Mystery: Starting with the Night Pope.

Chapter 359 Three Questions

"Um...is that okay?" Klein suddenly paused.

"Of course, you can ask me three questions, and I will answer them truthfully." Truman nodded slightly, raised his hand, and gestured for Klein to sit in the high-backed chair opposite him.

Klein sat in his chair, his brows furrowed. He had to seize this hard-won opportunity; there were too many mysteries surrounding him.

"My first question is, why did you lead me down the 'dream' path?" Klein asked after a long silence.

This is asking about the past.

His ability to embark on the "dreamlike" path is undoubtedly an advantage he has over others, even time travelers.

"This is the will of the 'Supreme Dream'," Truman said. He was right!

This means that "Supreme Dream" may have discovered my existence when I transmigrated... Klein pursed his lips.

"..." This time, Klein remained silent for an even longer period of time.

"I want to know if I can escape the shackles of my ultimate fate." Klein finally gritted his teeth and asked the question, risking exposure.

This is asking about the future.

The strange phenomena he encountered during his advancement to "Master of Puppets" have kept Klein from relaxing.

If Truman's image in Klein's mind hadn't been so solid, Klein wouldn't have been able to ask that question.

"...'Supreme Dream' says no." Truman frowned and said again.

Klein's body stiffened, his expression immediately fell, and it took him a long time to recover.

Truman shook his head helplessly; he was far from being truly omniscient and omnipotent.

At the very least, he cannot alter the connection between "Source Castle" and Klein.

Those were the rules set by the "Lord of Mysteries".

Once Klein ascends to the "Source Castle" after his journey, his connection with the "Source Castle" will be unbreakable.

Even if Bethel and Amon did everything they could, and even if Truman himself got involved, they couldn't steal it!

This was also part of the arrangements made by the "Lord of Mysteries" at the end of the Fourth Era. Only through a reasonable struggle among several competitors could the "Source Castle" be taken from Klein.

What does "reasonable" mean? It means control of the "Source Castle," which is to awaken the "Lord of Mysteries." Whoever awakens more of the "Lord of Mysteries'" will within them will gain an advantage in the struggle for the "Source Castle."

However, anyone who obtains the "Source Castle" must also face a "Lord of Mysteries" who is gradually awakening within their body.

This is the "Lord of Mysteries" who makes the genie fearful, the outer gods horrified, and even "God" and "Mother God" wary...

As for preventing Klein from boarding the "Source Castle" from the very beginning, like Truman preventing other time travelers, that would be even more unacceptable.

Should we still have the "source matter" of the Western Continent? If Truman does this, even the gods, Amanisis, and Lilith will have objections.

Of course, you can choose other time travelers, but if you choose a fun person and get "mysterious" directly possessed, then nobody should play anymore.

Klein is the best choice with the fewest variables.

"That's good then." Klein suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. "Supreme Dream"'s judgment was probably the most accurate. If even He couldn't do it, there was basically no hope.

The problem with this answer is that it completely shattered Klein's last illusion, leaving him with no room to retreat, which doesn't seem like a bad thing.

"So what should I do right now?"

That's asking about the present.

The Zarathusian, Abrahamic, and Antigonus families are all searching for him, and now he is in a very dangerous situation.

"Are you still holding that 'Dream' card?" Truman suddenly asked. "I remember reminding you to pay more attention to things related to 'Dream' before you left."

"Uh..." Klein was embarrassed. Bishop Truman had indeed given him a warning, but he didn't seem to understand his intention at the time.

He always left that "Dream" card in the pile of junk in the gray fog...

"Carry that 'Dream' card with you at all times. It is the blessing of 'dream'. With it, you can avoid most people prying into your destiny."

"Yes!" Klein stood up solemnly and bowed slightly to Truman to express his gratitude.

"Alright, you've asked all three questions. You should go home now," Truman said, pointing to a window in the study.

With the money Klein sent back, Benson and Melissa had moved to Backlund and even bought a small estate next to Truman Estate.

Klein is now Truman's neighbor.

"I'll visit the bishop again when I have time." Klein suddenly felt that his longing for his family had pierced through the gray fog and projected into reality.

He bid farewell to Truman, wiped his face, and returned to his original appearance. He went back to Moretti Estate and saw Melissa busy trimming shrubs in the garden as soon as he arrived at the gate.

"Melissa, why don't you hire more maids?" Klein tilted his head, remembering Melissa's frugality, but now that she lives in a big villa, her frugality could be used for other things.

"That's too expensive, it's not like I can't do it." Melissa retorted instinctively, then suddenly realized something, looked up and saw Klein.

"Melissa, I'm back," Klein said with a smile.

"Welcome home." Melissa pursed her lips, then gave a bright smile.

"Klein?!" Benson also came out of the manor at this moment, saw Klein, and was overjoyed.

……

Truman looked away and tapped his fingers lightly on the desk.

After the "Bound God" reorganized the Rose School, Truman returned to this manor, oh, and with his eldest niece.

"So he was the one Uncle chose!" Bernadette walked in from outside the study and sat down directly opposite Truman.

"If he had asked you who you were, what would you have said, Uncle?" Bernadette asked curiously.

"What else can we do?" Truman shook his head slightly. "Tell him everything."

He didn't expect to keep it a secret forever, since it would be discovered sooner or later anyway, so it didn't matter if it was discovered a little earlier.

"Just like you and Dad back then?"

"I have never lied to your dad."

"Hmph, who knows? Unless you teach me Chinese and let me read his diary."

"No way!" Truman rolled his eyes. Bernadette's thoughts had never changed since she was a child. She had always tried to learn those strange square characters from him or Russell under various pretexts.

They even know the vocabulary for the word "Chinese".

My dear niece, it's not that I don't want to teach you, it's just that if I did, your dad would probably fight me to the death...

"I heard that Dad has been helping some people lately?" Bernadette suddenly said.

"Don't waste your time; you won't get the knowledge from those people."

The sudden appearance of such a large number of transmigrators in this world was bound to cause some commotion, and it was quite reasonable that someone would notice their unusual nature.

However, Russell has been covering for them all along, so nothing major has happened yet.
