“Of course.”
Ciel looked at the Keyman with an expression as if looking at an idiot, and said, “Otherwise, how would I have survived until now?”
“Very good...”
The Keyman slowly grinned, revealing a terrifying smile.
As long as they could also successfully use the people of the Divine Advent Church and the Church of the Savior Goddess to summon that thing, and slaughter the army outside...
Even if the Divine Advent Church didn’t truly rge with the Church of the Savior Goddess, as long as they created such a spectacle, it would basically cut off any possibility of the Church of the Savior Goddess turning things around...
They could then complete the mission given to them by the high-ranking mbers of the Society of rrint. Even without achieving complete subversion, they could, with the Society of rrint’s help, join other subversion plans and stabilize the potion in their body...
This way, they wouldn’t have to follow the tedious plan the Faceless ntioned... They didn’t have that much ti to follow those plans, even if they had very high feasibility.
Every day they delayed, the variables would beco larger. They had to act imdiately.
“Let’s go. Take to et the people of the Divine Advent Church.” The Keyman looked at the young girl before them and said.
“Hey... You’re not going to choose the most boring way to solve this, are you?”
Ciel narrowed her eyes and spoke mockingly without rcy, “That’s why you have indigestion... Ugh!”
The feeling of her throat being instantly constricted made Ciel unable to breathe. She pressed her hands against her neck, but touched nothing. She could only feel blood continuously flowing down her neck.
With just a little more force, Ciel’s neck would be smoothly sliced off.
What is this? A transcendent item?
Ciel’s vision gradually blurred. In her blurred vision, she could see the Keyman before her, their eyes narrowed slightly, filled with a sense of danger.
They seed to have been hit by Ciel’s words and were getting anxious.
Just as Ciel was about to suffocate and lose consciousness, the thing gripping her neck instantly vanished. Ciel, who had been lifted, fell to the ground. Her vision went black. She didn’t even have the strength to cough.
“Bandage yourself up. Then go gather the people from the Divine Advent Church and the Church of the Savior Goddess. I will be watching you.”
On the verge of losing consciousness, Ciel heard the Keyman’s final words. After an unknown amount of ti, she gradually regained the feeling of blood flowing back, and her fingers moved slightly.
“Wait, Lord Faceless, don’t move yet.”
A familiar voice sounded from above. Ciel slowly opened her eyes. At this mont, she was lying on the sofa, reaching towards her neck. It was already bandaged.
And the person speaking beside her was rritt, kneeling there, helping her bandage.
“Ahem...”
Ciel sat up. Feeling the burning pain in her neck, she cursed, “Truly malicious, this freak. Doesn’t treat her subordinates’ lives as lives, huh.”
rritt, who had originally intended to stop Ciel from cursing the Keyman, cautiously glanced at the blind “Blood Painter” Pickman beside her and closed her mouth.
It seems you two are quite similar...
Ciel scanned her surroundings, didn’t see the Keyman’s figure, then looked at rritt and said:
“Prepare the carriage. There’s work to be done.”
“The carriage is ready. Can leave anyti.” rritt replied quickly.
Ciel stood up from the sofa. Her body swayed slightly, then she followed rritt, who was leading the way.
This Keyman... is truly sinister. Emotionally unstable, turning hostile in an instant, like a lunatic.
She had originally thought everyone in the Society of rrint spoke nicely and the atmosphere would be more cheerful. It seems she was too naive.
I will definitely catch your fox tail and tear off your disguise... You can’t escape.
Her simulated self had prepared at least three traps for the Keyman, and the Keyman, without hesitation, stepped into a trap that was completely within Ciel’s comfort zone.
In that case, it’s not my fault...
...
The carriage sped along, shuttling through the rainy night of Clock Tower Alley. Soon, it stopped at the entrance of the Church of the Savior Goddess Clock Tower Church.
At this mont, the church was sealed, and a cordon had been set up around it. Many police officers were on duty—but they were all like decorations, useless.
In other areas of Clock Tower Alley, many drunkards were wandering the streets at this ti, picking fights, and even other figures engaged in illicit activities were openly present at the alley entrances.
This was the normal state of chaotic nights in Clock Tower Alley. The previous riots had rely added fuel to the fire of chaos here.
However, strangely, the area around the Clock Tower Church seed devoid of such chaos. It seed people were unconsciously avoiding this place.
As soon as Ciel got off the carriage, the detectives had already pulled open the cordon and respectfully lowered their heads—in this future, they had also beco servants of the Divine Advent Church.
Ciel walked directly towards the church door. The originally tightly closed church door slowly opened, and a slender figure directly greeted her.
“Lord Ciel!” Tara quickly walked to Ciel’s side, slightly lowering her head. Her voice held unconcealable excitent. It seed she hadn’t seen Ciel for a long ti.
And the people standing behind Tara were even more important.
One was “Radiance Bishop” Hugh, the other was “Missionary” Uris. Both were mbers of the Church of the Savior Goddess. At this mont, they stood behind Tara as if her attendants.
In this simulation, her simulated self had not captured Hugh. She was naturally alive and well. And like Tara, she completely recognized Ciel’s identity.
Besides the help of the divine servants, her simulated self also used a little trick.
That was to have Hugh and Uris re-carve the face of the faceless Goddess statue inside the church to look like Ciel.
This way, with clear targeting, her simulated self could communicate using the statue through the new skill 【Omniscient】.
This made Hugh and Uris even more convinced of Ciel’s identity and had no resistance at all to the fusion plan Ciel described... However, now, this plan was to be put on hold.
“Have the others gather. There’s work to be done.” Ciel looked at Tara and said.
“Yes.”
Without asking why, Tara nodded directly and left, taking Hugh and Uris to notify the others to co.
It took about ten minutes. All the transcendents of the Divine Advent Church and the Church of the Savior Goddess in Berren City gathered in the Clock Tower Church’s central hall. Ciel stood beside the pulpit, looking at the thirty or forty transcendents before her.
Many of them were originally mbers of the Church of the Savior Goddess who were investigating at Deton Manor. Many of them still held deep resentnt towards the Divine Advent Church, but were not openly hostile due to Hugh’s command.
The sacrifice at Deton Manor before, although there were many people... many ordinary people were mixed in.
This ti, the quality of the transcendents before them was clearly much higher.
“The army has entered Berren City, Lord Ciel.”
After the crowd had gathered, Tara walked to Ciel’s side, stood on tiptoe, and whispered.
She did not ask if there was a follow-up plan, only stated a fact to Ciel, providing information.
“Mm.” Ciel nodded slightly, not paying too much attention.
Ordinary human armies, no matter how many ca, were just sacrifices in the face of the upcoming sacrifice.
Just as Ciel was about to speak, a familiar voice sounded in her mind.
“Faceless, have them obey .”
It was the Keyman’s voice.
Before Ciel could even speak, the Keyman’s voice sounded again.
“The entire ritual process must be presided over by .”
Just as I intended.
Ciel slowly raised her eyes, turned to look at Tara beside her, and said, “Later, a key figure will co. Have everyone obey them. The upcoming summoning ritual for the Holy Spirit will be presided over by them.”
