Kapitel 308: Chapter 309: Artisan: It's a Trap
Compared to reviving the former Lord of Mysteries, Klein now seems much better in all aspects. Although the Lamp Ginne is an Outer God and will eventually oppose Klein, it won't face a fate worse than death. At least, it won't suffer worse than falling into the hands of the former Lord of Mysteries.
Of course, there's also the chance the Lamp Ginne's vision is poor and it mistakenly takes Klein as a naïve cat.
'Well, you never know. Among all the Outer Gods, only it got tricked into being sealed, indicating either its brain or eyes have some issues…' Lynn pinched his chin, feeling his guess was quite reasonable.
Now that he remembered the whereabouts of the "0-05 Wishing Lamp," Lynn wasn't in a hurry. He planned to borrow it after Roselle and his daughter met in the evening. He could also ask Roselle, the former owner, for some advice. Although Lynn wasn't particularly afraid of the Lamp Ginne, there were still many ordinary people around him. If any trouble arose, it wouldn't be good. Therefore, he needed to understand its characteristics in advance to prepare accordingly.
'If I could convince the Lamp Ginne to let me study it voluntarily, that would be even better…' Lynn murmured to himself, suddenly hearing the voice of the Evernight Goddess.
"Sorry to keep you waiting."
"It's alright, it wasn't very long," Lynn responded, smiling as he looked up at the Evernight Goddess. His gaze also fell on the angel behind the Goddess, who seemed a bit puzzled.
Yes, the reason Lynn hurriedly transferred his main consciousness to the Fourth Epoch after persecuting Roselle was to meet the Evernight Goddess. Or more precisely, to meet the God of Steam and Machinery, who had been persuaded by the Goddess, and to take the agreed-upon characteristic of the Illuminator.
At this moment, seeing the future God of Steam and Machinery in person, Lynn couldn't help but examine the individual.
The person in front of him was a youth dressed elegantly. The only reason Lynn thought of the individual as a youth was because he couldn't quite determine if they were male or female.
Judging by the face, the Angel of Crafts could be a girl, though with some handsome features. However, looking further down, Lynn saw short silver hair typically sported by males and a flat chest that did not differ much from a boy's. The attire also leaned more towards masculine.
If it were a normal person, as a master of disguise, Lynn could have judged correctly. But this individual had many modified parts, making it impossible to judge by normal human standards.
'So, he is a boy with girlish looks?' Lynn blinked, staring at the person for a couple of seconds, still unable to tell.
"This is Yuggs Stiano, you can call him Artisan or the Angel of Crafts…" Amanises, unaware of Lynn's internal struggle, first introduced him beside her, then introduced Lynn to the puzzled Artisan, "This is the Mechanical Angel, Libert Abraham. You should have heard of his name."
Artisan's pupils shrank. Of course, he had heard of Libert Abraham, or rather, recently anyone above a certain level had heard of this name. This was mainly due to his status as the son of Mr. Door and the recent creation of the "Gathering of the Gods" by him.
'But why was he here? And why was he the Mechanical Angel?'
At this moment, Artisan, who had no concept of steam and machinery yet and was only familiar with traditional Beyonder weapon modifications, showed a clear confusion. he looked at Lynn, thought for a moment, and then spoke: "Hello, Mechanical Angel, nice to meet you."
His voice was crisp, leaning towards feminine.
Lynn smiled back and said, "Hello, Angel of Crafts. I am also very pleased to meet you today."
"Libert, here's the agreed-upon item." Seeing the two getting along, Amanises suddenly interrupted, handing a sealed metal box to Lynn.
"Thank you very much, Amanises." Lynn raised an eyebrow, took the metal box, and without much formality, as this was part of the deal.
"Wait, is that…" The Angel of Crafts, watching from the side, seemed to sense something. This wasn't surprising. As an Illuminator, it would be strange if he didn't react to the Illuminator characteristic.
"The Illuminator characteristic, part of my deal with Amanises," Lynn answered without hiding it from Artisan, smiling as he opened the metal box. Inside was the Illuminator characteristic, sealed as an artifact.
This wasn't unusual. Most angel-level characteristics that weren't assimilated turned into sealed artifacts over time. Pure characteristic forms were rare.
But this wasn't an issue for someone at the angel level, who could easily revert a sealed artifact back into its characteristic form.
Lynn picked up the Illuminator sealed artifact, raising an eyebrow as he sensed a provocative aura from it. "It's Alive?"
This was a sealed artifact with sentience.
"That's fine…" Lynn chuckled. A sentient sealed artifact could be troublesome for others, but not for him.
In the next second, Lynn extended a bit of his spiritual power into the sealed artifact. The sealed artifact, which had been provoking him moments ago, began to tremble as if terrified.
Lynn wasn't surprised. Through 0-08, he had discovered that high-sequence sentient artifacts were more sensitive and fearful of his aura or corruption than regular angels.
He had thought about why this was the case and concluded that these artifacts had low intelligence, while his corruption, whether mild or not, was of an extremely high level, causing them to misjudge.
Or it might be because these artifacts' sentience couldn't compare to human souls, making his mild corruption lethal to them.
Regardless of the reason, this didn't prevent Lynn from using his trait to "reason" with sentient artifacts.
After spending a few seconds convincing the Illuminator sealed artifact to work for him obediently, Lynn looked up at Artisan, who seemed completely dumbfounded.
Indeed, his mind was a mess. He looked at Lynn and the Illuminator sealed artifact in his hand, then at Amanises, who was just a step away, and asked in a defeated voice.
"If I voluntarily give up the Illuminator characteristic, will you let me go?"
