Chapter 192: Is the Lynn You Mentioned Behind You?

In the Fourth Epoch, the Nation of Evernight.

Though called a nation, the Nation of Evernight's scale was not particularly large. Compared to powerful empires like the Tudor Empire and the Solomon Empire, it was at most a prosperous city.

However, this city was indeed peaceful and harmonious, with an atmosphere of tranquility that empires like Tudor lacked. The ongoing war between the Four Emperors seemed to have no impact here; life continued as usual.

It's worth noting that every resident of the Nation of Evernight was a follower of Antigonus and his sister, the Mother of the Sky. In life, they leaned towards worshiping the Mother of the Sky. When they naturally reached the end of their lives, they would be transformed into secret puppets without any pain, eternally accompanying Antigonus.

This seemed to be a habit of Antigonus and the Mother of the Sky, a habit dating back to when Antigonus just a Miracle Invoker, living with his sister. He would share followers with his sister in this manner, amassing secret puppets over time, eventually forming a puppet town. This enabled him to complete the ritual to become a Attendant of Mysteries.

Although now a Semi-Fool and able to spread his faith openly, Antigonus retained this habit because his followers had long been accustomed to living with the Mother of the Sky in life and serving Antigonus in death.

For the followers of the Mother of the Sky and Antigonus, becoming a secret puppet without pain at life's end to accompany their deities was a blessing. Every citizen of the Nation of Evernight hoped for such an end, just as followers of gods wished to enter their deity's kingdom after death.

Thus, even after completing his ascension, Antigonus maintained his old habit of preserving the puppet town.

For Antigonus, the small Nation of Evernight, this city of the deceased he had gradually built, was a rare place of peace and tranquility. He loved this nation and wished for this peaceful life to continue.

This led to Antigonus almost fleeing back to the Nation of Evernight for comfort from his sister after being frightened outside.

"What happened, Antigonus? You seem greatly frightened... Is a Sequence 0 targeting you?" asked a gentle woman wearing a hood and a dark cloak, her eyes as deep as the night.

This woman was Antigonus's sister, the Mother of the Sky of the Nation of Evernight.

"Not a Sequence 0..." Antigonus shook his head, recounting his bizarre experience in the Tudor Empire. He didn't hide anything from his sister, with whom he had shared his memory upon realizing something was wrong with it.

To his horror, his sister hadn't noticed any alteration in her memory, even with his prompt. She was puzzled but chose to trust Antigonus, acknowledging his higher resistance to such changes as a Semi-Fool compared to her Sequence 2 in the Darkness Pathway.

Understanding she was too weak to perceive the change, she listened to Antigonus's account and furrowed her brow almost instinctively: "So, you met the one who altered history..."

Her expression grew worried, and she added apologetically, "I'm sorry, Antigonus. If I had known you would meet him, I wouldn't have read that book."

Though Antigonus would have received the Tudor tea party invitation regardless, he might not have attended without that absurd fanfiction.

"That's not your fault, sister. That guy has a significant connection with Bethel, acting as his son. I would have encountered him sooner or later unless I avoided the Tudor Empire entirely, which is impossible."

Antigonus shook his head, clearing in his thoughts. Since the Angel of Secrets chose to act as Libert Abraham, their meeting was inevitable.

Moreover, judging by Lynn's attitude, Antigonus knew he would remember him. Avoiding him entirely was impossible.

"Thankfully, I can stay at home. The outside world is terrifying; home is better." Antigonus said, still shaken. "I even suspect that guy wants to catch me as a pet dog. When he petted me, my spiritual intuition nearly exploded, with every hair warning me of danger."

"Sounds terrifying. Stay home; perhaps he'll lose interest after a while..."

The Mother of the Sky, recognizing the severity, agreed with Antigonus's idea. But then she suddenly fell silent, staring behind Antigonus. After a hesitant moment, she asked,

"Antigonus, the one you mentioned, does he look about fifteen or sixteen, with blond hair, gray eyes, and very handsome?"

"Yes, how did you know? I haven't described him yet..." Antigonus asked, realizing something and stiffening. He looked at his sister with his eyes,

'Is he here?'

The Mother of the Sky nodded stiffly, barely moving.

Doomed!

Antigonus's mind flooded with visions of his possible deaths. He felt a hand on his head and, driven by a strong survival instinct, transformed into a wolf the size of a human. He heard a familiar voice behind him,

"Wow! He turned into a big dog again. Fluffy is the best! This feels way better than Evernight."
