Chapter One Hundred OneAn Unexpected Clue Howes Street area. The Divination Club. Klein pressed the half-top silk hat on his head and climbed the stairs step by step toward the door. This time, he was not wearing his usual formal suit. Instead, he wore a white shirt and pale waistcoat beneath a thin black windbreaker that reached his knees, adding a few hints of competence and sharpness to his bearing. This set of clothing, convenient for combat, had cost him only one pound, and that included…-

Chapter One HundredInterpreting Symbols “Clues to the Clown potion.” … At the head of the ancient, mottled bronze long table, Klein read the divination statement several times over. Then he leaned back and entered sleep. His surroundings soon became quiet and peaceful. What he “saw” turned ethereal and hazy. Countless distorted, difficult-to-identify scenes flashed past at high speed, like drops of dew trembling on tender petals in the early morning. Gradually, Klein grasped his…

Chapter Ninety-NineRed Chimney That afternoon, after returning home, Klein pulled the curtains closed and left his bedroom in dim light. He searched out paper and pen, thought for a long time, and finally wrote a statement: “Extraordinary factors guided the Elliott kidnapping case.” As a Seer, Klein had actually previously performed divinations on whether those seemingly coincidental matters contained unnatural development. The results had proven that he was overthinking things. This…

Chapter Ninety-EightMr. Azik Faced with his sister’s question, Klein could only smile bitterly. “Muscle soreness.” He had originally assumed that after consuming a Sequence potion and becoming a Beyonder, his physical constitution would improve at least somewhat. But cruel reality informed him that the Seer’s skill points had all been added to spirituality, mind, intuition, and interpretation. They did not help him adapt to combat training any faster. And the original Klein had spent…

Chapter Ninety-SevenCombat Teacher At two in the afternoon, outside an old-fashioned, two-story house in the outskirts of the North Borough, which looked as if it had been in disrepair for years. Wearing a probationary inspector’s police uniform, Klein looked at the garden overgrown with weeds and the walls covered in climbing plants, slightly stunned. He turned his head and said, “My combat teacher lives here?” Someone chosen by the Nighthawk team as an expert in fighting should certainly…

Chapter Ninety-SixDaly’s Guess The next morning, Klein, having fully recovered his condition, walked into Blackthorn Security Company with steady steps. “Good morning, Klein. The weather is wonderfully cool today. I am already looking forward to tonight’s feast.” Rozanne, wearing a pale green dress, stood behind the reception desk and greeted him with a beaming smile. Klein deliberately touched his stomach and said, “Miss Rozanne, you should not discuss such topics at a time like…

Chapter Ninety-FiveThe “Supplicant” “A prayer?” Klein’s spirits lifted. Following the method he had used last time to peer at the Hanged Man, he let his spirituality spread and touch that mass of crimson. A blurry, distorted image immediately appeared before his eyes. He could barely make out a brown-haired boy kneeling on both knees before a pure crystal ball. The boy wore black, close-fitting clothes utterly different from the fashion trends of the Loen Kingdom. They also differed…

Chapter Ninety-FourThe Hidden Sage “The Fallen Creator… Fallen…” The Hanged Man, Alger, tasted the Fool’s words as if falling into thought. Yet what echoed in his heart was the other party’s relaxed, natural, wholly unconcerned attitude. It was an attitude of looking levelly, of standing as an equal! If not for his previous experience with the ritual, Alger might have believed the Fool was merely bluffing—raising Himself up in order to intimidate him and Justice. But now, he…

Chapter Ninety-ThreeA New Diary Above the gray fog, enormous stone pillars supported a grand and majestic temple. Beside the ancient, mottled bronze long table, two masses of crimson suddenly appeared, stretching in a blur into illusory human figures. “Good afternoon, Mr. Fool.” Audrey, who was covered in an added hazy effect, curtsied and smiled lightly. “What a pity that there is no fine wine here. Otherwise, we could raise a toast to your successful experiment.” She was…

Chapter Ninety-TwoThe “Psychological Expert” “Mass hysteria?” Sir Deweyville, who had come into contact with quite a few psychiatrists during this period, chewed over the term Klein had given. His butler, bodyguards, and servants, even though curiosity clearly stirred within them, did not make a sound without his permission. Sergeant Gate, on the other hand, looked toward Klein with puzzlement written across his face, as though he had never heard of such a concept. Klein controlled…
