Geoffrey asked Bologue many tis, but regarding everything related to the devil, Bologue himself couldn't rember anything; it was a blank mory. In his own words, he knew he had made a deal with the devil, but as for the specifics, he couldn't recall, as if the mory had been intentionally erased.
"After getting out of prison, he was taken in by kind people... Bologue even talked to about preparing so gifts for Mrs. Doriluna, but then she just passed away."
Geoffrey mumbled to himself.
"This guy is sowhat too unlucky, yes, too unlucky. He wants to embrace the world with love, but nothing good happens to him, and even if it does, it quickly disappears, bringing him even greater pain.
However, none of this has defeated him, at least not yet. Although life is cruel, he still holds on to his principles. For a monster, adhering to principles is indeed an admirable virtue."
"So you want to help him?" Yas asked.
"Yes, I think he's just missing one chance, a chance to prove himself."
Geoffrey pondered for a while, then continued, "Furthermore, isn't this our original intention in selecting debtors? To give these unfortunate souls a chance to repay their debts."
"The 'blessings' carried by debtors give them powerful and treacherous abilities, which are completely independent of the 'alchemy matrix'. Moreover, unlike the demon, the debtor hasn't completely lost his soul and can withstand the hollow hunger within."
Geoffrey continued arguing for Bologue's chance.
"But debtors have long been in contact with the devil, and they will only sink deeper into their debts."
"That's why we need to control them, to keep them rational, isn't it?" Geoffrey said lovingly like an old father.
After a brief silence, Yas's voice was sowhat helpless, "You always do this, whether it's you or Lebius, always like this."
To this, Geoffrey let out a hearty laugh, "Yas, sotis you also need to learn to compromise."
"Compromise with evil?" Yas retorted, but he didn't bother to argue, "Alright, I know, so about the upcoming assessnt..."
"Is it about to start?" Geoffrey asked.
"Yes, the 'cultivation room' is being covered, and once it's fully covered, we can begin the assessnt to determine whether Bologue has the ability to beco one of us."
Yas thought of sothing and asked, "Have you ntioned the assessnt to him?"
"No, he doesn't know about the assessnt," Geoffrey said, "He only knows that the result will co out over the weekend, but he doesn't know the exact ti or the manner."
"I think he'll be shocked," Yas grinned mischievously.
"It's nothing, because handling ergencies is also one of our professional skills, and naturally, it's part of the assessnt."
Saying this, Geoffrey clenched his fist, and a faint light glowed on his arm, under the light was an array dense as circuitry.
"Are you planning to go easy on him? Geoffrey." Yas asked.
"No, but I believe he will definitely pass."
The glow on Geoffrey's arm extinguished, but from the other end of the phone ca a gleeful laugh.
"What's wrong?" Geoffrey asked.
"I just received a notification that the examiner for the assessnt has changed. It will no longer be you or ."
"Who is it then?" Geoffrey was puzzled, Bologue had been under his charge, so logically, the final assessnt should be conducted by him.
"Lebius."
Yas said.
"Lebius is going to personally assess Bologue."
