Hearing Amon's words "You're crazy", Klein tilted his head back and laughed:
"I just gave up according to your arrangement, but it was more thorough than you thought."
As he spoke, an illusory mark appeared on his forehead, which was covered with a cold and strange mask.
It was a strange light gate stained with a hint of blue-black.
And Klein was also shrouded in similar things.
From beneath the translucent dark cloak on his body, more and more slippery and evil tentacles sprang out, densely packed, stretching longer and longer, occupying the nearby sky.
With his darker eyes flickering slightly, Klein looked at Amon and smiled:
"For me, it is better for you to revive the one from the past rather than for you to become the 'Lord of Mysteries'."
After his mental state stabilized and he figured out the key to Amon's surprise attack, Klein, with a "give-up" mentality, initially lifted the suppression of the will of the "Lord of Mysteries" in his body, allowing Him to further revive.
Because of this, he was able to gain more control over the "Source Castle" at the critical moment, borrowed the power of "error", and avoided the space collapse caused by Amon.
Without waiting for Amon's response, Klein smiled with his lips curled up:
"After being contaminated by Sefirah Castle and showing signs of madness, you were able to recover immediately and use Sefirah Castle in reverse to create the effect of 'blindness and stupidity'. You were able to not enter a semi-mad state after releasing the suppression of the will of the 'Lord of Mysteries' in your body because there was an external force helping you.
"You should have a very important clone, or even a self-degraded original body like Pales, sleeping in Adam. The 'Dreamer' will personally maintain your mental state. As long as the revival of the 'Lord of Mysteries' will does not exceed the limit that Adam can bear, and control is not lost there, you will not go crazy.
"So, your most serious hidden danger is that you must always maintain a normal connection with that body. Once it is disturbed, your condition will be affected. And this connection is actually very fragile under the division of the 'Source Castle'.
"You deliberately showed a half-crazy state. Not only did you induce me to look for opportunities in this direction and step into the trap you set, but you also concealed this fact and prevented me from fighting around that connection.
"Of course, there are still many problems besides this. After all, you are not really ready yet. If I find out these things in advance, even if I am just the Angel King who has mastered the uniqueness, I will still be able to defeat you."
Amon listened quietly, raised his hand to adjust the crystal monocle clamped in the socket of his right eye, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, smiled and let out a sigh.
Seeing this, Klein smiled and shook his head:
"You are indeed powerful, cunning, and terrifying, and you are worthy of the title of 'God of Deception'. If I hadn't already considered what to do if you forced me into a desperate situation and I had no other options, I would have hesitated just now. If I had hesitated for even a moment, I would have died now."
In that case, Amon will completely control the "Source Castle" to prevent Klein from returning from the mist of history and prevent him from being resurrected.
Amon stared at the increasing number of evil tentacles extending from under Klein's dark cloak, took a slow breath, and said with a smile:
"The 'Lord of Mysteries' in you is about to truly awaken."
The smile on Klein's face already had a bit of a nervous feel:
“You can also compete on this point.
"Our next battle is simple. It's about who has more awakened will of the Lord of Mysteries in their body, and who has a deeper control over the Sefirah Castle. Fifty percent, seventy percent, ninety percent, all the way to one hundred percent. Then, bang, we explode, and He is back.
"How about it? Do you want to make a bet to see who can't hold on first? This is very exciting and interesting, and it suits your taste. It's just like the popular roulette in Feysac. Two people hold a revolver with a bullet in it, and take turns pulling the trigger at their own temples. Whoever gives up first will let the other person win. If neither of them gives up and persists to the end, there will be no winner, only "He"."
Amon's eyebrows moved, he smiled, and said nothing.
Klein looked at Him and said with a smile:
"Although you have always been known for your pursuit of excitement and your willingness to take risks, you have achieved your goals most of the time. Not only have you not lost anything, but you have gained a lot. A small part of the time, you have only lost some clones and items. You have never really suffered serious trauma or fallen into a desperate situation.
“Almost every action you take is the product of careful planning. Even if you fail, you have a way out.
"Does this mean that you value your life more than I thought? You do like excitement and seek pleasure, but doing anything for them is just an image you create. How could the real 'God of Fraud' bet on himself?
"Of course, this is just my personal guess, and it might be wrong. Anyway, do you want to take a gamble?"
Amon stroked his crystal monocle and made a "tsk" sound like Medici:
"You're really crazy."
Klein responded with a smile:
“To others, it does seem crazy.
“But for me it’s just a choice.
"Compared to you, I prefer to believe in the 'Lord of Mysteries' of the past. He is the real Old One, looking down on the universe and regarding most creatures as insects. This would actually make Him far away from reality.
"Besides, I should still have time to ask the 'Djinn' to be a witness and ask the 'Lord of Mysteries' to promise something, something that is very simple and worthless to Him."
At this point, Klein raised the corners of his mouth exaggeratedly and said:
“I don’t have much to lose, just myself.
“Some things always stand out above others.”
Amon kept smiling but said nothing.
Klein then looked around and found the "Wishing Lamp" and the "Trunsost Brass Book" among the pieces of wilderness debris floating in the void.
He immediately burst into laughter and said:
"You see, I was not punished, which means I did not lie and I told the truth."
In fact, the rules set by the "Brass Book of Trunsost" began to become invalid as early as when the "Star" descended and the Kingdom of God was shattered. The Amons later dared to try to "steal" it with multiple people, but Klein's main purpose was not to prove anything, but to show his firmness, determination, or madness.
Of course, what he said was true and he was willing to put it into practice, otherwise he would not have been able to hide it from Amon and would not have been able to put enough pressure on Him.
Amon smiled and said without any panic:
"That sounds interesting."
"Really? Then let's get started." Klein responded without hesitation, his eyes becoming increasingly darker.
Amon's smile froze slightly, and he slammed his palms together.
From beneath his classical black robe, slippery and evil tentacles also emerged one after another.
His aura changed accordingly, and his body seemed to be covered with a dark cloak.
At this moment, Amon became more like the "Lord of Mysteries".
But He was not competing with Klein to see how awakened the Lord of Mysteries was in his body. Instead, He was disguising Himself in order to deceive the Source Castle, create a corresponding "bug", and create an opportunity to escape.
For "wrong" authority to be effective between people at the same level, there are often different prerequisites:
First, the medium and the target have enough similarities; second, there is a certain connection between the two; third, there are logical contradictions between certain things; fourth, some rules are indeed imperfect; fifth, it does not directly affect the target, and builds an environment full of "errors" in the form of creating the kingdom of God...
In this regard, there are fewer restrictions on "fooling", but once the conditions are met, "errors" are more difficult to prevent and stop.
Amon now has to actively disguise himself to meet the first condition.
This is just like a virus invasion. First, you have to make the other party think they are your own people to avoid identification, and then you can paralyze the defense mechanism and achieve the corresponding purpose.
If a fruit looks like a strawberry, smells like a strawberry, and tastes like a strawberry, then it is basically considered a strawberry.
In reality, however, there are likely to be exceptions.
At this time, Amon's appearance is like the "Lord of Mysteries", his aura is like the "Lord of Mysteries", his abilities are like the "Lord of Mysteries", and his mental imprint is also like the "Lord of Mysteries". Combined with the "wrong" authority, of course, it would make "Source Castle" mistakenly believe that He is the "Lord of Mysteries" at a certain moment.
Suddenly, Klein's ruined Kingdom of the Fool completely collapsed, and the magnificent ancient palace and the mottled long table inside emerged.
The gray-white mist that was originally located below the "Source Castle" rose up and enveloped the space.
The gray mist split into two waves and collided violently at a certain place, creating one vortex after another, tearing a gap leading to reality downwards.
The power of "Source Castle" contradicted itself at this moment, as if it didn't know which "Lord of Mysteries" to obey.
Amon's figure disappeared immediately, and he used the authority of the "Gate" to rush out of the "Source Castle".
As soon as he touched the edge, his body paused and then flew backwards.
In the position of The Fool, Klein sat there with a slightly raised corner of his mouth. The strange light gates between his eyebrows and around him became more and more obvious, as if they were real.
This emitted an unimaginably strong cohesive force, like an invisible hand, pulling Amon back!
Amon's body suddenly split into countless selves.
And an illusory star gate appeared in front of every Amon.
Silently, the star gates opened at the same time, but from the boundless darkness behind the gates, slippery and evil tentacles jumped out first, blocking the Amons' escape route.
At the top of these tentacles, a little bit of bright starlight lit up, instantly enveloping the Amons.
The Amons gathered together uncontrollably and turned into a concept.
These concepts include, but are not limited to, the pointed hat, the classical black robe, the monocle, fate, time, the key, the door, the bug, and the wooden horse.
Klein slowly stood up and smiled at the passive conceptual Amon:
"You can also further awaken the will of the Lord of Mysteries, but this is different from death. It will definitely affect Adam's body."
The conceptualized Amon quickly regained his entity, and relying on the authority of the "Gate", he escaped from his previous state.
“He” smiled, but did not respond to Klein. He seized this opportunity to use the “wrong” authority to replace the real with the fake, and replaced himself with a pre-prepared clone in the outside world, swapping the positions of both parties.
This is similar to the swapping of the positions of the main body puppets in the "Fortune Teller" field, but this is at a higher level, with a different principle, and will not be disrupted by most situations.
However, Amon still failed.
He found that His "wrong" authority was being forcibly suppressed.
As Klein slowly stood up, more slippery and evil tentacles rose up around him, and the smile on his face became more exaggerated.
Then, Amon's eyes glazed over, his smile froze, and his crystal monocle lost its luster.
At the same time, the cold and strange mask on Klein's face began to move.
"Blind and stupid" effect!
The next second, he "grafted" himself together with a concept in the starry sky, and used the authority of "fooling" to influence the corresponding environment.
The slippery tentacles around him bent and aimed at Amon like revolvers.
A supernova exploded in Amon's eyes, which still had some dullness.
An unimaginable, extremely blazing sea of light rushed out, shattering His monocle and drowning His body.
