Without hesitation, he injected a trace of spirituality into the ring in his hand.
The next second, an illusory light curtain rose from the ring, interweaving and entangled in the air, and finally formed a piece of text.
"The party starts at ten o'clock tonight."
Looking at the scarlet subtitles floating in the air, Mario let out a long sigh.
As long as he waits until ten o'clock tonight, he can go to the party to look for the person who sold the Seal to him.
Even if that person is not there, he can ask other party members to help him keep an eye out for the warlocks in the Night Path by issuing tasks.
For this, he can pay most of his fortune.
Such a generous reward will surely not leave the party members indifferent.
This is definitely much better than him wandering aimlessly in search of a warlock's way through the night.
Mario held the ring in his hand tightly, and he wished that time would come to ten o'clock in the evening immediately.
But unfortunately, time seemed to be against him. The more he wanted time to pass faster, the slower it seemed.
Every passing minute and every second was like a blunt knife cutting flesh, tormenting Mario's nerves.
Finally, after a long wait, he finally made it to ten o'clock in the evening.
During this time, Gina passed by him several times and even sat next to him once.
But she never looked at where Mario was, as if he didn't exist at all.
Mario let out a long breath and looked at the clock on the wall which pointed to ten o'clock. He slowly extended a wisp of consciousness and used it to touch the ring in his hand.
In the past, every time he touched the ring with his consciousness at the right time, the ring would take his soul into a mysterious palace in the next second.
But today, he didn't know what happened. He touched the ring several times with his consciousness, but there was still no response.
It was as if the power in the ring did not sense his soul.
Mario was struck by lightning and stood there in a daze.
Even that honorable Void Follower cannot sense my existence?
Mario lay back weakly, staring blankly at the ceiling of the room.
He lay like this for a long time. When the hand of the wall clock pointed to 12 o'clock, it was as if a switch was triggered, and the night covering the room suddenly became much darker.
In the deep night, Mario's shadow stood up from the ground.
But this time it didn't stand by and watch, but sat on the sofa with Mario, and half of its body had merged into Mario's body.
Suddenly, the half of the face where the shadow and Mario overlapped moved. Its lips moved slowly, and it uttered a name with some difficulty and hoarseness:
"Arianna!"
His voice was vague and hoarse, as if he hadn't spoken for a long time and had forgotten how to speak.
Mario, who was sitting on the sofa, seemed unaware of this. The words were clearly uttered with half of his lips, but he himself had no impression of it at all.
The next morning, after a night of thinking, Mario realized that he could not continue to be so decadent and he had to save himself.
With the help of this secret status that even the church could not discover, he could walk boldly on the streets.
He could just go wherever there were clues of the appearance of the Warlock of the Night Path without having to worry about the people in the church noticing him.
Do it as you think. When a faint light appeared in the sky and the world began to wake up, Mario walked into the bedroom, took one last look at his wife, and left without looking back.
After he left, Gina slowly opened her eyes, a hint of confusion in her eyes. Just now, she felt as if someone was looking at her.
…
On the other side, time goes back to the past.
After Eros finished teasing Undine, he turned back to the living room and said to Angelica, who was standing by the side and looked very well behaved:
"Little Tracy, go to the first floor and call that woman named Seren up!"
"Yes! Master!"
Angelica responded crisply, and then walked up to the first floor with her slender and straight legs.
Eros watched the petite figure walk out the door, then sat down on the sofa in the living room.
"What are you doing with that woman called Seren?"
Undine, who followed Eros back to the living room, couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
Estelle, who was sitting upright and elegantly on the sofa opposite and reading a book, remained expressionless when she heard the conversation between her children, but her ears perked up.
Eros glanced at Undine, but didn't hide anything.
He directly told him about the relationship between Seren and George, and how Seren asked him to help turn him back into a man.
After hearing this, Wendini said with disgust:
"That's his father. How can he go down... go down..."
Having said that, Wendini was too embarrassed to continue.
At this moment, Estelle's face showed an uncontrollable look of disgust and she got goose bumps all over her body.
Seeing the disgust on the mother and daughter's faces, Eros spread his hands:
"Most cultists have abnormal brains, so I don't find anything they do strange."
Wendini nodded in agreement, and then she seemed to have thought of something and asked again:
"So you called her over now, are you trying to help her turn back into a man?"
"When did you acquire such ability?"
Upon hearing this, Eros took out the finger bone from his pocket and tossed it in his hand.
"This is the seal I found on George. It can deform the target's body according to your wishes."
…
He roughly explained the function of this seal to Wendini.
After hearing this, Wendy's eyes sparkled and he said with anticipation:
"Can you let me use this seal?"
Eros's eyes fell on Undine's little face which was full of expectation, and then he glanced down.
"No, don't even think about it!" He refused decisively.
Wendini puffed up his cheeks and muttered softly, "Stingy!"
How could Eros not know what she was planning? He immediately glanced at Wendini and said:
"Using this seal is also risky. If you don't do it right, the normal parts of your body will become deformed."
"You don't want to have another mouth on your forehead, do you?"
Wendini imagined in her mind what it would be like if she had a mouth growing on her forehead. As soon as the image appeared, she couldn't help but shudder.
