Nightmare? Klein thought for two seconds and said:

"have.

“I would dream of a small town shrouded in fog, with a red moon in the sky that was sometimes clear and sometimes blurry.

“In the center of this small town, there is a black church filled with corpses. They are wearing clothes from different eras, swaying gently in the wind, making strange noises.

"In addition to these, there is also a beautiful woman with bloody human flesh hanging from her teeth, and a mushroom man made up of countless small mushrooms..."

In order to cure his psychological problems, Klein restored his dream relatively completely, but did not explain that this was a real experience, nor did he reveal that he knew the identity of the beautiful woman and the origin of the strange mushrooms. At the same time, he concealed the existence of the transparent worm group and Zaratul.

Audrey listened carefully and attentively. Based on her extraordinary intuition and knowledge of mysticism and psychology, she said while thinking:

"Mr. World, I can imagine how horrifying and weird these dream scenes are. I can also experience the great fear that would wake you up."

Seeing that the other party across the wooden board did not refute, Audrey became more confident, quietly made a new round of "appeasement", and began to "guide":

“The fear in dreams often comes from the hidden emotions in one’s heart, and the hidden fear in one’s heart often comes from only two sources: the unknown and the irresistible.

"The terrible things you see in your dreams are just superficial. What you are really afraid of are what they represent, what they symbolize, and what is hidden behind the scenes."

As she was talking, Audrey suddenly asked:

"What is that?"

Klein was following Miss Justice's soft and sweet voice, relaxing little by little, examining his heart little by little, when he suddenly heard this question and answered subconsciously:

“It’s the existence that created all this.”

He paused for a second, then added hesitantly:

“They are both unknown and overwhelming.”

At this time, Klein already understood the real reason why he had nightmares and was in a bad mental state:

He was instinctively afraid of certain things and instinctively had latent negative emotions.

The former includes the horrifying performances of the transparent worms and Zaratul, as well as the inexplicable actions of the Eraser Angel and the fact that the dark holy emblem was successfully used to "open the door". They respectively create an emotion of irresistible despair ahead and a feeling of uncertainty as to who is the enemy, who is the friend, and who is planning what.

Yes, I was afraid of the transparent worms that looked like the "Fortune Teller" Pathway Sequence 1 "Mysterious Servant", I was afraid of Zaratul who used "Opening the Door" to achieve some unknown purpose, I was afraid of the goddess with unknown thoughts, and the Eraser Angel... Klein exhaled slowly and admitted his fear in his heart.

Audrey used Soothe again and found that Mr. World's mental tension had been relieved. She was delighted and said boldly:

"One of the main sources of fear is lack of self-confidence. Think back and see if you have ever been negligent or made a mistake in related matters, which caused your spirit to keep reminding you and hinting at you, which gradually evolved into part of the nightmare."

There have been oversights, mistakes, and reminders from the spirit... Klein pondered over Miss Justice's words and carefully sorted out the details of the things that frightened him.

Soon, his expression became more serious and he discovered a problem:

When I made the oath with the help of the Holy Sword and in the presence of the Goddess, I had not yet become a "clown" and the power of the gray fog had not yet entered the real world. It could not be detected by special gods, demigods, and spiritual creatures, but it was difficult to hide from "fate", that is, the Beyonders of the "monster" path.

The goddess also has another title, called "Queen of Disaster and Fear". She is in charge of misfortune and is one of the gods in the realm of destiny!

So, did you start to be noticed at that time?

Klein's mind gradually calmed down, and the fear caused by the unknown seemed to be alleviated by a lot.

He did not answer, nor did he wait for Miss Justice to speak again, but asked:

"If you were to face one or more difficult enemies, what would you do?"

Audrey was not annoyed by the patient's question. Instead, she thought it was a good sign and said carefully:

"First avoid, first hide, then work hard to improve yourself."

"What if the time gained by dodging and hiding cannot allow you to grow enough to face the enemy?" Klein asked, "What if the gap between the two sides is difficult to make up?"

Audrey replied half in a soothing and half serious tone:

“Find enough helpers.”

Helper... Several names flashed through Klein's mind, and he calmed down a lot, so he continued to ask:

“Even with help, we still can’t defeat the enemy?

"What if some of your helpers are planning something that might benefit you or harm you?"

Audrey was confused for a moment, and after a few seconds she thought for a while before answering:

“You can pray to the gods.”

She was almost saying “World”, “You can ask Mr. Fool for help.”

The question and answer just now made Audrey sure of one thing, that is, Mr. World's mental problems mainly come from powerful and terrifying enemies, but at a deeper level there are some concerns caused by the unknown position of his "helpers".

Pray to the gods... Klein didn't dare to say it directly. If the gods couldn't solve it either, it would be even more difficult to guess what the gods were thinking. After all, this was the kingdom of the Fool, and he himself was a Favored One.

He organized his words:

"The gods can only help in certain areas, and this isn't enough?"

…Audrey originally wanted to say that there would always be a way, and justice would surely triumph over evil, but she found it difficult to convince herself and find relevant examples for reference. Finally, she pursed her lips and said:

"I have no idea……"

Inside the "confessional", it was dark and silent. The two did not speak for a while, as if they were caught up in different inner struggles.

Finally, Audrey broke the silence and said, looking at the wooden board separating the two of them:

"No matter what, you have to do something, try your best to do something, you can't just give up and not resist."

Yes... At least I still have a lot of secrets, and some things to rely on... Klein closed his eyes and leaned against the wooden board. His thoughts gradually turned back to recent events. He was no longer tense and anxious all the time.

Audrey sensed this change and immediately added a "comfort" to him. After this, Klein's mental state was completely restored.

"I feel much better. Thank you for your treatment. How much do you need for the consultation?" Klein asked.

In fact, I should thank you for providing the case... Audrey didn't really want to collect the consultation fee. Looking at the wooden partition in the deep darkness, she couldn't help but recall Mr. "World"'s usual gloomy, cold, experienced and ruthless performance.

Hmm...his mental problems should also be due to his personality...Audrey suddenly had an inspiration, and the corners of her mouth slowly curled up as she said:

“The consultation fee I need is very small.

"Well, wish me happiness!"

...What's going on? Klein was stunned for a moment, and almost forgot that he was wearing the character of Gehrman Sparrow.

He had never heard of such a request!

Klein hesitated for a while, and finally spoke in a cold voice as "The World":

"Since you ask so...

"I wish you happiness."

Audrey's smile suddenly widened:

“I wish you happiness too!

"Mr. World, don't keep things to yourself. Smile more and be happier. This can eliminate many hidden dangers.

"Okay, your mental problem has been resolved, but you will need to come back for a follow-up visit in a few days or next week."

Klein didn't know how to respond, so he could only say "hmm".

Then, he heard the door opposite him creak open, and from the Fool’s perspective, he saw Miss Justice exit the Confessional and straighten her body.

After letting the other party return to the real world, Klein did not dare to stay above the gray fog for too long. He soon left here and lay down on his bed.

At this time, his mental state recovered, and he relaxed physically and mentally, and then he realized one thing, that is, he had digested a lot of the magic potion of "Master of Secret Puppets", and the progress was far beyond expectations!

Is this because in the foggy town, he relied on the "secret puppet" to deceive the demigod Panatia and manipulated her and Mr. A to complete the performance as expected? So, in addition to "try to be behind the scenes" and "make each secret puppet have its own personality to make it more real", the rules of the "secret puppet master" also include "using your own secret puppet as a guide to manipulate the enemy and perform a puppet show in reality"? Klein muttered to himself thoughtfully, thinking that maybe he could digest the potion within this year.

He exhaled with mixed emotions, turned his head, looked at the crimson moonlight shining through the curtains, and said silently:

"The missing servant should have been found, and the clues I left behind should have been discovered..."

…………

In the basement of St. Samuel's Church, Leonard, Cindy, Bob and others looked at Captain Soster who had just returned from the meeting, and waited patiently for him to introduce new clues.

Soest took a sip of the fragrant coffee and said:

"The missing servant has been found.

“In the room where he was placed, there were some clothes left by the intruders.

"It has been confirmed that this belongs to Gehrman Sparrow, a crazy adventurer who was active on the sea before."

How come another crazy adventurer is involved... Leonard was slightly surprised and asked directly:

"When did he come to Backlund?"

"No one knows. The only thing we know for sure is that this crazy adventurer has appeared on the sea in recent weeks and hunted down some pirates." Soest said at a moderate pace. "The Church of the Storm knows more, and MI9 seems to know a lot too. They will send someone to contact them."

Just as Soest had finished his explanation, a telegram came in.

It came from the "Night Watchers" team of Deasy County, and the decoded content was:

"Dwayne Dantès' current identity is fake. He has been in the southern continent for the past ten years and has accumulated a lot of wealth through adventures... Further confirmation will take time because it is very chaotic there, there are frequent wars, and the regions change frequently."
