Lord of Mysteries: The Color of the Stars

Julian was instantly alarmed by "Starry Night's" overreaction.

Perhaps provoked by the "True Creator," this guy once again attacked the source of the noise, Hynas Vancent, and the "Thief" pathway, the Extraordinary Lanius, like a mad dog.

To be honest, killing two Aurora Society cult members wasn't a big deal for Julian, since these guys were, in a sense, notorious for their evil deeds.

In addition, Julian himself has an official background and is an unofficial member of the "Night Watchers," so even if something happens, he himself won't really be in any trouble.

However, such consequences would not be in Julian's interest, and would greatly disrupt his plans.

On the other hand, this would also reduce a lot of the fun. After all, in a sense, the "Aurora Society" is one of the top secret organizations in the mysterious world that is good at creating trouble. Julian does not want to completely break ties with these people at this critical juncture.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't kill my 'pet'!"

Julian cursed inwardly while risking becoming stronger again from the incomprehensible ravings of the "True Creator," and diligently chanted the name of the "Goddess of Night," Amanisis.

In this way, the ramblings of the "True Creator" became clear again, but in exchange, the "Color of the Stars" was suppressed once more.

The spreading, radiating rainbow abruptly stopped about 2 centimeters in front of Haynes Vancent, and then receded.

"Starry Night" performed the same thing against Lanius.

But whether it was because His malice towards Lanius was greater, or for some other reason, this "fraudster" was still tinged with a hint of neon color before the brilliance of the "Starry Night" completely receded.

At that moment, Lanius's eyes suddenly became vacant.

Through the extraordinary abilities of the "Four-Colored Awakener," Julian clearly saw that the neon color entered Lanius's body in the blink of an eye.

A neon light appeared deep in his eyes, a light that blocked out everyone else present, except for Julian's figure and the colorful light around him.

"what?"

Suddenly, Julian realized that there was some kind of inexplicable connection between himself and Lanius. He felt that he was beginning to be able to subtly influence and manipulate Lanius!

The feeling was very similar to when he injected the "Starry Sky" pollution into the crystal ball. In other words, when Julian stopped the "Starry Sky's" original act of slaughtering Lanius in time, the remaining part of its influence was not enough to kill the other party, but it just happened to form a kind of pollution that would not be visible.

If that were all, Julian could understand, but soon something even more incomprehensible happened.

The murmur of the "True Creator," which had become clearer due to the weakening of the "Starry Night" hum, began to rise even higher. Numerous whispers, with an extremely high information density, began to pour into Julian's ears through the sealed artifact.

On the other hand, Hynas Vancent did not seem to have any intention of stopping Julian from "listening" any longer; he simply stared at Julian with empty eyes.

This put Julian's mind in a near-torn state once again, causing his thoughts to become stagnant and making it more difficult to suppress the "Starry Night".

However, just when he felt he was about to give up, the frantic and extremely dense delirious babbling suddenly stopped!

A few seconds later, a clear and organized voice rang in Julian's mind:

"Julian Albrecht..."

What?

Is this the "true Creator" calling my name?

Julian was stunned.

But before he could think further, his "Four-Colored Awakener" potion suddenly began to be digested at a great pace!

"What's the underlying principle?"

This sudden change left Julian completely bewildered.

Just then, Haynes Vancent's eyes suddenly cleared again. He released his grip on Julian's right hand and smiled:

"It seems you have heard the whisper and received a remarkable revelation."

"...It seems so."

Julian nodded slightly, a look of gratitude appearing on his face.

Then, he asked in a tone that sounded like he hadn't had enough.

"Was that... the original creator? Or, as you said, was what I just heard the voice of my inner divinity?"

"Yes."

Hainas nodded:

"However, it's an omnipresent deity speaking directly within you."

"Waaah..."

Upon hearing this, Julian beckoned to Lanius under the table, and the "fraudster" immediately used "mental interference" on him as he had intended.

In that instant, Julian experienced a series of hallucinations, including seeing his great-grandmother from his past life.

This made his nose tingle, and tears involuntarily streamed down his face.

"Truly magnificent...truly awe-inspiring..."

Julian's eyes trembled, and he looked at Haynes Vancent with gratitude:

"Before today, I had never understood the meaning of life, nor had I ever listened to my inner desires and voice."

"Thank you, Hainas, you helped me rediscover myself."

Upon hearing this, Haynas and Sirius Arepis exchanged a quick glance, and then Haynas spoke rapidly:

"No need to thank me, I am just one of the many humble messengers of the gods."

Instead of thanking me, dedicate yourself to the "original Creator" and devote yourself to the great cause of awakening all life.

We've finally managed to extract your true intentions... As expected, that so-called "listening" was just a ploy to corrupt me with the "true creator" and make me serve the "Aurora Society."

Julian nodded emphatically as he silently grumbled to himself:

"What can I do for God?"

"As far as we know, you seem to have some connection with the 'Night Watchers'."

Hainas began.

"Yes, the 'Night Watchers' are providing me with shelter, and in exchange, I will also provide them with some assistance."

Seeing that the other party had indeed grasped his connection with the "Night Watchers" as he had expected, Julian simply didn't hide it and immediately nodded in acknowledgment.

"very good."

Haynes nodded, then quickly glanced at Sirius Arepis before continuing:

"To be honest, the Night Watchers often cause us a lot of trouble, and many of our comrades have died at their hands... These servants of the Goddess of Night greatly hinder our great cause of preaching the word of the gods."

"Therefore, if possible, in order to preserve more of this cause, could you please provide us with regular information on the 'Night Watchers'?"
