Quietly, Klein's figure disappeared in front of Angel, leaving only a gray-white mist that quickly dissipated.
It was like the fog that enveloped everyone when Tarot Club held weekly gatherings, making Angel feel a familiar atmosphere.
After the evil spirit "Dark Angel" pointed it out, she understood that it was the breath of Sefirah belonging to "Sefirah Castle".
One of Nine Source Qualities, once owned by "Blessing of the Primordial Yellow Celestial Worthy", used to isolate Western Continent from other areas, sealing seven parts of Sefirah's power except it and "Chaos Sea".
The answer to why Dark Angel can see the aura of "Sefirah Castle" in Klein is ready to be revealed.
This is related to Mr. "Fool" who is above Gray Fog, holds regular meetings with Tarot Club, and has a somewhat special attitude towards Klein. According to Angel's previous speculation was that he was most likely once the Sequence 0 of "Seer" Pathway, but fell or fell down due to some reason, and is gradually regaining his power.
What is that Klein that has His "Sefirah Castle" breath, joined Tarot Club to become the "world", and walks on the same Pathway as Him?
A Marionette that is prepared in advance and can be controlled at any time?
Like Mr. Azik, it can become the body of the resurrection medium of "Death" Salinger at any time?
A negative personality entity like Ancient Sun God like "Dark Angel" Sastiel?
Or will it be like Ancient Sun God and "Grisha", even if they become God, they can't escape the fate of Primordial waking up in the body?
Having seen and experienced the resurrection methods of digital God, various possibilities naturally emerged in her mind, and her eyes became colder as she looked at the gray mist.
Within the sensing range of her Spirituality, a "Rabbit Gehrman" whose interior was almost hollowed out and had only its appearance was standing quietly, with strips of Spirit Body Threads that she could not see connecting it to the Klein body that entered Historical Void.
As long as Angel is willing, he can instantly use the curse or Flames of Destruction to kill Marionette, and transmit the damage to the body of unknown location through Spirit Body Threads.
But Angel didn't do anything. He stayed with the mist in the dusk without moving, as if he had turned into a statue.
In the fog of History Void, Klein felt as if he had turned into countless squirming transparent "Worm of Spirit", crawling away and no longer being a whole.
This is not only a mental feeling, his body under the windbreaker and top hat really disintegrated quickly, and Distortion worms came out one after another, flying towards different fragments in Historical Void, each occupying one place, overlapping and merging with the images belonging to "Klein".
That was just from Tingen City Iron Cross Street got up from the cold floor in the rental apartment, with a gunshot wound on his head that has not yet healed; it was him who formally met Angel on Public Carriage, leaving a stunning memory in his heart; it was him who lay on the ground with a knife in his chest, brushed against death, and was saved by Angel; it was him who was saved by Angel; He was so excited that he cried and laughed when he saw Angel killing Lanevus in the sewer of Backlund; he was thrown on the bed by Angel and recognized each other again; he was the one who killed Ince Zangwill with his own hands and proposed to Angel on the spot...
"Who am I?"
"Which one is the real me?"
"I am the subject..."
"You are all my clones!"
Those Worm of Spirit were affected by the emotions of Klein in the historical fragments, and naturally believed that they were the subjects and the real "Klein". They resisted the tendency of aggregation and even began to become hostile to other Worm of Spirit. However, because they had just split up and their original spirits still remained, they did not start attacking each other or hiding in the depths of the mist.
At this moment, circles of ripples like water waves appeared in the Historical Void that lasted for five epochs. It was so small that it was almost impossible to detect, but it was obvious enough to the split Worm of Spirit.
That was the collision between ancient history and the current era that Klein felt in History Void after sending away the City of Silver immigration team.
This is the ripple caused by the behavior of Klein, which has a strong attraction for the "Worm of Spirit" he split, causing them to poke their heads out of the historical fragments and look in the same direction.
Then, a certain Worm of Spirit couldn't resist this tendency of attraction and aggregation, and escaped from the embrace of Angel in that clip, flying towards the core of the ripples.
Then the second, third...
As some Worm of Spirit came together and merged into Vortex of Distortion, Klein's consciousness also recovered to a certain extent after the split.
While he made the Vortex that made up himself spin faster to form a greater attraction, attracting more and more "Worm of Spirit", he stretched out his smooth and transparent but very flexible tentacles, going deep into those distant historical fragments, catching fish that had slipped through the net and stuffing them back into Vortex who were unwilling to accept their fate.
After the last Worm of Spirit returned to the main body, the group of Vortex continued to Distortion deform, regrew its limbs and head, retracted those slippery tentacles, returned to the empty windbreaker, and put on a silk top hat.
After the clothes and hats were put on, the human figure pieced together by Distortion worms condensed skin, grew hair and facial features.
This is not the slightly thin and cold image of Gehrman Sparrow, but Klein Moretti who is a bit bookish, but much stronger than before, with a height of 1.8 meters.
With a swish, Klein returned to reality from Historical Void, reappeared under the orange dusk, and stood in front of Angel.
A little taller than her, is this the effect of promotion, or is it a subconscious change when I reassembled my image just now... Klein just made a guess, and saw his current image from Angel Deep Purple's eyes.
It was as if the soul and shadow had been split by the corrupted power of "Dark Angel" and divided into two different images from the middle. The left side was shrouded in gray-white mist, covering the facial features and skin, leaving only a slightly smiling eye. On the other side, there were countless Worm of Spirits crawling under the skin. The eyes were bloodshot and almost crazy.
At the same time, two competing and balancing consciousnesses appeared in his mind.
A high and irresistible idea from Beyonder Characteristic, which he had just fused but had not completely mastered yet, slowly awakened a little and transmitted countless images. Some of them are the occult knowledge of "Miracle Invoker"'s different abilities, some are magnificent scenes of huge celestial bodies in the starry sky, and some are scenes of world-changing moments in Historical Void. Each picture is full of crazy and condescending Mental Imprint, making him almost think that he has become God.
The other stream comes from crimson stars and shining bright spots of prayer, which contain the prayers of Tarot Club members such as "Empress" and "Hanged Man", as well as the prayers of Sea God and Fool believers. Together they form an image of a mysterious and great existence shrouded in gray-white mist.
Two different consciousnesses fight against each other, and the different images on both sides are reflected in Klein's body. They are constantly tug-of-war, moving closer to gray for a moment, making him as a whole become "Fool" in the eyes of others, and approaching crazy for a moment, causing cold and cruel thoughts to spread in his heart.
Just when Klein was almost torn apart by the two, another strange scene appeared in the "Miracle Invoker" characteristic in his body:
A demonic wolf with eight legs and covered with short black hair ran fast in the wilderness. It sometimes approached its own kind, played with one of the slightly smaller demonic wolves with always calm eyes, and sometimes approached human tribes, using Spirit Body Threads to steal some as its own reserve of Marionette.
At that time, he was happy, and at other times he was serious, but his thoughts and memories that were completely different from those of human beings soon covered part of Mental Imprint, who was aloof and full of divinity, causing the battle between the two different consciousnesses in Klein's body to suddenly slow down, giving him a little room for buffering.
At the same time, his palms formed by Distortion worms were also tightly held by a pair of slender, warm hands.
It's her, she has always been by my side... Klein's expression slowly relaxed, and his own will took over, coordinating the gray mist composed of prayer and faith in his body, the crazy thoughts composed of Mental Imprint, and the memory brought by the remaining spiritual imprint of the demon wolf Cottar, so that they could restore their fragile balance.
In the eyes of Angel, Klein has also restored the image of black hair, brown eyes and smooth skin.
"Promotion successful?"
Although she could guess this from the other party's behavior, she still asked cautiously.
Klein nodded, and with the help of the warmth of the other person's hand holding his and the caring tone, he regained his memory and humanity before taking Potion, and initially stabilized his condition.
He already has the personality of Angel and has become the real "Miracle Invoker".
Recalling the short but thrilling promotion process just now, Klein finally understood why "True Creator" asked him to choose Beyonder Characteristic of "Demonic Wolf" Cottar, instead of the Sequence 2 separated from the characteristics of "Mystic Seer" for promotion.
Under the influence of the terrifying Mental Imprint in Beyonder Characteristic, even if Klein used the identity of "Fool" to gain the faith of Moon City and City of Silver, and by the way pointed the believers of "Sea God" at himself, he almost lost control and became a crazy and cold monster.
In this process, Cottar's memory and his remaining imprints became a boost to the "human" side, allowing Klein to barely overcome the divinity in his body, reach a fragile balance, and restore himself.
Without the help of this "God of Wishes", Klein predicts that he might eventually be able to rely on his faith as an anchor, and with the final help of Angel, he can barely balance the conflict between divinity and humanity. This will also leave many hidden dangers, and even bigger problems will break out later.
At this time, he suddenly remembered the words of "Dark Angel" Sastiel:
"Primordial has awakened in my body."
If I use that characteristic to get promoted, will it cause "Primordial" to wake up in my body... No, what I guessed before was not Original Creator, but the "Lord of Mysteries", "Blessing of the Primordial Yellow Celestial Worthy"... Several thoughts popped into Klein's mind. Just when he was about to continue to examine his physical condition and master the various abilities of "Miracle Invoker", Angel in front of him said seriously:
"Now that the promotion is successful, let's talk about another thing.
"About your relationship with Mr. 'Fool'."
Relationship? Why does it sound like catching someone raping... This is probably because of the "Sefirah Castle aura" of "Dark Angel", but I was ready to tell the truth before. Her "Mirror Person" also made me promoted to Sequence 2 and then I showed my cards to her... After thinking about it in my mind, Klein's expression changed slightly and he said:
"I am 'Fool'."
