From the Wandenreich's escape to One Piece

It actually allowed me to advance directly.

The noise from the others had nothing to do with Beltz; he was just a little surprised that Hassward would actually take action himself.

Although he was about to stab the horse bone, he didn't mean to actually kill it.

Is it really necessary to have Hasward personally participate?

And he even directly asked him to become a Sternritter Knight?

Could it be because the Five Elders' clones are still in an extremely vulnerable nascent stage, and they are afraid that their attacks might affect them?

Well, it's not impossible.

After all, they've only been around for less than a month.

They all look like old guys, but they're actually still 'babies'.

Their forms haven't stabilized yet?

Yes, that should be the case.

But was my previous guess wrong?

He had previously thought that the six Star Cross positions were already reserved, especially after seeing that he was going to fight Horse Bone, which further confirmed this idea.

The Five Elders occupy five positions, and the one who can help Yhwach find out the truth occupies the sixth.

But now I've actually taken the sixth spot?

"..."

Beltz stood to the side, lost in thought.

He still felt that his previous guess was correct.

So...

In other words, does Yhwach think that he is the one who can help the Empire find out who the target is?

Although they did not know what their soul abilities were, Yhwach could see through everyone's sacred writing.

So, maybe my ability is the ability to find out the truth?

If that's the case, doesn't that mean we'd have to let the murderer investigate?

Of course, it's also possible that they were sent to leave the Empire and investigate the invaders.

That's not bad either.

Beltz found it amusing.

Ideally, it should be as I imagine it to be.

Because they advanced directly, in the next round of the draw, the person who drew Beltz would be penalized with a -1 score, while Beltz would advance with a comfortable 3-0 victory.

The following matches weren't very interesting, and so a week passed just like that.

A week later, all the people who advanced were announced.

There are eight people in total in groups 3-0, 3-1, and 3-2, and six of these eight people will become Sternritter Knights.

Unsurprisingly, it will be Beltz and the Five Elders.

The remaining two had nothing to complain about.

As everyone could see during the match, Beltz and the Five Elders were completely at ease in their battle, and they only managed to advance with a hard-fought 3-2 victory.

In other words, the six strongest of the top eight will become Sternritters, while the two weakest will go on missions in the outside world, which makes perfect sense.

Beltz and the clones of the Five Elders went to Yhwach's palace.

I saw Yhwach with his eyes closed here.

Yhwach seemed to be asleep; none of the six of them spoke or opened their eyes after they arrived.

Six people knelt there, but in the end, it was Hasward who came out.

He arranged for someone to place a dish of bright red blood in front of the six people.

"Drink it."

Yhwach is not fully awake yet and will be asleep most of the time, so Haschwald is in charge.

Haschward said to the six, "Then, you will become full members of the Sternritter."

Beltz picked up the small bowl in front of him. Yes, this was Yhwach's blood, just like the two pools of blood he left in the pirate world.

He took a deep breath and then drank the dish of blood in one gulp!

"You will soon awaken your own sacred script."

Haschward said softly, "Just wait here. Tonight, I will summon the members of the Sternritter to the front hall. That will be your first formal meeting with your future comrades."

"Yes."

Beltz nodded slightly; he would stay here and await the awakening of the sacred text.

The awakening process of the sacred script is not long.

Unlike the Grim Reapers.

To gain power, Shinigami must first possess a Zanpakuto, then nurture it with their own soul essence for half a day before it can be released as Shikai, and then undergo a series of complex processes to achieve Bankai.

To activate the Holy Script, the Quincy only need Yhwach's blood and then wait for his soul to carve the Holy Script deep within their own soul.

What will my own sacred text be?

Beltz is also very much looking forward to it.

After all, ability is a crucial factor that determines one's future.

Although Aizen said that the battles of Shinigami are battles of spiritual pressure, abilities are also crucial, especially for Quincy. If they could obtain a rule-based ability, they could practically take off from the spot.

If Yhwach truly wants him to investigate the truth, then what abilities does he possess? Time travel? Mind reading? Memory replay?

Ideally, it would involve abilities related to time, space, and causality, but he knew that was too difficult.

Even Yhwach's most trusted personal guard did not possess this capability.

If he had such abilities, Yhwach would have promoted him to the Sternritter long ago.

So Beltz didn't have high hopes.

About two hours later, Beltz had a sudden inspiration.

He also knew what his sacred script was.

The sacred letter S stands for Shrink (psychologist).

As the name suggests, this is an ability to manipulate the mind, personality, and subconscious.

He can use telepathy, hypnotize targets, and issue commands through language, eye contact, or even spiritual pressure.

It can also pull the target into a dream world, amplify their emotions, and perform personality surgery, among other abilities.

Of course, like Zanpakuto, Holy Symbols also require forging.

The stronger the Holy Script is forged, the more angles it can be manipulated from.

Although this ability doesn't have any direct offensive effect, Beltz is very satisfied with it!

Because this means that, just as he thought, Yhwach really wanted him to investigate the intruder incident!

Isn't it okay for me to say whatever I want?

Not to mention that he had already made arrangements beforehand.

Moreover, such abilities are well-suited to a psychologist's professional role.

He sees himself as a behind-the-scenes figure, and his abilities as a psychologist are best suited to this role.

"It seems you've successfully awakened?"

At this moment, Ma Gu suddenly spoke up, clearly noticing Beltz's delighted expression.

The six of them were in a room, and no one had spoken for hours. When they heard Ma Gu suddenly speak, Beltz was somewhat surprised.

After realizing what was happening, he said, "Yes, my sacred script has awakened."

"Then let's go out. The commander should have already gathered the others."

It's clear that the Five Elders' sacred script awakened much earlier. No, if Beltz's speculation is correct, they may have had Yhwach's blood from the very beginning.

Therefore, the awakening of the sacred text was a completely natural process.

And now, are they finally going to start catching the mole?!
