"You came to me for the first time in so many years just to meet your mother?" Damon Helstrom lowered his eyes and did not look at his sister sitting opposite him. "What made you suddenly become such a good boy?" daughter?"

Damon pretended to be tasting the food in the family restaurant, but in reality he wanted to get out of here now. The leather sofa made him uncomfortable.But he couldn't do that. There was a reason why he agreed to his sister's invitation to meet.

He said: "I remember you were selling antiques of unknown origin in San Francisco. Are you planning to enjoy a family after you have money? I suggest you find a boyfriend. If I remember correctly, you only care about yourself." ——I hope that unfortunate guy can tolerate your temper."

"What about you, Damon?" Anna said with a sneer, "The ethics professor helps the church to perform exorcisms in his spare time? I didn't expect you to be so pious and not disgusted with your own abilities. My dear brother, you get along with your mother Is it good? Or do you think that devil is good too?"

"Last time you said you would never set foot in Portland. What happened?"

"That's because I can't stand St. Teresa's bossy physician! What's her name, Dr. Hastings? If she'd keep her fat, wet lips away from me, I might still be able to listen. Listen to what she's saying! Oh? Psychological trauma, just with a few crayon drawings? Maybe you shouldn't be angry at me, how do you say that - 'If he offends you seven times a day, and turns around and says me seven times If he regrets it, you should forgive him' - I am prepared to offend you, Damon."

"Dr. Hastings cares about you, and I care about you too." Damon took a deep breath and put down the fork he was fiddling with. "Listen, Anna, I'm not here to quarrel with you. I have no intention of letting you." Angry, really not. Forgive me, I have... something happened at Santa Teresa these days, mother... or rather, it was the devil. It instilled something into the minds of several caregivers, and one guard died. Sorry. Sorry, Anna, I really..."

Anna shrugged, showing a helpless look: "I know you didn't mean it, you also ordered a biscuit sandwich. That was just something I liked to eat when I was a child. My taste has changed now, but...thank you Come see me, brother." The tense atmosphere between the brother and sister suddenly disappeared, and Damon seemed to be more relaxed.

"I will reply to your message next time." Anna looked at the cars passing by in the night outside the window, "You can send text messages on holidays, but not on weekdays. I am very busy at work."

"My mother's condition is very bad. The devil has taken control of her." After a pause, Damon raised his head and looked into his sister's eyes.The warm yellow light melted in her slender eyes, revealing a certain sense of nostalgia.He smelled the smell of the past again, the warmth of the family before everything happened. Although it was very little, it was enough for him to miss.

"But we have expected this kind of thing, haven't we?" He asked in a low voice, his tone was much gentler than before, "Do you know something? To be honest, something has happened in my life. Abnormal, before I had a vague feeling that someone was watching me. The devil left a certain symbol on the wall. A few days after this happened, I..."

"No, nothing happened to me." Anna frowned, remembering Salomon's name to her, which was a name that did not belong to her - Satana.Until now, Anna still has some doubts about Salomon, because the magician seems to know some very secret and important things, and Anna suspects that those things are related to her mother.

"I came to you just because I met someone." She said, "Maybe he has the ability to deal with that thing... Oh my God, Damon, look at your expression. Do you think we are the only ones in this world who have the ability to deal with that thing?" Talent? Aliens have arrived in New York, billionaires and Asgardian gods are flying around in the sky, and an old American icon who has been sleeping in an ice cube for 70 years has come back to life. What else is impossible to happen? Is that normal? It’s normal for a wizard to suddenly appear, right?”

Damon raised his eyebrows and nodded.He said, "I'm more inclined to think it's a superpower. Okay, okay, let me ask you, do you trust that person?"

"There was some trust, I was in contact with him. He was powerful and he could take me from the United States to Italy in the blink of an eye."

"I noticed, 'him'."

"It's not as complicated as you think, Damon." Anna couldn't help laughing, "He is still a minor, and although he is cute pretending to be an adult, I don't like boys younger than me. The reason why he came to me was because he had a conflict with that thing and one of him had to die."

"Then we might as well give it a try." Damon said, "But you must promise me that I will accompany you throughout the whole process."

Anna agreed, thinking that Salomon would not refuse the offer.

"Oh my god, I can't imagine how bad it is here." Salomon stood next to Anna and tried to lower his voice.In front of them was a gray spire building that looked like a Quaker church. The depressing atmosphere could be felt from a distance.

"Why do you say that?" Anna looked at Salomon's clothes.This crimson holy cloth has always attracted Anna's eyes. She couldn't take her eyes away no matter what. She felt that there was some kind of magic in this dress. "Don't you have any other clothes?" she asked. "You already wore this dress when you met me."

"This is my robe, not a shirt." The mystic mage curled his lips, "Speaking of which, is the name here St. Teresa? It's named after a nun who can use her faith to reach perfection. It's not hard to imagine. How stupid are people here. Did I say stupid? Sorry, I should have said piety, the two are often confused by me and are essentially the same thing. In fact, St. Teresa was probably a A born witch who fell into madness because her talents were not channeled correctly.

In the past, girls like her could also receive education in temples and become priests of gods. Note that I am talking about the past before the first century AD.Later, such a girl would either wander around the village crazily, telling prophecies that no one could understand, or she would be carried into a barn by a few farmers and give birth to a little kid who didn't know who the father was.

Of course, it is more likely that St. Teresa simply ate brown bread made from wheat infested with ergot fungus.We all know how common ergot was in the Middle Ages. Maybe St. Teresa was a woman who took LSD for a long time, which is as stupid as the apparition of Our Lady of Fatima. "

"But Bernini's sculptures are outstanding." Anna rolled her eyes. This was the first time she had experienced the mystic's venomous tongue in religion. "Also, shouldn't you compare this kind of thing with the Salem Witch Trials?" For comparison?"

"Yes, Giovanni is indeed a master. He is the chief of Baroque art, but his late portraits lack innovation. He goes further and further into religious themes, and the signs of stylization are obvious. Perhaps it is because He must have become more pious in his later years." The Mystic Mage raised his eyebrows at Anna. He tapped his toes and tried to shake off the mud spots on his short boots.

"Besides, what happened in Salem is real, I've experienced it."

"I don't think we're here to discuss Renaissance art and the Puritans." A man with a beard walked out of the door. He looked up and down at the mystic with suspicion. "I am Damon Helstrom." He stretched out his hand, "Welcome, Salomon Damonet, Anna told me about you. I began to believe your identity, otherwise No one wears so many rings. Oh, Anna..." He turned to his sister, "Dr. Hastings would love to see you."

"Hopefully she won't let me draw crayons this time."

"Black rappers also have a lot of rings, but that doesn't mean anything." Salomon shook Damon's hand, "You can watch my work process from the sidelines. Don't worry, I am the same as those who make money by exorcism. The 4% of the Catholic Church’s total income is different for priests.”

"My ability can't work on that thing." Damon looked into Salomon's eyes, "I hope you can help her get rid of that thing."

"I hope so, because it's class time now. Although I took a day off, if we move quickly, I can still make it to the next class."
