The Lord Of The Mysteries

The Chapter 374

Lawrence sat in the coffee shop booth, unable to resist thinking about the Abrahamic family's hardships for years.

Ever since they split up into smaller families and settled elsewhere, the Elder Council's control over family members reached a low point. A large number of Abraham refused to go forward, in order to avoid the effects of the curse; hence, many of them remained in Order 8 or 9. Some do not even strive to be Beyonders, hoping to become a commoner with a certain amount of knowledge to lead a quiet and peaceful life.

The council of elders believed that this was an act of forgetting the honor of the family, but it should not be rude to such an act because it was tantamount to self-destruction.

In such a situation, the upper echelons of the Abrahamic family began to think of introducing changes. They imitate the master-apprentice inheritance system of the Life School of Thought, and they train non-family members, hoping that once they progress to High-Sorting Extremes, then they will, in turn, be able to, can help the Abrahamic family deal with a curse that has existed for about 1,500 years and find their ancestor, Bethel Abraham, who has disappeared in the War of the Four Emperors.

The plan began smoothly, and the disciples who did not need to worry about the curse quickly became stronger under the careful care of the Abrahamic family. Within a short period of ten years, there were a few powerful Order 5 individuals among them, while not a single person among the direct descendants of the Abrahamic family was Order 6.

The trunk was too weak, but the branches were too strong; hence, the seeds of tragedy were planted, and ambitious disciples began to set their sights on the powerful Closed Artifacts that the Abrahamic family had.

Their plot failed, but also resulted in serious repercussions. All the non-family members in Sequences 6 and 5 argue that their position in the Abrahamic family is incompatible with their own power and that they cannot be trusted, preventing them from possessing certain Sealed Artifacts.

In the process of going back and forth, with difficult negotiations occurring and compromises between the two sides, an accident occurred. One of them, the Botis Traveler, is lured by the True Creator to join the Order of Aurora, leading to a terrible disaster.

In this disaster, Abraham's upper echelon was almost completely destroyed. Over half of the several powerful Closed Artifacts were lost, and only three remained. As a result, Lawrence's brother, who had the same mother as him, Richard, died.

Not only did Botis benefit greatly from it, but he also gathered all the Beyonder ingredients he needed, and with the help of a True Creator, he managed to overcome the danger and become a demigod, a half-god, being one of the five Saints of the Order of Aurora, the Mystery Saint.

After the disaster, Abraham's rebuilt Council of elders reflected on the actions of the past few years, but they were unable to find a solution to the problem. Emotions such as negativity, sadness, and despair enveloped the hearts of the few remaining family members.

Lawrence did not want to be placed in such an environment or face complaints and repressed emotions on a daily basis. He finds an excuse to leave the Council of elders and comes to Backlund to look for his other brother, Laubero, who has the same mother, and Sam, who does not have the same mother.

But now, he suddenly realized that he was the only one left of his father's line.

She was already almost eighty years old, and all her children had died in the disaster caused by Botis.

Just remembering the past made him feel sadness from the bottom of his heart.

The most painful thing was that he could not see any hope for revenge, and he could not see the dawn of his clan's glory appear once again.

I'm very old, and I've been hurt before. Unless absolutely necessary, I will not dare to use my Beyonder power again, which will cause me to lose control or even cause the curse to descend? Lawrence took a sip of Fermo's coffee and was silent for a long time.

…

After returning to his rented house, Fors immediately entered the bedroom and locked the wooden door behind him.

He sat on the edge of the bed, calming his mind, and whispering the name of honor that represented hope and the future.

"Stupid people who don't belong to this era,

"You are the mysterious ruler above the gray fog;

"You are the King of Yellow and Black who has good luck.

"i want to tell you about what I met today.

"i met the older sister of the old woman's husband who made me an Internship. He seems to be a member of a certain family …

"i didn't mention anything related to mysticism, but I'm afraid he has very strong divination abilities and will be able to find the complete truth …"

…

At this moment, Klein happened to be above the gray fog.

He saw the deep red star representing The Magician widen outward, rippling as he heard layers of pleas.

After knowing the details, Klein tapped on the edge of the ancient table and said to himself inwardly, How careful it is for him to know to seek help from the Fool.

Besides, your guess is not wrong. Order 7 that is suitable for Internship is a Forecaster…

I have to say, with the Book of Secrets and my progress to Sequence 7, I became more and more godlike when I was above the gray fog. Of course, for now, I'm still just an empty shell …

Speaking of which, I have acted in front of Miss Justice and Mr. Hanged Man several times, fooling them completely. Why don't I receive feedback from my spirituality? The speed at which I digested the potion didn't seem to become any faster as a result. Does it have to happen in the real world? Yes, it's possible that their "applause" as spectators has been blocked by the gray fog, preventing them from directly affecting me. Just like how the Eternal Blazing Sun and True Creator were unable to pierce through the gray fog to find this mysterious space…

From the looks of it, the reaction between this gray fog and mysterious space was extremely mechanical. It wasn't quite alive, and it didn't have intelligence…

In the middle of his mind, Klein turned his knowledge into an ancient piece of goat skin and threw it at the deep red star that symbolized The Magician.

A boundless grayish-white mist suddenly filled the air before Fors' eyes, and an illusionary yellowish-brown goat skin descended from the sky.

When he saw the information written there, he suddenly felt at peace.

With the Foolish Master, Master Lawrence would definitely not be able to obtain true revelation through divination! Fors sincerely expressed his gratitude and was busy preparing for the ritual.

He has seen many instances where evil spirits hurt others. In fact, she doesn't trust The Fool too much, but the curse of the full moon forces her to rely on him.

Regardless of how bad the consequences are, I will lose my life. Without Mr.'s help. Fool, I've lost control over the last Blood Moon and become a monster. Every day I live is a day earned. This was all given to me by the Foolish Master, and he could take it back at any time. Well, he better not. Fors took a breath and lit two candles that symbolized the Fool.

The initial steps of the ritual were no different from the ones he had mastered before. This continues until the candle is lit and essential oils, extracts, and herbal powders are thrown into the fire.

When a calm fragrance of subtlety filled the room, a faint mist of illusion covered the entire altar. According to the contents of the goat skin, Fors quickly adjusted his body and mind, entered Cogitation and shouted the appropriate name of The Fool over and over again.

Such monotonous and repetitive behavior allowed the originally calm and relaxed Fors to slowly enter a state where the mind was sound asleep while its spirituality was dissolved. His entire body felt groggy, but he maintained a strange clear feeling. He felt as if his spirit was hovering, constantly moving upwards.

It is similar to the process of "secret acts" formed with the help of external objects, but differs in many ways. It is a technique in medium and is used to communicate with higher level spirits. At the extreme, it could even allow the Beyonder to travel the spirit world under the pretext of maintaining a special clarity.

Some Beyonder who specialize in influencing the mind call it "walking in artificial sleep". They could use techniques like hypnosis to get ordinary people into this state as well.

That way, ordinary people would appear to be sound asleep, yet they would be able to answer questions. Although their eyes and mouth were closed, they could detect the existence of various Spirit Bodies around them; thus, completing a certain level of communication.

The reason why Klein did not let Fors use the secret deeds ritual was because it could only impart knowledge or immediate effects such as purification or corruption, letting the target's mind gain an overwhelming experience. It cannot interfere with the prophecy or other things done by others.

Simply put, the secret deeds ritual directly affected the target's Spirit Body, Astral Projection, Heart and Mind Body, and Ether Body. The associated positive or negative states had been eliminated, and with the ritual of sleeping while walking artificially, it allowed Klein to do something indirect to deal with outside distractions.

In a daze, Fors felt himself drifting back to the grand old palace above the gray mist, and he saw the Foolish Master sitting high above, looking down at everything.

Klein looked at the image of The Magician projected by the light of a deep red star. He unhurriedly picked up the paper statue he had found earlier from his pile of trash in the corner.

As an Astrologer who had advanced twice, she had many ways to interfere with the predictions of others, so she did not need to rely on mystical items to help her.

At this moment, due to the effects of the ritual, the mysterious space above the gray fog started to tremble slightly, and some power flowed due to the disturbance.

Klein's left hand pressed the Dark Emperor's card on the surface of the long bronze table, connecting it with his own Spirit Body and elevating himself to a higher level. It raised its level just like when he used the Flaring Sun Charm and the Azik copper whistle to strengthen his Spirit Body.

Then, with a flick of his right wrist, he threw the paper statue out.

The paper statue suddenly enlarged, and on its back, twelve pairs of black angel wings cut from the paper grew. The feathers are alive and alive.

The paper "angel" penetrates the dark red light and overlaps with the illusory figure of The Magician.

Without any warning, it started burning and completely disappeared.

The half-awake Fors seemed to see a dignified and majestic angel as it wrapped layer upon layer of pitch-black wings around him!

After an unknown period of time, Fors suddenly awoke from his sleepwalking condition. In front of him were only three candles that lit up quietly above the altar and a mist that enveloped the entire room. At the tip of his nose was a calm and familiar scent of etherealness.

Fors was so immersed in his thoughts that for a moment he forgot to end his ritual.
