Chapter 58: Third Movement A gray rat… Klein’s eyelid twitched. Without hesitation, he turned and walked back to the semi-open room, leaving it and passing all the way to the master bedroom before entering the bathroom. Throughout this entire process, he was neither hurried nor slow, as though he were merely repeating something that happened many times every day. The moment he locked the bathroom door, Klein immediately took four steps counterclockwise, passed through the gray fog where…-

Chapter 57: Interlude After throwing away everything except his clothing, Ernest Boyar froze for a moment and completely woke up. What am I doing? What have I done? This Sanguine viscount finally remembered what he had deliberately forgotten before. He remembered those green, clear eyes. Psychological suggestion—no, hypnosis… Ernest Boyar looked left and right, half resentful and half unable to suppress his fear, instinctively reassessing his own situation. His gaze then fell on that…

Chapter 56: Second Movement Third floor of the restaurant at the northwest corner of Saint Hielan Square. The moment the ghost wolf “carrying” a rose appeared before Ernest Boyar, Mistral—whose hair was pale silver and whose eyes were scarlet—immediately withdrew his gaze from Emlyn White. Darkness spread out behind him, and countless tiny bats flew within. Bribe… This Sanguine count had only just silently murmured the word when he “saw” the overturned carriage, “heard” the…

Chapter 55: First Movement Only after the Wraith opposite him vanished did Emlyn White withdraw his gaze. He untied the thin string around the file pouch in his hand and drew out the documents within. After reading them one by one, Emlyn more or less grasped Ernest Boyar’s movement patterns. This Sanguine viscount normally had no fixed schedule. Sometimes he stayed at home; sometimes he visited exhibitions; sometimes he went to a manor outside the city to taste wine; sometimes he accompanied…

Chapter 54: Prelude Above the gray fog, inside the majestic palace. Through the prayer light dot of Winner Enuni, Klein saw the scene inside the personal valet’s room. His field of vision rose higher, gradually extending. The entirety of Böklund Street came into view bit by bit: small buildings surrounded by flowers and green grass, Intis plane trees blocking the sunlight, carriages moving slowly along with decorations either elegant or extravagant, and young people happily speeding past on…

Watching Ernest board the carriage and leave, the bounty hunters hidden nearby immediately sprang out. Some did not begrudge the early expenses and directly stopped a passing hired carriage. Others memorized the target carriage’s features and tried to cut ahead through remote, narrow alleys. Still others mounted bicycles they had prepared in advance and, amid a series of jingling sounds, passed through the gaps between carriages and crowds, following with great ease. Among them, only Xio remained…

Flying to Mars for Vacation The exhaustion from what I had done in that outburst hit me like a ton of bricks… But a ton of bricks was no longer much of a problem for me. The potential consequences, on the other hand, very much were. I had just burned through the equivalent of an hour of stamina in a burst of anger, blindly created a constantly accelerating missile, and launched it toward the far side of the solar system. I raised my hands in front of my eyes and examined them from an…-

Aftermath For the last time, the course of future events was adjusted—not through direct intervention, but through communication and information. Many would protest. Many would cry unfairness. But it did not violate the ancient treaty, especially not when the other side had violated it so blatantly first. When nuclear power empowered by the idea of heroic sacrifice killed the physical vessel of their energy, the Lords of Mavis did not retreat. On the contrary, they continued pouring energy…

Magnifying the Effect of a Nuclear Blast By the time my double vision finally cleared, my entire body had begun to cramp in protest against my continued streak of questionable decisions. Unfortunately, we were nowhere near out of danger, which meant more of those unwise measures might still be necessary. After more than a dozen traps, surprise weapons, and overcomplicated schemes, I had not actually expected the giant tungsten bullet plan to work. So when I saw, heard, and felt deep in my bones…

Get Me Air Force Command For a while, the entire room was silent, save for the hum of computer fans and the almost inaudible buzz of countless electronic devices. Dozens of screens displayed all kinds of information: casualty lists, abnormal weather across five cities, emergency evacuations of several towns, desperate rescue operations in the storm. Inside this hastily assembled and badly overburdened command center, everyone ignored all of it. Their attention was fixed on one of the larger…
