After thanking โHer,โ Klein immediately gave up his control over Hvin Rambis, making it impossible for him to maintain his marionette-like state .
With that, this Spectator pathway demigod collapsed to the ground and became a corpse .
Arianna lowered her head and took a look, the darkness in her eyes growing deeper .
Hvin Rambisโs corpse immediately got erased like a pencil drawing as if it was being wiped away by an eraser, inch by inch, leaving behind only the ice-blue metal cylinder .
Right on the heels of that, beams of light seeped out of the void and quickly gathered together, forming a strange object .
It was fist-sized and looked like a heart . However, it resembled a different kind of brain with its surface being covered in grayish-white wrinkles, each crevice with countless symbols and strange patterns that extended into the surroundings . These connected to a world that Beyonders of other pathways couldnโt see .
This was the Beyonder characteristic left behind by a Manipulator .
Miss Ariannaโs concealment and reversing concealment process is able to quickly extract Hvin Rambisโs Beyonder characteristicโฆ Klein came to a realization after a moment of pause .
At this moment, Arianna calmly said, โThe mental imprints in it have all been removed . โ
โThank you, Maโam Arianna . โ Not surprised at all, he bowed as if he had prepared to do so .
He had decisively given up on his marionette because he foresaw that something like this would happen .
In fact, his original plan was to bring Hvin Rambis above the gray fog as a marionette, allowing him to use Unshadowed Crucifix to purge the Manipulator, Dreamwalker, Hypnotist, and other Beyonder characteristics out . This way, Miss Justice no longer needed to worry about the ingredients needed before becoming a demigod, even her Beyonder dog at home had a chance of advancing . After all, Audrey had briefly mentioned in the past to Dwayne Dantes that her act of escaping from Hvin Rambisโs control was all thanks to Susie .
But later on, he considered that there was no way he could bring Hvin Rambis above the gray fog inside this world of concealment, as it would directly expose the fact that he was The Fool under Ariannaโs watchful eyes . And once he left, no matter where he teleported to, there was a chance of being discovered by Adam because of Hvin Rambisโs existence .
In that case, giving up a marionette in front of Arianna was undoubtedly a better choice . At least, this angel had a high chance of helping him remove the mental imprint on the Beyonder characteristic .
And none of these affected Kleinโs original plan . He could easily find some ingredients to make Hvin Lanbiโs Beyonder characteristic into a problematic potion . He would then pour it onto an ordinary item so that it could absorb the potion and transform .
After obtaining such a Sealed Artifact and binding it with the Unshadowed Crucifix, he could obtain the corresponding Beyonder characteristics by keeping track of the time .

As for the mental corruption during this process, there was no need for concern . The Unshadowed Crucifix could also cleanse it!
Klein picked up Hvin Rambisโs Beyonder characteristic, but he wasnโt able to stuff it into the iron cigar case . He could only stuff it into his pocket . As for Arianna, โSheโ cast her gaze towards the ice-blue metal cylinder and said in an unhurried voice, โItโs from the cosmos, so itโs best you donโt use it . Even you carrying it with you should be limited . Otherwise, a gaze might be cast onto you, causing you to be corrupted and suffer aberrations . โ
โFrom the cosmos?โ Klein found the description familiar .
Soon, he remembered the origins of its familiarity:
This originated from the the โYellow lightโ Venithanโs prophecy of the apocalypse in โSights in the Spirit Worldโ from the Abraham family:
โCasting oneโs gaze from the cosmos, the lands shatter . Everything in the world will cease to exist . โ
The apocalypseโฆ The origins of this Sealed Artifact is related to the apocalypse? What does the cosmos represent? What does it have to do with the astral world? A series of questions formed in his mind, making his expression turn heavy .
Faced with his question, Arianna nodded gently and said, โYes, the cosmos . โ
โIs it the cosmos above our heads?โ he pointed at the dark night sky which was embedded with the gigantic crimson moon .
โYes . โ Arianna gave an affirmative answer, but she didnโt explain further .
After some thought, he asked again, โThere are many hostile existences that are attempting to destroy this world?โ Ariannaโs gaze swept across his face and finally stopped at his eyes .
โI canโt give you an answer .
There are some things that make it easier to be โinfectedโ the more you know . Both your body and soul will be infected . Once you become an angel, you can seek out the exact answer . โ
The more I know, the easier it is to get โinfectedโโฆ A chill ran down Kleinโs back .
He didnโt ask Arrodes earlier about the Sealed Artifacts that Hvin Rambis possessed, because he was afraid that Adam would notice them if they left any traces behind .
When facing a King of Angels, no amount of caution was enough!

Seeing that Arianna wasnโt revealing anything else, Klein pointed at the ice-blue metal cylinder and asked, โHow should we handle this item?โ
The description of the ascetic leader made him a little afraid of bringing the Sealed Artifact above the gray fog to โdisinfect . โ
Arianna calmly said, โMy suggestion is to sacrifice it to the Goddess . Together with the contributions you have previously rendered, you can exchange them for what you want . โ
Klein nodded slightly .
โI understand . โ
After expressing his gratitude, Ariannaโs figure was quickly erased and disappeared into the dark garden under the abnormally huge moon .
And with that, the world of concealment collapsed .
Klein observed for a few seconds before taking out candles and other ritual items he carried with him . He quickly set up an altar and sacrificed the ice-blue metal cylinder to the Evernight Goddess .
At the end of the ritual, amidst the howling winds, the burning ash of the herbs and the surrounding soil rose up and landed onto an empty spot on the altar .
The ash and soil were connected, forming words:
โSequence 3: Scholar of Yore;
โMain ingredients: Hound of Fulgrim (also known as Sefirah Castle Keeper) pair of eyes . One Demonic Wolf of Fogโs transformed heart;
โSupplementary ingredients: 100ml of Hound of Fulgrim blood, 30 grams of White Frost Crystal of Demonic Wolf of Fog, a large amount of real ancient historical recordsโฆ
โAdvancement ritual: Be separated from reality for at least three hundred years and consume the potion after one becomes history and doesnโt belong to the present era . โ
Thisโฆ Klein couldnโt help but blink, wondering if he had seen the wrong description .
The description of not belonging to the present era made him think of a line in his honorific name:

โThe Fool that doesnโt belong to this era!โ
Iโve been hanging above the extraordinary door of light for more than three hundred yearsโฆ In a sense, have I already completed the ritual and am only waiting to consume the potion? The mysterious space above the gray fog really has a very close relationship with the Seer pathwayโฆ Could it be the manifestation of the Uniqueness? Klein was momentarily delighted but also grim . This was because he didnโt know if a price was exacted for such a bestowment .
Phew, I really want to jump to a neighboring pathway after becoming an angel to not follow whatever path was planned for meโฆ For other Bizarro Sorcerers, the hardest part about the advancement ritual is to live for more than three hundred years . After all, this isnโt a pathway thatโs known for having a long lifespanโฆ Also, being separated from reality for three hundred years easily drives one mad . For Bizarro Sorcerers who are in a dissociative state, the risk of madness and losing control is quite significantโฆ Klein looked at the Scholar of Yoreโs potion formula as thoughts couldnโt help but flash through his mind .
After an unknown amount of time, he ended the ritual and put away the corresponding items .
As he walked out of the garden, the gigantic crimson moon and the pitch-black darkness faded away, disappearing inch by inch .
Then, he saw fresh autumn flowers and the sunlight shining above them . He also saw a blonde girl waiting in between the house and the garden .
Audreyโs eyes wore an elated look as the corners of her lips curled up unconsciously .
Klein nodded at her before his figure was enveloped by scarlet flames .
Elsewhere in the garden, there was another flame soaring in the air, but it wasnโt obvious .
When the flames dissipated, Gehrman Sparrow was gone . The remnants of the crimson moon and the night scenery vanished completely .
Audrey fell into a daze for a few seconds before thoughtfully looking away and entering Viscount Glaintโs residence .
After she left in a carriage with Susie and the servants, she returned home and had a chance to be alone . As expected, she received The Worldโs invitation for a โmeeting . โ
Above the gray fog, inside the palace .
Audrey looked at The World Gehrman Sparrow and calmly asked, โWhat was Hvin Rambisโs true goal?โ
She had long known from Gehrman Sparrowโs calm composure that Hvin Rambis had been finished off .
Klein answered frankly, โThe first is to find out if thereโs a mastermind behind Xio and Forsโs actions . Secondly, when the princes express their goodwill towards Earl Hallโs family, the cue was for you to not be an obstacle . In essence, itโs to create a fracture between the three major Churches . โ
With regards to this matter, Audrey had already discussed it with Mr . World before . There was no need to seek further explanations as she asked, โThen why was a demigod like Hvin Rambis personally visiting me?โ
Klein smiled and said, โIf you wish to deceive the guards arranged by Earl Hall, as well as hypnotize a Hypnotist with great certainty without causing any commotion, a Sequence 5 might not be capable of doing so; therefore, itโs best to send a demigod . Furthermore, you knew Hvin Rambis and had interactions with him before, so your vigilance against him would be minimized .
โTo be honest, if you werenโt careful enough and had an unnoticeable helper like Susie, the whole matter wouldโve gone on smoothly without you and I knowing until Monday . โ
Justice Audrey didnโt wear a thick mask . She smiled and sighed with mixed emotions .
โSo Iโm already this powerfulโฆโ
Powerful to the point of needing a demigod to be certain of success .
โHe was even more powerful than I had imagined . You actually hypnotized a demigod, a demigod thatโs good at hypnotism,โ Klein praised with a smile .
Audrey pursed her lips without realizing it and smiled .
โThatโs mainly because of the Fate Siphon charm you gave me . Uh, my Hypnotist potion seems to have completely digested as a result of thisโฆโ
