FVN Chapter 369: Du Wei is simply a saint
Chapter 369: Du Wei is simply a saint
In the afternoon.
Inside the psychological consulting clinic.
Du Wei sat on the sofa, his right hand holding a pencil as he wrote on a piece of paper.
On the side table next to him were his belongings.
A lighter, a mask, a Joker Card with only one wish left, a silver coin representing good and bad luck, a flintlock gun, a Black Umbrella with punctured canopy, an envelope.
...
And an Ebony Cross necklace and a pair of white gloves.
This necklace was originally worn around Du Wei’s neck to relieve the risk of Evil Spirit Transformation, but he had now taken it off.
The white gloves, on the other hand, were given to him by Bishop Slivka and Bishop Jon while dealing with that door in Esselgreen’s basement.
They could block the influence of certain evil entities, but for Du Wei, they weren’t very useful.
At this moment.
Du Wei stopped writing and listed the following information on the paper.
[Mark Evil Spirit: Shadow, Bus, Annabelle, urgent need to recruit new members to fill ranks]
[Pending cases: Evil Spirit Du Wei, Antique Clock]
The item “Evil Spirit Du Wei” had a circle drawn around it, indicating it was the priority, with the Antique Clock coming afterwards.
After all, dealing with Evil Spirit Du Wei was the top priority at this stage.
Knock, knock...
Du Wei put the paper down, his fingers tapping non-stop on the side table.
He was now pondering on how to deal with Evil Spirit Du Wei.
A frontal confrontation was out of the question.
Therefore, he had to approach it from other angles.
“It’s now in Veda Sect’s headquarters, resolving it there is certainly the best, and indeed the only, solution,” he said.
“Otherwise, if the people from Veda Sect come looking for me, things will only become more troublesome.”
“After all, with it around, it is harder for people from Veda Sect to make the same mistakes as before.”
Du Wei said this coldly.
Evil Spirit Du Wei and his consciousness, personality, and thought patterns were exactly the same; whatever he could think of, the Evil Spirit could too. ṟΆNôʙЕS
Even if they tried to outmaneuver each other, neither could gain an advantage.
Most importantly, there were just too many people in Veda Sect...
Plus, with Evil Spirit Du Wei, it was almost an unsolvable situation.
“So I have to make the first move, but the plan must be foolproof, otherwise the chances of success are too small,” he said.
Du Wei had previously considered a rough method to deal with Evil Spirit Du Wei.
That was to become Evil Spirit Du Wei himself, letting Evil Spirit Du Wei become him, and then reclaim his body in the guise of Evil Spirit Du Wei.
But exactly how to achieve this, he had no clear idea at the moment.
Du Wei pressed the answer button.
“Good afternoon, Mrs. Senna.”
He started with a greeting.
Then he heard Mrs. Senna clear her throat on the other end and say, “Good afternoon, Mr. Du Wei, the Church has been informed of what happened in New York.”
“What’s the situation with the hunter who defected from the Dusk Bell Church?”
She was referring to Hannibal.
Du Wei spoke in a somewhat strange tone, “You might not believe it, but he got struck dead by lightning.”
Cough cough...
Mrs. Senna, apparently mid-drink, coughed violently.
After a while, she responded in disbelief, “Struck dead by lightning? How is that possible? I know he was after you. If you killed him, just say so. We’ll help you cover up the truth.”
Du Wei helplessly said, “I did indeed make a move against him, but he truly was killed by lightning.”
The scene where Hannibal was struck dead by lightning was just too fantastical.
Claiming it was his own doing might stir up some commotion; it was better to disassociate himself from the matter.
Mrs. Senna had always thought very highly of Du Wei.
After all, in the eyes of the Church, there was no exorcist with more sense of responsibility and fearlessness of evil than Du Wei.
He always led by example in the face of danger.
He was the epitome of a saint.
So, Mrs. Senna said with a headache, “If he was struck dead by lightning, then let it be. Perhaps it was God’s will to punish him.”
“By the way, the Church might assign you some tasks, but it seems you have just dealt with an Evil Spirit incident and saved Tony...”
“Uh... if you need to rest, I can talk to the Church and have them postpone some of the less urgent tasks.”
Upon hearing this.
Du Wei raised an eyebrow, just as he was thinking about marking more Evil Spirits, the Church had come to him.
What a stroke of luck...
However, he still asked, “Do the tasks involve dealing with Evil Spirits?”
Mrs. Senna replied, “There are some involving Evil Spirits, but considering that you have been in contact with them too many times recently, the Church will probably assign you to rear tasks, like mentoring some exorcists, or dealing with some internal Church matters.”
“This will help with your promotion. You should understand...”
Du Wei said seriously, “Mrs. Senna, as an exorcist, it’s my duty to fight against Evil Spirits. Your offer is an insult to me.”
Mrs. Senna quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, Mr. Du Wei, I know you’re very responsible, but this is for your own good. Constantly dealing with Evil Spirits will take a toll on you.”
Du Wei said gravely, “As long as there are Evil Spirits in this world, I will not retreat to a background job. My health is absolutely fine.”
Mrs. Senna was moved, “The next time there’s an internal promotion in the Church, you’ll definitely become a bishop, and at that time, I will also hand over the position of head of the Tribunal to you.”
“Mr. Du Wei, I must say, you are the noblest exorcist I have ever seen.”
