Devil's Bible

Chapter 179 Nem and Nems
Five days later.

A horse-drawn carriage quietly approached Baiwei Town.

The carriage curtain was lifted, and a boy of about thirteen or fourteen years old was looking around with great curiosity.

"Naimu, why have you taken your clothes off again?" Daros slowly stopped the carriage, preparing to undergo the city entry inspection. He turned around and lifted the front curtain, only to see that the boy inside the carriage had taken off his clothes.

"I'm curious, why are you wearing clothes?" asked the boy named Naim, puzzled, since he had been soaking in the solution and didn't need to wear clothes at all.

When Daros unearthed the 'Holy Son,' he wanted the Holy Son to choose a name for ease of reference.

So the Son chose the word 'name'.

Daros paused for a moment, then said, "Nobody uses 'name' as their own name."

“Then I’ll choose this one. I think it will be very interesting.” Naim quickly learned to speak. His learning ability was terrifying. Before, although he could understand words, he couldn’t speak them. However, after only half a day, he became familiar with most common phrases.

"Also, when I came in, I felt like I was walking into a river..." Naim didn't dwell on the clothes with Daros; he put on his clothes while expressing his feelings.

"Perhaps the large number of people creates too many auras, affecting your perception," Daros said, scratching his head, finding it difficult to understand some of Nem's perceptions.

During his journey to Baiwei Town, Naim shared his feelings about many things.

For example, when talking about dangerous creatures, he would say that the other person was in great pain and seemed to be dying.

These assessments may be correct, but they exceed the general understanding of most people.

However, no matter what, Daros still valued Naim very much.

Make a note of the other person's feelings, and then investigate based on that; you might get unexpected results.

For example, before, Naim sensed the aura of the 'great whale', and sure enough, he found a piece of whale skin mineral in the grass.

"Is that person also family?" Daros was taken aback by the Holy Son's sudden question.

He immediately turned around and saw Nemus riding a horse inside the city, looking in this direction.

Daros immediately tensed up.

After all, they had already analyzed that Nemus's goal was also the Holy Son.

It's just that Nemes probably found it inconvenient, which is why he forced them to do these things in that way.

Now it seems that this was indeed the case. He had just brought the people back, and hadn't even entered the city yet, when Nems had already discovered them.

"But when did Nair plant his spies?" Daros asked nervously.

This time, to play it safe, Daros and Nem did not take the trade route where the paladins were stationed, but instead took a side road.

He hadn't interacted with anyone else from beginning to end, yet Nems had already arrived at the door. Does that make sense?

"Could it be that Nair is spying on us in some way?" Daros even considered drawing the 'signal arrow' to notify the family.

"Why are you so nervous?" The Holy Son's curious voice eased Daros's tension somewhat.

Because he discovered that the Holy Son showed no wariness towards Nemus, which at least indicated that Nemus might not harbor much malice towards the Holy Son for the time being.

"Don't be nervous." Before Daros could reply, Nemus drove his horse to the side of the carriage, smiled and said to Daros, then turned his gaze to the Holy Son.

"Your name is Naim, right?"

“You find it interesting.” The Holy Son felt a sense of joy at being acknowledged.

“That’s very interesting.” Nemes nodded, then said, “I know a man named Nemes (nameless).”

“It’s also very interesting, as it contrasts with my name. I would like to get to know him if I have the chance.” A joyful expression appeared on the Holy Son’s face.

Having been raised in the environment of holy blood since birth, he was incredibly pure.

However, this purity is currently just naiveté. It is an 'ignorance of the world' created in an artificially isolated environment.

Whether he can maintain this purity after entering the complexities of society remains to be seen.

“Then there will be an opportunity.” Nemus nodded with a smile. He didn’t think the Dartmenley family could recruit the Holy Son for their own use.

Another important point is that there is also a failed Holy Son named Rhine in the town of Baiwei.

Furthermore, Rhine currently clearly has a need to upgrade to a gold-tier seed.

Bringing the Holy Son back at this time will most likely lead to some trouble.

"Are you thinking about something fun?" the Holy Son asked curiously.

“Yes, I think the future might be very interesting.” Nemus smiled and nodded, then bid farewell to the Holy Son.

"So I'm going to prepare for the exciting future. Goodbye!"

He rode Manemus into Tailwind Town. As a Grand Knight, he didn't need to be checked after showing his badge.

As he walked away, Nems looked back.

The moment the Holy Son stepped into Tailwind Town, Nemus confirmed that his previous senses were correct.

Based on his perception of the course of history, the Holy Son would indeed become a key point in the future development of Baiwei Town.

"But is it because I'm at the forefront of history that he has that name?" Nemus pondered as he rode his horse.

Names have meaning.

The demon's true name is a matter of life and death for the demon.

In this situation, the fact that the Son chose a name for himself that is 'completely opposite' to himself is a very important signal.

Of course, this does not mean that the Holy Son will necessarily be one's enemy.

Conversely, it doesn't mean being enemies; it simply means that in certain situations, the meaning is different.

Just like in alchemy, some opposing elements, when combined, can become pure and be refined into gold.

However, given the current situation, the meaning that the name represents in the course of history cannot be immediately determined.

As Nems considered all of this, he couldn't help but feel a surge of joy.

He looks forward to the stage and to an increasingly exciting future.

This would add a little more brilliance to his decaying life.

At this moment, he felt that the entire town of Baiwei was becoming more and more interesting.

Meanwhile, the Holy Son, watching Nemus leave, was also filled with confusion.

He didn't quite understand why that person was so happy.

But being happy is always a good thing, right?

"Why was that person beaten?" The Holy Son then had even more questions.

He saw a man entering the city whose clothes had soiled a carriage horse. The servants surrounded him, dragged him aside, and beat him severely.

When faced with this question, Daros naturally gave the answer: "Because that person is a bastard."

　Don't get hung up on why the words for "another world" are related to English. It's just a strange coincidence that they happen to be homophones and synonyms.
