Chapter 169: Lynn: I'm Really a Good Brother.

Medici's recently uplifted smile froze instantly as a flood of memories poured into his mind.

In these memories, he was being beaten up by Lynn every three days and severely every five days. His unkind brother was indeed showing Medici what it meant to be nicknamed "Amon Jr."

δηζβηλζ (Second Epoch curse)!

Medici almost instinctively cursed in his heart. He sometimes felt that he must have had terrible luck for several lifetimes to end up with these two little bastards. (Amon and Lynn)

"Be confident, Red, maybe in your past life, you destroyed the universe!" Lynn said abruptly, as usual, using his sharpness for sarcasm.

"Heh, it seems someone is quite self-aware." Medici sneered, but then stiffened because he suddenly realized that he had long been influenced by the other party. Otherwise, how could his language habits and thinking processes be mixed with the commonly used terms and descriptions of the other?

This realization made Medici frown instinctively, just as the young man in front of him smiled and said, "By the way, not only did I beat Amon several times for you, but I also gave Alista Tudor a good thrashing."

Hearing this, Medici couldn't care about the previous issue. He suddenly looked at Lynn and confirmed, "You beat Tudor?"

"Yes, Amon can testify to that. Later, when I bring Bethel back, he can testify too. Oh, and Little Antigo, when he escapes his current madness and returns to being a Miracle Invoker, he can testify as well." Lynn said with a smile, suddenly much happier because of recalling a pleasant memory.

Medici's expression turned subtle instantly. He did not doubt the truth of Lynn's words. There was no need for the other party to lie about something so easily disproved, and strictly speaking, such a lie would not benefit the other party much.

What surprised Medici was that Lynn would do this for him... to beat up Tudor.

Medici knew very well that although the other party could use some powerful force at critical moments, Lynn obviously did not like that kind of power. In fact, that power was likely harmful to Lynn himself, pushing him closer to divinity and affecting his humanity.

——This was Medici's postulation based on memories. As a top-level schemer, his mind was indeed excellent, much better than his unkind brother.

This was probably also why, even though Lynn was strong enough to crush anyone in the world, he usually only used the abilities of a Sage.

Lynn actually did not like using that power, even though it was his trump card, even though it made him nearly invincible in this world.

Medici saw this clearly. His unkind brother, although in some sense more of a troublemaker than Amon, actually valued his humanity a lot and was always careful to maintain it.

If someone else had Lynn's power, they would not care whether it eroded their humanity. Many have lost their humanity and sanity for the sake of ascension, with Alista Tudor being the best example.

Because of this, Medici was so surprised. In his judgment, Lynn should not do such a thing for him, as it would damage the humanity he carefully maintained.

But Lynn did it anyway.

Then he came to share the joy of this event with him.

Although Medici was momentarily speechless, he looked at Lynn, slightly lowering his gaze. A few seconds later, he suddenly chuckled and, with blood-red eyes looking at Lynn, said, "Aren't you the one who hates using that power the most? You even beat a Sequence 0. What, aren't you afraid of losing yourself?"

"Of course, I'm afraid, but I had no choice. Avenging you was more important. After all, I'm a good brother!" Lynn shrugged, his smile helpless.

"Heh, you should touch your chest when you say that to see if it's still beating..." Medici laughed, his tone dripping with sarcasm, "Too bad I couldn't see it. Otherwise, I would probably laugh even in my dreams."

"It is a bit of a pity. How about I weave a dream later, extract this memory, and make a dream so you can personally experience the joy of beating Tudor?" Lynn suddenly had a brilliant idea and promised, "Don't worry, as long as you don't delve into my subconscious, surface dreams are absolutely safe."

This was true. Whether out of disguise or some other reason, Lynn's surface information was very safe. Simply put, on the surface, Lynn had dreams and spiritual threads like a normal person.

So even a Sequence 7 Nightmare could enter his dreams without danger if Lynn allowed it, as long as they didn't try to explore deeper layers of his dreams and consciousness.

His spiritual threads were the same. Each of Lynn's identities had spiritual threads that could indeed be controlled by a Marionettist, but like Rosago, the surface disguise was just a disguise. Normally, a Puppet Master could control Lynn's body through his spiritual threads but couldn't control his soul, let alone puppetize him.

In other words, if a high-sequence Fool pathway Beyonder in the future tried to puppetize Lynn, they would find out—laughably—that it wouldn't work, as the process would always be stuck at the final step.

Because of this, Lynn suspected that if an Scholar of Yore tried to pull out his historical projection, it might work—but the historical projection would just be a normal version of him, not using his unknown powers or unique abilities.

But Lynn had a feeling that if someone did pull out his historical projection, it might succeed, but controlling the historical projection would be another matter entirely.

Medici, recalling the fate of the Dragon of Nightmares, was initially hesitant, but his curiosity about Alista Tudor getting beaten prevailed, so he didn't refuse. He only asked, "Why could Amon and the others testify? Did you beat Tudor in front of them?"

"Ah, didn't I say? I temporarily turned them against him and beat Tudor with them." Lynn smiled brightly, "His confidants instantly became his biggest threats."

Medici instantly understood the meaning of double the joy, unable to hold back his laughter:

"Hahaha..."
