"Regarding matters of Beyonders, perhaps you would be interested in understanding a bit…"
Hearing Klein's words, Benson and Melissa exchanged a glance. Ultimately, Benson took the initiative and nodded, saying, "Klein, you speak, we're listening."
"The specific explanation of matters regarding Beyonders is quite complex. Let's find a place to sit first, and I'll slowly explain it to you." After Klein finished speaking, he led Benson and Melissa to sit on the sofa in the living room. He also poured them tea before sitting down opposite them, saying:
"You should have all heard of the creation myths. Although many records in the creation myths are of unknown truth, as far as I know, there was probably a Creator God who truly existed. And all the extraordinary things in this world come from Him…"
Klein introduced everything at a measured pace, from the origin of Beyonder characteristics to the basic knowledge of the God pathways, from the orthodox gods of the major Churches to the evil gods whose honored names must never be uttered.
Of course, Klein didn't want Benson and Melissa to become like the "Hazel" that Lin Ruo once joked about after stepping into the extraordinary world – knowing nothing and potentially courting death due to their ignorance. Therefore, he tried his best to introduce everything he knew in a way that was broken down and thoroughly explained to Benson and Melissa.
After Klein finished speaking, already parched, he took a sip of water and asked, "If you have any questions, you can ask me. I will definitely answer you if I know."
The two people sitting opposite him were clearly still recovering. After a few seconds, Melissa asked, "So Klein, you are not only a Beyonder of the Church, but even, even have a Blessed of the Goddess as your teacher?"
"Yes, actually you have also met my teacher, it was the one who went to the theater with us last time." Klein nodded. He naturally brought up this matter to reassure Benson and Melissa. After all, a Blessed was a high-level existence in any Church, and with a Blessed as his backing, he naturally wouldn't be doing too badly in the Goddess Church.
However, Lin Ruo's relationship with the Goddess is very strange. I'm also almost becoming a Nighthawk who is left to fend for himself… Klein complained in his heart, but then silently sighed.
Now, he can basically be certain that the Goddess's special treatment towards him is because of that gray fog, and he has also noticed through Lin Ruo's various attitudes that his own growth seems to be related to something important.
Klein is certain that Lin Ruo very much hopes that he can ascend to the peak of the sequence and is also certain that the other party seems to be very anxious, as if there is not much time left for him to grow. If he cannot advance to a certain height in a short period of time, something irreversible will happen.
Regarding this, Klein initially, under Lin Ruo's coaxing, did indeed naively think that this was because Lin Ruo was worried that he would not be able to protect himself in the apocalypse.
But later, as time passed, through the various information revealed by Lin Ruo, as well as the attitudes revealed by some other people, such as the Goddess's unknown mission, such as the words that Medici once said, Klein gradually understood that Lin Ruo's expectations for him were definitely not the so-called Sequence 2. The other party's hope that he would advance was not only to hope that he could protect himself in the apocalypse, but also for some deeper reasons.
And this deeper reason is likely that the big shots who have reached a certain level, such as angels, or Kings of Angels, all know a little bit about it.
Klein doesn't know what the reason is, but he has his own guesses, and among all of them, he thinks the most likely one is related to the apocalypse.
The gray fog may be the key to preventing the apocalypse, or allowing the people of this world to survive in the apocalypse.
And the growth of him, the "Lord of the Gray Fog," naturally became a very important thing.
Not only that, from Medici's sentence "I thought you would be more supportive of Abraham," Klein came to a conclusion—that the important existence in the apocalypse does not necessarily have to be him.
Perhaps, this is a position that all Beyonders of the Evernight, Storms, and Wisdom families can compete for, a competition that only high-level people can understand.
In this competition, he may have a slight advantage because of the existence of the gray fog, but not too much—Klein can actually be sure that he is not yet the master of that gray fog, but has only established a connection with it.
He is very clear that the gray fog can be snatched away by others, although it may be more difficult, but someone will definitely be able to do it, such as those high-sequence Beyonders of the Evernight, Storms, and Wisdom families.
It's just that Lin Ruo chose him.
Klein already understands this.
The former Lin Ruo, the powerful and mysterious King of Angels, chose him, or rather, chose the next transmigrator who descended into this world through the Sefirah Castle.
Klein doesn't know the truth of transmigration, but he can at least guess that his transmigration is closely related to the gray fog. And the connection between Lin Ruo and him is probably established through the gray fog, otherwise Klein really can't think of any other possibilities.
Who can bind the soul of a transmigrator in advance?
The only explanation is probably that the former Lin Ruo found the gray fog in advance and tampered with the gray fog, causing him, after losing his memory, to be bound to the next transmigrator who descended into this world through the gray fog.
Combined with Lin Ruo's personality, Klein can almost imagine that as long as the transmigrator who is bound to Lin Ruo is not too bad in character, they will not ignore him in this situation, but they may not have a very good relationship with each other.
And the influence of the gray fog itself, coupled with Lin Ruo's understanding of the God pathways, as well as his mastery of the complete sequence potion formulas of the Seer pathway, will make that transmigrator have a high probability of becoming a Beyonder of the Evernight, Storms, and Wisdom families, and then enter this competition.
Klein doesn't understand why the former Lin Ruo did this, and doesn't know what the other party's purpose is, or whether it is like the Goddess, there is something he needs to do?
The only thing he can be sure of is that Lin Ruo's feelings for him now are real. The other party is not simply using him, but sincerely regards him as a friend and student, sincerely hoping that he can live well, and also sincerely worrying about his future.
That's enough.
Klein will not blame the current Lin Ruo for the former Lin Ruo's calculations, even if one day in the future, the Lin Ruo who has regained his memory becomes cold and unfamiliar, and parts ways with him, he will not deny this friendship between them.
Because the one he knows is the current Lin Ruo, not the former Angel of Judgment.
The one who calculated against him was only the Angel of Judgment, not Lin Ruo, the teacher who would even remind him to beware of backstabbing.
As for more things, Klein doesn't want to think about them now, after all, that is too far away from him.
The only thing he can do is probably to work hard to improve his sequence until he can know the truth of everything.
Thinking this way, Klein saw that Benson and Melissa in front of him both showed surprised expressions.
"That Mr. Lin Ruo… he, he is actually a Blessed of the Goddess?" Melissa covered her mouth, obviously very shocked. "He doesn't look like it at all. I thought a Blessed would be the kind of person who looks very dignified or mysterious… I'm sorry, I'm not saying bad things about your teacher, I'm just…"
"I know, Melissa, you don't need to explain." Klein said with a smile, reassuring Melissa.
Benson also smiled at this scene, and then, as if thinking of something, his expression became serious, and he asked:
"Klein, so, why did you suddenly tell us this? Did something happen?"
