Mystery: Mr. Witch and Ms. Hunter

Chapter 141 Them
Bayam, next to the Church of the Waves, in the small house where Hermes lived.

Ouroboros, with a beautiful face and wearing a white robe, sat quietly opposite Hermes, watching Him writing something at the desk.

Fine beads of sweat oozed from the tip of Hermes' nose. It was obvious that even the "Insighter" felt the pressure when there was more than one angel tracking him.

"If you're stressed, I can help you."

Ouroboros closed his eyes slightly and spoke softly.

"No problem... You don't need to show up." Hermes exhaled and threw the quill in his hand into the trash can. "I don't want to attract another mercury snake because of your appearance..."

"Besides, you don't really care whether I live or die."

Hermes added somewhat sarcastically.

Ouroboros nodded nonchalantly. "Yes, I don't really care. Compared to Him, you are still too insignificant."

"Speaking of this, I don't understand a little bit," Hermes asked, "From what you said, you seem to be loyal to Adam. And the plan between Matafarli and I is obviously of no benefit to His plan, and may even have a considerable negative impact."

"In that case, why are you still helping me?" Hermes said in a rather sarcastic tone, "Could it be that you are just pretending to be loyal, and actually want to pull Him down and climb up like me? But there is no one at the top of your path..."

He didn't finish his words, because the mercury-colored tail-swallowing snake in Ouroboros' eyes suddenly rotated 360 degrees, and then Hermes' body quickly shrank and deformed, forming a shriveled baby, with its hands and feet grasping at the air weakly.

However, Hermes was not panicked. As an angel of the audience, He thought He was as strong as He thought He was, and His appearance would not change. And Ouroboros' attack was obviously just a warning, and did not threaten His life.

"This is a warning."

Ouroboros closed his eyes, his expression still without joy or sadness. "If you say something like that again, I will bring bad luck to you and make you walk directly into the Church of Bones after you leave here."

Hermes waved the baby's hand to indicate that he understood, and then said in a very strange baby voice: "If that's not the case, I can't understand why you did this."

"It's no wonder that people like you don't understand."

Ouroboros nodded. "The only person you believe in is yourself, and you don't even believe in yourself."

"To put it simply, I serve the Lord who created everything, the omniscient and almighty God. Adam is not completely equal to Him, he just inherited the Lord's will. Only when the wrestling between Adam and the true Creator is decided and one of them disappears completely, the individual that they merge into will be the master I serve."

"But Adam always believed that he was the Creator."

Hermes asked back in confusion.

"I thought you should understand the characteristics of the audience." Ouroboros shook his head. "How powerful He thinks He is, then He is that powerful. He thinks He is the creator, so He can restore the master's former glory to a certain extent."

"But even so, why didn't you help Adam take the initiative like before? After all, just a year ago you were still helping the two brothers deal with the current mystery."

Hermes first said "oh" as if he suddenly understood, and then continued to ask.

"That's because before He and the real Creator hadn't merged, His backup was His backup. Adam was more like my master than the real one. But now that they have merged, Adam's backup is also the real one, and this advantage no longer exists."

Ouroboros crossed his fingers in front of his chest. Although his eyes were still slightly closed, Hermes still felt as if he was being watched, which made the audience angel feel very uncomfortable.

"In addition, at that time, Amon was still by His side. If Amon was the winner of the previous battle between Amon and Guimi, then He would help Adam gain the initiative, and I would take Adam as my master and help Him complete all His tasks. But now, Guimi is still fighting for the initiative with Tianzun, and Amon has also gone to the starry sky..."

"I will only help the one who is most likely to take the initiative to become God based on my judgment. Only when they decide the winner will I completely offer my loyalty."

Ouroboros raised his crossed hands devoutly, as if in prayer.

"In other words, you now think that the True Creator will win this battle?"

Hermes keenly grasped the hidden meaning in Ouroboros' words and immediately spoke out to confirm.

"Yeah. There's a deeper reason, but you don't need to know."

Ouroboros closed his mouth and began to rest his eyes. He was already tired of this conversation.

However, at this moment, strange symbols suddenly appeared in their room. A large amount of information flowed into this narrow room, filling every corner of this space with a vast amount of knowledge. Part of that knowledge flowed to the two of them, and the other part flowed to the corners of the room, forming a mysterious brass symbol that quickly outlined the shape of the third angel.

He is the Pope of the Religion of Knowledge and Wisdom, the agent walking in the world, the "Angel of Wisdom" Tapani Cherubim!
"You guys have made too much noise. It's not time for the Extraordinary World to be exposed to the public yet."

As soon as the cherubim appeared, they complained to Ouroboros and the other two.

However, Ouroboros just closed his eyes slightly, completely ignoring Him, and Hermes did the same.

Both Hermes and Ouroboros were strong men who survived the Second Age. Even if the God of Knowledge and Wisdom appeared here in person, Ouroboros would probably not give Him a good face - after all, He participated in the oath-breaking feast and shared the sun god that Ouroboros believed in. Although Hermes had no conflicts with the Cherubim, he was also much older than Him.

The cherub suppressed his anger and turned to Hermes, who was relatively lower in status and strength.

“When do we trade?”

Hermes waved his hand: "Don't worry... This is a three-party deal. I want guarantees for more than just your family. When that guy comes... Ah, He is here as we are talking."

As soon as he finished speaking, a fourth figure appeared in the room. He was mixed in with the knowledge of the cherubim just now. After Hermes spoke, he also appeared, and he was also an angel.

Albert the Gnostic, the "Wise", is the leader of the Ten Pillars of the Moss Ascetic Order.

In this small room, four angels appeared at the same time!
“Now that everyone is here…” Ouroboros opened his eyes and said calmly.

"Then let's finish the deal quickly."
