Chapter 1120: The Attitudes of the Angels
Prizport.
A young man with black hair and black eyes, a gaunt face, and a monocle over one eye rode a bicycle, wobbling slightly as he leisurely returned to the front of his ho.
With an obvious smile on his face, he opened the mailbox and took out the newspapers and letters inside.
At that mont, he suddenly pinched the monocle over his right eye and chuckled to himself:
"Alvin Abraham? This is a Miracle Invoker’s ritual, isn’t it?
"Seems that near the Hornacis mountain range, He defected to Evernight and obtained the protection of Concealnt?
"Truly interesting!"
...
Backlund, No. 7 Pinst Street.
Leonard, who had originally been summarizing the cases Sherlock Moriarty had been involved in, suddenly heard a sigh—one that undoubtedly ca from the old man.
He imdiately put down what he was doing and lowered his voice. "Old man, what happened?"
"The Abraham family is about to revive..." Pallez’s aged voice carried obvious emotion, a mix of sighing reflection and envy.
Both were angel families that had gradually declined. Abraham had reached a turning point in fate, while Zoroast was still struggling to survive under Amon’s shadow.
"Abraham? I rember you ntioning that they were great nobles of the Tudor Empire, even ranked above the Amon family," Leonard asked in surprise. "What happened to that family?"
"Alvin Abraham has just beco an angel, and He carried out a continent-wide ’broadcast’ to announce it," Pallez replied.
"A continent-wide broadcast? Why didn’t I hear anything?" Leonard asked in confusion.
Pallez let out a chuckle in his old voice. "Because only beings at the angel level or above can hear it.
"Of course, angels who are not good at handling ’information’ are excluded."
I see... But that’s still terrifying. Is this the might of an angel? Leonard mulled over the old man’s words for a mont, then asked after so thought:
"Why would that angel nad Alvin Abraham announce his advancent?"
Pallez chuckled. "Of course it’s to complete the advancent ritual!
"Also, the situation on the Northern Continent is rather subtle right now. I suspect He’s also waiting to see what price the various countries will offer... After all, no nation would refuse an angel’s allegiance at such a ti.
"And the Abraham family has been silent for a long ti. If they want to revive, they really do need to first attach themselves to a country and restore their noble title."
Hearing this, Leonard asked in confusion, "The Northern Continent’s situation is subtle? I don’t see it at all. Where exactly is it subtle?"
Pallez fell silent at once. He said nothing for a long while, and only after quite so ti did he speak:
"Alright, I’ve already said enough today. I’m going to rest. You should get back to your work."
Hey, old man, that brush-off is way too obvious! Leonard shouted a few more tis inwardly, but received no response. Left with no choice, he picked up the files again and resud reading.
...
Backlund, Bridge District.
The "Mystic Queen" Bernadette naturally also received Alvin’s "announcent," and she couldn’t help but murmur to herself:
"Alvin Abraham... I rember Father once asked Uncle Benjamin about this person’s deeds... I never expected that after disappearing for over a thousand years, he would return as an angel...
"But this thod doesn’t resemble an Apprentice pathway ability... Could it be a Grade ’0’ Sealed Artifact collected by the Abraham family?"
After using her Prophecy ability to probe a bit and gaining no information, Bernadette set the matter aside and took out paper and pen, beginning to write a letter to Cattleya.
Previously, she had used the Eye of Pryer to peer at Pale Death. Although the process had been extrely "dangerous," she had still gained sothing.
"Lamia... Giuseppe...
"Why would people from decades ago be connected to the true na of that hidden existence, ’Liu’ ’Bo’ contained within Pale Death?
"The people I sent out haven’t gathered detailed intelligence yet. Perhaps I can use Roselle’s diary to ask that ’Mr. Fool for answers?"
...
Feysac Empire, in a small town within the Antals mountain range.
After receiving "Alvin’s announcent," the "Duke of Terror" Yaldabaoth curled his lips and thought to himself:
"Has it already begun?
"Just as Lord Oliver predicted, his later self would inevitably avoid the trap he left behind in the ’Soul Stone’...
"But that doesn’t prevent Lord Oliver from ultimately taking the dominant position in the final fusion.
"However, the only variable at present is the ’Seal of Calamity’... Even I can’t see through what exactly He has arranged."
...
Bansy Harbor.
The three-in-one evil spirit of Sauron Einhorn dici, who was "creating" a mural, also stopped what he was doing.
"A re Miracle Invoker dares to be so flamboyant? Is he not afraid of being directly wiped out by Evernight and Storm?
"Even your Abraham ancestor Bethel was exiled!" dici sneered outright.
Einhorn on the right imdiately retorted, "dici, did you sacrifice your brain to the True Creator? Even though he switched to Miracle Invoker, whether it was the previous Door pathway or the current Fool pathway, both are synonymous with being ’hard to deal with.’ How could he be caught so easily?"
"Heh, no matter how hard to deal with, wasn’t Antigonus still locked in the Evernight Kingdom? Isn’t Bethel still exiled beyond the world?" dici mocked.
Einhorn argued with dici for a few more lines, but never heard Sauron speak. Realizing sothing, they asked together:
"You seem to be hiding so secret?"
"No!" Sauron denied flatly.
"You’re lying!" dici and Einhorn said in unison. "Ever since hearing the ’announcent,’ your mood has been quite good!
"Did you secretly strike a deal with soone behind our backs?"
Yet no matter how they pressed him, Sauron ignored them, rely thinking calmly:
At last, I see the dawn of breaking free from these two fellows!
...
While many angels were either pondering or discussing what changes the Abraham family’s return to the continental stage would bring, Ebner had already brought Dorian and the others into the "chariot."
Although this alien "Goddess of Wealth"’s carriage did not look very large from the outside, its interior contained another space, enough to accommodate everyone guarding the foot of the Hornacis main peak.
—After "announcing" his advancent, this location would inevitably be discovered by interested parties. Leaving as soon as possible was the better choice.
The nine mighty and imposing extraordinary creatures let out long cries at the sa ti, and the chariot soared into the sky, directly slipping into the Bizarre Domain Ebner had set up with his abilities.
"Alright, I assu you’ve already confird my identity. Now, if you have any questions, feel free to ask."
After pretending to instruct the "Saintess of Yellow" Natalia to serve tea to the Abraham family mbers, Ebner leaned back against the chair of the main seat in imitation of The Fool and spoke casually.
