Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 1275 "God's Choice"

In Backlund at dusk, Klein walked through the crowded church square and sat on a bench next to the fountain. He casually took out a handful of grain from the mist of history and fed the pigeons that had gathered around him.

While relaxing himself with this behavior, he was thinking about who he should "invite" into Angel's dream.

There is no doubt that the goddess who possesses the authority over dreams is the top priority, and He has also agreed to help, provided that other candidates are found.

And He provided four talismans, which meant that in addition to Klein, three companions had to be selected.

"Angel Gray is definitely one of them. She was the one who caused this incident. She has Angel's memories and has entered my dreams to wake me up from my sleep in the future. She has a lot of experience..."

Klein muttered silently and locked on a candidate.

Then, names of people who have certain strength and close relationship with Angel, such as Mr. Azik, Elaine, Annie, etc., and even Melissa, Lily and other options popped up in his mind.

Of course, ordinary people are not suitable for entering dangerous dreams, and Klein suspects that even angels like Azik and Annie would be easily harmed if they rashly enter a dream interfered by the negative aspect of the source owner and the original creator.

He couldn't ask other gods for help... He moved the corners of his mouth and sprinkled a lot of fake wheat grains. He watched the pigeons jumping happily at his feet, then he stood up and walked through the crowd, disappearing quietly.

Soon, he appeared in a single-family house with a lawn and fountain in the Hillston area.

Mr. and Mrs. Allen Cress were enjoying a sumptuous dinner at the table, with several servants serving them. Their child, Will Cress, who was less than two years old, was sitting alone in a raised chair with some easily digestible food and a small ice cream with jam in front of him.

A dedicated maid was carefully scooping a piece of ice cream with a spoon and putting it to the little master's mouth. The latter smiled, opened his mouth and bit the spoon, but there was no familiar cool feeling and sweet taste in his mouth.

This made Him stunned at first, and then He raised His head and burst into tears.

But the sharp cry did not reach the ears of the maid and parents who were nearby, and Klein, who came to Will's side at some point, did not attract their attention.

With a sniffle, the Snake of Fate, which had been crying with snot, stopped crying. Its face wrinkled into a ball. It looked at Klein and said:
"I'd like to congratulate you on successfully solving the problem of the 'Original Witch', but what does this have to do with the ice cream I'm already eating?"

Klein replied with a serious expression:
"Eating too much sweets is bad for your teeth and stomach."

"You can just steal the sugar and temperature and keep its taste." Will curled his chin and muttered, "You want to help me contain the 'Dice of Probability'? Unfortunately, the opportunity has not come yet."

In fact, I haven't considered this at all. I have to wait until I have accepted the uniqueness of The Fool, or even become a true God, before I can have the ability to influence fate... Klein was ashamed. Not to mention helping this archangel accept the uniqueness of the Wheel of Fortune, he came in such a hurry that he didn't even prepare ice cream as a gift. Instead, he stole the piece that the other party had already put in his mouth.

It seems that Amon's love of stealing is not just a matter of character... He thought for a moment, then shook his head and said:
“I don’t have the ability to do this for now unless I complete the most important thing right now.

"I came here to thank you for giving Angel good luck in advance in the battle against the 'Original Witch'."

Will shifted in his high-backed chair and said:

"Although I don't want to admit it, it's not just my strength. The big snake also gave me a lot of help. This also represents the kindness of the 'True Creator'."

In fact, it also includes Adam... But before the war, Angel and I didn't expect that such luck would eventually be used to directly accommodate the "Doomsday" feature and advance to Sequence 50 with a 1% chance of failure... Klein added in his mind and nodded:

"He and his brother Amon have become one. The ancient sun god has revived in their bodies. Next, you have to be careful of Ouroboros who has his help."

He does not mention that Adam has always been equal to the ancient sun god, because this would not affect the dilemma facing Will Criss.

But this child, who looked less than two years old and still had some excess fat on his limbs and face, did not appear overly depressed. Instead, he said calmly:
"Even so, it would take another opportunity for Him to contain the uniqueness and become the 'Wheel of Fortune'. Besides, I have accumulated much luck that is not much less than Him. If He came directly to Backlund, He would most likely be blocked by your goddess."

In this way... Klein breathed a sigh of relief and continued:

"About another matter..."

He briefly told the archangel who had helped the two of them many times about the situation Angel was facing, and then asked:
"Do you have any good suggestions on who to choose to enter the dream?"

He actually intended to let this Sequence 1 of the Path of Destiny enter his dream to provide help. His luck and his analysis and insight into fate might have a special effect.

But Will just shook his head and said:

"You don't have to count on me. Even if I'm an angel, I'm just a child who can't move freely after entering this special dream. Besides... I think your candidate should have some of the same qualities as Angel Granger."

Klein was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized:
“Is this the guidance of fate?”

"That's it."

Will shook his head, looking away from Klein and towards the half-melted jam ice cream. Klein smiled, patted his head, and said:
"Enjoy your dinner. I won't steal it again."

Then, he looked around, his eyes stayed on Dr. Allen for a moment, and his figure instantly "teleported" away.

At Will's suggestion, he immediately thought of someone who had "something in common" with Angel.

Or in other words, God’s chosen one.

----

West Balam, Devis, the southernmost gold mining city in Matanibun.

Russell Gustav was dressed in formal attire, just like the Intis gentleman that could be seen everywhere in the colonies. His slightly curly chestnut hair and blue-black eyes were exactly the same as those in the portraits that were still circulating in the world, but he looked very blurry to other passers-by, making people subconsciously think of another unrelated face.

If there was no such "distortion", the "Black Emperor" who came directly to the reality with his body would cause the city to be completely destroyed in an instant due to the destruction of wrong order and rules even if he did nothing.

But even if his power was restrained and his face was blurred, his attire, which was clearly that of an Intis person, would still make the dark-brown locals look away in fear and avoid him from a distance.

"After the war ended last year, Intis promised to gradually withdraw from most colonies and stop interfering in the politics and beliefs of the locals. However, I'm afraid it will take a whole generation to eliminate the humility engraved in their hearts."

Next to Him was Bernadette Gustave, who was wearing a wide-brimmed hat and a loose and comfortable beige dress. Their similar hair color and eyes made it easy to recognize them as a father and daughter. Of course, the locals would lower their heads and dare not look directly at this young and beautiful lady.

Hearing his daughter's words, Russell stood on the street where coffin carriages kept passing by, looking out at the gold mine outside the city that had been hollowed out and was in a mess. He sighed and said:

"At that time, I had been unknowingly contaminated, and my behavior gradually became radical and extreme. I even disregarded my previous morality and conscience, and established an empire and colonized foreign countries just to plunder slaves and resources...

“When I saw the situation in the southern continent, I realized that it was so similar to the history I had learned from my memory…

"But I didn't have such an idea at the time. I just kept working hard for a goal I set in my heart and regarded it as everything in my life..."

Bernadette listened quietly to her father's chattering, her expression calm and indifferent.

She had already determined from Mr. Fool's interpretation of the diary that her father was from another world, but this was not important.

It's enough for him to come back.

Of course, there are still many things to do in the future. Will the "Black Emperor" of Intis and the other two gods have conflicts over faith, territory and etiquette? Will the "Eternal Sun" Church, which led the assassination of his father, oppose his return? Bonova is an angel of the "Steam Church". Will he feel embarrassed because of the conflict between family affection and faith?
Just as Bernadette was thinking about these questions, thick gray fog suddenly appeared in front of her, followed by a low voice.

In the God-forsaken land, on the top of the continuous mountain range, a huge, blood-stained cross can be vaguely seen.

There was a figure hanging upside down nailed on it, His whole body shrouded in blurry shadows. Ancient wooden stakes pierced His body and nailed it to the cross. Blood kept oozing out from the penetration points, but no blood dripped onto the ground.

Sitting under the cross was a man wearing a linen robe, with waist-length silver hair and a gentle expression. He faced the cross, closed his eyes devoutly, and prayed.

Suddenly, a curtain of shadow appeared at the base of the cross, and the faint sound of illusory tides echoed inside.

A middle-aged man with blond hair and a golden beard and a warm expression walked out slowly.

The "Angel of Destiny" Ouroboros opened his eyes and looked at the "Angel of Imagination" who had been fighting against his master for more than two thousand years. He lowered his head, drew an inverted cross on his chest, and said calmly:
"My lord."

Adam nodded and said as if he was instructing his butler:
"I'm going out."

This humane performance made Ouroboros close his eyes again. He opened them a moment later, only to find that the figure had disappeared into the shadows.

----

At the barrier node between the God-Forsaken Land and the Sonia Sea, on the seaside platform of the "Giant King's Court" that is always in dusk, several figures appeared one after another.

Klein was somewhat surprised when he saw the blurry figure of the stylishly dressed Roselle Gustav and the cloned Grisha Adam.

He didn't expect that both of the "chosen ones" responded to him.
