Chapter 12: A Taste of Murloc The red moon hung high above. Klein walked over to Donna and Denton and crouched beside the siblings. Cleeves’s female companion, Cecile, clearly let out a breath of relief. She picked up the rifle on the deck, bent halfway down, and quickly moved in another direction, still keeping more than ten meters between herself and the pig and cattle organs sprinkled with peppercorns. “Uncle, is it about to begin…” Donna, the girl with playful freckles, suddenly became…-

Chapter 11: Hunting “Honorable Arrodes, my second question is: how did Sherlock Moriarty escape from the ruin?” Ikanser’s mood was considerably lighter than before. A faint glow flickered across the surface of the silver mirror, swiftly sketching out the image of Sherlock Moriarty with his back against a wall, his fists sometimes loosening, sometimes clenching tight. Then Ikanser Bernard and the nearby deacons and captains of the Machinery Hivemind saw the private detective reveal an…

Chapter 10: Adventurer Klein had only just stepped onto the deck and had not yet entered the cabin when, from the corner of his eye, he saw a figure pass through the crowd and walk toward him. Outwardly, he appeared casual, but inwardly, he was alert as he turned his head to look. He discovered that it was a man in his thirties wearing a black half top hat and a long coat of the same color. The man had a face weathered by wind and frost, rugged yet distinctly masculine. His pale-blue eyes held no…

Chapter 9: Sherlock Moriarty in the Investigation Report Leonard? For a moment, Klein almost thought he had seen wrong. Yet the light had not blurred the scene too badly, and because he was familiar with the other man, he quickly confirmed his earlier judgment. In the space of a single breath, Leonard vanished. The light scattered, and the river valley returned to the quiet of deep winter. The scene Klein had seen in his dream shattered with it. He opened his eyes and placed the badge he had…

Chapter 8: Advice from a Former Sailor The hall of the Pritz Harbor Ticketing Company was quite spacious, with a full seven ticket windows, yet more than a dozen or even twenty people were already lined up before each one. Klein glanced around. Instead of heading directly to the line with relatively fewer people, he took two steps to the right and arrived before a brown wooden board standing perfectly upright. Sheets of white paper had been pasted onto the board in sequence, announcing all…

Chapter 7: A Stranded Proposal After they exchanged information for a while longer, The Sun Derrick suddenly came up with a question. “Honorable Mr. Fool, what gesture should we use when we thank you in ordinary times?” A gesture? For a moment, Klein was actually stumped by Little Sun. He had never thought of imitating the Church of the Goddess, which tapped clockwise four times to draw a circle, or the Church of Storms, which struck the left chest with the right fist, and designing a…

Chapter 6: Living Expenses Reserve the mystical item? The Hanged Man Alger was stunned for a second before he reacted to what Miss Justice was saying. The limits of his thinking were immediately opened, and he sensed room for this matter to be used to his advantage. “In a certain sense, the Beyonder characteristic commissioned by The World has already been sold. The item has a definite destination… I can completely simplify the process, making things easier and more favorable for myself. In…

Chapter 5: The Growing Tarot Club Under the scrutiny of one gaze after another, The Moon Emlyn immediately felt somewhat at a loss. Vaguely, he realized that he seemed to have asked a question he perhaps should not have. Why are they all looking at me? Am I not allowed to have a Blood Clan friend? Should I explain a little… No, what is wrong with the Blood Clan? I am Blood Clan. There is nothing shameful about admitting it! We Blood Clan possess an ancient history, long lives, and deep…

Chapter 4: Klein’s Speculation The Moon Emlyn was just as bewildered. “Redemption Rose,” “Angel of Fate,” “breaking the cycle”—all of it lay outside the scope of his knowledge. He felt that he could understand every single word, but when they were strung together, he had no idea what they meant. Could it be that The Sun, who looks rather young, has just escaped the pursuit of an angel? Emlyn pieced together a guess from the small portion he could understand. After The Sun Derrick…

Chapter 3: Abundant Information Hermes? That was a powerhouse from antiquity… Klein’s brow moved almost imperceptibly as he read. With his solid foundation in mysticism, he knew very well just what era the old gentleman who had created ancient Hermes had been active in. That was the Second Epoch, when giants ruled the earth and dragons soared through the skies. In a certain sense, he appeared in human history even earlier than the God of Combat or the Earth Mother. To put it another way,…
