When the plot-skips players into the game world

Chapter 862: Chapter 238 Aiwass: Donning the Yellow Robe?_2 Chapter 862: Chapter 238 Aiwass: Donning the Yellow Robe?_2 The angel’s appearance bore a half-resemblance to his own.

And aside from the long pure white hair and a softer, more feminine facial features, it looked almost exactly like Aiwass when he was seventeen or eighteen!

“Is this Loki’s conspiracy?”

The young man muttered to himself, “It doesn’t quite seem his style, a bit too rough…

Could it be that Moriarty guy?”

[Moriarty?]

A voice laden with mechanical echoes and reverberation came from the angel behind the young man.

It posed a question, yet its lips did not move.

“Yeah, it’s indeed possible.”

The young man nodded, speaking as if he were conversing with himself yet also seemingly explaining to the angel behind him: “Moriarty’s plans are usually just like this—he doesn’t compel or deceive someone into action.@@novelbin@@

He merely places the right person in the right place…

He tells those people what they truly desire to do at the bottom of their hearts, and then he gives them the strength to do it.

“Everyone acts out of their own interest, yet when combined, it always benefits him.

That’s why I admire him—he’s different from his teacher, Loki.

Moriarty knows very well which plans have the lowest chance of failure.”

[What plan?]

The angel continued to inquire.

It had an intense curiosity about everything in the world, akin to a child inexperienced in worldly affairs.

“Heh.”

The young man with golden hair chuckled: “Naturally, it’s a plan that’s good for everyone.”

While speaking, the young man lifted his hand.

A cane materialized in his hand, following the twisted gleam of light.

He gripped the cane and then pointed it downwards.

Dark golden ripples spread slowly from the “control room” like water waves.

Unaware of the young man’s presence and the occurrence of these ripples were the elves walking outside and the Papal Guards stationed by the door.

The ripples continued to spread outward until they suddenly halted upon contacting something.

“Found it.”

The young man suddenly spoke.

At that moment, the magic mirrors reflecting various faces in the room abruptly adjusted their angles, all focusing on one person.

All screens displayed full surveillance from every direction.

—It was indeed the Vampire Writer imprisoned!

“Let’s go, [Aiwass].”

The young man spoke softly, commanding, “Let’s go meet him…

He should be Loki’s last remaining piece in the Material Realm by now.

He’s half in the Material Realm and half in the Dream Realm.

A tough opponent, whether he advances or retreats, but as long as he remains stuck here, he can’t do anything.”

[Should we kill him, Jacob?]

“Definitely not.

Killing him would be granting him release.

If we completely send Loki into the Dream Realm, once he recuperates under The Candle Holder, he might become an Angel Envoy.

Then, if we were to speak with him, we’d inherently be one rank lower.

Keeping him in the Material Realm, on the other hand, can be most effective.

“The Holy Nation secretly imprisoned him without killing or releasing him, probably with the same intention.

Though they aren’t even aware what Cardinal Loki was truly fearing…”

[Grey Celestial Marshal, is he?

He actually wants to die, and the Holy Nation doesn’t know?]

“That’s correct, you guessed right.

Quite clever, [Aiwass].”

Jacob, leaning on his cane, casually praised: “You’re becoming more and more perceptive of human hearts.”

He adjusted the knot of his tie with his other hand and laughed softly, “Let’s first send a message to Lord Loki…’The assassination attempt on The Holy Maiden,’ an unexpected event.”

Meanwhile, the elves also quickly pieced together the “truth.”

Last month, there had already been rumors within the Holy Nation.

It was said that the fanatics from the Controlled Flame sect had acquired a special poison that could put normal elves in an Amberficate state and rapidly worsen the condition of those already undergoing Amberfication.

The rumor caused a stir, inducing a considerable panic within the Holy Nation.

Reports about being poisoned by the Controlled Flame crazies emerged everywhere, and several accidental deaths among the Amberficators were deemed strongly related to the matter.

But following the death of Cardinal Loki, the Controlled Flame lost its leader and hence fell silent.

The matter gradually faded from public attention.

No matter how radical the Controlled Flame’s ideology or how dangerous their agitation, they were a group with clear demands—they were fundamentally a radical Elf faction wanting to promote Cardinal Loki for the papacy.

Their further objective was to implement professional progression from top to bottom within the Holy Nation so that these lower-class elves and Half-Elves could close the gap in status with the long-standing “Heirs.”

In the end, their purpose was political; and their political goals were ultimately for their own benefit.

But with the death of Cardinal Loki, they were doomed to never fulfill their prior objective.

This organization was initially composed of Cardinal Loki’s zealous followers, and they could not elect the next leader before March 3rd or promote him to Cardinal Archbishop.

Of course, Cardinal Loki wouldn’t have prepared a “just in case I’m gone” contingency plan—it was only with no other choice that Controlled Flame would willingly Dedicate themselves.

But now, the reality was laid bare before everyone—

None of the Elf Cardinals dared drink that wine.

And no matter what motivated The Holy Maiden to take a sip, there could only be one truth.
