Chapter 462 Some Ancient Secrets

746
Amon's silence was deafening.

For a moment he suspected that this was Medici's remote guidance through the "mind link", but if Medici intervened forcefully, with his current strength superior to his own, he would definitely temporarily interfere with the parasitism.

But it was obvious that there was no external force helping Klein right now.

Amon was confused.

In confusion, he vaguely remembered the information about "Klein Moretti" shared by the Amon group a long time ago, which said that he had very poor quality, liked close combat, and was a descendant of a giant with a height of 2.3 meters. Although the main body later found out that it was the clone who transmitted the information who betrayed them and said all the irony and lies, it seemed to make some sense now.

After a few seconds of confusion, the mythical creature blamed all the problems on Medici—after all, how could it be otherwise?—and decided that if he had the chance in the future, he would play a trick on Medici, such as giving him a monocle.

By then, Medici’s expression and reaction will definitely be very interesting.

Klein looked at Amon, who had been silent for several seconds, and was a little surprised. He didn't expect that this would silence Amon.

Does this time angel seem to have a weak psychological endurance? Or was he frightened by me?
But Klein certainly didn't feel any guilt. Even if the real body of the Angel of Time came over, as long as his mouth could still move, he would scold him for those people who were inexplicably parasitized and died by Him.

His mentality is pretty good right now, and he can even say that he is fearless. After all, just like what Amon said, Klein has completely understood what Amon is really afraid of—his own "fate"! He is afraid of this fate that is closely related to the owner of Sefirah Castle, the Lord of Mysteries, and Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun! Although Klein himself is not sure what the specific impact is, he can feel that if the Lord of Mysteries revives, he will definitely wake up first in him.

Without giving it much thought, Klein tried hard to regain the initiative and create an opportunity:
"So, since you don't dare to turn me into your clone, nor do you dare to kill me, you just want to trap me in the God-forsaken Land?"

Amon didn’t want to recall what Klein had just said, so he nodded calmly and said:
"Yes, I have no intention of letting you go."

"Your purpose in coming to the God-Forsaken Land is nothing more than to take them away and complete your Miracle Master Promotion Ceremony. But your destiny will awaken one day. Isn't it better to awaken Him as a Sequence 3 than as a Sequence 2?"

Sure enough, this is the purpose... Klein narrowed his eyes.

We can't let him die, but we can't let him continue to be promoted smoothly either. So isn't the simplest way to just lock him up?
Amon was not afraid of being pushed into a corner and completely releasing his divinity, because what kind of Lord of Mysteries is a Lord of Mysteries who is only Sequence 3 when he revives and has no Sefirah Fort? At most, this would cause Him to lose some clones, but it would trap this Lord of Mysteries here.

Using a few clones at the smallest cost can keep Him here, in this God-forsaken place, this place isolated from the spiritual world, this place where God is. What can a Sequence 3 master of the spiritual world do?
The door to the Forsaken Land is in the Giant King's Court, and it is still closed. Amon can guard the door and not let anyone out. Now that Amon has obtained Sefirah Castle, his status is definitely higher than that of the "Angel of Destiny". The other party can bring him in, but may not be able to take him out... Even if he thinks of the worst, Ouroboros, who participated in the "Redemption of the Rose", has a conflict with Amon, and now he may not even be able to get out!
……

Wait, could Ouroboros have anticipated this?

Was it because he had anticipated this that he looked at me meaningfully at that time and put me into the land forsaken by God?

This is totally giving Amon the opportunity to catch me in a trap!

Klein's heartbeat seemed to suddenly stop, and his palms suddenly broke out in sweat. As the angel of destiny, couldn't the other party see the purpose of his coming here? Amon knew about the promotion ceremony, so there was no reason for Ouroboros not to know!

But between Ouroboros and Medici…if Ouroboros’s purpose was to trick himself in, then did he not even tell Medici and trick his “friend” in as well?

They are both members of the "Redemption Rose"! They should be hated by Amon together! Amon may find "restart" difficult, but Medici has no such escape method. He has even died once. It is because of their hostile relationship with Amon that I have always trusted them, thinking that at least we are on the same front because of the true creator...

All kinds of distracting thoughts instantly filled his mind, and Klein suddenly felt an uncomfortable sense of betrayal and deception, and even his spirituality was slightly shaken.

The next moment, Klein lost his thoughts.

Amon pinched his monocle, thought for a while, and suddenly smiled.

"I see. No wonder you suddenly looked like that."

A smile will not appear or disappear out of thin air, it will only transfer from one person's face to another. When Amon was speechless, Klein was happy, and when Klein was speechless, Amon's mood improved.

“Hehe… Ouroboros. He seems to be living well in another city-state and is well respected, just like in the past.”

But why should the traitor who conspired to kill the Sun God continue to enjoy these treatments?
"I really want to maintain a good relationship with you, but since you refuse, I can only take you to see my true self, and then take you to a place that is safe and secluded enough. By then, your ending will not be as good as I just said."

He stole my thoughts. Now in this parasitic state, I am very passive. If he wants to restrict me, I can't even say a word...

Klein frowned.

As he spoke, the man with black hair, black eyes, a broad forehead, and a thin face slowly stood up and walked away. Klein stood up and followed behind him like a puppet.

As he was about to leave, Amon seemed to have thought of a question. He pressed the crystal monocle, turned his body sideways, looked back at Klein and said:
"What is your fourth honorific name, 'Ancient Scholar'?"

In mysticism, the honorific names corresponding to each existence are not so strict. As long as the correct format and certain descriptions are used to narrow the scope to a clear level, they can all point to the corresponding hidden existence. This is why many cultists do not understand mysticism at all, and make up some honorific names in a chaotic manner, but can still get feedback.

Of course, if the name is not given by the hidden being itself, there is no way to enjoy the "automatic response" treatment. Whether the connection can be established depends entirely on whether the being is interested in the petitioner.

Amon had previously used his knowledge of the "Ancient Scholar" and Gehrman Sparrow to restore the complete name that could accurately point to Gehrman Sparrow through the ability of the "Thief" Path Sequence 7 "Decryption Scholar", but he did not try to pray and use "Automatic Response" to establish contact and lock the other party's position because his divine intuition told him that there was a problem with the fourth sentence and it would definitely fail.

The correct fourth honorific name flashed through Klein's mind instinctively, but he didn't intend to tell the other party.

At this moment, Amon opened his mouth and read out his thoughts:

"The protector of Backlund's magic and theatrical performances..."

After reading this, this "angel of time" and "blasphemer" did not speak for several seconds.

Then he laughed, and laughed very happily.

After he finished laughing, Amon pushed the monocle on his right eye and said with a smile:

“It’s pretty interesting, frankly.”

"You really don't want to consider becoming my follower?"

Klein smiled. Become your favored one? You are planning to lock me up here, why are you still deceiving me? Do you think I will be fooled?
"Or you could just kill me."

Hey, I can talk again?

Hearing Klein's answer, Amon smiled and shook his head. He reached out to open the door and asked casually:

"How did you come up with this honorific name?"

“It has to be related to oneself to a certain extent, but it also has to avoid being targeted by others through the automatic response to prayer. There aren’t many such honorific names.” Seeing that he had been exposed, Klein no longer had any need to hide anything. Moreover, he also hoped to seize possible opportunities through similar conversations.

Amon led him forward in the darkness, scratching his chin and saying:

"Have you ever provided protection for Backlund's magic and theatrical performances?"

I once protected a ‘Master of Magic’... Klein, who had a plan, cooperated more than before and answered simply:

"I am a 'magician' myself, and I have 'performed' many times in Backlund."

Amon, wearing a monocle, nodded:
“Just barely.”

At the same time, Klein's mind raced as he thought about how to save himself:
"I am 'parasitized'. Although not to a deep level, any thoughts that are not beneficial to Amon can be easily sensed and detected by Him..." "By the way, I have something to tell him."

Apparently, Amon had also heard this idea. He motioned for Klein, who was holding the animal skin lantern, to come in front of him. He took off his monocle, wiped it carefully with a piece of animal skin, and asked casually:

"whats the matter?"

Klein restrained himself from thinking too much and answered stiffly, "Some ancient secrets."

Amon smiled. "You want to tell me some ancient secrets? Although I am not the real body, is there anything we don't know? From the Third Age to now, you should need my information to help you illuminate the fragments of history."

"You know about historical fragments?" Klein asked in surprise.

Amon did not hide these minor details: "Yes. Sefirah Castle can use some of the abilities of adjacent pathways, you should also know that. After the main body obtained Sefirah Castle, it tried to use the ability of 'Ancient Scholar', which can illuminate almost all historical fragments."

The first thing Amon tried was the power of the "Ancient Scholar"? What did he want to find in the mist of history? Could it be...

Klein's expression suddenly became complicated, but before he could speak, Amon on the other side once again read out his thoughts for him:

"Redemption Rose?"

Amon was stunned at first, then he was amused. "You want to tell me about these guys? It seems that you at least know who was involved at the time. Then, Klein, I must admit that I am a little curious now. What 'ancient secrets' did you find?"

Klein let his thoughts and his throat move in sync, and said straight to the point:

"The kings have rebelled against the Lord and frequently gather in the palace at dusk. A great disaster will begin here."

"This is the one from the afternoon town."

Amon cleaned his monocle and put it back on, even though it was a symbol of uniqueness and was spotless:
"His warning came too late, even later than I discovered it. By then, it was completely meaningless to say those words. The disaster was not 'going to start from here', but 'it will start from here in the next moment'. In the end, He did not escape, and only a brand of death was left."

"Afternoon Town, Afternoon Town. I remember it's very far from here."

Amon looked up at the dark distance, glanced at the northwest direction, and pointed casually:
"It should be in that direction. I have never been there. These are some memories of the original body."

"You probably haven't been there, and Medici probably doesn't know about it either. As for Ouroboros... So, someone from Silver City explored there and told you about Afternoon Town and that guy's mark?"

"Yes."

Klein admitted it. Even if he didn't admit it, Amon could still steal his true thoughts. He paused for a moment and asked:
"Your original body has been wandering here all this time. Are you looking for something? Looking for the history of the First Era, or even earlier?"

"Why should I answer your question? There shouldn't be any requirement for a one-on-one answer between you and me, right?" Amon asked back first, then said nonchalantly, "Yes."

Klein typed a question mark again and guessed carefully:

"Because you are the Son of the Creator?"

"No." Amon put one hand in his pocket and turned to walk away. "In this chaotic place, the order is broken and the rules are changing. There are too many things that can be used."

The "Angel of Time" walked and turned his head to look at Klein next to him:
"Sequence 0 of the 'Thief' pathway has a very abstract name, 'Error'."

"My father named it after me, who used a strange word of unknown origin to refer to it:

"'Bug.'"

"This translates to: the Trojan horse of fate, the worm of time, the loophole in the rules, the embodiment of all errors."

"Error"... Bug... Is this the essence of the "Thief" path? While Klein was suddenly realizing something, he also realized another thing:
The word Amon just said is standard English!
Fellow countryman, your two children are really more harmful than each other... Klein complained in his heart and asked curiously:

"Because of this, the strange pronunciation of this word makes you speculate about things before the era?"

Klein controlled himself and did not use the word "Bug" to avoid arousing Amon's suspicion due to his overly normal accent and revealing a trump card.

Faced with an Angel King who could steal his thoughts and parasitize him at a deep level, he had very few cards in his hand, and he had to make good use of every one of them. Who knows, they might produce miraculous effects someday.

"I guess so." Amon replied without much concern.

…Klein hesitated, then said:
"Aren't you curious about the status of the 'Dark Angel' Sasriel and the True Creator?"

Previously, the Silver Knight in the Giant King's Court said that the Dark Angel was sleeping inside the King's Court, and that if they wanted to leave here, they would have to confront Him first. If the "He will be watching" that Medici mentioned was referring to the remaining spirit of the Dark Angel, then that made sense.

"Curiosity." Amon did not change the direction of his gaze and said with a smile, "But compared to me, there are many guys who are more interested, my paranoid brother, 'The Hanged Man', the Dragon of Betrayal, as well as Night, Storm, and Pure White. I just want to see who can't help it first. Haha, I originally thought that if I could steal everything in it at the critical moment, their expressions would definitely be very interesting. But now that they are almost dead, I am no longer interested."

This idea... is this a big thing just to cause trouble, to get some pleasure? Of all things, is there something hidden around the "Dark Angel"? Klein frowned slightly and found that Amon's worldview, life and values ​​were different from those of humans.

"correct."

Amon slowed down his pace, turned around, and looked at Klein who was walking side by side with him:

"Why do you want to talk about them separately?"

"If you knew that period of history, you would be able to see that He and those three despicable guys are the same."

Klein suddenly sensed a dangerous desire for inquiry in Amon's eyes. His mind went blank for a moment before he found his voice again.

Klein looked at the curious face of the Son of the Creator and said slowly and affirmatively:

"Because, the Dark Angel Sasriel is not like the three gods who absorbed the benefits and became a god."

"The 'Dark Angel' was only a part of the Ancient Sun God. It ceased to exist after returning to its original form. The real creator afterwards was the human part of the Ancient Sun God that went mad due to pain and betrayal."

Amon was silent for a moment, then smiled carelessly again:
"What evidence do you have? Why do you think I would believe what you say?"

"I don't expect you to believe that."

After all, you seem to really regard Him as a "Dark Angel". The Aurora Society's records also say that you hate Him. But if He is really a "Dark Angel", how could your true body wander in the God-forsaken Land for thousands of years without any harm? Even if He is a crazy god, He is still a god...

Klein said calmly, "I don't have any evidence either, and He won't appear here immediately to prove that I'm right."

"So, believe it or not."

I was chased and bitten by mosquitoes. I killed seven or eight of them but was still bitten. I sprayed insecticide several times but it was useless. I couldn't stand it anymore!
