Chapter 416: Priest

"How can I get information from inside the Augustus Family?" Klein had been replacing Qiunas Colger for three days.

In these three days, no one had noticed anything wrong with him; the disguise was perfect.

Under these circumstances, it was time for Klein to think about his mission.

The Augustus Family was considered one of the oldest Angel Families; it is said that they were granted the surname "Augustus" by the "Creator" back in the Third Epoch, and they had survived through several eras without falling.

Such a family was too terrifying; to Klein, they felt even more dangerous than the Zoroast Family, making him feel a bit cowardly.

"... I should go see George III!" Klein hesitated for a long time before making this decision.

George III was the public master of the Augustus Family, the King of Loen, and the main driving force behind this reform; perhaps a single sentence from him contained some secrets.

"Raise your head," the gentle voice said to Klein.

This was referring to the assassination of Duke Negan last time.

"Sir, please sit," George III's voice carried a certain sense of awe; Klein's heart rate accelerated, as he could roughly guess who had arrived.

"Once I have any malicious thoughts, they will be directly reflected in this domain, disrupting its balance..." Klein bowed respectfully to George III.

However, these great nobles all believed in the Storm Church, and even the Augustus Family publicly worshipped the Storm Church.

"Yes!" Klein nodded respectfully.

With the protection of the Goddess, Klein was not too worried about his safety; this was Backlund, and at the very worst, there was a great god living in the suburbs.

"Your Majesty the King!" Klein's voice was filled with respect, perhaps even bordering on fanaticism.

This priest was dressed very simply, with a gentle temperament that made people want to be close to him, and he wore a warm smile.

"Then I can rest easy," George III seemed to heave a sigh of relief.

"The so-called Angel ritual is just a cover for a deeper purpose; what could that be?"

This was the premise for all actions; otherwise, there was no need for the mission to continue.

Klein's Spirituality jumped, and a thought uncontrollably emerged in his mind.

"Your Majesty..." Klein appeared hesitant, his acting skills showing no flaws under the enhancement of his "Clown" ability.

As the largest land-owning noble and leader of the Conservative Party, Duke Negan was likely the one who least liked to see reform, and this large-scale legal reform was already eroding the fundamental interests of such great nobles.

"..." Klein looked up in fear and trepidation, seeing a priest.

"It concerns the abnormalities of Duke Negan and several other great nobles," Klein respectfully presented a document.

It wasn't until Klein caught a glimpse of a priest walking into this garden.

Klein was frightened by this thought of his own, but upon closer reflection, it wasn't impossible; he had seen a "Bound" become a god!

He had once seen the "Night Emperor" nailed to death by the "Spear of Destiny" in the depths of the Underworld, and from that historical projection, he had obtained some knowledge of the "Arbiter" Pathway.

Legal system, rules... Klein was thoughtful; George III had clearly become a "Balancer," but why did he still cling so tightly to this aspect?

The advancement ritual for Sequence 1 "Hand of Order"? Or something higher?!

104.233.243.184

Qiunas Colger's Demigod Characteristic and the "Concerto of Light and Shadow" both came from George III; this attitude was the most normal thing.

"Is there anything else?" George III glanced at him as he left, showing no strange emotions, and likewise, Klein's Spirituality did not perceive any danger.

That time, Klein had killed the assassin, but why that assassin happened to fall right next to Klein was a very subtle question.

And judging from the attitude of the "Hidden Angel," that "Spectator" did not seem to care; could this also be an Authority of "Hidden"?

"Goddess above..." Klein silently prayed for the Goddess's protection in his heart and walked toward the Loen Royal Palace with a document in hand.

"Hmm?"

"Emilius seems to have some misunderstandings about you." Klein lowered his head, looking at the King's boots; he was currently playing the role of a loyal subject reporting everything that might affect the plan to the King.

It seemed to be pacifying the hearts of Klein and George III.

Among them, the godhood ritual for Sequence 0 "Judge" had two keywords: "Strict Rules" and "Judgment"!

"As the legal reform progresses, the rules will inevitably become increasingly strict..."

"Wait," George III suddenly spoke to stop him, and Klein stood there respectfully, waiting.

Qiunas Colger was one of George III's confidants, so seeking an audience with Him was naturally not difficult; in fact, Klein had easily arrived at a royal garden and met George III.

"There is no need to pay attention to the military, and we don't need to target them; the focus is on the legal system and rules," George III thought for a moment, not caring about Emilius and the military he represented.

And George III stopped speaking, waiting quietly.

Furthermore, Klein needed to confirm one thing: that this newly ascended Angel, or even the "Spectator" who might be hiding in the Loen Royal Palace, had not truly detected his disguise.

"Pallas Nigen..." George III's expression tightened slightly, and an invisible pressure fell upon Klein; this was not directed at him, but was merely an inherent characteristic of an "Arbiter" Angel.

At the very least, this hurdle had been cleared... Klein's Spirituality relaxed a little.

Standing in front of this person was even more terrifying than standing in the "Honesty Hall."

At this moment, being able to keep a straight face was the result of his long training above the Grey Fog!

"The failure last time does not need to be dwelled upon," a gentle voice echoed in the garden.

"..." Klein firmly suppressed his wandering thoughts, not daring to relax in the slightest.

"Arrange another assassination; this time, you will watch it yourself," George III looked at Klein.

"He really has become an Angel; he is a 'Balancer'," Klein felt a certain rule; he had entered a certain domain, and every step was a form of dynamic balance.

This King had changed significantly compared to last time; Klein's Spirituality fluctuated slightly, and he could easily judge the status of this King.

"..." For a moment, Klein's expression was very strange; it seemed this Duke Negan had even given him three thousand pounds before.

"Understood!" Klein nodded heavily, bowed, and prepared to withdraw.

The most striking feature was perhaps those eyes, as clear and innocent as an infant's.

Klein met the gaze of this "Spectator."
