Mystery: Starting with the Night Pope.

Chapter 437 War

"I treated you as a friend, and you dare to treat me as a bodyguard?!" "Serpent of Destiny" glared at Klein upon hearing his words.

Under the realizing power of the dreamlike phosphorescence, the "Serpent of Fate" almost reached the point in its life when it was most humane.

"I'm finally experiencing the treatment of a stupid serpent!" the "Serpent of Destiny" suddenly exclaimed. It swam in the air, its body shrinking, and landed on Klein's shoulder.

"Urolius, the 'Angel of Fate'?" Klein asked curiously.

"It's Him!" "Serpent of Fate" said, whether with disdain or envy, "'The True Creator' is the most staunch ally of Dream, so naturally He can borrow Dream's power. That stupid serpent was lucky and benefited from it too."

"The 'True Creator'?" Klein paused slightly, suddenly recalling the famous scene of "Dream Assassination of the Creator" shrouded in historical mystery.

His mind stirred slightly as he realized something: "The 'True Creator' appeared at the end of the Third Age and the beginning of the Fourth Age, inheriting the faith of the Creator of the Third Age..."

"Gulp..." Klein couldn't help but ask, "Who is the 'True Creator'?"

"The former 'Vice-King of Heaven,' the 'Dark Angel'!" The Serpent of Fate's tone suddenly turned solemn, and he dared not utter that name.

Klein could only say, "As expected."

"Never mind all that, let's go home first." Klein walked out of Utopia and returned home. The "Serpent of Fate" was quite considerate; instead of withdrawing his consciousness directly, it connected head to tail, coiled into a ring, and turned into a bracelet on Klein's wrist.

"So now I have a personal old man with me?" Klein chuckled.

……

At 3 PM on Monday, Klein arrived promptly above the gray fog and convened the weekly tarot meeting.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool..." It was still "Miss Justice" greeting, but there seemed to be less of a hint of excitement.

Klein sensed something and nodded slightly to "Miss Justice".

"Everyone, a war that will sweep across the entire Northern Continent and even the world is about to begin," Miss Justice warned in a somber tone.

As a member of the highest nobility, she was among the first to receive this type of information.

"War?" The members of the Tarot Club looked at each other, but they also felt it made sense. A month ago, Mr. "World" had already given them a warning, which gave them some mental preparation.

"I received news that the Castile family has mobilized nearly 30% of their army towards Rune, and Fusak is also reinforcing his troops." Miss Justice's tone was unusually tinged with a hint of bewilderment.

Such a world-class war would have a tremendous impact on anyone.

"The Church of the Night has already issued official documents, and is ready at any time for a holy war with the Church of the God of War," Leonard, "Star," added after a moment's hesitation.

"MI9 of Rune is already in a state of war," Hugh, the "Judgment," also said.

Everyone immediately felt the chill of war approaching.

"Why?" Miss Justice asked softly. Once the war begins, the lives of the poor in the East District of Backlund may plummet to rock bottom overnight, even though things have only been improving for a few months.

"Because of the end of the world," "the world" replied coldly.

Klein was about to reveal some important information to his friends.

"You've probably all heard about the end of the world. It's true, and the wars we have now are just about vying for more resources in preparation for that final doomsday."

Mr. World's words echoed above the gray fog, bringing an unimaginable spiritual shock to everyone.

Everyone instinctively looked at the gathering's organizer, "The Fool," hoping to receive some enlightenment from him.

"Heh..." "The Fool" chuckled, "Even Augustus wants to become a god."

Klein's dual-track operation was so skillful that he easily fooled everyone.

The idea of ​​becoming a god, in particular, is chilling.

"This will be a war that affects the world, and we need to protect ourselves." After a long silence, "The World" finally spoke up and offered advice.

"Alright," "Miss Justice" was the quickest to regain her composure. She looked at "The World" and asked, "Mr. 'The World,' do you possess the extraordinary characteristics of a 'Manipulator'?"

Miss Justice decides to upgrade her rank to prepare for potential problems.

"Yes." Klein nodded slightly. With the historical projection, Herwin Lambis was no longer of much value.

The other members of the Tarot Club exchanged glances, a sense of urgency washing over them.

"The Fool" nodded in satisfaction as he watched the Tarot Club begin to curl up. A stronger Tarot Club would be of great benefit to him.

"As for the war..." Klein has been preparing for the ceremony recently, but before the ceremony, he personally witnessed the secret war between the Augustus family and the Castile family, in which all the angels were mobilized.

But in the end, it was Augustus who obtained the "Scepter of Order." William Augustus may have only lacked the "Hand of Order" from the Castilian family among the materials he had collected for achieving godhood.

From this perspective, it is impossible for Rune and Fenneport to make peace. Not only does Augustus want to go to Castile, but Castile will not give Augustus the opportunity to prepare the ceremony.

"What's more, there's also a 'hidden angel'."

Klein shook his head slightly. After the conversation had gone on for a while, the party ended, and he returned to reality.

"You just went to the Illusionary Realm? I couldn't sense your Celestial Body." The "Serpent of Fate" bracelet on Klein's wrist vibrated, and a voice sounded in Klein's ear.

"More or less." Klein didn't reveal anything about the gray fog.

"I'm going to St. Samuel's Church later, will you be found out?" Klein suddenly thought of a question as he was about to leave.

"As long as it's not 'night' in front of us, there's no problem." The Serpent of Fate was very confident.

Hmm… Klein nodded slightly, but after he arrived at St. Samuel’s Church, the bracelet on his wrist suddenly trembled, then stopped a moment later.

Klein subconsciously looked at his wrist. The two red eyes on the "Serpent of Destiny" bracelet had dimmed, and the consciousness of the "Serpent of Destiny" had withdrawn, leaving only an empty shell.

"..." Klein was speechless for a moment, and then he turned around to look at the "hidden angel" that had suddenly appeared behind him.

The "Hidden Angel's" gaze was fixed on the "Serpent of Fate" on Klein's wrist.

Even without the consciousness of the "Serpent of Fate," this is still a product of "historical projection" and "real-virtual transformation," and probably possesses the power of half an angel.

"You call that 'night'? You haven't even passed the 'secret' test..." Klein couldn't help but complain in his heart, then bowed to the "hidden angel".
