Chapter 410: Concealment

~7 min read 1,238 words

"Amon's avatar has come to Backlund." Klein's expression was grave, and without any small talk, he first took out a Dream Badge, triggered the Dream Phosphor within it to envelop the room, and then directly threw out a "bomb."

This badge was crafted by Klein in imitation of the Dream Card and possessed the miraculous effect of concealing Causality and Fate.

Leonard's eyelids twitched, and his entire state of being tightened instantly.

At this moment, he seemed to hear the heavy breathing of the old man inside his body.

The scene stagnated for a moment; both men and the one Angel were silent.

Leonard repeated this sentence to Klein.

"I will not interfere in your competition, and you shouldn't bother me either." Chumen stated his stance once again.

"So, can we obtain the protection of a True God?" Leonard nodded slightly.

And with the protection of the Dream Card, he could indeed give it a try.

Bethel Abraham had not appeared in the Real World for over two hundred years.

"If I have any information, I will notify you immediately."

If it weren't for running into Amon directly in Reality this time, Klein likely wouldn't have been exposed.

"Hmm." Chumen looked at Amon, rubbing his chin, not knowing what he was thinking.

With a thought from Chumen, "Worms of Time" seeped out from the bodies of the insects in the air, the grasshoppers on the ground, and various living creatures; these "Worms of Time" all flowed backward and returned to Amon.

"That won't do, Teacher. You destroyed my mausoleum last time, preventing me from returning to Backlund in time; otherwise, 'Sefirah Castle' would already be mine."

"This, ah... get used to it, get used to it!" Amon straightened his Monocle and withdrew all the "Worms of Time" into his body.

Klein left very quickly and returned to Moretti Manor.

"What I want to ask is, if I want to eliminate Amon's avatar, what do I need to pay attention to?"

The meaning was already very obvious.

Klein leaned his back against the sofa and relaxed quite a bit; the fear from first seeing Amon only truly subsided at this moment.

In the short time He arrived here, the air was already crowded with Amon, even spreading to the surroundings like a plague.

And what Klein thought of afterward was the Dream Card; that was the protection Chumen gave him, concealing his fate, which was very similar to the power of the Hidden.

"I will try to pray to the Goddess; I will handle everything, you must not be exposed." Klein thought for a moment; if the old man's existence were discovered by Amon, that would be a Disaster.

"Don't dream." Chumen rolled his eyes, "You asked me to destroy his ritual, so if He suggests I destroy yours next time, what will you do?"

"Teacher, you shouldn't mind, right?" Amon's smile was somewhat stiff.

"Then... 'Sefirah Castle'?" Amon had "revealed his true intentions."

This refers to the time when Klein advanced to "Bizarro Sorcerer" last time, and "Sefirah Castle" manifested in the Real World.

In the eyes of those who possessed relevant knowledge, this was a signal that the one known as Mr. "Door" might be preparing for His own godhood ritual!

Once He returns, He will be the true "Door"!

"Good, obtain the Hidden protection first, otherwise absolutely do not make a move." Leonard also nodded.

And a few months ago, Chumen had indeed raided one of Amon's mausoleums; that mausoleum was part of Amon's arrangements, allowing Him to jump back to Backlund at any time.

Klein and Pallez Zoroast inside Leonard were both competitors of Amon; this statement was not wrong at all.

"Teacher, you are biased." Amon sat beside Chumen and said solemnly.

This place was the safest spot in the entire world; right next door was Chumen Manor.

It was just that Klein might never know that the "Time Angel" Amon, whom he feared and guarded against, actually lived right next door to him...

How could He not know He would be discovered? He just felt it was fun, and besides, if Teacher's mindset changed, then He would have profited!

"Heh..." After going around in such a circle, it was still "Sefirah Castle" in the end.

"I am a Divine Favored," Klein said.

"If you have the ability, then snatch it; if you don't have the ability, then hand over the Unique." Chumen directly blocked Amon's words.

"... In the end, I could only leave the scene through the help of Mr. 'Fool'."

"Teacher!" Amon saw the teacher He hadn't seen for hundreds of years.

His fate should have been well-hidden by the Dream Card; this kind of hidden protection would not disappear even if the Dream Card were sealing that cloak.

Given Klein's personality, eliminating Amon's avatar was a must; otherwise, he wouldn't dare stay in this city at all.

"Cough, cough! What's going on?" Leonard broke the silent atmosphere and took the initiative to ask.

"Perhaps it is a line of thought."

"How could it be? Impossible!" Chumen firmly denied it.

"..." Klein cautiously did not answer, because he was not sure of Pallez Zoroast's current intentions in probing him.

Klein recounted Amon's appearance and various behaviors.

"I killed that Demigod rat who was about to lose control, and just when I..."

"Then you tell me why Bethel has disappeared," Amon asked with a chuckle.

"Hidden..." Klein first thought of the symbol representing the "Fool"; that symbol had one half representing the Hidden.

Klein omitted the part about the "Fool."

There was also the Evernight Goddess; Her honorific name contained "Mother of Concealment"!

"Can we pray to the Goddess for protection? Or even report it directly to the Church?" Leonard also thought of the Evernight Goddess.

And once a response from the Goddess was obtained, there would be even less need to worry.

"Not dead yet, what kind of mausoleum are you making!" Chumen laughed and scolded, "Also, the one who destroyed your mausoleum is a competitor; don't come looking for me."

"Then you shouldn't have given Him assistance either. 'Fantasy Land' belongs to the Dream, belongs to everyone who holds dreams in their hearts; it cannot be changed because of Him. I suggest opening up 'Fantasy Land'!" Amon said righteously.

"Then what about the disturbance of Fate?" Leonard's understanding of Amon was even above Klein's.

"He is in 'Fantasy Land', and it wasn't I who trapped him; he imprisoned himself."

And if he had really managed to return and make contact with 'Sefirah Castle' the first time, there might have truly been a sliver of hope; of course, the most likely outcome would have been the 'Lord of the Mysteries' reviving on the spot.

"Old man, what do you think?" Leonard asked Pallez Zoroast directly.

"..." The old gentleman was silent for a few seconds, then sighed and said, "To deal with Amon's avatar in Backlund, one must have the protection of the Hidden, otherwise..."

"I mind very much." Chumen nodded, "So many years have passed, and you still haven't learned well."

"That won't do. If you don't compensate me, didn't I come here for nothing?" Amon argued reasonably, which is consistent with the 'Marauder' truth that 'if you don't steal something, it's a loss'.

"You're even coming to me to sponge off?" Chumen's face darkened.
