"Are you really planning to keep this thing?"
Medici wasn't surprised that Lynn wasn't in a hurry to find Amon. He merely glanced at the "hamster ball" in Lynn's hand with an expression of extreme disdain.
The War Angel equally detested all Amons, even this miniature Amon, which Lynn seemed to have already corrupted.
"Hmm..." Lynn stroked his chin, showing a thoughtful expression.
If this were the Fourth Epoch, Lynn would have immediately kept Tiny Amon by his side without hesitation. But in this Fifth Epoch, it wasn't as convenient.
Lynn couldn't maintain his divine incarnation indefinitely, and he certainly couldn't use his main body to look after Tiny Amon. Although this Amon was already tainted, it was still Amon, and Lynn couldn't afford to let his guard down around it.
"How about sending it to Bethel to keep him entertained?" Lynn suddenly had a good idea. Although Bethel's current state wasn't great, after suppressing the corruption from the Mother Goddess of Depravity, he could still wield the power of a King of Angels. With his extensive experience in dealing with Amon, even if the current Amon himself encountered Bethel, he wouldn't easily come out on top.
In the original text, Amon was able to easily replace Bethel and ascend to godhood primarily because Bethel had chosen to give up. Otherwise, it's uncertain who would have won.
"But just to be safe, let's check it a few more times..." Lynn thought, tossing the "hamster ball" in his hand and smiling at the Tiny Amon rolling around inside. "Little Amon, do you yearn for the Cosmos?"
Tiny Amon shook his slightly dizzy head and looked at Lynn slowly, asking in confusion, "What?"
"Nothing much. Just thinking of sending you to study among the Cosmos ahead of time," Lynn said, smiling as he spoke words of pure terror.
Tiny Amon: … This isn't what we agreed on!
He couldn't help but scoot back. He looked up at Lynn hesitantly and said, "You're not planning to hand me over to an Outer God, are you?"
"No, I'm not that cruel," Lynn shook his head, looking at Tiny Amon with a smile. "But I'm currently unable to keep you, so I'm thinking of letting Bethel take care of you for a while. How does that sound? Are you looking forward to it?"
"Uhh... Bethel is in the Cosmos?" Tiny Amon asked.
"Yes, He is." Lynn replied while smiling at the little thing. Then he suddenly tossed the "hamster ball" to Ouroboros, who was beside him.
"What is it?" Ouroboros caught the "hamster ball," looking at Lynn with some confusion.
"Hold onto this for me, just in case Amon tries something. Later, when we meet the True Creator, I'll ask Him to help me check this little guy. I wouldn't be comfortable keeping him otherwise," Lynn glanced at the Tiny Amon in the cage and smiled.
He handed the "hamster ball" to Ouroboros, considering that Ouroboros was a King of Angels in the Wheel of Fortune Pathway. Even if Ouroboros wasn't a match for Amon, his luck would make him the least likely to be tricked by Amon, making him the most suitable to carry the "hamster ball."
Lynn was careful with such gifts, especially in this era where his main identity existed. He couldn't act as recklessly as his alternate identities.
Of course, Lynn's actions were also somewhat of a misleading tactic for Amon—making it seem like he wasn't as powerful as before, hoping to lure Amon into making a move.
Yes, Lynn was laying a trap.
After all, Lynn was a man of principles. Even if he wanted to deal with Amon, he wanted to do so with a legitimate reason.
"Oh." Ouroboros looked down quietly at the Tiny Amon in the cage. After staring at him for three seconds, he suddenly said, "So Amon really sold himself out..."
"Hahaha!" Medici was momentarily stunned by these words before bursting into laughter.
Lynn also found it hard to suppress his amusement. He looked at the puffed-up Tiny Amon and then glanced at Ouroboros, sincerely asking, "Ouroboros, are you sure you're not naturally dark-humored?"
"?" Ouroboros looked at Lynn with confusion, clearly not understanding what Lynn meant.
"Tsk, tsk..." Lynn didn't bother explaining further. He shook his head and looked around before saying, "We're not in a hurry to catch Amon. Let's head to Silver City first... By the way, does anyone know the way?"
Lynn really had no idea where Silver City was. After all, he had never been here before, and this forsaken place didn't even have a map. His teleportation abilities were also greatly reduced due to the separation from the spirit world, so Lynn had no clue how to get to Silver City.
Ouroboros had a puzzled expression, then shook his head and said, "I don't know, I've never been there."
Though he had spent a long time in the Forsaken Land of the Gods, Ouroboros had never ventured out much. He was either praying by the True Creator's side or painting, so naturally, he didn't know where Silver City was.
Medici crossed his arms, lifted his chin slightly, and looked down at Lynn and Ouroboros with a smug expression. He then curled his lips and, with a mocking smile, said, "Are you two three-year-old toddlers? You don't even know the way."
"So, does Lord Medici know the way?" Lynn shot a glance at the arrogant War Angel.
"No," Medici responded with an unnervingly calm demeanor.
Of course, he didn't know the way to Silver City either. Although he had visited Silver City before the Fall of Sun God, the terrain was vastly different back then, so it couldn't be compared.
"Then why are you acting so arrogant..." Lynn didn't know what to say. He muttered a complaint and then exchanged glances with the other two angels.
Ouroboros suggested, "Why don't we ask the Lord? He might know where Silver City is."
Medici kept up his haughty demeanor, "You could have your Fool believer in Silver City pray to me. That way, we could directly pinpoint the location."
After thinking for a few seconds while stroking his chin, Lynn looked at the "hamster ball" in Ouroboros's hand and asked, "Tiny Amon, do you know how to get to Silver City? I remember you have a clone there."
"...I do," Tiny Amon said from inside the cage. Though he wanted to refuse to answer, he eventually chose to be honest in the face of Lynn's increasingly bright smile.
Thus, under Amon's guidance, the three angels set off in the direction of Silver City. It was indeed a remarkable sight.
