This is Klein's voice.

A chill instantly rushed from the soles of Benson's feet to his brain. The world around him seemed to be far away, and the fire was dim.

The flame of the ointment candle with the smell of sea water flickered, making the brightness of the room fluctuate accordingly.They were clearly not extinguished in the cathedral's never-ending draft, but now they felt like they were on the verge of collapse.

Benson's senses seemed to be blurred suddenly. He couldn't hear or see clearly, and felt extremely bewildered.

"I……"

Benson flinched, he was stuck, and he had forgotten all the content of the honorable name that he had already mastered by heart dozens of times.

He first turned his head and glanced at the punisher next to him. If Benson really understood the horror of the gods, then he would never dare to make such a move at this time—but he didn't know anything, so he behaved Some bold.

But the performance of the Punisher disappointed Benson, who didn't seem to notice the change.

Benson didn't dare to ask.

As an ordinary person who has no relationship with the mysterious world, he is even more lost than his sister Melissa, and he doesn't even know the existence of potions and extraordinary powers.He has never received the favor and response of the gods in his life so far—perhaps he also had favor, that is, when his younger brother Klein found a job and his life gradually improved.Benson sometimes felt that it was his greed that caused the subsequent disasters. He hoped for a better life, so the gods gave them a lot of money and took away his younger brother.

What to do after being responded by the hidden existence?
Probably the prayer ceremony should be stopped immediately, and then don’t listen to anything the other party says, and don’t agree to anything, and report to the church as soon as possible... Benson’s mind quickly scrolled through many reports of suspected cultists in newspapers and church postings. the opposite case.

Isn't it "Master of Miracles Klein" who responded to me?How do I ask him, no, ask him about Klein's location?
What did he call me just now?Wait, did He call my name just now...

Benson trembled, and his shocked brain only now realized the answer from the secret existence just now—not only called him by name, but also called him "brother"!Because he asked about Klein's whereabouts, did the other party change into Klein's and answer him?Or maybe it was the deceased who answered him just now, Klein's soul was in the hands of the hidden existence, and he answered his question just now?

Thinking of this, Benson's breathing suddenly became short of breath.

He has too many puzzles, but he wants to know one thing extremely urgently.

Amidst the fear of the unknown and the inherent reverence for the existence of gods, Benson chose to muster up all his courage to ask this hidden existence, which is clearly the evil god. With a trembling voice, he asked what he most wanted to know. things:

"Respected existence."

He tried his best to maintain respect, no matter what, there was nothing wrong with expressing his insignificance and humility in front of these beings.

"Excuse me, my brother Klein Moretti, where is he now?"

……

Hearing this question, Klein suddenly felt like laughing.

It was a sarcastic laugh, a sad laugh, and finally a helpless sigh. All kinds of messy emotions weighed heavily on his heart and on his vocal cords, and he couldn't even make a sound.

Klein grinned, trying to imitate the feeling that the Lord of Mysteries gave him as naturally as possible, appearing calm and aloof - now he doesn't even need to deliberately imitate, he can carry the other party's temperament and a little thinking Way.

The Lord of Mysteries released a lot of information, basically all mystic information, and unlocked with it, there are also some permissions, and the divinity that belongs to the other party - the Outer God is indeed right, he confuses these two things He didn't really help Klein with the concept of things for human beings, but He projected his own will, so Klein's future accommodation of Extraordinary characteristics will definitely be smoother.

At this moment, he was standing in the square of the Mysterious Cathedral, with the endless sky above his head and a thin gray mist around him.

... Sure enough, when he chose to accept the will of the Lord of Mysteries, "Origin Castle" noticed him again.It turns out that it is so simple to take away "Origin Castle". You only need to do one thing, and that is to revive the mysterious will in your body.

Origin Castle will naturally follow.

"Benson, where am I?"

He said this with a smile, and then watched the other party's panic expression from the prayer screen, and said softly:

"I was killed."

"I'm in the grave, you know it. You and Melissa came to my funeral, you dressed me in new clothes, took my pocket watch, and stood with my colleagues, watching and I was buried in the mud."

The small space behind St. Selina's Church entrusts his brothers and sisters' condolences and endless memories of him.

However, Klein also knew that after Benson and Melissa gradually gained a foothold in Backlund and gained a new life, it had been a long time since they returned to Tingen to visit their own graves, and their condolences became tacit. The silence, a scar that no one would take the initiative to bring up - speaking of this, I would like to thank Leonard.

After he returned to Tingen to become the new team leader of the Blackthorn Security Company, he often went to the churchyard of St. Selina to weed and clean up.

To Benson and Melissa, Leonard was a close but unforgettable neighbor and a devout friend.But then they still went their separate ways, and there was almost no more contact.They didn't know until later that Leonard returned to Tingen and would occasionally visit the grave.

This is actually what Klein wanted to see the most.

Just like that, Klein, who wanted to live a peaceful life by his brother and sister, was killed.With this death, Klein's love for this world became less and less, along with his fragility and beautiful fantasies.

The thought of "going home" in his heart burned again, breaking through the desire for a peaceful life and loved ones.

Because compared to struggling to survive in this world, fighting like walking on thin ice, exploring, taking revenge, and facing the attacks of Extraordinary at any time, Klein, who had experienced the extraordinary treachery and terror before realizing the beauty of power, hoped to be able to Back to his real home, back to that stable world, back to his real parents and friends... Klein slowly recalled his past, saying these words with a poetic voice and rhythm , with a gentle and gentle voice, just like the real Klein Moretti.

"Benson, brother, do you remember that day?"

He didn't even need to think, these words just emerged from his mind.It seems that he naturally knows what to say, what to hide, and what kind of tone to match. Like acting, he can maximize the impact of his emotions on the other party.

Accompanied by these words, Klein saw that the panic and fear on Benson's face gradually decreased. His brother seemed to have confirmed through these tiny details that it was indeed Klein who was speaking, so he showed "listen carefully" expression.

Klein couldn't help feeling sorry for his brother's innocence.

In the extraordinary world, it is very simple to obtain information and intelligence about a person, and it is just a matter of divination for him, not to mention that there is a way to obtain information directly from other people's memories.These details alone are not enough to prove that he is Klein, but Benson knows nothing about it, and Klein can see the vague nostalgia and expectation from the other party's face.

……

Klein... It's really Klein!
While Benson was shocked, joy flooded his heart uncontrollably. Of course he remembered that day, how could he forget?

He and Melissa personally helped Klein replace the new idea given to the deceased. Melissa put the relic on Klein's body, and he took Klein's pocket watch—it was his father's relic, a beautiful watch. A gold pocket watch, which looks like a lot of money, is a decent accessory Klein needs in college.To this day, that pocket watch is still quietly lying on Benson's desk, and he takes it with him every day when he goes to work.

Although its shell has begun to show mottled and scratches, it does not match the identity of the Deputy Minister of Finance.

Klein, where are you now?

There was a glimmer of hope in Benson, his voice was trembling without him noticing, and he asked in a low voice:

"Klein, if you are dead, why are you talking to me here?"

"Have you already fallen asleep in the Goddess' kingdom, surrounded by sleeping flowers and evening herbs, and returned to a peaceful destination, free from worldly suffering?"

Benson's soliloquy caught the attention of the punisher. The punisher's eyes widened. He didn't expect that the bearer of this esteemed name actually responded to Benson Moretti's words!And the other party seems to have confirmed his identity!
Then, next, it depends on the attitude of this hidden existence towards the two of them...

The Punisher did not believe that a high-sequence Extraordinary would completely ignore his relatives, but he was also not sure whether the smoother life of the Moretti family was due to the other's care and help.He observed Benson, who was obviously in a special mood now, while Melissa Moretti seemed to be out of sorts, looking at his brother with worried eyes.

And Benson didn't feel any vigilant or concerned eyes on him at all. He was a little scared and nervous, but he was more looking forward to Klein's answer.

If so... Will we meet again under that starlit night after a long, long time?

……

What are you expecting, Benson?Klein thought to himself, are you expecting me to return to your side?

No, never again.

"I was killed that day, and I awoke from the grave."

Klein lowered his voice a little, as if speaking right next to Benson's ear.

He saw that Benson's expression immediately became stiff, and an expectant smile appeared on his face together with wide-eyed eyes, which looked a little funny.

"A nasty guy took my soul, and I have to work hard for it... I am very tired and helpless. Benson, I haven't even left college, but now I have traveled to many places, been to to the sea, and to a terrifying and dangerous place.”

I had special friends and had a dangerous time.In the end I lost my way home--both ways.

I have no way to turn back, and there is no home where I can sleep peacefully and have a good night's sleep, but I also have other ways to go. In the future, I will have an unimaginably long time, and I will become Very powerful, I may be omnipotent, and I can fall into a deep sleep for years... I will never see you again, you and my real hometown will only appear in my dreams.

Klein sighed silently, but the corners of his mouth curled up.

"My soul is controlled by the evil god, and my fate is out of my control. I have been forced to do many things. Did the Extraordinary of the Thunder Church tell you that I have done many bad things? Benson, Unfortunately, I will never see you again."

"We will never meet again in the kingdom of the goddess."

"It's a pleasure to talk to you, and I hope you tell Melissa that I miss her too."

"—do you wish me to say so?"

Benson was about to say something, but his expression suddenly froze on his face.

Probably because Klein's tone was too soft and deceptive, Benson didn't turn his head around for a while, and this last half-smile rhetorical question hit him hard like a heavy hammer. In his mind, Benson froze for a moment.

Klein smiled.

This time, he couldn't help but really laughed.

Looking at Benson's dull eyes, he suddenly understood why the Lord of Mysteries always likes to deceive and intimidate with lies. With part of the authority of Origin Castle, and part of the consciousness and divinity of the Lord of Mysteries, he should be almost indistinguishable from the Lord of Mysteries from a mystic point of view, right? ——Therefore, Klein did feel a bit of happiness from his brother's bewildered expression just now.

This is what it feels like to be successful in fraud.

Well, it's going to be like this -

He briefly brewed his words, and the smile on the corner of his mouth widened.

"I find your expression very interesting, Benson, Klein was also like that back then."

Benson was touched by his younger brother's name, and he subconsciously asked:
"what?"

TBC
------

"It was the same with him at the time. He expressed his anger to me with that worthless soul, accusing me of occupying his body. Then he cried and begged to me, hoping that I would let him die, and hope that I would not do anything to you Things are coming."

Klein was thinking and recalling, as if he was speaking completely as an outsider, and the lie turned into truth the moment he uttered it.

He sighed with a smile, giving Benson the final blow to his nerves, and he could already clearly see the trembling of the other party.

"Then he died and there was nothing left."

I have been looking forward to writing this episode since the beginning of the world.jpg
