Chapter 1387: Method

Behind the endless curtain of darkness, in the darkness with aqueous

light ebbing gently.

A young man with black hair, black eyes, a broad forehead, and a thin

face suddenly sat up as though he had experienced a nightmare.

Dressed in a classic black robe, "He" stretched out "His" right hand,

attempting to take out a crystal monocle from the void and wear it over

"His" right eye.

But this time, "He" didn't obtain anything.

"His" right hand paused in midair for two seconds before "He" retracted

it and pinched the right eye rim.

At this moment, "He" heard a gentle but emotionless voice:

"To him, there's something more important than life.

"To you, apart from yourself, there's nothing worth caring about.

"When the matter develops to a point where one's life is put on the

line, it would imply your loss."

The corners of Amon's mouth curled up as though "He" wanted to smile and

reply, but "He" ultimately didn't say anything.

The voice continued:

"Born as a Mythical Creature, your lack of normal anchors is also a

problem.

"This makes you know what courage and sacrifice are, but it's hard for

you to understand."

Amon's expression changed as "He" stood up from the slightly glistening

darkness.

"He" looked at the human-skinned glove that was thrown to the side

before but seemed to be very happy. "He" retracted "His" gaze and curled

the corners of "His" lips.

"This seems very interesting.

"I plan to leave this place and enter the cosmos. That place is much

more exciting than the real world. Perhaps I'll understand the two

things you mentioned as a result of this."

"That's very dangerous. Once you enter the cosmos, and before I succeed,

I won't be able to provide any help. However, this will let you avoid

'Him' at least," the calm and indifferent voice replied without any

emotion.

Amon didn't say another word. "He" raised "His" hand and pinched "His"

right eye rim and vanished from the endless shadow screen.

In the ancient palace above the fog.

As Amon was completely obliterated under the power of a supernova, Klein

couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.

If he had a choice, he naturally didn't want to sacrifice himself to

revive the Celestial Worthy of Heaven and Earth for Blessings. He hoped

to personally protect this world and seek out the meaning of life again.

Of course, if he didn't have a choice, he wouldn't hesitate to awaken

the Celestial Worthy. He was certain that he could do this, and Amon was

also aware of this. Therefore, "He" didn't force him, and only attempted

to escape.

In the battle just now, it had developed into a battle of courage

towards the end. The one who wasn't afraid of true death would yield the

absolute advantage.

Clearly, Amon wasn't prepared to sacrifice "Himself" for this matter.

After heaving a sigh of relief, Klein's face under the cold and bizarre

mask suddenly grimaced.

Under his translucent dark-colored cloak, the slippery and sinister

tentacles that extended out were either hitting the ground or rising up

high. It was completely out of his control.

He could feel that the Celestial Worthy of Heaven and Earth for

Blessings in his body was rapidly waking up, and it seemed like he

couldn't stop it.

Even if Klein directly died with his will and relied on the powers of a

Miracle Invoker to revive, he wouldn't be able to escape, as the Lord of

the Mysteries also wielded the authority of "Miracles."

At that moment, Klein recalled the words of Dark Angel Sasrir, which was

also from the ancient sun god:

"The Primordial One had awoken in my body..."

In the next second, at the spot where Amon's body had shattered, beams

of light were pulled by a vague invisible form of gravity as they

charged towards Klein.

Some were Worms of Time with twelve rings, some were insects made of

resplendent starlight, while some were just large numbers of light

dots...

Klein wanted to stop the Beyonder characteristics from fusing with him,

but the increasingly powerful Celestial Worthy's will prevented him from

succeeding.

His body swelled into a balloon, and then suddenly became thin as paper.

This repeated itself in an endless loop.

The mask on his face became brighter and more bizarre. The slippery and

evil tentacles that extended out from under his cloak increased and

became more uncontrollable.

One Worm of Time Beyonder characteristic, one Key of Star Beyonder

characteristic, and one... Klein's mind felt like he was being devoured

by an invisible monster, producing excruciating pain.

Finally, a pair of eyes, which seemed to be formed from pure starlight,

formed from layers of illusory doors and crystal monocles, rushed

towards Klein's face, straight for the mask's eye sockets.

Almost at the same time, the strange door of light that was tainted with

bluish-blackness appeared on Klein's body again.

Sefirah Castle!

At that moment, Klein, Sefirah Castle, Door's Uniqueness, and Error's

Uniqueness, all had a strong inclination to congregate.

Once they fused together, the Lord of the Mysteries would completely

awaken and complete "His" resurrection process.

Klein suddenly used his right hand to cover half of his face.

His entire body bent down as if he was fighting with another "self."

With the anchoring and image disruption from his anchors, Klein finally

slowed down the awakening of the Lord of the Mysteries's will, reducing

the power of convergence by a little.

The starlight eyes and the crystal monocle stopped in front of Klein's

face, floating only a few centimeters in the air like planets revolving

around the sun.

Klein believed that he couldn't maintain this extreme imbalance for too

long. Perhaps a few minutes or even dozens of seconds later, the

convergence would continue without restraint, bringing about an

unbearable change.

"Haha, this can be considered a form of fusion." Klein laughed in an

unstable manner.

Then, he "Fooled" the Trunsoest Brass Book, allowing it to enter a

sealed state and fly into the junk pile.

Right on the heels of that, Klein left Sefirah Castle and arrived in the

astral world formed from symbolism and authority.

This place seemed similar to the cosmos. It was dark and vast, but in

fact, there were many unique aspects to it. For example, even though

there was a sun-like star hanging in the distance, emitting normal light

and heat, if one tried to get close to it, without getting injured, one

would realize that the astral world there was like a black curtain. The

sun was directly painted with pastel colors, and there were a bunch of

concepts and symbols surrounding it.

Furthermore, the drawing of the sun wasn't that nice, like a child

without any foundation in art casually scrawled about. It was both

comical and frightening.

From another perspective, this might be a manifestation of the chaos and

madness that underlay everything.

As soon as Klein entered, he immediately sensed invisible gazes.

Some of them came from areas protected by the world barrier, while

others came from broader areas with obvious malice.

The corners of Klein's mouth couldn't help but curl up. He suddenly

turned his head and looked outside the world barrier, raising his

slippery and sinister tentacles.

This pair of eyes that seemed forged from starlight and the crystal

monocle also moved.

All of a sudden, all the attention from the cosmos shrank back. Only the

hand-drawn crimson moon was left hanging there as it flashed with light.

"Haha." Klein laughed as he came to a dark kingdom filled with night

vanilla and slumber flowers.

At the same time, the Evernight Goddess appeared at the borders of the

divine kingdom in a layered, star-speckled dress. "Her" face was covered

in a translucent black veil.

"She" didn't transform into "Her" giant form as "She" looked at him at

eye level before raising "Her" right hand and revealing the bird-shaped,

golden accessory.

At the head of the bird-shaped, golden accessory, a series of illusory

doors appeared in the bronze-like eyes, allowing a drop of colorless

water that had a strong aura of eternal stillness to land on Klein's

cold and bizarre mask.

The will of the Celestial Worthy of Heaven and Earth for Blessings

entered a state of eternal slumber. Likewise for a majority of Klein's

consciousness. All he had was a tiny bit of lucidity.

Under such circumstances, he made the mask retract, and he transformed

the cloak into a black windbreaker.

Then, he made the crystal monocle turn into a pair of black gloves,

making the eyes forged from starlight to turn into a cane inlaid with

star speckles.

This was only a change in appearance, but it didn't change anything in

reality. Once the two items were separated from Klein, they would return

to their original state. Of course, if Klein stabilized himself, he

could accommodate them and change their corresponding concepts and

symbols over and over again, allowing them to change their forms

forever.

"This can't be sustained for too long. It just delays the matter for a

while." The Evernight Goddess gently reminded him. "If the River of

Eternal Darkness's water is used repeatedly, the Lord of the Mysteries

will awaken even faster. This is because 'He' will trigger some unknown

changes and adjust 'His' condition. Similarly, the specialness of

Sefirah Castle and my blessing will gradually be erased, allowing you to

enter a state of eternal slumber."

It was as though Klein wasn't discussing his own matters. He smiled and

nodded.

"Got it."

The Evernight Goddess said in a tone that seemed to be comforting

Klein's psyche,

"Regarding this matter, the method Amon used, and the actions 'He' did

had exceeded my expectations. 'He' is indeed the true God of Deceit.

"It's not that you have no chance at all in what comes next. You can

first try to completely control Sefirah Castle and pull the will of the

Lord of the Mysteries to enter a state of eternal slumber. In the dream,

you can resist and fuse with 'Him.' I can bless you, but the most

important thing is still left to you.

"Becoming a Great Old One doesn't have any rituals involved. No ritual

can change the awakening of the Primordial One's will, but the ancient

sun god believes that the order to accommodate them can increase one's

self-awareness to a certain extent, increasing the success rate of the

matter.

"First become a Sequence 0 of a pathway, then control and fuse with the

sefirah. Only then do you accommodate the other Uniquenesses. That's the

best order.

"Become a dual-pathway true god and then controlling and fusing with a

sefirah is an order that isn't good or bad.

"Only fusing with the sefirah at the final step will be the worst

choice."

Klein smiled and said, "That's a good idea. As long as one wakes up, a

Lord of the Mysteries will be born.

"This might be 'Him,' or me. Yes, after completely controlling Sefirah

Castle and entering a state of eternal slumber, I should be able to

weaken the seal of the Western Continent, creating a weak spot that

allows one to enter and exit."

The Evernight Goddess didn't say a word when "She" heard Klein's words.

Klein continued smiling.

"This is my choice.

"I had anticipated this day a long time ago. I will finally face 'Him.'"
