Arcanum: Chaos Path

Chapter 395 Medici Ascends to the Throne of the Angels Again

The Sun God had clearly learned about the situation from Sasriel. He didn't say much, but simply looked at Medici and asked, "Do you need to familiarize yourself with the uniqueness of the Red Priests again?"

Hearing this, Medici's gaze fell on the Red Priestess's uniqueness. Thinking of her rejection not long ago, he did not show any disappointment or coldness. Instead, he chuckled and said, "Does that matter? As long as we can accommodate her, that's fine."

“That’s right, that’s the mindset you need!” Luo Lin nodded repeatedly, like a tyrant in feudal times who arbitrarily bestowed marriages upon couples, saying, “Being accepted by you, Little Red, is the Red Priest’s unique blessing. It’s ungrateful for it to refuse. What’s with the white moonlight Tudor? It’s already dead. Why should it compete with a living person like you?”

After these words were spoken, there was an eerie silence for a few seconds. What was originally a simple matter of accommodating uniqueness suddenly took on a dramatic and melodramatic feel.

"Please shut up, okay?" Medici, whose expression hadn't darkened just moments before, suddenly turned sour and glared at Rowling.

"I'm just telling the truth, Xiao Hong, you're not going to break down, are you?" Rolin looked at Medici with an innocent expression.

Medici: ...

I really want to punch my boss, is that allowed?

“However, you can’t beat me right now.” Roland shrugged, clearly understanding Medich’s thoughts, and said with a smile, “I’m Sequence 0 now!”

Medici glanced at him expressionlessly, then sneered and said, "I don't believe you can stay at Sequence 0 forever."

As one of the people in the world who knows Rowling best and has the best relationship with him, Medici naturally knows some things, so he can roughly guess that the Sequence 0 brought by Rowling's new ability will not last long.

This time, Rolin's smile froze. He stared at Medici with a dark look for a few seconds, then revealed a sad expression and said, "Was all the trust I placed in you all these years ultimately misplaced?"

Medici immediately made a face of gritted teeth, rolled his eyes, and said, "What do you mean by all these years? Have we known each other for a year?"

"Oh, look at what you're saying. As the saying goes, a day apart feels like three autumns. Although we haven't known each other for long, it doesn't affect our good relationship. If you think about it, we've known each other for many, many years." Luo Lin stopped being "heartbroken" and started talking nonsense with great conviction.

Medici was too lazy to pay attention to him anymore, but his eyes were somewhat unfocused.

So they've only known each other for such a short time?
But Medici fell silent as he reflected on what had happened in the past year.

To be honest, this period of less than a year has been more exciting than the previous thousand years.

And Rowling was far more memorable to Medici than anyone he had ever known before.

"...So, does this uniqueness still exist?" The sun god finally asked at this moment, his voice gentle.

Medici also came to his senses, looked at the sun god and nodded, saying, "Of course."

Perhaps the Red Priestess's uniqueness doesn't recognize him, but so what?
Just as Rowling said, a forced marriage doesn't need to be sweet or thirst-quenching, and he doesn't need a unique endorsement either.

As long as the people he cares about acknowledge him, and as long as he can use this power to fight for those who deserve it, that's enough.

Looking at Medici, who had clearly figured things out, Rolin smiled with amusement, then glanced coldly at the "Salinger Blood Flag," who seemed to sense the danger and was finally starting to stir.

And so the flag fell silent once more. Rowling didn't care what the Red Priestess Uniqueness thought; perhaps it valued Tuldor, that madman, more. But for Rowling, the Red Priestess Uniqueness's sole value lay in being accepted by Medici.

Moreover... thinking about the shady things that Tudor, that madman, did in the original story, Rowling couldn't help but purse his lips, just thinking that the Red Priestess's uniqueness really wasn't very good.

Of all people to fall for, she had to fall for a madman. She truly deserves to be polluted by the River of Eternal Darkness.

The Sun God naturally noticed this scene, and couldn't help but smile, nodding and saying, "Then let's begin!"

So, on this day, half a month before 1350, Medici once again became the King of Angels!
……

Although they had become the King of Angels, they still had to do their jobs, so Medici and Rolin quickly returned to the Church of the Spirits' headquarters, and also brought along Little K and others who had almost finished handing over their work.

Herabergen didn't come with them. The old dragon wisely chose to stay behind to help Sasriel, who had just logged back in, with his work. Of course, he probably also wanted to take this opportunity to learn about the booming business that Rolin and the others were currently engaged in, and he might even take this opportunity to ask Sasriel for some information about Rolin.

After all, compared to others, Hrabergen didn't know much about Rolin.

Luo Lin was fully aware of this and tacitly approved of it. After all, he never minded that more people knew about his information. Anything that could be known by others was information that Luo Lin was willing to spread. As for the truly core information that could not be leaked, Luo Lin would not tell anyone.

Back at the Church of the Spirit's headquarters, Rowling remembered something, looked at Medici, and stroked his chin, saying, "Speaking of which, didn't we forget to discuss the uniqueness fee with Helabogen?"

From the source material contamination encountered in removing the Red Priest's uniqueness to the smooth process of having Medici accept the Red Priest's uniqueness, Rowling had really forgotten about it, handling it as casually as picking a cabbage from his own garden.

"Don't worry, I've already talked to that old dragon. You don't need to pay the unique reward for the Red Priest." Medici glanced at Rolin, his tone unusually gentle, probably because he was in a good mood.

Hearing this, Rowling paused for a moment, then looked at Medici with a mixture of emotion and surprise, as if he were looking at his own big cat that could go out hunting on its own, filled with a strange sense of relief.

Medici, who could perfectly understand what Rowling's eyes meant: ...

He wants to beat up the boss again!
"...Didn't you say you were going to help Azik suppress His other half of his soul, suppress Death's uniqueness? You haven't forgotten about that, have you?" Knowing he had never won an argument with someone, Medici chose to change the subject after enduring it for a while.

"How could that be? I've been thinking about this all along! Otherwise, why would I have brought Xiao Ke and the others along?" Luo Lin retorted, and just as he finished speaking, a knock sounded on the door.

"Lucifer, Medici, are you there?"

Azik had come to the study after receiving prior notice from Rowling.

"Come in!" Roland responded, beckoning Azik to come in from outside the door.

The study door then opened, and Azik, who seemed to be in good spirits, appeared before everyone. He first greeted Rowling and Medici, then his gentle gaze fell on the three little ones, and he said, "Long time no see, Azik, Jack, and Amon. It seems you've been doing well lately."

The three of them, including Xiao Ke, quickly greeted Azik, and the atmosphere in the study became warm and harmonious.

Afterwards, Rolin explained to Azik the purpose of his visit and asked, "How are you feeling now? If I help you suppress the other half of your soul, do you think you can successfully merge with it?"
