Chapter Sixty-FiveBeyonder Information Holding the document signed by Dunn, Klein went underground and turned into the armory. “Dunn is right. It is time for you to learn about different Beyonders and various secret organizations.” Old Neil, dressed in his classical black robe, showed no surprise upon seeing the note. On the contrary, he solemnly agreed. Immediately afterward, he added with a smile, “After all, tomorrow night you will be going to the underground market with…-

Chapter Sixty-FourInstigator After giving instructions to Susie, the large golden retriever, Audrey paced back and forth several times. She still did not feel entirely at ease, because she had no idea whether today’s ritual magic would produce anything strange. “How about this…” Her gaze grew still. With the attitude of a Spectator, she examined the process she had imagined and quickly made a new arrangement. Audrey locked the bedroom door from the inside and said to the golden…

Chapter Sixty-ThreeInterpreting Dreams After walking several steps, Klein saw the customer who had come for a divination. He wore a black formal suit, held a gold-inlaid wooden cane, and had a half-top hat on his head. Short blond hair stubbornly emerged from beneath its brim, and the tip of his nose curved faintly, like the beak of a hawk. Anna’s fiancé… Joyce Meyer, the man who experienced terrible ordeals… Having seen the other man during dream divination, Klein immediately smiled and…

Chapter Sixty-TwoThe “Seer’s” Advice Before leaving, Klein seized the time to clean his formal suit and hat with meticulous care, using a small brush and a handkerchief. Then he changed out of his white shirt, put on a linen one of the same color, matched it with his only decent, inexpensive coat from before, and hurried into the street. First Melissa’s dress, then Benson’s formal suit, and only after that can I consider a second set for myself. Money is never enough… Besides, we need to…

Chapter Sixty-OneA Strange Symbol “The Fool that does not belong to this era… the mysterious ruler above the gray fog… the King of Yellow and Black who wields good luck…” Audrey Hall silently repeated those three descriptions. In her heart, a storm rose violently, and she could no longer maintain the Spectator state. As a lover of mysticism, before being pulled into this gray-fog space, she had never formally come into contact with extraordinary power. Yet during private gatherings with…

Chapter SixtyThe Second Blasphemy Slate “No problem.” Klein did his best to keep his voice deep and unchanged. He rested his left elbow against the armrest of the high-backed chair, using his fingers to support his slightly tilted forehead with no great force, assuming the posture of someone calmly listening. Alger considered his wording for a moment before saying, “Antigonus is an ancient family. Their history can even be traced back to the Cataclysm Epoch before the Fourth Epoch. They…

Chapter Fifty-NineRoselle’s Beginning Hearing the Fool’s question, Audrey did not answer immediately as she had in the past. Instead, she opened her crystal-clear eyes and looked at the Hanged Man with an assessing gaze. Alger unconsciously restrained his body movements. After several seconds of silence, he said, “I found two pages of Emperor Roselle’s diary and memorized their contents.” “I have one page,” Audrey answered in a tone of observation, her gaze separated from his by the…

Chapter Fifty-EightAn Idea The next day, Monday morning. Klein, who was on rotation and had the day off, did not go out. Instead, he handed the letter written to his mentor, Cohen Quentin, along with more than enough postage, to Melissa, asking his sister to mail it at the post office near Tingen Technical School. After breakfast, he leisurely made up for the sleep he had missed during his days of “work.” It was almost noon, and only when his stomach began to growl did he finally get out of…

Chapter Fifty-SevenSorting and Summarizing After pausing briefly, Klein continued writing: “The essence of solving the potion problem is digestion, not mastery. This can be understood intuitively. “Mastery treats the potion’s power as an external tool, a tamed beast. No matter how well or skillfully one masters it, it still does not truly belong to oneself, and the risk of backlash remains high. Digestion treats the potion one has drunk as part of oneself: breaking it down, merging with it,…

Chapter Fifty-SixA Battle Royale at Sea Inside the fairly spacious living room, Anna and Joyce, having ended their embrace, sat down on separate sofas, with Anna’s parents between them. Joyce sighed with visible satisfaction. “Steam above, how fortunate I am to have returned alive, and to see Anna again.” “My poor Joyce, what exactly happened to you?” Anna could no longer restrain herself and asked with concern. Joyce glanced at his fiancée. His expression grew heavy. “Even…
