Chapter 231: Confession The sensation was not unfamiliar. With considerable experience, Klein immediately used his Clown abilities to control his facial expression and the slight tremor of his body. Gently but without haste, he withdrew his gaze, making the casual glance he had just taken reveal no obvious abnormality. “Sigh. Talim was so young. He had not even married or had children yet,” Klein said, following the moment with a lament. The reason he said this was because those words could…-

Chapter 230: A One-Man Performance The visitor was a man wearing a dark-green postman’s uniform. He smiled ingratiatingly at Klein. “Are you Mr. Sherlock Moriarty?” “Yes.” Klein vaguely guessed the other party’s purpose. The visitor immediately raised his right hand and handed over an object the size of a palm, wrapped in layer upon layer of black gauze. “Your package. Please sign for it.” Klein deliberately revealed his confusion. “Under normal circumstances,…

Chapter 229: Exploration Mission The Hanged Man, Alger, looked toward Magician Fors and asked in return, “You were forced to drink a second Apprentice potion?” Why did you guess it right away… as if you saw it happen with your own eyes… Fors cleared her throat a little awkwardly. “Yes. You can think of it that way… “Do any of you have a solution? What should I exchange for it?” The Hanged Man, Alger, stealthily glanced at Mr. Fool. Seeing that He made no indication, he…

Chapter 228: More “Channels” Cheek? Could it be that the Primordial Demoness was also once male? Klein nearly lifted a hand to pinch his own chin. He had once speculated that it was precisely the existence of the evil god known as the Primordial Demoness that caused the Assassin pathway to mutate into female form starting from Sequence 7 and then remain fixed that way. Who would have thought that Roselle’s diary would indicate that the Primordial Demoness might also originally have been…

Chapter 227: Angel Families Just as Klein picked up the diary, Audrey added another sentence: “Mr. Fool, there will also be ten more pages of the diary delivered to you afterward. They are the payment for the blessing you previously provided.” She repeated her private promise, lest Mr. Fool believe she had forgotten the matter. The reason she had first offset the information about the Twilight Hermit Order was because she wanted to settle one “debt” completely, and because it carried a…

Chapter 226: The Generous Prince The scene before him immediately reminded Klein of the romantic story Talim Dumont had once told him. His friend of noble status had fallen in love with a commoner woman and refused to marry anyone but her. Within the highest circle of the nobility, that was absolutely impermissible. Talim had been deeply troubled by this and had nearly hired someone to commit murder, but in the end, he had persuaded the woman to leave his friend of her own accord. Could the…

Chapter 225: Invitation “The royal family…” Klein held the letter Isengard Stanton had sent someone to deliver and muttered soundlessly to himself. He raised his head and saw the drizzle outside the window falling with a soft patter, while the gas street lamps gave off ring after ring of quiet halos. Inside the living room, the coffee table was neat and tidy. Several stacks of newspapers lay in one corner, and not the slightest sound could be heard around him. Klein sat on the sofa, body…

Chapter 224: Obituary This was not the first time Klein had watched someone familiar die before him, but it was the most sudden, the one with the least warning. Talim Dumont’s expression when he had asked what it felt like to truly like someone seemed still to remain in Klein’s mind. It had been vivid, concealing excitement and the urge to show off, yet because of certain factors, unable to share directly and needing to be cautious. Too fast… A normal illness would not cause death this quickly!…

Chapter 223: Klein’s Request Seeing the glass of Southville beer, topped with fine white foam, placed before Sherlock Moriarty, Carlson finally came to his senses. Once the bartender moved away, he lowered his voice and asked, “What do you want?” Klein lifted the glass, took a sip, and spent a few seconds savoring the malt fragrance that surged forth after the bitterness, as well as the faint sweetness that followed. “Cheers!” He turned his head toward Carlson, smiled, and raised the…

Chapter 222: Convergence Effect Eight o’clock at night, Harvest Church. Klein, who had already changed back into his normal outfit, quietly looked around by pressing the brim of his top hat, then stepped into the hall and walked toward Emlyn White, who stood before three rows of candlelight on the right. At the vampire’s feet was a black suitcase. Its surface seemed covered by a layer of “spirituality wall.” Sensing Sherlock Moriarty enter, Emlyn first showed joy, then immediately…
