Mystery: Starting with the Night Pope.

Chapter 256 The True "Secret"

It's another week of Tarot readings.

Klein arrived above the gray fog ahead of time. His "Clown" potion had been fully digested, and his spirituality had increased once again.

He felt that his spirituality had reached a certain qualitative threshold, and his abilities in both pathways had been greatly enhanced.

So he was going to conduct an experiment in this gray fog.

"The boundary between reality and illusion!"

Klein reached out and grabbed, and it seemed that gray mist surged, and at the end of the bronze table, a man shrouded in a black robe materialized.

Under the gray fog and Klein's "boundary between reality and illusion," the man broke through the concept of "falsehood" and began to come alive, to become flesh and blood, and to become a person.

If Klein saw it as real, then the others at the Tarot meeting would be even less able to tell it was fake.

"The combination of illusion and gray mist, the high level of spirituality in multitasking—it really works!"

Klein stared intently at the "real person" he had created.

With the aid of incredibly realistic illusions and his profound spirituality, his own vision seemed to split into two, gazing at each other.

Klein smiled silently. "Welcome, new member. Which tarot card would you like to draw?"

"World!" The dummy's eyes reflected the image of "The Fool," and he answered in a slightly hoarse voice.

"world!"

Klein was in high spirits. He could now use this alternate account to make his mark in various transactions and better utilize the resources of the Tarot Club.

"We should start collecting materials on 'The Magician'."

The "magician's" potion recipe comes from the illusionary realm, which he earns by working day and night in the illusionary realm, rowing a boat.

Klein calculated the time, then waved his hand, and beams of light rose from the giant's palace.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool..." After the usual greeting, everyone's attention was drawn to the "world" at the end of the bronze table.

"This is Mr. 'World'." Klein was multitasking, controlling "World" to nod while speaking as "The Fool".

"Good afternoon! Mr. World." "Justice" Audrey looked at "World" curiously.

But "the world" merely nodded slightly, appearing quite indifferent.

"Mr. Fool, this is my diary entry for this week!"

“Mr. Fool, I have one too.” Apart from Mr. Sun, everyone else presented Russell’s diary.

Klein readily picked it up and began reading.

"On February 9th, Bernadette was such a little angel."

"But isn't she going to the Dream Castle too much? That won't do; she's spending less time playing with her father."

"The 'Dream' pathway actually has such characteristics? It even possesses an allure in a mystical sense?"

"However, the 'Dream' pathway is truly cheating. Compared to other pathways, its qualitative change comes too quickly and too violently. In higher sequences, it's even more powerful than me!"

"This is definitely **'s fault!"

Klein restrained himself from raising an eyebrow; those two asterisks were really a trap!

He didn't know if it was a copying error or if the name possessed some kind of "secret" magic that prevented others from seeing it.

For example, those who saw his face at the last banquet have already forgotten him. According to Bishop Truman, this is the power of "secret".

"It must be the real name of a powerful and special angel!"

Klein stopped worrying about the name and became more curious about the "dream" pathway.

"On February 30th, I finally figured out why the 'Dream' method is so powerful!"

Klein perked up and quickly continued reading.

"Of course, it's because its founder was awesome!"

Klein was stunned for a moment, then began to wonder if someone had held a knife to his neck while Russell was writing in his diary.

How is that possible... Nobody can understand simplified Chinese.

But why use "founder"? Shouldn't it be considered a desecration of the stone tablet?

Klein wrote down the word.

"The 'Dream' route is free from the intrusion of madness, making it almost the safest extraordinary route, but it is not without its drawbacks."

"The further you go down this path, the more dangerous it becomes! The difference is that the danger comes from the outside."

"Dream can suppress madness, and having a Dream Cultist as a friend is a very lucky thing, but for many crazed monsters, Dream Cultists are actually the best 'food'!"

Klein suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

"I believe that if there wasn't a powerful deity suppressing the 'Dream' path, then Dream followers would definitely become 'food' kept by all the gods."

"Of course, even the dream is now coveted by evil gods such as the 'Primordial Witch' and the 'Primordial Moon,' who want to devour him at any moment."

"I heard that Dream has been involved with other goddesses, including the 'Primal Witch' Chick... This is practically a mysterious succubus, a dreamlike Tang Sanzang!"

Klein's senses pounded wildly, as if he had glimpsed some terrifying secret.

I've only ever felt this way once, when I glimpsed that "Spear of Destiny"!

But are these two "titles" really alright? And what about the one with the goddess...?

Roselle, you're slandering "Supreme Dream"... Klein felt a chill run down his spine and even wanted to pray to "Supreme Dream".

Klein turned the page and looked at the diary submitted by Miss "The Magician".

"On January 1st, at the grand New Year's Eve party, Madame Florent was truly a beauty."

Klein almost couldn't hold back when he saw the first sentence. Why does Roselle write everything in his diary?!

"On January 2nd, Miss Isaka was more charming than Mrs. Florent."

"January 3rd, the witch's taste is really good!"

At that moment, Klein thought of Triss, of "the witch," and of what Bishop Truman had said: "The vast majority of witches are transformed from men."

He was stunned and speechless for a moment, and developed great admiration for Russell.

Truly... rising to the challenge!

Klein took a full two seconds to calm down before continuing to read. The later entries in the diary mostly recorded Roselle's daily life and were not of great value, but they still allowed him to understand some of the customs of the Solomon Empire.

Klein looked at the stack of materialized diaries in his hand and felt that their value far exceeded that of others.

"I've added it to my collection! I've added it to my collection!" Klein made this decision.

"Alright, you can begin now." Mr. Fool leaned back in his chair, digesting the "secret" he had just acquired.

Mr. Fool seems a bit off. Could it be that he's gleaned some important information from his diary?!

Both "Justice" and "The Hanged Man" derive a possibility from the actions of Mr. Fool.

"Ahem! Mr. 'Fool' told me that potion ingredients can be traded here..."

Mr. World came to Mr. Fool's rescue.
