It wasn't until the Conceptualization Angel circled around the parchment that he saw Sastiel behind the desk, reading a document.
"What's wrong? Is there something you need?" Sastiel instinctively offered a gentle smile. He raised his head, paused when he saw who it was, and looked somewhat puzzled.
Why would Adam come to him?
The Conceptualization Angel didn't delay at all, recounting the events that had just transpired. Finally, he hesitated for a second, but still honestly said, "Besides all that, Mr. Lucifer also asked me to ask when you plan to jump ship."
Sastiel was taken aback for a moment, then smiled wryly, saying, "He really is persistent."
Sastiel shook his head, not saying anything more about being poached, but instead looked at the Conceptualization Angel and asked, "How do you feel now? That mask… do you think it can succeed?"
"I'm not sure," the Conceptualization Angel replied, shaking his head. Then he added, "But it has indeed given me some inspiration. Even if we really can't change history, perhaps we can make some efforts to interfere with the future."
The 'interfere with the future' here naturally didn't refer to interfering with the future after being summoned to it, but rather to making some arrangements to change some things in the future of Lucifer's era.
"What do you want to do?" Sastiel asked, looking at him.
"Based on the characteristics of this mask, I will perform deep self-hypnosis…" The Conceptualization Angel unhurriedly explained his plan. In short, it was to actively use the various abilities of the Spectator pathway to amplify his own emotions on a psychological level to match the effect of the mask, thereby achieving the goal of retaining a part of his ego during the fusion in the future.
"I myself am the most powerful Spectator, and now I still possess humanity, coupled with the power of this mask, the success rate will be very high." The Conceptualization Angel smiled as he said this, adding, "Of course, if the Lord is willing to assist me, the success rate might be even higher."
"I will notify the Lord to return as soon as possible." Sastiel nodded, expressing his approval of the plan. He then thought of something and hesitated, looking at the Conceptualization Angel, saying:
"The future Adam once mentioned this kind of mask to the Lord. When a certain emotion amplified by the mask reaches a certain level, the wearer will become Lucifer's puppet, but it seems they can break free through willpower."
Even though they were both incarnations of the Lord, because of the difference in authority and status, the information they knew was also different. After all, Sastiel's and Adam's memories were not shared unless deliberately exchanged.
As for why he specifically reminded him of this matter—nonsense, even though the Creator faction and Roland were close allies, in reality, both sides were wary of each other for various reasons. This wariness didn't prevent them from cooperating, but it was always necessary to maintain a degree of vigilance when necessary.
Upon hearing this, the Conceptualization Angel looked at Sastiel, then offered a very youthful smile, saying, "Thank you for the reminder. Don't worry, I still have some confidence in my own will. Moreover…"
The Conceptualization Angel paused here, his tone becoming somber as he looked at Sastiel and softly said, "What difference is there between the future me and a puppet of divinity?"
Sastiel was silent. He sighed and said, "That's right, there really isn't much difference between a robot and a puppet."
"So be happy, Sastiel. If this plan can succeed, I might be able to regain consciousness earlier than the future you," the Conceptualization Angel said, smiling at Sastiel.
"I look forward to it," Sastiel replied, also offering a gentle smile.
…
Adam watched as the Conceptualization Angel of the past disappeared, not showing any sign of loss. He was still his usual indifferent self.
But in the next second, as if with a delayed reaction, Adam's expression finally changed, seeming painful and also confused. Adam's body swayed, causing him to almost subconsciously reach out and grab the chair beside him, while his other hand rose to cover his face, making it impossible to see his expression.
Clearly, Adam's reaction this time was much greater than Azik's reaction after the Death Consul wore the mask back last time.
This was not surprising. Among the "two" individuals, the Death Consul and Azik, the Death Consul was the one with more indifferent emotions, while Azik was quite full of humanity. Precisely because of this, after the emotions accumulated by the Death Consul wearing the mask acted on Azik, the effect didn't seem very obvious. It was like someone who could originally score 80 points; even if they added 5 more points, they would still be the same.
But the samples of Adam and the Conceptualization Angel were exactly the opposite of them. Adam was the one with indifferent humanity, while the Conceptualization Angel's humanity was much richer. In addition, with the various efforts that the Conceptualization Angel had made to maximize the mask's effect, it was not surprising to have this kind of reaction.
Roland looked at Adam with interest. Through the gaps between his fingers, he could see that Adam's golden eyes sometimes flashed with indifference, and sometimes showed the gentleness that had once appeared in the Conceptualization Angel's eyes. Two similar but different individuals seemed to be undergoing some degree of fusion at this moment.
Without a doubt, the humanity that once belonged to the Conceptualization Angel had been revived in Adam's body at this moment. It was hard to say exactly how much had been revived, but at least the humanity that Adam possessed at this moment was no longer 0.
"Mr. Adam, are you alright?" Klein looked at Adam's performance, which was completely like a split personality, hesitated, and still asked with some concern.
Mainly because split personality is more dangerous in the extraordinary realm, and it can easily cause loss of control.

The two of them didn't speak for the next period of time, and the church was quiet for a while, but this silence didn't last too long, because the transformation on Adam didn't take too long.
About a few minutes later, the blond priest straightened up again, tidied up his slightly disheveled clothes, and restored himself to his previous decent appearance. Then, Adam looked at Roland and Klein, and offered a slightly apologetic smile, saying, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
"What's wrong? Is there something you need?" Sastiel instinctively offered a gentle smile. He raised his head, paused when he saw who it was, and looked somewhat puzzled.
