The dream projection of the "Goddess of Night" replied with a slight smile:

"If it's just to support a 'Lord of Mysteries', then I should bet on Amon. At least his chance of success is much higher than yours."

Without waiting for Klein to ask again, “He” continued speaking in a dreamlike tone:

"That era buried in the past is our common memory and the critical period when our humanity was born, sprouted and grew. Even though I have a long life, it is still my best memory.

"You have its mark, so I am more willing to help you."

Love the house and love the dog... Klein summed it up in his mind with an idiom.

At this moment, he thought of the words that Emperor Roselle wrote in his diary:

"home".

In his emotion-filled silence, the dream projection of the "Goddess of Night" said:

“When you are ready, you can go to the main peak of the Hornachis Mountains anytime.

"Of course, it is your freedom to choose. No one will force you, and no one can force you. You can choose to stop at a certain stage, not become the Old One, and not let the 'Lord of Mysteries' awaken in your body. Then, when the end of the world comes, take the people and things you want to protect, 'roam' to other galaxies and other planets, avoid the gaze of the Outer Gods, and rebuild a civilization."

Klein had thought about this issue a long time ago. After a moment of silence, he said:

"I don't know if Russell ever said: You can hide for a while, but you can't hide forever."

He spoke to the "Goddess of Night" in Giant language, and the translation of that idiom was a little strange:

Avoidance is only a temporary strategy and cannot serve as a long-term plan.

After a pause, Klein continued:

"Although the universe is vast and boundless, the Outer Gods are obviously more familiar with it than we are, and are more powerful. They directly represent a certain aspect of the entire universe, and it is very difficult to hide from their search. Moreover, even if we succeed, we can only be safe for a period of time. The recreated civilization will be destroyed again within a thousand years. By then, we will not even have the chance to become the old ones, and we will never be able to redeem ourselves."

This is because in order to successfully escape when the outer gods invade, one must give up all source substances. Otherwise, one will definitely become the focus of their attention. Not to mention roaming the starry sky, even whether one can survive the initial round of attacks is unknown.

The dream projection of the "Goddess of Night" spoke softly:

"Except for the things that were directly torn from the Outer Gods, the Outer Gods will only take away the uniqueness and high-sequence Beyonder characteristics of the other paths. They may not care and will not spend too much energy searching for them."

"You also said that it's just 'not necessarily'. The Outer Gods should still have a certain desire for the uniqueness of similar fields and high-sequence Beyonder characteristics, which can help them get closer to the pillars." Klein responded calmly, "We can't pin our hopes on their moods. They have no mercy at all."

The dream projection of the "Goddess of Night" nodded and said:

"In this regard, you are more clear-headed than Roselle. Of course, that's also because he knew about the Old Ones and the Outer Gods too late."

He then said:

"You have another choice: use Pales's method to lower your status and let Amon steal the Sefirah Castle. This way, you can live well as a Sequence 1 Archangel without having to worry about the Lord of Mysteries awakening in your body all the time, and you don't have to be too tired."

In the religious texts of the Church of Evernight, there is a division between angels and archangels. Klein has always speculated that the latter refers to Sequence 1, and today it was finally confirmed.

Of course, this is just the standard of one church and cannot represent others.

After listening to the words of the Goddess of Night, Klein was silent for a long time before he asked:

"Can Amon be trusted?"

The dream projection of the "Goddess of Night" said frankly:

"I can't give you a definite answer."

Klein asked again:

“If the Lord of Mysteries awakens in Amon’s body, will He take back all the high-sequence Beyonder characteristics of the three paths of Diviner, Thief, and Apprentice?”

“I don’t know.” The dream projection of the “Goddess of Night” answered in the same tone.

Klein was silent again, and after a while he said:

“Personally, I don’t aspire to become the Old One, but I cannot disappoint or abandon those beings who have placed their bets on me. They have all helped me in one way or another.

“Once Amon becomes the ‘Lord of Mysteries’, he will definitely help the Ancient Sun God take back the uniqueness and Sequence 1 Beyonder characteristics from the ‘Lord of Storms’ and the ‘God of Knowledge and Wisdom’, leading to their downfall.

"Besides, Amon is a reckless god."

The dream projection of the "Goddess of Night" nodded slightly and said:

"You have maintained your humanity quite well."

After making up his mind, Klein shook off his previous depressed state and smiled when he heard the words:

"If human nature is not well maintained and the divine nature gains the upper hand, I will make a similar choice, because the divine nature's instinct is to gather around me."

The dream projection of the "Goddess of Night" laughed softly:

"Go and make your preparations, and go to see Antigonus as soon as possible."

Klein nodded, and suddenly remembered something, and asked hurriedly:

"Has Amon already accommodated the uniqueness of the 'Apprentice' path through the ritual of Mr. 'Gate'?"

The dream projection of the "Goddess of Night" slowly replied:

“If it’s something else, then it definitely doesn’t exist.

“But if it’s Amon, there’s a 50% chance.

"He's adventurous and thrill-seeking by nature."

Klein said no more. He watched the projection of the "Goddess of Night" disappear before him and watched the dream gently collapse.

The altar that had not yet been cleaned up appeared in his sight again.

For him, going to the main peak of the Hornachis Mountains and facing the ancestor of the Antigonus family did not require much preparation. He mainly relied on the "Source Castle" to create an avatar and steal the "Mysterious Servant" extraordinary characteristic that once belonged to Zaratul and had not yet digested it, so that the main body could be in a state that could accommodate uniqueness.

——As his mental state stabilized, even without the remaining mental imprint of Zaratul, Klein could rely on his own humanity, consciousness, and anchor to barely suppress the partial will of the resurrected "Tianzun".

However, before that, Klein's spiritual intuition told him that he should do something else.

After taking a look around, he packed up the altar and dragged Dwayne Dantès' study out of the mist of history.

Sitting at the table, Klein spread out the paper and picked up the pen to write a letter to Mr. Azik.

Because he had just finished writing the previous letter, the content of this letter was not very long. He only briefly mentioned the "River of Eternal Darkness" under Calderon and the Death Marks wandering on both sides of the tributaries. He focused on talking about how he saw multiple Azik Eggers and his speculations about this.

After folding the letter, Klein took out the Azik copper whistle, put it to his mouth, and blew it.

The Skeleton Messenger appeared in the size of a normal human, knelt on one knee, and spread out his palms.

After Klein handed the letter to it, he took out a gold coin from Sefirah Castle:

“This is thanks for the long trouble.

"If you are unable to receive it of your own accord, give it to your Master, and He will distribute it."

This gold coin was one of Klein's five gold coins that had been tainted with the aura of Sefirah Castle and had undergone some mutations.

He had used one of the coins to pay the courier lady's postage, and lost one to Maric when he was playing cards with him.

The Skeleton Messenger was stunned for nearly five seconds before he dared not disobey Klein's words and closed his finger bones, holding the letter and gold coins at the same time.

It then disintegrated, falling to the ground like a waterfall, and drilled in.

Then, Klein took out another gold coin and put it in his pocket.

At the same time, he asked the "Spirit Bugs" on duty in "Source Castle" to take a look at a certain crimson star.

…………

In East Balam, inside a church belonging to the goddess of night.

As one of the first demigods to participate in the campaign to siege the Rose School, Leonard Mitchell had already used a seal to reach the southern continent.

However, he did not gain anything for the time being, because the demigods of the Rose School seemed to have smelled the danger in the air and hid themselves at the same time.

This forced Leonard to wait patiently and be ready to be deployed at any time.

With nothing to do, he put on red gloves, entered the church's large prayer hall, and performed his daily prayers fairly devoutly.

In the dark and peaceful environment, he seemed to have fallen asleep.

After an unknown amount of time, Leonard opened his eyes, stood up, and walked along the aisle toward the door.

At this moment, he saw a familiar figure. It was Klein Moretti, who was wearing a top hat, formal suit, black hair and brown eyes.

Leonard's pupils dilated and his eyebrows slightly raised. Klein, who was also praying, put down his hands, stood up, walked past him, and approached the altar step by step.

During this process, neither of them spoke, as if the other was just a stranger.

After arriving at the offering box near the altar, Klein took out a gold coin from his pocket and threw it in with a serious expression.

Then he changed direction and left the church through another door.

Leonard stood sideways in the main aisle, looking at the scene with confusion, frowning slightly.

At this moment, the slightly old voice of Pales Zoroast echoed in his mind:

"Find a chance to get that gold coin."

…………

Backlund, inside a house.

Will Auceptin held a small silver spoon and concentrated on scooping the light green ice cream in front of him.

Suddenly, He stretched out His left hand and blocked the side of the food.

On the chair next to Him, the figure of Dwayne Dantès instantly appeared.

“I seem to have missed your birthday twice.” Klein said with a smile, “This is a belated gift.”

As he spoke, he took out a gold coin and pushed it to Will Auceptin:

"Here's a lucky coin for you."

Will was stunned for two seconds, then muttered:

"A birth gift is a lucky charm, and a birthday gift is a lucky gold coin. You really have no creativity."

As he spoke, he stretched out his chubby little hand and quickly took the gold coin back.

Klein smiled, stood up, and disappeared.
