Chapter 2425 - 2420: The Prophet Is Dead (31)

Chapter 2425: Chapter 2420: The Prophet Is Dead (31)

Adult communication is often very purposeful.

Not to mention that Akasha was originally so well-hidden, even Crystal couldn’t find her, but now she has chosen to reveal herself.

Such resolute decisiveness naturally indicates a grand plan.

Although Fu Qian still found this development satisfactory.

Ever since deciding to return to this restaurant, he had imagined what kind of visitors might come.

The result was a déjà vu that powerfully replayed a scene from the past, seeing Akasha whom Crystal had been searching for, already felt like hitting the jackpot.

Not to mention it genuinely seemed as worrisome as Crystal feared, the relationship between Akasha and the Unseen Hillock behind the door seemed rather complicated.

The name "Amber" was specially given to Crystal’s Nascent Soul for identification purposes.

Yet when the Spider Queen heard it, she showed no surprise.

This is not something that can be explained by simply visiting that place; it means that the exchanges that happened there might not be secret to her at all.

It’s indeed chilling upon closer thought.

Even brazenly displaying this fact makes her purpose here equally terrifying upon reflection.

"Yes, I know you’ve been behind the door."

Sure enough, Akasha admitted it the next moment.

"With Amber."

This agreeable attitude left Fu Qian momentarily impressed.

And as he added, he noticed Catherine had returned as well.

The two identical plates, even the arrangement of the sausages inside was the same.

...

"Yes, including what you did inside."

Not sure if, like Crystal, she had received guidance from the Prophet, she knew that being honest with an outsider like Andiel was better.

Akasha quickly nodded, directly indicating she did monitor backstage.

"Anyway, thank you for your help in this matter, I’m very sorry regarding Crystal."

Moreover, she even proactively expressed gratitude and candidly admitted to some of her actions.

"Laying eggs on someone and then blocking their contact, is it? Sounds a bit excessive, but that’s between you."

Fu Qian waved his hand, indicating that he had no intention of commenting as an outsider.

Despite it being just a metaphor, it was already blood pressure-raising.

"In any case, I’m here to tell you one thing... tonight will be very long."

Even as strong as Queen Akasha is, her eyebrows furrowed at that moment. After taking a deep breath, she chose to quickly get to the point.

Oh?

Fu Qian was indeed intrigued by this statement and glanced outside.

It was still very dark, no sign of dawn, but Akasha was evidently not some literary youth, so it likely wasn’t a rhetorical device.

"It’s the literal meaning; dawn will never come."

Sure enough, the next moment she further explained, indicating that the Unseen Hillock behind the door would never see daylight again.

...

So this is the "darkest night"? Is it not just the Unseen Hillock behind the door that’s dark?

This situation had indeed become interesting.

Akasha truly brought crucial information, and Fu Qian instantly connected it to his mission, increasingly satisfied that he hadn’t directly wreaked havoc on the other side.

"Why particularly tonight? Does it have to do with my coming here?"

And while thanking, casually taking the plate from Catherine’s hand, Fu Qian filled his mouth with another bite, not forgetting to confirm more details.

"Give it to me."

Even giving Akasha time to contemplate, seeing Catherine dared not approach that side, Fu Qian directly took another serving from her hand and pushed it towards the Spider Queen.

"Could be related, or not... you can choose to do whatever you like next, including staying here or leaving."

Even as the starch content in sausage seemed low, the Spider Queen still appeared uninterested in such food.

Just one glance and she averted her gaze, Akasha had no intention of tasting it, and responded to Fu Qian’s query full of mystery.

"Summarizing: soon this place will experience the darkest night, and I can do whatever?"

Fu Qian didn’t mind this swindler’s tone but was thoughtful.

"That’s right, but I’m not in a hurry to leave."

Truly belonging to the Evil Camp, after a brief passive moment, Akasha had adjusted her mood, with eyes glinting, her tone inspiring contemplation.

"That’s wonderful."

Fu Qian, not one lacking sentiments, expressed deep gratification.

"So you have a teamwork-oriented team?"

Though his way of showing understanding was somewhat different.

...

"Are you proposing we form a team?"

What was originally a jest was promptly over-interpreted.

Akasha’s response was swift, her expression hardly changing, even throwing a coquettish wink in return.

This stance was clear, aside from the darkest night reminder, she had no intention to answer anything else.

"Sure."

And Fu Qian didn’t push, even genuinely accepted the invitation to join the team.

As for why mention a team?

Long before dealing with the Black Doctor, he had speculated that some people inside the Unseen Hillock, might have come together under a similar enlightenment to form a grand plan.

Given Akasha’s mysterious disappearance, it was hard not to suspect she was among these "lucky ones."

So would she know about the Death Angel too?

The current situation certainly wouldn’t yield a response, but Fu Qian believed the probability covered "yes"—after all, he originally awaited the Death Angel.

Never assume anything, even if the Prophet is no longer present, as an outsider, Fu Qian still wouldn’t ignore the possibility his words and actions might be monitored.

Mentioning Ah Wei’s name upfront was meant for potential listeners.

He had said from the start, why Ah Wei who was sent in hadn’t appeared, this question could be crucial for understanding the current situation at the Unseen Hillock and Ji Feng.

So Fu Qian would never forsake any opportunity to draw people out.

Not to mention the honorable Black Doctor explicitly stated, returning here would assuredly mean meeting the Death Angel.

Ultimately, Akasha appeared instead.

No matter the intention, Fu Qian wouldn’t overlook the possibility that this was part of a team’s divided roles.

"Great, with such a strong knight together, so what’s our upcoming action plan?"

And Akasha seemed quite satisfied with Fu Qian’s phrase, very interested in his ideas.

"Do I need to say?"

Fu Qian tapped lightly on the Mirror Armor, speaking without hesitation.

"Of course, adhering to absurd justice."
