Build an ancient-level power in the nightmare world

Having gained experience from his first astrological reading, Chris's movements became much smoother this time.

But this time he did not continue to try to divine the cause of his headache.

Instead, they wanted to use astrology to find out the true identity of that mysterious figure.

Chris knew all too well that in the realm of the occult, there was never any such thing as chance.

Since he saw that mysterious figure during the last astrological reading, it means that the other person must be related to his experiences over the past year.

By following this lead, he might have the opportunity to obtain more useful information.

Soon, Chris arrived at the final step of the astrological process.

This time, he carefully placed his right hand on the last unrevealed star card.

I began to silently pray, "The stars will give me a sign."

Unlike last time.

This time, Chris could clearly feel his spirituality rapidly flowing to his right hand.

His spiritual vision can open at any time.

But this time, Chris is in control of his condition.

If he restrains himself from activating his clairvoyance, he won't be passively activating it like he did during his first astrological reading.

But if I don't activate my spiritual vision, will I miss something important?

After a quick thought, Chris decided to activate his spiritual vision.

next moment.

His vision, which was originally blurry, suddenly became distorted in his slightly closed eyes.

Layers of colorful light appeared before his eyes, then quickly disappeared.

A slight feeling of weightlessness came over me.

Chris felt a pang of anxiety, even though he felt he could interrupt the process at any time.

But he ultimately did not do so.

Soon, the colors around us disappeared.

High up in the tower, Chris's figure became blurry and transparent, as if he might disappear at any moment.

The thin yellow mist around us suddenly condensed spontaneously into a clear, huge hexagonal yellow mark.

Yellow Seal and Chris's transparent figures overlapped.

Chris's figure became clear again, but his translucent body still retained the final pose from the astrological interpretation.

……

That feeling of being pulled by gravity returned.

Chris slowly opened his slightly closed eyes.

What came into his view was an exquisite brown desk.

On it were placed a silver candlestick, a quill pen, an ink bottle, a magnifying glass, rolled-up white papers, and several books with blank covers, in black and dark red.

There was also a revolver on the corner of the table.

His gaze lingered on the revolver for a moment.

This was the first time he had ever seen firearms in this world.

Guns are prohibited in the Im Empire, and ordinary people are not entitled to obtain firearms.

Moreover, the revolver in front of us is engraved with various exquisite patterns.

So Chris couldn't help but take a few more glances.

At this moment, he also saw clearly where he was: a study with simple yet exquisite decoration.

This gothic style of interior design is very popular in this era, but it actually has little to do with ordinary people.

This decorating style requires extra time and effort for every detail, making it completely impractical.

For ordinary people, it's a complete waste of money.

Chris wasn't particularly surprised to find himself in an unfamiliar place.

This strange state reminded him of the feeling he had during his lucid dream last time.

After his lucid dream ended, he experienced a brief period of darkness before being guided by the Star Key to that mysterious space.

This time, however, the process may have been reversed.

He must have entered a world similar to lucid dreaming from that mysterious space.

All of this was caused by the final step of that astrological ritual.

Chris couldn't help but start thinking about the relationship between astrology, the observatory, and this lucid dream world.

In the final astrological step, his silent recitation of "The stars will give me a sign" may be the reason he appeared in this lucid dream world.

Perhaps this dream was a harbinger from the stars.

Perhaps he can find information about that mysterious figure in this dream.

However, his current state is somewhat strange.

Chris also noticed that he did not have a physical form at the moment.

He was like a ghost, unable to feel the existence of his own body.

He didn't feel his legs as he moved.

Instead, it simply floated around the room.

There was a full-length mirror in one corner of the study. Chris moved to the mirror, and it didn't reflect anything other than the normal things in the room.

It seems that this lucid dream is different from the last one.

He quickly accepted this premise.

But without a body, many things become inconvenient to do.

For example, he was quite interested in the books on the table.

Through these books, he might be able to deduce the profession of the owner of this study.

Chris had been eyeing that revolver for a long time.

I've been wanting to pick it up and play with it for a while.

Unfortunately, he has no hands and cannot do these things.

Chris floated to the window and glanced at the sky.

He discovered that a very thin black slit was slowly taking shape.

The gap had not yet opened, but instead spread towards both sides of the sky.

Judging from the appearance, this must be some kind of lucid dream world.

Chris floated in the room for a while longer, taking in everything he could see.

He encountered a problem as he tried to get through the closed door.

Although he is currently in ghost form, he cannot pass through walls.

Chris couldn't quite accept this premise.

Unable to explore freely, unable to touch the objects in the dream, he became like this, only able to be a spectator in this dream without personal freedom?

How can we investigate then?

Just as Chris was anxiously thinking of a solution, a creaking sound suddenly came.

The door was pushed open.

A man wearing a black trench coat and a black top hat strode into the room.

The other person passed right through Chris, who was floating behind the door.

Upon entering, the other person took off their hat without turning around and threw it behind them.

The hat landed steadily on the coat rack next to the door.

After the other person took off the oversized trench coat, they simply folded it and placed it on the edge of the desk.

Chris kept his eyes fixed on the man's face.

This is a middle-aged man with strong features.

With his deep-set eyes, high nose bridge, and defined jawline, Chris figured he must be very popular with women.

His gaze lingered on the other person's trench coat as he carefully examined it.

Considering that the other person was the first person to appear in front of him in this lucid dream, Chris was basically certain that this man was the owner of the figure he had seen from behind.

So the question is, who exactly is the other party?
