I upgraded and added points in the Holy Inquisition

An arm as thick as cardboard stretched out from the rift in space, holding a letter with the emblem representing the butler Randolph ironed on it.

Lloyd reached for the letter, and an Enforcer student happened to be passing by. He screamed in fright when he saw it.

"Ah wow! What is this?"

"Don't! Don't be nervous! It's okay for you to be like this. This is a messenger from a strong man. Don't be afraid. He is harmless."

Lloyd explained quickly.

The arm quickly cooperated with Lloyd's explanation and gave the student a friendly wave as a greeting.

"So that's what happened. It really shocked me."

The student patted his chest and continued:

"I have read in books about this magical messenger that can deliver letters and items across space. At that time, I thought it would look like a kitten or puppy, but it turned out to be like this? It's so magical..."

Hearing what he said, the cardboard arm quickly raised its straight finger, ring finger, and little finger, making a gesture that represented a fox. Perhaps he wanted to express that he was a little fox?

"Haha, he is so interesting. What about Senior Lloyd? Do you also have such a magical messenger?"

"Uh... not yet, I will try to get one in the future."

Lloyd smiled and said truthfully.

In fact, he would like to say that he once had many such messengers, such as the little donkey with wings that could fly; the naive Void Tyrannosaurus rex; the young black meat mountain devil, etc.

The student chatted for a few words and then left, but the cardboard arm did not leave. Instead, it held its hands in a posture, as if waiting for something.

"Huh? Do you need me to reply immediately?"

Lloyd asked quickly.

The cardboard arm gave a thumbs up in approval.

"Then please come in first and I'll make you a cup of tea."

Lloyd didn't want to scare others anymore, so he opened the office door a little further, then stepped aside and invited the other party to come in.

The cardboard arm then flashed in the air, along with the space rift, and appeared above a chair next to the desk, continuing to pose as if it were holding hands.

Lloyd closed the door and dug out a brand new teapot and tea set - this was given to him by an inquisitor the day before yesterday. He said that he was thanking him for solving the big crisis in the 18th District, and he also helped to vent his anger, so he This small gift expresses my sincerity.

After lighting the matching small stove and boiling a pot of water, Lloyd opened the butler's letter, then took out the notebook as a code book and began to decipher the butler's creepy scrawls.

It's probably because I haven't received a letter from the housekeeper for a while. The handwriting on it has become increasingly difficult to understand. If I don't have the notes as a reference, I'm afraid I have to find a nurse in the hospital to decipher it.

Royd read the letter without guessing. It was probably talking about the previous agreement between the two. It was almost time. He hoped that the two of them could meet at the last pub tonight, and reminded Lloyd that there would be more to come. Set aside three days.

Lloyd did remember this and attached great importance to it. After all, it was directly related to a core material for promotion to the fifth level.

I just didn’t expect the time to come so soon…

He first made a cup of tea for the cardboard arm opposite him who was still waiting for a reply, and then he picked up his pen and started to reply, saying that he would definitely go there on time.

After handing the letter to the cardboard arm, the other party picked up the still-hot cup of tea and poured it directly into the space crack. Then he gave Lloyd another thumbs up, then picked up the reply and disappeared.

"Tomorrow... wouldn't that be the day that Wei Ya comes back, and I haven't come back yet?"

Lloyd roughly calculated the time and pursed his lips.

Somehow, he thought this was good?

Since this trip would take three days, Lloyd went to say hello to the inquisitor on duty, then found Metis in the library, returned the bell to her, and explained:

"I have to do a small favor for a certain high-ranking powerful person. I have to leave for three days after that. I have to work hard here."

"Hmph~ Got it."

Metis just snorted coldly, without raising his head, and continued to read the book in his hand.

Eh? Wait...she's actually reading a book?

Lloyd was a little surprised.

"Why are you still standing there? Do you still expect me to say a few words of concern? Stop dreaming! I am an out-and-out bad woman."

Metis said impatiently again and drove away Lloyd.

........................

In the evening, Lloyd arrived at the agreed-upon pub on time and saw the butler waiting there at the door.

"Long time no see, Lloyd."

"Long time no see, Mr. Randolph."

"I heard that you have been going very smoothly during this period. Several old friends have mentioned you. It seems that my choice from the beginning was very correct."

"You're overrated. It's just some trivial work."

After a few words of greeting, the two of them sat in a private room in the tavern, and then the butler took out a device that looked like a navigational compass and placed it on the table.

In an instant, the noise and bustle in the tavern disappeared, and the two of them seemed to be isolated.

"A little toy for soundproofing."

The housekeeper explained casually, and then went straight to the topic and told Lloyd about the favor he needed.

Probably, the two of them will go to a very remote town together tomorrow, and then there, they will meet with two other strong men of the [Embodiment] system and the two 'readers' they brought with them, and then the three parties will have a discussion. A special 'gamble' -

Three 'readers', including Lloyd, will take turns to enter the three [stories] carefully arranged by the three strong men, and try to find flaws and loopholes in the stories, trying to decipher this [story].

The fewer [Stories] that have been cracked indicate that they are the most complete and true, and are the final winners, who can absorb and merge the [Stories] of the other two losers, thus satisfying the conditions for the eighth [Transcendence].

"Is this the eighth [Transcendence] ceremony of the [Reflection] series?"

After hearing this, Lloyd asked.

"Yes, the [Detachment] of the [Embodiment] system is quite special, because no one's [Story] can be absolutely true and complete. It must absorb other people's [Stories] to improve and complete it. This That’s why the eighth level of the [Embodiment] system is relatively rare.”

The butler explained patiently.

"Uh... what will happen to the strong man who loses his [story]?"

Lloyd asked worriedly again.

The housekeeper smiled and replied in a very casual tone:

"Don't be nervous. At least your life is safe. I just lost all the efforts and preparations for [Transcendence], so you can relax a little. Anyway, this is not the first time I have lost."
