Chapter 356: Guesswork

~7 min read 1,256 words

Klein could no longer describe just how spectacular the events of the past two days had been.

Everything felt like a dream.

Before participating in this crusade against the Blood Sect, it wasn't as if Klein hadn't considered the final outcome, but it had always boiled down to either success or failure.

Yet, the world is unpredictable, and things always veered toward the most absurd direction.

"My messenger miss is actually an Angel! Oh, now she is the Rose Pontiff."

In terms of status, she is second only to the "God of Binding," equivalent to the Pope of the Evernight Church's Ningjing Jiaotang.

This kind of status is already quite absurd.

"My team was forcibly broken up, leaving only me and the poet classmate. Miss Sharon became the Pontiff's disciple and was personally bestowed an Angel Characteristic by the True God, making her a quasi-Angel. It is said that the Characteristic came from the previous 'Divine Sin,' which is of extraordinary significance."

"Maric also received a corresponding bestowal; it seems to be the Sequence 2 'Blood Duke' of an adjacent Pathway..."

Under the blessing of the "God of Binding," these two will likely become Angels at the fastest speed, eventually leading the Rose School of Thought to take a further step.

It is now "Tarot Club" time.

The "Hanged Man" looked toward the "Hermit," knowing what mission Cattleya had been executing recently.

Klein created the dummy "The World," then summoned all the gathering members Above the Gray Fog one by one.

Only after getting far enough away from the Rose School of Thought headquarters did he find a hidden place, perform the Reverse Four Steps, and arrive Above the Gray Fog.

Of course, the most incredible thing is the return of the "God of Binding," who reclaimed the Authority usurped by the evil god "Mother Tree of Desire."

In fact, the "Hanged Man" himself was also carrying out a mission to suppress the Blood Sect followers, but he was a bit too far from the center to learn more central intelligence.

"The mission to suppress the Blood Sect has ended," the "Hermit" said directly. "You can go to any Dream Church to settle the mission."

"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool..."

"Does anyone have an understanding of the situation in the Southern Continent?" The "Hanged Man" was slightly eager; after hesitating for a moment, he tentatively asked.

"What?" Many people who were not too familiar with this were astonished.

"Let's begin." Klein looked around and nodded slightly.

"I didn't expect to be able to truly witness a miracle," Klein sighed. He pushed open the window and saw the Rose School of Thought headquarters outside, which had already been rebuilt.

With just a thought from the Pontiff, the fragments of the half-destroyed Rose School of Thought headquarters grew hands and feet, each finding its place and putting itself back into its original position.

This place had once been tainted by the aura of the Undead Army, and a terrifying "Sacred Tree" had even been sacrificed here. Klein even guessed that the "God of Binding" had ascended to the divine throne here.

Klein found a random reason to go out, and the people of the Rose School of Thought did not stop him; after all, he could now be considered a great benefactor of the Rose School of Thought.

This is the version widely circulated in the outside world; in Klein's own understanding, that "God of Binding" had truly become Sequence 0.

His mindset has changed drastically now; after all, he had just participated in a major event like the "God of Binding" ascending to the divine throne.

The diary reading and trading segments slipped by quickly; the Sequences of the "Tarot Club" members were no longer low, so the interval for advancement was becoming longer.

After being brought here by the Pontiff, Klein also witnessed what is called Angel-level architectural ability.

"The Blood Sect has become a historical term," the "Hermit" said with a hint of emotion. The things she had participated in previously also gave her a sense of being in a dream.

Just suppressing a Demigod had provoked so many Angels, and the final return of the "God of Binding" was even more chilling.

"The return of the 'God of Binding' reclaimed the Authority usurped by the evil god 'Mother Tree of Desire' and reorganized the Rose School of Thought. The current Rose School of Thought is equivalent to an Orthodox Church," Mr. "The World" added proactively.

"This..."

"Could you introduce more? I am very interested!" Miss "Justice" asked with great interest.

"'Divine Sin' atones, the Rose Pontiff returns..."

"The World" and the "Hermit" shared the intelligence they knew with the members of the "Tarot Club."

Knock, knock... Mr. "Fool" tapped the edge of the table, attracting everyone's gaze.

"Wrong, it was not reclaiming the Authority, but ascending to the divine throne."

Mr. "Fool's" tone carried a bit of nonchalance, as if this were just a trivial matter.

"Ascending to the divine throne?!" Everyone's heart was shaken; Sequence 0 was beyond the cognition of too many people.

"Perhaps, the 'Mother Tree of Desire' and the 'God of Binding' are a kind of ritual? Is it a Dream?"

Mr. "Fool" asked himself, which was Klein's guess after synthesizing all the intelligence.

After all, regarding the "Dream" he had learned about, that was truly a terrifying big shot who calculated everything and had no rivals. This time, the "Mother Tree of Desire" was likely her opponent; clearly, this one also lost.

This question from Mr. "Fool" stirred up even greater waves in the hearts of the "Tarot Club" members.

"The overlapping and intertwining of the honorific names of the 'Mother Tree of Desire' and the 'God of Binding' began a thousand years ago..."

This is a conspiracy that has lasted for over a thousand years, the thought flashed through everyone's mind.

Is that "Dream" in Mr. "Fool's" words the "Supreme Dream"? Is this a layout targeting the evil god "Mother Tree of Desire"?

Mr. "Fool's" question did not cause His image to collapse in the eyes of the "Tarot Club" members; instead, it felt more real.

Mr. "Fool" is neither omniscient nor omnipotent; this is the most reasonable image.

"Heh... you may continue." Mr. "Fool" thought for a while, then shook His head slightly at the others who were extremely nervous.

"..." The others looked at each other, feeling that Mr. "Fool" had the answer, but the entire answer was not something they could probe.

After a relatively long period of silence, Miss "Magician" brought up another topic.

"The Abraham Family has recently had a large number of family members arrive in Loen, and quite a few have even come to Backlund."

Miss "Magician" said, sharing the intelligence she had obtained from her teacher.

At the same time the major event in the Southern Continent occurred, the Northern Continent was also surging with activity.

"They are all looking for the believers of Mr. 'Fool'." Miss "Magician" carefully glanced at Mr. "Fool," who was hidden in the Grey Fog.

Compared to abstract words like "Grey Fog," "Fool," and "Error," the target the Abraham Family is looking for now is more specific.

"No need to pay attention." Mr. "Fool" did not reveal any flaws thanks to the concealment of returning, but inwardly, He was already on alert.

A more specific target meant that the Abraham Family's understanding of Him was becoming increasingly clear; this was a very dangerous signal.

Mr. "Fool" must remain steady at this time.
