"Because I need to constantly remind myself that there are more Evil Spirits in this world waiting for to deal with,"
Inside the villa.
Du Wei said faintly to the two, Alvin, "Every ti I see this Evil Spirit Doll, I whip myself into action, reminding myself that if one day all the Evil Spirits are eradicated, that's when I can stop this self-imposed discipline and tell myself it's okay to rest."
Annabelle was safe at ho, and since I already marked it, even if it escaped to the other side of the world, I could pull it right back.
I didn't care in the slightest.
The reason I let Alvin Dowqui and Kane, the two hunters, know about the Evil Spirit in my ho was to lay the groundwork for the future.
After all, the Evil Spirits still alive in New York are pretty much bound to .
Sooner or later, the church would find out.
It's better to throw out a bait first, so later on if I ever summon an army of thousands of Evil Spirits and Evil Entities using the Marks at the outbreak with the Antique Clock, I could baffle my way through, just barely.
Of course...
Du Wei guessed that it probably wouldn't cause such a big fuss.
As for Alvin Dowqui and Kane,
although they were puzzled by the Evil Spirit Doll in Du Wei's ho, seeing Annabelle locked in the display cabinet motionless, just like it was dead, they didn't pay too much attention.
It obviously appeared to be heavily restricted.
It wasn't capable of stirring up any trouble.
On the contrary, Du Wei's attitude made them even more satisfied.
If all Exorcists were like Du Wei, it would be perfect, and all Evil Spirits and Evil Entities would have been eradicated long ago.
But as satisfied as they were, they didn't forget their purpose for coming to Du Wei's house.
"Mr. Du Wei, about that envelope..."
Just then, Alvin Dowqui noticed a glass jar about ten centiters tall on the coffee table. It contained Bone Powder, and underneath it was a yellowed Envelope.
A glint of sharpness flashed through his murky eyes as he pointed at the Envelope and asked, "Is that it?"
Kane also looked over.
Du Wei replied, "Yes, that's the Envelope. A traitor from the Dusk Bell Church ca to New York. Later, I didn't expect him to be struck dead by lightning. The Envelope is what I got from his body."
"It's an Evil Spirit Envelope, but sohow the Dusk Bell Church managed to deal with the Evil Spirit issue, and they preserved its ability to retrace the events that happened ten minutes prior."
"Moreover, it knows Matthew."
Saying this, Du Wei walked to the coffee table and pulled out the Envelope.
The Envelope felt slightly cold to the touch and emitted a strange fluctuation, which then vanished in an instant as if it were assuring Du Wei of its absolute loyalty.
After all, apart from the shadow, nobody could withstand the Coin and dice... and not withstanding ant death.
Reassured, Du Wei handed the Envelope to Alvin Dowqui, "Regarding Matthew, I'm actually quite puzzled myself. I think it's possible what the Envelope says is false, so it would be best if you could verify it."
No sooner had these words fallen
than a row of question marks appeared on the paper inside the Envelope: [Master???]
But the next second, the words all disappeared.
Because Alvin Dowqui had already opened the Envelope, and was pulling out a piece of paper from inside.
anwhile, a chilly dread began to emanate from his body.
Kane frowned deeply and said in a low voice, "There indeed is an Evil Spirit lurking within, I can sense its danger, but it seems to be restrained by so force, unable to break free."
Alvin Dowqui nodded and then turned to Du Wei, "How do I use this thing?"
Du Wei replied indifferently, "Just ask it your question."
Alvin Dowqui humd in response, then silently stared at the piece of paper in his hand. The aura around him grew more oppressive, plunging into an Evil Spirit Transformation.
It was evident that this aging hunter had never let his guard down.
The reason he undertook this task was that he was about to die and didn't want his companions to waste their energy, as it wasn't worth it.
"Tell about the Dusk Bell Church, I need to know everything about Matthew."
Alvin Dowqui's voice was old and chilling, revealing the frailty of the spry old man only after he had entered the Evil Spirit Transformation.
The Envelope trembled as if being suppressed, and the writing on the paper rapidly materialized.
[Just now, Alvin Dowqui asked about the Dusk Bell Church, but in truth, I'm not very clear on it, as the Dusk Bell Church is a secretive organization, and I am simply one of the first batch of Evil Spirit items to have been taken in.]
[But the matter of Matthew, I rember vividly. Many years ago, this man established the Dusk Bell Church and soon after declared dead, the sa year the leader of the Dusk Bell Church appeared.]
[By this logic, every so often, when the leader dies, a new leader erges.]
[But in fact, they are all the sa person, that is Matthew...]
The sentences were simple, not every person is worthy of the Envelope's flattery.
From the side, Du Wei observed coldly, but inexplicably, a trace of chill flashed across his eyes.
This Evil Spirit Envelope, while communicating with Alvin Dowqui, referred to itself as "I" rather than the Envelope, nor as the 'you' following Hannibal at that ti.
The most critical part was that Kane had also felt the threat from the Envelope.
It seed that his so-called "loyal" subordinate was still not obedient enough...
Inevitably,
Du Wei mused to himself, "The Shadow was nearly obliterated by the Evil Spirit form of before, and even now it hasn't recovered half of its forr strength. It seems it's ti to give it a break and give the Envelope a chance."
The questioning continued.
Alvin Dowqui, once again to the side, posed another question to the Envelope, "Did Matthew use that thing hidden by the Dusk Bell?"
[I do not know if he used that thing, but I do know it has been missing for a long ti.]
Alvin Dowqui, with an expressionless face, handed the paper to Kane, allowing his companion to verify it once again.
Then, he turned to Du Wei and said, "Do you rember the ssage I asked you to deliver to the people of the Dusk Bell before?"
When the two first t.
Alvin Dowqui had requested Du Wei to convey a ssage to the Dusk Bell, informing them of his imminent death.
Du Wei nodded and said, "Of course I rember, what do you an?"
Alvin Dowqui said indifferently, "Look at now, lifeless, I can't be sure if my consciousness is my own or that of an Evil Spirit. I won't last many days. When I die, that will be the day you go to St. Bodia to take my place."
"We still need to further confirm the information this Envelope has provided. If it's true, I will go to the Dusk Bell and confront Matthew in person."
"Even if it ans death, I must find out the exact nature of that thing."
"Also... be wary of the Vanity Sect... Once you join us, their people will definitely co after you..."
