Chapter 458: 「Illusion Dream」
The grand scene that had occurred behind him flashed naturally through Klein's mind; the ability to pull the Phantom Realm into the Real World was truly terrifying.
But he had something more important than that right now!
Klein maintained the Beyonder Characteristic aggregation force of the cloak behind him and triggered the Causality Thread between himself and Zaratul.
The two of them had reached an irreconcilable end by now; that causality simply could not be hidden!
"So far away?" A sea island flashed through Klein's mind; that was already in the Mist Sea, almost spanning an entire continent away from the Northern Continent battlefield!
"Fortunately, I can jump using the Phantom Realm." Klein dove straight into the Phantom Realm, shuttling through a mass of illusory light and shadow guided by the Causality Thread.
At the same time, the "Snake of Fate" following by Klein's side once again flicked the "Dice of Fate," landing on six!
Found it... Klein's Spirituality provided the answer.
He stepped out from the Phantom Realm, and at this moment, Zaratul naturally saw Klein as well. He did not panic; he took a step backward, and his body had already appeared on the other side of the world.
In the few seconds Klein had been held up, Zaratul had already used Old Zarathul's "Tamper" to graft a stone on the island to the other side of the world.
After seeing the "Snake of Fate" holding the "Probability Dice," he had already abandoned all plans and only thought about escaping with his life!
The greatest advantage of this escape method was its rapid response; it didn't even require the time to open a Space Gate.
Klein's expression changed slightly, only having time to glance at the "Snake of Fate."
"Restart"!
The "Snake of Fate" reacted even faster than Klein, biting its own tail directly and casting this divine skill.
Zaratul's body had already arrived on the other side of the world, but under the effect of "Restart," he was constantly being pulled back to the island.
In a moment of distraction, Zaratul saw the stone that had a connection to the other side of the world; seeing this stone meant he had failed to leave the island.
Old Zarathul tried to reach out and place a hand on Zaratul's shoulder, wanting to "Tamper" with the target and throw Zaratul out of the "Restart" range, but unfortunately, he failed.
Zaratul's pupils constricted, finally feeling absolute danger. He commanded that "Traveler" to come before him, but discovered that this "Traveler's" temperament had changed; it lacked that mysterious feeling like the Starry Sky.
Mr. "Door" had saved him once and had already left.
"..." Zaratul abandoned the thought of contacting Mr. "Door" again and instead fled into the Fog of History.
Facing Klein's pursuit, he had several ways to escape, and even suicide as a last resort was an excellent choice.
Just at this moment, the Historical Projection of Roselle Gustav suddenly turned his head and, with the help of the subtle connection between them, looked at Zaratul's main body.
Zaratul's mind was instantly filled with a massive amount of redundant information and useless knowledge; his head almost exploded directly, and his thoughts could not turn.
His body stiffened there, no longer able to step into the Fog of History.
And at this moment, Klein had already arrived behind Zaratul.
The cloak behind him suddenly turned into the night sky, and the entire world was shrouded under its Shadow.
And the next instant, this patch of night sky covered Zaratul's body, wrapping him within it.
"... You won." Zaratul's pupils became clear; the information in his mind had been purged by him, but he had already lost the chance to resist.
He could only watch with hidden despair and a sigh as his body was covered by the night sky and swallowed by the Shadow.
This method of having one's Characteristic swallowed directly by a higher-sequence being could not be returned from via a "Miracle Invoker's" chance at resurrection.
Klein had long since understood the "death and rebirth" of a "Miracle Invoker"; when he decided to hunt Zaratul, he had already communicated with the "Snake of Fate" and confirmed this method.
"Zaratul, 'Miracle Invoker'..." A complex expression flashed across Klein's face, but the next second he hurriedly hid in Utopia, not daring to show his face again. After returning to Utopia, Klein couldn't wait to return to the Reverse Four Steps and arrive Above the Gray Fog.
"Roselle..." Klein looked toward the corresponding area based on his current causal connection with Roselle.
"This is..." Klein looked shocked, "Has the Phantom Realm invaded Reality?"
The sky had split open, and the Dream Phosphor belonging to the Phantom Realm poured into the Real World. Countless Fairylands were wrapped in Dream Bubbles, and Klein could even sense familiar places like the "Fairy Tale Town" and "Babel Tower" within them.
What about Antigonus and Amon... Klein's gaze locked onto the two Kings of Angels trapped in the Fairyland.
Antigonus just watched everything before him quietly, with no intention of breaking through the restraints of the Fairyland.
Ever since Klein left, he had made no moves, just quietly watching everything happening before him.
Everything around him had fallen into a state of stagnation; even the Rule had failed to discover him.
Before hiding in the Hornacis Mountain Range and not coming out, he had already been a Dream Angel for many years and was very familiar with Dream Phosphor, dealing with Roselle's various methods in the most effortless way.
"Truly interesting, only a bit worse than 'Fantasy Land'!" Amon watched the Phantom Realm invading Reality with great interest, countless rays of Hidden light flashing in his Monocle.
He was decrypting, wanting to obtain more information from the Phantom Realm.
"Then let you see more!" Roselle suddenly revealed a smile.
He reached into the core of the Phantom Realm, groped around a few times, and pulled out the thing hidden deepest within the Phantom Realm.
"This is..." At this moment, everyone except Roselle, including Bernadette and Klein, had their expressions change drastically.
They all had various relationships with Dream and had a relatively deep understanding of it.
"...'Unique Phantom Dream'!"
Everyone received the corresponding information from the thing Roselle pulled out, shocked and speechless.
"How could such a thing exist? Why is this thing here?!"
Klein widened his eyes; he even suspected he had seen wrong.
"That's right, this is the 'Unique Phantom Dream'."
The ball of light in Roselle's hand gradually spread out.
The manifestation of the "Unique Phantom Dream" was also an illusory yet real ocean.
But unlike the Dream Sea, it was a sea of clouds formed by the gathering of countless "clouds."
Purple, black, gray, red—clouds of various colors, each color giving one a different feeling.
These were the dreams of countless lives.
Each color represented a type of dream; for example, those surging pink clouds were wonderful dreams full of spring scenery.
