[Through... materialism... due to the initial understanding of the "Scale of Truth" operating rules, your resistance to this anomalous object increased, and you were already able to block the general level of influence.]
Accompanied by the badge system's prompt in his ear, Leon felt a shiver run through his body, as if he had suddenly lost control of himself, producing an unimaginable urge to confess.
"I touched... that True God tier Brain-Eating Demon's... rear..."
As Leon's words landed, the right side of the [Scale of Truth] tray, that had been raised high, finally received its first weight, a weight no larger than a grain of rice, yet it pressed the tray down slightly.
*Strange, such a trivial matter, not even a secret, could create a weight, and its value was acknowledged by the Scale of Truth?*
Looking at this weight which shouldn't have appeared, the Aquarius Director's brow furrowed slightly, once again sensing the unsettling crisis of plans veering off course and events gradually slipping out of his control.
*There were too many peculiarities about this Leon, shouldn't... swap questioning to soone else?*
But just as the Aquarius Director considered whether to eliminate Leon, a date-sized weight suddenly crashed down, instantly leveling the crooked Scale of Truth.
"Through the Devil's Badge... I directly... seized control of the True God-level Brain-Eating Demon."
*Badge? What sort of item is that?*
Seeing just a vague na with weight comparable to four of his own secrets' weights, the Aquarius Director, who had hesitated to switch people, suddenly felt his eyes light up.
"What is the Devil's Badge as an anomalous object? What is its effect?"
"The Devil's Badge... is not an anomalous object... its effect is... direct control over all demons with corrupt attributes as anomalous objects..."
*Not an anomalous object itself, yet can directly control all demon anomalous items? Such an unreasonable thing exists!*
After hearing the specifics of the Devil's Badge's effects, the Aquarius Director couldn't help but gasp, about to speak further when he noticed the Scale of Truth had completely shifted positions, the tray on his end raised high by an egg-sized weight.
"..."
*Trouble... If I keep asking, I might have to divulge so unimaginable secrets myself; is it worth it?*
However, the Aquarius Director hesitated for only a mont.
Facing sothing capable of forcibly controlling a True God-level anomalous object via a Third-Class Cleanser was worth a bit of risk, and it was nothing to leak a bit for the mont; as long as Leon was eliminated right after the deal, a dead man wouldn't betray secrets!
"I'll speak next, revealing a way for anyone eting certain conditions to directly ascend the Watcher's Palace... To completely replace the Taurus Director, I crafted six high-hierarchy, inter-cooperative anomalous objects."
As the Aquarius Director spoke without expression, the left side of the Scale of Truth continuously accumulated weight.
"The effects of those six anomalous items are occupying the body, simulating the soul, replicating personality, fabricating emotions, replacing the past, and simulating the future.
These aspects—body, soul, personality, emotions, past, and future—are enough to cover everything about a person.
If I possess the Taurus Director's body; have the sa soul, emotions, and personality as hers; even with identical past and future, then even the mighty Watcher's Palace must acknowledge
as the Taurus Director."
"Plop."
An egg-sized weight fell, the right side of the Scale of Truth finally tilted high up, but the Aquarius Director, still feeling unsure, spoke to add more weight:
"The entire Rebel group arose to accomplish this goal, with anomalous body-seizing items held by Luke of the Rebels; soul-copying items with Barton whom you killed; the future-simulating item, Nathan's Gate of the Other World;
The emotion-fabricating item lies with Oliver, whose face shows ever-changing emotions, and the personality's birth cos from one's past mories and experiences. By having Phoebe completely erase my mory and Lucy implant Taurus's mories, I can more or less simulate the Taurus Director's personality.
Among the six anomalous items, only replacing the past and forcibly altering reality was troubleso; I tried over a dozen tis unsuccessfully, but recently found it, that is your sister's photograph..."
...
Rapidly recounting this plethora of secrets, the Aquarius Director looked at the now-maxed-out left tray, nodding in satisfaction, then looked over at Leon across, his eyes full of fervor as he said:
"It's your turn now, how exactly is your Devil's Badge..."
"Besides the badge, I have other valuable secrets!"
Not waiting for the Aquarius Director to finish, having just understood the [Scale of Truth]'s rules, Leon directly mimicked the Aquarius Director's earlier statent, speaking first with a twinkle in his eye:
"I'll now speak of a revolutionary social theory, one that can establish new governntal structures outside Kingdoms, federations, and other outdated regis, and a comprehensive theoretical system corresponding to it, enough to change the world with the anomalous objects' influence extracted.
Starting with historical materialism, social developnt is determined by the economic base. Changes in the economic form inevitably lead to social transformation, and progress and reform are realized through class struggle..."
