When he saw Chunas wearing a monocle, the undecided emotions in Klein's chest completely calmed down.

As calm as death.

I said, Adam is here, how could His brother, who has been tracking the believers of "Fool", Blasphemer, Amon, not come... Could it be that He has been hiding outside the door, waiting for the end of the conversation between Adam and me, and gave me the deepest despair at the moment when I was completely relaxed and thought I had escaped?

Now it seems that I was probably "arranged" after destroying East Taker County's tomb. Even the idea of Teleportation coming to this island to clear traces and interfere with divination was given to me by Adam. Unless I return to Gray Fog, there is no way for me to detect the arrangement of "Spectator" King of Angel...

After that, all the developments when I returned to Backlund were actually "Imagination". He even arranged Passerby's dialogue to let me know that George III was dead. I completely lost my vigilance and "entered Gray Fog" when Backlund thought it was safe...

The only question is, how does Adam perform in the scene above Imagination and Gray Fog? But this is not difficult for Him. Although the members of Tarot Club are secretive, they are not without flaws, especially since Angel has met Adam many times... By the way, every time He saw Angel, he tried to listen to her thoughts, and thus slowly pieced together the details of Tarot Club, and deliberately exposed them in front of her, letting me, "Fool", know that it was actually just a bait to cover up another behavior...

None of these are important. The most important thing is that my identity as "Fool" has been completely exposed, and knowing Adam is equivalent to knowing Amon...

Thoughts kept flashing through Klein's mind. This was due to a symptom of "Adam phobia". After all, he had been facing the most powerful "Spectator" in the world just now, and had been suppressing his true thoughts. Now that he knew that the other party had left, even if Amon appeared again, his thoughts would inevitably diverge.

But now he couldn't move anything except his brain.

Because the moment Marionette, the parasite of Amon, pushed in, Klein's body no longer belonged to him. Not to mention activating "Creeping Hunger" and leaving Teleportation, even the eyeballs could not move on their own, and whether the heart could continue to beat was at the mercy of this top Parasite.

This is the deep-seated parasitism that Mr. Azik once said... He watched in horror and despair as Amon slowly walked from the door, sat on the single sofa where his kind-faced and dark-hearted brother had just sat, and said with a smile:

"Sit down."

"Okay."

Klein replied, sitting back on the chair.

But compared to Adam's "invitation" a few minutes ago, this time he couldn't help it, and was completely under the control of a deep parasite. Even tracking Amon's sight had to rely on the other party to help him move his eyes.

Chunas-looking Amon squeezed Crystal Monocle, leaned on the sofa, crossed his legs, and said leisurely:

"When I came in just now, your self-help ideas were very interesting. Let me count them... Evernight Goddess, Lord of Storms, and even Zarathus?

"When that paranoid arranged for you, if I hadn't used some tricks to lead Zarathus to other places, you would have faced his trap as soon as you got into Historical Void."

Have I thought about it this way... Klein was stunned for a moment, realizing that the thoughts that burst out instantly when he discovered Amon had been stolen by the other party. Even he was not aware of it at the time, and only retained thoughts of "Teleportation" to save himself.

Of course, Klein was not too surprised that Amon would help him get rid of Little Zarathus's tracking. After all, enemies of enemies can sometimes become friends, and Amon and Zarathus, who are adjacent to Sequence, obviously have huge differences in who they belong to as their "prey".

"Then I still need to thank you?"

He responded slightly sarcastically.

Hey, I can speak... Klein was startled, and immediately opened his mouth to recite Goddess's Honorific Name, but before even the first syllable was uttered, the whole idea was stolen again, so that his mouth was opened wide, but no words came out.

"Do you know why that bigot chose this location?"

Seeing him stunned, Amon smiled again, leaned forward slightly, and asked.

Of course it's because this place is far away from the North Continent, Orthodox Church, especially Evernight and Storm. Even if I can pray normally, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for Goddess's help... Klein didn't speak, but "said" in his mind.

The thoughts in his mind while being Deep Parasitism were immediately known to Amon, who nodded and said:

"If you are not stupid, then you should also know that there are not many irreconcilable conflicts between us. What I want is 'Sefirah Castle', and you happen to have it, that's all."

Sure enough, whether it is Amon or Zarathus, the purpose is "Sefirah Castle", one of Sefirah, which has the closest connection with the three Pathways: Seer, Apprentice and Marauder...

One of Klein's inner doubts was answered, but another worry immediately emerged: after coming to this world and becoming "Klein", he drew the circus fortune teller's "Fool" " brand, Tarot Club calls himself Mr. Fool, and then takes the "Inevitability sense" of Seer Sequence. Is this also an arrangement?

Could it be that there really was an ancient being who once controlled "Sefirah Castle" and wanted to use these arrangements to return to reality... Thinking of the "resurrection method" that Adam reminded him just now, he became more and more sure of his previous guess.

Seeing that Klein, who had been released from the ability to "speak", remained silent, Amon clicked his tongue and continued:

"It seems that you are hesitant about bearing this fate and taking the risk of resurrecting the owner of Sefirah Castle Oldest One in your body. This is actually easy to solve. Just give Sefirah Castle to me.

"In this way, all the things you worry about, such as the pursuit of Zarathus, the price of many gifts, the fate of the resurrection of the master of 'Sefirah Castle', and the follow-up arrangements of my paranoid brother, will be borne by me.

"And you can be a happy and worry-free Sequence 3. I can even tell you where the characteristics needed to be promoted to Sequence 2 are, as well as the rituals required to accommodate them. This is the only one you can get with your strength, no matter when time comes.

"Finally, I can continue to hold the small gathering you established regularly as 'Fool', and you can become one of my favored ones, continue to participate, and receive protection... I heard that you often act as 'Fool' and your own waiter at the same time. Tsk tsk, that's very interesting."

The waiter refers to Sequence 1's "Mystic Seer"... Klein was in a daze, but his heart was pounding. Amon's words scratched his itch, solving all the problems he was currently worried about, and even offering him promotion to Angel opportunity, and if Pathway has True God, Angel of Sequence 2 is even at the top below True God. For Klein who doesn't want to be a god, it is the most suitable position!

No, He is probably in Deception me... Just now I completely exposed the method of entering Grey Fog Space, that is, "Sefirah Castle" in Adam's "Imagination". As far as Amon is concerned, I no longer have any secrets, but He did not directly "Stealing" my destiny or Sefirah Castle, but relied on me to cooperate with Him, which means that He cannot take "Sefirah Castle" without my consent.

On the other hand, if I agree to His terms, will it be equivalent to "agreeing" to hand over the key to this thief?

Klein The thoughts in his mind quickly formed, then were quietly disrupted, and then he said in a cold tone:

"I don't agree."

He didn't even dare to "think about it" ambiguously, lest he be taken advantage of by this top Deception person.

But for "Parasite", none of Parasite's thoughts are called secrets. Amon pushed up his monocle and said with a smile on his lips:

"Frankly speaking, I really don't dare to Stealing your fate now. This can easily lead to the resurrection of the owner of 'Sefirah Castle', so I hope you can agree to the transaction... But if you are so stubborn, I can only take you to the location of my body, which is safe enough to solve these problems slowly... But for you, you will lose all the conditions for the transaction by then, and the ending may not be very happy."

Compared with the previous "temptation", this threat made Klein feel anxious again. In order to relieve this emotion, he moved the only moving mouth in his body and asked:

"Your true body? Where is it?"

Seemingly not worried at all that Klein's purpose was to delay time or conceal his true thoughts, Amon smiled and answered:

"Our destination will be 'Forsaken Land of the Gods', which is the area where City of Silver is located. Oh, I heard that you lied there that 'Fool' is 'Angel of Time' Amon? It doesn't matter, I will make this statement come true.

"By the way, there is also the 'Miracle Invoker' characteristic that you have the only chance to get. If you agree to the previous conditions, I can give it to you immediately, along with the Potion formula and Beyonder Characteristic... Moreover, your promotion can only be carried out there, because it requires bringing a piece of lost history back to the current era."

Klein was in a daze for a moment, wondering whether what Amon said was true or false.

They are all traps, Deception's methods... He once again rejected the temptation in his heart and said:

"You might as well kill me."

"Then let you return to 'Sefirah Castle' to resurrect?"

Amon shook his head with a smile, stood up from the sofa, his face and figure changed, and became the real Amon with black hair, black eyes, and a wider forehead. He waved his hand and asked Klein to stand up with him and said:

"Let's go to Forsaken Land of the Gods."

Is that really a place you can just go to? Well, since City of Silver has Amon's Avatar, it means that this "Blasphemer" has mastered the method of traveling to and from this forbidden land. For him, no gods can interfere, and the isolated "Forsaken Land of the Gods" is indeed the safest place...

Klein kept sighing in his heart, but his body was unable to make any resistance due to being parasitized. He had no choice but to follow him and push open the dilapidated door to the beach blown by the sea breeze.

This is a village on the shore of an island that has run out of fresh water and has been abandoned by the residents. It was originally a springboard for Klein to carry out many actions to interfere with divination and isolate tracking. Unexpectedly, this time it fell into the hands of the two brothers Adam Amon, and they lost completely.

Looking around, Amon sighed in boredom, and pressed his monocle. Some illusory light spots flew out from the seabirds above his head, the fish in the water, and the crustaceans on the beach, converging on Him.

So many Amon...Klein sighed, watching himself raise his left hand, "Creeping Hunger" became transparent, and his right hand gently rested on Amon's shoulder.

Does He want to directly Teleportation to "Forsaken Land of the Gods"? How is it possible...

Klein Just when he thought this, a rich color appeared in front of his eyes and entered Spirit World.

But before he could move, the sharp sound of shattering glass could be heard in his ears, and the oil painting-like color blocks also shattered, revealing the beach, sea surface and blue sky again.

"Teleportation" was disturbed?

Not only Klein was a little surprised, but also Amon looked at the sky with the eye behind the monocle, his expression slightly solemn.

Above the two people's heads, a very familiar figure of Klein was outlined.

What followed was an overwhelming amount of meteorites that made it impossible for anyone to have any desire to dodge!
