Chapter 750: Echoes of Jealousy (Seeking monthly tickets!)

"Yes, my lord. It is ready."

The Mirror Demon respectfully presented the contract in front of Aleister.

To prevent fraud, it wasn't a paper contract, but a burning flame. While some clever demons liked to use this method to deceive people, the Mirror Demon would never dare to deceive Aleister. It wasn't that it couldn't do it, but that it didn't dare.

After all, the other party wasn't a good person. In other words, they could show up at any moment, fuming with rage. In that case, it was better to be cautious.

Aleister glanced at the contract and found that there was indeed no problem with it.

Rather than saying it's a fairly fair contract...it's better to say it's a rather empty and loose contract.

The contract stipulated only one thing: any betrayal or attack must be preceded by a declaration of war at least seventy-two hours in advance. Before the relationship breaks down, both parties must provide as much mutual assistance as possible, but only to the extent that it does not affect them, and only at their own discretion. Furthermore, both parties must exchange identities, ensuring they know each other's real names and refrain from using each other's intelligence to harm the other.

Given the clause of "mutual assistance", the contract also includes the function of requesting temporary summons from the other party.

Overall, it's a pretty defensive contract...

"Oh, are you so afraid of me?"

Aleister glanced at the one-page contract and signed his name at the end of it.

When she signed her name, it flashed with a golden light, and then directly revealed Aiwass's former name - the name he had used before being adopted by Old James.

"…Evans Moriarty. Formerly known as Edwards Alexander…"

The Mirror Demon's deep voice gradually rose in disbelief. "Wait... Wait... this name—?!"

Isn't this the new Eternal Pope that Earl Dawn has been grumbling about for so long?!

He brought immense trouble to the Star, but his kindness also gave it a chance to breathe. He was considered an enemy by many Stars, yet also a savior by many. Although he never reached the Star, he sparked discussion and controversy everywhere...

Shouldn't he have succeeded the Pope and then fallen into an endless sleep?!

This woman - no, who is this female Moon Child!

The Mirror Demon couldn't help but shiver.

It was originally just worried that the other party would be promoted to a great demon after death, but now it began to worry that the other party would become an apostle or even a celestial minister after death...

"Now that you know my real name, and I know yours, I think you won't run away."

Aleister said with a smile: "You should know that those who follow the path of dedication are not bad people."

"...Indeed, but...?"

The Mirror Demon felt like it was about to crash.

It was obvious that it knew very little about the higher-ranking devotees. It was completely unaware that while the higher-ranking devotees on the path of devotion were less bad, there were still many crazy people crawling around.

"Well, the sun is rising..."

Aleister squinted his eyes and looked at the rising sun outside the window.

Because she hadn't "slept" to immerse herself in the Dream Realm River and slowly replenish her mana, her mana hadn't recovered. However, as the sun rose, her once-a-day abilities regained their usability.

The only regret is probably that I can't contact Isabel.

Aleister is not a priest nowadays.

She couldn't use the fire sacrifice technique, nor could she gain mana by praying to the candle master...but as the child of the moon, she also had her own way to restore her mana.

Aleister turned and walked towards Selene's room.

About ten minutes later, she came back with a blush on her cheeks.

As Aleister savored the strange yet fascinating taste in his mouth...

"—This is mouthwash, my lord."

Suddenly, there was a water cup at her hand.

The Mirror Demon's voice then rang out, "What kind of breakfast would you like? Or did you already have breakfast just now?"

"Why, after knowing the master's identity, you start to regret it?"

The Night Demon, perched on the coat rack like a decoration, finally couldn't help himself. "Such attentive flattery... do you think the master will be fooled by you? Besides, are you qualified to make breakfast?"

As the Mirror Demon became more attentive and caring, the Night Demon felt more and more uneasy.

Although she reached the sixth energy level by sucking the blood of the shepherd of Aiwass and helped Aiwass defeat many powerful enemies...but because of this, she could not manifest her true form as freely as a little butterfly, but had to accompany Aiwass in this stupid traveling posture.

This also leads to a problem.

She clearly possessed all of the Mirror Demon's abilities. But she simply couldn't summon them at will like the Mirror Demon...

Moreover, the Night Demon knew that this broken mirror was definitely not innocent - it knew this, so it deliberately jumped in front of it like this!

Mirror Fiends are demons of the same rank as Shadow Fiends. To become a Mirror Fiend means one's soul is branded with the mark of jealousy.

Just like the Shadow Fiend is a demon transformed from the angry souls of those who fell from high places or were betrayed...

Mirror demons come from evil spirits with strong desires for voyeurism and control.

If someone wishes to know another's secrets, control their freedom, and manipulate their destiny, and does something truly terrible as a result... such as taking another's life without repentance, their soul will degenerate into a Mirror Demon.

Those fanatical followers who want to monopolize their idols, or couples and parents who have an extremely strong desire to control their partners or children, or tabloid reporters who will do anything to get what they want, or evil servants who try to control their young masters according to their own will...

When they degenerate into mirror demons, they lose their "hands" and are left with only their "eyes." Without a physical body, no matter how much they see, they can't reach out and do anything. Their unsatisfied desires become more extreme, causing their souls to degenerate further.

Allowing someone who used to be like this to get close to Aiwass... and Aleister would only make Night Demon feel extremely uneasy.

She wished she could smash the mirror with one claw!

I wish I could bite it to death! Bite it to death!

"Don't worry, Vines..."

After rinsing his mouth, Aleister hugged the little crow and whispered comfortingly: "It was you who followed me from the beginning, wasn't it you?"

He comforted the little crow for a long time before the little crow's jealousy was slightly relieved.

Two holders of the Jealousy Mark came together, and it felt like their mutual jealousy could just keep bouncing off each other indefinitely...

Speaking of which, if two holders of the Wrath Mark stayed together, wouldn't their stomachs get swollen with anger?

...Is this the way to fall?

Although "degeneration" itself is one-way, the contact and reaction between different degenerates will also produce new "changes"...

Aleister vaguely felt that he had some understanding of the Fallen Angels' philosophy.

She shook her head to dispel her wild thoughts.

"Let's go, you two—"

She called to the two demons who seemed to be able to quarrel here all afternoon: "Open the door for me and go to Alphonse von Pilotti's house.

"...I want to give him a real surprise."

"Yes, sir."

The Mirror Demon responded immediately.

But another doubt arose in its own mind:

——Hey, wait?

...Come to think of it, wasn't I originally planning to go back to the dream world for vacation?

Without having time to think, it instinctively plunged into working overtime again after leaving its job.
