At this moment, the voices of everyone present and those in the image reached a consensus.
[Amon!]
Although he was shouting loudly in his heart, Medici still looked calm.
In just a moment, he looked Gerhman up and down, then smiled as if nothing had happened and said, "I'll say it again, you have a talent for being a provocateur. When Zaratul was digesting the Bizarro Sorcerer potion, he didn't dare pretend to be Amon in front of me."
If the "Bizarro Sorcerer" potion hadn't been largely digested just now, I would have truly believed that your will was as strong as steel and your strength had recovered to at least the level of Sequence 1. But now. I can almost confirm that your calm demeanor hides an intense fear of Amon, which also means that your current status is at most Sequence 2…
If Danitz were here, and let him take this opportunity to shout "coward" twice, then even if he drank four or five bottles of "Provocateur" potion, he would be able to digest it quickly…
As he complained, Gehrman silently took off his monocle.
Danitz, who was named, was filled with questions and even wanted to shout "shit".
Not only are you crazy, but you're actually trying to drag me down with you? Not everyone has the courage and guts to challenge an Angel King! Even if He's only a Sequence 2!
Melissa was filled with worry and anger. Normally, he was so cautious and timid, but why was he so bold at a time like this? He was the King of Angels!
Azik slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
Honestly, he was genuinely frightened the moment he saw Klein wearing a monocle. It was only when the word "Amon" didn't appear on screen that he calmed down and realized something was amiss. But this behavior was truly dangerous. Putting aside the possibility that the "Red Angel" would take direct action, given Amon's quirkiness, they could very well use this connection to find Klein.
However, Azik changed his mind and thought that Klein always considered everything he did, and he was protected by the mysterious "Fool", so he should be sure to do this, so he felt relieved.
Anderson tried to hold it in for a moment, but couldn't hold it back. "As expected, the Provocateur talent is recognized by the Red Angel. I suggest using Danitz's Beyonder characteristics to switch to the Hunter path."
Danitz, who was affected again, instinctively retorted, "Why not use your Beyonder characteristics?"
Anderson said confidently: "My bounty is not as high as yours."
Danitz didn't know how to respond for a moment.
Fors looked at the two people with a complicated expression, greatly admiring their ability to liven up the atmosphere.
[King George III was giving a speech, and an ordinary-looking man with a "Klein" on his head was mixed in the crowd.
Suddenly, a deep red light appeared on the screen, revealing a podium for speeches, but no one was on it.
Those present were already familiar with this form of expression and knew it was a hint from The Fool to Klein. Audrey and others who had witnessed the explosion during George III's speech had used it to foresee what would happen next.
[The scene is divided into three parts, showing Gehrman, Bernadette and Triss attacking three tombs at the same time.
The battle progressed rapidly until the mausoleum was destroyed and George III died, and the scene finally unified again, leaving only Hermann, being hunted in the gaps of history.
Bernadette didn't look at herself on the screen, but focused on the other two battlefields.
Triss's story was gradually revealed during the film's breaks, so she was both surprised and understandable by her choice. It was just that seeing the ending of this witch, who was by no means a good person, left her feeling inexplicably sad.
However, the battle on Gehrman's side was more eye-opening. Both the historical projection and the historical gap were things that other Sequence Extraordinaries could hardly access.
Especially since Zaratul also pulled out Roselle's historical projection, even though she knew it was fake, Bernadette couldn't help but take a few more glances at it, and couldn't help but wonder if Gehrman could do it.
Many people were drawn to the historical projections. Compared to the other two locations, the melee on Klein's side looked more exciting, but also the most dangerous.
The card-playing battle between the two fortune-tellers had already drawn in several angels. When Renette Tinicole faced Hermes, Sharon and Maric couldn't help but change their expressions slightly.
When everyone saw Gehrman pull out "0-17", they were amazed at the indirect help provided by the Goddess of Night, and thought that this wave was stable, but Suah appeared again to distract them.
Fortunately, the final mausoleum couldn't withstand the aftermath of the angels' fight, and this scene gave a subtle sense of déjà vu to those who knew what happened to a certain innocent mountain in Bayam.
At the critical moment, Germann cut his finger and entered Groselle's Travels. As he pulled out Hvin Rambis's projection, his inner voice echoed.
According to Mr. Fool, Adam is waiting for me in the Hall of Honesty, but don't expect him to help... I don't know what kind of deal they reached
Klein in the video didn't know, but the person watching was very sure that they knew the inside story of the transaction.
Alger had even deduced the Fool's intentions.
First, find an excuse to strike a deal with Adam, ensuring that "the world" can go to the God-forsaken land, but do not give the book directly to Adam, but let "the world" use the travel notes in times of crisis.
Although Adam himself was neutral regarding the war, and even had no desire to interfere with George III's deification, he was determined to intervene personally to obtain the travelogue. For the "world" where life and death were at stake, the time Adam needed to retrieve the book would also provide him with some leeway and increase his chances of escape.
Moreover, due to the previous threats and deals made by The Fool, Adam should not dare to stand by and watch The World perish.
This achieves two goals with one transaction!
Cattleya also lamented the Fool's indulgence of his followers. He claimed he couldn't personally intervene, but look at what he had done for the World. While selfish motives were mixed in, he truly placed the World's wishes and safety above all else.
In a hotel room, Klein, with a look of fatigue that could not be concealed, prepared to recite the honorific name of "The Fool" with a strange and ordinary face.
The chanting had just begun when Enuni suddenly appeared on a chair in the room.
"Don't throw the Marionette around, or you'll be tracked."
As he spoke, Enuni slowly stood up, took out a monocle from his pocket, and put it on his right eye.
A subtitle appeared above his head: Amon (clone)]
The moment he saw Amon, Leonard felt his scalp tingle, but thinking of the deal between The Fool and Adam, he suppressed his fear of Amon.
I even felt like thinking outside the box: Klein had previously pretended to be Amon to scare the Red Angel, but now the real Amon has come to his door... Fortunately, Mr. Fool should have the upper hand over Amon, and he also values Klein enough.
Just when Leonard had comforted himself, the alarm in his mind sounded again when he saw the next scene.
Amon transformed back into his original form and looked at Klein with a smile: "Would the respected Mr. Fool be troubled if you died?"
Is His target Mr. Fool? What does He want to do? I've been deeply parasitized. Will he use this to harm Mr. Fool?
Klein remained motionless. Amon adjusted his monocle and smiled with an unchanging expression, "I don't want to do anything to Mr. Fool. My paranoid brother simply asked me to take you somewhere. But right now, I'm more curious about your relationship with the Fool."
Klein, wearing Merlin's skin, suppressed the twitching of his lips.
To be honest, I am also very curious about the relationship between "The World" and "The Fool".
Then, he realized that Amon still called Adam a "paranoid" at this time. Combined with the previous footage of the transaction between "The Fool" and Adam, he had some guesses about this.
Is this a hint to me that Adam hadn't told Amon his identity at that time? Or perhaps He still hasn't told me now? While I don't know how this will help me at the moment, this secret might come in handy someday.
Xio sensed something amiss. It seemed not only had Mr. Fool not told the World about the details of the deal, but Adam hadn't told Amon the whole story either. This operation left her a bit baffled.
[The scene skipped a moment. Amon stood up and walked towards the door, followed by Klein.
As the door opened, Amon turned sideways and looked back at Klein: "What is the fourth honorific name of your ancient scholar?"
The next moment, Amon's voice and Klein's inner voice rang out simultaneously: "The protector of Backlund's magic and theatrical performances..."
Then, the picture remained still for a few seconds.
Amon pushed his glasses and smiled happily: "You really don't consider becoming my follower?"
Pales' voice echoed in Leonard's mind: "Your former colleague... is quite thoughtful."
No matter what the reason is for this honorific name not to be deciphered, at least it was great that it was hidden from Amon and gave Him a little frustration!
As for the Favored, just listen to it. Even Leonard wouldn't believe Amon's nonsense.
Derrick was angry at Amon's behavior of stealing his girlfriend.
As one of the few people who had come into direct contact with Amon, his impression of this "Angel of Time" was extremely negative, not to mention that "He" was now setting his sights on Mr. Fool, whom Derrick respected.
Mr. World is clearly Mr. Fool's most beloved follower, so how could he possibly betray Mr. Fool? Even if he weren't a follower, Mr. Fool is so kind, who would be willing to trust someone like Amon?
Derrick thought indignantly.the God-forsaken Land, Amon and Klein came to a deep ravine.
Could it be that there has never been such a thing as "time travel"? It's just that I've been hanging on that light door for too long...?
At this moment, everyone present, like Klein in the video, had their thoughts churning uncontrollably in their heads.
Everyone had already accepted the concept of "time travel". Both Rossell and Klein acted very familiar with it, calling themselves time travelers from the beginning until the end.
Moreover, Russell's works and inventions also confirmed that there really is another world, and that they also have a long history and ancient culture, which is why these fascinating works and those fantastic inventions appeared.
But now, this statement has been overturned.
Such a civilization does exist, but it is not another world. Instead, it disappeared into the unknown history over an immeasurable amount of time.
Audrey didn't hide her surprise, or rather, no one was not surprised by this.
So, in fact, a long, long time ago, so long ago that there were no historical records, there was actually a very mature civilization, and Mr. "World" came from there.
But that civilization has disappeared, and the world has changed so much since then that Mr. World can no longer recognize where he lives...
Moreover, Mr. World loved his family so much and had always wanted to go back, but now he suddenly realized that he had never left at all, but his family and everything familiar were gone…
Just thinking about it, Audrey felt a huge sorrow enveloping her, and she was about to be drowned in endless pain and despair.
She couldn't imagine how the "world" that almost collapsed when it saw the light gate managed to stabilize its emotions after learning the even more cruel truth.
Bernadette thought of her father.
My father also initially thought this was another world, and this perception persisted for a long time, even believing himself to be connected to another world. However, as he learned more secrets, even entering the starry sky, he gradually discovered the truth and realized that he had not traveled through time at all.
Could this mental blow have been the catalyst for his corruption, and one of the reasons for his madness in his later years?
Emlyn slowly calmed himself down.
The truth of the matter is laid out before everyone, and without much thought, one can tell what happened at a glance.
In the First Age, or even before, there was a mature civilization, but for unknown reasons, it completely disappeared. At that time, Mr. Fool imprisoned a group of people in Sefirah Castle and fell into a deep slumber himself.
During this process, occasionally a person would be put down by Sefirah Castle and enter the real world, until the "world" was also put down and the "Fool" was revived.
[Perhaps, I have never left my hometown, but I will never be able to return home…
Then, gray fog appeared around Klein, standing in a decaying forest in the cracks of history.
The road appeared in front of me again, and running forward to the end, there were cities.
There are tall buildings that are completely different from the current style, with a large number of objects with strange shapes, and pedestrians. standing still on the streets.
In the endless space, cities piled up one on top of another, tall buildings and unfamiliar objects collapsed and damaged, solidifying into a wordless picture.
The collapse and destruction of a civilization, the heavy epic feeling weighs on everyone's mind through the images.
Is that where Klein once lived? Melissa stared at the unfamiliar world in the image.
She didn't really understand the angels and gods that others talked about; they were too far away from her. She only knew that Klein was always in danger and she could do nothing about it.
At first, Melissa resented Klein's body being taken over by a stranger. But now, she was grateful that this person could become Klein, allowing the long-dead Klein to continue living.
After watching the video for so long and truly understanding this person, Melissa really couldn't hold any ill will towards him.
It was just that Klein brought them a better life, while her original family and hometown were forever lost in history, which made Melissa feel uncontrollably lost.
Leonard felt uncomfortable and a little irritated.
He had always thought he understood Klein best, having known him since. their time in Tingen. But after watching these videos, he realized how much his seemingly unchanged colleague had endured, while he was still the one who could only worry and blame himself afterwards.
Back to reality, before Klein could react, Amon raised the corner of his mouth and suddenly attacked.
Just as Klein was overwhelmed by Amon's whispers and his face showed pain, the "Klein" subtitle above his head quietly changed to "Klein/The Fool
"That's it." Klein's expression instantly calmed down, revealing an indifference that he never normally displayed.
Amon pressed his glasses and took a step back quietly.
"Mr. Fool?"
Klein smiled, but his eyes remained indifferent. "Is it because Adam said he would restrain me that you dare to set your sights on Klein?"
As he said this, he didn't even look at the Time Worm that emerged from his body, and simply crushed it to death.
Alger's pupils trembled as he watched.
So Amon so unscrupulously brought the "world" to the God-forsaken Land because he was sure that Mr. "Fool" did not have the energy to take care of him, so he wanted to take the opportunity to take the "world" and deal with Mr. "Fool".
But he didn't expect that Adam had already been in cahoots with The Fool, and had sold Him out from the very beginning in order to become a god himself.
And judging by Mr. Fool's effortless demeanor, one can guess that at first, he likely had to expend his own energy infiltrating the God-Forsaken Land, leaving him unable to control Amon. Later, he simply sought to borrow Amon's mind and, by the way, to reveal the truth to the "world." Now that the truth is known, Amon is naturally useless, and the "Fool" can descend upon the "world" to help him escape Amon's clutches.
This also explains why neither The Fool nor Adam revealed the deal before. They were afraid Amon would guess there was a conspiracy and wouldn't be able to maximize their use of Him, so they kept it secret!
But wasn't Adam Amon's brother? Wasn't the ancient sun god in the core Amon's father? How could he be so cruel to his own child?
Looking at Amon's expression, which was alert but far from fearful, Alger understood.
This is because Adam knew that the "Fool" could only be a divine descent at best and could not cause any real harm to Amon, so he made the plan with confidence.
Moreover, considering the particularity of the "world", if Amon's plan really succeeds, it will not be a bad thing for Adam. It is a sure win!
Klein felt inexplicably relieved as he watched "himself" crush the bugs.
Although he knew it was fake, if The Fool was really that strong and took such good care of him, he would be so happy.
[Above the gray fog, The Fool and The World sit facing each other.
"I just saw that the first... cocoon-breaker was a woman." The World paused. "Is she the Goddess of Night?"
The Fool nodded, saying with some emotion, "He is more capable than I expected."
"...And who is the ancient sun god?"
"Heh, a lucky but also unlucky guy."]
Although the fight between The Fool and Amon was not shown further, the amount of information in this video was equally explosive, and the goddess's believers present even had a feeling of doubting their lives.
Is the Night Goddess also a time traveler? Or a cocoon breaker? Is it so sudden?
However, after accepting this setting and looking back at some of the previous images, many things become understandable.
Why did Klein join the Nighthawks as soon as he landed? Why do the Goddess and The Fool have such a good relationship and long-term cooperation? Why does the Goddess care for Klein so much and support him so much?
Isn't it because the Evernight Goddess was also once hung on Sefirah Castle, and she and Klein are an old friend from the same history?
After Cattleya figured out the connection, she couldn't help but think of Emperor Roselle, who was also a "traveler".
Logically speaking, since the "world" was able to quickly recognize Roselle's identity, the Evernight Goddess must also know it. However, no matter how you look at it, Roselle seems to have no connection with the Evernight Goddess…
It was understandable that Roselle couldn't guess, but he had no idea. It could only be that the Goddess of Night had never shown any special feelings towards him, so until the end, he could only guess that there were more than one "traveler".
But why didn't the Evernight Goddess contact Roselle, who was almost promoted to the Dark Emperor, and instead looked at the "world" of ordinary people differently…
Cattleya thought of the diaries and felt that in addition to the Fool's relationship, Emperor Roselle himself should bear most of the responsibility.
But after looking at Bernadette, Cattleya remembered another thing.
When destroying George III's deification, Mr. Fool said that the Goddess of Night was not satisfied with the Dark Emperor, which showed that He was still optimistic about Emperor Roselle. At least, He did not despise him that much.
Edwina summarized the current intelligence.
The Fool came from the First Age, or even before the First Age, and captured a group of people from that ancient civilization.
Among them, the goddess of night was the first to be put down, and at the same time, there was also the ancient sun god.
According to Gehrman's conjecture, the ancient sun god must also have come from an ancient civilization. This also fits with the "Fool's evaluation of Him fortunately, He escaped the world-destroying disaster and gained power, but unfortunately, He struggled for so long and only recently became a god again. Perhaps there are other meanings, but Edwina has no way of knowing.
Emperor Rosell seems to be very active, but if you think about it carefully, he may be the most unlucky one…
Not to mention the glory of the ancient sun god, even after a plan to become Adam, he has been secretly pushing the world forward, and his Twilight Hermits is a mysterious organization that even Roselle is wary of The Goddess of Night even founded the church and became one of the Seven True Gods. Now, not only is she gradually approaching a level above the true gods, she also has the energy to cooperate with the "Fool".
Gehrman's strength might not be as great as these people, but he was favored by the Fool, had been exposed to enough secrets, and was living a decent life now.
Only Emperor Roselle, as can be seen from his diary, has always relied on himself to explore and find the truth, and in the end he was even corrupted and lost his integrity in his later years.
During this process, the Evernight Goddess and Adam must have seen and recognized his identity, but no one expressed any concern. I just don't understand why Gehrman could deduce that the Ancient Sun God and himself were from the same era based on a "meme," while Emperor Roselle seemed completely unsuspecting of him…
