Bab 236: Chapter 155: 'Trap'
Klein nodded at Audrey's question, that was something that had confused him when reading it.
'I thought the path that the Demoness Sect controlled was called <Assassin>? Why then does Chariot call it <Trap>? Could it be an old name perhaps?'
Honestly, if among the options he had been given for the pathways was the Assassin, he would likely have chosen it.
That would be if he had never read that page of Emperor Roselle's diary where he regretted not choosing the Seer, Marauder, or Apprentice pathway.
Adryan chuckled again, but this time was a little darker.
This made everyone present nervous.
Klein suddenly felt the urge to put his hands to his crotch.
"That's quite simple but first I'll ask you a few simple questions, consider them a little test to see if you learned what we wrote to you."
"First question, are there any men in the Demoness Sect?"
"There are none, Mr. Chariot, even when a boy is born in the sect they kill him, there are only women in its ranks." Audrey answered confidently.
"That's something the information you gave me didn't have, unlike the Hanged Man." She took the opportunity to provoke the man because he didn't know something as important as that and she did.
But because she was still a newborn she was unaware of a problem that Alger and Klein noticed the moment she pointed it out.
Especially Klein.
'Chariot is a high sequence beyonder how is it possible that he doesn't know something as important as that? That doesn't make sense!' He thought confused but immediately his eyes sparkled with realization.
'Or is the information not correct and that's why he didn't write it?'
'How is it possible that a member of the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom does not know such well-known information? Or does he know something that we don't?' Alger narrowed his eyes at the redhead.
Adryan waited a few seconds not saying anything on purpose, so that Klein and Alger would notice the problem that Audrey pointed out.
"Second question, what is the name of the path that the Demoness Sect controls?"
"It's the Assassin pathway" she answered confidently and also added teasingly.
"That's why it confuses me so much that you call it <Trap Pathway>. Or is it that you didn't know what it was called and made it up?"
Adryan chuckled in amusement at Audrey's lame attempt to provoke him.
"I'm sorry Miss Justice, but you still have 50 years to go before you can provoke me with those kindergarten insults, I'm sorry to inform you that those so-called insults of yours only work with others your age or younger."
A vein began to throb on Audrey's forehead and she began to growl in annoyance.
Klein and Alger looked at this and inwardly shook their heads.
'I'm sorry Miss Justice but you asked for this, you never provoke the Provocateur' Klein thought feeling bad for the woman but did nothing to stop the assault.
"You..." she growled but before she could continue she was interrupted by Adryan.
"Last question, what is the name of Sequence 7 of the assassin's path?"
Everyone present was taken by surprise by this question.
Audrey was confused while Klein and Alger could sense that something bad was about to happen.
"You do not know?" The redhead asked with false surprise, which was too obvious.
This annoyed Audrey, but holding back her annoyance she asked.
"I don't know what the name is Mr. Chariot, is it relevant to my question from before?"
Adryan chuckled darkly.
"It is miss, believe me, it is..."
The air in the Divine Palace turned cold and heavy, especially for Alger and Klein.
Adryan stopped beating around the bush and finally revealed the secret.
"The name of the sequence 7 of the Assassin pathway is Witch."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Everything in the Divine Palace seemed to freeze.
"What do you mean by that, Mr. Chariot?" Audrey asked stammering, her stomach wanting to release its contents.
Klein had to contain a gag and the need to take his hands to his crotch to verify that his soldier was still there.
Alger had frozen.
"He he" Adryan chuckled softly and replied.
"Exactly what you are thinking <how can a man be a witch? Only a woman can be one!>"
"You know that saying in Intis? The one about <The perfect woman is a man>?"
"Every woman in the Demoness Sect was once a man!"
"Oh Goddess..." Audrey muttered in astonishment as she fell into her chair and put a hand to her forehead.
Alger tied the ends together and couldn't help but want to vomit.
Klein's expression had frozen into his calm face, but his mind was something else...
'PRAISE YOU GODDESS! PRAISE YOU FOR NOT LETTING ME CHOOSE THAT PATHWAY!'
Klein was so grateful that he began to sing to the Goddess in his mind.
Audrey was the first to recover, she looked at Chariot in shock and dumbfounded.
"But how is that possible Mr. Chariot?! Changing gender... Are there other pathways that do that? Is there one that turns a woman into a man?" She asked horrified, if her pathway was one of those...
A prank came to his head, so laughing darkly he responded.
"Everything is possible in the Beyonder world Miss Justice, from men being turned into women and women being turned into men, it is even possible to turn a person into a goat!"
Everyone present was stunned by this information, Alger put a hand to his forehead and began to massage it to calm his mind.
But Adryan hadn't finished his antics.
"In answer to your other question, there are several paths that change the gender of a man to a woman, an example would be the Seer Pathway and Sailor Pathway." He turned to look at a frozen Alger.
"In the future, it is very likely that we will have a Miss Hanged Man!"
Klein's skin had turned pale, but for the thick mist covering him, no one saw his horrified expression.
The happiness that had previously filled his mind was replaced with horror and despair.
'NOOOOOOO!!! FUCK YOU ROSELLE! BECAUSE I FOLLOWED YOUR ADVICE NOW I WILL BECOME A WOMAN!!!'
If this continued like this, it was likely that Klein and Alger would lose control...
So to avoid that...
"Hahahahhahaha" Adryan laughed maniacally as he punched the bronze table, his entire body shaking with laughter.
"OH FUCK! HOW I WISH I COULD SEE YOUR FACES! HAHAHHAHAHA"
Tears were falling from Adryan's eyes.
Alger robotically turned his head to where Chariot was.
"That…was that a prank?!" he asked weakly, his expression slowly breaking into a completely furious one.
He had to hold on to his seat to keep from jumping on the man!
Klein eyed Chariot with pure venom.
'I just have to control the gray fog and I could drown him...No...that's too easy...'
He began to consider possible punishments for this madman who had given him the biggest scare of his entire life.
"What's wrong with you, Chariot?! Are you crazy?!" Audrey yelled furiously, no longer able to control herself and exploding at the man.
"Huff* huff* sorry sorry you guys were so stiff I thought you needed a scare to get up!"
"He he... I didn't expect your reaction to be so strong." he said naughty still laughing.
"Ahh that was fun!" he exclaimed joyfully.
All the people there wanted to hang this madman.
But they didn't for various reasons.
Audrey and Alger because Mr. Fool hadn't said or done anything.
Klein because he did not dare to fight against a High Sequence and lose his mask.
After a few moments, Adryan finally calmed down.
"Oh fuck that was great!"
"Leaving that prank of mine aside, what I said before was true."
"There are many pathways that can turn a man into a woman but Seer and Sailor are not one of them. Although Seer from sequence 6 onwards can <disguise as a woman>"
He then sighed in disappointment.
"Though there is only one pathway that turns a woman into a man...It's a bit unfair, you know?"
He looked at Audrey and laughed mischievously.
"In case you are interested, is the Hunter Pathway"
Audrey felt a hollow in her stomach.
"Chariot...that was one of the paths you offered me right?" she asked weakly.
Klein and Alger looked at her uncomfortably.
"If it comforts you a little, before selling you the formula I was going to tell you this." Adryan replied casually, as if commenting on the weather.
_________________________________________
On a separate note I want to say this.
It will be short.
THIS IS NOT HAREM!!!
I would never betray LOM in such a horrible way by making it a Harem.
I wouldn't do that to you who are reading this story either.
I'll tell you this too: I hate harems so don't worry, this book will never become nor have that in it.
I don't want you guys to get a bad idea just because I introduced a lot of female characters and hardly any male ones.
There will also be men but that will take time so please be patient with me.
Sorry if there was any confusion.
Have a nice night and see you later in the day.
