Pastor's Tantra

Looking at the suddenly quiet Count Leipzig, Adolf paused his staff and repaired the window again.

"... Is it too much of a stretch to use the magic of Winter Si with earth attribute mana?"

Adolf frowned slightly.

It took so long to freeze... If it was petrification, Count Leipzig would have turned into stone in an instant.

The old man gave the order: "Move it away, move it upstairs."

Accompanying his command, many undead appeared behind him, they responded with laughter, and played carefreely in a place where the old man could not see.

At this time, the old man in black robe suddenly looked at a corner.

There, Aleister, who was riding a ghost Pegasus and had obviously pale skin, gradually emerged.

She was using Bayard's body at the moment - she had to pay for the vitality of Lily and Selene, and compared to Aleister himself, Bayard's body was an adult and had much more vigorous blood in his body.

Aleister suddenly exhaled a breath of white air, looked at the ice sculpture surrounded by the undead, and asked curiously: "Who is that?"

"The Count of Leipzig should be quite famous. But don't worry about it."

Adolf answered casually, frowning and looking at Aleister who looked like Bayard.

He pushed his glasses and stared at him for a long time before half-guessing and half-recognizing: "Aleister?"

"It's me."

Aleister smiled and said: "Why can't you recognize me after I changed my appearance?"

"...It's still a bit similar, but they are all flesh and blood of the soul."

Adolf relaxed and said stubbornly: "At least they all have black hair and green eyes. And they are all children of the moon..."

"It sounds like you have some face blindness."

"Oh, how is it possible? I also have a professional level in the way of beauty. My sketches were highly praised in the Xingtan art world back then..."

Old Adolf seemed quite proud when he mentioned this.

"Xingtan also has an art world?" Aleister was a little surprised.

This is not to be sarcastic, but she really hasn't heard of many artists in Xingtan - the artists in the neighboring Iris Kingdom are indeed very famous.

"Actually, there are quite a few. It's just that Xingtan's artists are usually in the Spirit Tower."

Adolf chuckled: "Either a mentor, or a student... or a corpse, or a ghost."

The two looked at each other quietly for a while, and Aleister realized that Vice Principal Adolf seemed to want to tell a cold joke.

Adolf coughed lightly and looked at Lily and Selene: "These two... must be what you said..."

"-Gray Tiansi's rebirth container."

Aleister became serious: "Please lead the way."

"Don't worry," Adolf nodded, holding up the staff and leading Aleister on horseback to the elevator, "The teacher is already preparing the ceremony. When you left, the teacher believed that you would definitely be able to bring back the King of the Wild Hunt. And when you came just now, the ceremony had already been preheated and started."

As he said, he glanced at the ghost Pegasus under Aleister, a little late He was a little suspicious and curious: "Is this... the King of the Wild Hunt?"

"Yes, my name is Heleqin."

The ghost Pegasus under Aleister suddenly spoke in human language: "But this is just a posture I use to hide my power."

"... Heleqin!"

Adolf's tone was a little higher: "I have heard of your name, an elf hero!"

"Ah... um."

Heleqin seemed to have something to say, but finally swallowed them back, nodded his horse head and responded silently: "But now, I am just... the master's servant."

"... Master?"

Adolf looked at Aleister in astonishment.

Let a sixth-level King of the Wild Hunt recognize him as the master?

The King of the Wild Hunt is a heroic soul who has signed a contract with Wei Zhe. There is no contract in this world that can force mortals to restrain the King of the Wild Hunt!

In other words, this can only be a master-servant relationship that Heleqin voluntarily reached...

"It's amazing. Miss Aleister actually has such great power... and I haven't seen what the King of the Wild Hunt looks like."

Adolf said with half regret and half expectation: "I hope I can have a chance to see it later."

And Aleister finally realized that the old man was in a good mood: "This is the first time I have seen a transcendent of the Twilight Path, so clearly showing excitement and curiosity... Is it because Heleqin is a sixth-level undead? I heard that you are cultivating sixth-level undead."

"No, these are two different things. I am because of the Wild Hunt - I am very interested in the Wild Hunt."

Adolf's voice rose slightly again: "That was a night that changed my life. It can even be said that it was the starting point for me to embark on the path of the dead..."

As he spoke, the old man fell into memories of the past.

The extraordinary people of the Dusk Path always like to recall the past. For them, the past is much clearer than the present:

"There are relatively few priests in our Star Antimony, so there are more undead in the wild. My father died early, and when I was a teenager, I managed the family factory and ran business outside.

"Once, in order to catch up with an order... I chose to force the departure at dusk. At a normal speed, when it was completely dark, it should be enough for me to reach the edge of the next city. As a result, who would have thought that we were attacked by monsters in the wild... Although there were no casualties, the car broke down.

"The coachman and the guard warned me that if I stayed at night, I would be attacked by the undead, and asked me to abandon the car and flee with them. But for me, the printing slates in that car were already overdue... I bought them with a loan from the Goblin Bank. If they were lost or damaged, I would have to pay a large amount of liquidated damages. By then... my brothers and sisters and I would not be able to go to school.

"In Xingtan, going to school is almost the only way for civilians to change their fate. I was hot-headed at the time... Although it seems impulsive and stupid now, I didn't consider how my mother and brothers and sisters at home would live if I left. But I still resolutely chose to live and die with this car of goods.

"As a second-level 'painter' at the time, I had a brush and a plate for rubbing in my hand, and I was confident that I could deal with the weaker undead. As a result..."

"...and encountered a sea of ​​undead?"

Aleister guessed how things would develop.

Many city dwellers don't know that the undead in the wild often move in groups at night. There are not many undead wandering in the fields near the city, in fact, it is because the candlelight of the church can disperse the undead. Even if there is no bishop in the blank church, their existence itself will sanctify the land, thus expelling the undead to a certain extent.

—— On the other hand, since the undead are unwilling to approach the city with the church before they form a certain scale, where are they?

Of course, they are all expelled to the wilderness where the light of the city cannot be seen.

"... I originally thought that there would be at most three or four undead who would attack me. As a result, the number is more than ten times more than I expected... Just the chill when they appeared made me tremble constantly, and my fingers could not paint steadily at all."

Adolf sighed: "I really thought I was going to die here. Before I died, I suddenly realized that if I died here... How would my mother, my brothers and sisters live? They are not extraordinary people, and they have not inherited my father's connections...

"- Just then, I saw the Wild Hunt. They broke through the clouds under the leadership of the King of the Wild Hunt, chopped down those undead, and saved me.

"I was shivering from the cold and even had hallucinations. Because of fear or cold, I didn't open the door of the carriage... so I didn't see the appearance of the King of the Wild Hunt. Since then, I have no time to pursue the Wild Hunt. It was also from then on that I realized that the undead are not scary."

"The King of the Wild Hunt of Xingtan..."

Aleister recalled: "I remember he should be carrying the plague aura. He seems to be a knight who died in the Rift War and was poisoned by an alchemist... He should be a noble of the Herasser Empire."

"... So it was the plague aura? I was wondering why I I got a serious illness when I got back. I thought it was because of the undead..."

"Have you never looked for it again since then?"

"Busy. And it's not easy to find."

Adolf sighed: "The King of the Wild Hunt decides who to save and who to kill based on his mood and luck. Even if I reach the fifth energy level, I don't have the confidence to survive the killing intention of the King of the Wild Hunt. Now I'm almost... I originally planned to find the King of the Wild Hunt who saved me after I handed over everything. It doesn't matter even if I die in his hands.

"That's probably my last chance to see the King of the Wild Hunt."

"No wonder you are so interested in the King of the Wild Hunt."

Aleister smiled and said, "Then you will see it in a while."

As they talked and laughed, the elevator had already risen to the top floor.

But there was still no one here. The lich was still preparing for the ceremony and did not come to greet the few people.

"Oh, by the way. There is one more thing..."

Adolf suddenly remembered: "Count Leipzig seems to be looking for you. He said you are Red Prime Minister's lover... Is that true?"

He is like every adaptor of the Dusk Path, remembering things that happened a long time ago clearly, but forgetting things that happened recently.

"Huh?"

Aleister was stunned for a moment, and then a surge of anger of being violated suddenly surged in his heart: "I have never seen them father and son!"

Who are you? Are you worthy?

She felt her aggressiveness rise immediately - Aleister felt the disgust of being targeted by a pervert as a woman, and the disgust of being targeted by a pervert as a man. The most terrifying thing is that Red Prime Minister Pomponazzi is very likely to be both of them.

"I think so, so I helped you turn it down."

Adolf lightly regarded the matter of "freezing the Count of Leipzig" as "helping you turn it down", but he also cautiously added: "But the Count mentioned... Red Prime Minister Pomponazzi may come to the Psychic Tower later. Unlike the Count of Leipzig, he is a real big shot. He is not much weaker than the principal. "

"... In this heavy snow?"

Although Aleister frowned at the snowstorm caused by Dong Dong Si, she knew that the snowstorm weakened the Moon Child much more than the ordinary people.

For ordinary people, this is just a heavy snow that can block the sound. But for the Moon Child, this is an extremely unfavorable venue - its essence is not much different from the Winter Demon.

"Do you want me to help you stop it?"

Adolf said considerately.

"... No need. When he comes, I will talk to him in person."

Aleister narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice.

Adolf is definitely not a match for the Red Phase Pomponazzi - the first generation of Red and Black Phases, both of them have reached at least the sixth energy level to fight against the descending Celestials. It's just that they lack a crucial level, which makes them suppressed by the Celestials.

But even so, the Fallen Celestials have never troubled them. If Adolf were to stop this level of power, it might cause the old man to encounter an accident... Even in this snowy day, Pomponazzi's power is still unfathomable.

And by then, Aleister's King of the Wild Hunt will be used as a container to carry the consciousness of the Gray Celestials. In other words, Aleister will not be able to switch to the Sin Beast he is fighting...

When the operation is over... they will have a sixth energy level King of the Wild Hunt out of thin air.

Rather than a head-on conflict, it is better to let Aleister talk to delay time. If Aleister is not mistaken, the "acquaintance" Pomponazzi mentioned should refer to the Shadow Demon Bayard - he recognized the wrong person.

It just so happens that he is an old man from before the disintegration of the empire.

Aleister just happened to have a question about Bayard.

Aiwass had asked the guardian elf Diomedes during the promotion ceremony.

He said that before the disintegration of the empire, the first Moriarty made a deal with the Bayard family of the empire.

The specific content of the deal is unknown... but the curse of the Moriarty family was signed by the Bayard family.

The shadow demon himself did not know about this, but the red phase Pomponazzi might know more details.

At this time, the lich Grunewald finally emerged.

"The ceremony is ready."

His hollow and empty voice echoed: "Please follow me."

"Ah, teacher..."

Adolf saw the first generation of black phase emerging from the void, and walked over to tell him that he had frozen Count Leipzig and that Pomponazzi might come soon.

"It doesn't matter."

Grunewald said calmly: "Let him come. Don't be afraid, child.

"- This is my territory. "
