Female Novel
Chapter 853
What do | think? If | were to know the answer, why would | be here? I'd have long handed this information to my superiors!Leonard silently mumbled as he deliberated over his words.
During this process, he discovered that, although he was standing straight and looking down on Dwayne Dantés, the tycoon whowas sitting leisurely in the reclining chair held the aura of having the advantage. It was like a high-ranking personage casuallylistening to his subordinate’s reports.
This made Leonard feel a little uneasy. He subconsciously surveyed the area and pulled a chair over as he leaned back into it,half out of habit and half as a deliberate action.
“| believe he, or all of you are searching for something.
“Back in Tingen, he infiltrated the Nighthawks to search for something. In Backlund, he also infiltrated Chanis Gate to search forthat item!
“His search was fruitless the first time, so he escaped by feigning death by using Ince Zangwill’s assault.“He still failed to find it the second time. Hence, he didn’t take anything and directly left Chanis Gate!”
While speaking, Leonard used a very certain tone to divulge that he had figured out that Gehrman Sparrow was SherlockMoriarty and also Klein Moretti. He wished to use the effect of pressure to make Dwayne Dantés not appear that calm or haveany thoughts of resorting to sophistry.
Indeed, he went to dig my grave... Klein sighed inwardly as he chuckled. He picked up the glass of red wine and gently swirledit.
“Do you think that we would consecutively make two rash attempts before having any confirmed intelligence? You should knowthat such matters can only be done once. Once there’s a failure, there’s no way it can succeed again.
“Therefore, who would use an operation to verify one’s guess when the target isn’t clear?”
He has tacitly confirmed my explanation. Klein Moretti is Gehrman Sparrow, Hero Bandit Black Emperor, a member of the secretorganization who believes in The Fool... Leonard tried hard not to frown as he crossed his right leg and said, “So, it’s not thatnothing was found, but that there was a failure due to other factors?
“During these two attempts, Tingen City’s Saint Selena Cathedral and Backlund’s Saint Samuel Cathedral only shared twocommon items: Sealed Artifact 2-049 and the Antigonus family’s notebook.
“Antigonus family’s notebook... That's it? Klein Moretti joined the Nighthawks because of it!”
Although the process of inference is wrong, the answer is actually correct... Klein chuckled and said, “Our brains aren’t there justfor show.
“If his goal was the Antigonus family’s notebook, there was no need for him to join the Nighthawks. Before you obtained it, hehad plenty of opportunities.
“And even after you obtained it, he had no lack of opportunities to obtain it. You should understand the situation back then betterthan | do.
“Also, since the target was the Antigonus family’s notebook, why didn’t he take it away?”
Upon being mocked by Dwayne Dantés, Leonard Mitchell realized that the theory he came up with on the spot was filled withlogical contradictions. He felt ashamed as he showed some anger.
He slowly took a deep breath and said, “Then why would he infiltrate Chanis Gate using two different methods? And not onlydidn’t he take something away, but he didn’t even leave anything behind. He even entered a strange state.”
Just as Leonard said that, he saw Dwayne Danteés with his gray sideburns produce a deep, profound smile.“I'm not sure of the reason for the latter matters. Perhaps you should ask the Evernight Goddess.”
Goddess... What does he mean? Leonard instantly felt alarmed and puzzled. He found it unimaginable as to what had happenedbehind Saint Samuel Cathedral's Chanis Gate.
Right on the heels of that, he heard Dwayne Dantés say with a deep laugh, “As for your first question, | believe you are mistakenabout something.
“Our organization’s members come from different places and join for different reasons, choosing to change their own faith in theprocess. As for what happened before that, their lives remain their own.
“Just like me. | had a past and have a present as well. The reason why | came here is because of the last name | gave myself.”
Dantés... The Return of the Count... He joined the secret organization that worships The Fool for revenge, and came toBacklund? Leonard nodded in thought.
Klein paused for a few seconds as he casually sipped the red wine and wore a smile. He continued, “Similarly, he, who wasresurrected because of the Antigonus family’s notebook’s curse, does it for vengeance as well.”
Klein had deliberately mentioned his present last name, Dantés, and mentioned revenge. It was to preemptively distinguishhimself from Gehrman Sparrow and Klein Moretti. It was to prevent Leonard from later finding similar objectives between the twoand begin making a deeper connection from the similarities.
By personally mentioning it, it framed the listener’s thought processes and made them subconsciously follow the logic of thecontent; thus, treating Dwayne Dantés and Klein Moretti as two completely different people. The only similarity was theirthoughts of revenge. And in this world, there weren't only two avengers.
Leonard lowered his crossed right leg unknowingly as he leaned forward.
“Vengeance?
“Who does he wish to seek revenge on?”
After asking the question, the elegant and handsome middle-aged gentleman curled the corners of his lips.
“Lanevus and...
“Ince Zangwill.”
“Ince Zangwill...” Leonard blurted out as he couldn’t help but have his expression repeatedly change. Finally, he fell silent.His green eyes looked ahead, unfocused; his thoughts a mystery.
Phew... After a long silence, Leonard exhaled and released his originally clenched hands.
He asked with his voice a little hoarse, “Lanevus was really killed by him?”
“Of course,” Klein secretly sighed as he replied calmly.
Leonard’s mouth gaped open as though he wished to say something, but he didn’t. He tightly pursed his lips.
Realizing that his goals had been met, he immediately changed topics and chuckled.
“If you have a similar goal or require help, you can also chant ‘His’ honorific name. Perhaps you will receive a response.”novelbin
“He”... That secret existence, The Fool? Leonard imagined that Dwayne Dantés was habitually proselytizing and attempting todevelop the secret organization. Therefore, he didn’t think further and replied with silence.
Klein then laughed.
“By the way, help me pass a message to Pallez Zoroast. One of our organization's members encountered Blasphemer Amon inthe Forsaken Land of the Gods.”
This piece of information contained massive amounts of information, so much that Leonard was temporarily at a loss for aresponse. His mind kept reverberating with the relevant information.
The Forsaken Land of the Gods? The Forsaken Land of the Gods that even the seven Churches are unable to find? Their secretorganization actually has members who can enter the Forsaken Land of the Gods!
Blasphemer Amon... Old Man told me that he’s hiding from a High-Sequence Beyonder with the last name Amon. He was.heavily injured by Amon and had no choice but to parasitize me...
Dwayne Dantés’s tone and attitude really is like an undying monster who lived from the Fourth Epoch. He’s also at the same or asimilar level as Old Man... In front of him, | really don’t feel any sense of superiority. | even feel like I’m lacking confidence...
As his thoughts ran through his head, Leonard forced himself to focus.“I'll pass on the message to him.”
Hmm, based on the circumstances after Leonard enters the dreams of others, it can be determined that the grandpa doesn’tcompletely control his senses. Otherwise, he would definitely have an abnormal reaction when he hears the name BlasphemerAmon... Previously, Will Auceptin’s words also corroborates this point. Only when my dear poet encounters true danger wouldthe grandpa sense it and take action... Very good. “He” isn’t a full Parasite... As Klein interpreted the unspoken information, hesmiled.
“You may leave. You can also relax. My goal isn’t the Church of Evernight.”My coming goals, not the ones of the past... Klein silently added inwardly.
Leonard had already received enough information; thus, he didn’t dare overstay his welcome. He got up and bowed.
Then, he left Dwayne Dantés’s dream.
In a room on the back streets of Saint Samuel Cathedral, Leonard woke up and heard the aged voice from the Parasite in himecho in his mind:
“What did he say?”
Leonard deliberated over his words and said, “He directly admitted to being a member of that secret organization that believes inThe Fool. Likewise for Klein Moretti whose alias is Gehrman Sparrow.
“Their goal is for vengeance, their own vengeance.”
Pallez Zoroast fell silent for a second before saying, “Did he say how Klein Moretti could be resurrected? Or how did he fake hisdeath to such an extent?”
Leonard recalled and said, “The explanation he gave was a curse from the Antigonus family’s notebook.”
Curse... At this point, Leonard discovered that Dwayne Dantés’s choice of words was rather strange.
He had described the power of resurrecting the dead as a curse!
Pallez Zoroast didn’t seem to have any questions about that. After a few seconds of silence, he said, “What else did he say?”
Leonard didn’t hide it from him and said frankly, “He mentioned Blasphemer Amon, saying that a member of their organizationmet him in the Forsaken Land of the Gods.
“Old Man, is that the Amon you mentioned?”The aged voice replied after a while, “Probably.”
He paused for a moment before saying, “I believe that Dwayne Dantés, no—The Fool that’s backing him, might be some oldfriend of mine...”
Old Man believes that he’s at a higher level than Dwayne Dantés, or even higher... He's a Grounded Angel? Leonard thoughtand asked, “Which old friend?”
Pallez Zoroast didn’t answer as he asked, “Are you going to find an opportunity to reveal the situation about Dwayne Dantés andKlein Moretti?”
Leonard suddenly fell silent and only heavily said more than ten seconds later, “Not for now.“Perhaps he and I, and them, have the chance of working together...
“And the Church didn’t suffer any material loss this time.”
The Parasite inside him didn’t say a word, as though he had fallen asleep.
Leonard slowly looked up and read the information in front of him. His eyes turned dark as he muttered, “He’s overtaken me byleaps and bounds...”
