Chapter 52: Dream Classroom Danitz’s worry did not become reality. Klein merely glanced at him, then entered the bedroom to rest. During the five hours aboard the passenger ship, his mind had remained highly tense. The night before, he had been disturbed and had not slept well. At this point, fatigue was inevitable. With a clang, Klein shut the bedroom door. Whew… That scared me to death! Danitz’s whole body relaxed at once, and he collapsed into the armchair. Just now, scene after…-

Chapter 51: Mr. 4,200 Pounds “There is danger within the inn.” Klein murmured the divination statement, entered a meditative state, and flicked the gold coin upward. Clink! A faint yet clear sound echoed through the quiet room. The coin tumbled down and landed in Klein’s palm. This time, the number side faced upward, indicating a negative answer. No danger… Klein frowned and examined his surroundings, then took a bottle of essential oil with insect-repelling effects from the coat…

Chapter 50: The “Foreign” Master Turning onto one of the two main streets, Klein, now bearing a different face, headed straight for the green mailbox and took out a letter he had prepared long ago. It was a “death notice” he had written by imitating the format of a police document. Its recipient was the sheriff of Simim’s harbor town. Its contents stated that local resident Winter had died suddenly of illness in Bayam. When deciding to carry out this acting attempt, Klein had already…

Chapter 49: Acting Specialist Some matters to ask the captain? Danitz frowned as he watched Gehrman Sparrow leave the room, unable to tell what the other man’s true purpose was. “What exactly is that fellow pursuing? Money? Wealth? But he had all the time and opportunity he needed to take Steel Maviti and Bloodthorn Huntley’s heads and exchange them for nearly ten thousand pounds in bounty. Even after deductions, that would still be seven or eight thousand pounds. Yet he did not do it. He…

Chapter 48: Archival Materials Beside the long bronze table, the Nightmare appeared. He was a man who looked to be in his thirties, with black hair, blue eyes, a long, thin face, pronounced lines beside his nose, and a not particularly dense beard covering the area around his mouth and chin. As the pain and distortion that could be directly sensed from him eased, he pressed a hand to his chest and solemnly bowed. Compared to the Faceless from before, this Nightmare was clearly less muddled and…

Chapter 47: Tacit Understanding Outside the Azure Wind Inn at 48 Sour Lemon Street. Dressed in a thick jacket and wide-legged trousers, Blazing Danitz returned by a roundabout route and pressed himself against a corner of the wall. For a long time, he did not move a step. He hesitated over whether he should seize this chance to flee and no longer face that terrifying madman, Gehrman Sparrow. Unlike the encounter at Bansy Harbor, this time he had hidden on a rooftop some distance away and had been…

Chapter 46: Grazing At dawn, the sky faintly brightened. In the alley beside the wall, most of what remained was quiet, motionless gloom. Using Danitz’s cloak, Klein merged into the shadows and swiftly traveled through them. He only felt the surroundings turn gray-black and transparent, reality detached and blurred, while all sounds seemed to come from the depths of the starry sky, empty and distant. After moving as far as possible from Fragrant Tree Avenue, he identified his location, then…

Chapter 45: A Swift Battle The instant Klein leaped out from within the flames, the golden glove on his left hand gleaming faintly, two points of light in his eyes swelled from small to large, from dim to bright, like lightning suddenly tearing across the sky. After using a Paper Figurine Substitute to draw the attention of Steel Maviti’s group, he had already activated Creeping Hunger and switched to the soul of the Interrogator, preparing to use the Beyonder ability Mental…

Chapter 44: Eternal Dream The Rorsted Archipelago was the Kingdom of Loen’s governing foothold in the Central Sonia Sea, and likewise a key diocese of the Church of Storms. A high-ranking deacon qualified to participate in the Cardinals’ Council had long been stationed there. Of course, not every pirate at the admiral level could alarm such a great figure, let alone so-called second mates and boatswains. Deacon Cordova Royer accepted the mission happily, led two teams of Mandated Punishers, and…

Chapter 43: Calm Scour Raising his head to glance at the wall clock and seeing that it was already past eight, Alger set down the thick glass mug in his hand, squeezed through the drunkards moving back and forth, and stepped out onto the street. Because the Rorsted Archipelago possessed abundant coal resources, Bayam, like continental cities such as Backlund and Pritz Harbor, had black gas lamp posts as tall as a person standing by the roadside. The light of burning gas shone through metal grilles,…
