Lord of the Mysteries Chapter Summary 646-660

Chapter 646 – Leymano’s Spellbook

Fors awaits her teacher, Dorian Gray, outside a steam locomotive station in Backlund, reminiscing about her friend Xio’s remarkable transformation from a pampered lady to a diligent bounty hunter. As she spots Dorian, she notices a subtle warning signal from him, indicating danger, and cleverly diverts her attention elsewhere.

Fors then leads a young gentleman on a wild goose chase, buying time to safely approach her teacher. She rents a room at Hat Trick Inn, where Dorian has reserved a room in advance, and observes the guests from afar. Once Dorian gives her the all-clear signal, Fors meets up with him, expressing concern about the earlier danger.

Dorian reveals that he encountered an old enemy, a former student who betrayed the Abraham family and now works with the Aurora Order. He changes the subject, presenting Fors with the Astrologer potion formula as a reward for her remarkable progress with the Trickmaster and Apprentice potions. Fors proudly shares her recent experience joining a circus, and the two continue their conversation, unaware of the looming threats ahead.

Chapter 647 – Sea of Ruins

Gehrman Sparrow, aka Klein, dons a new attire, surprising Cattleya, who attributes his fashion sense to his prioritization of mystical items and strength over material possessions. As they near their destination, Klein recalls his effective “crazy adventurer” act and plans to digest it further. Meanwhile, a pirate rushes in, carrying a live blue fish, and approaches Heath Doyle, who transforms into a terrifying Rose Bishop, feeding on the fish’s flesh and blood to replenish his Beyonder powers.

Cattleya explains that Rose Bishops require flesh and blood to maintain control, and Klein notes that the Secrets Suppliant pathway is prone to driving its users mad. Just then, the Future jolts, and Klein sees a massive crack in the sea ahead, with infinite seawater plummeting into darkness. The ship hurtles towards the edge, and chaos erupts as pirates and objects are catapulted into the air.

Klein, Nina, and Cattleya react differently to the sudden plunge, showcasing their unique skills and stabilities. Cattleya floats in midair, surrounded by swirling stars, while Bloodless disappears into the shadows. As the Future teeters on the brink of catastrophe, a plume of water suddenly surges up, leaving the fate of the pirates and the ship hanging in the balance.

Chapter 648 – Noon and Night

Klein and the pirates are met with an unsettling panting sound coming from a nearby ruin, prompting Cattleya to order them to steer clear of the area. Heath Doyle, the Rose Bishop, appears particularly affected, fuelling Klein’s concerns about his potential as a latent risk on their voyage. As they distance themselves from the ruins, Klein can’t help but think about the implications of Heath’s abilities and the dangers that lurk in these treacherous waters.

The chaos settles, and Klein is left to focus on more mundane matters – like breakfast. The meal is a humble affair, with Klein devouring his smoked pork sausage and burnt toast in quick succession. As he takes a stroll on the deck, he notices a point of light on the horizon, which gradually reveals itself to be a massive floating island supported by four gigantic diamond columns.

The atmosphere shifts as a blood-curdling screech emanates from the island, followed by the emergence of two golden steeds and a chariot. Cattleya’s amplified voice echoes across the ship, urging everyone to “Look down!” as the pirates of the Future prepare for what promises to be a perilous encounter.

Chapter 649 – Black Cloister

Klein’s thoughts are racing as he realizes the true nature of the dream world: a shared experience where all living creatures’ dreams connect, leaving those who don’t sleep vulnerable to unknown attacks. He gazes upon the magnificent city on the opposite cliff, wondering who could have imagined such an impossible place. Cattleya’s cryptic response sparks his curiosity, and he decides to explore the area, believing that the Future won’t leave these waters anytime soon.

As Klein surveys the area, he notices Cattleya’s peculiar behavior, suspecting that she’s not fully awake in the dream, revealing a more youthful and petulant side of her personality. He tries to persuade her to join him, but she refuses, opting to wait instead. Klein sets off on his own, turning his attention to the black buildings formed from the cloisters, where he encounters a towering wall and a massive door that requires extraordinary strength to open.

With his Zombie abilities, Klein manages to push the door open, revealing a vast grayish-rock square with flaming stacks and huge arrows embedded in the ground. To his surprise, he finds Frank Lee, Nina, Ottolov, and others there, each seemingly lost in their own dreams. Klein approaches Frank, who’s busily digging and using bread, toast, and roasted fish as fertilizer, sparking further questions about the nature of this dream world and its connections to reality.

Chapter 650 – The Unlucky Anderson

Klein analyzes the mural on the wall, recognizing similarities to the one Little Sun saw in the True Creator’s abandoned temple. He surmises that the mural depicts different stages of the same pilgrimage led by Ouroboros, the Angel of Fate, and theorizes that the holy residence of the True Creator might be located in the Forsaken Land of the Gods. This realization fills Klein with a sense of wistfulness and dread, as he fears that the City of Silver is doomed once the True Creator awakens.

As Klein continues to observe the mural, he becomes aware of his own worries, fearing that he might be stuck in an endless cycle of fate created by the Tail Devourer. He resists the urge to seek answers and instead chooses to observe, noting that the symbols on the mural don’t suggest a repeating cycle of fate. Anderson, a treasure hunter, appears, and Klein learns that there are treasures everywhere in these waters, but the risk is high, even for demigods.

Klein’s conversation with Anderson reveals that many adventurers, including Anderson’s companions, have ventured into the hall but never returned. Klein is left with more questions, feeling a sense of unease as he gazes into the dark and ominous depths of the hall, wondering what secrets and dangers lie within.

Chapter 651 – Meeting Again

Klein heaves a sigh of relief after reading Will Auceptin’s warning, realizing he didn’t venture too far into the mysterious hall. He takes note of Will’s advice, deciding to avoid disturbing Anderson and instead focus on finding mermaids, which he’s now more confident about encountering.

Back on the pirate ship, Klein joins the others for a meal, where Frank Lee shares his unusual milk-producing experiment. Klein is both amused and concerned by Frank’s intentions, which seem to align with the Church of Mother Earth’s values. As the pirates discuss their journey, Cattleya announces their plan to dock at a nearby island to wait out a potentially terrifying storm. The crew quickly springs into action, and Klein is reminded of Will’s warning to avoid challenging the storms.

As the Future docks and the storm approaches, Klein reflects on the ominous events unfolding around him. The dimming sky and lead-colored clouds signal the start of the storm, and Klein is left wondering what dangers lie ahead. With the storm brewing and the mysteries of the hall still lingering, Klein’s adventure is far from over.

Chapter 652 – Mermaid Clues

Klein’s encounter with Anderson Hood unfolds as the pirate ship docks at a nearby island, waiting out the approaching storm. Anderson, nicknamed the Strongest Hunter, reveals his true nature as a treasure hunter, and Klein remains vigilant, ready to inject his spirituality if Anderson shows any signs of abnormality. As Anderson shares his story, Klein becomes intrigued by the mysterious temple on a submerged island, where a sinister mural depicted a pilgrimage led by an angel with long silver hair.

Anderson’s account sparks Klein’s interest, particularly when he mentions the angel’s sudden awakening. Cattleya presses for more information, but Anderson’s uncertainty only deepens the mystery. Klein, however, recognizes the angel as Tail Devourer Ouroboros, a King of Angels, revealing a connection to the Tarot Club and the mysterious forces at play.

As Anderson continues his story, the darkness of the storm outside mirrors the ominous tone of his words. The fate of his treasure-hunting team hangs in the balance, and Klein’s disinterest in explaining only adds to the enigma. The storm may be brewing outside, but the true tempest is unfolding in the midst of this treacherous waters, where treasure hunters, mysteries, and ancient powers converge.

Chapter 653 – Black-faced, Black-handed

As the storm brews outside, a towering three-meter-tall figure emerges from the island’s primitive forest – a grayish-white Stone Giant, its body seemingly formed from boulders. Cattleya and the pirates spring into action, bombarding the creature with cannons, but it emerges unscathed, revealing its extremely high defenses. Amidst the chaos, Anderson Hood observes the battle, and Klein’s puzzlement peaks as he wonders why Cattleya wasted cannonballs on the creature.

As the Stone Giant approaches, Anderson inquires about Beyonder powers in the ice and frost domain, and Cattleya responds, revealing her abilities. She unleashes an ancient Hermes spell, encasing the Stone Giant in icy flames, which only slows it down. Anderson then takes center stage, summoning orange-yellow flames that weaken the creature, followed by a blazing spear that delivers a critical strike, shattering the Stone Giant into rubble. Klein realizes that Anderson is a Reaper, Sequence 5 of the Hunter pathway, adept at exploiting weaknesses.

As Anderson searches the carcass, he reveals that the Stone Giant isn’t a true monster, leaving Klein and the others to ponder the implications of this mysterious entity and the enigmatic forces at play. The storm may have passed, but the true tempest is only unfolding, with treasure hunters, mysteries, and ancient powers converging in the heart of this treacherous waters.

Chapter 654 – Prisoner and Guard

Klein, still in his Gehrman Sparrow persona, finds himself in a precarious situation as he’s confronted by a towering figure in black, full-body armor, wielding a broad black sword. The figure exudes an aura of danger, its eyes glowing red in the dark. Klein quickly assesses the situation, using his Clown Beyonder powers to control his muscles and sneak past the figure, avoiding detection. He makes his way through the corridors, searching for an exit, but instead finds himself in a junk-filled hall.

As Klein navigates the hall, he discovers a black wooden door, which leads to a storage room. Inside, he encounters a man named Leomaster, an ascetic from a mysterious religious organization. Leomaster’s worn, weathered face and ancient robe hint at a complex past, while his black hair and eyes sparkle with an otherworldly intensity. The air is thick with tension as Leomaster warns Klein of a devil that must be avoided, his very mention of it sending his face into a twisted grimace.

Klein’s intrigue is piqued as he senses the mystery surrounding Leomaster and the ominous presence lurking in the shadows. With the black-armored figure still on the prowl, Klein must decide whether to trust Leomaster, or forge his own path, using his Clown powers to stay one step ahead of the danger that seems to be closing in.

Chapter 655 – Dream Analysis

Klein’s encounter with Leomaster takes a drastic turn as the black-armored knight, identical to Leomaster, appears and charges at him with a broadsword. Klein instinctively raises the Sea God Scepter, conjuring a corporeal hurricane that protects him from the attack. The intense collision shakes the dream, causing Klein to awaken in his bed, realizing that the intense struggle in the dream forced him to wake up. He quickly falls back asleep, entering the dream world once more.

Upon re-entering the dream, Klein finds himself in a completely new environment – a library filled with books and tables. He cautiously observes his surroundings, ensuring it’s temporarily safe from any threats. Holding the Sea God Scepter, he approaches the floor-to-ceiling window and gazes outside, marveling at the breathtaking scenery of opulent buildings, steeples, and city walls. He then turns his attention to the cliff, spotting the high walls of the black cloister, but unable to confirm Cattleya’s presence.

As Klein delves deeper into the dream world, he begins to uncover more questions. Is the cathedral in the fog a source of danger? Are the missing people connected to this mysterious place? With the Sea God Scepter by his side, Klein is determined to explore this enigmatic world, but the Saint of Darkness and other unknown threats still lurk in the shadows, waiting to strike.

Chapter 656 – Crazy Mutations

Klein’s encounter with the mysterious eyes in the dream world has led him to suspect a stowaway on the ship, possibly connected to the cathedral in the fog. Anderson Hood’s description of the person who opened the door in the hall of murals sparks Klein’s speculation about the individual’s identity and abilities. However, Anderson’s carefree attitude and tendency to attract monsters only add to Klein’s frustration, prompting him to cut off the conversation.

As Anderson continues to reveal his lack of bad luck since escaping the ship-sinking crisis, Klein becomes increasingly annoyed, realizing that the probability of incidents increases with Anderson on board. This spurs Klein to prepare for potential dangers, summoning his own Beyonder characteristics and preparing his equipped inventory. Meanwhile, Frank Lee’s experiments have led to a shocking revelation: the tiny creatures have finished a large-scale reproduction stage and have even mutated, seemingly reconstructing the Future.

The chapter ends with a bizarre and unscientific twist as the ship’s cannons and deck begin spewing milk, leaving Klein and Anderson stunned. With tensions rising and the mysteries deepening, Klein must now navigate the unpredictable world of the dream and the unsettling events unfolding on the ship.

Chapter 657 – Terrifying Vitality

The grayish-black colossal monster, an amalgamation of countless corpses, rises from the depths, its massive hands grasping the ship as a putrid, yellowish-green gas spreads, causing the sailors to cough violently. Frank Lee attempts to use his Beyonder powers to counter the threat, but Cattleya intervenes, warning him that his abilities may mutate in this area. She takes charge, using her powers to create a resplendent sea of stars on the ship, keeping the gas at bay.

As the monster holds the ship in place, the sailors struggle to escape, but the ship lacks a backup steam engine system, and flying with starlight would be too draining on Cattleya. Klein, meanwhile, prepares for battle, planning to wear Tinder and reserve Creeping Hunger for more dire situations. He takes stock of his inventory, knowing that the charms from the Sea God domain are highly disposable.

The monster continues its assault, causing the sailors’ hair to grow wildly and bind them, while the ship’s starlight protection begins to falter. Cattleya uses ancient incantations and scrolls to attack the monster, but it remains relentless, slamming its massive palm against the ship, sending sparks flying as the vessel trembles.

Chapter 658 – 55,000 Pounds

As the grayish-black monster continues to wreak havoc on the Future, Anderson senses the approaching Black Tulip, flagship of the notorious pirate Admiral Hell Ludwell, infamous for his indiscriminate killing and powerful undead minions. Klein learns that Ludwell’s bounty reaches 55,000 pounds, making him one of the most feared pirates on the seas. Meanwhile, Cattleya’s golden brooch creates a Sun Wraith that cancels out the monster’s flesh, buying time for the crew.

Bloodless Heath Doyle protects the sailors by devouring and digesting the monster’s flesh, while Klein hesitates to fire at a ghostly eye belonging to a Spirit Medium, potentially linked to Ludwell. The eye vanishes, and the Black Tulip draws closer, its crew of undead creatures and spirit world entities visible to Klein’s Spirit Vision.

Admiral Hell Ludwell, shrouded in mystery and intimidation, stands alone on the deck, his silver mask and cold demeanor exuding an aura of dread. With the pirate’s true intentions unclear, Klein and the crew must navigate this perilous encounter, wary of being caught in the crossfire between Ludwell and the monster.

Chapter 659 – This Beyonder Power is Very Powerful

As Anderson Hood gazes out at the undead army retreating towards the Black Tulip, he witnesses Gehrman Sparrow descending from the sky, landing opposite Admiral Hell Ludwell. The scene is bathed in dark red and gloomy green hues, with an eerie sense of beauty emanating from the wraiths, shadows, and spirit world creatures. Meanwhile, Klein stands on the Black Tulip, his eyes locked onto Ludwell, his expression calm but his heart racing with anxiety.

Anderson realizes that Gehrman Sparrow has thrown a charm in front of him, and Klein prays for Anderson to fly over with the charm, aware that he may not be able to handle Ludwell alone. Klein hesitates to use the Sea God Scepter, wary of exposing his true abilities and the mysterious eyes observing the deck. As he weighs his options, he decides to overwhelm Ludwell with numbers, using his Beyonder powers and charms to fight the notorious pirate admiral.

The battle begins as Klein summons the Fog of Poison, but Ludwell retaliates with a mysterious bronze door that unleashes a terrifying suction force, threatening to pull everything towards it. Klein uses Baron of Corruption’s Distortion to redirect the force, substituting the skeletons and zombies on the Black Tulip for himself, but he’s still affected by the remnants of the suction force, limiting his agility. As the fight intensifies, Admiral Hell Ludwell extends his spectral arm, grabbing for Klein with an unsettling intensity.

Chapter 660 – Behind the Mask

Klein unleashes a barrage of incomprehensible words, calming the hurricane-like suction force produced by the bronze door and revealing that Admiral Hell Ludwell’s Beyonder power is the Language of the Dead, capable of targeting one’s Spirit Body. As Ludwell freezes, his spirit is tugged at by an illusory power, but he quickly regains control and charges at Klein with his iron-black rapier. Klein, however, summons a handful of charms from the Sea God domain and uses them to counterattack, producing blue wind blades and heavy waves that inundate Ludwell.

The battle rages on as Ludwell opens his mouth and produces a silent screech, temporarily freezing the wind blades, and then raises his left hand, causing the black, square-shaped ring on his index finger to glow with an eerie light. The bronze door swells in response, increasing its suction force to an unimaginable level. Klein attempts to clash with the door using Light of Holiness, but a white fireball interrupts his plan, and he’s forced to improvise, using scarlet flames to escape and reposition himself.

Just as Klein regains his footing, Anderson Hood arrives, floating awkwardly in mid-air with a burning-white spear in hand. Ludwell’s reaction is one of surprise, and he responds by removing his silver mask, unleashing a heavy, pale-white light that lifts the bronze door off the deck and into the air. The door grows to over thirty meters tall, becoming an imposing entrance to another world, leaving Klein and Anderson to face this new, intensified threat.
