My incarnation is becoming a global calamity.

Chapter 63: Retreating to Advance, Eliminating Doubts

Su Tu thought he had misread it, so he glanced at it a few more times without making a sound.

No matter how many times he looked at it, the first line on the first page of the document always read "The Foolish Calamity, Koyo Price," without the slightest change.

He was surprised inside, but on the surface, he didn't show much emotion and remained calm.

He turned to the next page without making a sound, his gaze going down, but his mind was elsewhere.

Su Tu said he wasn't surprised that his avatar would suddenly become a calamity; it was all a lie.

Recalling what he had done while controlling his avatar, there was nothing that had anything to do with the calamity.

Even so, the reconnaissance team still identified themselves as a calamity.

Why is that?

What exactly is this so-called calamity?

Su Tu neither sped up nor slowed down his flipping through the documents; he remained unhurried and meticulous in his reading.

It's like encountering a rare and precious book, and you want to savor its contents carefully.

In reality, what he held was a document, not a book.

He was also extremely familiar with the contents of the document, after all, it was information about his own avatar.

He can even view the personal panel of his avatar with a single thought.

Those materials are definitely more detailed than this document.

But now that Bote is right next to him, it was at his own request that he look at this information.

If someone behaves strangely after reading this information, they will inevitably be suspected.

This is also why he tries so hard to maintain a calm and composed demeanor.

However, as he pondered his avatar, his eyes seemed to catch something, and his hand, which was flipping through the documents, paused slightly.

Their previously casual gazes turned serious.

"Ability to play tricks and bring disaster: It is suspected that it can swap identities with others, but the conditions and timing of the swap are unknown and need further investigation."

Su Tu's gaze swept across the contents of the document, and his expression gradually became serious.

"Calamity level A, 2 people killed. If you cannot capture them in a short time, we suggest you ask the church for help."

This is what he saw in the "Key Information on Fools and Disasters" section and the "Risk Level Assessment" section.

He vaguely remembered that two people were killed or injured.

If there are no surprises, it should have been the same person who made the move at the ruined church last time.

Indeed, one member of the reconnaissance team was killed, and another was terrified.

He didn't regret taking action, after all, the purpose of this group going to the ruined church was to capture him.

Releasing these people back is simply because his abilities mostly rely on magical tools, making it impossible for him to keep everyone behind.

If he had the ability, he would naturally not leave himself any trouble.

For example, if one's own incarnation inexplicably becomes a calamity, it might lead to the church taking action.

He could get a general understanding of the church members through some information.

They were a group of people who believed in the goddess of hope and were responsible for dealing with calamities and presiding over certain rituals.

In their spare time, they also enjoy researching magical artifacts.

They even established a department specifically for researching magical tools, manufacturing and developing all kinds of magical tools.

Although the imperial royal family also established similar departments, they could never compare with the church.

Many A-grade magical tools on the market are basically produced by the church's research and development department.

The fact that these A-grade magical artifacts could enter the market means that they possess even more powerful magical artifacts.

In other words, their current strength is unfathomable.

If it weren't for the fact that the Empire had several veteran S-class magical artifact specialists keeping them in check, they probably wouldn't be keeping such a low profile.

If they take action, the incarnation risks being wiped out by the church.

Fortunately, the incarnation possesses the Solitary Stone, which allows it to evade most searches and pursuits.

Even so, we cannot let our guard down.

No one knows whether this church, which is keen on developing magical tools, will suddenly produce a magical tool that can directly locate him.

Su Tu remained silent, his mind racing as he searched for a way to resolve his current predicament.

Even Bote, who was standing next to him, could clearly see Su Tu's unusual behavior.

This prompted him to speak up:

"Mr. Su Tu, what's wrong? Is there a problem with this document?"

Bote's eyes were full of inquiry, as if Su Tu would plant a thorn in his heart if he didn't answer the question.

Then one day, this thorn suddenly pricked him, making him focus all his attention on Su Tu.

To avoid planting this thorn in Bote's heart, Su Tu pondered for a moment and decided that he should still answer the question.

Even making up some half-true lies is better than saying nothing at all.

"I think there's nothing wrong with this information, I just have one question."

Su Tu gently closed the document and casually placed it on the sofa, his deep eyes slowly gazing at Bote.

"On what basis did you classify Ke You as an A-level calamity?"

The names of calamities are just names; there's nothing to make a big deal out of them.

The ability was described vaguely, but the reconnaissance team members saw it with their own eyes, so he had no reason to change it.

The only thing we can make a fuss about is the A-level calamity rating.

When Bote heard Su Tu's question, he was visibly stunned for a moment, but quickly came to his senses.

"Mr. Su Tu may not know this, but the ability to switch identities can cause enormous damage to the empire at certain times."

He walked to Su Tu's side, picked up the document that was on the sofa, and seemed worried that the document would be lost.

"For example, if one day he were to switch places with His Majesty the King and issue orders that would harm the interests of the Empire, the destructive power would be unimaginable."

Bot's ability to infer destructive power from his abilities is clearly very strong.

At least what he said was perfectly correct.

If what he described really happens, then the destructive power truly meets the criteria for an A-level calamity.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the A-level assessment was too conservative.

Following Bote's idea, Su Tu made some further deductions and thought that this approach was not bad and could be tried if there was an opportunity.

However, the most important issue now is to resolve the possible doubts that Bote may have in his mind.

"In that case, I think we should immediately ask the church to take action and eliminate this threat as soon as possible to ensure the safety of the empire's citizens."

Upon hearing Bote's words, Su Tu stood up immediately without the slightest hesitation.

Even his previously calm expression turned extremely serious, as if he were about to personally go to the church to ask them for help.

Of course, this was impossible; he was merely using a strategic retreat to dispel any doubts that might exist in Bote's mind.

Now that he has said this, coupled with his status as the second son of the duke and his relationship with the princess, Bot has almost no reason to doubt him.

Even his attention would be diverted to something else by Su Tu's words.

"Mr. Su Tu, please don't worry. We can handle this ourselves. Why bother the church?"

Bote glanced hurriedly in the direction of the office door, and only breathed a sigh of relief after finding nothing amiss.

Then he looked at Su Tu, feeling a little scared.

If the princess were to hear these words, he would be in serious trouble.

After all, the imperial family and the church are not as harmonious as they appear on the surface.
