Chapter 336: Illusory Blood: Son of the Moon

Aiwass didn't hesitate at all.

Being able to obtain a golden entry that only exists in theory during the promotion ceremony from level 2 to level 3—

If he missed this opportunity, not only would Twin Mirror be unhappy, he himself would not forgive himself.

After he confirmed his choice with his consciousness, he felt his body slowly floating up.

Aiwass's spirit rose further upward, hanging high in the air.

The next moment, a beautiful eye slowly opened and lit up in the empty sky.

The color in those eyes was indescribable, and beyond Aiwass's comprehension. It seemed like the color of a rainbow, yet also like some other unique color—countless lights streamed from them, illuminating the entire world.

It was at this moment that Aiwass realized that there was another self floating beside him.

There was a mirror placed between the two selves, turning the eye in the air into a pair.

There was a shadow cast from beneath Aiwass, but there was no shadow cast from beneath the Aiwass in the mirror.

In the shadows beneath Aiwass, the Shadow Demon, who had lost consciousness due to the suspension of time, was pulled out and transformed into Bayard, floating behind Aiwass.

Like a snowy screen on a TV, the mirror flickered blurrily for a few times, and another "Bayard" appeared behind the floating Aiwass.

But there was no black smoke coming out of that Bayard's body - instead, he had a pair of scarlet pupils.

That was not the Shadow Demon, but Bayard, the Son of the Moon.

The next moment, the "Bayards" behind the two Aiwasses dissipated simultaneously. Suddenly, as if drawn by some kind of gravitational force, Aiwasses suddenly crashed into the mirror in the middle!

When the two Aiwasses in the mirror and outside the mirror suddenly collided, Aiwass suddenly opened his eyes and woke up from the bed instantly.

Aiwass's system panel also popped up automatically, and the changed parts were updated:

Demonologist LV20: [Demon Contract - Level 6 (0%)], [Demonology - Level 4 (80%)], [Basic Ritual - Level 4 (39%)], [Curse - Level 3 (56%)], [Shepherding (Essence) - Level 3 (0%)]

Mana Pool: 52/52 (Light), 44/44 (Dark), 55/55 (Fire)

Road characteristics——

The path has been illuminated: Dedication-3rd level, Transcendence-3rd level

Transcendence/Beauty - Illusory Blood (Moonchild): You can now ritually switch your race between human and moonchild, gaining the same racial traits and abilities as the "Moonchild" when you switch to moonchild. This acts as a disguise that cannot be penetrated by spells, but the illusion shatters upon severe injury or blunt force impact, like a mirror. There is no cooldown on actively ending this effect, but if the illusion is shattered by external forces, you cannot use this ability again until the next new/full moon.

——I’m awesome, I don’t lack blue anymore!!

This was Aiwass's first reaction after seeing his panel clearly.

Now that his three attributes are evenly distributed, he can directly make phantom cards with wind and earth attributes.

Not to mention the Demon of Punishment, even the King of the Wild Hunt can be sealed!

...The only problem is that the cards can be made, but people may not be able to beat them.

The King of the Wild Hunt, currently the world's strongest phantom demon, was only half a power level weaker than the Fallen Angels, who were later pulled down by the Tail Ring. If Aiwass could subdue the King of the Wild Hunt, he would have the confidence to challenge the Fallen Angels.

And even if it is successfully sealed, it may not be easy to use for the time being.

Because Aiwass's original form still does not have an earth-attribute mana pool, even if Aiwass seals the King of the Wild Hunt, he must switch forms to use it - but his disguised form cannot participate in combat, otherwise it will easily break.

In addition, only one phantom demon can appear at a time.

The Moonchild form has no fire attribute mana, which means that Aiwass cannot use shepherding, lighting, fire sacrifice, or summon small butterflies.

However, after obtaining this entry, Aiwass no longer had to bear the experience penalty and risk of deflection to multi-class the third path. It was quite simple to just gain a few mana.

The higher-level divine arts of the Church can obtain some permanent temporary mana through blessings, and high-level alchemists may also be able to create some rare potions that increase the mana pool limit. Occasionally, some purple equipment that increases the mana limit can be dug out in the ruins.

Anyway, Aiwass didn't want the thirty or forty points needed for card making, but just a few mana points to activate the card. It couldn't even reach five points - this wasn't difficult.

Not to mention far away, there must be some equipment that increases wind-attribute mana in the black market of Avalon - the staffs used by the law mages in the Supervisory Bureau who are responsible for tracing the scene have this effect.

Now that he is a minister, it is not a problem for Aiwas to ask the royal craftsmen to customize an extraordinary token with the same effect.

But not being able to defeat the King of the Wild Hunt is a small problem.

Currently, Aiwass was the only Scholar of Sin in the world. Since the Wild Hunt King wasn't going anywhere, and the Fallen Angels hadn't arrived yet, Aiwass could rest easy and wait until he was absolutely sure of his capture before striking. This would prevent him from angering the enemy if he failed.

Now both of Aiwas's professions have entered the third energy level plateau.

He was going to look for materials for his job change next, so the pace of the promotion ceremony could be slowed down. Furthermore, while he was here, his Path Power was balanced, allowing him to focus on cultivating his phantom demon using pastoral care.

When school resumes, Aiwass will be going to the Church to study abroad. The "Illuminator" class hasn't appeared yet, so Aiwass may have to go to the Church to find clues for a job change.

Before that, he could focus on solving Avalon's problems.

Currently, the third level of the Dual Path is just enough to fish without worrying about being unable to catch fish—it won't scare people into playing dead and keeping silent, nor will it be so weak that it will fight the fish. If your strength is not enough, you can find a way to raise the Shadow Demon level.

"—Judging from your reaction, I think you were promoted successfully, right?"

Little Sherlock's cold voice sounded from the side: "You laugh so disgustingly."

"Indeed...where are the others?"

Aiwass smiled and reached out to touch his head, but Sherlock impatiently opened his hand.

"I'm awake too, Master."

Lily opened her eyes from the side.

Without waiting for Aiwass to ask, she answered directly: "This time, I have two purple and one blue entries. After careful consideration, I chose a purple entry called [Shadow Incarnation]. Because you mentioned that you have this entry before, I feel like it seems better than the other one..."

"Huh?"

Aiwass was stunned for a moment, and then he was a little surprised: "That's really good!"

Hearing this familiar term, he knew that Lily's promotion ceremony points should be quite a lot this time.

While replenishing Shadow Affinity and further improving Shadow Fiend's combat power, it also replenished Lily's mana pool. As she had never selected the Vessel attribute before, the sudden increase of 14 mana points was very obvious.

Starting from level 3 to level 4, you'll basically no longer encounter blue attributes. However, it's not impossible to obtain container attributes from composite attributes. In that case, Shadow Avatar can be directly divided into two levels of Shadow Affinity, thus directly raising the level of Shadow Affinity to the maximum.

Lily can also directly convert it into a two-level container entry - that is, 42 more mana points.

After all, Lily is not just an assassin now, she also has the profession of witch. Witches can also use dark attribute mana to cast spells, but the mana of the caster is never enough.

As for what Lily's other purple was, Aiwass simply didn't ask. This was good enough.

It's like a final exam - don't check your answers after you take the exam.

Anyway, you can't rush back, knock the invigilator unconscious and change the answers again.

Especially since the invigilator is one of the Nine Pillars Gods.

It is different from ordinary promotion ceremonies - ordinary ceremonies are only watched by the apostles, but this time the nine pillars of gods are present in person!

"Haina hasn't woken up yet?"

Aiwas glanced at Haina and lowered his voice.

Haina's face showed pain, as if she had a nightmare, sweating profusely, and she was still struggling.

Sherlock shook his head. "It's only been less than two hours... She's going from level three to level four, so it should be difficult."

"Then I hope she can pass the customs smoothly."

Aiwass sighed and gave his blessing seriously.

"And you?"

Sherlock asked bluntly, "Look at how happy you are. You must have gained more than Miss Lily. Can you show me? If not, forget it. Just pretend I didn't ask."

"I say, you asked that yourself."

Ai Hua was instantly amused and blurted out the words he had been holding back for a long time without hesitation: "How did you know I got the golden entry?"

"--ha?"

Sherlock was stunned for a moment.
