1375 Beginning the Accommodation (2/2)

This gave Klein preliminary confirmation. As a natural Mythical Creature, Antigonus was born with some of the Celestial Worthy's will. When ”He” advanced to Attendant of Mysteries, the problem suddenly became serious, causing ”Him” to undergo unexpected changes without ”Him” realizing it. By the time ”He” managed to accommodate The Fool's Uniqueness, madness had apparently become another side of ”Him.”

In other words, before completely losing control, Antigonus was already a mentally-sutured monster to a certain level. ”His” self-awareness and mental imprint were part of the Celestial Worthy of Heaven and Earth for Blessings, and this was something that couldn't be separated by using ”Theft.”

Compared to ”Him,” Zaratul's mental imprint was much cleaner. There was only a small portion that belonged to the Celestial Worthy of Heaven and Earth for Blessings. Most of it came from Zaratul's intense emotions at ”His” deathbed.

The reason why the two were different was that, apart from the fact that Antigonus had accommodated The Fool's Uniqueness, the former had become the Attendant of Mysteries at the beginning of the Fourth Epoch. At that time, the will of the Celestial Worthy hadn't weakened to the state it was in during the late Fifth Epoch.

Without being able to form a new balance, the speed of Klein's breakdown became faster and faster. More than half of his body was formed from transparent and distorted maggots, and he extended slippery and sinister tentacles into his surroundings.

Just as he was trying his best to maintain his consciousness and not give up searching for a new balance, his collapsed body, Antigonus's crazy mental state, and the consciousness of the Celestial Worthy of Heaven and Earth for Blessings all fell into a deep sleep.

This caused all the changes to stop abruptly and return to normal.

As for Klein's self-consciousness, he used his trait of resisting dreams and the invasion of his mind to maintain his clarity of mind.

That's right. The fate that I stole includes the fate of being in a state of eternal slumber outside the fate of going crazy and losing control… As for me, I can resist eternal slumber to a certain extent… Klein grabbed the sliver of clarity and gained a certain understanding of his present state.

To him, this was an opportunity.

It was only at this moment that he fully understood why the Evernight Goddess needed the river water of the River of Eternal Darkness to use as a medium to attempt this.

This wasn't only because it was difficult to put a King of Angels who had accommodated the Uniqueness, and the awakening will of the Lord of the Mysteries in ”Him” to temporarily enter a state of eternal sleep, but it was beneficial to Klein for this state of eternal slumber. This could create an excellent environment of him being the only one with a sliver of consciousness while the other interference was all sleeping!

At the same time, Klein also confirmed one thing:

The reason why he was able to remain clear-headed in a dream and during the instances where his mind was intruded wasn't because of the special traits from Sefirah Castle. This was because the Celestial Worthy of Heaven and Earth for Blessings in his body was also sleeping.

Although the awakening of the Lord of the Mysteries was still greatly limited, ”His” level and ”His” connection with Sefirah Castle were undoubtedly stronger than Klein's. If ”He” couldn't completely resist a state of eternal slumber, why could Klein?

Therefore, Klein believed that this trait was likely due to the blessings of the Evernight Goddess, a gift he received when he came to life.

The blessings given by a true goddess who wielded the power of the dream domain, and the aura, strength, and magical powers that Sefirah Castle augmented him with had combined together to form such a special trait!

It was as if a gentle song came from deep within the dream. Klein's consciousness became clearer.

Without any hesitation, he immediately adjusted the sleeping imprint and corruption in his body and found a new balance.

Following that, he extended slippery tentacles with strange patterns and used Sefirah Castle's powers to steal The Fool's Uniqueness inside Antigonus's body.

Perhaps it was because he was now Antigonus, the theft this time was successful after a small number of failures.

A translucent mask with the symbol of The Fool flew out from Antigonus's body!

The man with the thick black beard was still sleeping, as though ”He” would sleep forever.

At the same time, the fog dissipated and illusory starlight shone into the hall.

This ancient palace suddenly appeared in the dark and mysterious astral world, appearing at the peak of the Hornacis mountain range.

The Concealment had been removed, and fate began to be exchanged.

At this moment in the Forsaken Land of the Gods, on one of the mountain peaks, a shadow-like curtain appeared on the surface of a huge cross. It cracked open and a man walked out from it.

”He” was Adam, dressed in a simple white robe with a thick blond beard. Behind ”Him” was a thick shadow with five heads.

This shadow had partially merged with ”Him,” but it hadn't completely become one.

Adam raised ”His” head and looked at the astral world which had been distorted from authority and symbolism. ”He” smiled calmly and said to the shadow behind ”Him.”

”They don't seem to be aware of the reason why I used Visionary as the foundation this time.

”I've never told anyone about the results of this research.”

Just as ”He” said that, ”He” proclaimed in a solemn and deep voice, ”I am One, and also Infinity, the Beginning and the End.”

”His” eyes suddenly turned illusory as an ocean that seemed to contain all possible colors that appeared around ”Him.”

Adam then raised ”His” hand and grabbed the silver cross pendant hanging in front of ”His” chest.

A burning but illusory sun suddenly appeared above ”His” head. To ”His” left, lightning, squalls, and waves formed a supercilious phantom. On ”His” right, there was a white tower with numerous brass eyes.

The authorities and symbols that Adam had envisioned entered ”His” body one after another under the influence of the Chaos Sea.

Finally, the shadow that clung tightly to Adam's back shrank into ”His” body.

Suddenly, the sea that contained all the colors began to rise. Adam expanded into a giant shadow that seemed capable of holding up the world.

The shadow slowly walked on the ”water surface” of the illusory, chaotic darkness. It pointed at the astral world and solemnly declared, ”Let there be light!”

In a blink of an eye, the entire astral world lit up. There were no other secrets that could be concealed. Even portions of the astral world that connected to Earth, the entire astral world, and the invisible barrier that had been separated from the universe appeared.

At that moment, giant, indescribable faces seemed to cling to the transparent, cracked barrier, silently watching the developments inside.
