Mystery: Starting with the Night Pope.

Chapter 489 The Hidden Servant

The "Hidden Angel" walks in peace and darkness, with the faint blue-purple light emanating from the deep sleep flowers and night-blooming jasmine illuminating His path.

The phoenix ornament in his hand shone with a golden luster, and the dark, indistinct river water seemed to seep out from it.

Snap!

The "Hidden Angel" suddenly stopped and threw the golden phoenix ornament in his hand in a certain direction.

The ornament made a splash as it fell into the water, while the "Hidden Angel" stood quietly in place, gazing at the river before her with its blue-purple glow.

The familiar darkness, the unreal river—the difference is that the river in the underworld is extremely violent, with the aim of submerging everything and plunging the world into death, while here it is very peaceful and tranquil, which is more in line with the "Dark Heaven".

This is almost an entire tributary, and its scale is even more exaggerated than that of the underworld.

It seems the fate of the tributary that was taken away by the "Supreme Dream" at the end of the Fourth Age is quite clear...

As the golden phoenix ornament entered, the tributary of the "River of Eternal Darkness" suddenly surged.

At that very moment, dazzling dreamlike runes began to flash in the riverbed, drawing dreamlike phosphorescence from the Sea of ​​Dreams to confine the river water to a certain area.

Without anyone noticing, Amanisis had already acquired a large amount of the "River of Eternal Darkness," and there was only one purpose in sending Klein to fetch the water.

……

Klein followed the causal connection to the Tranquil Church, whose main body had replaced the historical projection.

The Church of Tranquility is the sanctuary of the Church of the Night, located in the Amanda Mountains. It is said to have been built by the first pope himself, and it is also the place most closely connected with the "Deep Dark Kingdom".

"Your Holiness the Pope..." Klein's spiritual awareness led him to see the current Pope of the Church of the Night.

Unlike the first popes, this pope did not leave behind any illustrious achievements or fame in history, but in the development of the Church of the Night, he was the founder of the current diocese order and is deeply respected by believers.

"Your Highness, the Angel of Miracles." This was also the first time the Pope had met Klein. His eyes, sparkling with starlight, looked at Klein with gentleness and a hint of curiosity.

This is the first time someone has ever called themselves that...

In general, demigods in the angelic order of major churches are addressed as "Your Highness," while representatives of divine will, such as the Pope, are addressed as "Your Majesty."

"Just call me by my name." Klein nodded slightly.

"May the goddess protect you, Mr. Moretti." The Pope readily agreed.

"Next, we may need you, along with Ms. Ariana and Mr. Samuel, to guard the sanctuary."

Klein suddenly looked behind His Holiness the Pope, where two faint shadows seemed to be slowly emerging.

One of them was Lady Ariana, the head of the archbishops, who was the abbess of the Night Monastery.

He wore a simple linen robe with patched marks, a belt made of twisted bark around his waist, his long black hair was casually draped over his shoulders, and his feet were barefoot and covered with dust and scars.

It is worth mentioning that Ms. Ariana's face had a faint mist on it, making it difficult to see clearly.

Another is the source of the name of the Church of St. Samuel in Backlund, who made outstanding contributions to the spread of the Goddess faith and entered the Kingdom of God during his lifetime, becoming an angel.

He wore the robes of an ordinary clergyman of the Church of the Night, had thick blond hair, and an ordinary face, but his deep eyes seemed to hold countless stars, making him captivating.

"Is this the style of the angels of the Church of the Night...?" Klein calmly observed these two angels, whom he had only heard of in rumors, and nodded silently.

Four earthly angels, plus himself, make five... This is the angel-level combat power that the Church of the Night has on the surface now.

The remaining sealed artifacts or some deeply hidden angel are countless.

"Is it time to begin the defense of the Sanctuary?" Klein asked.

By concentrating all the angels in the sanctuary, they were preparing for the enemy's most frenzied offensive.

"Just now, the Church of War issued a full-scale attack order. We need to be on guard against an attack by angels at any time," the Pope said softly.

With three "Hidden Servants" standing before him, even Klein was unconsciously affected by a sense of peace, and no longer worried about the upcoming war of the gods.

"It is my honor." Klein nodded slightly, accepting the arrangement, and the other two angels also nodded slightly.

"Good afternoon, angels." Klein greeted the two angels first.

Saint Samuel nodded gently. "I heard last time that the Angel of Miracles fought against several angels. I've wanted to meet him for a long time, and now my wish has finally come true."

This refers to the time when Klein killed Zarathustra.

The other lady, Ariana, looked at Klein with eyes no different from any other normal person and nodded slightly.

Taking this opportunity, Klein chatted with the two angels and quickly became acquainted. Of course, Lady Ariana rarely participated in the conversation; it was mostly Klein and Samuel who discussed the war.

"Yes, I just came out of the underworld and encountered Larion and the 'Angel of Life,' but I was eventually rescued by the 'Hidden' Lady."

Klein intentionally or unintentionally steered the conversation toward "The Hidden Angels".

The two angels have worked with the "hidden angels" for a longer period of time, so they may know more information.

Hmm... Klein has kept in mind the fact that the "Hidden Angel" rebuked Antigonus.

Antigonus was practically a "fool," so it would take at least the goddess herself to scare him away, right?

Speaking of which, the goddess was once a follower of the "Destroyer Wolf," so she should know Antigonus.

"The 'Hidden Angel'," Samuel praised the angel highly, "He was the first servant to follow the goddess, the origin of the 'Hidden Servant,' and an angel from the same era as the Dream Pope."

Being from the same era as Truman, and able to rebuke Antigonus, could she be Antigonus's sister, or perhaps "Mother of the Heavens"... Klein made a reasonable guess.

"His Holiness the Pope is the second Pope, and this position was arranged by the 'Hidden Angels'," Samuel revealed this bombshell news.

"Huh?" Klein was shocked. Did that mean that the "Hidden Angel" had removed Truman's identity as the Dark Lord of the Night?

That would be terrible...

Klein looked at Ms. Ariana beside him, wanting to confirm.

"It's true." Ms. Ariana had been quietly listening to her two angel colleagues talk, but now, seeing Klein's questioning look, she nodded slightly.

"The 'Hidden' Lady's contributions to the Church are no less than those of the Dream Pope."
