Chapter 35 Cryptologist

The swindling plan was simple. He wanted to attract the attention of Loki to sell weapons to her. But a direct approach was out of the question. So Judas used Evilus as bait. Cultists who have bricks for brains are easier to fool than the three kings of Loki familia. If he approaches them himself, Loki will surely catch on. It was just that Judas didn't expect Hapheastus to join.

So, when Loki thought he was tricking her, Loki didn't figure out that Judas had already jumped ship and set his target to Hephaestus. But he didn't expect the goddess of the trick to be a treasure sent down by the heavens. The "goods" in the boxes are just a pile of metal and wood with no real use. They all look real and functional, but the inside is empty. The inside was just held together with strings containing his spiritualist. The moment it is opened, the entire "gun" will break down.

'They should arrive soon'

Judas ordered all of the Serpent's Hand to collect his potion materials from the dungeon. What's the point of having subordinates who you don't order around? Of course, they all happily scurry off to the dungeon, especially Old Man Houdini, he was practically happy to kill some monster instead of dealing with paperwork.

[From Paris With Love

Type: Perk

Your missing presence can imbue longing from people you know.]

[Trickster

Type: Perk

Your action becomes more illusive, you can trick others easily through during combat, easily misleading them. 'Is he a warrior? No, a mage? maybe...']

This is the only perk he got from Loki. Trickster is useful. The former... what's the point of this perk? The last thing he wants is to be troubled by those people. Of course, he got a lot of System Points. He also used hundreds of millions of valis to buy monster crystals to exchange for the system. He experimented with it a bit since it was his first time exchanging monster crystals and he was swimming in valis, he wanted to see if higher-quality monster crystals matter. It did, but not by much. So he bought a boss monster crystals for the high price of 10 million valis each. The store owner was practically sweating after hearing his order. One Boss Monster Crystal is only worth 10 points. Ten infant dragon crystals are only worth 3 points. A hundred minotaur crystals are only worth 2 points. 

Finally, he could see the figure of the two giants. It's not too difficult because almost everyone is short in Orario. These two giants of course caught the looks of the public. Soon the two stood next to his table. The others should have returned to their work.

"Boss, wiz gotz wot yer wanted!" The two said.

"Good job. Let's go back to the saloon." 

"Boss, iz comin back wiz us!?"

"Yeah, I need to prepare something, you need to prepare too, the Saloon will be soon busy. Old Houdini is busy, and so is Jack and Vi. But later, you'll meet some new friends. I'm sure The Empress will like you two."

"New friends!? Hooray!"

The two giant barbarians happily followed. Serpent's Hand's next mission will soon come. Judas played with three golden Keys. These keys are called "Key of Caves", "Town Order" "Manor Of Madness"

Judas looked at his new abilities and began thinking. He immediately planned where to put the town. He bought a map of the surrounding Orario and found the ideal place, it was Selio Forest in the East and very near to the Alv Mountains. Such a place is perfect for a town, it even has rivers and natural water resources.

'System, is it possible to make a setting for the town?'

[Host will need to provide additional points]

Judas lips curled into a smile. With this, his plan has been built. He took out a pen and began writing the history of Silent Hill town, with his mind being enhanced by a Cryptologist and his past life memories.

"Hmmm?"

Judas began thinking about his past life. For some reason, it was blurry. He doesn't know why, but it seems his memory is fragmented, and pieces are missing. He can clearly remember basic knowledge, but his life is fragmented, he only noticed it now thanks to the enhancement of advancing to Sequences 7. Then he noticed, that some of his memories were slowly disintegrating into messy blurriness.

"I'm losing my memories? What the hell?"

A feeling of dread occurred to Judas. 

"What could be the cause?"

He began decrypting and trying to find out the root cause and came to one conclusion.

"It was that little devil! Wait! What little devil!? There was a little devil!?"

He just remembered now, he had a little devil! He ran outside to find the little devil.

"Where did that little devil go!?"

Judas calmed down a bit, and realized, the little devil disappeared somewhere. The little devil is causing Judas to lose his memories, he needs to do something about it.

"I'll find that little bastard after I'm done!"

Judas went back in, he tried decryption on the little devil but he just couldn't remember what it looked like, even if he did, his decryption wasn't working. He immediately looked at the [Town Order] to see its decryption.

[Town Order

Town Order will magically create a town that has a population of 50,000. A quarter of which are beyonder of varying strengths, 6 of which are demigods and one saint]
