...Then the Fool steps forward silently, surrounded by the transcendent golden mist. At that moment, the Jester becomes tense and charges toward the Fool with an extremely fast strike using his hands, and suddenly the Fool dodges it. Then the Jester decides to use the Reincarnation ability, and multiple copies of the Jester appear as he creates swords from a rose on his shirt. Then he decides that everyone will charge at the same moment and attack from behind, but suddenly the Fool moves as if he already knew the move they were about to execute, because the Divination ability had evolved to a higher level due to the transcendent golden mist, making the Jester extremely nervous. Suddenly, the Fool pulls out the pistol from his side and coats it with the golden mist, transforming the pistol into something far greater and more powerful. Then he fires multiple shots at the same moment with a much larger and more refined form, whereas previously he only fired a single shot, and that shot was small in size, but now the shot from the pistol exceeds 30 centimeters in length. The Jester dodges with difficulty and says: "Who the hell are you?" The Fool never speaks, and suddenly the Fool transforms the golden mist into tentacles resembling octopus tentacles, but enormous, due to his ability to transform the golden mist into anything, no matter what, literally, though the amount of energy needed depends on Nihil's and his body's strength. Then the golden tentacles pierce the Jester's body, and the Jester laughs, bleeding heavily, saying: "For you, Hornasis." Then Nihil returns to his normal state while in pain and feeling weak. Nihil raises the pistol, which has returned to its normal state, and fires at the Jester's face, killing him. [This was extremely difficult; he's strong]. Then Nihil closes the bag containing the little Jester, and suddenly his friends' thinking returns, as they had been unable to watch the battle while sound itself was stopped and they couldn't hear. Then everyone moves and sees the Jester lying on the ground...
...Then Azik, who appears confused, speaks, saying: "So you were outside the effect of Trace 991 after all. Well done defeating this person; he really seems to be a Transcendent of the Eighth Flame. Now come on, Flora, help me treat my injuries." Then Azik and Flora go to help him, while Hyean smiles and whispers in Nihil's ear: "I know you're special and there's something strange about you. Don't worry. Also, I could have intervened but I didn't want to." Nihil smiles at him as sweat drips from his forehead, then Hyean goes and waves his hand toward Nihil. Then Nihil says to himself [This boy is truly arrogant; I must try to control myself then]. Suddenly, the Fool speaks from inside Nihil and says: "Nihil, I realized something the Jester was thinking about. It turns out he's from the same Path as you, the Seer Path, specifically the Eighth Flame: the Flame of the Jester!" Nihil is greatly surprised and says to himself [So this Jester turned out to be from my same Path after all]. Then the Fool replies and says: "Yes, indeed." Then Nihil leaves and disappears from the place, while an unknown figure appears and picks up the black key, smiling as he watches Nihil...
...After several hours, after Nihil had eaten at home, he changes his clothes while speaking to the Fool, saying: "I want to ask you a question." Then the Fool says: "Go ahead, what is it?" Nihil thinks for a moment and says: "How does your power increase? I mean, you exist because the True Death stabbed me, causing something unknown to happen." Then the Fool speaks and says: "Not exactly. The energy that stabbed you—I am not entirely the product of it. No, that energy consisted of a large part of evil and deadly energy, and that energy destroyed your previous horned body. As for the good part of it, I was formed from that. As for why my power increases, I don't know, but there's only one thing I do know: the golden mist is not from my power. The third entity in your memory, which we cannot perceive, is the cause of that energy." Nihil is greatly surprised and drops his coffee cup on his pants, then goes to change his pants, saying to himself [Who is this entity in my memories? And how did it even come to be in my memories? It seems like a fragile, very ancient memory, and it seems this matter is not small but an endless sea of mystery]. Suddenly, the Fool speaks from inside him and says: "This golden mist is the only ability I possess. I had no ability when I swallowed the energy in the lighthouse in the colorless world where the True Death brought us. I gained immunity to that energy, but I had no abilities. Indeed, through this mist, I can shape anything, no matter what, literally, and at the same time, enhance anything, no matter what. I enhanced the Divination ability I acquired from you and was able to foresee the Jester's future moves and other things I don't even know myself, but they come to me like inner words. As for the power I can use from the golden mist and shape it, it depends on your own body's limited strength, so I cannot use all its potential that I know yet." Nihil falls silent for a moment and says to himself [I must one day discover the identity of this third entity, but for now, I must pursue my goal: to ascend, to ascend until I save my loved ones and eliminate the True Death]...
...After a few minutes, Nihil leaves the house and heads to a medical clinic in Divination. Then Nihil arrives at the place and opens the door. The girl looks at Nihil and says: "Welcome, Mr. Nihil, you've arrived exactly on time." Then Nihil smiles and says: "As I told you, Nino, I would come in the middle of the day, and here I am, haha." Then Nino takes him to the room where Nihil sits, and through his eye ability, which allows him to see the aura of spirits to detect illnesses and many other things, he works. As Nihil speaks to one of the commoners and says: "Don't worry, sir, I will diagnose what's wrong with you." Nihil closes his eyes twice quickly with the intention of activating the ability, and diagnoses his illness to refer him to the nearest doctor. After many hours, specifically 5 hours, Nihil finally finishes, looking exhausted, and Nino comes and says: "We're closing now, Mr. Nihil, and thank you for coming. Come back whenever you want." Nihil smiles at her and exits the shop. Then Nihil says to himself [Very good, I feel that the Ninth Flame within me is becoming stronger, while I feel a strange sensation inside; it seems the acting method is very successful]. Then Nihil heads home...
...And in secret, specifically in the Eternal Demonic Organization where all the servants are girls, the man arrives with the black key and whispers words in the head of the Council President that no one can hear. At the end of the conversation, he tells her: "This is the beginning of summoning one of the gods to manifest and descend into this world. We must hurry with this matter, as the True Death Organization is trying to find the nine books and the black key we have." The lady smiles and laughs as she tears her hands and says: "Alright then." Then the lady produces delicious-looking money from somewhere and gives it to the man, who appears excited and takes the money. Then the lady whispers strange words in his ear and says: "That lady and the child in her womb were conceived through certain rituals, and inside it is one of the books; it's a demi-god child. We must find it." The person smiles maliciously...
...At Nihil's home, Nihil enters to shower in the small bathroom next to the kitchen. Then the Fool speaks, saying: "You've become stronger, Nihil." Nihil smiles and says: "Yes, indeed, I feel that too. I suppose you feel a change in your aura, and this change helps you absorb more things about the golden mist, doesn't it?" Then the Fool speaks and says: "Yes, indeed, and also I feel I can do something new now, not within the shaping ability, but something related to the golden mist itself." Then Nihil says: "Does that require me to let you out or not?" Then the Fool thinks a little and says: "I think not, because it's a side effect of the golden mist." Then Nihil says: "Alright, I don't know what it is, so do it now." Then the Fool thinks a little and says: "Are you sure?" Then Nihil says: "Why do you ask?" The Fool replies: "This effect is a whole world I know nothing about, and we're in the bathroom right now, so it's better for you to put your clothes on first." Nihil is surprised, finishes showering, and puts on some clothes. Then Nihil says: "Activate the effect now." Then the Fool says: "Alright, but I don't think you'll be able to endure it for long." Suddenly, without any preamble, Nihil feels pain in his head while hallucinating long golden rays descending from the sky and piercing his house. Suddenly, Nihil screams and appears in an inverted world, then the world returns to its normal state. Then Nihil opens his eye to see an infinite world of pure golden mist, while the ground shines with gold, containing many worlds beneath that glass-like ground, while black and golden points glimmer amidst the mist. Nihil is greatly surprised and touches two points in the air, one black and one gold. Suddenly, those points extend, explode, and clusters of golden and black lights descend. Suddenly, elsewhere in the middle of the sea, a man with beautiful white hair appears holding a mirror, and then that mirror shatters, and he sees himself inside the world of golden mist. Meanwhile, elsewhere in an ancient kingdom, a girl with beautiful yellow hair appears playing with her pampered dog, then the girl looks at a mirror, the mirror breaks, and the girl enters the world...
...Suddenly, the man, who appears tense, speaks while seeing the illusion of an enormous entity standing in the mist. The girl feels fear, while the white-haired man speaks and says: "Where are we?" [Is this a divine place?!]. Then the girl speaks and says: "Were you pulled here too? The same thing happened to me." While both look at the enormous shadow of Nihil. The man continues and says: "Sir, is this a divine world or what?" The girl looks at the beautiful ground and the transcendent golden mist. Then Nihil speaks and says to himself [How can it be a divine world without even a castle!]. Suddenly, without any preamble, an enormous castle forms from the golden mist, and five chairs appear, with the largest chair for Nihil in the center. Then Nihil is greatly surprised [Thinking transforms the golden mist into anything I desire!]. While the two look at Nihil, whose face they never see while he can see them, and while the girl appears tense, the man speaks and says: "Sir, who are you?" While everyone is silent, Nihil says to himself [I am not Sho, nor Nihil, nor a person from Earth]. Then Nihil speaks in a great voice that echoes throughout the world of golden mist, saying: "I am the Fool..."
...And as the Fool's voice resounds everywhere in the world of golden mist, the man and the girl feel fear and awe of the Fool while the golden mist moves in beautiful patterns in the air. The girl touches it and finds it very soft, strange, and shimmering. Then the girl says: "Sir, is this an experiment?" Then the Fool says: "It's an experiment, yes. If you want to stay here, I will allow it, and if you want to return from where you came, I will bring you back." The Fool says to himself [The Divination ability is much stronger here, and also the white-haired man seems cautious and calm, while that girl seems reckless and impulsive]. Then the girl speaks and says: "I heard there's something called a Transcendent, and I want to be one, but I don't know which Path to choose; there are so many." Then the man looks at her and says to himself [This girl's clothing suggests she's from the upper class; I'll try to trade with her]. Then the man speaks, saying: "I have a potion for the Path of Light, specifically the Sixth Flame." Then the girl speaks and says: "How much do you want for it?" Then the man replies: "You can't use it yet. First, you must become a Transcendent of the Path of Light, the Ninth Flame, then you need to assimilate the potion, and that takes time." Suddenly, the Fool (Nihil) places his finger on the huge table made of solid materials, causing the sound of his finger tapping to echo throughout the world of golden mist. Then the Fool speaks and says: "Not assimilation, but digestion. The more you act according to your identity, the faster the potion digests." The man is greatly surprised and says to himself [Could this Fool be an extremely ancient existence beyond our knowledge?]. Then the man says: "Thank you, Lord Fool, for this extremely useful information." Then Nihil feels dizzy and appears exhausted. Then, while the two are talking, the Fool says: "The meeting ends here." Then the girl speaks: "Shouldn't we take aliases and meet again?" Then Nihil says: "Every Monday at midnight, we will gather again. Now, what aliases do you want?" The man speaks and says: "I am Lord Waves." Then the girl speaks and says: "And I am Lady Flowers." Then the world of golden mist trembles, and Nihil says: "The meeting ends..."
...Then Lord Waves and Lady Flowers reply, saying: "As you wish, Lord Fool." Suddenly, the world of golden mist ends, and everything returns to normal while Nihil falls to the ground, looking extremely exhausted, and says to himself [That was truly amazing, Fool]. Then the Fool laughs from inside Nihil and says: "Yes, indeed. Even though you were the one in control, it was truly amazing. Taking the name Fool to signify transcendence was a wonderful idea. My curiosity to understand this world is at its peak." Nihil smiles and says: "Yes, indeed, that was truly amazing. Now I'm going to sleep; I feel extremely exhausted." Then Nihil goes to bed and closes his eyes. Meanwhile, in secret, a woman screams in a house, pulling her hair forcefully, and says: "My husband has run away!"...
