Sure enough, this is the Tingen City street where "Klein Moretti" and "Angel Granger" live, and it is exactly the house where the brothers and sisters of the Moretti family lived before going to Backlund...

Audrey Memories buried deep in my heart emerged.

When Miss Empress, Mr. World transformed into Christine and Dawn returned to Backlund to integrate into the upper-class social circle, Audrey once because of Psychology Alchemists's former "arrogant" Mr., Psychological Suggestion of Hvin Rambis tried to find the true identities of the two people, and have investigated the two identities of "Klein" and "Angel", and found out that they still have relatives alive and have lived in Tingen City.

At that time, the two addresses Daffodil Street No. 2 and No. 6 were remembered by Audrey. During the adventure of "Hall of Truth", he confirmed the real names of "The World" and "Empress" and connected these clues together. Although there was no further investigation, it left a deep impression after all. At this time, Depths of Consciousness immediately recalled it after entering the submersible.

It turned out that God had an unforgettable experience in Tingen City's past as an ordinary person... She sighed with emotion. She first looked around to confirm that the environment was safe. The Passerby generated in her subconscious also ignored her as a visitor. Then she slowly came to the door of the two-story house with a gray-blue appearance and a chimney. She did not knock on the door, but looked inward at the bay window of the living room.

The gas lamp in the room gave off a warm yellow light. Audrey looked past the single sofa, high-back chair and coffee table to the dining room, which together with the living room and kitchen constituted the overall space on the first floor. A rectangular wooden table there was full of people, and several steaming dishes were already served. The relaxed conversation and the crisp sound of tableware clashing formed a warm dining scene.

Audrey's pupils expanded slightly, and she immediately discovered that she knew almost all the people at the table.

The man wearing a black vest and with a high hairline is Benson·Moretti who has worked at Loen Charity Student Aid Fund for a period of time. The blond woman sitting next to him is wearing a simple white dress. It was Lily Granger who married Benson two years ago. Audrey had used Psychological Invisibility to secretly attend their wedding, so he recognized them immediately.

Sitting opposite Benson was Klein Moretti, who had the same black hair and brown eyes, a much younger appearance and a very safe hairline. When the two brothers sat together, Audrey discovered that their faces were indeed somewhat similar, but the elder brother looked older due to hair volume and years of fatigue.

On his left side is Melissa·Moretti with long black hair draped behind him like silk and a smile on his face. Audrey has also met this girl several times at Student Aid Fund's work. Because of the relationship between the world and Empress, he is very concerned about this college student who likes mechanical equipment, and has a close relationship with the two of them. Under his instruction, he secretly told some basic information about Acting Method and the extraordinary world to the newly promoted Beyonder who had taken "Savant" Potion.

Seeing a few people sitting in a relaxed posture in the restaurant with a somewhat old decoration and not a large area, Audrey actually felt that this scene was more dazzling than the charity party held by King, attended by Duke, the general and the ambassador.

Is this what "Goddess of Calamity" subconsciously longs for most... But as the master of the dream, why is He not there... Audrey looked away from the dining table and looked towards the kitchen farther inside. Unsurprisingly, he found The figure with heavy gloves on his hands carrying a huge soup pot came to the table and stood next to Klein who had a bookish air rather than Gehrman's cold, Dawn mature Klein.

She is "Empress" Miss, Angel Granger, who has the same long pale blond hair, purple eyes, and bright and majestic appearance as her cousin, but lacks the proper allure.

Putting the soup pot in the center of the table, Angel took off his gloves and said to everyone with a smile:

"This is the long-awaited pea and lamb stew."

As she spoke, she opened the lid of the pot, and visible steam rose up. There seemed to be light emanating from the pot, making the entire restaurant a little brighter.

"Wow..."

Several other people cooperated and sat up straight, looking intoxicated.

This scene is a bit exaggerated. Could it be that "Empress" Miss's ultimate dream is to cook a pot of amazing food in front of other people... Audrey instinctively began to analyze the dream, and then was horrified to find that Potion in the body had been digested to a considerable extent.

This, this involves the secret deep in God's heart... She wanted to sneak away, but she couldn't take her eyes away from Miss Empress, who was enjoying the praise of others and the corners of her mouth were raised, and Demoness's charm was gradually revealed.

Suddenly, she noticed a small head popping up from the table. It seemed like a child that was constantly jumping up and trying to get on the table.

It was a girl with long blond hair and brown eyes. After jumping constantly, Angel picked her up and placed her on the only empty chair aside.

Audrey then saw clearly that the girl's appearance was somewhat similar to Angel, especially the curvature of her face and her eyes that seemed to be able to speak.

Could it be that... she had a reasonable guess.

Is that the child of Mr. "World" and "Empress" Miss?

Audrey felt that his heartbeat was a lot faster, but he immediately rejected the idea. After all, the time did not match up at all, and he had never heard that the two Tarot Club members had a child. On the contrary, their brother and cousin got married two years ago, and a year ago...

Thinking of this, Audrey suddenly realized, his eyes lingered on Benson's brown eyes and Lily's blond hair for a moment.

It turned out to be her niece... As for the age issue, I'm afraid it was a change in the subconscious dream. This might be a family dinner in the "future"... For some reason, she breathed a long sigh of relief, shrank her body, and looked at the dinner party between Moretti's family and Granger's family by the bay window. Watching them share the fragrant mutton stew, talking about Benson's difficulties at work, Lily's trivial matters in life, Melissa's marriage troubles, and Angel and Klein's relationship problems.

After the meal, Benson and Lily left the house with the little girl and walked toward the distance along Daffodil Street, seemingly going to the circus not far away. This also allowed Audrey to truly confirm the girl's identity.

She did not follow Benson's family, but quietly walked into the living room while the door was still open. She watched Melissa carry a strange machine into the study, and then noticed that Angel and Klein went up to the second floor one after the other.

What are they going to do...Audrey subconsciously wanted to follow, but stopped at Spirituality's reminder.

She always felt that something would happen if she followed like this, such as seeing some pictures that made people lose control... She frowned and decided between quickly digesting Potion, completing the ritual, or exploring cautiously, and finally decided to look elsewhere in the room.

Although she gained a lot from the warm moment just now, she still felt that the purpose of this trip had not been truly realized, and there were still some key things missing that would allow her to gain insight into the hidden things deep in God's heart.

Soon, she noticed a locked wooden door next to the stairs leading to the second floor. Based on the structure of the house, it probably led to the basement.

Although there was no key, it was not difficult for "Dream Weaver". Audrey adjusted the degree of fit between himself and his subconscious, and soon made his body transparent. He passed directly through the door and followed the dim wooden ladder to the cramped and humid Underground Area.

There was only a slow-burning, dim candle lit here, and among the stacks of wooden shelves and boxes squatted a girl with her head buried in her arms.

Audrey noticed that she also had blond hair and was wearing a black dress. The skin of her bare arms and calves had a strange color that seemed to absorb light. If it weren't for the candlelight, her whole person would almost blend into the darkness.

Blonde hair... Could this be the child of Miss Empress and Mr. World... But why was he locked up in the basement?

Audrey stopped in surprise, and did not dare to move forward for a moment, so as not to disturb the girl who was locked in Underground Area and seemed to be sobbing silently.

Based on her experience in countless dreams, such things buried deep underground or locked in secret rooms, whether they are people or objects, indicate a side that the dream owner does not want to show, such as property with shady origins, an illegitimate child that no one knows about, or evidence of some crimes.

But it is hard for Audrey to imagine that a girl buried deep in a locked room deep in God's dream could be such a symbol.

It is impossible that the child born by Two Gods is some kind of taboo, so it must be locked here subconsciously... She carefully conducted psychological analysis.

By the way, there is another possibility. This is not the child of "Goddess of Calamity" and "Fool", but another personality of the former. This has appeared in the dreams of people with disguised identities or multiple personalities. The evidence is the exact same appearance... Audrey had some guesses and took two steps forward. The sound of footsteps woke up the girl who was burying her head in tears.

The girl suddenly raised her head and looked at her with tearful eyes. The purple eyes under her bangs were almost exactly the same as Angel's, but the face that had not yet fully grown made Audrey confirm her guess.

Sure enough, this represents a side of Miss Empress's personality that he doesn't want to show, but why does it look like an underage girl? Does this represent a certain period of his past life, or is it his "childish" self?

At this moment, Audrey thought of "Mirror Person" who was closely related to Demoness Pathway, and thought of being "Hunter" Pathway Angel, "Chariot" Miss, was just confirmed to be the clone of Miss Empress.

But she knows that what she sees now may not be the real situation. After all, in this God latent Depths of Consciousness, things that may have a fatal impact on herself who is not Angel have been covered up in advance or changed their form.

Out of caution, Audrey did not continue to move forward and get closer to the blond girl, and did not dare to use the ability of "Dream Weaver" to sneak into the opponent's Sea of Collective Subconscious and step on the opponent's Mind Island. Instead, he slowly retreated under the opponent's silent gaze and returned to the wooden ladder.

After almost stepping into the trap of "Mirror Person" in the mirror passage just now, Audrey does not think that Miss Empress's promise to open the subconscious means that it is absolutely safe here. Some things may seem sparse and ordinary to God, but they are fatal to Saint of Sequence 3.

But just as she stepped onto the stairs back to the ground, a continuous roar like a drum suddenly came to her ears, and everything in front of her was shrouded in a glow that came from nowhere.

At this moment, Audrey noticed that there were several figures in the basement, which was as bright as daylight. They were existences that were previously outside the candlelight range and hidden in the shadows.

One man was wearing black armor, his hair was as red as blood, his face was chiselled, and his blue eyes were full of madness; the other man was wearing white armor with the opposite color, his appearance and hair style were quite similar, and his expression was a little dull.

Between the two of them, a strange creature with a black and white body intertwined and seemingly having three heads was flat as if imprinted on the damp wall. However, if you look closely, you will find that its black head looks like a monster and its white head looks like a beautiful woman showing different expressions, and the face of the middle head cannot be seen clearly.

The three figures illuminated by the glow disappeared in an instant. Audrey's eyes were dazzled, and he found that they had disappeared into the corner of the basement, leaving only bright spots like mirror reflections.

The girl squatting on the ground also turned her head and looked in that direction with a disgusted expression.

This is... another manifestation of the subconscious mind of "Goddess of Calamity"? But how could they be two men and a strange creature... Wait, I can't remember their appearance... Audrey looked around, only to find that the glow dissipated and the basement with only candlelight became extremely dark again, as if to prevent her from further exploration.

Stop... She felt excited in her heart, turned back without hesitation, strode away from Underground Area, made her body transparent again, walked through the locked door and returned to the living room.

It wasn't until it was confirmed that Melissa was still playing with the mechanical equipment she was interested in in the study, and that Angel and Klein had not come down from the second floor, that Audrey breathed a sigh of relief and reviewed the short exploration just now.

There is no doubt that the three figures that were swallowed up by the mirror and were not allowed to be seen clearly or written down by her are the real danger in this dream. They are the terrifying things hidden by an God and latent Depths of Consciousness. As long as they are truly seen and imprinted in her mind, they will make her lose control and go crazy.

No matter how warm it looks, God's dreams are always extremely dangerous... but where did that flash of light come from? If there was only candlelight, maybe I wouldn't notice anything else in the corner of the basement... Audrey was a little confused. She came to the bay window and looked outside, and found that there was nothing unusual on the street, and then she turned her gaze to the sky.

Suddenly, another bolt of lightning appeared along with continuous thunder, lighting up the entire sky.

There was a hazy shadow shrouded in the direction of the lightning. At the edge of the shadow, half of an illusory tower stood out. It seemed to be made of thick books, with a row of brass eyes on each floor until it extended into the lightning.

Lightning, shadows, and towers... Audrey's pupils shrank, and the three God they corresponded to immediately appeared in his mind.

She does not think that the abnormality in the dream is just a meaningless weather change. God's kingdom of God is all in Astral World. They have certain connections with each other and can influence each other. Moreover, the lightning that illuminated the basement just now was obviously not the will of "Goddess of Calamity", but some kind of accident, some kind of interference from other God.

Two years ago, "True Creator" merged with "Visionary", and then "Eternal Blazing Sun" fell. Now, Storm and Wisdom, both Adjacent Pathways, are also mixed with "Shadow"... Looking at the mutated celestial phenomenon, Audrey suddenly gained insight.

Then Two Gods will also become part of "True Creator"...

At this moment, she felt that her "Dream Weaver" Potion had been completely digested, and she had completed the promotion ceremony to Sequence 2 "Discerner" in advance, and was ready to become Angel.

PS: Today's update is a little late, and the amount is not much. Mainly because I was expected to only have a half-day shift today, but ended up working a full day...
