Be dragged into the room by the succubus

Oath of the Watcher.

It is an oath that every watcher will swear when he really decides to join the watch society.

The original group of watchmen can be said to be almost all pure idealists.

They swore to protect humanity, to be loyal to the world, and finally to themselves.

Such an oath may not guarantee that every watchman will strictly implement it, but it will remind them that there is still such a bottom line and constraints at critical moments.

In the last few hundred years, some people have always said that Watchman is slowly deteriorating, and is slowly developing towards the appearance it once hated.

This may be true, there is no permanent organization in the world.

Even organizations born out of humanity's highest ideals are subject to small changes over time.

But it is undeniable that no matter how subtle changes are made, the true core of the Overwatch Society will not change.

They are guardians of peace and dreamers in pursuit of ideals.

goo.

Augustus still lowered his head, but began to get nervous involuntarily.

Even if he is a legendary mage, even with his current strength and status, there are not many people in this world who can threaten him.

But at this moment, Augustus still felt uncomfortable.

Not because he was afraid of exposing what he had done, but simply because of the existence in front of him.

【Stargazer】

A legendary Warden who is ancient, powerful, and even great in merit.

The face is not deliberately hidden but it is difficult to see clearly. Except for the light-colored eyes, everything about the stargazer seems impossible to be observed.

This title that has been handed down for nearly a thousand years in the Watchman's Secret Record is not passed down from generation to generation, but belongs to her alone.

A long time passed, and even her name disappeared in the long river, and no one knew it.

A legend who dedicated everything to the Overwatch Society, even giving up his own existence.

From the moment when everyone forgot her name, there was only one stargazer who was always watching the sea of ​​clouds in Sky City.

He is obviously called a stargazer, but he never looks up at the starry sky, but looks down at the sea of ​​clouds under his feet.

what is she looking atWhat do you want to see again?

No one knows.

Even Augustus, who is already considered a high-ranking member of the Overwatch Society, would not have had the chance to meet this mysterious existence if he hadn't been assigned to host the Observed Person Project.

With lightning in his mind, Augustus constantly analyzed the scene in front of him. Since he entered the legend, he has not thought so quickly for a long time.

what does she mean?

Why ask this question?

Is she doubting my loyalty to the Overwatch Society?

Or……

Isn't she suspicious?

The mood became heavy, and when he thought about the situation clearly, Augustus calmed down.

No matter what the other party sees, he has a clear conscience.

"........."

The sea of ​​clouds outside the window was churning, and the silence spread in the lonely space, and finally condensed into deepness.

Just when Augustus was a little shaken, the stargazer silently withdrew his gaze.

He turned around and walked towards the seat beside the huge round table, instead of taking the largest seat, he sat down next to it.

Looking at the tall old man who was still bowing his head in place, the stargazer said softly:

"What do you think the Observed Project means?"

What does it mean?

This question has actually troubled Augustus for a long time.

In the more than 20 years since he took over the project, he has been thinking about the deep meaning of the plan.

What do these observables mean?

One can only be sure that the stargazers are looking for someone, someone very special.

Gender, age, occupation, strength, camp... these are all unknown, and all kinds of people have been included in it.

But they all have something special about them.

Either amazing talent, or unbelievable luck, or amazing talent...

But why didn't they intervene when they clearly locked their scope, but silently observed, let them develop, and even... ignored their death?

He thought about many explanations for this question, but in the end he didn't have a definite answer.

There was no answer, and Augustus knew that the other party would explain to him.

Sure enough, the stargazer continued:

"We're... looking for a hope."

"As prophesied."

hope?prophecy?

Augustus was confused, he didn't expect to hear such unrealistic words from this adult.

To be honest, he found it all a little ridiculous.

When will the Watcher rely on such illusory prophecies?

Taking a deep look at him, the stargazer sensed the other party's displeasure, but did not explain it.

She just sighed silently, leaned her body back to the chair slowly, and said softly:

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand now, maybe you will understand later."

"Don't interfere too much, don't push them on the opposite path from us."

"Let's go, I already know what happened this time, so I won't be an example."

Frowning tightly, Augustus raised his head, wanting to refute.

"but……"

But before the words came out, he saw the dazzling scarlet dripping from the stargazer's hood and onto his robe.

The light-colored deep gaze did not change at all, and the stargazer slowly repeated:

"Let's go."

Suck!

Taking a deep breath, Augustus's expression returned to normal, he straightened up, turning a blind eye to the blood at the corner of her mouth, and immediately turned and left without the slightest hesitation.

bang.

After leaving the gate, Augustus was silent for a while, bowed slightly towards the gate, then turned and left.

Walking slowly, without the gaze of stargazers, Augustus' mentality quickly returned to normal.

He is also a legend who has been famous for hundreds of years, so he naturally has a corresponding bearing, and he will not lose his composure because of this level of embarrassment and confusion.

So what is this?A warning, or a beating?

"Hope? Do you want to pin your hope on an illusory prophecy?"

absurd.

Returning to the stairs again, Augustus paused, then walked down slowly.

"Be loyal to human beings, loyal to the world, and loyal to yourself..."

Talking to himself, he turned his head to look at the portraits of the first few leaders hanging on the wall of the hall.

Looking up, staring at the masked figure, Augustus muttered to himself:

"But why? I never said that I would dedicate my loyalty to the Overwatch Society..."

With that said, his figure entered the corridor.

Disappear.

……

bang.

"Ugh……"

Shaking his head at the closed door, the stargazer slowly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and laughed lowly:

"An illusory prophecy?"

"You will laugh when you hear this, after all...that's what you want to hear the most."

The stargazer closed his eyes, thinking about the scene he saw just now, the intertwined figure of an angel and a demon.

"Will it be you?"

"[Prophet]..."
