Chapter 2: Asymmetry Recalling the major events that had happened recently, The Moon Emlyn quickly locked onto the outbreak of the great smog and the plague. He guessed that the young lady across from him was referring to that. But I heard it was caused by a Demoness of Despair seeking advancement… And besides, the Church of Storms responded very quickly, creating a hurricane that dispersed everything. How can that be called Mr. Fool saving Backlund? With his race as a source of support, Emlyn was…-

Chapter 1: A New Identity Beyond the window, the sky was dim and overcast, yet it lacked the fog Klein knew so well. Waves rolled in one after another, scattering every trace of haze, leaving the clouds high above to coil and unfurl into all manner of shapes as they reflected the golden-red sunlight. This was Pritz Harbor, the largest and busiest port in the Kingdom of Loen. Dressed in a pale waistcoat and a white shirt, Klein stood by the window and gazed outside for a while. Only when his pocket…-

Emlyn White, wearing a priest’s robe, stood in the kitchen. From time to time, he tossed different herbs into a large iron pot, supplementing the process with a certain amount of stirring. After all the materials prepared in advance had been added, he patiently waited another ten minutes before using an iron ladle to scoop up the inky-black liquid…-

Chapter 268: Numbers and People Inside a small town on the outskirts of Backlund. After changing into clean, dry clothes, Klein placed his soaked banknotes one by one across the surface of the table, waiting for them to dry naturally in the warm room. Throughout the process, his movements were extremely cautious and gentle. He even forcibly suppressed the sneezing and coughing brought by his fever and cold. To ensure there were no mistakes, he did not use his own flame control to bake them…-

Chapter 267: The Reward for Honesty Inside the hall where stone pillars had snapped, a group of Nighthawks wearing black trench coats and silk top hats appeared around the remnants of the altar. The one leading them was Saint Anthony Stevenson, archbishop of the Evernight Goddess Church’s Backlund diocese. “Destroyed by someone?” he muttered softly. Without lingering, he went directly to the stone door leading deeper inside. Dense darkness emerged, and the stone door silently opened. Saint…-

Chapter 266: An Inexplicable Smile In the barren fields of the suburbs, the old butler Finkel was fleeing at top speed. He had lost his hat. His graying hair, once combed with meticulous precision, hung messily down, and his clothes were covered in mud. Huff, huff… He paused briefly, gasping as he looked behind him. Seeing no one there, he felt slightly reassured. But when he turned his head, preparing to change direction, he discovered that at some unknown point, a figure had appeared before…-

Chapter 265: A Grade 0 Sealed Artifact in Action The instant Lady Despair saw the stranger appear opposite her, a sharp, crystalline ice spear condensed in her palm, and she hurled it at the target. Using the recoil, she attempted to smash backward through the carriage and enter the street. As for this sudden turn of events, as for this enemy who had appeared in such a bizarre fashion, it was not as though she had no doubts. Quite the contrary—she was extremely bewildered, unable to understand…-

Chapter 264: A Fool’s Thousand Considerations The first thing that entered Klein’s eyes was the altar surrounded by layers of brilliance, and the tall, thin figure standing within it. That figure had removed his hood, revealing a beautiful and eerie face like a woman’s. Four places—his left chest, shoulder, abdomen, and thigh—were covered with writhing, viscous, disgusting flesh. Around him, within the layers of light, illusory and transparent figures filled the air, brimming with…-

Chapter 263: The Straw Stalks At the place where Ince Zangwill had vanished, the light suddenly disappeared, dyed over by the richest, deepest darkness. Within the darkness, the sound of chanting poetry drifted out, peaceful and tranquil, urging one to sleep. Even the countless pale arms constantly reaching upward beneath the pitch-black water slowed because of it. They were no longer frenzied, as if they had received redemption of the soul. Inside this “night,” a figure walked out. It was…-

Chapter 262: Lady Despair Mr. A? Mr. A of the Aurora Order? Klein, who had been planning to slowly move toward the door along the wall and the shadows, silently shrank back again. Ince Zangwill should be cooperating with a certain faction of the royal family… A faction capable of excavating and hiding such an enormous underground ruin near Backlund must be one of the leading powers of the Loen Kingdom… The involvement of Ince Zangwill and 0-08 directly rules out the Church of the Goddess.
