When the plot-skips players into the game world

Chapter 836: Chapter 215 I am the 【Star】 Chapter 836: Chapter 215 I am the 【Star】 Aiwass gazed at the scene, deep in thought.

He suddenly thought of the Lust card he had crafted to seal the soul of the Succubus.

A beautiful goddess, bare and intoxicated, lying on a lion with seven heads—this could be another interpretation of the Eternal Self and the state of the Beast Master:

Perhaps the Eternal Self had not truly tamed the Beast Master; instead, they had both indulged in uncontrolled passions.

In this chaotic state, the Eternal Self emerged as the clearer and more rational aspect.

Compared to the more traditional interpretations, this new one gained more approval from researchers of mysticism.

In other words, the current Eternal Self and the Beast Master are two sides of the same entity.

Their powers intertwined—they eternally loved and eternally battled each other.

And Aiwass remembered that the Egg Moon Manual initially belonged to one of the Eternal Self’s Codex Books.

The moon is the egg of demonic nature, from which monsters hatch.

But if so, who is the father of these monsters?

Thinking this, Aiwass entertained a possibility:

—Perhaps Selene was not an avatar of Lily’s Path of Love at all.

When Lily first read “The Spider’s Silk Continuations,” she mastered the power to manipulate lies; when she first read the “Night Rabbit Secret Continuation,” she successfully transformed herself into a primitive Werewolf.

Obviously, “The Spider’s Silk Continuations” is no common article.

It’s a power held by the “heirs of the Grey Celestial Marshal,” perfected to even steal the essence of other Paths.

Some vampire novelist could even use this power to steal the lineage and body of a Wildfire Giant.

And equivalent to this power is the “Great Sin Scholar” ability that Aiwass holds—both abilities mimic the powers of other Paths through a single avenue.

Lily mastered it with a speed akin to that of Aiwass reading Codex Books…

And so, at that time, Aiwass hadn’t realized anything was amiss.

But the problem lies in the fact that Aiwass himself is a fragment of the Celestial Marshal.

The “Nurturing Secret Sequel” is closely tied to Aiwass’s essence.

The Shepherd could have been a previous life of Aiwass, or a fragment of the Serpent Celestial Marshal.

As for the “Morning Crow Scripture,” its original owner found it incomprehensible, treating its unintended effects as if a “laser beauty instrument.”

Looking at Isabel and Sherlock…

they are undoubtedly geniuses.

In the original timeline, they were formidable entities whose abilities could synchronize with the players’ leveling.

But when they read Codex Books, their learning speed was markedly slow.

Even with Sherlock’s genius, it took him several days to understand these books—once mastered, Codex Books instantly grant all their powers.

The Codex Books themselves represent lost arts—if learning them were simple enough, they wouldn’t have been lost.

In other words, Lily’s comprehension of Codex Books has already caught up with Aiwass, a fragment of the Celestial Marshal.

—This learning speed is clearly unreasonable.

Thinking this, Aiwass considered another possibility—

Even though Lily quietly disappeared from the original history, what if only the “Lily” identity disappeared?

If that were the case, Lily could well be a reincarnation of a fragment of the Celestial Marshal.

Adaptation and Love…

No.

To put it precisely, “Lies” and “Beasts.”

These two powers are those of the “departed.” They are not mainstream forces of their respective Paths.

…Is it the Beast Master, or the Grey Celestial Marshal?

While Aiwass was pondering, Selene had almost completely devoured an entire lamb.

She regained her composure, sitting back beside Aiwass gracefully and quietly licking her fingers, her belly not even bulging—it seemed she hadn’t even been filled.

Because Selene remembered to leave a portion for Lily and Aiwass.

She left them the best quality meat, just enough to fill them.

Essentially, Selene is also Lily; she knew the appetite of both Aiwass and Lily.

And when Aiwass ate the meat, it was still warm.

…I should ask someone.

Aiwass decided to make a trip to the Ninth Ring and ask Cardinal Cyril.

The old man, being well-informed, might know how to resolve the issue of Lily’s unsuccessful self-fragmentation.

Moreover, Aiwass remembered that Cardinal Cyril possessed the “Secrets of Fenghou.” He could also inquire how long it initially took him to learn the Codex and also inform him that he had completed the mission of the Lord of Scalefeather, fully mastering the Advanced Divine Art.

Now Aiwass had established a direct connection with the Lord of Scalefeather.

The Lord of Scalefeather could descend into Aiwass’s body at any moment, and Aiwass could freely use almost all Celestial Marshal’s Divine Arts without needing to pray.

He could even request divine assistance, letting the Lord of Scalefeather fight on his behalf.

In other words, Aiwass was now a Cardinal Archbishop.

He had no real feeling towards this…

and he felt very strange about this power, it was time to consult his seniors.

And he could also ask about the progress of his clothing production.

The day after tomorrow was March 3rd, only two days left—considering elves often have severe procrastination, Aiwass felt he needed to urge them again.

So, after attending Selene’s birthday celebration, Aiwass didn’t return home, instead, he took Selene and Lily directly to the ninth Ring.

But today, the atmosphere of the ninth Ring was somewhat different.

Compared to previous visits, there were many more people on the streets.@@novelbin@@

Aiwass even saw the Papal Guards walking around the streets.

The styles of clothing on passersby also varied greatly.

Some wore soft robes and white stockings, traditional attire of elves, while others wore “modern attire” in the Star Antimony style—formal dresses and gowns of the nobility.

Some appeared like researchers, draped in simple white lab coats.

Others wore orange-yellow construction vests, heavily pocketed.

There were also some elves that Aiwass had never seen before—they wore light silver armor and held various weapons.

Although Aiwass was not yet wearing the Cardinal Archbishop’s uniform, his Archbishop standard was already enough for him to move freely.

Elves had strong memories, and many people remembered Aiwass from a few days ago.

Relying on memories, Aiwass quickly reached the depths of the ninth Ring.

After routine notification, Aiwass was invited inside.

Aiwass was startled as soon as he entered the door.

Inside the room, besides Cyril Cardinal who wore a silver Cardinal’s robe, there were seven other Cardinal Archbishops.

The atmosphere in the room looked quite serious.

Cardinal Matilda was not here, neither was the Pure White Saintess.

Aiwass did see two other “acquaintances he had never seen before”.

One of them was nearly two and a half meters tall.

He had a robust physique, brilliant blonde hair, and deep blue eyes, giving off a somewhat dopey impression like a Great Guardian.

He was dressed in exquisite Elf Silver Armor—most notably, his armor which was hollowed out at the back revealing a crown tattoo.

Part of it was blue, and part of it was yellow.

Aiwass recognized at a glance that this was the Elf Paladin “Topaz” he had seen at the promotion ceremony!

So he was also a Cardinal Archbishop!

But why wasn’t he wearing a bishop’s robe?

The other person was a woman in a dark green robe.

She had long straight black hair with curved dragon horns on her head.

Her demeanor seemed quite somber as her hair covered one eye.

The only visible eye carried a scar, marring her beauty.

This was Helquinn’s wife, Favna!

Upon seeing Aiwass, “Topaz” and Favna noticeably paused.

“…Star?”

“You are… Star?”

Both voices almost erupted simultaneously.

But unlike what Aiwass had expected.

They didn’t shout out Aiwass’s name, but rather the “one-time stage name” he had recently adopted.

However, Aiwass did not hesitate.

He boldly placed his hand on his chest.

Actively touching the emerald mark on his chest.

In an instant, the aura of Lord of Scalefeather seeped out from Aiwass.

Other Cardinal Archbishops who could recognize Advanced Divine Art, suddenly changed their expressions.

“Yes, I am ‘Star’.”

Facing the gaze of eight Cardinal Archbishops, Aiwass nodded and admitted: “The proxy of Lord of Scalefeather… Aiwass Moriarty.

– The newly appointed Cardinal Archbishop.”
