Shepherd Tantra

Chapter 1012 Crazy Deer
After having a pleasant meal, the Lord of Scales and Feathers disappeared silently again.

It is said that he is always like this.

As the founder of the two extraordinary professions of hunter and assassin, the Lord of Scales and Feathers is the best stealth fighter in the world. At least in the dream world, he can appear at any time and any place, just like a moth quietly appearing in an absolutely closed space - not by crossing the door, but "already in it from the beginning".

Unfortunately, those warriors have forgotten that the Lord of Scales and Feathers had ever been here.

When the Lord of Scales and Feathers left, he stole these people's "memories of themselves". In their memories, the Lord of Scales and Feathers did not even appear at the banquet from beginning to end.

After eating and drinking, Ying Tiansi began to select the lucky warrior for tonight.

Amid the noise of lamentations and congratulations, the three soldiers who had dined with her were naturally chosen as the lucky ones for the night.

However, before enjoying the evening, Ying Tiansi sent Aiwas and Yasen out of the castle.

She stood under the tree and placed Aiwass and Yassen on the treetop, so that their heads were almost level.

Vignes changed back to his traveling form, transformed into a crow, and landed on the antlers on Aiwas's head. The antlers had now become large enough to look like tree branches, perfect for a crow to rest on.

While waiting for the Moon Deer, Yasen asked Aiwass and Ying Tiansi curiously: "What kind of deer is the Moon Deer?"

This seems to be some kind of common sense in the dream world.

At least when Aiwass and Ying Tiansi were talking, they seemed very natural and did not have any questions or explanations. This made Yasen swallow his doubts back into his stomach.

As a thief who cares about his reputation, he cannot accept showing his ignorance in public.

Now there are only gods and acquaintances here, and it is a well-known environment. So he finally asked seriously: "Is it some kind of... public transportation in the dream world?"

"That's right."

Ying Tiansi laughed heartily and said, "You'll understand once you've sat on it once."

Aiwass put it succinctly: "A crazy deer."

"crazy……?"

"Yes."

Aiwass looked back at Arsen and patiently explained to the poorly educated thief, "In the Elvish language, the root of the word 'madness' is the moon. The original meaning of the word 'madman' is 'the one who returns to the moon'. It also means a sleepwalker. Because in the beginning, when people went crazy, they would want to go to the moon.

"If people sleep under the moonlight, they will go crazy when they wake up. The brighter the moonlight, the more likely it is to make people restless and awaken their inner beastly desires. This is why people originally wrapped themselves up when they slept. Just like a werewolf will turn into a giant wolf with uncontrollable behavior under the moonlight."

"...What's that for?"

Yasen's expression turned serious, as if he had thought of something.

"Because of the remnants of the Beast."

The person who answered this question unexpectedly was Ying Tiansi.

She chuckled and gathered her long dark red hair behind her.

Aiwass further explained: "The Moon God and the Beast God are two sides of the same coin. The opposite of the path of love is the path of beasts. The beasts that were tamed by love in the past were not completely converted... because 'love' will gradually fade and deteriorate.

"In addition to driving people crazy, the full moon can also make lovers fall in love or make it easier to have children. This is an influence from the path of love."

"...The Moon Children hunt during the full moon for similar reasons?"

Yasen seemed to understand: "So that's how it is..."

"More than that," Aiwass shook his head. "In alchemy, the metal that represents the moon is silver. Therefore, silver is the 'disenchantment of the moon', so silver weapons can cause sufficient and effective damage to the children of the moon and werewolves. This is not only because silver has the property of purification, but also because they are born from the moon. Although silver represents the moon, it means that the power of the moon is approaching balance. In other words, it smooths out the 'excess moon'...

"And the Moon Deer is a kind of 'beast' related to 'silver'. Only those who practice the Path of Love who understand the mysteries of the moon can summon them. It is one of the most useful means of transportation in the dream world... You can even remove the 'one of'."

As Aiwass was speaking, an extremely bright moonlight suddenly struck in front of them—

The Kingdom of Shadows is clearly a dark place without sun or moon.

At this time, the pure moonlight descended on this place, and even Yasen couldn't help but cover his eyes.

But when he loosened his hands, he saw a huge creature that frightened him extremely - it was a giant deer that was more than three meters above the ground just in its "sitting position".

Its entire body was glowing with the dim white moonlight, which was suppressed to only a thin layer in the Kingdom of Shadows, but it made its jade body seem almost transparent.

—but it didn’t seem quite a deer.

Compared to a deer, its body is fuller and fatter, its limbs are too thin, it has deer ears, but its face is a bit like a wolf - it has very obvious and even somewhat ferocious canine fangs, and vertical pupils like a wolf, which belong to a hunter.

Yasen felt that it was more like some kind of giant deer.

It has crescent-shaped antlers on its head.

The material of the antlers was very special—it was silver that was as shiny as a mirror.

Rather than two curved horns, it looked more like two curved silver daggers were inserted into its brain. However, considering its size, it was more like some kind of giant sword.

After it landed, it lowered its head slightly, allowing Aiwass and Yasen to climb up more easily.

"Dear Candle Master, where are we going to travel?"

Yuelu suddenly spoke, and a sharp and piercing voice was heard.

It was a voice like that of a clown or a jester.

"I……"

Arsen responded with a syllable subconsciously, then suddenly realized something and looked at Aiwass for help.

"To the Hall of Mirrors."

Aiwass answered without hesitation.

That is where the Twin Mirrors, the Drama God and the Song God are.

This is also why Aiwass did not ask his boss, "If Sherlock is in the realm of the Path of Beauty, where exactly would he be" - because in the Path of Beauty, except for the butterfly celestial being who is not very sociable and is adaptable to both the Path of Adaptation and the Path of Love, the other two celestial beings live with the twin mirrors.

In other words, there is actually only one realm of the Path of Beauty—the Hall of Mirrors.

But after hearing the destination, Yuelu did not set off.

It still kept its head down, motionless.

And Aiwass used his elbow to gently nudge Arsen, who was sitting behind him.

"……This is?"

Yassen was confused for a moment.

"Pay the fare," Aiwass said with a smile, "and tell me a secret of yours. The more detailed it is, the more you don't want others to hear it... the more private, shameful, and sinful the secret is, the better."

"…What? Why?"

Yasen opened his eyes wide in disbelief, but soon realized: "Is this the fare? Tell me a secret?"

"of course."

Aiwass said confidently: "You don't want to hear my secret, Yassen. Especially if this secret can embarrass me... I think you don't want to hear it even more."

……really.

Yassen nodded in his heart.

It was just a matter of shame, so there was no need to fight desperately. Even though Aiwass was no longer the Pope, he was still a powerful transcendent who could defeat the Fallen Angels. From what he had said before, he was going to defeat the Blood Angels!

If I accidentally found out about the shameful secrets hidden by this big shot...

Yassen couldn't help but shudder.
