Mystery: When the Fool Meets the Masked Fool

Chapter 218 Amon Crying and Making a Fuss

A place abandoned by God.

The Silver City, once shrouded in darkness and lightning, is now brightly lit.

Tall buildings clustered around the Church of the Fool in the center. This was the current layout of the City of Silver.

Because monsters exist in the darkness, people who stay in the darkness for a long time will be [hidden]. Therefore, the current Silver City maintains 24-hour lighting to ensure that every corner of the city will not fall into complete darkness.

Exploration of the City of Silver is currently divided into two categories: one advocates exploring eastward, towards the Giant King's Court, and the other advocates exploring westward, towards areas of the City of Silver that have been largely unknown.

The wave of westward exploration originated from a simple exploration some time ago.

The trial exploration robot unearthed a relic. According to the test, this relic was from an unknown number of "thousand years" ago. The architectural style of the relic is similar to that of the current Silver City. They also used similar materials such as steel and concrete to build houses, and the shapes of the houses are mostly close to regular and symmetrical geometric figures.

There were also some technological devices that they couldn't understand. It wasn't that they were too backward, but that these devices were completely different from the technology tree of Silver City.

This seems to be a technology line that does not require spirituality, monsters, or extraordinary characteristics.

This discovery caused quite a stir in Silver City, causing Silver City to pay more attention to the direction of going deeper into the west.

They now sent twenty expeditions further west, calling this the "Great Expedition."

…………

Monday, at the Klein household.

The Puppet Master's promotion ceremony requires a mermaid, so Klein plans to go to sea right after the Tarot meeting this afternoon.

Although the Church of Evernight also keeps mermaids in the temple, he is now a defector from the Church of Evernight and a recorded victim of the Night Watchmen.

In order to prevent his pension from being reclaimed by the church, Klein decided to try his luck at sea.

Anyway, with the omnipotent Ceris backing him up, Klein wasn't worried about not being able to find the mermaid at sea.

But before that, there was one thing Klein needed to resolve.

"A fool who does not belong to this era..."

A vague and hazy prayer sounded, and Klein, squatting in the bathroom, tightly clenched the tissue in his hand.

You gotta...

Ever since Klein caught Amon revealing his desire for Sefirah Castle two days ago, Amon had stopped pretending. He prayed for him every now and then, and the length of time he spent praying for him was getting longer and longer.

Like now, they bombard him with messages while he's in the bathroom.

This is definitely not a coincidence, Klein can guarantee it.

Because he wasn't yet a true demigod, Klein had no way of severing the connection between the prayer and himself. He could only endure the headache and the constant harassment from Amon's "letters."

"Faith" means belief.

Ten minutes later, Klein left the bathroom and walked into the living room. What caught his eye was Amon lying on the floor, thrashing about.

A vein suddenly popped up on Klein's forehead.

"Why are you in my house?" Klein glared at Amon and said with gritted teeth.

Amon raised his head, adjusted his monocle, and said to himself, "I want to go to Sefirah Castle."

Klein took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down: "No."

Then, he watched Amon rolling around on the ground, crying and making a fuss in front of him.

"I don't care, I don't care, I don't care. I want to go to Sefirah Castle, I want to go to Sefirah Castle, I want to go to Sefirah Castle!"

"So what are you going to do now?" Serris walked through the wall into Klein's house. "I have a feeling he won't give up until he achieves his goal."

Klein scratched his hair in distress.

"Isn't he ashamed? He doesn't even look like a mythical creature anymore." Klein now knew Amon's identity: a time angel who had embarked on a fateful journey, severed from his original form. He was the son of the ancient sun god, a mythical creature born from the beginning.

"You think shame is a human thing, but don't use human thinking to judge mythical creatures. They are fundamentally different from humans," Serris reminded him. "And as a Worm of Time, it's perfectly normal for them to be on the ground. Worms, you know, understand."

As he was speaking, Amon had already climbed up the wall to the ceiling.

"I have shed blood for the Fool, I have been wounded for Sefirah Castle. I want to go to Sefirah Castle! I want to go to Sefirah Castle! I want to go to Sefirah Castle!"

He was talking about how when Klein was unconscious, a normal Amon wanted to secretly take Klein away, but was stopped by Happy Amon.

In response, the two Amons had a quiet fight in the Church of Mercy.

"I have a feeling he'll disrupt your meeting." Cerus looked up at Amon, who was hanging upside down from the ceiling, crying and making a fuss. "Also, his concept of time is different from yours. Who knows, he might make such a fuss for a hundred years."

Klein asked with some concern, "If I really send it up to him, will he take the opportunity to steal Sefirah Castle?"

Serris had already told him some common sense about Sefirah Castle.

This is something related to the three paths of fortune teller, thief, and apprentice, and is a necessary tool to reach the level beyond the true God.

"Hmm... hard to say." Serris was also thinking about this matter. "Theoretically, he wouldn't do that. After all, he is too similar to Tianzun. After seizing Sefirah Castle, it would be easy for Tianzun to awaken within his body."

"But as I said before, mythical creatures are essentially two different species from humans. It's hard for us to judge what's going on in their minds."

"But at least, he won't attack Sefirah Castle until you become a Sequence Three Ancient Scholar and have a deeper connection with Sefirah Castle," said Serris.

"Then do you think I should put him up there?" Klein gave the choice to Serris. He trusted Serris's judgment.

"Forget it. If it's just like this now, it's still okay. I have enough confidence to suppress Amon. But if you really let him go, even I think it would be difficult to snatch Sefirah Castle back from him."

Klein took out his pocket watch and glanced at it. There were less than twenty minutes left before the party started. It was obvious that Amon had come just in time to cause trouble.

"The time is almost up. Could you please take him away?" Klein asked Serris for help.

"Yeah, no problem." Serris nodded and walked forward to take out a jar.

There are three Chinese characters clearly written on it.

Insecticide.

He opened the lid and shook it vigorously. Then, he raised his hand and sprayed it at Amon.

Following a series of popping sounds, Amon fell from the ceiling.

He fell to the ground with a thud, his back facing downwards, his limbs slightly curled up, and his right leg twitching from time to time.

"Is he a cockroach?" Looking at Amon's expression, Padomeow asked.

"That shouldn't be the case..." Klein, who had seen the Time Worm's true form, remained skeptical.

"How should I put it?" Cerus picked Amon up from the ground. "Amon, this creature really does look like a cockroach. It's everywhere."

Saying this, Ceris pointed to Klein's sofa and said, "For example, that one."

After saying that, Ceres picked up Amon and turned to leave.

Klein followed Serris's finger and saw two long, thin tentacles-like things extending from the gap in the sofa.

Klein's expression suddenly turned a little ugly.

He hates cockroaches. Although he's not afraid of them, they do disgust him.

"Wow, classic Cantonese twintails." Paduo Miao jumped onto the sofa and observed the still trembling tentacles closely.

"Actually, this might not be a cockroach." Padomeow circled the tentacles twice and said thoughtfully, "Let's pull it out and see. What if it's Lu Bu?"
