Chapter 578: Tragedy Writer: I Even Watch My Own Show

With the help of Benjamin, Annan felt that he was getting closer to the truth.

The different identities of an Idol Wizard would indeed be separated from each other as people recognize them. However, the holder of these identities was the same person in reality.

There must be intersections between “they”.

Then, as long as ordinary people identify one of the identities and continue to investigate, they might find other identities. That was what Annan and the others were doing now.

It was not an easy task to hide identity.

There was a saying: If you want others to not know about something, you must not do it.

To make one of the personas more flashed out, hinting at others it was a new identity, it was required to engage in a lot of unique and personalized behaviors at a high frequency. However, since these actions were widely known, they would inevitably leave evidence behind.

“This is not something that can be kept well hidden. Since Trisino can foresee the future — no matter if he relies on the Prophet Spell, his wisdom, or the divine art of Tragedy Writer… In short, he can see the future up to this point.

“Then, the fact that you ‘learned the identity of Pope Trisino’ must have been expected by him.” Annan said slowly, “Have you considered this?”

Nefertari nodded, “Naturally.”

“I guess it’s supposed to let me get the adaptability of the [understanding] element.

“The teacher once told me that my talent lies in intuition.”

In her words, Nefertari still referred to Seti as a “teacher”. That could be understood as a kind of… ‘female intuition’.

Speaking of this, Nefertari smiled helplessly, “Although it may be a bit boastful to say so, my intuition has always been quite accurate.

“Occasionally, I can directly guess the truth without evidence or logic.”

“What?” Annan heard this, and he raised his voice slightly higher.

What did Annan realize?

Nefertari nodded to Annan, “Yes.

“It’s similar to the expression of the [understanding] element. So I guess the [understanding] element in this nightmare may have been prepared for me in the first place.”

Trisino threw Nefertari to a safe place but asked her to bring Annan to participate in the plan.

His goal should be to let her get that share… It was likely that it was Trisino’s own mastery of the [understanding] element.

“You probably guessed it right.” Hearing this, Benjamin nodded slightly, “Pope Trisino may not want to get anything from you… Rather, it’s the opposite. He wants to keep you alive.

“You are the ‘anchor’ tied to the safety rope around his waist before he jumped off the cliff.”

Hearing this, Annan looked at Benjamin.

“If you put it that way…”

“He probably wanted a complete separation from his past self.”

Benjamin said in a deep voice, “That was the idea of ??’the Man in the Mirror’ at the beginning. That’s why I came here.

“In the ascendancy ritual, when He arrived at the Light Realm on the Divine Transporter, his vision of the future became broad for a moment. It was at that time that the Man in the Mirror saw Pope Trisino steal the power stolen from Him in the ‘past’.

“He used the strength of the Man in the Mirror to construct the nightmare you just purified. He must have a plan for going in a big circle. The future in the eyes of the Man in the Mirror has been revealed…Trisino must have eventually betrayed the Tragedy Writer.”

Pope betrayed the deities not once or twice.

This was not surprising.

Just like fans tend to lose their respect for idols, Pope himself would get the covenant of the deities, which meant that he had already gained the attention of the deities for some reason.

They must be outstanding talents themselves to become a deity’s secret keeper. For such a person, unless their ideals were the same or they were favored in the past, most of them would not sincerely believe in a certain deity.

From another point of view, the pope had no obligation to believe in deities. This was only based on the ethics of the secret keeper, or the exchange of interests.

Annan, for example.

Annan had the Angel of Betrayal, Angelo’s covenant.

From the perspective of religion, Annan was the Angel of Betrayal or the pope of the Venerated Skeleton… Obviously, Annan not only had no faith in the Venerated Skeleton, but he even wanted to kick Him.

“Tragedy Writer is naturally aware of this matter.” Benjamin said in a deep voice.

Tragedy Writer was originally the pinnacle of the Idol School, the master of [Law of Similarity], and Pioneer King. It was also reasonable for Idol School to also practice Soul Snatch School or Prophet School.

As wise as He was, He didn’t even need to use His power or peek into the future.

The deities of this world could not stay in places like the astral world. They were all in the world, but not necessarily at a fixed spot.

As for the Tragedy Writer, He must be by the pope’s side.

With His insight into human hearts, it was impossible for Him to not notice that Trisino had ulterior motives.

He just wanted to watch the fun even if it involved Him

Pope’s betrayal of the deities was indeed a good show. If the process of this betrayal was stretched to decades, then no matter what the result was, it would be an outstanding “tragedy”.

“To put it simply, Trisino intends to regain the power that has been weakened ‘because he has faith’.”

Annan straightforwardly explained to Longjing Tea who was a little confused, “He wants to return to his strongest state. And for this purpose… he must betray the ‘Tragedy Writer’.

“Yes, He’s going to kill ‘Pope Trisino’.”

At that moment, Longjing Tea’s voice sounded in his head.

“According to the spell check, the one who killed Justice was none other than Justice himself.” His pupils dilated slightly.

Everything was similar.

“This nightmare, named ‘Phantom Fever’, has the characteristic ‘reenactment’—that is, the characteristic of the gallery nightmare.”

Annan added.

As long as the dungeon challenger dies, he would lose his memory.

Because really, all nightmares were everchanging.

Known information, whether misleading or not, would affect the judgment of the dungeon challenger. In other words, the memories of their nightmares had already interfered with their choices. They would act more on “experience” rather than “intuition”.

The so-called “reenactment” feature was to help people return to their original intentions.

The losers did not know what to do to pass the level. They would eventually return to the step of “choosing with their true thoughts”, and finally repeat that infinitely.

That was to say, the “reenactment of something” had been achieved.

Like the dungeon challengers, they betrayed Elle again and again in Nightmare: Gallery.

This nightmare also had a similar mechanism.

“As you know, I can see what you see.” Annan said seriously to Longjing Tea, “This time, I need your help——

“But I have already passed the level once. My choice will inevitably become unobjective, and I am not familiar with any of you. There will inevitably be misunderstandings when you cooperate… It just so happens that the Man in the Mirror is here. So, I wish to hold a ritual.

“The ‘self-propelled mirror’ ritual in the field of ‘mirror’. It is used to transfer the key to the nightmare to others.”

In other words, it was to find two players, who would cooperate, to play on behalf of Annan.

Annan exchanged secrets with another player and then let both players enter with the keys. Annan and Delicious Wind Goose watched the live broadcast outside. They would be the commentator, analyzing the details of the nightmare dungeon instance from a neutral and objective perspective.

After the analysis, Annan and a player would enter the nightmare.

“I hope that you will elect two people. It doesn’t matter what profession you have because I can prepare the key… There is only one requirement. You must cooperate with each other tacitly and know each other well.”

Annan looked at Longjing Tea seriously, “I would need your help.”
