Mystery: Paradox Path

"It really surprised me. I thought you would escape while I was having a party." After the party, Snow didn't rush back home to pray to Mr. Fool, but went to the second floor of the room. He reached out and turned off the gramophone that had been playing Katyusha on a loop.

"Do you think I'm capable of escaping like this?" Lanvus was leaning against the sofa. Although he didn't have any restraints, he could see that his body had been in a rigid state before.

For Lanervus, who is constantly fighting for body control with Zhenzao's consciousness, Katyusha, who can make Zhenzao's emotions run high, is the best restraint for him.

only……

"Oh, that's really a pity." Snow chuckled and shook his head. After waving his hand casually, he walked towards the door.

Lan Erwusi's eyes became gloomy, and he began to wonder if Snow had seen something again.

"No, he's probably just bluffing, he's implanted in me the impression that 'he knows everything and likes to be silent at the beginning of his plan, and then break everything when he thinks it's successful and appreciate the prey's despair', which is In order to make me suspicious as long as he shows a meaningful expression, yes, he must be deceiving me! He can't find out!"

Lan Erwus turned his brain as much as possible to calm himself down. Fortunately, although the current real creator is constantly replacing him, the two do not share thinking, and he is not worried that this "little real creator" will Actively expose his plans.

...

On the other hand, Forsi, who returned home, threw herself on the bed as usual, while listening to Xio describe the conditions that the man in the golden mask gave her, while slowly letting go of drowsiness.

Xio has long been used to her friend's style. After Fors closed her eyes, she lightly left the bedroom, but it didn't take long for Fors on the bed to be like a scene in a horror movie, "Shuh" He opened his eyes suddenly, stepped on the floor with bare feet, and moved towards the door with a little tiptoe.

...

In the study, Xio had sealed the room with spirituality, lit three candles, and began to prepare herbs and essential oils.

Although she, the arbiter, is not good at rituals, Fors has some knowledge of ritual magic, which makes the two of them have no shortage of such materials in their homes.

However, when she used a silver dagger to create a spiritual wall and closed the study, a door of light suddenly opened on the wall behind her:

"Hugh, what are you doing?"

"Ah!" Xio was taken aback by Forsi's sudden appearance.

She almost knocked over the candle in front of her, she turned her head abruptly, and looked at Forsi with some dodging eyes, she didn't know how to explain it for a while.

Forsi sniffed the smell in the room and confirmed that Xio hadn't started burning the powder and adding essential oils, and then stepped forward to blow out the candle and said solemnly:

"You want to pray to that existence, right?"

"Anyway, I've already been watched, so let's help you explore the way first." Xio said with a neck, but Forsi shook his head and said:

"What can you do with your pathfinder? Now you're just being watched, what if a connection is really established? There is a price to be paid to pray to a great being!"

"But I also want to ask about my father..." Xio still maintained her stubborn appearance and found her own all-purpose excuse, but Fors sighed:

"Aren't the two things the same? Your father's affairs are the inside story of the world, how could a great being know, unless he or his followers are participants in this matter, but if they are participants, how can they tell You? And the full moon raving is a matter of mysticism, and that existence can cut off the connection if you don’t know it.”

Seeing that Xio was still hesitating, Fors rarely became arrogant:

"You stay with me tonight, and you are not allowed to go anywhere. Tomorrow night, I will ask for protection from that great existence, that's the decision!"

...

Early in the morning, after the routine morning service for The Fool, Snow came to the Brave Bar and looked at Caspas who seemed to be playing pool all day long. Snow said nothing without any nonsense:

"I have something to ask for the person behind you, help me introduce it."

"Are you sure? That guy is the most powerful Beyonder I've ever seen. He's not even afraid of bullets!" Caspers said worriedly, but Snow showed a bright smile and said:

"Don't worry, I won't do anything I'm not sure about, and I'm not here to find fault, just tell him what he can't refuse in my hands."

"It sounds like you know him... Forget it, I don't want to be involved in the affairs of your Beyonders." Caspers rubbed his big red nose and limped out of the pool room.

About ten minutes later, he returned to Snow again and said solemnly:

"He agreed to meet you, but I want to remind you that he doesn't seem to be in a good mood."

"It's not a problem, trust me, his mood will get better soon." Snow raised the corners of his mouth confidently and followed Caspers to a chess and card room. Caspers used his rude appearance. The inconsistent movements knocked on the door lightly, and the two walked in only after being allowed to.

There were a lot of people playing cards in the room, but each of them lacked the feeling of being "alive". Snow did not turn on his spiritual vision, but gave Caspers a look, indicating that he could go out.

Caspars glanced at Snow with a worried look, but turned and left the room. It wasn't until the door was closed that the man in the white shirt and black vest stood up.

His eyes seemed to be filled with strong malice, and a group of living corpses set the atmosphere for him, but Snow seemed to be completely unaffected.

It seems to be somewhat unexpected Snow's attitude, but the other party did not restrain his maliciousness. Instead, after he was ready to attack at any time, he asked in a low voice:

"You want to meet me?"

"Don't be nervous, I'm just a businessman, and I think you guys will need my goods very much." Snow's smile was still bright, but [everyone thought he could see through] put on a coat of great affinity for him. .

Although this affinity is not enough to eliminate the hostility, it can at least ensure that most normal-minded Beyonders will not regard him as a provocation.

"What are you going to sell?" The man looked at Snow vigilantly. He suspected that this person had already learned his true identity, and the other party's next words also confirmed his thoughts——

"A spell that makes the prisoner's pathway unaffected by the full moon."

"Whoa!"

All the living corpses in the room stood up almost at the same time, and the man's body exuded a chill that was enough to freeze the ground. He stared at Snow with those eyes that seemed to contain infinite malice, and said coldly:

"What's your purpose?"
