Mysteries: Arcana Wars

"If you're talking about you in the Sixth Epoch, my answer is that you really have such a bad taste!" Leonard felt a stomachache just thinking about it. "You wouldn't really use secret dolls and clones to form a family for yourself, and even specially arrange identities and write a family tree for each person, right?"

It took me a lot of effort to convince myself that the people in your store are actually alive!

"No! They are all real!" Klein said unhappily, "You only think so because they no longer 'exist'!"

With a few wisecracks, Klein cleverly sidestepped Leonard's question about whether Alice Moretti was a brother or a son.

Based on his own experience, Leonard firmly believes that Alice is one of his stable clones.

But after reading the family tree, Klein firmly rejected this idea - he believed that he would never create a clone or a secret doll to marry his sister.

Either the entire family tree is fake, then the authenticity of all the information on it must be questioned.

Either the "Morretti Family" in the Sixth Epoch was really an absurd puppet show created by himself, then the existence of Phantom Melissa and others could not be explained. Could it be that his rebirth did not cleanse the madness from before, and he once again obtained untrue information from the madness?

Either this entire family tree and what the phantom Melissa said were all true, then everything Leonard saw was just what my sixth-era self wanted to show him... which meant that "I" was hiding important information from Leonard.

Klein was confused for a moment.

No matter which speculation it is, first of all, there must be something wrong with this "Alice Moretti"!

Klein closed his eyes. His mind was a mess. All the clues were tangled together. True and false information all came to him. His spirit was unable to distinguish the truth from falsehood of every piece of information he received in the illusion. It was like he had fallen into a huge dye vat and could no longer distinguish any colors.

After taking a deep breath, Klein pulled himself together and decided to sort out his thoughts one by one.

"First, let's start with the existing clues."

Klein pulled out a few wisps of gray mist and turned them into paper and pen, and wrote and drew with Leonard.

"What we can know now is that Alice, Field and Adela, these three people 'exist'.

"Among them, the only one you remember is Alice, and you think he has been 'alive' for a long time and is one of my high-sequence clones. He has fallen into madness and can hardly communicate.

"Adela should be a little girl. The photos in the family shop don't show her as an adult, but you have no impression of her. She is probably the youngest member of the family.

"Field, he should be a man under 30 years old. Although we have no impression of him, we have been hearing his name since I woke up. He is the one who is most closely connected to reality. Of course, this is also because the name is too common..."

As he spoke, Klein drew a picture of Field and Adela, while Leonard drew what he remembered of Alice. After the two exchanged pictures, as expected, neither had any impression of the person on the other's paper.

"That's weird." Leonard sighed.

“As expected…”

Klein put down the paper and leaned back on the sofa.

"Then let's divine these names one by one."

After several divinations, Klein noticed that when divining these names, one must be extremely careful and carefully consider the divination sentences, otherwise the result will deviate to an unknown direction.

Field Moretti on this family tree, where are they now?

Klein closed his eyes, but for a moment his mind was empty, completely clear.

He sat up in confusion and used the same divination phrase with two other names, and indeed got the same result. This left Klein confused.

"Why, did the divination fail?" Leonard asked.

"No, I can feel that the divination was successful, but I saw nothing, and I felt nothing. There was only darkness, nothing... All three people got the same result..."

Klein thought for a moment.

"Do you think there is a possibility that 'nothing' itself is a revelation, a divination result - these three people are together, in a place where 'nothing' exists..."

"There is nothing here..." Leonard muttered to himself. He searched through his memory of more than a thousand years, but still found no clues. "No, I don't have any clues here. But I can go back and ask the old man."

The Pales that is now parasitic on Leonard is just a low-sequence clone. Under the double blow of Leonard's own status and his extremely extraordinary experience, the clone Pales can only serve as a communicator or search engine, and is forced to shut up or disconnect from time to time due to various pollution from the sky.

Every time he came to Klein's apartment, the clone Pales would lose contact with the original body, then close his eyes and fall asleep tactfully, resolutely unwilling to listen to any of the shitty things going on here.

"At least now, 'a place with nothing' is more or less a clue..."

Klein wrote this information on a piece of paper and held it up again to study it for a moment.

Judging from the portrait Leonard gave, Alice Moretti looked like she was not in a clear mind. She was estimated to be only about 1.4 meters tall, dressed like a girl, with long black hair full of colorful hair accessories and many colorful flower ropes, giving people the impression that she had mental problems.

All of Klein's clues about this person are in Leonard's memory, and this memory is fragmented.

As for the little girl Adela, there was no clue at all about the two people. There was only a name, a photo, and some simple personal information.

It seems that the only one with the most clues and the deepest connection with the real world is Field.

Klein decided to start with the name.

In fact, ever since Klein woke up, he always felt that this name had appeared too many times in his life, and it was even a little abrupt. It wasn't just because the name was too common, but he suddenly felt that the name was like a group of ghosts, a bunch of garbled code, always lingering around him, and he always thought it was all because of its "commonness".

"Field Moretti... Besides the fact that this name is so common, don't you think we have seen this name too many times?"

Leonard's eyes suddenly became serious.

As he spoke, Klein picked up the pen.

"Now, let's get this straight. When was the first time we met 'Field Moretti'?"
