Ansel was eating a cake at The Whale Tea. The cake was so cute, it was shaped into a whale. In front of him, there was a priest who was also enjoying a similar meal.

The priest's was Nollan Tiffin. He was one of Hansel's friends. He became a priest.

"You shouldn't have to come all the way here. I can drop this off and visit your Grandpa." Nolan said.

"It's okay, I also want to see every moment in New Haven," Ansel said.

"You grow up as Hansel. Once, you were so spoiled and sweet little brother." Nollan was not the first person to say that to Ansel, but Andrew.

Everyone's opinion about him was the same. However, it would change in five days. He would be himself once Viorenving was in his hands. When it happened, no one could say that he was as cold as Hansel.

There was one question that has not been answered. Even his Grandpa couldn't answer it. If his heart was no longer frozen after getting Viorenving, why was Hansel's heart kept frozen? Even though he already has Arioch.

"Nollan, thank you for this. I'll return this next week." Ansel borrowed a book entitled Demon Sigil. It was a list of 72 demons along with sigils created by Solomon.

So, he could learn how to seal the fayfiend. He had to seal a feyfiend after he fought.

Fayfiend was so strong. At first, he must fight and weaken it. After that, it was easy to seal it.

Sealing a fayfiend without weakening it first, it was akin to committing suicide. Fayfiend absorbed life before uttered a single word of incantation or drawing a sigil.

However, there was not enough time to do it. The movements were so fast, as fast as lightning.

It made Ansel thought whether the fayfiend also did the same thing as the lantern woman? If it was true, it would be difficult for Ansel to fight.

Nollan asked Ansel to keep it, because he knew Ansel would take his brother's place. "No, just keep it. You need it more."

"Thank you."

"After this, I will return to church. You can join in." Nollan stood up and asked Ansel to join him at an event. But he rejected it. There was something much more important.

Even though, he didn't know what it was. It was the real reason to go to New Haven. Meanwhile, he only used meeting Nollan to divert his thoughts for a moment.

He felt very burdened by all the visions. Because it was his responsibility.

"No, thank you." Ansel also stood up and rejected Nollan's invitation. They went towards the exit.

It made Nollan wonder if there was anything he wanted to do in New Haven. "Then are you going home straight away? Or is there someone else you want to meet besides me?"

"I want to visit the museum." Ansel answered without further doing anything.

"Okay, I'll go first. See you." They separated in front of the Whale Tea and walked in opposite directions.

He was curious about what would happen today. Therefore, he walked slowly. He just enjoyed the moment of the crowd on the street while playing with a small stick.

The stick that Ansel brought was just an ordinary toy stick. However, it was quite unique because it could extend. The toy was inspired by Sun Wu Kong, the monkey king from Mount Hua Guò.

When he was beside him at a crossroads and was about to cross, someone shouted. No, he felt everyone was screaming in fear. He turned towards the voice.

There was a woman running around with a knife. It frightened everyone who ran away from the woman. It made all the cars stop.

Everyone stayed away from the woman, except Ansel. He just stood there silently looking at the crazy woman.

"It seemed like she was possessed by an evil spirit." It was so obvious that the woman had lost consciousness. She was controlled by an evil spirit that possessed her.

Her mother was there. She followed her daughter and tried to stop her. She was too scared, she didn't dare to approach. She could just scream for her daughter to stop while crying. "Austyn, stop!!! Austin!!! Austin!!! Austin!!!"

The woman named Austyn ran towards Ansel very quickly. She pointed at a knife. Ansel can avoid it.

Because she didn't hit the target, the woman didn't just give up. Her eyes were only focused on Ansel. Now he had found the answer to why he had to go to New Haven.

Ansel was full of questions. He had more of a chance of dodging. He could have fought using the small stick he was carrying.

But it was impossible for him to do it because he couldn't hurt that woman. Moreover, she was just an ordinary human.

On the other hand, if he didn't do something, he would die in that woman's hands. Not just him, but also several people around him.

Ansel really wanted to do something. To save himself and everyone around him. But he had never done an exorcism at all. He didn't know how either.

At that time, he only had one choice. Fight or die.

He had to decide quickly. If he remained silent, he would not die easily. Because he knew that it was not time for Ansel to die.

If he chose to fight, he must sacrifice his body. His body could be injured. If the injury he received was an injury from the person in front of him, it wouldn't be a problem for him.

But if the wound was from an evil spirit that possessed him. He would torment. The wound would be difficult to heal. He didn't just feel pain, but his body would feel extremely hot as it was being burned by fire.

He remembered very well the wounds he received from the fayfiend that attacked him and his brother. His hands immediately turned red. The pain was unbearable.

To cure it, Hansel had to soak his hands in ice cubes for a whole day. Ansel had to run here and there just to bring him ice cubes. One refrigerator full of ice cubes was not enough to relieve the heat.

After the heat disappeared. His hands were paralyzed because it had been buried in ice cubes for a long time.

While he was thinking about it, he chose to avoid it. He ran while determining what he chose.

But he has grown up and was no longer a child like he was then.

So, he decided to do it. It was time for him to learn to stop running from reality and do something he should do. Whatever would happen, he had to try. Besides, he was tired of continuing to dodge. Moreover, the woman kept targeting him and didn't want to let him go.
