Kapitel 224: Chapter 225: The Lost Sanguine in the Church
"But even if you were once an Angel, you're now just Sequence 7..."
An ordinary person might panic at this moment, worrying about accidentally revealing their true identity, but Lynn was clearly not ordinary.
So, Lynn shrugged and said naturally and innocently, "I don't know! Maybe because I was once an angel, I still retain some angelic characteristics, like status?"
He glanced at Klein and continued, "Just like you, you also possess a status that ordinary Sequence 7s don't."
This, of course, referred to Klein's identity as the Fool.
"Uh..." Klein coughed unnaturally and explained, "Our situations are different, and... under normal circumstances, I don't possess the status of a higher sequence."
'Unless I borrow the power of the gray fog...' Klein added silently in his heart.
"Maybe it's because the Angel of Secrets is beside me, so I get a bit of His status? Although He didn't personally watch your performance, we're not far from Him, so maybe the potion judged us as a whole?"
Lynn did not continue to pressure Mr. Fool, instead proposing a new possibility, which he thought was closest to the truth.
"That could indeed be possible..." Klein thought for a moment. Although it still seemed absurd, he had to admit it was a possibility.
Lynn then showed an eager expression and said, "Next time, we can do an experiment. I'll be an audience when you perform, to see if it helps with the digestion of your potion."
"I happen to know someone who would be a great target for your next performance," Lynn said, smiling. He continued, "He is a Sequence Six Dawn Paladin, a devotee of the Earth Mother. I happened to learn about him..."
Lynn then recounted the story of Father Utravsky. It was a simple story: Utravsky was once a notorious pirate, but one day he was moved by the Earth Mother's teachings and became a loyal follower, completely reforming himself.
However, the divide between his past and present caused Utravsky to develop a split personality. To avoid losing control and causing things to spiral, Utravsky hoped someone could use a special Spectator pathway artifact to enter his deepest dreams and confront his past self, allowing him to be reborn.
"Although Father Utravsky is Sequence 6, his artifact weakens his past self in the dream. With your strength, I think it's manageable..." Lynn said, stroking his chin before revealing his true intention.
"And the key is, if you can defeat his past self and help him be reborn, you might earn his friendship, which could help with a commission of mine."
"What commission?" Klein asked, glancing at Lynn.
"You know about Sanguines, right? Recently, a Sanguine in the South Bridge District went missing. His parents commissioned someone to find him."
Lynn smiled as if remembering something, "Of course, they didn't reveal their Sanguine identity. I discovered it during my investigation. But since I took the commission, I'll try my best to complete it."
"Is that Sanguine being held in the Harvest Church?" Klein's expression became subtle.
"Yes, and from my investigation, he might have accidentally wandered into the church and got caught..." Lynn gave a knowing look.
Klein: ... 'Wandering into a church and getting caught, how absent-minded is this Sanguine?'
"After discovering they were Sanguines, I thought about abandoning the commission, but I found out that they are quite harmless. The one imprisoned under the Harvest Church is not just harmless but a bit naive. He even resorted to stealing blood bags from a hospital because he was obsessed with dolls and is too poor."
Lynn unabashedly criticized Emlyn White, "So I think it's worth saving such a harmless Sanguine, but..."
Lynn's expression turned subtle, "I might not need to save him. The next time I visit the Harvest Church, he might have already become a priest of the Earth Mother Church."
Klein raised an eyebrow, asking, "Why do you think that?"
"Because the Earth Mother Church has a tradition of converting Sanguines into followers." Lynn shrugged, revealing a secret of the Earth Mother, "Almost all captured Sanguines eventually reform and embrace the Earth Mother. It seems like a twisted hobby."
"...Maybe it's because the Sanguine pathway is adjacent to the Earth Mother's pathway?" Klein guessed after hearing this surprising tradition.
It wasn't a wild guess, considering the Evernight Church also had Beyonders from the Death pathway.
"That could be possible..." Lynn nodded, then appeared puzzled and melancholic, muttering, "But I feel it's not that simple."
Lynn's words hinted at a possible anomaly when he would greet the Earth Mother in the Harvest Church.
'Is there some hidden truth?' Klein wondered. He wouldn't ignore Lynn's intuition, even if Lynn hadn't regained his memories or prophetic abilities. Lynn was still special.
However, Klein couldn't guess the truth that the Earth Mother was actually Lilith in disguise. After a moment of wild guesses, he decided to put this matter aside and said, "After tomorrow's Blood Moon, we can visit the Harvest Church."
Klein was also curious if Lynn's presence could help digest his potion faster. If it could, it would be a boon, allowing him to complete his promotion more quickly.
Klein was confident in dealing with a weakened Dawn Paladin, especially after today's battle had given him a better understanding of his strength post-promotion.
And he was curious about the Sanguine imprisoned in the Harvest Church and his level of naivety.
"Let's find a time to go then!" Lynn nodded, sensing something and glancing towards the abandoned warehouse before continuing to sip his tea.
