Secret: I can play two paths

Chapter 232 Red Moon
"How can this be possible... You are so polite. You are so polite."

Star waved his hands, looking as if he wanted to push away this unexpected "gift".

Having said that, Kosta's attention was completely attracted by the items that Crestai sent according to the "oracle".

After all, this could mean a Sequence 5 Beyonder characteristic.

In terms of gold pounds alone, the bid can be as high as eight thousand gold pounds, or even five figures.

But just as "the gift of fate comes with a secret price", Star still has no intention of accepting it.

Star didn't know what the Goddess of Night was planning.

He just decided last week that he would be promoted to "gatekeeper", so he could "give her a pillow when she's sleepy". Could it be that she likes him?
Bah, bah, bah, what a narcissistic idea - in short, Star was really confused for a moment, and his first reaction was naturally to reject it righteously with Creste.

But Krestai's visit was obviously a political mission for the Goddess of Night. He devoutly used his own example:
"Mr. Star, as a 'senior deacon' I can carry a holy object. As a 'divine one', can't you be in charge of a first-level sealed object to better spread the glory of the goddess?"

What Creste said was just short of telling Sta directly, "This is the goddess's mission, please cooperate with me, Your Excellency the Goddess's Blessed One."

Otherwise, in this spacious living room, Krestai and Star were in a stalemate and he would feel very uncomfortable if he couldn't send out the sealed object.

Although he didn't know why he was chosen to do this, since the goddess had asked him to do so, even if Star told him to "respect your position when interacting with others in the church", he would still use his identity as "God's favored one" to refuse the "express delivery".

Kresty also...

I have to swallow my pride and let Star reconsider it.

However, Star did not have the airs of a high-ranking person. He just complained about Krestai's statement:
These are two different things, right?

To be honest, Star was stunned and for a moment he almost didn't know whether he should accept it or not.

However, looking at the "sickle", he suddenly remembered that he originally had two other options for his next promotion.

Judging from the fact that the Faceless Man chose the Fool's path and that he himself preferred to use the symbol of "fooling" in Sefirah Castle, his choice of path actually has some impact on the authority of this path?

Well, if the Goddess of Night knew that she had to choose one of the three in the "Eternal" realm, the purpose of Her sending this extraordinary characteristic of Sequence 5 of the "Death God" path in the Black Death War would be very obvious.

However, regarding this type of seal, could it be that the Goddess of Night has any special instructions - for example, does She intend to support me in launching anti-Japanese activities?
After all, Sta felt that the three major churches had come out together to cover up Tingen City's actions. How could the goddess be kept in the dark? She must know what he had done.

There are so many seals in the Death God Path, why only send a "gift" of this shape?

Therefore, there is only one truth!

The "moon" tonight is really "red"...

Although it's still daytime, the meaning is pretty much the same.

Regardless of whether he was overthinking it, it was possible that the "Death" path simply matched the "Scythe" very well.

Anyway, Star thinks this idea is very promising.

This is what He meant by Dark Night.

If that's not what she meant, let her have that meaning too.

Anyway, it's just a way of expressing my opinion...

After much consideration, Star finally "temporarily received" the sealed object from Creste in the name of "custody".

"Hosting" does not mean taking it directly. Even if the goddess has any requirements, he will have room to maneuver.

Moreover, if the goddess really needs anything, Star also thinks that he can help her fulfill it -

It's just the goddess' mission.

In fact, if the "Holy Emblem of the Night" Star had not been unused and was always lost in the gray fog, the goddess should not have gone to so much trouble to let this "Sword of the Goddess" make a special trip?
Thinking of this, Sta suddenly felt a pang of conscience.

People have treated me even better than those who are favored by God. Even my own son doesn’t have such good fortune, right?

You can't be putting a knife to his neck and forcing him to make this choice?

So, as he sent Krestey away, he smiled with a "very satisfied" smile, tapped his chest four times, outlined the "shape" of the scarlet moon, and said:

"Praise the goddess."

"Praise the goddess."

Krestai also drew a crimson moon on his chest. Although he didn't know why it was sent to the God's favored person in this indirect way, Krestai, who was devoutly devoted to the goddess, felt that:

Lord Star must have secretly helped the goddess complete some task, which is why he received this reward!

Or maybe, even in the incident in Tingen City, there were traces of Lord Sta's involvement?

That must be it!

Star watched Creste go away, thinking about how to get the goddess to "go into the water"... Bah, while going into the water, he suddenly thought:

Who the hell is he?
Why did the gods have to make plans in advance and form an alliance?
Star scratched his head as he looked at the "real and virtual" field that was spreading out beside him, and at the countless points of light:

He always felt that everything came too easy...

It couldn't be that all the suffering was endured in that "weird dream" before he woke up, right?
He did not make any random guesses, but just looked at the time. He thought he could invite Audrey to discuss investment and other matters.

Before that, let's see whether to change the "scythe" of the "God of Death" into another style. After all, this style is prone to cause unknown risks.

Star also felt that the negative effect of this sealed item, "randomly extracting the spirits of those who bully the weak within a 300-meter radius," was very satisfying, but if it was sealed and it was still like this, what would happen if it was unsealed?

It’s not good to make too much noise.

At least not yet.

……

Backlund, another location in Queens.

Audrey was called by her father, Count Hall, who had a serious face. Using her "mind reader" she observed her father's expression of suppressed anger and panic, and she couldn't help feeling guilty.

"Hmm~Did Dad find out something?"

This was the first thought that came to her mind when she was nervous.

Audrey thought about how she had sometimes sneaked out of parties without saying anything in the past. Could it be that she was discovered at some point?

If so, she had to explain herself:
For example, Dad is also a believer of the Goddess and should know that the Goddess taught them that women also have the freedom to choose who to associate with.

For example, Audrey felt that she could act like a daughter to her father, Earl Hall, and let him know that this was a good person, fate...

"Audrey, I need to know what you are going to do with those supplies you asked someone to buy recently?"

Before she could continue thinking about it, Earl Hall saw that the servants in the room had been cleared out, leaving only a harmless golden retriever, and spoke in a very serious tone.

Audrey was confused for a moment after hearing her father's question:

Hey, isn't that what you're talking about?

So what was she thinking about just now?

Audrey's delicate face was tinged with shame, and the courage she had just mustered to confront him suddenly disappeared.

That's not the case... Ugh, why do I have these thoughts... Audrey, you are such a fool...

Audrey pinched the beautiful lace of her white dress, feeling a little embarrassed.

Well, but someone is also a big fool...

At the same time, this thought popped up in a corner of her heart.

Maybe he hasn't met her formally yet to let her confirm that she is safe?
