Although he was slightly out of control due to the sudden surge of emotions in his heart, as a reliable adult, Lin Ruo quickly stabilized his emotions after each utterance of "There won't be a next time."
He looked at Sasrir again, recalling the current state of the other party as conveyed by Klein, and couldn't help but ask, "What is your current state?"
Sasrir still smiled gently and said, "Because of the gift you gave me, I am probably some kind of Spirit Body now. I haven't encountered an existence in my current state before, so it's hard to define, but it's not too bad."
"Hmm..." Lin Ruo stroked his chin. He wasn't surprised by the Spirit Body Sasrir mentioned, and the phrase "bestow" confirmed that Sasrir's forced retention was indeed due to him.
It's just a pity that Lin Ruo couldn't recall any memories regarding this, so he didn't know what state Sasrir was in.
Sasrir glanced at him and said, "It seems that the little fellow holding the cross has already told you about my state."
"Otherwise, how could I pull your historical projection so timely at the first moment?" Lin Ruo retorted, "Don't you also know that guy can contact me?"
Sasrir smiled gently, his gaze falling on Klein, who had been quietly watching the show beside him. He seemed to be observing Klein, but his half-closed eyes made it impossible to see the expression in his eyes. After several seconds, he spoke:
"Aren't you going to introduce him? Is this your friend?"
"Klein, my student. Of course, it's fine to call him a friend too," Lin Ruo replied.
"Hello, Your Eminence Sasrir, I am Klein Moretti." Klein, who had been watching the show on the side, feeling unable to interject into their conversation, was startled when he was suddenly called. He immediately stood up and bowed, introducing himself at the same time.
"Hello, Klein, I am very glad Lin Ruo has a student like you." Sasrir smiled gently at Klein, but unlike when he faced Lin Ruo, this smile seemed much more formal.
He then looked at Lin Ruo and said, "Does Amon know about him?"
Why bring up that troublesome child for no reason... Lin Ruo's smile stiffened, but he still tried his best not to let it drop, saying, "He doesn't know... Actually, in my current state, it's not suitable to contact him, you understand."
Sasrir seemed to be stunned for a moment, then said somewhat helplessly, "I told you long ago not to always beat him. See, now you're getting your comeuppance."
Apparently, as one of Lin Ruo's 'old fathers,' Sasrir was also very proficient in using various modern terms.
"Is that comeuppance? If there's any comeuppance, it should be that troublesome child Amon getting it. What does comeuppance have to do with a good person like me?" Although he was incredibly timid towards Amon in his heart, this clearly didn't hinder Lin Ruo's verbal output.
"Besides, even if I were a good godfather back then, would Amon not mess with me? Impossible, you think too highly of that troublesome child."
Sasrir seemed somewhat speechless. He was silent for several seconds before replying, "I will not disclose your affairs or your student's affairs to Amon, nor will I participate in the disputes between you... Your matters, you should resolve them yourselves."
"That's enough." Lin Ruo, of course, understood that the dispute Sasrir mentioned should also include the struggle for the Lord of the Mysteries.
Clearly, Sasrir could discern the anomaly on Klein.
This was not surprising. After all, Sasrir was once a King of Angels, and a Clone of the the City of Silver's Creator, closely related to the Chaos Sea, which is also a type of Above the Sequence Beyonder characteristic. Even if his current state was not quite right, it was normal for him to see that Klein had a connection with the Sefirah Castle.
It was even more normal for the other party to choose not to interfere. After all, for Sasrir, both Amon and Lin Ruo were closely related existences. Since both sides were equally important, not interfering and letting them resolve it themselves was naturally the best outcome.
"Those people in the City of Silver... what do you plan to do?" Sasrir suddenly asked.
Lin Ruo was startled, and suddenly felt a strange sense of guilt. After all, the City of Silver used to believe in the Ancient Sun God, but now Lin Ruo intended to make such people believe in the The Fool, which was completely poaching followers.
"Cough..." At this point, Lin Ruo coughed softly. Under Sasrir's gentle and calm gaze, he couldn't help but pick up his cup and take a sip of tea before saying:
"My student and I will save them and make them Klein's future believers, his anchors after he advances to Angel, and perhaps my anchors as well."
Although he felt a little guilty, Lin Ruo's words were very firm.
After all, proselytizing is not easy. In this era, faith has long been divided among the Seven Deities and various evil gods. If they were ordinary Beyonders, they could choose to secretly proselytize in the dark, accumulate believers over time, or join a large power and be directly written as an Angel under a certain deity, sharing a wave of anchors.
But who made Klein's advancement like a rocket? With his advancement speed, normal proselytizing wouldn't work, and he couldn't go the reliance route. To obtain enough anchors when advancing to Angel, he naturally had to take an unconventional path.
As long as the City of Silver and Moon City are saved, given the simple folk customs of these two places, Klein can gain a stable group of anchors in minutes, and can also use these people as a starting point to spread the The Fool's faith and gain more anchors. It can be said to be the best method.
As for whether he himself needed anchors? To be honest, Lin Ruo wasn't sure about this, but considering that mysterious ritual, and the fact that he already regarded Klein as an anchor, Lin Ruo felt that when promoting the The Fool, he could also casually promote himself, allowing the people of the City of Silver to also become his anchors.
Anyway, this doesn't conflict, just as the Evernight Goddess's believers can be both the Evernight Goddess's anchors and also the anchors for the Angel under the Evernight Goddess.
The only flaw is probably that this is poaching... But the Ancient Sun God has already fallen, and the City of Silver has been left in the Forsaken Land of the Gods for so many years without anyone caring for it. It can be completely regarded as ownerless lambs. Is it too much to trick them into believing in the The Fool?
After all, since you don't care about them anymore, you can't forbid them from changing their faith, right?
Thinking this, Lin Ruo suddenly felt righteous.
"I understand." Sasrir nodded. He looked at Lin Ruo, paused, and then said, "To be honest, I don't quite understand the current situation, after all, I've been sleeping for too long. But no matter what, whenever you need me, you can come to me for help. I am your elder brother, and this will not change with time."
Saying this, he smiled again and said, "Of course, beating Amon is out of the question. My identity isn't suitable for beating him."
"Why isn't it suitable? It's only right for a father to beat his son." Lin Ruo raised an eyebrow and said righteously.
Sasrir's smile immediately became somewhat helpless.
Lin Ruo didn't really intend to make Sasrir difficult in this regard. He just thought of something afterward, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Then can I ask you to help me with various documents in the future?"
As the Vice Sovereign of Heaven, Sasrir was excellent at handling various affairs in the past. Although times have changed, who says he can't continue to do related work?
Lin Ruo believed in Sasrir's learning ability. As a King of Angels and a Clone of the Ancient Sun God, as long as he learned and adapted a little, the other party would surely become the best tool again.
Excellent!
Sasrir's smile stiffened, "Huh?"
