The Lord Of The Mysteries

Chapter 151's

Insect chirping and the sound of owls echoed along the way back to the small town. Azik looked ahead and said after a few seconds of silence, "Although I'm not entirely sure what happened to me, I have a rough idea.

"Maybe—maybe I'm someone who has lived very, very long."

Mr. Azik, you should seriously consider whether you still fit the definition of "someone" .. Klein thought to himself, but he did not dare to say it out loud.

"This "wild forest, this silence, often makes one weak…

"I should have paid some sort of price in exchange for this longevity. I've been living since the end of the Fourth Age, like a wandering spirit across the continent.." Azik's voice deepened, as if he was trying to suppress his voice. I've forgotten about the people and things I swore to remember …"

Klein poked the weeds in front of him and said, thinking, "Master Azik, I have a theory about your situation."

"What theory?" Azik looked to the side.

"i think there's a cycle for your memory loss. Maybe you 'die' once every few decades, and your memory of previous events disappears. Then, after some time, you wake up from the darkness of your sleep and begin a new phase of life. In this way, we can explain why you have such diverse dreams. It's an event that you've encountered during some of your lives" Klein explained his theory.

Azik slowed his pace, as if darkness had gripped his sleeve. He looked ahead with a turbid look before saying after a while, "That's consistent with the jolted memory of waking up just now."

The memories that woke up? Klein had an idea as he said immediately, "Master Azik, you might not need to leave Tingen to search for your lost past. You will regain your memories slowly!"

"Why?" Azik looked over in surprise.

Klein smiled and said, "Your interest is not completely gone. The part of your memory that jolted awake earlier was the proof.

"Next, do you remember the moment you woke up in Backlund and found that you had forgotten all about the past?"

Azik nodded. "It was a nightmare that bothered me to this day."

Klein tapped down with his black stick and explained in detail, "Before today, I didn't think that there was a problem with it. But your description just now, along with my own conjecture, made it feel a little strange.You had an identity document and enough money when you woke up from your dream. you also appear in a way that does not surprise anyone. All of that seems to be arranged for you, allowing you to adjust to society with little effort.

"Then, who's in charge?

"There is only one answer; you are from the past!

"Your past regains its memory and knows that you have to usher in a new life. So, he prepared everything for you, tried his best not to let you draw suspicion from others."

Azik stopped walking. He looked at the specks of light coming from the city, once again sneaking into silence.

"Maybe the 'old man' that I've been looking for all this time is my past.." He sighed, admitting that Klein's deduction made a lot of sense.

“So, you don't have to do anything. All you have to do is wait patiently for your memories to come back to you,” Klein closed and comforted Mr. Azik.

Azik subconsciously waved his staff before he was silent, like a statue carved out of marble.

After a long time, he looked into the distance and replied, "Maybe—maybe I will only regain my memories completely when this life is almost over. I want to have plenty of time to understand and free myself from this destiny. So I have to be more proactive in searching for my past, to trigger my memories bit by bit. I have to regain my memories before the time you hypothesized. Waiting will only make me repeat the cycle."

"That's the most desirable choice." Klein did not advise against it. Instead, he asked, "Sir Azik, may I ask for your help in something trivial, in addition to finding the villain who took your son's skull and made my fate inharmonious?"

Azik nodded small.

"What do you need me to do?"

Klein arranged his words and said, "i hope you can go to town between two and five hours drive from Tingen by train next week, or the following week. I want you to cause a paranormal incident, something that won't do any harm. Judging from how you tried to look for criminals using your bloodline connections, I would think that you are quite proficient in the field of dead souls.

"No problem," Azik promised without hesitation. He did not ask Klein why he wanted him to do such a thing.

At the same time, he secretly confirmed Klein's guess about his strength.

"thank you. It's very important to me. Also, you can only choose the followers of Goddess Overnight when you choose a target. Also, don't leave any clues," Klein ordered.

Only through this method could the incident be passed on to Tingen Nighthawks. Only then could he join the team in the mission and suggest using the Closed Artifact 3-0782. Only then would he be able to extract the god blood from the Closed Artifact to make the Sun Spell Flare!

Assuming that the perpetrator who stayed at home with the red chimney had not left Tingen, and that Klein would continue investigating, he should try his best to become stronger!

Yes, according to the information I obtained, stealing a little bit of his power will not damage 3-0782. At most, it would only reduce the amount of time it would take to purify.This is for the safety and stability of Tingen City! Klein inwardly tried to justify his actions.

Azik did not care about his motives. He's nodding.

"i will tell you the name of the city and the approximate time in advance so that you can prepare yourself."

Phew. Klein sighed in relief. He felt that this trip to Lamud City was not a wasted trip.

Although they only managed to peel off the outermost layer of the mystery surrounding Pak Azik and there was still much more to know, at least he managed to gain a friendship with Azik, at least, a reliable ally in his search for the behind-the-scenes offender. !

…

At half-eleven that night, Klein returned to 2 Daffodil Street, hungry and tired.

"Thinking that Mr. Azik didn't buy me dinner. After all he didn't want to enjoy dinner" Klein murmured as he opened the door.

The house was not as dark as he had expected. An elegant gas lamp quietly emitted its light, warmly illuminating the living room. Benson was sitting alone on the sofa with a book, wrapped under a bright "coat.

When he saw the door open, Benson was just about to speak when he yawned. He had no choice but to shut his mouth.

Klein closed the door and smiled, insinuating, "i went to Lamud City with Mr. Azik. There's an abandoned castle with a long history there."

Benson was immediately enlightened as he laughed.

"A moonless night, a castle abandoned for thousands of years, a cold and sinister environment, coupled with a two-man archaeological team."

What happened today can be classified as paranormal. Klein suddenly remembered the strange door that Mr. Azik conjured and the cry of a baby. He said, the lingering fear still gripping him, "It does feel like it's there."

Benson yawned again before closing the book and saying, "i need to sleep. Ever since I started studying and reading classical literature, my sleep quality has been excellent."

Klein laughed to himself, suddenly recalling something that Miss Justice had mentioned. He said, lowering his voice, "Benson, you know that my company has ties to Awwa County Police. I recently heard news from Backlund that the King, the Prime Minister, other ministers, I, and the Members of Parliament are all fed up with inefficient government. They want to push for reform and choose talent to occupy positions in government based on open exams, such as university entrance exams."

Benson was at first confused, then his eyes twinkled as he asked, "Examination open?"

“Yes. During the exam, you can become a civil servant in one of the branches of government. My guess, yes — my guess, the contents of the exam will be modeled after the university entrance exam.: literature, classics, mathematics and logic, as well as a basic understanding of the law…" Klein used this opportunity to enter his opinion. He continued, "Benson, this has to be kept a secret, and don't get too hopeful on this. No one knows if this will be endorsed by the House of Lords and the House of Commons or not."

"i'll remember it. I understand that all I need to do is study hard." Benson smiled, then said, "i will study hard whether this change happens or not. I will try my best to free myself from my current state and find a better job. Learn—that's the biggest difference between human and curly. - haired baboons."

No, research shows that baboons have decent IQ levels, and a certain level of learning ability.

After which, he smiled and rubbed his stomach while walking towards the kitchen.

She finds the leftovers and chicken Benson and Melissa left for her. Klein relaxed as he began to prepare his late dinner.

It was late at night, and most people had already gone to bed. He was the only one still awake, breathing in the cool air with the aroma of the mixture and making a slight movement.

Everything is peaceful and peaceful.

…

After he was full, he washed the dishes and took a bath. Finally, Klein returned to his room and locked the door.

He yawns but stays awake. He took out a silver dagger used for rituals and sealed the room with a wall of spirituality.

He wanted to guess above the gray fog whether calling out "Stupid People who do not belong to this era" was dangerous or not!
