother Tree of Desire sent down a revelation to push for this matter.
But the problem is, why would "She" corrupt me? My grudge with Rose School isn't enough to attract the attention of an evil god. All I did was kill a Sequence 5 Wraith, a Sequence 6 Zombie, and a Sequence 7 Werewolf with Miss Sharon and the others, as well as snatch the Scarlet Lunar Corona and Biological Poison Bottle … The hunt against Admiral of Blood was halted before it even began. Before it could be carried out, all I did was kill Steel Maveti …
The vengeance that comes because of these matters can't even exceed the level of a saint!
Is it because I'm special to begin with? The moment I arrived on the island, I had a certain degree of resonance with the items formed from the Mother Tree of Desire's aura?
But when I was in Baekeland and Tingen City, I didn't see any Holy Artifacts left behind by deities showing any abnormal reactions.
Also, I had previously divined above the gray fog, and the revelation I received was that the tramp's death was a coincidence. It wasn't the work of a Mythical creature or a Grade 0 Sealed Artifact, but the outcome wasn't like that …
"Th-this is the first time the divination above the gray fog has been truly disrupted? And I was unknowingly disrupted? "
Klein's thoughts stagnated as he realized that this was the most serious problem.
Previously, when it came to 0-08, he had only failed to obtain an effective revelation, and it wasn't because of interference!
Therefore, it's a power that exceeds the level of a Grade 0 Sealed Artifact? The Mother Tree of Desire personally interfered, and "She" is a true deity? However, it's very difficult for the seven deities to directly influence the real World. There needs to be a corresponding ritual … Hmm, I've also divined the danger level of acting as Amyrius above the gray fog. The revelation I received was that it was bearable. The development of the matter matches the outcome, so I wasn't disrupted again? The more Klein thought about it, the more he felt that the entire matter was shrouded in mystery.
What he couldn't understand the most was that if the target of the corruption was him, why didn't he suffer any particularly difficult tests? He had resolved the problem in a relatively simple manner.
This made the Mother Tree of Desire's arrangements seem like a joke! Just as the heavy feeling was about to overwhelm Flight Ken, Klein asked again to confirm his guess.
What surprised him was that over the past week, the Naturism Sect had never held a ritual to pray to the Mother Tree of Desire to interfere with the divination. Nor did they make any special arrangements for the failure of the plan.
Strange … Klein took out a gold coin and flicked it to make a final confirmation.
Even without divination, he was almost certain that Flight Ken wasn't lying. Firstly, it was because he had already suffered a mental breakdown and didn't possess the ability to weave a reasonable explanation. Secondly, Flight Ken's answer was logical, matching the details that Klein had deliberately left out.
Pa! The gold coin landed in his open palm with the king's portrait facing up, indicating his confirmation.
Combined with the divination statement, Klein finally confirmed that Flight Ken wasn't lying.
Temporarily suppressing the doubts in his mind, he looked at Flight Ken again and asked without a hint of a smile,
"What have you done that violated the kingdom's laws and social customs?"
Flight Ken was stunned for a few seconds before his mental state seemed to improve.
From his point of view, the scheme related to Admiral Amyrius was the most serious crime. It was something that could easily infuriate the important figure in front of him. The rest were just trivial matters that weren't worth a demigod's attention.
So, skipping the important parts and coming to the ordinary topics meant that he might have a good ending.
Flight Ken couldn't help but reveal an inconspicuous smile as he hurriedly explained, "Don't worry.
"In order to steal someone else's property, I tortured their family for a whole night, killed them, and threw them into the forest. Then, I used forged documents to successfully obtain a considerable amount of wealth.
"I deliberately induced many believers to indulge their desires and watched them slowly become nourishment for the Mother Tree of Desire in the emptiness and regret after the matter.
"I deceived many ladies, using the excuse of liberating their nature and obtaining the salvation of the spirit to possess them.
"I tortured believers who attempted to apostatize to death, mainly by slicing off all the protruding parts of their bodies …"
He recounted one crime after another, as though he didn't wish to hide anything.
Klein found it unbelievable when he heard that. He had never imagined that human nature could be so evil.
As Flight Ken became more excited as he spoke, he saw Admiral Amyrius stand up with a deadpan expression. He circled around the desk and walked in front of him, raising his left palm.
In the middle of the left palm, a terrifying mouth cracked open. Two rows of illusory, white, and ice-cold teeth could be seen.
"No … No!"
A shrill and horrified scream echoed in the study for a long time.
After a while, Klein bent down to pick up the grayish-white blob of light that resembled a miniature brain.
This was a Lunatic's Beyonder characteristic!
Unfortunately, Flight Ken had been searched before he was brought here. He didn't leave any cash or items behind.
Pa! Klein snapped his fingers and ignited all the remaining pieces of clothing.
Looking at the wound on his left shoulder that was beginning to heal, he sat behind the desk and remained silent for a long while amidst the dancing scarlet flames.
When all traces were no longer obvious, he pulled the corresponding rope, causing the bell outside the door to ring.
The blond secretary, Luan, dispelled the "seal" and entered. He instinctively scanned every corner.
"Instruct the guards and base to cooperate with the Oravi police system to clean up the Naturism Sect. It's best if we can find clues and apprehend a number of Rose School members," Klein gave the order in a staid manner.
"Yes, Your Excellency," Luan replied respectfully.
He didn't ask where Flight Ken had gone. It was as though the leader of the Naturism Sect had never existed.
…
Klein didn't pay too much attention to the apprehension operation on Oravi Island. He used the excuse of suffering a minor injury to cancel all the arrangements for the next two days.
This meant that he didn't need to worry about how he could reveal the might of a High-Sequence Beyonder of the Arbiter pathway at critical moments after losing the Ninth Law charm.
"Your Excellency, Mr. Aston hasn't left on the liner. The new governor-general, Ben Conrad, has sent you an invitation to attend a banquet he'll be holding tonight." Close to noon, Luan knocked on the door and entered to report.
Ben Conrad … The person who replaced Aston as governor-general … According to what I know, Viscount Conrad's family is a loyal supporter of the royal family. Talim likely got to know Prince Edessak when he was Viscount Conrad's youngest son's equestrian teacher … Klein nodded gently as he immersed himself in Amyrius Rieveldt's complicated emotions.
He fell silent for a few seconds.
"Tell Governor-General Conrad that I'm injured due to the Naturism Sect's attack. It's not convenient for me to attend the banquet.
"Apologize to him on my behalf."
"Yes, Your Excellency." Luan didn't persuade him as he calmly left the room.
A demigod had the right to be "willful"!
As long as he didn't participate in a conspiracy or commit a grave mistake, he wouldn't be harshly criticized no matter what he did. This was because any faction would be willing to accept a half-deity!
Watching Luan's back disappear at the door, Klein shook his head indiscernibly and sat behind the desk.
The peaceful day passed quickly. When it was almost dawn, Klein, who was sleeping in the guest room, suddenly woke up and sat up.
His intuition told him that someone had entered the house!
Klein focused his gaze towards the window and saw a middle-aged man dressed in a tailcoat. He had black hair and blue eyes. The corners of his mouth drooped slightly. He was none other than Admiral Amyrius!
Phew, he's finally back … Klein stood up slowly and asked cautiously,
"What item did you give me before?"
He was afraid that the Admiral Amyrius in front of him was also a Faceless in disguise.
Admiral Amyrius stood there and replied with a solemn expression, "That's right.
"Ninth Law talisman."
Without waiting for German Sparrow to speak again, he took two steps forward and calmly asked,
"Has anything happened in the past few days?"
"…" Klein controlled his facial muscles and said,
"Your secretary made a mistake and got hurt."
"Hmm? Anything else? "Admiral Amyrius nodded with a deep and reserved expression.
Klein tried his best not to look away as he stared straight at him.
"Your brother has been relieved of his position as governor, and a new governor has been appointed."
"Your Miss Cynthia turned into a monster, and I purified her.
"Some of your guards and servants have been infected and are currently being treated …"
"…" Amyrius's expression couldn't help but turn dumbfounded.
His eyes moved slightly, as if he was wondering if he had returned to the wrong place.
It had only been three days!
