Patient

Lumian knew, of course, that the person before him was Amon. Although the other person's appearance differed somewhat from that of Monet and the other Amon, the Monocle in his right eye, as well as his overall image and demeanor, unmistakably indicated that he was indeed Amon.

The question is, why is Amon here? And why does He call Termiboros?

Lumian saw those silvery-black lights flying out from within his own body, from the collapsing seal of Mr. The Fool, so why did they turn into Amon?

That's why Lumian was stunned just now.

Could it be that during their previous encounters, Amon secretly bypassed Mr. The Fool's seal, hid within himself, and replaced Termiboros?

What is the seal on Mr. The Fool?

Shocked and confused, Lumian suppressed his emotions, for he had more important things to do.

He stood up, intending to pick up the "Sword of Courage" and then use the "Black Tear's" ability to Mirror Traversal to reach Franca, Jenna, and the others to help them fight against Higdon.

Vazan Sanson and Harrison remained standing there, motionless, like Statues.

Amon, who called himself Termiboros, raised his hand to stop Lumian.

He glanced at the transparent boundary reflecting the battle between Franca and the others and Higdon, and said with a smile, "I've already sealed their Destiny of not being killed for ten minutes. You still have some time. As for what will happen after ten minutes, that's up to your own choice."

Lumian turned his gaze back to Amon, removing the "Black Tear" Forehead Ornament and tucking it back into the Independent Space within his "Traveler's Bag" to prevent any further Negative Effect, before asking in a deep voice, "What choice?"

Before Amon could respond, he couldn't help but ask another question:

"When did you become Termiboros?"

As he spoke, Lumian temporarily put away the "Demon’s Whisper" Bone Ring.

Amon's lips curled up slightly:

"A very, very long time ago, when you first heard this name, Termiboros was already synonymous with me."

At this point, the former Angel King carried a hint of mockery:

"In the dream in the Cordou Village, the Warlock symbolizes the Power of Fate. The Warlock's death and burial in the tomb symbolize that the Power of Fate has lost its original master, that is, the real Termiboros has fallen. The Owl that guards the tomb and the Warlock's Corpse symbolizes the Outsider who wants to obtain this power, and the other you who is with the Owl symbolizes the Fallen Nature that everyone inevitably has."

"If Pallez can't even decipher these things, what kind of ' Cryptologist ' is he? I changed his symbolic image, and he couldn't recognize me?"

Is he aging prematurely at such a young age?

Lumian didn't know who Pallez was, but he understood what Amon's earlier interpretation meant.

He first heard about the Fallen Nature from a certain "Secret Supplicant," knowledge that came with the Potion itself. He heard about it a second time from the Honorific Name of That One "True Creator" worshipped by the Aurora Order.

And Amon and that That One had a very close relationship.

This means that the "True Creator's " influence on the Cordou Village incident was far deeper than Lumian had anticipated, and it was definitely not as simple as just sending a few Lizard- like Elf to make things develop as expected!

A surge of anger, which even a "Ascetic" could not suppress, suddenly ignited within Lumian. He forced out a low, hoarse sound from his throat:

"Did you orchestrate the Calamity in Cordou Village?"

Amon adjusted his right Monocle, without directly answering Lumian's question.

He pulled a piece of paper out of thin air and read it aloud as if reading a report, "Patient: Lumian Lee, male, claims to have been born on September 26, 1340, from the Cordou Village, Dalege Region Leston Province, Republic of Intis."

"Description of symptoms: Strong self-destructive tendencies, loss of the ability to respond to the emotions of others."

"Etiological analysis: The patient's experience as a homeless child made Patient distrustful of his surroundings. In order to survive, he developed a habit of not taking care of his own body and abandoned some of the morals required by human society. Aurora Lee's shelter, sympathy, care, encouragement and interdependence helped the Patient to initially heal from that period of life, rebuild his social relationships and gradually become a normal person.

"The Calamity in Cordou Village and the passing of Aurora destroyed the Patient's rebuilt life, bringing even more severe Pain and Despair, making him afraid to crave and respond to the emotions of others, fearing that he would lose them again, and filling him with self-destructive tendencies."

Phase I Treatment Plan:

"The first step is to emphasize that Aurora Lee still has a slight chance of Resurrection, giving the Patient the motivation to live."

"The second step is to arrange for the Patient to stay at the Golden Rooster Inn in the Trier Market District, where there are many people from the bottom of society, and their experiences can effectively resonate with the Patient."

"The third step is to force Patient to connect with Celia Bello and others through the event, in order to prepare for the reconstruction of social relationships in the future."

"The fourth step is to use the mission of infiltrating the Iron and Blood Cross Order to let the Patient meet Franca Roland. Franca Roland and Aurora have very similar backgrounds and have a cheerful Personality. She can effectively reduce the high walls that the Patient has built around his psychological problems and become the most important person for him to rebuild his social relationships."

"The fifth step, in conjunction with the therapy from ' Tarot Club,' ' Justice,' and Susie, is to reasonably allow certain events to occur to help improve the psychological state:"

"Initially, by leveraging the Patient ' sympathy for unemployed Charlie and Streetwalker Yisansi, we aimed to ensure that his help would yield positive results and provide him with positive feedback."

"In the middle stage, the Patient is fortunate to encounter Celia Bello after suffering a blow, receive Soothing companionship, and Accumulation -up emotions through his own choice of behavior that is both indulgent and absurd yet unconsciously has certain bottom lines."

"In the later stages, certain inevitable events are brought forward, and at the most appropriate time, some events can occur before the mid-stage treatment:"

This includes:

"First, Suzanne Matisse once again sets her sights on Charlie, sending her ' Bliss Society ' Subordinate to abduct Charlie to the Underground Trier, so that the Patient will vaguely perceive the existence of the ' Sufferer ' and feel anger, and through this series of events strengthen the Patient's connection with Franca, Celia, Charlie and others, and initially rebuild social relationships;

"Secondly, the Madman Flamang, whose situation is most similar to the Patient's, after being helped by the Patient and getting rid of the Montsouris Ghosts, loses all expectation and hope for life and has no motivation to live. He chooses to hang himself on the window frame of his room. This can strongly resonate with the Patient and have a great Impact on him, thereby arousing his rebellious psychology and stirring up his inner stubbornness and unyieldingness;

"Third, the scavenger Roul unfortunately falls victim to the indiscriminate influence of cultists and contracts a serious illness. Despite the Patient's best efforts to help, they are unable to save his life. Seeing that hope has been shattered, Roul's wife Michel chooses to indulge in a drinking spree and singing loudly, and then hangs herself at dawn. This similar experience and the Predestination outcome completely ignite the Patient's inner emotions, making him want to rebel against the injustice of Destiny and challenge everything."

"Fourth, the explosion at the Chemical Factory where Celia Bello's mother worked was the final catalyst."

"First phase of treatment results: The Patient's self-destructive tendencies have significantly decreased, social relationships have been re-established, a certain motivation to live has been regained, and the patient is able to cope with more events."

As Amon read the "report" in a flat tone, Lumian's heart sank slowly, growing colder with each word.

It was as if he had been doused with a bucket of cold water when he was still a homeless child; the coldness ran from his head to his toes, and all the hope and pride in his heart were extinguished as quickly as Candle flame.

His indomitable spirit, his arrogance, his resistance against Destiny seemed to become a joke, falling to the ground, shattering into pieces, and being crushed into mud by those in High-Ranking Being.

At this moment, Lumian was completely numb.

Half of his heart Burning with an uncontrollable rage and a self-destructive impulse to drag the report's Author down with him, while the other half felt again the Despair and Pain his Older Sister Aurora had felt when she pushed him away to die alone.

Amon finally finished reading the first phase of treatment report, looking at Lumian with a smile, seemingly waiting for a response.

Lumian's body hunched slightly, and his voice seemed to burst forth from the Depths his heart, filled with extreme Pain:

"Why, why me?"

Amon smiled and said, "' The Fool's' aura, Aurora's foolish choice, made you a good experimental subject, capable of carrying many things, and can be used to verify the results of the original experiment."

"That's one reason. Another reason is that if you really self-destruct, wouldn't my Acting of Termiboros be exposed? Then how can I fool those guys outside and get them to place a big bet?"

"The only way to secretly absorb and digest Termiboros's Sequence 1 Beyonder Characteristic and jump through the Pathway is to do so within the ' The Fool's ' seal."

Lumian's mind was in complete chaos, his emotions exploding. Even his "Conspirer" abilities were hard to apply. He could only ask instinctively, "At that grand Ritual, Parish Priest, it wasn't just Termiboros who descended, but you too? You deliberately sealed yourself into my body along with the severely injured Theromevis?"

Amon nodded gently and said with a smile, "Thank you for your generosity. You helped me open the path back and also gave me this wonderful gift."

Lumian fell silent, involuntarily breathing heavily, as if the air here was too thin to breathe without effort.

"Who was that ' Sufferer ' who Concealment around me before?"

Amon shook his head:

"Haven't you guessed yet? You should have heard of His name, ' Angel of Destiny ' Ouroboros."

"The Angel of Destiny" Ouroboros... Lumian was stunned for a moment, but then felt that it seemed to make perfect sense.

This is the Angel King once followed the "Ancient Sun God." Mr. K of the "Aurora Order" mentioned during his Sermon that He is currently serving the "True Creator."

Lumian instinctively clenched her Teeth, and a voice escaped from the gap:

"Did you... did you have a chance to save Aurora?"

Amon smiled.

Want to hear the answer?

He turned his gaze back to the Paper in his hand, as if preparing to read something new, which might contain all the answers.
