Mysteries: Arcana Wars

The simple and plain family tree popped into Klein's mind again. The memory of the mythical creature allowed him to clearly recall the photos of each family member one by one, as well as the brief information below the photos.

According to the time, the ones who are alive at this point in time are Field and his parents, and Adela and her parents. What is more interesting is that the extraordinary sequence of the parents of the brother and sister is not high. The years of birth are not much different, but the years of death are very different. Adela's father died three years ago, and her mother died in December last year, while Field's parents died one after another 150 years ago. According to the records, Field and Adela are still alive.

The difference in lifespans was 150 years, and neither couple was at Sequence 7 or above on the Moon Path. This was indeed somewhat unreasonable. Considering their status, Klein believed that Field's parents could live for more than 150 years... but perhaps the method was not so decent...

No, wait...

If you think about it from another angle...

Klein suddenly had an idea and immediately picked up another piece of paper and started writing.

If I was truly the omnipotent Lord of Mysteries at that time... If my descendants could truly effectively interfere with extraordinary events... If I needed to continue to advance my plans in an orderly manner during the upcoming three hundred years of slumber...

If all this is really necessary...

So is it possible that these two couples chose to take turns guarding their posts during these three hundred years?

In the first 150 years, Field's parents acted in the real world, while Adela's parents slept under the protection of the Lord of Mysteries. When Field's parents' lifespans were exhausted, Adela's parents woke up on time and continued to "watch over" in the real world to advance the Lord of Mysteries' secret plan.

Both couples were at the level of Sequence 7 to Sequence 5, which was not a very high status, and they also did not have any gods to protect them... During their respective 150 years, they completed their missions alone and dangerously...

As the last stroke fell, Klein suddenly felt somewhat powerless... and even a subtle sense of fear.

This was too rational, so rational that Klein felt somewhat resistant. Although he had already accepted the possibility of his future, he still felt a little sad when it was really put in front of him.

This arrangement was necessary, and Klein fully agreed. However, making such an arrangement for his own descendants still made a part of his humanity feel uncomfortable. It made him feel that they were no longer names on the family tree, but subordinates, necessary chess pieces, and very useful... puppets.

This... is a necessary plan...

Klein sighed. Even now, he had to admit that he had no better decision to make when faced with such a situation. After thinking about it, this was always the best arrangement. In the three hundred years without the protection of the Lord of Mysteries or even the Tarot Club, if the "Fool" forces completely withdrew from the Extraordinary World, it would inevitably bring a huge blow to the group of people who originally relied on the "Fool" forces. Similarly, for the "Fool" forces, completely disappearing for three hundred years would also break the original competition and checks and balances, reduce their own impression and overall strength, and completely losing control of the situation for three hundred years would also be fatal.

Therefore, the people who play the role of Night Watchers are particularly important. They not only prevent the "Fool" forces from really being cut off from this world for three hundred years, but also intervene in some extraordinary disasters as a remedial measure. At the same time, the most important thing is to ensure that they and the Tarot Society will return smoothly after three hundred years.

What on earth am I planning in the sixth epoch?!

Every time Klein thought that he was slowly uncovering the appearance of the Lord of Mysteries of the Sixth Epoch, his eyes would blur and he would realize that he actually did not understand the Lord of Mysteries who was so thorough. The occasional discoveries were just a glimpse of Him, not His complete appearance.

But at this point, what choice did he have? Believing in his future self, or his past self, seemed to be the best option. His spiritual intuition told Klein that as long as he followed the arrangements, things would not be too bad.

Those who came before us... have paved the way for us...

If this is the understanding, then Field and Adela, the two younger generations, should be undergoing a long "waiting" and "sleeping" somewhere until the planned moment arrives. They will complete their missions according to their own arrangements and become small gears in this huge machine.

But where is their moment?

As for why he chose [Field Moretti] as a spell instead of [Adela Moretti]... Klein thought it might be because of the age issue. Judging from the photo, the little girl Adela might not even be an adult yet and not "easy to use". It might also be some kind of insistence on minors.

No matter what, it is certain that during the three hundred years when he disappeared, his forces were not in a completely vacuum state. The descendants of the Moretti family who possessed mysterious powers were still acting in secret. This was good news. For the first time since Klein woke up, he felt that he was not walking alone.

So, what is the matter with the pollution with the symbol of "nothingness" that has come to the Moretti family?

In terms of nature, Klein believed that this was definitely a kind of pollution—a kind of pollution that did not belong to Earth. It was this kind of pollution that led to the complete disappearance of the Moretti family and even caused a certain kind of madness in the Moretti family. He further speculated that this source of pollution might have also contributed to his own madness in the Sixth Epoch.

But from the results, after this series of inferences, the Moretti family, who were burdened with this unknown pollution, also gained some kind of power. In other words, they took advantage of the disadvantages of this pollution and turned it into some unexpected advantages, and used this unique power to act secretly for themselves.

This makes a lot of sense. If the Moretti family was cursed by the [Nothingness] and the madness of their own mysterious master, then the rare descendants and abnormal scale are easy to understand. This is a means of controlling dangerous pollution to prevent it from spreading and having unpredictable effects on the real world. On the other hand, if these descendants' daily lives are to walk between secrecy and reality, then the fewer people who know about their existence, the better.

Looking at what happened to him during this period again from the perspective of "pollution", Klein had a new perspective. His use of the [Void Matches] and his falling into illusions were all ways of coming into contact with the [Void Smoke and Dust]. The more he came into contact with it, the more polluted he would be, the greater the impact on his thinking logic, and the faster he would fall into the [Void].

So whenever he thought about Melissa and the others and the [Void Matches], he would always feel confused and easily fall into a vicious circle, or simply confuse it with other concepts, but at the same time he felt that the logic was very smooth and the evidence was very solid. Klein thought, maybe this is also a phenomenon of "pollution" changing cognition. It disturbs other people's thinking with absolutely true clues, silently leads the other party to the direction he expects, and then quietly hides the truth - you can't say this is a lie, because all of this is absolutely true.

Your cognition and your judgment all come from yourself. This power is just like putting a small apple in front of you, and you think there is a bottle of apple juice in the box. But your cognition cannot pry open the box, and you can only look at the exposed scraps and make endless guesses, maybe it is apple juice, maybe it is pineapple juice - who knows?

Klein felt that his thoughts seemed to have gone in circles at a certain point, and then went further and further away. He quickly changed a piece of paper and pulled his thoughts back.

It was like a maze of thoughts that you couldn't get out of. This influence was very disgusting. Although it didn't cause much trouble to me, and everything was unfolding in an orderly manner, it was too secretive, as if it didn't exist at all. Just like a fish bone stuck in the throat, it was difficult to find that tiny spike in the soft reality, and you wouldn't feel any discomfort if you swallowed it smoothly. But if you were aware of the existence of that impurity, you would feel that your throat and stomach were rolling and stinging, and you couldn't tell whether it was a phantom pain caused by your excessive consciousness, or whether the fish bone was really stuck in your throat.

To be honest, if he hadn't been exposed to so many illusions, Klein thought he wouldn't even be aware of the existence of that fishbone.

Faced with these problems, perhaps I do need some unreasonable paranoia so that I can have an anchor in various logical traps and not lose my way - but what if the original point of view is wrong?

This was definitely a very high-level "pollution". The black smoke could even devour the gray fog that was the source of essence. Many bad guesses emerged in Klein's mind. In the worst case, the black smoke might be a source of essence itself.

The more Klein thought about it, the more his head began to spin. It felt like every path was branching outwards, but would eventually lead him back to where he was. It was difficult for him to make an absolute judgment.

Then change the angle, Klein thought. He urgently needed to make some definite judgments and some definite intelligence to pull himself out of these vague sophistry.

Those illusions that popped up from time to time caused Klein a lot of trouble, but they also brought him a lot of information. The detailed description on the blasphemous A4 paper alone directly completed the last piece of the puzzle for his understanding of the twenty-two extraordinary sequences.

If you carefully interpret the illusions about Melissa, you can get a lot of information about the apocalypse. Melissa and Benson did survive the apocalypse of the Fifth Epoch, and became active legends in the post-apocalyptic era of the Sixth Epoch. At that time, Melissa's eyes were still brown, indicating that the major pollution that changed the fate of the family occurred after these illusions. These life trajectories are completely consistent with Melissa's brief description when she just woke up.

After each illusion, Klein would use divination to determine the authenticity of the past, but all divinations denied Melissa's existence. It seemed that his divination could only use the history of Melissa's non-existence, and could not predict the history of Melissa's existence.

It seemed that everything was developing in a good direction. Their lives should flourish like new buds after rain. They should go down in history and become immortal legends of the Kingdom of Loen, rather than becoming an empty illusion.

Where is the beginning of all distortions, the source of all pollution, and the source of all tragedies?

Melissa's cries resurfaced in Klein's mind, tears of despair and anger streaming down her face. In the pure darkness, she raised her gun at the man under the light of the lamp.

【Is Shezil】

Liar, scoundrel, thief...

In the illusion, Melissa had a wonderful time with this Yis, and she had also tearfully accused him of his bad behavior. At least it can be believed that Yis must have had impure motives when he approached Melissa. It is very likely that he approached Melissa for some corrupt and evil purpose. The so-called encounter and coincidence were nothing more than a script carefully designed by Yis for Melissa, just like the theater troupe in No Man's Town designed a series of lies for Kano for some twisted art. Even the personality of "Yis Xizil" may just be a disguise of a high-level Beyonder.

So, when Melissa uncovered the truth behind all the sweetness, she called out that name sadly and resolutely.

This might be the true identity of "Is. Shezel", but Klein couldn't hear that name at the time. He didn't know what happened afterwards, but the final result was that starting with Melissa and Benson, the descendants of the Moretti family suffered serious foreign contamination, and this liar still wrote the family tree under the name "Is. Moretti".

So, is that scheming Is Shizil the source of all the disasters and pollution that have brought Melissa to life?

Klein lowered his head and looked at the sentences he had written, only to find that he had actually written down so many thoughts, filling up several pages.

The dead black handwriting was extremely messy. The Roselle words gradually turned into a mixture of Roselle and Loenese. Even some ancient Hermes words flowed out of the gray mist pen without him noticing.

Klein was lost in thought and had no idea what he was writing. Now that he had come to his senses and was reading it again, he actually felt cold sweat for the first time in a long time.

"Melissa has been contaminated by an unknown source." "I have been contaminated by madness and contamination."

"Pollution distorts Melissa's existence." "Madness affects my thinking."

"Melissa's will was distorted by the pollution." "Melissa still maintained her self-awareness amid the pollution."

"Melissa is a carefully designed false illusion." "Melissa is a real ghost wandering outside of reality."

"Melissa's information has been tainted and tampered with." "Melissa's information is true and correct."

“Melissa is pulling me into nothingness.” “Melissa is bringing me back to reality.”

"Melissa is fake." "Melissa is real."

Should I trust Melissa?
