Before Christina left, Aleister very thoughtfully asked the Mirror Demon to find a few new sets of clothes for her and look through some jewelry.
This way she can use it after she transfers to the Ziggurat.
Now let me eat the meat, and you can share the soup too - Aleister was too lazy to look through the treasure chest, so he simply asked the Mirror Demon to bring all the valuable things with him.
"...What if someone discovers that the earl has been killed and his property stolen...and the clothes I'm wearing happen to match, what should I do, mentor?"
At that time, Christina asked Aleister worriedly.
And Aleister gave the answer lightly: "It doesn't matter, no one will find out."
Although Christina still didn't understand Aleister's logic, she still chose to believe it.
After all, it was Aleister who saved her from death. Strictly speaking, this life belongs to Aleister.
...At worst, she could just keep all these and not wear them out.
Aleister and his party were teleported directly back to Prince Szijjarto's residence by the Mirror Demon.
Prince Szijjarto had previously allocated two guest rooms to Aleister. Selene was fast asleep in her room—drowsiness belonged to the animal instinct of the path of love.
But I don’t know if it’s because the Moon Child is special, or because Aleister himself is special... Her sleepiness is not obvious. As someone who is adapted to high positions on the road, Ms. Honey Badger is also more suitable for moving at night.
They got along quite well, so they stayed in another room together. Of course, according to what Honey Badger said at the time, she was "personally protecting Aleister to prevent her from escaping secretly."
At that time, she didn't know that Aleister was Aiwass, so it was normal to have such worries.
After all, Aleister looks like a bad woman with her own little ideas. If the mission entrusted to her by the Pope fails for this reason, then she is not rigorous in doing things.
But now, there is no need to continue to monitor closely...
Because of this, the honey badger also took the initiative to leave.
"You might as well go and take a rest," Aleister said casually. "With the Mirror Demon here, I don't need you to guide the way. I can teleport directly."
"……yes."
The honey badger responded with a somewhat complicated expression.
She suddenly understood the mood of the crow on Aleister's shoulder.
After the honey badger went to rest, Aleister planned to open a round of treasure chests and then continue working.
It's just a pity... Count Daun's usual residence is not in Leipzig.
Or maybe it's because he wants to hold a big ceremony, and in order to eliminate interference, he doesn't have many extraordinary props at home. There are more ritual materials that Aleister can't use and can't take away. And things that are too far away
, even the Mirror Demon cannot reach it.
But even so, the Mirror Demon still helped Aleister find good things.
——It was a fragment of flesh and blood placed in the crystal ball using a special technique.
It looks like a piece of liver, but it is beating slightly like a heart. Many small, blood-vessel-like black flesh extends from it, extending to the surface of the crystal ball.
"This is……"
Aleister stared at this thing intently, frowning slightly.
He touched it gently, but surprisingly no system panel popped up.
...How is this thing determined?
Aleister frowned slightly, with a hint of doubt in his heart.
However, even without systematic identification, Aleister could intuitively realize...this thing must be a good thing.
Because the moment Aleister touched it, her originally emerald green pupils suddenly lit up into scarlet.
This means that it is most likely related to the Son of the Moon...or in other words, it at least has a strong adaptability to the path of love, and can at least be used as a ritual hub for the path of love.
"I remember you mentioned..."
Aleister thought: "The Red Prime wants to attack him. Right, Mirror Demon?"
"—Yes, my lord."
Behind Aleister, the exquisite gold-rimmed dressing mirror is now steaming with ominous black smoke.
It has now sensed that the bishop has entered Earl Daun's villa - it even went to help open the door, and then turned back.
"Tell me, is there a possibility... that Hong Xiang attacked him just because of this thing?"
Aleister asked: "Do you think it's possible?"
——You ask me? How do I know?
The Mirror Demon thought in his heart.
But it still maintained a respectful and serious attitude, and after thinking carefully, it replied: "This possibility cannot be ruled out. Because my former master performed the most recent ceremony not long after he obtained this thing.
"It would make sense to say that Hong Xiang was hostile to him just to get this thing."
"What's the specific time? When did he get this crystal ball?"
"Mid to late December."
Mirror Demon answered without hesitation: "About a week before the New Year."
A little conversion, it should be shortly after Aiwass got the Book of Law and left Eagle Point Village.
And it's not even mid-March yet.
In other words, it only took Count Daun about three months to kill at least twenty young girls. Considering that it would take some time for him to conceive of this ritual, I am afraid that the time spent is far less than this.
He also needs Christina to be his broker, which shows that the number of heads he needs is far from enough...
"...Sure enough, Sherlock was right at the beginning. None of the demonologists are good."
Aleister sighed from the bottom of his heart.
As for herself?
——Miss Aleister is already a scholar of mortal sin, so it has nothing to do with me.
After all, Aleister put up the incomprehensible crystal ball first, briefly arranged a ritual for isolation, and covered it up.
It's already getting slightly brighter today, and although Prince Szijjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj.com was busy in the first half of the night, he has already fallen asleep. Anyway, Leipzig is full of monsters and monsters... with the deterrence of the Count of Leipzig and the prophecy of the astrologer.
.
If there is someone who is not afraid of the "rules" of the Count of Leipzig and can bypass the fourth-level prophecy and directly pose a threat to his enemies, then he would not be able to fight against him.
It's like living in a high-rise building in an earthquake zone...it's useless to run because you can't run away anyway.
Aleister's eyes were lowered, feeling a little sad for no reason.
... Whenever Aiwass suddenly thinks of earthquakes, he will be distracted for a moment. The same is true for Aleister now. Even though the memory of his previous life is vague and incomplete, those experiences today are still unforgettable.
"Sure enough, the sand clock was indeed not cut cleanly... Aiwass is not the only one who is sick."
After truly realizing where the remnants of devotion deep in his heart came from, Aleister breathed a sigh of relief.
That was something she couldn't forget - the true background of Aiwass's personality.
At this moment, news came from Aiwass on the other side. The work on the bishop's side had been completed... In other words, the Earl's soul had been sent to the dream world.
"If nothing else happens, his soul should also turn into a demon."
Aleister looked at the Mirror Demon and said meaningfully: "Although the Winter Demon has been sealed by me... but the remaining part, relying solely on his own sins, should be able to become a high-ranking person with a not too low energy level.
demon.
"For your safety—your contract should be ready, right? Let's sign it."
