Mystery: Beginning with the Pope of Night

"How dare you curse me?" Such a voice echoed throughout the dream world, making Klein's face look even weirder.

"I just wish you sincerely," Klein said cautiously.

"It's a blessing for a lot of people, but it's a curse for someone like me, and it brings dreamy eyes to me."

"And many times, being watched by him can be troublesome or even dangerous."

Klein looked towards the source of the sound. In the shadow of the church, a black stroller slid out, and inside lay an indistinguishable baby wrapped in silver silk.

The baby was very small and gave people a very fragile feeling, but it was an angel. If he hadn't deliberately suppressed it, Klein would have gone crazy after seeing him.

"'Mercury Snake', Mr. Will..." Klein looked respectful and obedient.

"You do know me, but it's not surprising. Let me count the breath on your body..."

An image of a child counting his fingers appeared in Klein's mind, "The voyeuristic mirror, the witch, the sun, the night, dreams..."

At the end of the count, the baby paused. Is this... a little too much?

The mirror is Arrodes, and the witch is the reason why I spy on the ring? The same goes for the sun, not to mention the night and dreams...

"...and that gray mist." The baby made a sighing voice, "There are many great beings who have watched you."

Therefore, He did not recognize Mr. Fool as me... Klein blinked and felt inexplicably more relaxed.

"Why is it troublesome to be watched by Mew?" Klein looked at the "Snake of Mercury" and asked cautiously.

"Since the Second Age, no ordinary person has died because of Dream, but too many Extraordinaries have died because of him, and the higher the sequence, the more dangerous it is." Baby said.

"Especially someone like me."

"Wow!" Mr. "Mercury Snake" opened his mouth and cried without any warning.

Klein's eyes slowly widened, and his mouth slowly opened, unable to close.

At this moment, he really doubted whether the person in front of him was a Sequence One existence, and whether he was the Chancellor of Destiny mentioned by Arrods.

"I just thought about sad things." The baby stopped crying. "And it is normal for children to cry because they are sad."

"Children should do what children dare to do."

Klein still couldn't fully understand this sentence, but he remembered it in his heart.

"Because of my dream, I spent thousands of years of accumulated luck. The most recent time I was almost caught by that stupid big snake."

"Wow!" Will began to cry again, "That snake is so big and I am so small!"

Two small hands gestured, trying to make Klein understand.

Are the two "mercury snakes" competing? Klein was thoughtful.

"That stupid big snake hides in the kingdom of the 'True Creator' every time it restarts. He has no childhood and lacks corresponding experiences. This should drive him into madness."

"But it's because of Mew's existence that he's in a better state than me! This isn't fair!"

The baby was about to cry, wiping tears with his hands.

It is easy for a baby in this state to overflow with sympathy, but Klein restrained himself.

This was not someone he could sympathize with.

"Okay." The baby suddenly stopped crying and stared at Klein, making him suddenly nervous.

"Because of your curse, and because of the secret knowledge I just gave, you need to do me a favor."

The mercury snake changed the topic so quickly that it almost reached Klein's waist.

And most of those secrets were told by you... Such thoughts flashed through Klein's face, but a smile appeared on his face.

"I, a Sequence Seven, don't have that kind of ability."

"But you are not an ordinary Sequence Seven! In my opinion, dual-path extraordinarys are extremely rare. I have only seen them three times in my long life."

"Generally speaking, people who drink the magic potion will be favored by dreams."

"Three times?" Klein knew that he could not escape this commission, so he hurriedly gathered the wool.

"The first one was Hermes, and the last one was Bernadette."

Hermes? The creator of ancient Hermetic language? !

"...Bernadette? The daughter of Empire Speaker Russell?" Klein blinked. He had seen this name in his diary.

"Yes." The baby nodded gently.

Klein's heart was filled with excitement, and then he heard the baby say, "My commission is very simple. You should be on the line with the Aurora Society now. I need you to inquire about the progress of their pursuit of me and report to me at any time."

You want me to be the second-in-command... Klein resisted for a moment, but this is something he can't resist!

Click!

The dream was broken, and Klein woke up. In front of him was Mr. Allen and his wife, and only a few seconds passed.

Klein left without any abnormality. Who would have thought that there was a Sequence One angel here?

"Restart!" But after Klein left, the dream that was on the verge of being broken returned to the way it was before it was broken.

This is not the signature move of "Mercury Snake", but a time regression when all the wishes come true. Except for Klein, who has escaped from the dream, everything is back to the way it was at the beginning.

"Wow!" Frightened cries resounded throughout the dream. The baby in the stroller kept fluttering, and this time he really started crying.

"Oh, don't cry, don't cry! I'm not here to trouble you." Truman's helpless voice sounded in the dream. He came out of the illusion and gradually condensed his body.

He squatted down, looked at Will in the stroller, stretched out his hand and patted the baby's chest gently to show comfort.

"Why are you here? Am I going to be eaten by a stupid snake today?!"

"My luck has indeed been used up, I'm so miserable!"

Under Truman's comfort, Will temporarily stopped crying, but he still shed tears.

"Silly Snake didn't come." Truman looked helplessly at Will, who was making a fuss like a baby.

"Huh?" Will wiped away his tears with his little hand and looked around. He really didn't see that stupid big snake, so at least he didn't need to worry about being eaten today.

"Could it be that the curse was successful?!" Will thought of the phrase "May the dream take care of you."

"Yes, the curse was successful. At least it allowed me to see you." Truman usually would not deliberately look for Will who was hiding his fate, but it was Klein's "curse" that attracted his attention.

The Sequence One person is there, and it’s hard not to notice it.

"I..." Will's little face wrinkled, "Then what are you here for?"

"Isn't this reminiscing about old times?" Truman looked at Will with interest.

"..." Will knew very well what kind of person he was now, so he simply messed it up. When such a being came here, his fate was no longer controllable by him.
