Film and Television] The time of death

"Disappeared?" Belian frowned.It stands to reason that after the "sacrifice", the body of the sacrifice would be used by Abalon, but the sacrifice disappeared... Could it be said that the "sacrifice" failed?

Thinking of this, Belian couldn't help wondering whether Abalon's soul was incomplete due to a mistake when he was unsealed, or was his soul already incomplete before he was sealed?

No one had told him the answer, and Belian hoped it was neither.After all, after the soul is split, it cannot be repaired no matter what, and Belian does not want this to happen to Abalon at all.

Pastor Manley staggered his body and made a "please" gesture to invite them in: "I think you can come in first and sit down and talk slowly. Becky has roasted the turkey, we can talk while enjoying... Swisher, do you want to go back?" Seeing the hesitation on his friend's face, Pastor Manley asked.

He knew Swisser's daughter, Nell, who went to a missionary school, but she wasn't religious.If Swisser and Caleb were going to stay, Nell certainly couldn't be home alone.But she would definitely not be willing to discuss matters related to the church on this Christmas Eve, then Schweizer and Keller had to go back.

Swisher nodded in embarrassment, and said to Pastor Manley: "It's too dangerous for Nell to be alone at home, so I'll go back with Keller, and I won't disturb you and Lord Belian... goodbye." , Swisser took Keller to bid farewell to Belian and Pastor Manley, and drove home.

"You don't mind staying in my humble place, do you, Lord Belian?"

"Of course not." Belian replied with a smile on his lips.It would be great to have a place to stay. Although this is a church, there is no problem because it is pagan.Following the guidance of Pastor Manly, Belian walked into the house, and the closed door behind him blocked the night that had just arrived.

Tonight is doomed to sleepless.

Pastor Manly took Belian to the small church in front of him where he preached, and found the book that recorded all the demons.He took out his glasses from his coat pocket and put them on, and turned to the place where Abalon was recorded, and showed it to Belian: "This town has always had legends about the god Abalon. He loves pure power, so he always chooses virgins." As a container. I tried three times to sacrifice virgins before, but the last one failed.” Seeing Belian concentrating on studying the notes, Pastor Manly couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity: “Why, Is there no record of you in this book?"

"Well," Belian replied without raising his head, still staring at the pages of the book, "I came to the world not long after I fell into the sky—and then I was sealed. At that time, there were no exorcists and the like." People, the people who sealed me were all 'blessed' by God, so it is normal that there is no record in this kind of book."

Pastor Manley was shocked when he heard this answer, and he asked Belian with a trembling voice: "You, you mean—after Satan rebelled against God, Jehovah, you came to the world! It's incredible...No, excuse me, When did you break the seal? You are in this world—”

"It's not good for you to know too much." Belian raised his head, even though his expression was still smiling, there was no trace of a smile on his face anyway.He looked at Pastor Manley with cold and stern eyes, and the warning could not be more obvious.

Pastor Manley was agitated by this look, and knelt down on the ground, dripping with cold sweat.

Because when Belian appeared, he looked harmless to humans and animals, and his tone was very easy-going.This made the elderly Pastor Manly unconsciously weaken his guard against Belian.Even if there is respect, it is far less than the respect for Abalon he believes in.So there was a conscious lapse, and Reverend Manley asked questions he shouldn't have asked.

The coercion brought by the unconscious transgression made Pastor Manli, who was kneeling on the ground, breathless, and his head was buzzing.Just when he thought he was going to die like this, the invisible burden on his body suddenly disappeared.Pastor Manly knew that Belian was letting him go, but he didn't dare to raise his head to look at Belian again.He already understood that his question might have touched Belian's back scale. If he hadn't been useful for him to find the god of Abalon, he probably wouldn't be breathing air now.

Standing up slowly, Pastor Manly lowered his head respectfully and bowed to Belian, then wisely closed his mouth and said nothing more.

Belian stood there watching for a long time, ignoring Reverend Manly next to him as if he was empty.And Pastor Manley didn't have the slightest intention to remind Belian that the time was too long, and he still bowed his head and remained silent.

After an unknown amount of time, Becky (Pastor Manly's wife)'s voice suddenly sounded: "Manly—the last apple pie is ready~ Bring the guests over~"

These words exploded in Pastor Manly's heart like a thunderbolt, and he quickly looked up at Belian in fear, fearing that Becky's words would interrupt Belian's thoughts and offend him again.

But Belian looked like he wasn't affected at all, and he was still flipping through the book.When Pastor Manly let go of his heart, Belian suddenly closed the book with a snap, scaring Pastor Manly almost to his knees.

Seemingly not seeing Pastor Manley's gaffe, Belian put the co-authored book on the pulpit, and said slowly: "I just finished reading it too, and Abalon's is temporarily put aside... What's the matter, Manley?" Pastor?" He smiled and looked at the terrified Pastor Manley, as if wondering why Pastor Manley was so panicked.

"...It's okay. When will you visit the altar of God Abalon?"

"Of course I'll go after dinner." Belian said in a natural tone, choking so much that Pastor Manley almost didn't come up.

Leading Belian to the dining room, the expression on Pastor Manley's face was unpredictable, but he didn't say anything more.

The two of them arrived at the restaurant in a strange atmosphere. Once they entered, Pastor Manley immediately changed his expression and walked towards Becky, keeping a distance from Belian.

Becky didn't notice the stagnant atmosphere between her husband and this "cute" guest who she knew was very important, so she warmly stepped forward to give Belian a hug and welcomed him into the main seat.

Belian was very comfortable eating this meal. In his opinion, the chubby Ms. Becky's craftsmanship at least satisfied the stomach that had been tortured in the past few months. For him, it is one of his great joys in this world.

But it may not be so easy for Reverend Manley.His inadvertent frown almost made Becky think that her craftsmanship had regressed, but seeing that Belian was satisfied with the meal, she didn't say anything more.

After the meal, Pastor Manley explained to Becky and took Belian to an open space not far from the church.In the center of the clearing was something resembling a stone bed, surrounded by several steles engraved with runes.With eyes with good night vision, Belian probably looked at the engraved runes, and found that they were all symbols that imprisoned mana, which were of little value to him.So he strolled towards the stone bed placed in the center, but was disappointed to find that there were no other clues on it except for some dried blood that had not been washed.Not even a trace of power fluctuation left by Abalon.

But it is also expected.Caressing the cold stone bed, Belian thought so.Although it might be useless for him to wait until Abalon appears, it is better than searching aimlessly... Maybe he can really ask something from Abalon.

Belian, who made up his mind to find Abalon before making plans, decided to stay here for a while before leaving.After he told Pastor Manly about his arrangement, Pastor Manly immediately asked Becky to pack up a guest room for Belian to live in, and planned to introduce Belian to the congregation the next day (...), but was rejected Bellian declined, citing "low profile".

There are quite a few virgins who have had menarche in the whole town, but it is impossible to determine the specific candidate, and Abalon's power fluctuates from time to time and is very unstable, making it impossible for Belian to determine the specific location. He can only be sure that he is in this town inside.Other than that there is no result.

It didn't take long for the residents of the town to know this young man from outside.Although everyone was somewhat xenophobic, but seeing that the most prestigious and most prestigious priest in the town respected him, no one did anything out of the ordinary.

In the next summer, Belian still couldn't find Abalon, but got acquainted with Keller, who was similar to Abalon in human form.Apart from the accident when they met at the beginning, Keller accepted Belian, a seemingly mysterious outsider.Sometimes Belian would drop by the Swisher Farm to visit. Neil, who knew nothing about it, thought that Belian was a new friend of his brother Keller, and every time he greeted him warmly, because his brother had never Brought friends over here. .

It was another ordinary weekend, and Bailey ran to "play" with the young Keller early in the morning when he had nothing to do.

He hung upside down outside the window of Keller's room, watching Keller, who had just woken up after sleeping, sitting on the edge of the bed and slowly changing clothes without any sense of guilt.

Keller just put on his pants and felt a chill behind him.He suddenly turned his head to look at the window, only to find that the window was opened at some point. "It's strange...it's obviously closed." Keller muttered, grabbing the shirt at the head of the bed, but the arm that was about to be raised was held down by the hand that had been protruding from behind.

"Belian!!" Keller yelled angrily, but turned around and saw Belian again.Frustrated, he tried to pick up his shirt and put it on again, only to find Belian sitting on his bed.

"long time no see!"

"Get off my bed!"

Hearing Keller's warning, Belian smiled and didn't take it seriously.He greeted Keller in a good mood, but the next moment he heard the exclamation from Neil next door, his face changed.

"Nair!" Hearing his sister's voice, Keller didn't care about Belian, and rushed to the next door, not seeing Belian's excited expression at all.

Belian walked slowly to the next door and leaned against the door frame. The smile on his face deepened as he watched Keller comfort Neil who had woken up from the nightmare.

Finally found your offering?Abalon.
