Aaron smiled, lifted the restriction, and comforted Evelyn, feeling the spirituality consumed and the effect of the Prohibition in his heart.
"For targets lower in Sequence than me, the Edict's effect and consumption are quite good, and even for those of the same rank, it has a strong restrictive effect."
"The inescapable nature of the Execution is quite interesting…"
Aaron recalled the Execution ability he had gained, and vaguely thought of the Hunter Pathway Sequence 5 Reaper's ability.
As the Reaper's most powerful and fundamental ability, "Weakness Attack" can discover the target's weak points, or areas of weak defense, from a mystical perspective, and provide corresponding precision, thereby causing terrifying, fatal damage beyond the normal.
No matter where it hits the target, it is equivalent to a weakness attack, and if it truly hits a genuine weak point, then for enemies whose defense is not too strong, it can be a one-hit kill.
Even for targets skilled in defense, it can be resolved within three hits, including Guardians, but the premise is that the interval between the three hits cannot be too long, preferably no more than 5 seconds.
The Judge's Execution's locking ability combined with the Reaper's weakness attack is enough to deal with most difficulties and dangers below demigods.
"It seems I'll have to find an opportunity to get a Mystical Item of the Reaper in the future…" Putting away his racing thoughts, Aaron muttered to himself, then put on the Death Mask, his face changing to Lucivide Joseph before opening the Spirit World traversal.

Backlund, Cherwood Borough, 43 Sifiel Street.
Fors, looking a bit haggard, wore a cream-colored, ruffled, high-collared long dress, her brown hair slightly curled and draped, her light blue eyes revealing anxiety and unease.
Ever since her first experience with the Full Moon Whispers last night, Fors couldn't help but tremble all over whenever she recalled the heart-wrenching, soul-piercing pain.
She held a lady's cigarette in her right hand and lay stiffly on the sofa like a fish out of water, with many empty wine bottles and cigarette butts scattered around the sofa.
Xio, whose face was also haggard and eyes a bit swollen, sat opposite Fors, not stopping her from smoking and drinking as usual.
Seeing her friend's pain last night, Xio's heart was filled with guilt and self-reproach, a sentence constantly repeating in her mind:
"It's all because you're not strong enough, causing your best friend to contract the Full Moon Whispers…."
Suddenly, a knock on the door interrupted Xio's self-reproach, and also made Fors, who was slumped on the sofa, jolt, but then the two exchanged glances, both seeing surprise in each other's eyes.
Xio hurriedly went to the door and opened it, indeed seeing Mr. Lucivide, who maintained a cold expression.
Xio hurriedly pulled Fors over and stammered:
"Last night, during the Blood Moon, Fors, she, she heard the Full Moon Whispers… I am willing to give all my contributions to Fors, please tell us the method to dispel the Full Moon Whispers?"
Aaron glanced at the two, who looked nervous and hopeful, walked into the room, casually closed the door, and then lightly coughed, slowly speaking:
"Capim's case is almost over. You two should not participate in the investigation of this matter recently."
"But the contributions you two made last time, even combined, are far from enough to exchange for the method to completely dispel the Full Moon Whispers."
Looking at Fors, who was a little disappointed and looked miserable, Aaron added:
"You don't have to worry too much. Yesterday was the Blood Moon night, which is an enhanced version of the full moon, so the Full Moon Whispers were so strong."
"Normal Full Moon Whispers usually only last three or four minutes, and they will all be less severe than yesterday. You are just starting to be affected, it won't be that serious."
Saying that, Aaron took out five bottles of potion and 390 pounds in cash from his In arms, placing them in front of Fors, whose complexion had improved greatly.
"This is your reward for this mission, a total of 400 pounds."
"And the potions are specially formulated by an Apothecary, which can help alleviate the effects you experience during the Full Moon Whispers, at 2 pounds per bottle."
Upon hearing about the 400-pound bounty and receiving potions that could alleviate her pain, a smile finally appeared on Fors's face, but when she heard that a bottle of potion cost two pounds, she couldn't help but show a bitter expression, though she dared not bargain aloud.
Aaron turned to look at Xio, who had visibly relaxed, and after a moment of thought, said:
"You can choose between two rewards: one is to directly take 400 pounds in cash, and the other is to exchange for the Sequence 8 Arbiter's potion formula."
Xio was somewhat excited at the news. Her father had not left behind subsequent potion formulas, and during her time in Backlund, Xio had been searching for these formulas but had found nothing.
Recalling her original intention for coming to Backlund and the self-reproach of being unable to protect her friend, Xio unhesitatingly chose the latter option.
Aaron nodded, found a piece of paper on the table, picked up a pen, and began to write, then showed the paper to Xio.
"Sequence 8 Sheriff:
"Main ingredients: A pair of Fear Demon Worm eyes, the right paw of a Silver-White Battle Bear."
"Supplementary ingredients: 3 drops of Golden Mandrake juice, 10 milliliters of Hallucination Grass essential oil."
After confirming that Xio had memorized the potion formula, Aaron put away the paper with the formula written on it, declined their farewells, and left the room alone.
After activating Spirit World Travel at a certain corner, Aaron returned to the East Tucker Family villa.
Thinking of tonight's Chaos Council, and how last time, out of consideration for Bernadette, he had not pulled Sharron directly above the dark golden mist, but only transmitted an image, Aaron felt it was necessary to pull Sharron up for a meeting in advance.
With this thought, Aaron quickly walked to the partition, skillfully set up the ritual, and as his consciousness sank, he passed through layers of dark golden mist and arrived at the throne of the magnificent Temple.
With a slight thought, he incorporated the black emperor card into his body. The boundless dark golden mist seemed to gather into waves, forming a strong wind.
A majestic armor formed on Aaron's body, a paint black crown appeared above his head, and a matching long cloak formed behind him. Lines imbued with divinity also emerged on the armor.
Feeling the surging power within him, Aaron nodded in satisfaction, and remotely tapped the prayer light point corresponding to Sharron. That cluster of prayer light immediately burst open, and the light flowed like water.
Aaron's spirituality surged forth, pouring into the dark golden light flowing like water, and he quite easily established a mysterious and stable connection.
-----------------
Caesar Port, Southern Continent, in a dim room, candlelight flickered.
Sharron, dressed in an intricate and elegant black Gothic court gown and wearing a small black soft hat, was carefully reading an ancient book bound with thick parchment.
The book's hard cover was deep black, with two lines of Hermes written in crimson on it:
"Book of Secrets."
"Klarman."
