1350 Wish (1/2)

Adam turned ”His” head and looked at Klein. ”His” limpid, light-colored eyes reflected the face that was stained with blood.

”His” expression remained unchanged, and there was a hint of pity in its warmth. It was as if a god was looking down upon the world.

Klein smiled at ”Him” as his head cracked apart.

This trend on his body caused him to collapse into a pool of blood.

In the pool of blood were his clothing, the blood-soaked stake, and an ancient mirror.

In the corpse cathedral, in the divine kingdom of Visionary Adam, Klein had died a strange death.

Adam, dressed in a simple white robe, looked at the scene before ”Him” with gentleness and calmness. It was unknown if ”He” had expected it or if ”He” had avoided having any emotions.

In the ancient palace above the fog.

That crazy maggot vortex instantly stopped as they broke apart into numerous frozen, dead Worms of Spirit.

In the next second, these Worms of Spirit turned illusory as they became stained with grayish-white as though they had fused into the fog of history.

Then, they came back to life. As they shimmered with a dark glow, they gathered together.

In just a few seconds, the Worms of Spirit reassembled into a figure. It was Klein Moretti, who had black hair, brown eyes, and a formal suit.

With the return of the owner of Sefirah Castle, the destroyed mottled table and the twenty-two high-back chairs rapidly restored to normal. The junk scattered all over the floor was piled up again.

Klein picked up the Staff of the Stars embedded with various gems and sat on the seat belonging to The Fool.

The entire space above the gray fog quaked as boundless and mighty invisible forces surged out.

Klein immediately nodded at the golden figure that occupied Bernadette's prayer.

”I will fulfill my promise.”

Genie laughed and said, ”It looks like you haven't inherited 'His' cunningness and shamelessness. Very good.”

As soon as ”He” said that, the blurry and distorted golden figure rapidly receded, no longer projecting itself on Bernadette's prayer light.

”Well done.” As Klein separated a Worm of Spirit to respond to Queen Mystic's prayers, he lowered his head and made a wish to himself. ”I wish to be restored to how I was like before tonight.”

When his main body died, he had only taken away the core portion of the Miracle Invoker Beyonder characteristic, leaving behind the remains in Adam's corpse cathedral. He was unable to retrieve them.

Of course, Klein still had a large portion of the characteristics in the Worms of Spirit in his body above the gray fog and the remaining marionettes in Utopia. Zaratul didn't need any additional Beyonder characteristics, nor did ”He” want them to end up affecting ”His” condition. Therefore, ”He” didn't directly use the law of convergence of Beyonder characteristics to suck all the characteristics of the same pathway in Utopia. ”He” collected them using a different method which was relatively slow and would require a certain amount of time.

After making this wish, Klein summoned the ”curtain,” draped it behind him, and snapped his fingers.

Inside the junk pile, the Seer pathway's Sequence 9 and 3 Beyonder characteristics that were separated from the ”curtain” previously floated up at the same time, transforming into pure light dots that drilled into Klein's body.

His condition instantly returned to the time when he was almost done digesting the Miracle Invoker potion. Apart from the lack of a physical body, he was no different from when he was attacked.

Right on the heels of that, Klein cast his gaze at Utopia, which was closely connected to him.

…

Inside Utopia, the hooded, black-robed Zaratul, whose face was covered in white whiskers, stood on the roof of Saint Arianna Cathedral. Beside him were Roselle Gustav's, William Augustus's, and Abomination Suah's historical projection. ”They” patiently waited for the door to the corpse cathedral to open and for Gehrman Sparrow to walk out.

He controlled some of ”His” marionettes, dealing with a few of the mutated Utopian marionettes, leaving the remaining portion of marionettes which remained normal to the end.

At that moment, dense, illusory Spirit Body Threads suddenly floated up from the rigid Utopian marionettes into an infinitely high height away.

They instantly came to life and turned around, looking at Zaratul and ”His” historical projections.

The pairs of eyes sparkled in the darkness.

At the same time, a huge shadow descended from the faint grayish-white fog, enveloping the entirety of Utopia.

Zaratul and ”His” historical projections instinctively raised ”Their” heads and looked up at the sky that suffused a faint gray fog.

”Sealing is prohibited here.” In the next second, William Augustine's historical projection raised the sword in ”His” right hand and solemnly made an announcement.

The shadow that enveloped Utopia immediately shook as many gaps appeared. It was unable to completely isolate the marionette town from the outside world.

Roselle Gustav's historical projection immediately transformed into a torrent of information that surged towards Klein's remaining marionettes in an attempt to interfere with their movements. As for the historical projection of Abomination Suah, it attacked the shadow that appeared like a curtain in a bid to expand the corresponding gaps.

Zaratul extended ”His” hand and ”Grafted” the void in front of ”Him” to another island in the Berserk Sea that ”He” had previously fixed.

Following that, as long as ”He” took a step forward, ”He” would be able to leave Utopia.
