We can talk while playing, as usual," Aiden replied calmly. Aiden indeed had no desire to play board games with the goddess before him, but from the moment he entered, he sensed Mephilia anticipated the purpose of his visit. Seeing her attitude, Aiden realized getting agitated was useless. Before the composed goddess, no matter how darkly he scowled or how loudly he questioned, he would only appear ridiculous.<!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----></ms-cmark-node>

Mephilia first commented on Aiden's roll, then unhurriedly answered the question. "Looks like you already know the other conditions for the 'Hatred' Authority?"<!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----></ms-cmark-node>

Aiden pressed. Based on the information from the God of Death's Agent, Mephilia had once granted Mr. Bloodcloth her blessing. The God of Death's Agent obtained powers by killing people for his master and acted according to the God of Death's will. Kyle received immortality from the Progenitor because the Progenitor needed him for tasks. Then Mr. Bloodcloth, at that time, was likely Mephilia "Agent." His specific act of seizing the "Hatred" Authority from the "Vengeance Sanctuary" was probably also under Mephilia direction. Snatching an Authority from one Dominator likely required the backing of another Dominator; otherwise, it would be nigh impossible.<!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----></ms-cmark-node>

You haven't disappointed me," Mephilia showed a gratified smile. "He was a pawn of rather good quality. At the time, I gave instructions for him to seize the 'Hatred' Authority and hold it for me—because 'I' couldn't directly absorb the 'Hatred' Authority. But that fellow unhesitatingly chose to betray me and monopolize the Authority. Truly disappointing."<!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----></ms-cmark-node>

Mr. Bloodcloth, who killed the previous Aiden, obtained the 'Hatred' Authority with Mephilia help, and his act of betrayal was premeditated by Mephilia. Afterward, Mephilia guided the Inquisition to dismantle the Blood Moon Cult and secretly reached some kind of "agreement" with the previous Aiden. It was likely her actions that caused Mr. Bloodcloth to designate "Aiden Galord" as his nemesis. Then, she placed an insurance policy on Aiden, making it impossible for Mr. Bloodcloth to kill "Aiden." After Aiden learned of his situation, to protect himself, he could only rely on Mephilia, strive to obtain divine powers, seeking the strength to defend himself against Mr. Bloodcloth's "Vengeance." And during this process, Mephilia could choose, at some point, to commit an act of "Betrayal" against him.<!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----><!----></ms-cmark-node>
