Ciel took a deep breath and spoke patiently, "All of this is just a dream from the oracle... In the real world, none of this happened. Your trusted associates are still alive and well."

Tara just stared at Charles blankly, and it was unclear whether she had heard what Charles said or not.

Charles sighed softly, then put his hand on the brim of his hat and looked up at the sky.

There's only one hour left... Did bad luck skip work... Why hasn't it come yet...

Charles' left hand released Tara's arm, reached into the large pocket of his soaked windbreaker, and took out two sealed objects.

It is the "evil eye" and the "good luck coin".

Although the process was very different from what she had imagined, in the end, she still perfectly obtained these two sealed objects that could potentially solve the mystery.

"Ugh……"

Ciel felt that she had sighed more in this hour than she had in the past three years.

Negative emotions shrouded her mind all the time, and she felt like she didn't even have the strength to breathe.

"Just die, let me see what you are..."

Charles also reached into his pocket with his right hand and took out an antique silver stopwatch.

Ciel's exclusive sealed item, [Echo of the Silver Timebinder]

She clasped her hands together, the three seals touching each other in her hands, soaked by the rain - but nothing happened.

Why……

Aren't the others already dead?

He had already collected all three "life instruments". He had even violated countless rules before and had seen a large number of second and third level transcendents.

Just as Ciel was about to sigh, she suddenly noticed something strange.

The rain stopped.

To be more precise, the rain around her stopped.

Ciel looked up at the sky again.

If she could look down from a high altitude, she would definitely find that a shadow was formed where there was no rain, and the content of the projection was a huge raven.

"Tsk..."

Charles was a little discouraged.

If he hadn't come out this time, Charles could have happily spent the last hour of this simulation and then returned to reality.

The storm suddenly became more violent. In the strong wind, a feather that was completely black and gradually turned into azure blue at the tail slowly fell from the sky.

Not only Charles, but even the spiritual alarm in Tara's brain suddenly exploded. Charles looked at the feather in disbelief.

No third-level transcendent had ever posed such a threat to Charles.

Ciel subconsciously tightened his grip on the [Echo of the Silver Timebinder] in his hand and placed his thumb on the knob on top of the pocket watch.

Charles's simple action seemed to disturb the feather.

It no longer cared about floating gracefully, and turned into a feather arrow. Almost in an instant, it pierced through Charles' head and drilled into Charles' body.

"Uh... cough..."

A mouthful of blood spurted out of Charles' mouth. Without even much resistance, she casually threw away the three sealed objects in her hands and let them fall onto the mud.

At this moment, Charles felt a large amount of strange and bizarre knowledge madly pouring into his brain, and along with that knowledge came a powerful consciousness.

The powerful Charles had almost no ability to resist this huge consciousness and fell directly into a strange state - she completely lost control of her body, but could see and hear everything happening outside through her eyes and ears.

It's like watching an extremely realistic movie.

"Master Ciel! Master Ciel! What's wrong with you?!"

Tara opened her eyes wide and panicked instantly when she saw Charles with blood all over his face. Charles was her only spiritual support now. If she lost Charles, she would really go crazy.

In Tara's sight, Charles' originally long red hair was instantly dyed black from the roots, then continued to turn black from the middle of the hair, and finally showed a deep blue color at the ends of the hair.

The familiar, warm aura of the Mother Goddess also dissipated, replaced by a more aggressive aura.

At this time, "Charles" slowly raised his right hand, looked at his slender fingers, and a satisfied smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, as if he was very satisfied with his body.

Then, she turned her gaze to the three sealed objects on the ground, reached out and picked up the silver pocket watch.

"(Guansu language) So you are a part of me... No wonder you know so much."

"Charle" spoke the ancient Ansu language, which she had never learned before and even not many people can pronounce now.

"(Guansu language) I will become more complete..."

"Charle" looked at the pocket watch in her hand with an obsessed look. Above her head, the shadow of the raven disappeared without a trace, and the heavy rain continued to fall.

She took the pocket watch, rubbed her face with it, then raised her hand and pressed the knob on the top of the pocket watch.

Nothing happened.

"Ok?"

Ciel made a puzzled sound.

Why doesn't it work?

She bit her finger and touched the antique silver pocket watch directly, but the blood was quickly washed away by the rain and nothing happened.

"Charles" frowned, as if he had not expected this situation to happen.

Feeling the spirit's consciousness struggle faintly, she curled her lips and said, "(Ansu language) Stop struggling. In one more day, you will completely dissipate."

"(Ansu language) As for me, I still have at least three hundred years to study how to repair my body... Although it's not much time, it's enough."

"(Ansu language) Just wait quietly for your death. You should feel honored to be the vessel."

Holding the pocket watch in her hand, "Charles" raised her leg and prepared to leave, but at this moment, a white shadow blocked her way.

"You are not the Mother Goddess... who are you?"

Tara's voice came from behind.

When the Mother Goddess's breath suddenly disappeared, Tara realized something was wrong. She blocked the way of "Char" in front of her, her hoarse voice full of anger.

"Charle" didn't stop walking. A flesh-colored spider crawled out from under her hat and quickly expanded as it fell to the ground, undergoing a horrifying change.

The fully formed tall human spider pounced directly towards Tara. In this helpless situation, Tara could only recall the white shadow and barely block the human spider.

"(Ansu language) Why is it the power of nature..."

"Charle" shook her head, seeming very dissatisfied with this approach, but she seemed to have no better choice.

She just continued walking forward and disappeared in the rain.

……

Click——

Click click click——

"Charles" was walking on the road, pressing the pocket watch continuously, but still did not get any response.

If she hadn't felt that the thing in front of her was a real sealed object, she might have thought she had taken the wrong one.

"(Guansuyu) Do we have to wait until her consciousness completely dissipates... We've waited so long, a few days won't make a difference."

She put the pocket watch back into her pocket and continued walking aimlessly. The task of finding and repairing the fragments had been completed, and she no longer needed to do anything else.

Just wait.

correct……

Although this body has experienced tremendous changes in destiny and has a strong ability to resist fate, it is still essentially a fragile body.

If you keep getting wet in the rain here, you won't die, but you will probably get a serious illness.

I have to find a place to hide from the rain...

If her memory served her correctly, this body's home should be in this direction...

She walked forward step by step, as if she was not quite used to the human walking posture. It took her a long time to increase her speed to the level of a normal person - but her posture was still a little strange.

By the time she reached the house she had been monitoring, nearly an hour had passed.

"Charles" reached out and groped in the big pocket of his windbreaker. In addition to touching a bottle of potion, he also touched a key.

She took out the key and took a few seconds to align it with the keyhole. She inserted the key directly and turned it slowly.

click-

The sound of the door lock being opened sounded.

And in front of Charles's door, there was no figure or trace, only a black and blue crow feather, slowly falling on the water in the rain.

A flash of azure light passed by, and a raven with black and blue feathers appeared in the same place. It supported the ground with its wings, its head kept turning, and its round eyes gradually changed from confusion to shock. Its mouth opened wide and uttered human-like language.

“(Guansu language) Impossible… This is impossible!!!”

"(Guansu language) You are fake! I am the real one!!!"

……

A flash of silver light flashed.

Ciel felt himself regaining control of his body.

At this moment, in front of her eyes was a familiar silver-white world, and in front of her was herself with long black-blue hair and purple-red pupils. She just looked into Charles' eyes, not concealing her decadent and world-weary temperament at all.

[Save character archive]

A system message appeared in front of Ciel, bringing her back to her senses from her previous state.

She raised her hands and looked at them... In this space, her hands could move as she wished.

Thinking back to what happened just now, Charles still felt a wave of fear.

The situation where he couldn't control his body and could only watch himself do things that were completely contrary to his thoughts... Even if Feather wanted to control him to kill people close to him at that time, Ciel would be completely unable to resist.

What is this...possession?

Since Charles didn't understand the ancient Ansu language, she had no idea what the feather-shaped seal had said with its body.

However, she wrote down most of these words, so that if she heard them again or learned the ancient Ansu language, she would know what the other person was saying.

She felt that that must be the key to solving the dilemma.

"System, is the feather still in this archive?"

Charles spoke directly in this silver-white space and asked the system.

Ciel was not in a hurry to save the file. The flow rate of this space was just like the flow rate of time in simulation and reality. She could take advantage of this time to ask more questions and think for a while.

Every second you stay is a gain.

[Things that parasitize a host are not considered the host itself, so... of course they don't count.]

[This save file is just a critically injured one at best. After all, my head is chopped up, so I have to sew it up myself^^ D]

"What was that feather just now? What does it have to do with you?"

Charles then asked.

[Can't you just go to the system mall and check it out yourself? You're stalling for time, aren't you?]

[Save or not? Save or not! ]

"Save, No. 4."

Having his thoughts discovered by the system, Charles did not delay any further and directly saved the file to No.4.

Soon, the originally blank No. 4 column began to flash, and a row of names was printed on it.

No.4: Shire Coroner

After the file was saved successfully, the coroner Charles in front of him burst into a dazzling silver light and lost consciousness for a short time.
