Chapter 82: Knowledge Pursues As Klein’s spirituality made contact, the swelling and contracting crimson star displayed the images and sounds it contained. A black-haired woman in a classical robe lay on the floor, writhing in pain and distortion. In one hand she clutched what appeared to be an ordinary astrolabe. In the other she tightly gripped a short scepter less than a forearm long. Her intense desire to survive nearly broke through the crimson star’s restraint and entered Klein’s ears…-

Chapter 81: The Fool’s “Blessing” “As long as we confirm her whereabouts, we can obtain one thousand pounds! This is the first time I have encountered a commission like this!” Outside the Fragrant Tree Leaf Bar, Danitz rubbed his hands together with visible excitement. Then he clenched a fist and struck the man-height iron-black gas lamp pole beside him, as though he wished he could immediately roam the entire city and find that red-haired woman named Elaine. To him, one thousand pounds was…

Chapter 80: Elaine A Beyonder gathering? Klein thought briefly, then nodded in response. “Sure.” The supplementary ingredients for the Marionettist potion should be put on the agenda. I can also see whether I might encounter an Artisan… he subconsciously planned inwardly. Seeing Gehrman Sparrow agree, Danitz quietly breathed out and could not help revealing a smile. In the past few days, because his bounty had been raised by a large amount and because he had the important task of…

Chapter 79: Recruitment Fair That was way too fast… Could it already have circled the planet several times? Or has it been standing in place all along, just moving so quickly that my eyes cannot keep up at all… The corner of Klein’s mouth twitched slightly. He decided to wait a few seconds and see whether that “speedster beyond imagination” would appear again. He was not worried that the spirit-world creature he had summoned would harm innocent people, because one of the descriptions was…

Chapter 78: The Hanged Man Gets Fleeced Above the gray fog, Klein sat down while removing the Black Emperor card that had fused with his spirit body, instantly returning to his original appearance. This is what you call one-click outfit change… He mocked himself inwardly while savoring what had just happened. He was almost certain that the “giant” wearing the spired crown was the King of the Five Seas, Nast, and that the hundred-meter sailing ship capable of navigating the spirit world was…

Chapter 77: A Chance Encounter Having formed an idea, Klein immediately planned to make a few preparations. He would first explore the spirit world and choose a suitable candidate to become his messenger. Then, once he left the Rorsted Archipelago and the nearby waters, he would carry the Sea God Scepter over, reason with the target, and persuade it to become his messenger. If I get lost, or encounter danger, I can immediately end the summoning and return above the gray fog. That means there is…

Chapter 76: Searching for Anomalies Klein neither answered yes nor no. Stopping on his way toward the bedroom, he said flatly, “That was a question.” “Yes, yes, a question! A completely baseless, slanderous question! And I gave a negative answer.” Danitz responded in delight, placing heavy emphasis on the fact that he had never admitted anything. Klein nodded lightly. “I will clarify it to your captain.” Clarify… Danitz first froze, then opened his mouth halfway, his expression…

Chapter 75: Self-Suggestion East Chester County, inside a manor belonging to the Hall family. Audrey sat before her dressing table and lit a candle. Then, through the faintly swaying flame, she looked at herself in the mirror. Her emerald eyes gradually grew deep and secluded, making it difficult to look away, as though even one’s soul might sink into them. “Audrey, remain lucid in your dream tonight,” she said softly to herself in her beautiful voice. This was a simple form of…

Chapter 74: Different Treatment Question? This strange wireless telegraph receiver is rather interesting… Danitz cleared his throat and said, “You may ask, but I may not answer.” Heh, do you think I am the sort of adventurer or archaeologist who lets curiosity kill him? Danitz thought, both wary and smug. The wireless telegraph receiver remained silent for several seconds before it once again produced tapping sounds. Illusory white paper emerged section by section, covered with words tinged…

Chapter 73: A Late-Night “Signal” East Chester County in January was still very cold. Accumulated snow could often be seen. Within the woods, branches were withered, leaves had fallen, wild beasts hid away, and there was not the slightest hint of vitality. Audrey led Susie, surrounded by attendants and maids, around the collapsed ancient tower several times, but discovered nothing. All that existed there were piles of gray bricks and stones, along with rotting timber. In the gaps between them,…
