Secret: I can play two paths

Chapter 189 It's very simple, you just become a god

Tingen, Daffodil Street 2.

Klein stood at the door and did not move forward, a hesitant look on his face.

At this time, Star urged from the side:
"You'd better hurry up, otherwise the longer you delay, the greater the risk."

"You don't have to expose everything. Just find a reasonable reason and travel far away."

"Besides, I have already explained part of it to you."

After all, it was possible that Klein would still be under Ins's attention, and Star was not prepared to let Melissa and Benson really get involved in this storm.

Star also didn't have the ability to stay by Klein's family and keep them from knowing.

So the conclusion is the same as what Klein just discussed:
Although there was no need to let Melissa and Benson think that Klein had died in the mission, they couldn't stay here. This would probably be the last time they would see each other in recent times.

Unless Klein really wants to return to the church?

That's not impossible, but Klein thinks the risk is too great.

After all, the person opposite him is a saint who possesses the "Level 0 Sealed Artifact".

If I stay with Benson and the others, I will only put them in danger.

And then there is that mysterious gray fog.

That gray fog whose essence is close to the divine level!
With such a secret, Klein was afraid that the gray fog would bring him huge trouble sooner or later, and splatter blood on Melissa and the others.

And Star considered Klein's other mortal enemy, so he nodded and acquiesced to Klein's proposal:
For now, there is no need to say too much to Melissa and Benson, just reveal some of the details.

Of course, speaking of revealing things, Star felt that he had already said a lot of things, and it would be easier for Klein to explain things to his family later...

Star also agreed with Klein's opinion. Even if he could ensure that this meeting would not be leaked to anyone, what about next time?

Let’s wait until Klein is strong enough to protect his family.

Star still remembered the scene when he and Klein started arguing because they thought they might not be able to fight against "0-08" in the future and decided to just forget it:

At that time, he revealed some things to Klein in a humorous way and said to Klein, "It's very simple, he has become a god."

There is the Gray Fog Space, a divine artifact that has been of great help to Klein in becoming a god and has also given Klein several lives.

If Klein continues to be complacent and says that he can't become a fool, then who else is more likely to compete for the Sequence 0 of the Fortune Teller's Path than him?
To this end, Star did not hesitate to let go of his "player" nature carelessly while laughing. Yes, it was the "player" nature, not Star's (realism).

Went for some fun.

The scene at that time can be described like this. (See this comment, it is a game, and it is a bit out of place in the main text)
Of course, having said that, Star did feel that he was a little bit over the top at that time, and his "player" mentality was a bit too much, but it is also possible that he would not reveal too much.

They will not reveal the general contents of Klein's deification ceremony. Instead, they might say that Klein is a Beyonder who became a deity out of poverty, and choke Klein to death.

If you think about it this way, it seems that it makes sense for Klein to shut him up in time.

Of course, after such a long speech, Klein also knew that he had a big secret. It turned out that he was able to be resurrected because of the gray fog space - this important item that Star had certified as helpful for becoming a god.

It seems that when the soul possessed Klein that day, there was also such a resurrection process?

Therefore, if we follow the path of "Fortune Teller" which is closely related to the gray fog, maybe we can find the secret of time travel and the clues to return home?
Moreover, when I become stronger, I can really rely on this mysterious space above the gray fog.

From what Star had described, it seemed like it was of a pretty high rank. Could it contain important potion ingredients needed in the later stages?

Klein speculated based on the principles of extraordinary items, wondering if the gray fog space might be an extraordinary item generated by combining a high-level item from the "Fortune Teller" path with a certain specific item.

At the same time, Klein unknowingly let go of his last bit of defense against Star:

It turns out that Star really knows the value of the gray fog space.

Under such circumstances, he didn't seem to have any intention of coveting the gray fog space.

Although the gray fog space seemed to be non-transferable, Klein felt that:
For something like a divine artifact, Star chose to bless himself to possess this gray fog space.

This is not the mentality of "being afraid of my brother driving a Land Rover" at all...

He really is, I'm crying... Klein couldn't help but sigh.

Of course, this doesn’t mean that Klein has any further thoughts about becoming a god. It was just Star’s joke.

Although Star was also happy to see himself suffer.

But there is a companion like this who you can confide your secrets to.

Klein was still somewhat touched.

People are in a "different world", even if they have to be separated from their colleagues and family for a while.

With such a companion, the journey ahead would surely be less lonely and more fun. However, even so, Klein always felt that Star seemed to take great pleasure in making fun of him...

So, Star is a bit hateful!
Klein twitched the corner of his mouth.

Just like a cat wiping its paws and wanting revenge, he thought that if he could really become a god or a high-sequence warrior in the future, he would definitely get revenge on Star.

However, I wonder what sequence Star is at now? When will he be promoted to Saint?
Also, is a lawyer really the path to his true identity?
Star actually said that this meeting would definitely not be discovered by anyone.

Does the path that “lawyers” take have this kind of power?

And the previous unsuccessful attempt to spy on Star’s fate made Klein wonder: Is Star really a “lawyer”?

At the same time, Klein, who no longer had the church as a channel for accessing mystical knowledge, felt bitter:
Well, he still didn't know enough about this world of occultism.

But after Klein learned that all the gray fog space on his body had an extraordinary origin, he also felt the pressure from Ins.

Klein also gained more motivation to work hard to improve himself.

Even if it wasn't for revenge against Ince who had cheated him out of 15,000 pounds.

You also have to gain more strength to avoid falling into crisis.

Moreover, Klein, who realized the value of the gray fog space, also remembered that Star had mentioned a long time ago:

This world will end!

So, for this important item that could help in becoming a god, does Klein think he can really bring it back to Earth?
By then, it might be just like what is described in some storybooks, he is contaminated by the "cause and effect" of the grey fog, and after becoming stronger with the help of the grey fog, he will either peel off the grey fog, or stay here and contribute to the doomsday?

In short, Klein will have a sense of urgency to become stronger for a long time to come.

In addition to studying the occult, finding a way to return home is also a way of self-protection!
Of course, this is his long-term goal.

At the moment, Klein was stumped by a not-so-high door in front of him. He frowned slightly, turned to look at Star, and hesitated again.

Well, Star has already said that the longer it goes on, the more variables there will be.

If you want to meet, now is the time.

So Klein finally stopped procrastinating on the matter and gently knocked on the door.

……

Boom boom boom!
Melissa, who was working on a math problem, turned her head to look at the door and thought to herself:

Is this Klein's return?

After all this time, this big fool can finally meet them?

She jogged hastily to open the door.

It can be imagined that it was not Klein who knew the correct answer directly, nor was it Melissa who had high inspiration, but that the "psychological suggestion" arranged by Star was about to lose its effect.

After all, Melissa and the others were worried about their family. Even though they had psychological hints that Klein was not dead or missing, but just on a business trip, they still hoped that Klein would come back.

Now, they finally saw the real person - the figure with black hair and brown eyes and a scholarly air!
Klein!
Melissa suddenly felt distressed and took a step forward to hug Klein.

At this moment, the psychological suggestion made before suddenly failed. Melissa woke up because of the emotional fluctuations caused by seeing her relatives:
Yes, how did they manage to wait patiently these past few days and believe that Klein would come back—

Normally, shouldn't you call the police as soon as possible?

Or did they realize something was wrong when Officer Dunn told them that Klein was on a business trip? How could their loved ones leave without saying goodbye?

But all these doubts were soon drowned in the joy of family reunion. Fortunately, Klein really came back, otherwise she and her brother Benson would be the only ones left in this family.

Looking at Klein, Melissa took him to meet Benson, and then asked with some doubt:
"Klein, why have you been missing these days?"

"Also, our behavior is also very strange..."

Her voice suddenly became quieter, and she felt a little ashamed that they couldn't notice anything wrong with their loved ones.

Klein smiled. He already knew that Star had asked Melissa and the others to temporarily ignore this matter in order to cover it up.

But at this time, he still had some feelings:

It turns out that this is how the ability of a "psychologist" can be used.

And I can't help but be a little wary:
Beware the "audience"!
Fortunately, Star has no bad intentions, otherwise the "audience's" ability to arrange ordinary people would be too terrifying.

I wonder how effective the ability of the "audience" will be on extraordinary people?
Thinking of the extraordinary world, Klein suddenly fell silent, then slowly spoke:

"Benson, Melissa, I have something to tell you."

……

After a while, Klein told a lot about his experiences, which had been processed in a certain way, as if he was laying his cards on the table.

Inspired by the incident with Sir Deville, Klein revealed the existence of extraordinary power.

Of course, it’s just a little bit, and I told them not to explore, otherwise they might put themselves in danger.

He used the Antigonus family notebook as an example, saying that if they hadn't been luckier at the time, they might never have seen Klein again.

The same thing happened now. He had offended a vicious criminal who also possessed such extraordinary powers.

So I had to hide for a while until the authorities caught the criminal.

When Klein said this, he said bitterly in his heart:

If I could, I would take revenge on this criminal who has caused me to lose fifteen thousand pounds.

Of course, this is only part of the reason why Klein is hostile to Ins. His hostility towards Ins is also due to the fact that Ins used the Aurora to almost destroy Tingen, preventing him from seeing his family.

"In short, this is what happened. I wonder if you believe in the existence of this kind of power?"

After Klein finished telling these stories, he exhaled and observed his family's reactions.

He nervously picked up a cup of black tea and sipped it slowly with a serious look in his eyes. He was afraid that Melissa and the others would have some unacceptable reactions.

But to Klein's surprise, Melissa and the others agreed in unison:

"Okay, Klein. No matter what trouble you get into, we, as your family, will support you."

"Besides, you didn't do anything wrong."

Klein breathed a sigh of relief and casually mentioned:

"So you believe in the existence of this extraordinary power?"

Benson smiled and said:

"I felt something was wrong when I saw you coming back. I was wondering why I was as slow as a curly-haired baboon."

Melissa and the others looked at each other, and finally everyone relaxed in the midst of such teasing.

Klein also felt a sense of warmth and comfort in this atmosphere.

But he thought of Ins and felt that he could not stay too long, so he wanted to leave after another round of chattering.

But before he left, Klein heard a question from Melissa that almost frightened his heart to death.

Klein thought Melissa knew that he had formed a secret organization.

Fortunately, it wasn't the case, otherwise Klein's life bar in the social sense would definitely be cut by half!

Melissa simply added a specific description of the problem, wondering if Klein had joined some mysterious organization in addition to the security company that had ties to the police when he came into contact with the notebook.

Afterwards, Klein did not give a direct answer, but said somewhat angrily that it was not convenient to talk about it.

……

When he saw Star using unknown means to cover up at the door, Klein mentioned this matter and said with some confusion and dissatisfaction:

"Star, I was so scared. I almost thought you revealed the Tarot Club information."

Star glanced at Klein and said something that shocked him:
“In fact, I wrote it according to this template.”

After a pause, seeing Klein opening his mouth to say something, Sta continued:
"Of course, I only told you part of it. If they knew it, they might think that you were noticed by Mr. Fool during the incident with the notebook."

Klein smacked his lips helplessly and complained in his heart:

But I don’t even have any secondary accounts now, how can you expect Melissa and the others to believe me?
This will be exposed...

Fortunately, Melissa did not mistakenly think that he was the kind of person who accidentally joined a secret organization and served as an official Beyonder at the same time. Klein could accept it.

But he looked at Star and complained:

"If that's the case, you're making up a story to deceive people, right?"

Star smiled and said:

"What I said was true. It's not my business how they were misled."

This seems to be correct... Klein recalled what he had learned about Star's words and had to nod.

Well, this kind of truth is considered to be better than joining a secret organization than pretending to be the leader of an evil god and "playing the tiger and eating the pig".

At least it won't be socially fatal.

Then, Klein heard Star add:

"Besides, if you want to lie, how can you lie with the truth?"

"Don't accuse me wrongly."

Klein was stunned after hearing this.

It seemed like what Star said made sense, but I always felt like something was wrong.
