Edward smiled. "It's a secret.
Chapter 301 A Plan for Leonard's Better Growth
"snort."
Pales' eyes flickered, and he snorted, "Tell me, you didn't come here today just to find Leonard to resolve the misunderstanding, did you?
Edward sneered and said, "That's only one aspect. The main thing is that I want to cooperate with you on another matter."
"Cooperate with me?" Pales was surprised. "What can you cooperate with me on?"
"You are injured, aren't you?"
"good."
"Then if you can devour a Sequence 4 Thief Demigod, will it be beneficial to your recovery from your injuries?"
Pales said calmly: "Go on."
"Backlund is hiding a wounded Jacob family thief demigod. She almost parasitized my relatives a few days ago. So, I want to kill her for revenge!"
"What are you going to do?"
"I'll help you find her, and you'll take her out! Although you're injured, it shouldn't be a problem for you to deal with another lower-sequence from the same path who's more seriously injured."
Pales frowned and said, "No."
"Why?"
He asked in return: "Did that secret existence tell you about you, Amon?"
"Yes."
Pales said calmly: "Once I make a move, it might attract Amon's attention. In my current state, I will be dead if he spots me."
"I see."
Edward really hadn't expected this, but thinking back, Amon seemed to have at least one Sequence 4 clone near Backlund.
"What if you restrain the Jacob family's demigod while I try to find a way to kill her?"
"Oh, you're actually confident enough to kill a demigod?"
Pales was a little surprised, but he did not question Edward's low sequence. He said, "I can only use the suppression of the status to devour her when she turns into a time worm. ~d¢iy-i,k¨a*n~s\h~u-.+c′o+m?"
Edward lowered his head and thought for a moment, "I see. Then I may need you to find another foreign aid."
Since Pales couldn't attack directly, Edward certainly wouldn't be arrogant enough to think that he could kill a thief demigod - even though she was injured, she was still a demigod!
But...who should I ask for help?
The first thing he thought of was the vampires.
Lilith was in danger because of you vampires who captured her. So it shouldn't be too much for you to help kill that thieving demigod, right?
More importantly, Edward also wanted to take the opportunity to get in touch with the vampires, so that he could get additional help if he encountered any problems in the future.
However, these are just his wishful thinking at the moment. He will have to find out the exact situation after he meets the vampires face to face.
"OK."
Pales nodded and said, "Let's leave Leonard's matter as it is for now. When he grows up to a certain level, you can naturally resolve the misunderstanding and reunite as old friends."
"But then I'd have to explain your existence to them... Aren't you afraid that if too many people knew about it, it would cause trouble?"
"Of course I'm afraid."
Pales did not hide his fear of Amon. "But a secret is only a secret if no one knows it. From the moment you knew it, the fact that I was parasitic in Leonard's body was no longer a secret. I only have two options left. Either kill you or trust you."
"I don't know whether I should believe you or not, but I know that Leonard, that fool, will definitely choose to believe you. ~ Fantasy/姬+ ?勉_废`岳+黩`"
"…"
It is worthy of being the thief's last conscience.
Klein Dunn and Daly waited for a long time, full of confusion, before they saw Edward and Leonard coming back.
Leonard nodded slightly to the three of them and said hello, then returned to the carriage. Edward walked forward and quickly explained Leonard's situation.
Although Klein already knew about Pales' existence, he was still surprised by his request to conceal it. Dunn and Daly were even more shocked: it turned out that Leonard had been parasitized by an angel-level warrior.
At this time, Klein looked at Daly who seemed to be deep in thought and asked, "Ms. Daly, you seem to have... easily accepted the existence of that angel?"
Daly laughed: "Those big figures in the church and even the goddess accepted it, so why can't I accept it?"
"ah?"
"Have you forgotten that Leonard has either been training with the Red Gloves at the Serenity Church or hanging around St. Samuel's Church during this period? If there is really something wrong with the angel parasitic in his body, is it time for us to discover it?"
Klein suddenly realized.
Edward secretly gave Daly a thumbs up. It was easy to deal with smart people.
"Then, the plan called 'For Leonard's Better Growth' will be officially implemented."
Everyone was speechless.
Edward smiled and said, "From now on, I am a villain who betrayed the church with all my heart. You two... are the innocent people who died tragically because of my conspiracy. Ms. Daly is a widow who carries hatred and pretends to be indifferent, but in fact she is bent on revenge."
Dunn Daly: "???"
Klein scratched his cheek and said in a cold voice, "I hope Leonard will know the truth in the future and won't hate us too much."
Edward spread his hands and said, "This is not our fault. If you want to blame someone, just blame that old man. He is an angel. How can we have the courage to disobey his orders?"
Daly pursed her lips and said, "What's next? I just called him out on the pretext of taking him to the East District to investigate an extraordinary case."
"Don't worry, the old man has arranged a script, you just need to do what he says later."
"script..."
Daly's expression became strange: I really don't know what Leonard will eventually become if he continues to play like that with the angel.
More than ten minutes later.
Leonard suddenly regained consciousness and immediately shouted, "What's wrong, old man?!"
Then he saw a carriage in pieces not far away, with the coachman and Daly lying on the ground, not knowing whether they were dead or alive.
"This…what on earth is going on?"
At this time, Pales' weak voice came: "Just now... someone attacked us. If I hadn't taken over your body in time, the consequences would be..."
"Who attacked us?"
Pales sighed, "...I only know that one of them is Edward."
Leonard's pupils shrank: "Edward?!"
...
A-choo! A-choo!
Edward was sitting in the house sneezing repeatedly, and Lilith immediately jumped on his lap, "Edward, do you have a cold?"
"No."
He rubbed his nose and said, "Maybe someone is scolding me."
Lilith raised her little feet and was eager to try: "Who is it? Miss Lilith will help you curse back!"
"Well, never mind. He's already pathetic enough."
Edward shook his head. "By the way, where did Lilith and Audrey go this afternoon?"
She sat upright, wrapped her tail around her legs and said, "It's just a group of people staying in the house chatting, saying something Miss Lilith couldn't understand."
"oh?"
Will psychological alchemy work?
"Then, when we went back, there was another person who went home with Audrey, saying that... he wanted to be her teacher."
Is this the final review that the Psychological Alchemy Society is preparing to invite Audrey to join?
Klein had obtained the Book of Secrets from Sharon some time ago, and the Paper Angel should have been almost finished researching it. With the blessing of the Paper Angel, Audrey should have no safety issues joining the Psychological Alchemy Society.
"By the way, Susie has also been promoted to Sequence 7!"
Lilith pouted and looked unhappy. She always claimed that she was smarter than Susie.
"Okay, then how about I take you to perform at sea after I finish my work these few days?"
"Okay~"
When talking about the sea, Edward suddenly thought, it has been several days since I wrote to Danitz, why hasn't he replied yet? Could something have happened?
Thinking of this, he called out the messenger Phoenix.
"Good afternoon, sir."
As soon as they met, Edward found that it seemed to have changed again - it seemed to be a little smaller than last time.
"Why did you become smaller again?"
Phoenix said: "Before, I kept getting bigger because the energy in my body was out of control. Now I am slowly getting the control back."
"I see. I thought you would keep getting bigger."
It shook its head: "No, a body that is too big is not conducive to movement, but I can grow bigger when fighting!"
Edward looked at Lilith and said, "Did you hear that, Lilith? Bigger is not always better."
She pouted: "But it can get bigger at any time~"
Well.
This little guy.
"By the way, do you know why there has been no reply to the letter I sent to Huangmao last time?"
Phoenix said, "He said he would not reply until he had shown it to the captain."
Edward was stunned. "He is not on the same ship as before?"
