Edward didn't think much about it. He took out the Black Emperor and Red Priest cards from his leather pocket, set up a ceremony, and re-sacrificed them to Klein.
For Edward, he had held these two cards of blasphemy for nearly a month, but for Mr. Fool, only a few hours had passed.
Mr. Fool did not respond immediately, but waited for more than ten minutes. He was obviously on his way out to do something. I don't know where he found a temporary bathroom and logged into his kingdom of God.
When the two blasphemous cards disappeared, Edward opened his arms and fell freely backwards, lying on the bed:
"Okay, I've finished the most urgent things I needed to do when I got back. I can finally take a break."
At this time, Lilith jumped onto his stomach with the foot cloth hooked, "Edward, help Miss Lilith wipe her feet."
"Okay~"
Edward sat up, holding a towel in one hand and grabbing Lilith's pink and soft little pads with the other hand, wiping them clean carefully, and then put her on the bed: "Okay, it's all clean!"
Lilith immediately ran back and forth on the bed a dozen times, then rolled forward and fell on the bed, then looked at Edward with her bright eyes.
Feeling her gaze, Edward smiled and asked, "What are you looking at?"
"Look at Edward~"
She crawled to Edward's side, then leaned against him tightly and closed her eyes.
After a while, Lilith suddenly whispered, "Edward."
"What's wrong?"
"Are people who lie to others bad people?"
"Yes."
"Will he grow a long nose like Pinocchio?"
"Well, that's not necessarily the case." - It depends on whether Bernadette really turns this story into a miracle.
Edward looked at her and said, "But I believe that Lilith will never lie to me."
"Yes!"
Lily nodded without hesitation - Miss Lilith just didn't tell Edward some things, she didn't lie to him!
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but remember Christine's words: But after becoming a human, you might become unhappy.
Alas - life is not easy, the cat sighed.
...
The luxurious villa of Earl Hall's family.
The Earl and his wife were a little puzzled as their daughter suddenly showed such enthusiasm after not seeing her for just an hour, but since it was love from their sweet little girl, they were of course happy to see it.
"Dad, this is a quill pen for you. Don't underestimate it because it is just a quill pen. It has magical powers. From now on, you don't have to write by yourself. Just say it."
"Mom, these clothes are given to you by me. You can wear them at home. They are very comfortable. Wearing this pendant will not only look good, but it can also create a protective shield when you encounter danger."
"Annie, please help me distribute these candies and chocolates to everyone."
Hibbert, who had just returned from overseas, stood by and felt like an outsider. He snorted, "Where's mine?"
Audrey immediately took out two top-brand suits and handed them over: "Of course yours will be included."
Hibbert took the suit and gestured briefly, "Well, it feels good. Do you still have that kind of feather pen? Actually, Dad rarely needs to write by himself now. On the contrary, I often need to deal with various documents."
"some."
Audrey took out a magic feather pen and a fountain pen. "You can use this fountain pen when there are outsiders around."
Hibbert played with his pen and said casually, "Tsk, did you go shopping with others just now?"
Upon hearing this, Earl and Lady Hall looked over at the same time.
Audrey looked calm and nodded, "Yes, I went to his hometown, an unknown island in the turbulent sea."
Mrs. Hall said, "No wonder I feel like I've never seen the style of these things before."
Earl Hall raised his eyebrows and thought for a moment, then said, "I plan to hold a dinner party this weekend, and you can invite him over then."
"ah?"
Earl Hall added: "It's not a family dinner, just an ordinary banquet."
"Oh, okay."
Audrey breathed a sigh of relief.
Hibbert curled his lips and snorted: "Last time on the boat, I saw your relationship... let alone a family dinner, you can even hold an engagement party. \t*i^a\n*l,a,is,k/.?co?m¢"
"…"
Audrey took out a cigar and threw it over: "Brother Hibbert, you don't have to talk while smoking a cigar."
She hesitated for a moment and said, "But there are many people in Backlund who want to harm him. There are too many people at the ball to see..."
Count Hall seemed to have expected this: "He can change his appearance, right? When the time comes, just use his real appearance when you meet me in private."
"Meet in private?"
Audrey couldn't help but be alert, "Dad, what do you want to do?"
"I'll just take a look."
Mrs. Hall smiled: "Oh, I didn't expect my baby to grow up in the blink of an eye."
As a mother, she naturally hoped that her daughter could marry someone she loved and have children. However, as a countess, she was well aware that it would be difficult for her daughter to decide her own marriage. Under normal circumstances, her husband would decide after she came of age and she would be married into another aristocratic family for an alliance.
And now the boy Audrey is dating is obviously the one she likes, and her husband has no objection, so of course she is happy to see it - but the prerequisite is that it must be approved by her mother.
"Mom~"
Audrey started to act coquettishly.
Hall and his son looked at each other and saw the helplessness and vigilance on each other's faces: beware that their precious daughter could not be abducted so easily by others!
...
The next day.
Edward got up early in the morning and sat at his desk to sort out his goal plan for this trip to the mysterious world - this should have been completed before returning, but the previous time was wasted on completing the magic learning guide.
"First of all, the primary goal is still to be promoted to a higher sequence."
He muttered to himself while writing in his notebook, "Currently, I am still short of two auxiliary ingredients for the Traveler's Potion: the body fluids of the Spirit World Traveler and the residual spirituality of the Thousand-Faced Hunter, as well as the extraordinary characteristics of the Shepherd. Although these two auxiliary ingredients are not very valuable, they seem to be quite troublesome to obtain." - Because in order to obtain these materials, you have to hunt down the two extraordinary creatures first.
Even the previous pirate conference was not received.
"As a spirit traveler, perhaps you can ask Miss Coconut Tree for help. Although she doesn't want to have too much contact with me, she shouldn't be too opposed to asking her for help to buy something, right?"
"Thousand-Faced Hunter. I remember that in the original book, Klein bought it from Emlyn, and Emlyn obviously got it from the vampires. In other words, he has to deal with the vampires again."
However, this time I'm just buying an ordinary material, so it shouldn't attract too much attention, right?
"If Mr. A can find the Beyonder characteristic of the Shepherd, he probably won't mind selling it to me, but you can't put all your eggs in one basket... But among the people I know, I think Bernadette is the only one who can get this sequence. So, should I ask her for help?"
Edward hesitated for a moment and silently made a decision: he would not actively look for her, but if she came to me, he would ask her in passing.
"In addition to the materials, we are still short of two special coordinates for the promotion ceremony. It doesn't matter where you choose it in the real world, but if you choose it in the spirit world, it won't be a problem to ask a messenger for help."
So the four coordinates required for promotion can be obtained so easily?
Edward muttered in surprise:
"I was originally thinking about trying the spiritual world and the book world of Groselle's Travels."
Having written this, Edward tore off the page full of words, burned it, and continued writing:
"Of course, if I can advance to Sequence 5 as soon as possible, I will definitely have to prepare for Sequence 4 in the following time."
"My second goal is to use the next Tarot Club to verify how many of the treasures those five seniors got for me are real. Well, in fact, as long as there is one real thing, I will be very satisfied!"
Hey, better give me a sword in the stone that can release ex curry sticks.
Chapter 272 Spirit World
"Third, according to Bernadette's previous prediction, Backlund's disaster should happen during this period of time. Although I don't know if killing Butis in advance will affect the occurrence of the incident, we must be prepared in advance. In this regard, perhaps we can start with Mr. A and the upcoming Miss D."
"The Great Smog was not something that had to happen because of the trend of the times for the priests. It played more of a driving role - it gave George III an excuse to be 'forced' to reform the new order and paved the way for the subsequent war."
"Well, in that case, whether there is a new order or not may not be important. What matters is the war."
Edward sighed at the thought.
He was not a very saintly person, but he still felt a little sad when he saw countless ordinary people suffer in war because of the ambitions of a few people.
But from the long-term perspective of doomsday, it is necessary for the Russian priest to become a god. Whether it is for more ordinary people or to have a taller man in front of him, Edward has no reason to stop the war - of course, he has no ability to stop it.
"Hey, there's no point in thinking about this now. Let's just get through this disaster first."
Edward put down his pen and stopped writing: "Fourth, if time permits and it is safe enough, try to figure out why He asked me to rescue Mr. Men."
"I have a feeling that since I met Christine, she has been guiding me step by step to rescue Mr. Men. However, I suddenly 'showed my cards' to the Dusk Hermits, causing them to change their strategy and directly use the Desecrated Slate as bait to lure me."
Tear.
He tore off the page he had just written and burned it to ashes.
Lilith squatted beside him, looking curious: "Edward, why do you always tear up and burn the things you write after you finish writing?"
"Well, because what I wrote is something very important that cannot be known to others. I wrote it down so that I can sort it out more easily. Now that I have sorted it out, I will naturally burn it."
Lilith suddenly realized: "Oh~ Is this called... destroying the body after the deed is done?"
"???"
Edward looked over in astonishment: "What a mess, where did you learn all this?"
"…"
Lilith said decisively: "It was Susie, Susie taught me!"
"Really? If a cat lies, its nose will grow longer~"
She stepped back a little and looked away: "I heard it from others... when I was out performing."
Edward thought for a moment, then lifted her up and held her in his arms: "Actually, what you just said is not...absolutely wrong. When you want to deal with some bad guys but don't want others to find out, you can use this method to avoid any future troubles."
