Arcanum: Chaos Path

Chapter 349 Siblings with One Bloodline
The Mother of Heaven was even more puzzled.

Antigonus stopped sobbing at this moment. It was clear that after his emotions subsided, he was a little embarrassed. He first withdrew from the embrace of the Heavenly Mother, and after stammering for a while, he finally said, "I'm fine. I'm just so glad to see that you're alright, sister."

The Heavenly Mother paused for a moment upon hearing this, a thoughtful look flashing in her eyes. She then reached out and patted Antigonus's head before gently saying, "Can you tell me what happened, Antigonus?"

Antigonus was silent for a few seconds, then finally nodded and said, "Okay, sister."

Antigonus didn't hide anything and recounted everything he knew in a slow and unhurried manner.

The Heavenly Mother listened quietly. After she finished, she sighed and said with a somewhat dazed look in her eyes, "I remember now, what happened that night... It was truly a long nightmare."

Antigonus lowered his head somewhat dejectedly, his ears even turning into airplane ears, and the whole wolf looked utterly dejected.

“But thankfully, the nightmare is over now, isn’t it?” The Heavenly Mother suddenly smiled, as if she had finally broken free from a long nightmare. She looked at Antigonus with gentle yet firm eyes and said, “Although they are all gone, thankfully we are still together, just like thousands of years ago.”

“No, we are much better off now than we were thousands of years ago.” The Heavenly Mother shook her head again, then patted the wolf’s head and said, “So don’t be sad, Antigonus. Fate is always cruel, so we must always look forward.”

“Sister…you still know how to talk.” Antigonus said in a muffled voice, but his ears, which had been drooping, perked up at this moment, clearly indicating that he was in a much better mood.

"Oh, right, sister, let me introduce you. This is the being I now follow, Lord Lucifer." Antigonus then seemed to remember something and began to introduce his current boss to his sister. Recalling everything that happened during the previous treatment, he couldn't help but shrink back slightly before saying:

"Lord Lucifer is a great being, greater than... even greater than our father. It was He who saved us."

The Heavenly Mother paused for a moment upon hearing this. The unspoken understanding between the siblings made her immediately realize the meaning Antigonus was conveying—the other party was very powerful, extremely powerful, and could not be trifled with.

The Heavenly Mother then looked at Rolin, revealing a gentle smile, and said, "Please forgive me for only greeting you now, Lord Lucifer. Perhaps you don't mind if I address you as Lord, like Antigonus?" Her attitude was humble and respectful, but not subservient.

“I allow you to call me that,” Rowling said with a smile and a slight nod.

“Praise be to your mercy, Lord.” The Heavenly Mother immediately changed her form of address, and then asked, “Great Lord, is there anything I can do to serve you?”

Seeing the Mother of Heaven instantly get into character, even Roland was a little surprised. He then smiled and said, "You have three days off to rest and enjoy your reunion. I will arrange work for you after three days."

"Furthermore..." Rowling paused, then took out a booklet from his alternate dimension and handed it to Antigonus, saying, "I don't like people who don't follow the rules. These are the rules you must abide by to follow me. You'd better memorize them, otherwise I wouldn't mind having another angelic characteristic as a collectible." This booklet wasn't something Rowling had hastily put together; it was one of the teaching materials he had compiled when reforming the members of the Spirit Cult. Considering that Antigonus and the Heavenly Mother, as natural mythical beings and remnants of the Fourth Age, might have some bad habits, Rowling simply made it clear to avoid any trouble they might cause later and put him in a difficult position.

After all, Rowling really liked his new pet and didn't want to get a new one anytime soon.

Of course, Rolin wasn't really worried. After all, neither Antigonus nor the Mother of Heaven were the kind of cruel angels who liked to kill innocent people indiscriminately. Even without a warning, they wouldn't necessarily go after ordinary people. With a warning, given their cunning, they were even less likely to do anything that violated Rolin's bottom line.

Upon hearing this, Antigonus's hair stood on end, not from anger, but from sheer fear. Without a second's hesitation, he took the booklet and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Please rest assured, we will definitely abide by your rules and will never violate them."

Unlike her younger brother, Tianzhi's mother, who harbored deep psychological trauma towards Luo Lin, also lowered her head and said meekly, "Your will is our will."

Seeing the wolf siblings' sensible attitude, Roland smiled and said, "You can come find me here in three days..."

He then gave them a few addresses and briefly introduced himself and the Fool to the two of them, saying, "Of course, if you need anything during this time, you can also contact me through these two names."

The wolf siblings nodded repeatedly.

Roland didn't intend to disturb the warm reunion of the wolf siblings. He simply glanced at Amon beside him and said, "Are you planning to stay here and catch up with Antigonus?"

"Is it not allowed?" Amon raised his hand to push up his monocle and asked in return, his attitude very frank.

"Whatever you want." Roland glanced at Him and nodded indifferently. Even if Amon really had some bad intentions, Antigonus was still the unique King of Angels, so he wouldn't be left without even a chance to call for help.

So Rowling left decisively afterward. He had achieved all his goals in visiting Antigonus. He not only gained a pet and a subordinate who seemed to be very good at internal affairs, but he also obtained a copy of each of the "Memories of Despair," "Sad Emotions," and "Tears of Joy"—the first two of which Rowling had taken along when he cured Antigonus.

Although only one of these three items can be used in the potion for "Pleasure Believers" because they all come from Antigonus, it at least gives Roland more leeway.

After Rolin left, Antigonus's gaze immediately fell on Amon. The previously docile wolf now revealed a hint of danger, saying, "I don't think I have anything to talk to you about."

“Don’t say that, Antigonus. We’re old friends, after all,” Amon chuckled and said slowly. “Besides, don’t you want to get to know the Lord you’re following better? I know him much better than you do.”
