Chapter 234: Dual-Pathway Beyonder
"Possessing two Pathways at once?!" Klein was incredulous.
"I think highly of you precisely because you have this potential." If Chumen said so, it must be true.
"Your soul seems to be stronger than that of an ordinary person, even twice as strong..." Under Chumen's various nonsensical claims, Klein believed it.
Perhaps it was because of the fusion of two souls; this seemed to fit the Transmigrator's Law... Klein muttered to himself.
"So, I can give you a chance," Chumen said, implying something.
But Klein had completely calmed down by now.
Chumen was very satisfied with this; some of Klein's excellent qualities would always manifest at critical moments.
"The 'Dream' Pathway does not require the consumption of a Potion, so there is no issue of losing control..."
"But a Beyonder of the 'Dream' Pathway can also obtain corresponding Beyonder abilities, and compared to ordinary Beyonders, they can even be more powerful."
"Furthermore, due to its Dream characteristic, it can suppress the madness of other Pathways..."
Chumen gave Klein a rough introduction to the 'Dream' Pathway.
"... Then what do I need to pay?"
After weighing it for a minute, Klein confirmed his own intentions; he was quite repulsed by those whispers, and perhaps the 'Dream' Pathway, which claimed not to lose control, could solve this problem?
Of course, Klein was also very clear that such an "opportunity" would not descend for no reason.
"Of course, I have a commission. As long as you complete it, I can hold a ritual for you to become a 'Wish Granter'."
"By the way, 'Wish Granter' is Sequence 9 of the 'Dream' Pathway; this is a very special Sequence 9."
"How is it special?" Klein asked, following Chumen's lead. He urgently wanted to know more intelligence to judge whether he should complete this commission.
"It is similar to your current 'Diviner'; it won't provide any improvement in physical fitness or combat ability. It will only grant you powerful Spirituality."
"The higher the Spirituality, the more things you can accomplish."
"There might even be some delightful changes."
Chumen deliberately held back, piquing Klein's curiosity.
"Delightful changes?" Klein asked curiously.
"Directionality." Chumen took out a gold coin. "For example, if you wish for money, your Spirituality will gain a direction in that regard."
"It could be a profitable stock, or it could be picking up money while out..."
This directionality is enviable... Klein's eyes lit up.
"Then what about the commission?" Klein asked cautiously.
"The commission I'm giving you is actually very simple: go to Tingen University, where you previously studied, and meet your teacher, Azik Eggers."
"What?" Klein had been prepared to take a "limited" risk, but he hadn't expected it to be such a commission.
Shouldn't it be kicking the 'Secret Order' and punching 'Antigonus'?
Of course, the current Klein couldn't do such things anyway.
"Why is it this kind of commission?"
Klein asked. He subconsciously felt some resistance; this task involved his teacher.
He didn't know what kind of relationship Bishop Chumen had with his teacher, but his role as a "messenger" might cause Teacher Azik to make some unfavorable decisions.
"Rest assured, this does him no harm. I am just giving him a choice," Chumen said very calmly.
"I am an old friend of his, too. You can also consult him on this question."
"..." Klein nodded silently, preparing to go back and make a decision.
"That will be all. Go back and adapt to your abilities today, and come report in two days."
"Regardless of anything else, I must thank Bishop for giving me this opportunity," Klein thanked him sincerely.
Chumen smiled and nodded, watching Klein leave.
"Azik Eggers..." He had been missing for over a thousand years, wandering the North and South Continents, completely blending into the ordinary people.
But some things are always impossible to escape.
Chumen had not forgotten that the 'Death' Salinger, whom he had finished off, still had a resurrection contingency on Azik.
Back then, what he killed was a Death at the level of a 'Half-Old One', and with the existence of the 'River of Eternal Darkness', he hadn't managed to erase all traces of 'Death'.
However, for him and Amanises, it was better if 'Death' was completely dead.
It was the very next day that Klein arrived at Tingen University.
He was very familiar with this place, and soon he found Azik Eggers.
The current Azik Eggers was still young, with bronze-colored skin, black hair, and brown eyes, his features slightly weary.
For over a thousand years, He had settled in many places across the North and South Continents and the islands, once marrying and having children like an ordinary person.
He had been settled here at Tingen University for some time now.
"Klein? You've come to see me?" Azik Eggers was somewhat surprised to see Klein's arrival; he invited him in and poured a cup of black tea.
"Mr. Azik." Klein greeted this teacher.
By now, he roughly knew that this teacher was likely more than just a history instructor.
"Mr. Azik, I am here to see you in my capacity as a Nighthawk of the Evernight Church."
"Bishop Chumen of Saint Selena Church asked me to convey his greetings to you on his behalf."
Klein stated his purpose directly so that he wouldn't need to struggle with it.
"Chumen... Bishop?" Azik Eggers was clearly stunned, but He quickly thought of something, His expression becoming somewhat complex.
"Mr. Azik, should I not have come here?" Klein looked at the change in Mr. Azik's expression and suddenly felt a bit ashamed.
"No, you came at just the right time; you probably saved me once." Mr. Azik's expression was very gentle.
"I have known that Chumen... Bishop for a long time. He is trustworthy and means well for me, it's just that the problem I have is slightly complex."
Azik explained, telling Klein not to worry about it.
He was silent for a moment, perhaps also feeling that Klein was a very good listener at this moment.
"I met Bishop Chumen a long time ago; he saved my life and even promised that he could resolve all my difficulties."
"But out of a selfish desire to remain in my current situation, I hesitated for a long time."
"Now you have reminded me that there are some things that cannot be avoided."
"However..." Azik looked at Klein, thoughtful, "That Bishop Chumen must think very highly of you, right?"
"Probably." Klein could also feel it.
"That is excellent." Azik laughed, "You are a very outstanding student; being able to gain his appreciation will likely allow you to achieve even greater things."
"But I am somewhat apprehensive." Klein also decided to reveal a portion of this to his teacher.
"Hmm..." Azik understood Klein's thoughts, then said, "He is a good man."
