So, should they be considered his nephews and nieces?
Klein thought to himself, instinctively overlooking the teacher-student relationship between him and Lin Ruo when considering seniority, while also wondering about another question.
That is, if Lin Ruo really had children, who would be the mother?
Could anyone really win over Lin Ruo?
Klein didn't doubt Lin Ruo's personal charm, after all, whether it was in terms of appearance, strength, or emotional intelligence, Lin Ruo was definitely the popular type. One could get a glimpse of this from Lin Ruo's group of bigwig friends.
But Klein had never really thought about Lin Ruo dating anyone. The feeling he got from the other party was always someone who loved knowledge, loved reading, had a strong sense of dark humor, and was always busy saving others, even when he stopped, he would always find something to do, as if stopping would make him feel guilty, as if he was being chased by something.
Would such a person really date and marry like ordinary people?
And… Klein glanced at Lin Ruo, pursing his lips.
He had always felt that Lin Ruo's state was very delicate, or rather, very lonely.
Lin Ruo had many friends, seemed to get along well with everyone, always wore a gentle smile, had his own hobbies and values, and even if he was occasionally sad, he would quickly cheer up, as if nothing could defeat him.
Logically speaking, such a Lin Ruo shouldn't be lonely, but occasionally Klein could indeed feel a certain deep loneliness and detachment from Lin Ruo.
He seemed to have integrated himself into this world, and at the same time, he seemed to have completely isolated himself from the world.
In this regard, Klein couldn't say that he didn't understand, after all, as a fellow transmigrator, he would occasionally have such feelings.
But Klein always felt that the loneliness in Lin Ruo was even more profound than his own.
But he himself didn't seem to notice it at all.
"Stop looking, he's already left." Lin Ruo glanced at Klein with some confusion. He didn't really understand Klein's slightly complicated gaze, but guessed that he might be imagining the child's mother, so he simply explained: "Also, there is no child's mother. Strictly speaking, that child is not my biological son, but my creation."
"Creation?" Klein was stunned for a moment. This adjective was indeed a bit subtle.
"Well, maybe similar to an active mystical item? I'm not too sure, anyway, that's what he said himself." Lin Ruo said this, and then looked at the house behind him and said: "In short, let's go back first, this is not the place to talk."
Klein naturally had no objections to this. The two quickly returned to the Sherlock Law Firm, and after greeting Benson and Melissa who were studying, they entered the study and came to the gray fog above.
After all, the things to be discussed next were still relatively important.
"Let's talk about the Master Key first. I met a person who claimed to be Little Bethel in 32 Verdi Street, South Bridge District. He may be my previous creation. But I haven't figured out more information for the time being, so I won't tell you."
Lin Ruo briefly explained what happened just now in a few words, "As for the origin of that key, it was a product of an Abraham family descendant who established contact with Mr. Door and then typed 'gg', and may also involve some troublesome people. In short, try not to carry that key with you, and don't put it on the gray fog above. I suspect there may be some unknown hidden dangers."
If it was only related to Bethel, Lin Ruo might not have cared, but now that the origin of the Master Key is related to someone suspected to be Celestial Worthy/Amon, who knows if there will be any schemes in it.
After all, whether it's Amon or Celestial Worthy, these old coins are all layered cakes. Even if what they do is ostensibly for the sake of dark humor, it may actually be for an unknown purpose—for example, Amon, in the original book, he almost tricked Klein by using the identity of the Bell-Ringing Angel in Klein's battle to become a god.
But before he took action, who could have imagined this? Even readers with God's perspective only thought that he would ring the bell as an angel serving the Fool as stated in the Fool's Scriptures, just for the sake of dark humor.
It can only be said that the three families of the high sequence are all in the atmosphere. For their behavior, even the most inconspicuous one, you have to pay attention to whether there is a deeper meaning.
"Troublesome people…" Klein was shocked, a little puzzled but didn't ask too much. After all, he understood Lin Ruo. The fact that the other party had already used the term "troublesome people" meant that either he was not sure about the information in this regard, or he didn't want to tell him about it.
Klein just secretly decided to throw the Master Key into his other safe house when he got back, and wouldn't use it again unless necessary.
As for selling it, Klein didn't plan to do so for the time being, after all, this key was obviously a trap, and Klein didn't plan to trick people.
Of course, if he encountered those dangerous Beyonders who deserved to die, it wasn't impossible to trick them… Klein silently added in his heart.
"Okay, let's talk about my business now!" Lin Ruo hooked the corner of his mouth again and said, "Let's talk about my biggest secret."
Klein became even more serious than just now, looking at Lin Ruo with curiosity and anticipation.
"First of all, I want to apologize to you here, Klein, I have been lying to you about one thing." Lin Ruo said seriously, his attitude very sincere, "I don't actually have any mystical item that can simulate the abilities of any pathway in the high sequence, that's my own ability."
"Ah?" Klein was stunned, not bothering to be angry about being deceived, because he was already shocked by Lin Ruo's next explanation.
"What do you mean… that's your own ability?"
Klein actually understood, but felt a little unable to comprehend.
"It's the literal meaning." Lin Ruo smiled and explained: "That's the ability I had since I transmigrated. In my prime, I could simulate the abilities of any sequence in any of the 22 pathways. For example, as long as I wanted to, I could even completely simulate the ability of Sequence 0 of the Seer pathway."
"Of course, I can't do it now. My ability is now limited for some reason, and currently I can only simulate up to Sequence 3."
"You, you're not kidding, are you?" Klein felt that his three views on mysticism had been subverted.
"Of course I'm not kidding, and this ability is not perfect either. If the sequence I simulate is very high, it can only last for a very short time. Take now, if I simulate the ability of Sequence 3, it can basically only last for a few tens of seconds."
Lin Ruo explained, "At the same time, if the sequence I simulate is too high, such as reaching the angel level, this ability will also affect my humanity and make my mental state unstable. It can be said that the flaws in this ability are still not small."
The Sefirah Castle suddenly fell silent, and Klein obviously had to digest this shocking information for a while.
Lin Ruo didn't care, waited patiently for a while, then thought of something and curled his lips: "Speaking of which, probably because of this ability, I was once rumored to be the Creator's alt account, those people are really good at making things up."
Hearing his words, Klein, who had been silent for at least several tens of seconds, couldn't help but complain:
"Forgive me for speaking frankly, but I also think you are the Creator's alt account now."
"Are you really sure you didn't transmigrate into the Creator back then?"
