Chapter 72 Playing the Role of a "Fallen Angel"
Fyodor calmly asked, "Can you forgive my family?"
Raphael didn't speak, but instead took out a small bottle of black potion and poured it into Fyodor's glass: "Drink it."
This was the poison he had specially prepared for this operation.
Fyodor hesitated for a moment, then picked up his glass, took a deep breath, and drank it down in one gulp.
Raphael nodded in satisfaction and gestured for the others to leave.
The bodyguards and servants rushed outside, and Fyodor's family also left amidst tears.
Only Raphael and Fyodor remained in the restaurant. The cloth merchant's body had turned black, clearly indicating that the poison had spread throughout his body.
Raphael got up, dismantled a chair with his bare hands, then tore off a piece of tablecloth and tied it into a makeshift cross.
thump~
The poison took effect, and Fyodor collapsed to the ground, convulsing.
Raphael calmly inserted the cross into the floor, and before Fyodor's body stiffened, he dragged him to the front of the cross and made him into a prayer position.
Then Raphael wrote on the white wall with red wine: Repent!
After doing all this, Raphael quickly returned to the first floor, where Joao's characteristics had already been extracted.
After collecting the attributes, Raphael dipped his brush in their blood and wrote: This is the consequence of serving an evil god.
After doing all this, Raphael wiped his hands with a towel and then quickly left.
Two hours later, after changing his clothes and mode of transportation several times, Raphael met Mr. C and gave him a detailed account of the mission, handing him a copy of the "Wrathful People" and a copy of the "Sailor's" extraordinary characteristics.
After hearing what Raphael had written down on the spot, Mr. C laughed loudly, "Hahaha! Very good, you handled this matter very creatively."
His eyes were full of approval and admiration when he looked at Raphael.
He preferred to handle things creatively rather than with his subordinates who only knew how to kill, because that way everyone would talk about the case more often, which was equivalent to talking about the Aurora Society more often.
He glanced at the special attributes in his hand: "Since you've handed over these two attributes, you don't need to return the remaining 1000 pounds."
Raphael smiled and said, "Thank you."
At Fyodor's villa.
Fabio, the senior deacon of "The Punisher," arrived at a room on the first floor, surrounded by several team members.
The bodies of the two "substitutes" have been removed and disposed of, but the words on the wall remain: This is the consequence of serving an evil god.
Upon seeing the word "evil god," Fabio angrily pounded the wall: "They're too arrogant! We must find the murderer! Kill all those bastards from the 'Aurora Society'!"
With a crash, the wall was knocked down, and the words left behind by the murderer were buried under the bricks.
The "punishers" around him wanted to remind the senior deacon that this was important evidence, but they dared not.
On a horse-drawn carriage.
Having reported the results of his mission, Raphael is returning to the Mafia headquarters.
He watched the people coming and going outside the car window, lost in thought.
Just now, he suddenly digested about a third of the "Fallen Angel" potion!
At first, he thought it was because he had killed an official extraordinary being today, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized that the main reason for digesting the potion was that he had trampled on the universal values of this world today.
The radiance of the seven true gods has always shone throughout the world. In many cases, clergy are the agents of the gods, and they often have more influence than local officials and councilors.
Fortunately, this is a world where gods exist. Under their watchful eyes, these forces did not collude to form political and economic groups. Or rather, they dared not go too far.
Regardless, people's belief in their respective gods is an important part of life. People have become accustomed to the gods being high above them and to accepting the values conveyed by clergy through sermons.
But Raphael didn't think so. Before he transmigrated here, he found it hard to understand why most people lived such miserable lives when there were seven true gods in this world.
At that time, he wasn't interested in these gods. While others worshipped and respected them, he felt that these gods were probably not good people. At least, their purpose in existence wasn't to protect ordinary people.
Later, due to some experiences, Raphael "remembered" some of the ancient history of this world, and the last bit of respect he had for the gods disappeared. This was because these gods were not originally gods; they only became gods after winning the struggle in the Fourth Age.
Of course, they did do some things that were meaningful to all of humanity, such as working together to "plug the hole" in the astral plane and fight against the Outer Gods, and the Church protecting most ordinary people from extraordinary harm.
But in Raphael's view, the former was because they were doing it for their own benefit, since they would be the first to be killed if the barrier broke. The latter, however, was what the church should do.
Raphael had only thought about it before, but today he killed the official Beyonders and left a message for them saying that they were working for an evil god.
This act shattered the prevailing values of the time. That's why Raphael was able to digest so many potions at once.
Before this mission, Raphael had thought that the "Fallen Angel's" potion would be digested to some extent, but he did not expect it to be digested so much.
This made him rethink the meaning of "fallen angel". He had previously thought that "fallen angels" would often do evil things and be ruthless in their actions, which is why people thought of them as "cold-blooded".
But now Raphael suddenly realizes that the reason the potion's name was changed from "The Cold-Blooded One" to "The Fallen Angel" is because "The Cold-Blooded One" does not fully describe the characteristics of this sequence.
This sequence requires abandoning all human conscience, and all morality and norms of the human world. And to achieve this,
He looks like a cold-blooded person.
Raphael had originally planned to kill a few more official Beyonders to digest the potion, but after realizing this, he understood that the two lines of text he left at the scene were the key to digesting the potion.
Such an opportunity only comes once. If we use the same method again, we probably won't be able to digest the potion. We'll have to think of other ways to trample on other universal values.
However, this matter needs to be put on hold for now; he still needs to prioritize digesting the "werewolf's" potion.
Raphael has been planning this for several days. Tomorrow he will play the role of a "werewolf" again, this time voluntarily, which should allow him to digest some of the potion.
The following morning, Raphael, unusually, dressed in formal attire and went to attend the wedding of the nobleman Calvin Thomas.
As Raphael said before, he would have definitely attended even if Calvin hadn't invited him!
