Chapter Text
Soon after getting together with Grisha, Zhou Mingrui decided To hold His Apotheosis Ritual a time when His humanity is strongest. He went to a place that was most discreet in the world a nameless peak that seemed to have been swallowed by darkness this was The Former nation of darkness and Night and residence of Demonic wolfs.
She really 'cleaned' this place up Zhou Mingrui watched the desolated plane no living being was in sight He decided to use this former Divine kingdom for His Apotheosis Ritual This place would let Him make a simple Connection with the outside world and His moment will be hidden Behind the veil of Concealment even if someone wants to stop Him by the time They will realise what is happening it would have been too late.
He went inside to where the power of darkness was most active He took out The Fool's Uniqueness and placed it upon His face The Mask squirmed as if trying to outline His facial characteristics.
Pressing the Fool Uniqueness against his face, Zhou Mingrui's vision was suddenly shrouded by a thick greyish white fog, the Fog of History itself that had been realised around Him displaying events of the time, having long since passed, as well as those of a time having yet to take place.
Immediately, Zhou Mingrui felt His body disassociate into innumerable worms of spirits, instantly curling around the illusory faceless mask that had begun to fluctuate, constantly shifting with respect to the outline of his face. On the other hand, His consciousness and sense of self he carried was stretched within the fog of history, extending from a time beyond the first epoch, as well as the 5th epoch that have yet to take place.
Under such extreme contraction and expansion of His very mind, Zhou Mingrui felt himself reaching a state of disarray unable to distinguish fake and real, form coherent thoughts or make sense of anything. His mind was being split apart over and over, causing His body, the cluster of maggots surrounding the fluctuating mask to tremble.
The Fog of History began to ripple, as Zhou Mingrui reached a state similar to when He was advancing to the Sequence 1: Attendant of Mysteries. His thoughts as well as His sense of self was completely dispersed, eventually stretching beyond the boundaries of the Fog of History, spreading outwards.
It continued to extend, soon enveloping the Spirit world, a portion of the astral world and even the real world!
However except The spirit world Where it was most chaotic no other place showed much abnormality this was the reason He had chosen this place all His moment had been hidden from The World and the Praying eyes of gods and Cosmos.
The spears of light illuminated The fog of History, The Sphere of light shined brighter casting its glow onto every inch of the Fog of History, the river of fate, the fleeting time, highlighting various fragments of light, twisting and distorting, represent a conflict that stemmed from the very existence of Klein Moretti & Zhou Mingrui.
Zhou Mingrui did not belong to this era, to this time. He was someone that had transmigrated in the Fifth Epoch, living a separate life, coursing through a journey, all while striving towards a pre determined fate, He so wished to escape. This was true, it had happened, there was a corresponding section of it in the Fog of History.
Here lies the problem. This was the Second Epoch! The Fog of History highlighting 'Klein's' journey belonged to that of the Fifth Epoch, a time that has yet to take place in this world Yet, a corresponding Fog of History of it already existed.
Not only that, there were many conflicts within the River of Fate! Zhou Mingrui, at His birth, was supposed to be accompanied with a black curtain, the Sequence 9 to 1 Beyonder Characteristics of Seer pathway, a fate that was supposed to take place in the Fifth Epoch.
But it could never come to fruition, as not only did the curtain disappear from Sefirah Castle, the cocoon of light holding the spirit of Zhou Minguri, had broken early due to the sudden existence of Klein Moretti—Zhou Minguri himself.
But the fate that was tied to Him, had taken place. The Sequence 9 to 1 Beyonder Characteristics that were supposed to accompany his birth, had done so, as when this version of Zhou Minguri was released from Sefirah Castle, He had merged with what would have been the future version of Himself, that also possessed with Him the Sequence 9 to 1 Beyonder Characteristics from the Curtain.
In a twisted and unforeseeable way, Klein's fate had taken place, a destiny that was realised. At the same time, this wasn't the case as the curtain had simply disappeared from this world! A Contradiction.
The fleeting time too had many contradictions within itself. In fact, it had grown a separate branch, a new future and timeline that should never have existed in the first place.
When all these conflicts within the Fog of History, the River of Fate and the Fleeting time were realised, a "Fooling" was achieved!
All, History, Fate, and Time were Fooled!
With the Fooling effect now achieved, the various fragments of light existing in disharmony, gathered together, forming a spectrum, allowing Zhou Mingrui, whose psyche had been imbued in everything, to gain an aspect of self awareness!.
The featureless Mask that had been squirming till now stop It slowly masked out Klein moretti's Zhou Mingrui's face His face now had a strange Bizarreness to it, It appeared normal albeit Handsome with Refined features it was pale like a porcelain doll making Him seem less human and more something Bizarre and abstract.
The various creatures that roamed the planet suddenly stopped, their expression a daze, as they stood motionless at their spot. This happened all around the world, and to every living and non living creature within it.
In the vast Astral World, Grisha smiled witnessing the projecting Sefirah Castle and the effects of the "Fools Authority". "He" suddenly chuckled, landing "His" gaze onto the nameless peak shrouded in thick greyish fog and remnants from the concealment, while silently ruminating to himself.
You really weren't joking when you said, "My Very Existence is equivalent to Fooling History, Fate and Time."
The Fool was Born!
