?Chapter 537: Chapter 474 Malice Perception Chapter 537: Chapter 474 Malice Perception “I know of whom you speak, a thief who fears death.”


    Upon hearing Tao Yu’s description, Medici set his sights on a potential target.


    He had slowly grown accustomed to this environment, after all, he had been confined for two thousand years, and when idle, he could argue with himself and never feel lonely.


    Ever since that guy had delivered a bit of the True Creator’s Divinity some time ago and then completely severed the Divinity from the True Creator, Medici knew his own plan had gone bankrupt.


    Now the only option was to think long term.@@@@


    And he would also offer some guidance by providing certain information.


    “A thief?


    An Angel of the Marauder pathway at Sequence One?


    ...


    Why would he do that?


    Fearing death?


    Is someone after hima?€|, an Angel of the Marauder pathway aspiring to ascend to godhood?”


    A spark of realization flickered in Tao Yu’s heart.


    He did not fully trust Medici, who undoubtedly also had his own schemes.


    The problem might very well lie with this fellow of the Marauder pathway.


    To force a Sequence One Angel to hide so wretchedly, and to take shelter in a place like Becland, the pursuer must be incredibly formidable.


    “What can you tell me about the person pursuing him?


    Are there strengths and weaknesses even among Angels?”


    “Heh, you’ve gotten your hands on that Red Priest card, you should have seen the conditions for deification.”


    Medici, realizing he couldn’t leave anytime soon, started to revert somewhat to his true self, and his manner of speaking became quite annoying.


    Yet from his words, Tao Yu managed to glean much information he wanted to know, of course, it’s also very possible that the old guy deliberately divulged it to him.


    “Are you saying he has more of the Sequence One or uniqueness?


    Do you know him?”


    “Sort ofa?€|”


    Medici did not say much more, and Tao Yu knew he would not be able to find out anything else.


    It was highly likely that the guy was very strong, and had an awful personality; was Medici hoping to set Tao Yu against him?


    “An Angel, huh?


    Under normal circumstances I wouldn’t engage with onea?€|”


    As these thoughts went through Tao Yu’s mind, he subsequently exited the conversation with the old man...


    ...


    Turning around to find Klein for a meal, only to discover he wasn’t home, Tao Yu pivoted on his heel, heading towards where Eve and her group were staying, but found the place empty.


    “They’re being overly cautious.”


    Tao Yu had an inkling why, because they had investigated that swindler Lanerus and even pinpointed his approximate location.


    Perhaps knowing that the official extraordinary organization was on the move, they chose to flee temporarily.


    “Isn’t this just hiding something by drawing attention to it?


    But perhaps it’s the caution of independent extraordinaries.”


    In truth, Tao Yu felt there would have been no harm in them staying, after all, they could have just become informants like he was.


    But soon enough, Tao Yu also realized the disparity between their situations.


    He could cast aside his current identity and switch personas at any moment, allowing him to be much bolder, but they couldn’t.


    Having no other choice, he decided to visit Eve to alleviate his pleasure, which actually worked quite well, this time he’d apply even more effort...


    ...


    “Let me rest for a few daysa?€|”


    Eve’s eyes were somewhat vacant, her voice carrying a hint of hoarseness.


    She didn’t understand why she, as a Witch, could be so feeble; it was ridiculous...


    “Alright, any changes with the Aurora Society or the organization?”


    I’ll go ask the old man, wait a second.”


    Without pondering himself, Tao Yu started to inquire of the captured old man Medici.


    The other party wanted to induce his actions, so they would certainly provide some information, and he could gain something from it, whether it was accurate or not.


    Sure enough, Medici wasn’t too bothered by such a question and spoke up directly.


    “If it’s the path of the ‘Abyss’, there’s a strong restraining power against divination.


    Consider it akin to ‘Malice Perception’ which can sense in advance people who might pose a threat to you.


    I think the reason why your friend sensed a crisis is that he could potentially pose a lethal threat to the other party, and then was caught by them...”


    Medici’s words made Tao Yu slightly startled.


    There’s such an unreasonable ability?


    Being able to sense a possible lethal threat in advance?


    That’s even less scientific than a Diviner, a real anti-divination and anti-investigation!


    “The Demon is Sequence Six, even if Klein has advanced, he wouldn’t pose a threat to it...


    wait, could it be because Klein would ask for my help if he encountered trouble?


    That’s why he’s the source of the problem being perceived?”


    Tao Yu faintly arrived at a conclusion and quickly returned to his body.


    Just at this moment, Tao Yu glanced out the window instinctively.


    A pitch-black dog sat quietly in an alley, staring in this direction.


    And the instant he looked at it, the large dog took off running!


    An animal!


    The serial killer turned out to be a dog!


    No wonder!


    “Trying to run away?”


    While Klein was still trying to ask questions, Tao Yu paid him no attention, leaping out and chasing after the dog into the alleyway.


    Klein, although momentarily taken aback, followed suit immediately.


    Upon seeing the rapidly running black dog, he also came to a realization.


    But why, why would it target him?


    And how did his fellow countryman manage to find it?


    Before he could ponder further, Klein had an idea and took out a key, acquired from the Mother Earth church earlier that day, which could be used to ‘open doors.’


    Physical prowess was not the strong suit of a Magician, so he relied on the key to take a shortcut, opening portals along the way, until he blocked the path of the large black dog.


    He flung several cards forward, which covered the black dog like bullets.


    Pfft~ Pfft~


    Even as the dog attempted to dodge, the cards sliced wounds into its fur.


    But in the next instant, it began to swell, transforming into a large werewolf-like creature.


    Seeing the creature begin to turn keratinous, with horns growing on its forehead hinting at demonic transformation, Klein’s heart skipped a beat.


    As the giant claw swiped at him, with a snap, he turned into a shredded paper puppet.


    It was this delay that allowed black chains to emerge from the void, piercing the Demon’s body and entangling it, rendering it immobile despite its struggles...


    Klein was equally startled by these chains materializing out of nowhere.


    He had fought Lady Sharron and knew witches had similar methods.


    But those were threads, so how did they become such thick chains?


    Was it some other power or extraordinary item?


    Considering his fellow countryman’s uniqueness, he didn’t think much of it.


    “But why do I feel like I’ve seen this chain-binding method before?


    Have I encountered it somewhere?”


    Er, but what I’ve seen wasn’t black...
