Chapter Forty-Six: Arodes' Congratulations (Asking for a Guaranteed Monthly Pass)
"Are you?" asked Klein in a rather complicated state of calm.
The lady in the rudimentary robe bowed slightly
"Arianna, servant of the secret. β
Servant of the Secret...... Arianna ...... Klein's eyes lit slightly, and he already knew the identity of the lady in front of him.
As an extraordinary person born as a night watchman, how could he be unfamiliar with the name Arianna?
The abbot of the monastery of the night, the head of the thirteen archbishops, and the possible future pope, no matter which identity you have, is an inescapable common sense in religion and the occult!
The name "Servant of the Secret", which Klein read in the diary of Emperor Russell, combined with names with similar meanings such as "Servant of the Secret", suspects that this refers to the rank of angels, and at the same time, according to the law of conservation of extraordinary characteristics, starting from the fact that Arianna cannot be an angel in sequence 1 in the presence of sequence 0, Klein believes that the "servant of the secret" is most likely sequence 2 of the "night" pathway.
This...... It's not that the goddess didn't respond, but the way she responded was very special...... Directly sent his "servant" over...... Klein's mood is complicated and difficult to describe.
He was silent for a few seconds, then bowed solemnly
"Good afternoon, Your Highness Arianna. β
In the major churches, if there is an angelic demigod walking on the ground, the suffix "His Highness" should be added to the face to show respect, and similarly, the representative of the will of the gods such as the pope, the pope, and the patriarch should be added "crown", in addition, for the head of a religion, it can also be called "the Holy See" and "Holy See", of course, many times, "Holy See" can also refer to the location of the Holy See.
Arianna tapped four times clockwise on her chest, replying reverently
"May the Goddess bless you. β
She then continued
"I'm an ascetic, you can just call me Madam. β
"Yes, Ms. Arianna. Klein didn't insist at all.
Arianna looked at him calmly for two seconds and asked directly
"You're going to deal with Amon the Blasphemer's doppelganger in Beckland?"
"Yes, I want to be covert with secrecy. Crane replied calmly.
At this time, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed in his heart, because it was not what he expected.
His original idea was that the goddess would give back blessings, bless, and then join forces with Pales Soroaster in Leonard's body to clear all of Amon's clones in Beckland, and in the process, it would not expose the problem of Leonard and the "thief" through the angel, but now, the blessing has become an "entity" and will participate in the battle.
Isn't it necessary to unite with Pales Soroaster? Let him just be an informant and share some of the spoils? Klein's thoughts raced, and Arianna said in a slow voice
"I have the power to stealthily keep everything that happens from being seen, but I can't guarantee that I can wipe out all of Amon's clones in Beckland. β
Palles Soroaster said he could do it...... The one who knows Amon best is indeed the sequence 1 of the same path...... Crane thought for a moment
"Lady Arianna, I have a well-established plan, you only need the stealth power, you don't need to participate in the actual battle, and I will take care of the rest. β
Arianna nodded, raised her right arm, and spread her palm.
A little light then lit up, deep and bright, and quickly outlined a medal in the palm of the hand.
The medallion is crystal clear throughout, as if it was made of black gemstones, giving people the feeling that when you look at it, it really exists there, and when you don't look at it, it disappears.
"This is my Night Crest, it has no properties or powers in itself, and its only function is that once activated, it will connect with me, no matter where you are in the real world. "Before you get started, remember to use it, and I'll give you the power of the Hidden Powers, and if you need more direct help, pronounce the name 'Arianna' in the ancient Hermetian language while inspiring." β
This is equivalent to a solidified, self-directed altar and ritual...... Well, when you reach the angelic rank, the scope of what can respond to prayers expands to the entire world?Klein instantly grasped the essence of the Night Crest.
As a "Sorcerer", he is currently unable to respond to supplications, a trait that he will not have until Sequence 3, and of course, as a "sea god", as a "fool", he is skilled enough in this area.
Crane didn't shirk, took the night crest, and saluted sincerely
"Thank you for your gift. β
With that, he clicked four times clockwise on his chest to draw the Crimson Moon
"Praise be to the Goddess!"
This way, he can still join forces with Palles Soroaster, as long as he doesn't have a problem pronouncing the name "Arianna" in the ancient Hermetian language when activating the Night Crest.
"Praise be to the Goddess. Arianna replied reverently.
Her figure vanished, as if erased from an eraser.
Is this by turning into a state of secrecy?, Crane pursed his lips in speculation.
At the same time, he was puzzled that Arianna could come so quickly, after all, the "Night" route was not the type that was good at teleporting, and it would definitely take a short time to get from the Holy See in Wintershire to Beckland.
My ritual is not a direct prayer...... Could it be that Lady Arianna happens to be in the surrounding area, in the Beckland region? Could this be too coincidental? If it is not a coincidence, then the problem is even more serious, what is he doing in the Beckland region? The undercurrent is turbulent...... Crane withdrew his gaze and waited patiently for a moment before turning back into Dwayne Dantès.
He found a pen and paper again, and drew a symbol on it that was a mixture of "hidden" and "peeping".
As soon as the last stroke of the symbol fell, the full-length mirror in the master bedroom glowed dimly but purely, like an undercurrent flowing quietly at the bottom of a lake.
Immediately afterwards, rows of salutes were presented inside, and salutes were fired into the sky.
Gold, silver, red, and blue exploded one after another, forming one word after another in the mirror
"Welcome back, my great host!
"Your faithful servant Arodes has seen you regain some of your authority, and trembles at your recovering breath, and you will finally return to that highest position, and let the whole world be at peace under your gaze!"
That's really exciting...... There's a new trick every time...... Crane bowed his head slightly, not speaking.
In full bloom, the words disintegrate and reassemble to form new sentences
"Great master, what do you command?"
"I have a question. Klein said gently, "How do you create safe and pure darkness in a place where you encounter danger in the dark? There are probably two kinds of dangers, one is that people will disappear directly in the darkness, and the other is that they will be attacked by strange monsters. β
On the surface of the full-length mirror, the ceremonial flowers subsided, the water rippled, and the silver words emerged one by one
"Great Master, do you mean 'Godforsaken Land'?"
I know a lot about this "magic mirror", and by the way, I also sent a question...... Crane nodded
"Yes. β
Without intervals, Arodes showed line after line of rune on the full-length mirror
"The formation of the 'Godforsaken Land' is related to the fall and closure of the second generation of the Creator, where the danger of the night should stem from the mutation of two essential forces.
"This is the remnant of the divine power of the 'Goddess of the Night', and the second is the legacy of the Creator, who himself holds part of the authority over shadows, darkness, depravity, filth, and mutation. The former can make creatures disappear into thin air, while the latter will directly cause darkness to give birth to monsters. β
It turns out that the two dangers stem from different powers, so it's no wonder that the performances are so different...... Arodus called the ancient sun god the second creator...... That's pretty close to what I guessed...... Amon and Adam's father was not the original creator awakening, but the time-traveler who inherited a large "inheritance"?Crane asked thoughtfully
"So, the fall of the second generation of the Creator, yes, with the participation of the 'Goddess of the Night'?"
This is what Klein vaguely expected, because in the darkness of the "God's Forsaken Land", humans will disappear like evaporation, which is very similar to the situation that the "God War Ruins" will disappear strangely if they don't sleep at night, and according to the little "Sun", Fregel, the king of the demon wolves who originally held the power of "night" and "hidden", had fallen as early as the Second Age, and it was impossible for him to do it.
Therefore, unless there is another god of the "Night" path in the middle, it is difficult for those two strangeness not to be associated with the "Goddess of the Night".
On the surface of the mirror, the silver light quickly converged and condensed into a single word
"Yes. β
Right...... Crane was about to ask, but suddenly closed his mouth again, because he remembered his identity, the Servant of the Night, so even if no one was watching, he had to pay attention to the respect for the gods, and not to explore the relevant secrets, except in the mysterious space above the gray mist, of course.
He was about to turn back to his previous question, urging the "Magic Mirror" Arodes to list a solution, but he saw that in the full-length mirror, the silver words squirmed on their own and changed
"Great master, your loyal servant Arodes has a small request, may, may we stop talking about the 'Goddess of the Night'?"
At the end of this question, a stick figure of a shrunken figure appears.
Just what the doctor ordered...... Crane said deliberately for two seconds
"Good. β
On the surface of the mirror, the flow of silver traces suddenly became light, and the words took shape one after another
"There are two ways to solve your previous question
"The first is to take the initiative to accept the pollution and transform yourself into monsters in the darkness, and the reason why these creatures do not disappear in the dark is because they are protected by the authority of the 'fallen', so that all the darkness will be pure and safe;
"The second is to create darkness with a temporary dream world, so that the spirits are protected by the 'dream world', which can effectively delay the erosion of the dangerous night. β
