Regarding the plan to pull the salted fish Fors into the gray fog during the full moon, helping her isolate Mr. Door's whispers and preventing her from losing control, Klein naturally had no objections. He only discussed the feasibility of the plan with Lin Ruo again, and by the way, researched whether the gray fog could really isolate Mr. Door's whispers, and whether using this characteristic could achieve even more.
"If isolation is really effective, next time you encounter those Seers who are being chased by the Hidden Sage's knowledge and are about to lose control, you might as well try to pull them into the gray fog as well. Maybe that can also prevent them from losing control." Lin Ruo gave an example, subtly mentioning Justice, Audrey Hall, and then said:
"If you encounter similar situations yourself, you should be able to do the same… Moreover, isolation is likely effective; otherwise, you would have lost control the last time you courted death by peeking at the Eternal Blazing Sun."
Klein nodded thoughtfully, also thinking of his last act of courting death and the review he had to write until he vomited, and couldn't help but shudder.
I still shouldn't court death in the future…
However, peeking at the Eternal Blazing Sun was actually quite worthwhile, after all, he gained a lot of knowledge, and… cough! I can't think like that!
Klein silently suppressed the thought of courting death that popped up in his heart.
Lin Ruo then thought of something else and said, "By the way, the identity I used this time when contacting Xio and Fors was quite special. I'll go over the information with you so you don't reveal any flaws later…"
"Special? How special?" Klein, who had just suppressed the thought of courting death, immediately used Lin Ruo's new topic to divert his attention.
"You also know that generally speaking, the fake identities we use are basically non-existent, that is, fake aliases. Like your Gehrman Sparrow identity and Sherlock Moriarty identity, even if the official information is the most complete, they are essentially just fake characters that we fill in with information ourselves."
Lin Ruo said unhurriedly. He did plan to take this opportunity to certify the identity of the alias "Rudy Flair" with Klein. Anyway, there was not much need to hide it, but he would definitely make appropriate adjustments in his wording.
Speaking of which… if he had already transmigrated to this world long ago, then why would he have awakened in "Rudy Flair's" body?
Lin Ruo narrowed his eyes and suddenly began to think about this question that he had intentionally or unintentionally ignored before.
Before confirming that he had lost most of his memory, Lin Ruo didn't actually have any doubts about his transmigration into "Rudy Flair."
But after confirming that he had transmigrated to the world of Mysteries for a long time, when recalling when he had just "transmigrated," Lin Ruo almost immediately realized that this matter was full of incongruity.
He was indeed not "Rudy Flair," and he had indeed just revived using the latter's body. Even if he had lost his past memories, Lin Ruo could still be sure of these two points.
Then the question that followed was, why?
If he had clearly transmigrated long ago, why would he awaken in another body? Although this could be explained by his arrangements before losing his memory, what was the meaning of such an arrangement?
The person "Rudy Flair" was not too special in himself. Although he was somewhat involved in the Loen Royal Family's plan to become a god, this was not a big deal. Investigating the Loen Royal Family never necessarily required such an identity.
Moreover, Rudy Flair did die in an accident. Unless that accident was something he was pushing behind the scenes, but how could someone of his character do such a thing, and there was no need… Lin Ruo subconsciously began to think, and suddenly thought of something.
Time!
The time he "transmigrated" was actually about the same as when Klein was born from the Sefirah Castle.
Even considering that Klein didn't wake up immediately after he was born, but first went through the restoration of his physical functions, and struggled in dreams for a while before opening his eyes, it wasn't impossible that he and Klein descended from the Sefirah Castle at the same time.
Lin Ruo also remembered that when Klein first entered the Sefirah Castle, he instinctively tried to cause trouble by borrowing the connection between himself and Klein, attempting to enter the Sefirah Castle but being rejected.
At that time, he did encounter the Sefirah Castle's rejection, but he did see gray-white mist emerge before his eyes. This side shows that he didn't fail to establish any connection with the Sefirah Castle at all. Instead, it was closer to the situation where Roselle, the Great Emperor, wanted to establish a connection with the Sefirah Castle after imitating the silver amulet in his later years, but was rejected because he was not of the Three Cowards sequence.
Could it be that the reason I couldn't get to the Sefirah Castle at that time was not because I was an outsider, but because I was a Hunter?
Lin Ruo thought of this possibility, and then a new question emerged—but that's not right either. If he had been thrown from the Sefirah Castle with Klein, then he would have been thrown down long ago when contacting the Fourth Epoch. Why would he have waited until now?
Or rather, did he use some means before losing his memory, such as simulating the abilities of the Three Cowards to get to the Sefirah Castle, and then toss around in the Sefirah Castle, such as choosing Zhou Mingrui's cocoon and manipulating it, and then sleeping in the Sefirah Castle until now, until the Sefirah Castle threw Zhou Mingrui down, and then he "transmigrated" into Rudy Flair's body?
Lin Ruo suddenly looked at Klein, thinking of the wonderful mystical connection between him and Klein, which was obviously his own doing, and suddenly felt that this was very possible.
Moreover, as a Sephirot, the Sefirah Castle itself is very special. If he really had to make arrangements because of divinity or corruption, or even the awakening of the Celestial Worthy, sleeping in the Sefirah Castle might have miraculous effects?
Lin Ruo pinched his chin, the more he thought about it, the more reasonable he felt.
"Lin Ruo, what's wrong with you?" Lin Ruo had figured it out, but Klein, who was getting goosebumps from being stared at by him, was confused.
He really didn't understand what was going on. How could Lin Ruo suddenly "shut down" while talking properly, and suddenly look at him with a thoughtful expression?
"It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of something." Lin Ruo shook his head, and didn't plan to dwell on this question anymore. After all, this guess was still just a guess, and he couldn't find any valid evidence.
However, he could ask Old Man Pallez when he was last active. If it was a long time ago, the possibility of this guess would be very high.
Thinking this way, Lin Ruo then continued the previous topic and said, "Let's continue talking about the previous matter… The identity I used this time when contacting Xio and the others was indeed quite special. Strictly speaking, it's a real identity, once belonging to another person, but now it's being used by me, including his interpersonal relationships, which are basically inherited by me. It's a kind of impersonation!"
