Klein, on the other hand, also returned to Backlund, and his first stop was the Brave Ones Bar.
He also happened to see his... bounty poster for Gehrman Sparrow, with a reward of 50,000 pounds.
This time, Klein came to clear out his stock, since he had the Pretzelman Señor in his possession. After Renette Tinicol twisted the Blood Admiral into a pretzel, she not only didn't take away his special ability but also left it with Klein, showing great benevolence.
"If Maric still needs another vengeful spirit, he can wait and raise the funds. Once I find a replacement, I'll sell Señor to him."
"If you need this, you can keep it for yourselves. If you don't need it, please help me sell it within your circles."
Klein pulled out Señor's lucky charm and said.
Sharon grunted in response, her reaction as utterly wooden as ever. After entrusting most of the unused magical items and extraordinary materials to Miss Sharon, Klein began inquiring about the inner workings of the Rose School.
"What kind of possession...not the kind caused by vengeful spirits, but the kind that makes inanimate objects move and attack?"
Klein suspected that Miss Sharon might misunderstand and interpret it as the work of ordinary necromancers, evil spirits, or nature spirits, but he also found it difficult to describe.
"That's the power of the 'puppet'."
Fortunately, Sharon is very professional in this area.
Do you know him?
39
Klein gave a general description of what Zatwin looked like.
"Zatwin, track down our demigod."
Sharon's answer remained concise, like that of a true puppet.
Through Klein's questions, Sharon roughly understood some of the connections between Klein and her teacher.
As Klein added more, Sharon looked at him with even stranger eyes, even though, in Klein's view, Sharon didn't actually show any emotional change.
So how did this guy survive in such a chaotic situation involving the "divine abominations" of Seara, the demigods of the Rose School, the Church of Storms, the Rune military, and even the Spirit Order?
Luck alone is definitely not enough; does this guy also have a teacher?
"You are lucky, and you are also mysterious."
Even Sharon couldn't help but praise Klein.
Hehe~
"Where would you like to keep an eye out for me?"
Klein was asking about things in Williams Street.
"Some discoveries have been made."
After Sharon finished speaking, she led the way.
But I still have to go through the door... Klein watched Sharon walk through the wall and leave, then reluctantly jogged away from the Brave Ones Bar.
They soon returned to the underground ruins. This time, Klein originally intended to use a puppet to go in his place, but Sharon cleared a path for him, and Klein felt embarrassed not to go in. However, inside the closed, unexplored door, they discovered a teleportation portal.
What is this?
"There is no danger."
Sharon noticed Klein's wariness and deliberately stepped across the doorway.
Klein hesitated for a moment, but ultimately chose to believe Sharon, and he was also somewhat curious.
After passing through the portal, it seemed to be an underground palace, similar to the ones we had seen before, but with three chairs side by side. The armrests of the chairs were not pure black, but had a dark red hue in the patterns, as if they were intertwined with iron and blood.
On the wall, the ancient murals are blurred and indistinct, but they can still be vaguely discerned. It seems to be a ritual, with a humanoid creature sitting on each chair with its head bowed and lifeless, centered on a certain place in the room.
Klein certainly didn't recognize the figures in these murals, but by counting the wings, he could guess that he had only seen two wings on the angels who served the ancient sun god, and in ancient mythology, this was the mark of the angel king.
Wings so bright red, like blood...
"Red Angel" Medici?
As his thoughts gradually became clearer and more and more clues emerged, Klein quickly came to a guess: this might be the place where "Blood Emperor" Arista Tudor forcibly jumped from Sequence 1 "King of Killing" on the "Black Emperor" path to Sequence 0 "Red Priest" on a non-adjacent path.
Does this mean that a ritual involving the true God may have been held here?
Klein turned to look at Miss Sharon. "You still say this place isn't dangerous?"
At least one angel king and two archangels have died here. If there were even the slightest trace of their spirits or resentment, the two of us would likely have suffered a terrible death!
"Let's hurry up..."
Klein decided to slip away. He had seen too many random passersby in horror movies who, despite being perfectly innocent, would deliberately help monsters break their seals and risk their lives.
"There is no spiritual presence here."
"I can't feel it at all."
Sharon understood what Klein meant and, unusually, offered an extra explanation.
This is also why she dared to bring Klein along. As an extraordinary being with a different pathway, even she couldn't sense anything like spirituality, mental remnants, or resentment, which suggests that such things might not actually exist.
How could there be none?
The spirit of a high-sequence extraordinary being has undergone a qualitative change. Since this may involve rituals related to the true god, how could there be no spiritual remnants?
Klein found it incredible, then another possibility came to mind.
Surely there really isn't one here?
The red sacrifice symbolizes war, and the legal path is also relatively negative.
The "Blood Emperor" was so cruel as to erase all traces of Medici, Sauron, and Einhorn's existence, their resentment—not even a sliver of hope...
Klein felt a chill run down his spine, as if he were experiencing the cruelty of the Fourth Age.
What zero-sum rule... winner takes all...
"Let's go."
Before Sharon could speak, Klein turned and left the place that made him feel chilly.
Hmm... I have absolutely no intention of leaving any treasure hunting grounds.
There's really no danger here... Sharon thought to herself. Her teacher had already checked, but Klein's attitude was so firm that he didn't want to visit the large area of ruins behind him, so Sharon didn't say anything and silently followed him away.
Monday, May 9th
With the help of the Metropolitan Family Servants Association, Klein interviews for the butler he desires.
He did, after all, use a new identity, Dawn Dantes, to operate in Backlund.
This isn't to commemorate Dunn; it's just that the identities of Klein and Gehrman aren't suitable, and Sherlock's identity is hard to explain—how did he suddenly receive such a large sum of money?
Klein was very worried. Normally, no one would notice Sherlock's unusual behavior, but after Sherlock took a large sum of money, the number of people causing him trouble would automatically increase.
In order to openly enjoy the fruits of his labor, the mysterious tycoon Dawn Dantes makes his official debut.
Not counting the money from the sale of bicycle company stock and the unreceived magical items, he still had 3000 pounds in change, which was equivalent to six or seven years' income for an upper-middle class person. Even the drunkards in Bayam's tavern who boasted and fantasized about being Gehrman knew this.
Once you have money and become rich overnight, of course you'll launder your money, go ashore, and become a millionaire in Backlund.
