Mystery: Starting with the Night Pope.

Chapter 581 Extra

Klein opened his diary in the gray fog.

Klein is certainly a decent person, but why does he keep a diary?

Of course, even after becoming the "Lord of Mysteries," the spirit and will of his predecessor still influenced him; this was inevitable.

After all, how could the "Lord of Mysteries" possibly wait quietly until the end of the universe?

However, under Truman's influence, the former "Lord of Mysteries" seems to have changed his strategy. Instead of pursuing resurrection, he actively relinquishes his dominance and seeks to become one with Klein, becoming a spiritual Frankenstein's monster, thus achieving an alternative awakening.

In order to resist this integration, Klein developed the habit of writing a diary to define himself. Of course, with the example of Roselle, this diary has always existed only on "Source Castle".

Klein opened the first page of the diary, which was shortly after the end of that "Old Days" war.

"December 3, 1352, cloudy."

"The aftermath of the 'Old Days' war has largely subsided. The churches of 'Sun,' 'Knowledge,' and 'Storm' have been reorganized and have become the new Church of the Creator."

"Among them, the Church of the Eternal Sun experienced a split, with one branch merging with the 'Morse Ascetic Order' into the Dream Cult. I only just found out that 'Hidden Emperor' was actually Truman's alter ego. You can't even show your face without several layers of disguise, right...?"

"I broke the seal on the Western Continent, and the civilizations of the continent began to converge. The gods and the source matter also began to interact, but without the apocalypse, it no longer felt urgent."

"Beyond Earth, through the new illusory realm, interstellar communication has become possible, but it will take time to develop, and the future is promising."

"As for those Outer Gods, well, I don't need to worry about them. I heard Truman and the two goddesses want to set their honeymoon at the edge of the universe. Well, good luck to those Outer Gods..."

"It's worth mentioning that the curly-haired baboons have also discovered the existence of Earth and are able to travel back and forth between the two planets on their own, which is the best possible outcome."

"1353..."

Klein casually glanced at his previous diary entries, then picked up his pen.

"September 9, 1353, sunny."

"It has been some time since the members of the Dream Council became relics of the past. During this time, the former 'Mystery' has clearly changed its target entirely, aiming to turn me into a mind-stitched monster."

"I must say, this is really hard to guard against, especially since He has opened up His memories of countless years. I have fallen into the same predicament that the 'Omniscient and Omnipotent One' once encountered: the more you know, the closer you get to Him."

"Of course, with Truman as my anchor, I can still keep him in check, but I also need to find other ways to resist him and strengthen my anchor."

"The 'Church of Fools' is doing quite well, but that's not enough. I need some more direct anchors, like... family?"

"Okay, actually, I'm getting married and will be starting a new family. I don't have much experience with this, so I'm a little nervous..."

Klein raised his hand and scratched his head. He had never been married in his previous life, and this was the first time he had experienced such an emotional shift.

But without a doubt, this emotion is the "anchor" that allows him to stay grounded.

Klein wanted to write again, but at that moment he sensed something, returned to reality, and opened the bathroom door.

"Ah, I thought you were in trouble," Truman said with a smile.

"I've attended many weddings, and I always enjoy it. I've seen this kind of thing many times before," Truman said, looking completely unfazed and experienced.

"Hmm?" Klein suddenly thought of something. "Then why don't you have your own wedding? Be the star of the show?"

Truman's smile suddenly vanished.

"Sigh, with these two amazing people in the family, we're just grateful if things can stay the same."

"Heh," Klein regained the upper hand, "Actually, what I'm most afraid of right now isn't my ex coming back, but that your powder keg explodes."

"If you two start fighting, half the universe might collapse."

Truman's lips twitched slightly, because it wasn't impossible.

The two left the restroom and headed towards the dreamlike church. At a certain moment, Truman's lips suddenly curled up, and he gestured to Klein with his eyes.

Klein sensed something and instinctively turned his head to look at someone among the wedding guests.

"Triss," Truman said with a slight smile.

"..." Klein kept his expression straight, only nodding slightly in acknowledgment to Triss's deep gaze.

"I remember it was you who saved her." At that time, after Truman sent Chick into the Eternal Dream, the "Primal Witch" could be said to have perished, and Triss, who was merged with the "Primal Witch," would theoretically also be affected and fall into the dream.

However, Klein went to rescue Triss in order to repay her for coming to his aid when he became the "Fool".

The already somewhat strange relationship between the two became even more complicated. Unfortunately, in the end, with Melissa's help, Klein still chose his current fiancée.

But Triss actually came to Klein's wedding! How exciting...

"Hurry up and go up, it's about to begin." Klein returned to his position, and the wedding soon began. Amidst the dreamy holy music, Backlund's most dazzling gem, dressed in a wedding gown, walked slowly towards them, arm in arm with her father, Earl Hall.

Against the backdrop of the dreamlike sacred music, this righteous young lady, now a dreamlike bishop, seemed to radiate a unique brilliance, as if all the beauty in the world had converged upon her.

To marry the most dazzling gem of Backlund, Klein revealed his identity as the "Miracle Angel," though compared to his other identities, the "Miracle Angel" was rather insignificant.

Looking at the radiant bride, Klein felt a little nervous.

"Hurry up and go up!" Melissa nudged Klein's arm from behind.

"Oh!" Klein stepped forward and took Audrey Hall's hand from Earl Hall.

"Mr. World, please guide me for the rest of my life!" Audrey winked playfully with her right eye, her voice echoing in Klein's mind.

"The world will always need justice," Klein replied softly.

The two walked hand in hand to Archbishop Claude.

"I don't know why, but I always feel like the son I raised is getting married," Truman said, stroking his chin.

"Trying to take advantage of us again?" Russell scoffed from the side, just as Truman had done at His wedding.

"As for you, when are you getting married? I definitely want to attend!" Rosell's eyes darted around, and he deliberately raised his voice to make sure that those who needed to hear him could hear him.

Compared to Klein, who was concerned about the universe, Roselle was simply enjoying the spectacle.

Truman's eyes widened suddenly, and then he felt his arms being grabbed.

"..."

"Yes, what about our wedding?" A soft, ethereal voice sounded to Truman's left, and a tranquil and beautiful atmosphere filled Truman's mind.

"I've been looking forward to this for a long time too." The voice on the right was more alluring and vibrant, yet it also inexplicably carried a certain attraction that would lead Truman astray.

Two completely different feelings seemed to be separating Truman. It would be extremely lucky to receive favor from either one, but to have both at the same time would be unbearable for most people.

"..." Truman glared at Russell.

But He didn't care at all, watching Klein's wedding while keeping an eye on Truman's side.

"...I do!"

As the vows were exchanged, the newlyweds officially entered into their marriage contract. At the same time, the sacred music in the dreamlike church reached its highest point, and dreamlike phosphorescent light, symbolizing beauty and fantasy, poured down from the dome, creating a magnificent spectacle.

"...Let's do it now." Truman suddenly grabbed the hands of the two goddesses.

"What?"

"what?"

Both goddesses were momentarily stunned.

"I said, let's get married right now!"

Truman's eyes flashed, and the dream descended into reality.

In this situation, it was the best choice. In this mysterious world, the three of them didn't have any elders or gods qualified to attend Klein's wedding, but they were enough to witness their wedding.

A massive amount of dreamlike phosphorescence descended from the sky, altering reality to resemble Truman's imagination.

An extra seat appeared on the wedding stage. Sasriel was moved to the priest's position, and in addition, some true gods were directly moved there by Truman to serve as witnesses.

Truman's formal attire instantly transformed into a groom's suit, while at the same time, Amanisis and Lilith each donned a wedding dress.

Amanisis's gown was adorned with stars, while Lilith was bathed in soft moonlight. Both goddesses were taken aback by Truman's unpredictable actions and did not resist for a moment. When they came to their senses, they found themselves on the stage.

"Ms. Amanisis, Ms. Lilith, are you both willing to marry Mr. Truman and live with him through thick and thin, sharing his joys and sorrows?"

Sasriel, however, was prepared and went straight to asking the most crucial question.

"..." The two goddesses were stunned for a moment, and looking at Sasliel, they suddenly realized something. Then they looked at Truman and said, "You were prepared all along."

"It was just a thought that came to mind, but the atmosphere is just right," Truman said sincerely.

He raised his hand and conjured two dreamlike rings, looking expectantly at his two wives.

"...I really can't do anything with you." Amanisis sighed softly and raised his hand.

"Hmph, you managed to fool me like that." Lilith was somewhat indignant, but in this situation, she only had one choice.

Two dreamlike rings were placed on the hands of the two goddesses.

"I do," both goddesses said to Sasriel.

"Huh?!" Everyone who knew Truman's three identities, including the true god, was speechless with shock.

The commotion Truman just caused was truly astonishing, even more terrifying than the previous battle. I thought the Outer Gods had joined forces to attack.

Of course, the scene before us doesn't seem any smaller than an attack from the Outer Gods.

"Mr. Truman, do you take Ms. Amanises and Ms. Lilith to be your wives, to live with them through sickness and health, and to share their joys and sorrows?"

"I do."

The two goddesses exchanged a glance and made their moves simultaneously, placing a starry ring and a moonlight ring into Truman's left and right hands, respectively.

"This works too?" Rosell and Klein, who were standing nearby, were both stunned.

"If I say it's okay, then it's okay," Dream said.

small theater:

While Audrey was sorting through her wedding gifts, she suddenly saw a dreamlike crystal ball.

"Klein, what is this?" Audrey presented the crystal ball to Klein.

"It was sent by Truman, wasn't it?" Klein recognized the scent on it at a glance.

"Mr. Truman," Audrey blinked and curiously pointed with her finger.

A flash of light appeared on the crystal ball, revealing gray mist, a palace, a bronze table, and Klein with his face unmasked.

"From this day forward, I am the 'Fool'..."

Klein abruptly turned to look at the crystal ball in Audrey's hand, and a flood of emotions surged within him in an instant.

“Mr. Fool…” Audrey stared blankly at the image on the crystal ball.
