Chapter 1254: Exaggerated

Bang!

When the "shadow" blasted an Air Cannon forward, Klein acted as though

he had sensed it ahead of time. His body jerked backward, and he

somersaulted in the air, landing steadily several steps away.

During this process, his right hand continued to press down on the half

top hat on his head, making him seem rather relaxed.

Seeing that Enuni and the "shadow" didn't attempt to chase and continue

their attacks, the smile on his face became even more obvious.

"It's really impolite to interrupt others while they're speaking.

"I wanted to discuss how to deal with you in front of all of you, but I

can only avoid that now."

As he spoke, his left face, which formed from a cluster of transparent

maggots, trembled twice, as if he was trying to wink at his former

marionette and his former shadow.

Then, with a beaming smile on his face, he walked back to Colin Iliad,

Derrick, and Lovia and shrugged.

"The owners of this place aren't welcoming us. We can only head out and

discuss how to resolve the problem---them."

Colin Iliad didn't think lowly of this exaggerated powerhouse just

because he didn't seem capable of controlling his emotions. This was

because he had shown his expertise and meticulousness towards detail

when handling the previous matters. This wasn't something a demigod who

had lost his mind could do.

"Alright." The City of Silver's Chief responded to Klein's suggestion.

Of course, Derrick had no objections, while Lovia remained silent and

didn't say a word.

Hence, the four demigods and the Silver Knight marionette retraced their

steps. They walked out of the Giant King's Court's door, and Klein even

got the silver-armored guard to pull the huge door and slowly close it.

It appeared like a very polite gesture.

Throughout the entire process, Enuni, who had layers of black wings on

his back, and the pure "shadow" just stood watching. They didn't attempt

to stop him, as though an invisible wall had restrained their movements.

After a while, dusk dissipated and darkness descended. All awaited the

light of dawn to illuminate everything.

In this quiet and dead world, a ray of light finally rose, bringing with

it a long-awaited dawn.

At this moment, Enuni and the "shadow" heard knocking sounds at the door

of the Giant King's Court.

Someone was knocking on the door.

Knock, knock, knock. After this continued a few more times,

the door let out a creaking sound as it opened heavily.

Wearing a black trench coat, Klein maintained the smile on the right

side of his face as he entered the Giant King's Court first. He walked

up the stairs step by step, and the other demigods, along with his

marionette, followed one step behind.

After reaching the end of the half-way, Klein stopped and said to Enuni

and the "shadow" who were more than ten meters away, "Please forgive me

for not waiting for you to say 'come in.' Perhaps it's because this spot

is too far from the main door, so you didn't hear my knocking.

"As you know, as a gentleman, I only know how to use my fingers to

strike, not slap with my palms."

The moment he finished speaking, Enuni, who hadn't spoken since the

beginning, spoke:

"Next, you'll deal with Shadow by yourself and let the people of the

City of Silver hold me back."

"Oh?" Klein let out a loud nasal grunt while wearing an exaggerated

smile, as though he was waiting for Enuni to give a further explanation.

At the same time, he raised his left hand and pressed his face.

The transparent and twisted maggots began to squirm about, some boring

in, others crawling out and quickly completing an exchange.

With a shadow over his face, Enuni, with his black, slightly-curled hair

that reached his shoulders, continued in a deep voice, "You didn't

summon a projection from the Historical Void in advance because you know

that Shadow can summon the projection of the Staff of the Stars and

simulate the powers of the Angel of Time; it will accelerate the flow of

time to disperse your angel helpers.

"Similarly, he didn't make any preparations because of the same reason.

"And if you summon a saint that can last longer, he can do the same.

Both of you offset each other."

"I hate playing cards with myself!" Klein nodded heavily, expressing his

agreement and laughed out loud.

Enuni, whose face was blurry, glanced at him and the three demigods of

the City of Silver.

"Therefore, you turned the Silver Knight guarding the door into your

marionette, planning on using it as a chip to tip the balance."

"This problem is his, not mine. He actually doesn't have a target to

turn into a marionette. Or perhaps, why don't you sacrifice yourself?"

The corners of Klein's mouth curled up as he said to his former

marionette, Enuni.

Enuni retracted his gaze and turned to examine Colin Iliad, Derrick, and

Lovia.

"You and Shadow cancel each other out. The prerequisite for using a

marionette to win is that they can hold me back."

Just as he said that, the two shoulders of the marionette that had been

corrupted by the power of the sleeping Dark Angel squirmed as a head

grew out of each.

The three heads were covered in shadows and had black curly hair that

reached his shoulders. However, they gave people the feeling that one

was young and the other old.

Before Klein and the demigods could react, Enuni's right body suddenly

tore apart, causing the "aged" head to take away a third of his body.

The body that split apart rapidly squirmed and instantly became

complete. On the shadow over the head's surface, a pair of eyes

protruded with vertical, pale-golden pupils.

Suddenly, the magnificent staircase leading to the ancient god's

residence collapsed, turning into a desolate moor. At the end of the

moor was a pitch-black city overgrown with weeds.

City of Silver!

Derrick's heart tightened upon seeing such a realistic scene. He was

worried that the unknown enemy would drag him and the other demigods to

the City of Silver and destroy it. As for Lovia, her gaze froze as her

body trembled when Enuni grew two heads. It was as if she could sense

the aura of an absolute high-leveled entity.

Colin Iliad surveyed his surroundings and crossed his two swords that

were covered in the light of dawn before pushing them out. He said in a

deep voice, "This is fake."

At this moment, Klein covered his mouth with his left hand that was made

of transparent maggots. He yawned and asked Enuni's main body with a

smile, "Will you be stronger in dreams?

"Or can you cross the boundary and launch an attack?

"Yes, if it were me, I would definitely consider using a dream to lure

the enemy into entering my attack range."

The moment he said that, the desolate moor and the distant castle

dissipated at the same time. The magnificent staircase, which was

illuminated by the light of dawn, appeared once again.

At this moment, the left side of Enuni's body tore away. The "young"

head had taken away a third of his flesh.

The shadow covering "his" face was quickly replaced by a resplendent

golden light. It was as if there were two miniature "suns" in his eyes.

"The Sun?" Klein first voiced out a question before laughing so hard

that he couldn't straighten his back. "Haha, you want to use the

'Unshadowed Domain' to break through the Silver Knight's 'Light

Concealment'? Yes, we have three Silver Knights on our side. That is

worthy of your attention, but have you considered the feelings of

Shadow? You don't, you only think of yourself! He's only a shadow, so

have you considered how weakened he would be in the 'Unshadowed

Domain'?"

At this point, Klein laughed even louder. Even the transparent Worms of

Spirit crawling on his left face sped up their movements.

"Hahahaha, also, have you thought about the Beyonder powers of

Corruption, Degeneration, and Darkness? Have you seriously considered

the negative effects that the 'Unshadowed Domain' will bring you?"

After laughing, Klein straightened his back and asked seriously, "How

should I address you now?

"En'en? U'u? Ni'ni?"

Enuni, whose main body was still covered in shadows, slowly took a deep

breath and said, "If you had chosen the Hunter pathway, you would

definitely be stronger than you are now..."

Before he could finish his sentence, the layers of black wings on his

back suddenly spread out. They kept expanding, covering the sky and

wrapped towards the magnificent staircase.

Faint shadows immediately covered the area. Then, Enuni directly crossed

the invisible boundary and descended in front of Colin Iliad, Lovia, and

Derrick.

He actually had the means to break through the obstruction!

The young him, who had split off as the Sun Saint, immediately raised

his arms.

The light of dawn turned blazing hot, illuminating every corner of the

magnificent staircase, leaving no shadows. Nothing could hide within.

Unshadowed Domain!

However, the shadows around him didn't fade. The dark wings that

enveloped Enuni's body blocked out pure sunlight.

As for Shadow, it seemed to be covered in a cloak. Although it was much

dimmer, it didn't show any signs of weakness.

At the same time, Enuni's split-off aged body pushed out his right palm.

A violent but illusory gust of wind appeared around him, carrying with

it an invisible, multi-colored intent that gushed towards Klein and his

Silver Knight marionette.

Mind Deprivation!

It could awe the target, make him feel fear, show signs of frenzy, or

lose a portion of his rationality.

And now, because Klein's spirit was incomplete, he was on the brink of

losing control. He couldn't even control his emotions and reactions very

well. If he were to suffer the effects of Mind Deprivation, there was a

high chance that he would lose control on the spot and break down into a

monster.

Enuni understood what had happened to him and understood his weakness.

The moment he launched the attack, he allowed the Spectator Saint to use

an area-of-effect attack that Klein would find difficult to defend

against and find unbearable.

The strong winds that were tainted with all kinds of emotions and will

instantly engulfed Klein. However, half of the crazy adventurer, who had

half a normal body and half a terrifying body, didn't show any sign of

warped expressions, manifestation of godhood, or physical breakdown.

Instead, his exaggerated smiling right eye became extremely calm.

While waiting for the City of Silver's expedition team, he had already

summoned Miss Justice and got her to make up a Virtual Persona that

stemmed from his lampooning, Clown-like character, allowing his spirit

to become complete for a certain amount of time!

This was the reason why he appeared relatively rational when he left the

guard's residence, only to appear exaggerated and crazy when he

rendezvoused with the City of Silver's expedition team.

Furthermore, this Virtual Persona could also withstand several attacks

from the Mind domain.

The coldness in his eyes quickly faded away. The corner of his right lip

curled up, becoming symmetrical with a curled Worm of Spirit that was

crawling on the left.

This was a sincere smile.
