Chapter 225: Danitz’s Request

Bayam had arrived? Hearing this, Klein stood up and looked outside, seeing the familiar private harbor belonging to the Resistance.

He did not show any surprise. Instead, he frankly said, “Faster than I expected.”

It was at least three hours earlier than he had estimated!

“It is also faster than I expected,” Edwina said, withdrawing her gaze and agreeing with Gehrman Sparrow’s words.

But those are all irrelevant details… Klein lowered his head and, feigning casualness, quickly flipped through the remaining contents of The Book of Three Worlds. Then he handed it back to Vice Admiral Iceberg and said, “This concludes our exchange.”

Edwina silently looked at the book. Her lips parted slightly, then closed again.

She accepted The Book of Three Worlds and placed it on the desk. Then she rose and bowed.

“I hope there will be more opportunities to exchange ideas with you in the future. Your accomplishments in ancient history are admirable.”

If it had been Klein’s own personality, he would surely have responded with a few modest remarks and praised Vice Admiral Iceberg for possessing similarly broad knowledge. But now, he was the crazy adventurer Gehrman Sparrow. He could only nod slightly and say, “We are collaborators.”

That meant there would be chances in the future.

He said nothing more. Leaving the captain’s cabin, he returned to his own room, easily packed his suitcase, and waited until the Golden Dream entered port before going all the way down to the deck.

By now, quite a few crew members had gathered on deck. Among them were Gourmet Bru Walls, Singer Orpheus, Flower Bow Tie Jodeson, and other high-ranking pirates with considerable bounties.

They wore sincere smiles and repeatedly waved at Klein, looking extremely warm. Barrel, Iron Sheet, and several others even appeared excited, and began singing a song to send off their guests.

When did I become so close to them? Klein lampooned inwardly. He crossed past the pirates and walked to the gangway.

Anderson Hood leaned there, clothes neat and hair perfectly arranged, smiling as he said, “What they probably want to say is: goodbye—no, may we never meet again.

“Gehrman, do you know how dangerous you’ve been during this time? You nearly became the enemy of the entire crew. They wished they could make the Golden Dream reach Bayam in only five minutes.”

Klein was about to respond when he saw Danitz, wearing a black cloak, jog over.

Is this fellow really striving to improve and preparing to leave the Golden Dream to operate alone? That doesn’t quite fit my plan. Around Vice Admiral Iceberg, near the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, he has the most value as a believer of The Fool… Still, it doesn’t really matter. If Danitz can grow, that is more meaningful than anything… Klein habitually weighed the matter, then threw away unnecessary thoughts. He watched Danitz indifferently, waiting for him to speak on his own.

Danitz opened his mouth with a serious expression, yet failed to say anything. In the end, he could only laugh dryly twice and ask Anderson, “Do you have the Conspirer potion formula?”

“I do.” Anderson grinned. “But I don’t plan to sell it to you.”

Danitz’s face instantly darkened, while Anderson continued speaking without the slightest concern.

“What meaning would there be in you getting the Conspirer potion formula now? If you tried to advance now, you would definitely lose control!

“Friend, go and act as a Hunter again. Then comes Provoker, then Pyromaniac. Heh, as for that Giant’s Heart, you’d best find an Artisan to turn it into a defensive mystical item. Otherwise, I’m afraid you’ll get beaten to death one day.

“Once you’re certain you have enough confidence, ask your captain for the Conspirer potion formula. She has it.

“Of course, heh, I think this is probably as far as you go. The requirements for Conspirer are very high.”

As Danitz was mocked until his facial muscles twitched, he also carefully…
