You call this the mastermind?

A. Krenzlein Belfitt.

Under the gloomy clouds, a black magic wand like bone slowly scratched out this name on the dry surface.

After putting down the magic wand, Melen, who was sitting cross-legged here, had a thoughtful expression.

This is not someone else's name, but a brand new name.

Or it can be said that this is Melen's name.

It comes from the destiny obtained after changing Alyssa's fate.

Why can using this destiny exchange for a name for yourself?

He can't be sure, but it seems to be related to the other party's special bloodline.

Melen didn't know what Alyssa's bloodline was like before, but now he has some guesses.

Because he can understand this name.

"A means fear in ancient Dune language, Krenzlein means black flame, and Belfitt seems to represent impulsive desire..."

There is knowledge related to this language in the inheritance of the leader of the Dawn Knights, but it is very vague.

Melen has been thinking about it when he has free time during this period, and now he can barely find the specific meanings of these words from those memories.

But this is not the point.

The point is that this language called Dune has another name.

Demon language.

Demons are completely different from devils, but they have one thing in common, which is that they are basically active in the era of magic tide.

Now, they have all disappeared as the magic tide fades.

However, at the moment, Melen was given a demon name by fate.

But he is not a demon, so this seems very strange.

Because the name of the demon, or the real name of the demon, is completely different from ordinary names-

Normal names have special meanings to wizards.

When Melen joined the Mixed Blood Association, the old examiner made up a name for him, Egg Wilson.

The reason for doing this is that using a fake name can avoid being targeted by some curses or even possession.

Because names can be used as a medium for casting black magic, if a wizard uses a fake name, he can be more defensive against such things.

But in fact, this defensive effect is not very obvious, because the fake name will become a real name if it is called too many times.

To put it bluntly, a name is just a code name. No matter how it is changed, as long as the code name points to a certain person, it doesn't matter whether it is a real name or a pseudonym.

But the real name of the devil is not a name like this code name.

According to the inherited memory of the leader of the Knights, each devil has its unique real name.

With this real name, people can cooperate with the ritual to sacrifice their lives to the devil, and gain power and even let the devil come.

Melen tried to call his own name before, and he felt a special touch from the bottom of his heart.

It was as if someone was calling him.

So he thought that if he studied demonology in depth, he should be able to pretend to be a devil, and then recruit believers to cheat for food and drink.

But if it was just like this, Melen would not think that he could not grasp this name.

The "coordinates" that can be used as sacrifices are just one of the functions of the devil's real name.

It also has another function, which is to act as a medium for the devil to absorb the corresponding "evil".

The Knight Commander's inherited memory mentioned that demons, high-level beings, have their own "evil".

Killing, forcing, stealing, abuse...

Before the ancient demon tide faded, they were very keen to spread and execute the evil they mastered in the human world, because this could give them power.

The way of spreading can be the demons themselves doing such things, or the apostles who believe in demons can serve and serve their masters.

Melen felt that this seemed to be no different from the so-called belief in God.

The gods rely on spreading faith to gain power. This kind of thing he has not only seen a lot in the online articles of his previous life, but also heard of in this world.

Those weak chicken gods hunted and even controlled by the church make a living by this.

And the medium for them to absorb faith is their divine name.

So Melen believes that he who has the real name of the demon can also use this name as a medium to absorb the power of evil.

As long as he spreads it.

This is not the point.

The point is that in the memory of the Knight Commander, each demon has many different false names. And they are not stingy with fake names to spread their evil.

This seems to mean that fake names will not cover up their true identities, nor will it affect their absorption of the power of "faith".

So Melen has been thinking about a question during this period.

That is, are the false propaganda he did in the newspaper before considered a kind of evil spread?

Fraud, manipulation of people's hearts, playing with political correctness, etc., obviously can't be said to be a good behavior, right?

If this is evil, then why didn't I feel any power being sucked in?

Is this guess wrong?

Or is it that non-demons cannot absorb that kind of power?

Or, only by doing actions that match the meaning of the real name can the corresponding power be absorbed?

Melen is not sure about this.

But among the many ideas in his mind, there is a guess that makes him a little uneasy.

That is, the place where he is located isolates those invisible "evil".

Just like when Mrs. Chelsea's thoughts were isolated outside, it was only by Mellen's dirty tricks that she was able to come here successfully...

Normally, the possibility of this guess is not high, at least not compared to other guesses.

But there is a phenomenon that makes Mellen more suspicious of this possibility.

That is, in the past few days, every time he ran to possess the nun, or every time his thoughts left this unique world.

He could hear waves of trivial voices from the bottom of his heart.

It was as if many people were discussing something, and it was constantly transmitted to Mellen through some medium.

Listening carefully, he even heard the name "Egg Wilson".

This phenomenon is obviously abnormal, but nothing else happened.

Mellen was a little uneasy because of this.

He seriously doubted whether his real body would encounter any inexplicable changes when he left this special world?

Even without leaving this world, when the nun ran in, would the changes "rush" in with it?

"Perhaps the so-called far-reaching influence that fate predicted before did not refer to my ability to possess others, but fell on the real name of this demon?"

When crossing out the name on the surface, this thought flashed through Melen's mind.

He actually didn't like the unknown, because he felt that he already had enough capital and ability to fight for everything he wanted in this world.

In this case, all unexpected mutations would bring uncertainty to his future.

But on the other hand, Melen felt that if there were really mutations next, it might not be a bad thing for him.

Because fate did not reveal bad things, and when using Alyssa's fate, he added a lucky buff to himself.

Although the effect of that buff was short-lived, at least for him at that time, getting this real name should be a very lucky thing, right?

"Uncle, uncle..."

When he thought of this, a weak greeting suddenly came from the side, interrupting Melen's meditation.

"Are you hungry or thirsty?"

Melen, who was sitting cross-legged, asked without raising his head.

There were only two people in this place, so even if you didn't listen to the voice, there couldn't be anyone else who came to find him except the teacher's daughter.

"Neither, neither..."

The voice answered.

For some reason, her voice seemed particularly nervous.

So Melen looked up at the other party and found that the blonde girl standing next to him was looking very nervous at the moment.

When her eyes looked at Melen, they were full of some inexplicable emotions.

"Can't you sleep and want to tell some little secrets again?"

Merlen asked half-jokingly.

They have been together for a long time, so he is not afraid that this little joke will really offend the other party.

However, the development of things is a bit unexpected.

After hearing Melen's words, the girl was not shy, but took a deep breath.

Then, as if she had mustered up her courage, she looked at Melen with a nervous but firm expression.

"Uncle, what is your relationship with Ilúvatar?"
