The more they oppose, the more it shows that I am doing the right thing-Chapter 262 - 198: Merlin: An Su, You Take Over My Shift for a Day (Two-in-One)_3

An Su spoke righteously,

"But what if the enemy captures you by accident, and you’re tricked by a Beauty Trap, and inadvertently reveal the Church’s secrets, especially your intention to criticize this forbidden knowledge? That wouldn’t reflect well if it got out..."

This guy really dared to think big.

Merlin’s expression turned even darker, Beauty Traps and all—not even he dared to dream so fancifully.

He had figured it out: An Su was counting on the dense Heavenly Magic here, which wouldn’t destroy his soul, to have an excuse to stay put.

What was so great about this wretched place? Merlin sighed. He had been here for a year and couldn’t wait to leave, yet this kid An Su actually fancied living in Heaven.

Truly not recognizing one’s fortune while in the midst of it.

Perhaps it would be better to let the two exchange places.

Wait a second... A faint spark flickered in Merlin’s eyes, perhaps he could really let this kid swap with him, take over his shift tomorrow, and then he could go on a date...

The more Merlin thought about it, the more viable the idea seemed; he had previously devised a plan for possession—letting someone else take over his body, with that person in control during work hours and himself regaining control afterward.

For the soul of Magic God Merlin, a mere body was just a constraint, as long as his soul was intact, he could always create or reclaim a body anytime.

Including Merlin’s current body, which was actually molded from Holy Light, but he wasn’t skilled in sculpting features, so it had no face.

That’s where the title ’Faceless One’ came from.

And now, he could create something similar.

"An Su." Merlin’s gaze towards An Su became increasingly kind, causing the latter to shudder, "Living in Heaven is possible, I have just one condition."

An Su’s gaze sharpened, sensing the aura of another being similar to himself by nature.

"How about you take over my shifts for a few days?" Merlin said with a pleasant expression.

"...What are you talking about." An Su’s mouth twitched slightly.

"I’ll give you the temporary authority over Heaven for one day," Merlin’s smile grew even kinder, "You help me work for a day. I’m going out on a date."

"How am I supposed to work..." An Su hadn’t finished speaking when he saw the Holy Light suddenly blossom across the sky, dusk and sunset intertwined above, as the Holy Light fell and Heaven’s Gate slowly opened. He felt the Holy Light gradually merging into his body.

"Turn on your Holy Light Transformation Spell."

Merlin had long noticed An Su’s self-modified Transformation Spell and instructed.

"Don’t resist, this is also good for you."

Reluctantly, An Su withdrew his soul, while on the other side, Merlin had already crafted a new body with the grandiolescence of Heavenly Magic. Guided by Merlin, An Su’s soul entered into that new vessel.

An Su slowly opened his eyes, realizing he had no face; instead, it was replaced with the dazzling and intricate light of stars.

He could clearly sense his current state and see his current form, which somewhat resembled Merlin’s, with a crimson robe fluttering in the wind, but instead of pure white Holy Light in his eyes, there were cyan stars.

The vast and immense Magic Power within this body was enough to make An Su’s scalp tingle with just a slight touch.

The whole of Heaven was powering him.

Even though An Su’s soul had reached the sanctity of a saint, it wasn’t strong enough to support so much Magic Power, and he could only utilize less than a fifth of the body’s capacity.

Even so, he barely reached the level of an average Demigod.

If an ordinary person were to enter this body, they would explode and die on the spot.

"I’ve fashioned you a temporary shell with the Holy Light of Heaven," Merlin said, looking over his handiwork with satisfaction, "It can last a day. It should hold up for a bit against anything you encounter, enough to last until I return."

Merlin thought his idea was quite good. An Su was the most suitable candidate, with a soul endurance of a saint, just strong enough to barely use this body without fear of rebellion, since the true authority of Heaven remained firmly in Merlin’s hands.

He felt his craftsmanship was getting better and better.

If he could mold magic, he could mold people.

"What are you going to do tomorrow?" An Su asked, his face and features expressionless.

"I have a date and a vacation," Merlin replied with a chuckle.

They even allowed for substitutes in this gig!

An Su was silent for a long while, his soul forcibly residing within a body far exceeding his own rank, constantly bearing horrific pressure and pain, but this trial was also further improving the quality of his soul...

Moreover, experiencing the magic power of a demigod level in advance was also very beneficial for his future development.

"What if a leader from above comes to inspect?" An Su asked, his face void of features.

"I no longer have anyone above me," Merlin answered with a laugh.

"I have people above me. The dorm supervisor is going to check my room!" An Su’s expression darkened.

"You are going to stay in Heaven; surely you’ve asked for leave in advance."

Merlin saw through An Su’s ruse, "Don’t worry, I’ll announce that An Su is on a secret mission and temporarily missing for a day. And, given your background, the longer you are missing, the happier the dorm supervisor will be."

My dorm supervisor is actually Miss Enya… An Su sighed softly.

A secret mission is just to help you chase girls?

An Su struggled to raise his hand, splendid light pouring from between his fingers. Heavenly Magic enveloped An Su’s hand; he had never before controlled such a wondrous power.

"Alright," An Su weighed the pros and cons before deciding to temporarily alter his plans.

"I have one final condition, I need to go home first," An Su said, "I’ll return to Heaven tonight."

"Why?" Merlin asked.

"The cultists planned to tempt me today with money, the Beauty Trap, and knowledge. I need to go home first to collect the payment," he answered with a smile, his azure eyes filled with a helplessness. He didn’t want any of these things, but the cultists insisted on giving them, truly annoying.

Upon hearing An Su’s words, Merlin froze.

He suddenly felt quite unbalanced.

Weren’t there supposed to be evil cultists attacking you? And now there’s even a Beauty Trap?

"And also, to let my dorm supervisor know I won’t be coming back tomorrow, lest she worries," An Su sighed, then looked at Merlin with a smile of pleasure on his lips but sarcastically wished him well.

"I hope you have a wonderful date tomorrow."
