Lord of Mysteries (诡秘之主)

In the world of Beyonders,

humans can attain various Beyonder abilities

by taking the potions

to accomplish the ascension path

to Divinity.

These 22 Pathways

begin with Sequence Nine.

The lower the number of the Sequence,

the stronger the Beyonder abilities are.

The powerful Sequence Beyonders

can have the powers of God.

This evolution is now called

the Path of the Divine.

FIFTH EPOCH, THE IRON AGE SEPTEMBER 9TH, 1349

TINGEN CITY'S DOOMSDAY

The world is illusory.

Chaos is constant.

The Supreme Existence is a divine blessing.

With deprivation,

with filth,

with darkness,

struggling in vain.

The unknown shall awaken.

Charged with blasphemy,

the herder crawls in devout.

I shall offer all the lambs

to welcome...

divinity!

EPISODE ONE, THE FOOL

It hurts.

THE FIFTH EPOCH, JUNE 28TH, 1349

Where am I?

Is it a nightmare?

A gun!

It hurts.

Is it a brain hemorrhage?

Did I die of fatigue?

Klein.

Who is it?

Who is Klein?

This isn't me.

Klein?

I...

I've transmigrated.

Report.

Captain.

Two deceased.

Welch and Naya.

History graduates of Khoy University.

Judging from the scene,

it's suicide.

But black divination was performed

or a Beyonder was sacrificed.

As a result,

an evil force was awakened.

This man is...

Klein Moretti.

A classmate of the deceased.

His parents are dead.

He lives with his siblings.

Klein Moretti, a Tingen City citizen of Awwa County

in the Loen Kingdom of the Northern Continent.

A fresh graduate of history.

Proficient in ancient Feysac and Hermes.

"May 29th, Welch came to see me.

He claimed to have come across an ancient notebook.

June 20th,

we deciphered the first page."

My goddess.

This is a notebook from the Fourth Epoch.

The writer came from...

The Antigonus Family.

"June 21st, 22nd, 25th.

Antigonus.

The Black Emperor.

The Tudor Kingdom.

Hornacis Mountain Range.

June 26th,

are all these strange things real?

June 28th."

Why isn't there an entry on the 27th?

Hermes?

"Everyone will die,

including me."

Why would Klein write that?

What had he seen?

Klein?

MELISSA MORETTI, KLEIN'S YOUNGER SISTER, BACKLUND UNIVERSITY STUDENT

You stayed up all night reading again?

What is this about?

I just woke up, so I'm tidying.

You're acting secretive.

What was that?

This seems to be...

broken again.

A sense of disdain and resignation?

She pulled it up? Shouldn't she adjust the time?

Done.

What?

Caring for a stupid brother?

The wound is almost healed.

A perk from transmigrating?

Shot through the temple?

Suicide?

Or disguised as suicide?

Although Klein's memories are scattered

and many details are lost,

I can be certain

that it has to do with that ancient notebook.

So what about my transmigration?

Everything seems normal lately.

I was just down on luck at work.

Right.

I did the Luck Enhancement Ritual before dinner.

Klein.

Go back to bed if you're dazed.

I'm okay.

All right then. I'm off to school.

Remember to get fresh bread. Just eight pounds.

It spoils too quickly in the heat.

By the way, get some lamb and peas.

You've been working hard to get a job.

I'll make you lamb with peas.

I'll get home a bit late.

Wait up.

I'm sorry, Melissa.

I might not be around when you get back.

A revolver is quite loud.

But Melissa didn't even hear it in the next room.

The longer I stay here, the more dangerous it is.

I'd better try the Luck Enhancement Ritual again

to see if I can transmigrate back.

I hope to make it home for dinner.

Mrs. Smyrin, eight pounds of rye bread.

Klein, have you graduated?

Thank you for asking.

You're so outstanding.

I believe you'll get a job soon and move to a new place.

You shouldn't live in that apartment.

You should at least have your own bathroom.

Mrs. Smyrin.

You sound like a lively young woman today.

Goodbye, Mrs. Smyrin.

Goodbye, Klein.

IRON AND CROSS STREET TINGEN CITY, LOEN KINGDOM

The sun looks similar.

If the Crimson Moon isn't so weird,

this does seem like a parallel universe.

Three.

Ten!

Tip.

Pass.

The Landlord Game?

Right, they have the Landlord Game too.

I think

about 100 years ago, the Intis Emperor,

Roselle Gustav, invented it.

He also invented tarot reading and the steamship, reforming the sailboat

and promoted the Spring Festival.

Like most novels,

Emperor Roselle Gustav

is most likely a transmigrator.

A fellow compatriot?

CIRCUS PERFORMANCE

A circus?

Sir, we await your arrival tonight

at seven o'clock.

Glory to the Goddess.

Lost lamb,

come here.

Come for guidance on your future path.

JENKINS

Where did he go?

Destiny is profound

and it's unpredictable.

The Tarot cards can help you

peek into the mysteries.

Tarot cards?

They are similar to those on Earth.

Emperor Roselle must be a transmigrator.

You're my first customer today.

It's on the house.

Have a seat.

It's free?

Certainly.

Let's begin.

Wait.

Let me ask again.

What about interpreting the cards? Is it also free?

Yes.

Anything free comes at a great price.

What would you like to know?

My past, present,

and future.

Please shuffle the cards again

and ask the question in your mind.

I already did.

Please start now.

This represents your past,

this, your present,
