Capítulo 154: After the Curtain
"From today onwards, Mr. Wrath will be in charge of the matters in the capital city of Lenburg, Esala."
The old gentleman briefly explained the situation of the newly joined Mr. Wrath. After the members of the council got to know each other, he looked at a man sitting to the left of the long table wearing a Pride mask and asked, "Mr. Pride, how's the handling of the Demoness of Afflictions in Backlund?"
"Although it's a little complicated, the Demoness has been successfully eliminated, Mr. President." Mr. Pride nodded with a smile. The two eyes on his mask grew on his forehead, giving him a natural feeling of superiority. His tone was the same.
"How was the exact process? Did you expose yourself to the Church's officials?" asked the old gentleman who was called president.
"Mr. President, you worry too much. Why would I personally participate in the game?" Mr. Pride shook his head with a smile. Then, he organized his words and said,
"That Demoness of Afflictions, Ray, who received the attention of the Primordial Moon, is a part of the big plan. She more or less knows of the goal of our Psychology Alchemists. Therefore, I've been guiding the official factions to eliminate her, so as to prevent her from going crazy and revealing some secrets, ruining our plan.
"In the beginning, I wanted the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom to eliminate her. This way, I can prevent the Demoness from having any contact with the three Churches of Loen, increasing the possibility of her leaking the secret.
"Through some friends, I learned that the ritual prepared by Demoness of Pleasure, Ray, for her advancement was likely a Harvest Sacrifice that believed in the Primordial Moon. This should be the influence the Primordial Moon had on her, so as to further corrupt and control her.
"Therefore, I designed a sheriff's wife to go to the Harvest Priest's house to request for medicine and pregnancy. And that sheriff has a good relationship with Detective Isengard, who was sent to Backlund by the Church of Knowledge.
"After the Harvest Sacrifice was used by Ray as an advancement ritual, and he lost control and became a monster, the sheriff, who couldn't obtain any follow-up drugs, went to Detective Isengard's office to issue a commission. However, it was somewhat different from what I guessed. The sheriff had entrusted his student, Detective Breen, who was just a little famous at the time because Isengard was too busy with detective work.
"Some accidents began from here. I originally planned on letting Detective Bryan meet the Demoness of Afflictions, who had just advanced, during an investigation. He would then be killed, which would lead to the investigation of Isengard and even the Church of Knowledge. Therefore, I carefully arranged a car accident to hold back the Demoness, preventing her from going to the Harvest Priest's house early to obtain the Primordial Moon's item. I also missed Detective Bryan, who came to investigate."
However, to my surprise, Detective Bryan quickly found clues about the Primordial Moon and the item. Then, he left the Harvest Priest's house in advance and went straight to the Harvest Church…
When the president of the Psychology Alchemists heard this, he frowned and interrupted, "What's the reason for the accident? What's so special about this Detective Bryan?"
"I only found out later that this detective is a Blessed of Earth Mother, which is why he recognized the Primordial Moon's item," Mr. Pride replied.
"I see… That makes sense." Mr. President nodded and let Pride continue.
Mr. Pride looked at Madam Sloth and said elegantly, "Thanks to Madam Sloth's help, the Church of Earth Mother quickly reacted and sent an elite team of Forsaken Ones to Backlund to carry out the mission to eliminate the Demoness."
Wearing a mask that looked like the wearer was sleeping, Miss Sloth raised her head lazily and waved her hand. She casually said, "It's rare for you to ask, so I naturally have to give you face… However, about the matter, you promised me…"
"Don't worry, I won't break my promise." Mr. Pride raised his head arrogantly, indicating that he wasn't someone who went back on his word. Then, he continued,
"The Demoness named Lena fell out with Ray and escaped. I gave her a mystical item in the dream, allowing her to 'luckily' avoid Ray's pursuit, so as to reveal Ray's information and goal to the Forsaken One who arrived in Backlund.
"But something happened to Lena again. She actually encountered Prince Edessak, who happened to be out and received protection from the prince. This clearly doesn't match the organization's predetermined future, so I wanted her to be found by Ray after she finished sharing the information. I wanted to use her hand to get rid of Lena.
"Therefore, I arranged for Detective Bryan's fiancé, a classmate named Roman, to meet with Lena. Then, I got his other classmate, Susan, who was very close to him, to bring Roman to find Detective Bryan to issue a commission so that he could meet with Lena and obtain information.
This place was originally very smooth, but strangely, after the mystical item I gave Leena suddenly lost its effects, she wasn't found by Ray… This might be because Ray had been corrupted by the Primordial Moon back then, causing her to lose a lot of vigilance and gradually go crazy.
"I didn't interfere too much in Ray's later schemes. It was Ma'am Sloth who led the Forsaken Land and Detective Bryan into it.
"I only magnified the Pride in Captain Mandated Punishers and neglected some information. Finally, I made Backlund's Mandated Punishers lose a Grade 1 Sealed Artifact that's good at divination.
And Demoness Ray was also killed by Detective Bryan due to the bad luck brought about by the Sword of the Goddess…
"The Demoness of Pain, who caused a deviation in our predetermined future, was eliminated… It didn't cause the officials to investigate the royal family, nor did it expose the existence of the organization. After that, Leena should've left the prince because her father and brother were executed by the king.
"That's the general situation. As for the details, I'll provide a document later."
Having said this, Mr. Pride sat back in his seat, looking faintly pleased with himself, apparently very pleased with his "arrangement."
After some thought, the president nodded and said, "I've also been paying attention to the developments in Backlund. In the beginning, I noticed Detective Bryan's activity and thought that he was a chess piece arranged by some existence to destroy the will of the Lord… Now, from the looks of it, although he has some problems, he shouldn't be targeting us… After all, many of his actions were actually directed by you, Pride."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Wrath, who had just joined the council and hadn't said anything, curled his lips slightly. The mask that looked like it could roar at any moment had a hint of humor, but it quickly vanished without attracting anyone's attention.
"Mr. Pride, your mission has been completed very well. I'll give you the reward you deserve later…"
With that said, Mr. President, who was dressed like an old-school gentleman, surveyed the members of the council and continued,
"The second matter to be discussed today is that many of the villages in the Loen Kingdom's East Chester County have recently encountered many mysterious matters involving dreams. And the source of the matter is likely a mind dragon.
"I need someone to confirm if this is true."
Just as he said that several councilors looked over with interest. Only Ms. Sloth and Mr. Wrath remained indifferent.
The former still looked like she was sleeping, while the comical expression on the latter's mask seemed to flash past again.
…
In an unknown space, a plain quill wrote:
"The Psychology Alchemists' Pride Hvin Rambis was overly arrogant due to the influence of the Personality Mask, so he overlooked many details. He believed that the series of events regarding Demoness of Afflictions Ray had always been under his control… This is very reasonable."
At this point, the quill suddenly turned into a ferocious and furious dragon, but before it could do anything, it suddenly turned into bubbles and disappeared into the dust of history.
…
At two o'clock on Thursday afternoon, Ebner, who still didn't know he was going to be famous again, walked out of his room looking excited.
As Ray had been killed by him, Detective Isengard, who was happy that his old friend Inspector Wayne had gotten his revenge and was no longer threatened by the Demoness, temporarily lent him 2-081.
And just now, he had finally finished analyzing the Polymath potion formula.
