Regardless of the reason why Medici did not expose the script, it was undoubtedly a favorable turn of events for Lynn.
"You arrived quite early..." Lynn's divine incarnation arranged his thoughts and muttered softly, while his mind began to consider the next steps in the script.
This meeting between Medici and Klein was not part of Lynn's original plan, but it wasn't something he couldn't accept.
After all, Lynn hadn't initially disclosed Klein's information to Medici because, at that time, Lynn didn't fully trust Medici of this era. However, as time passed, the bond between the two brothers had strengthened significantly. Lynn was no longer worried that Medici would harm Klein.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have shared his true address with Medici, confident that Medici was no longer a threat.
Therefore, for Lynn, this encounter between Klein and Medici was an unexpected turn of events, but not necessarily a bad one.
'After all... they were bound to meet sooner or later.' With that in mind, Lynn's divine incarnation couldn't help but smile slightly as he looked at Medici and said, "What, the mighty Angel of War can't even bear a few words of discussion?"
"Hmph!" Medici sneered, annoyed. "If I couldn't, I would have acted long before you arrived."
Lynn's divine incarnation let out a small laugh at Medici's words before turning to Klein. At that moment, Klein was observing them with a slightly curious gaze, clearly wondering either about the dynamic between the Angel of War and the Angel of Secrets, or pondering who the "little raven" Medici mentioned earlier was.
However, probably out of consideration for Medici's presence, Mr. Fool did not directly ask.
Since Klein didn't ask, Lynn didn't mind providing an answer. The Angel of Secrets spoke unhurriedly, "Do you remember? Bethel once told you about the King of Angels of the Marauder Pathway, the one you should be most wary of on your future path."
Klein was momentarily stunned, then his expression grew solemn, followed by a subtle, almost imperceptible smile. "So the little raven is Amon?"
Klein was certainly aware of Amon, not only because of the fragmented history from the Fourth Epoch but also because, ever since he became Mr. Door's student, Mr. Door had taken precautions to prevent Klein, his promising student, from meeting an early demise. Besides the regular lessons in mysticism, Mr. Door had also highlighted the dangerous individuals among the Three Families.
Among them, he had specifically warned about a certain Angel of Time, Amon, emphasizing how sinister, powerful, mysterious, and intelligent this ancient King of Angels was.
Although Klein was not yet aware of the true nature of the battle for the Lord of Mysteries, he at least understood the enmity between those of the same or adjacent pathways.
Thus, while Klein hadn't met Amon, he had already developed a conditioned reflex of vigilance toward anything related to the Angel of Time.
However... Klein couldn't help but glance at the Angel of Secrets, recalling some classic examples Bethel had shared with him, and the expression of mixed relief, nostalgia, and even a hint of pity on Bethel's face when he spoke of these incidents. 'Amon was indeed terrifying, but if Lynn had his sights set on Amon... it was hard to say who would end up worse off.'
"Yes, that's him. I haven't seen him in a long time, so I wanted to catch up," the Angel of Secrets replied with a gentle smile, as if reminiscing about something pleasant. "Mainly, I wanted to ask if he would consider parting with Tiny Amon."
A question mark slowly rose in Klein's mind, and he couldn't help but ask, "What is Tiny Amon?"
Due to the recent update, Mr. Door hadn't yet told Klein about this.
"Just one of Amon's avatars, but it's rather cute," the Angel of Secrets explained, gesturing with his hands. "About this big, roughly the size of a hamster. I'm currently raising it, so I wanted to ask Amon if he could give me this avatar..."
Of course, the main goal was to provoke Amon.
'After all, being kept in a cage, even as an avatar, should be a novel experience for Amon, right?' Lynn silently added to himself.
Upon hearing this, Azik, who was already aware of the situation, showed a slightly peculiar expression, while the others reacted with varying degrees of surprise.
"Tsk, is that what you were up to over there?" Medici raised an eyebrow. He was aware that Lynn had caused some significant events in the Trunsoest Empire during the Fourth Epoch, but he wasn't clear on the details—Medici had been busy with the True Creator's Church matters at the time and hadn't had the chance to keep tabs on Lynn's escapades.
Now, knowing that Lynn had actually captured an Amon in the Trunsoest Empire and was raising it, Medici couldn't help but feel a pang of regret.
Why hadn't he been there to witness the spectacle?
—Undoubtedly, under the guidance of a certain mischievous brother, a certain Angel of War had also begun to develop a tendency toward mischief.
"Amon in a cage... does he need to use the bathroom?" Klein, nearly floored by this revelation, managed to squeeze out the question after a long pause. Only after saying it did he realize his focus might have been off, but it was too late to take the words back.
"Hahaha..." Medici was initially stunned by Klein's question, then burst into loud, unabashed laughter filled with mockery.
Lynn was also momentarily taken aback by Mr. Fool's oddly-timed question. After a brief contemplation, the Angel of Secrets seriously explained, "Theoretically, Amon no longer has those physiological needs, but if he insists, I wouldn't mind customizing a personal little restroom for him."
Klein's expression became increasingly difficult to describe. After thinking for a while, he commented, "Then you're quite considerate, aren't you..."
"I've always been a good person," Lynn replied, lying through his teeth with a straight face. Then, he laughed, looking at Klein, who seemed to be feeling a bit sympathetic toward Amon, and said meaningfully, "Sherlock, others in this world might sympathize with Amon, but you have no reason to."
