Magic Underachiever

Charles didn't expect that Duncan actually wanted to invite Jessica to join Gazing into the Abyss.

It seems that Duncan believes that the demon lord Morris will spread evil, chaos and fear throughout the world. Even if the Gazing into the Abyss Church is not valued by the demons, it can destroy the Church of the Good in a desperate environment and become the largest church.

As the one who released Morris, Duncan is very likely to become the next president of the church.

However, looking at the attitude of Morris and the demons towards Gazing into the Abyss, Duncan is not sure what Morris will do to Gazing into the Abyss in the future. Therefore, inviting Jessica to join Gazing into the Abyss has become a measure for Duncan to protect himself.

There is an angel sleeping in Jessica's blood that makes Morris afraid. If she can be pulled into the Gazing into the Abyss and gradually trained to be a believer of the Lord of Fear, maybe that angel can be transformed into a fallen angel.

Possessing powerful military force will definitely make Morris afraid when dealing with Gazing into the Abyss.

Charles looked at Jessica and asked, "This is your own business. I shouldn't choose for you."

In the plan that Charles and Jessica made at the beginning, they wanted Jessica to sneak into the Church of Gazing at the Abyss and find clues about the ancestor through the investigation of Ergus.

Now, a demon lord who knows the ancient magic era very well is in front of him. Maybe he knows who Jessica's ancestor is? But this demon lord is obviously very cunning. He didn't even say who the guardian angel of Jessica's family is, and he might not be willing to tell the identity of the ancestor.

And Charles can also be sure that these demons left here in the ancient magic era should have been targeted by the ancestor a long time ago.

They can't jump around for too long, and this clue can be broken at any time.

But the identity of Jessica's ancestor is also determined within a very small range.

Three of the former first empire of the main world: Emperor Howard, Queen Joyce and Prince Feichen. They are human beings and have a certain deterrent effect on demons. If Queen Joyce, a woman, is excluded...Jessica's ancestor should be one of Emperor Howard and Prince Feichen.

Of course, it could also be another great being that they don't know yet.

In short...it is still necessary to investigate Ergus to confirm who the ancestor is. But Charles really can't make the decision for Jessica on this matter.

Although Jessica didn't think as much as Charles did, she also knew that Duncan wanted to use her. She did not agree immediately, but asked: "If I don't join Gazing into the Abyss, will you expose what happened back then?"

Duncan dared not neglect Jessica's background. He said in a respectful way: "Dear Miss Jessica. Not everyone is qualified to be protected by an angel, and not every angel can be feared by the demon lord. You are born extraordinary. Now that you know the existence of that angel, as long as you find a way to awaken him, you will be the most powerful human in the world.

I will not be your enemy, and of course I will not reveal Charles' identity to anyone.

But the Scarab Company must know my plan with Charles, and other Gazing into the Abyss believers may also have some speculations about the orphanage incident like me.

If you don't reach an alliance agreement with me, I have no reason to take the risk to protect Charles."

Duncan explained his thoughts to Jessica. He hoped that Jessica would consider Charles' safety and join the Gazing into the Abyss Church.

As for awakening the angel, it was not to fool Jessica. Duncan really has this idea. Gazing into the Abyss needs a fallen angel who can intimidate Morris. The deterrent power of a sleeping angel is definitely not as good as that of an awakened fallen angel.

Duncan believes that with Gazing into the Abyss's research on evil divine power, there must be a way to transform that angel into a fallen angel and then wake him up.

Jessica is indeed very concerned about Charles. She doesn't know which direction this incident will develop, but Charles' identity must have been exposed. Whether it is to protect Charles or to continue to investigate her ancestor in depth, Jessica feels that she needs to enter the Gazing into the Abyss.

"Okay..." Jessica stroked Hurricane's head and replied to Duncan: "I can join Gazing into the Abyss, but I definitely can't start as an ordinary believer. And... you can't force me to believe in the Lord of Dread.

In fact, I don't like Gazing into the Abyss or the devil."

"Good feelings can be cultivated slowly." Duncan was very happy that Jessica agreed to join Gazing into the Abyss. He said confidently: "The world has a very big misunderstanding about Gazing into the Abyss and the Lord of Dread, thinking that evil is bad. No... Evil is actually to be powerful and unscrupulous, not affected by secular morality. Constraint.

Depriving weak individuals of their right to survive will allow the strong to obtain more and better resources.

This is the law of survival that all things in the world abide by, but humans use hypocrisy to restrain their own hands and feet, making themselves weak.

If humans want to become stronger, they must accept the choice of evil and chaos. This may be cruel, but it is the only way for humans to grow into higher-level creatures.

We stare into the abyss, and the abyss also stares at us. Only by breaking through our own fear and jumping out of the abyss can we be reborn from the abyss. "

As a senior faculty member of Staring into the Abyss, Duncan's level of preaching is of course high. Jessica was stunned for a long time after listening, and felt that what Duncan said was right, and the survival of the fittest in the world is so cruel. The moral standards formulated and followed by humans seem to let weak genes affect the evolution of the entire ethnic group.

Charles certainly knew how Gazing into the Abyss deceived believers. He was the same age as Jessica when he joined Gazing into the Abyss. The more you think, the easier it is to fall into a vicious circle of thinking...

Seeing that Jessica's mind was confused by Duncan's influence, he said: "Think about what you have experienced. Those who say these words have not experienced the most desperate and helpless times.

I don't know whether what Gazing into the Abyss believes in is right or wrong. But I can be sure that believing in evil has only two results for humans: humans will be stronger than they are now or weaker than they are now.

With only a 50% chance, it is not worth it for us to overturn the current mature values ​​and morals and gamble with the fate of mankind.

You may be confused in the future, and you may face the choice between good and evil, but no matter what choice you make, you must first have the strength to make a choice."

Although Charles betrayed Gazing into the Abyss, it does not mean that he turned to kindness, but more rational, and no longer regarded Gazing into the Abyss as a holy book. Therefore, Charles did not interfere too much with Jessica in terms of position, but just reminded her that she must have the strength to take any path.
