I think? If I knew the answer, how could I be here? I would have found a way to pass on the information indirectly! Leonard muttered silently, and considered his words in his mind.
During this process, he found that although he was standing upright and looking down at Dwayne Dantès, the wealthy man sitting leisurely in the armchair was in a more dominant position, just like a high-ranking official who was casually listening to reports from his subordinates.
This made Leonard feel a little uncomfortable. He looked around subconsciously, pulled a chair over, and sat back half-habitually and half-intentionally.
"I think he, or you, are looking for something.
"In Tingen, he infiltrated the Nighthawks to look for a certain item. In Backlund, he sneaked into the Chanis Gate to look for that item!
“The first time, he didn’t gain anything, so he took advantage of Ince Zangwill’s attack and faked his death to escape.
"The second time, he still couldn't find it, so he left behind the Chanis Gate without taking anything!"
Leonard used a firm tone in these few sentences to reveal that he already knew that Gehrman Sparrow was Sherlock Moriarty and Klein Moretti. He wanted to use this to create a pressure effect, so that Dwayne Dantès would no longer be so calm and no longer have the idea of quibbling.
As expected, he went to dig my grave... Klein sighed in his heart, picked up the glass of red wine, and shook it gently, saying:
"Do you think we would make two reckless attempts in a row without accurate intelligence? You know, there is only one chance for this kind of thing. Once it fails, it means there is no chance of success again.
“So, who would rely on actions to verify their guesses when the goal is not clear?”
He acquiesced to my statement that Klein Moretti was Gehrman Sparrow, a member of the secret organization that believed in The Fool, the "thief" Black Emperor... Leonard tried not to frown, and put his right foot on his left leg and said:
“So, it’s not that they didn’t find it, but other factors led to the failure?
"During these two stages, there were only two things in common between the Church of Saint Selina in Tingen and the Church of Saint Samuel in Backlund: the Sealed Artifact '2-049' and the Antigonus Family Notes.
"Antigonus Family Notes... Is that it? Klein Moretti joined the Nighthawks because of it!"
Although the reasoning process is wrong, the answer is correct... Klein laughed and said:
“Our minds are not meant to be used as decoration.
"If his goal was the Antigonus family notes, there was no need for him to join the Nighthawks. He had enough opportunities before you got them.
“Even after you got it, there was still a chance that he would get it. You should know the situation at that time better than me.
"Also, since the target was the Antigonus family notes, why didn't he take it this time?"
Leonard Mitchell, who was mocked by Dwayne Dantes, realized that his sudden idea was full of logical contradictions. He felt ashamed and a little angry.
He took a breath quietly and said:
"Then why did he sneak into Chanis Gate twice using different methods? And this time, not only did he not take anything, he also left nothing behind, and he also entered a strange state."
As soon as Leonard finished speaking, he saw Dwayne Dantès, with graying temples, smiling meaningfully:
"As for the latter incident, I don't know why either. Perhaps you should ask the 'Goddess of Night'."
Goddess...what does he mean? Leonard was suddenly shocked and suspicious, and it was hard to imagine what happened behind the Chanis Gate of St. Samuel Church.
Then, he heard Dwayne Dantès laugh in a low voice:
“As for your first question, I think you may have misunderstood something.
“Members of our organization come from different places, join for different purposes, and choose to change their beliefs, but before that, their lives still belong to themselves.
"Just like me, I have a past and a present. The reason I came here is because of the last name I gave myself."
Dantes... "The Return of the Count"... He joined a secret organization that believed in "The Fool" for revenge and came to Backlund? Leonard nodded thoughtfully.
Klein paused for a few seconds, took a sip of red wine, and continued with a smile:
"Similarly, he was brought back to life because of the curse in the Antigonus family notebook, also for revenge."
Klein had just deliberately mentioned his current last name, "Dantes," and the word revenge, in order to distinguish himself from German Sparrow Klein Moretti in advance, so that Leonard would not think that the two had similar goals and things in common, and speculate that there might be a deeper connection hidden.
——Taking the initiative to talk about this matter can form a fixed mindset in the listener's mind, and subconsciously follow the logic of the content of the words, and regard Dwayne Dantès and Klein Moretti as two completely different people. The only thing they have in common is that they both want revenge. In this world, there are definitely more than just two avengers.
Leonard unconsciously lowered his raised right leg, leaned forward slightly and said:
"revenge?
"Who does he want revenge on?"
After asking, the elegant and handsome middle-aged gentleman in his eyes slightly raised his mouth corners:
"Lanevers, and...
"Ince Zangwill."
"Ince Zangwill..." Leonard repeated, his expression changing uncontrollably for several times before finally returning to silence.
His emerald green eyes stared ahead, briefly losing focus, and it was unknown what he was thinking about.
Huh... After a long silence, Leonard let out a breath and loosened his hands that had been clenched instinctively.
He asked in a slightly hoarse voice:
"Did he really kill Lanevus?"
“Of course.” Klein sighed to himself and responded calmly.
Leonard opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't speak and pursed his lips tightly.
Seeing that his purpose had been achieved, Klein immediately changed the subject and said with a laugh:
“If you have similar goals or need help, you can also chant His holy name, and perhaps you will get a response.”
He... the secret existence "The Fool"? Leonard thought that Dwayne Dantès was just preaching out of habit, trying to develop himself into that secret organization, so he didn't think too much and responded with silence.
Klein smiled and said:
"By the way, tell Pales Zoroast: a member of our organization met the Blasphemer Amon in the God-Forsaken Land."
This sentence contained so much information that Leonard didn't know how to react for a moment. All he could think of were the following:
"'God-Forsaken Land'? The 'God-Forsaken Land' that the seven major churches cannot find? This secret organization actually has members who can enter and exit the 'God-Forsaken Land'!
"'Blasphemer' Amon... the old man said that he was hiding from a High Sequence Personnel named Amon. He was severely injured by the other party, so he had to parasitize in my body...
"Dwayne Dantès's tone and manner of speaking really sound like an undead monster that survived the Fourth Epoch, and he is at the same or similar level as the old man... In front of him, I really don't feel superior at all, and I even lack confidence..."
As his thoughts flashed, Leonard managed to come back to his senses and said:
"I'll pass it on to him."
Well, after Leonard entered someone else’s dream, the old man seemed unable to accurately grasp his senses. Otherwise, he would have had some abnormal reactions when he heard the Blasphemer Amon... The words of the Serpent of Fate Will Ausetin can also prove this point: it was not until the poet classmate was really in danger that the old man noticed it and took action... Very good, "He" is not completely "parasitic"... Klein smiled as he interpreted the hidden information:
"You can go back now, and you can rest assured that my target is not the Church of Night."
It refers to the next purpose, not the previous one... Klein silently added in his heart.
Leonard had obtained enough information and did not dare to stay. He left his chair and bowed.
Then, he escaped from Dwayne Dantes' dream.
…………
In a room on the street behind St. Samuel's Church, Leonard woke up and heard the slightly old voice of the "parasite" in his body echoing in his mind:
"What did he say?"
Leonard carefully considered his words and said:
"He directly admitted that he was a member of the secret organization that believed in The Fool, as was Klein Moretti, who used the alias Gehrman Sparrow.
"Their goal is revenge, their own revenge."
Pales Zoroast was silent for a second and said:
"Did he explain why Klein Moretti was able to be resurrected? Or how he managed to fake his death to that extent?"
Leonard thought about it and said:
"The explanation he gave was that it was a curse given by the Antigonus family notes."
Curse... It was only at this moment that Leonard realized that Dwayne Dantes' choice of words was quite strange:
The power that can resurrect a dead person is actually called a curse!
Pales Zoroast seemed to have no doubts about this. After a few seconds of silence, he said:
"What else did he say?"
Leonard did not hide anything and said frankly:
"He mentioned the Blasphemer Amon, saying that a member of their organization had encountered him in the God-Forsaken Land.
"Old man, is this the Amon you mentioned?"
The slightly old voice replied after a long pause:
"It should be."
He paused and said:
"I'm thinking, Dwayne Dantès, no, the 'Fool' behind him, might really be one of my old friends..."
The old man thought he was one level higher than Dwayne Dantes, or even more than that... He was an angel on earth? Leonard thought for a moment and said:
"Which old friend?"
Pales Zoroast did not answer, but asked:
"Are you going to find another opportunity to reveal the matter between Dwayne Dantès and Klein Moretti?"
Leonard was silent for a moment, and after about ten seconds he said in a low voice:
“Not yet.
"Perhaps there is still a possibility for him, me, and them to cooperate...
"And the church did not suffer any substantial losses this time."
The "parasite" in his body stopped speaking and seemed to have fallen asleep again.
Leonard slowly raised his head, looked at the information in front of him, and whispered with dark eyes:
"He left me behind..."
