Calamity Crown

The night gradually dissipated.

When the light of dawn shone on Hessetines—

"Extra! Extra!"

"Your Excellency Marple Poirot exposes Snake's remaining conspiracy!"

"His Excellency Andinan, the illegitimate son of the Grand Duke of Graz, will inherit the position of Grand Duke!"

"His Excellency Graz Jr., the second son of the Grand Duke of Graz, will inherit the throne of king!"

...

The clear and clear shouts of the newsboys completely calmed down the Hesettines who had been terrified all night.

Especially when groups of soldiers left the city and returned to the barracks, the residents of Hestings took to the streets one after another.

They range from well-dressed gentlemen to workmen in linen shirts and overalls.

Even if the ink gets on your hands, even if you are illiterate, you will gather there and listen to the reading of the literate.

At No. 11 Kimmel Street, Lanster and Ge Gen, who had been watching all night, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"That guy really can do it!"

Ge Gen laughed.

"Um."

"A peaceful day."

Lanster stood up and stretched, then smiled at his friend.

"I don't think we need to resign."

"Of course not!"

"That bastard director will definitely admit desperately now that he drafted and signed the document!"

Ge Gen curled his lips.

He is very clear about the virtues of their chief.

It's him and Lancet who are responsible.

The credit is your own.

All in all an asshole.

If it weren't for that, if there was a bottom line, he would have quit long ago.

"The signature is also his."

Lanster added.

Then, the two looked at each other and smiled, and were about to leave.

Now that nothing happened, they had to go back to catch up on sleep.

However, the maid Maria said very seriously——

"Mr. two police officers, thank you for your protection!"

"Although the owner is not here, I made a special breakfast!"

"Please finish eating before leaving!"

Faced with the maid's sincere invitation, Lanster and Ge Gen did not refuse.

After watching all night, the two of them were really hungry.

Moreover, having a breakfast as a thank you saves you from getting too involved with that bastard Marple, which is also an excellent choice.

After making up their minds, the two walked towards the restaurant.

Then……

I regret it.

At least, when Goethe returned to No. 11 Kimmel Street, what he saw was Lanster and Ge Gen who had fled. Their faces were pale and sweating profusely, as if their entire worldview had been shocked.

"I just improved the special roast chicken, I hope the two police officers will eat better."

Maria looked aggrieved.

Goethe glanced at the roast chicken, which was becoming more and more indescribable, and was silent for two seconds.

"I ate at the castle and I'm not hungry."

After finishing speaking, Goethe went straight to the upstairs study.

Just as the door of the study was about to close, Goethe added.

"Don't waste food, give it to Kay!"

After speaking, Goethe closed the door and went straight to his chair.

Let the back fit the chair as much as possible, and after the legs were slightly off the ground, Goethe relaxed.

He closed his eyes, recalling the previous scene.

Andinan didn't die, but he was in a very special state.

The secret technique of the 'Snake Royal Family'!

In other words, a 'talent' that requires both blood and probability to appear!

According to Sirik, this kind of secret technique does not need to be learned, as long as you have the blood of the 'Snake Royal Family', you may be awakened automatically, but the probability of this possibility... is basically negligible.

At least in the history of the "Snake Royal Family", except for the ancestor of the "Shadow Snake", one of the original seven heroes, only one person has awakened such a talent.

Andy Nan was the third.

This made Sirik admire Andinan's good luck.

Because every member of the 'Snake Royal Family' who has awakened such talent will definitely become a powerful transcendent.

This is true of the first two.

Andy Nan is naturally not an exception.

The old advisor was pretty convinced.

but……

Was it really an accidental awakening?

Could it be too much of a coincidence?

Goethe was suspicious.

Also, although judging from all the current information, Andinan's mother Charlotte Snake is the culprit of the whole series of events, but is the time for such a layout too long?

Hadn't there been a better chance in the sixteen years since Andy Nan was born?

Do you have to wait until now?

Of course, it is also possible that the other party wants to see Ryan's blood kill each other.

But if that's the case, the other party doesn't need to appear at 22 Castle Street at all.

Just watch from the sidelines!

With Ryan IX's stupidity, he will definitely do what the other party wishes.

Rather than the accident at this moment.

What is the final answer, Goethe does not know.

After all, he was just wondering, but had no evidence.

With the death of Charlotte and Snake, everything was settled, and the other party was the culprit of these series of incidents, including the crime of killing Ryan IX, which was also laid on the other party's head.

And he, the real assassin king, has become the one who sees through and exposes everything.

At the same time, he obtained the status of an advisor to the "Royal House of Ryan".

Sirik was also the one who obtained this identity together.

At the request of Graz Jr., the old consultant did not refuse.

And him?

It is impossible to refuse.

Because, Little Graz took out the secret technique of the "Royal Snake" from the treasure house of the "Royal Ryan": about divination.

"Shadow Snake Tail Devouring Technique"!

Goethe took out this secret book.

Then, the words in front of me began to appear——

[Discovered the secret technique 'Shadow Snake Tail Devouring', judging...]

[Possess the 'heart' attribute, the judgment is passed! 】

[Master the 'Tufu Language (Basic)', pass the judgment! 】

[If the judgment is passed, you can use the "bloody honor" to learn! 】

...

"study!"

Goethe never forgot why he entered the 'secret realm' in front of him, it was to find the secrets related to divination to deal with the pursuit of the 'gate of flesh and blood'.

hiss! Hiss!

A slight snake hiss came into Goethe's ears.

Goethe subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound.

A giant snake composed entirely of shadows suddenly rushed towards him.

Before Goethe could react at all, he was swallowed.

Then, he found himself 'biting' his own tail!

Um?

The illusion of changing positions suddenly stunned Goethe.

Then, before Goethe could react, his vision changed to a third perspective.

He watched the giant shadow snake bite his own tail, devour it non-stop, and circle around in place, but it couldn't finish eating, and the circles were one after another.

endlessly.

endless.

Eventually, the shadow serpent broke apart.

Only deep darkness remained.

And, the text—

[Shadow Snake Tail Devouring Technique (Incomplete): 'Shadow Snake' Snake combined various divination techniques with what he had learned to create a divination technique. To achieve the effect he wanted, only completed the first two parts! 】

[Effect: 1, Occupation; 2, Rattle]

[Our tail: Use a pendulum to imitate a snake, use divination to confirm something, the accuracy is not sure. 】

[Rattle Tail: Use a pendulum to imitate a snake and interfere with other people's divination about you. The success rate is uncertain. 】

(Note 1: When divination, except the pendulum, you can also use coins, walking sticks, crystal balls, burning bones, etc., but the accuracy will be further reduced)

(Note 2: When divination, if you use mysterious crystals, the accuracy will increase or decrease)

(Note 3: This secret technique cannot increase the level, but it can be completed)

...

Complicated and complex divination knowledge began to appear in Goethe's mind.

When everything stopped, Goethe couldn't help rubbing his swollen temples.

This time the knowledge synchronization is far more complicated than the previous skills.

But the effect is still immediate.

For example, Goethe looked at the teacup in his hand, and he could feel that something good happened to him recently based on the ups and downs and rotation of the tea stem-of course, such a feeling is just a feeling.

How will everything be?

You only know when it happens.

Almost instantly, Goethe got the above answer.

Goethe was not dissatisfied with this.

He already knew about divination before, and he knew that divination was not a very reliable secret technique. According to Goethe's understanding, unless his [heart] reached an extremely high level, otherwise, most of them would be Psychological deviations.

What's more, for him now.

Something is better than nothing!

Even if it only slightly interferes with the divination of the 'Church of Flesh', it is worth it for him.

Even after spending the last [Bloody Honor] for this.

Glancing at the zeroed [Bloody Honor], Goethe sighed slightly, feeling an indescribable sense of emptiness, as if the last bag of instant noodles in the box had been eaten.

But soon, Goethe adjusted.

Because, he started to check his other harvest: the dagger used by Charlotte Snake was given to him as a trophy.

This is a dagger that looks no different from a normal dagger except for a slightly blackened edge. It looks ordinary, but Goethe, who has seen the sharpness of this dagger, knows that it is extraordinary.

[Shadow Snake Blade (Imitation): After the ancestor 'Shadow Snake' was persuaded by the 'Lion King' to go back to the mountains, Snake's descendants tried to imitate the ancestor's sidearm more than once, but the imitation was ultimately an imitation. It is far from reaching the original power, and the one in your hand is one of the top ones. 】

[Effect: 1, armor breaking, 2, concealment]

[Armor Breaking: Sharp daggers can ignore 'blade', 'bullet' level entities, and force field shields]

[Concealment: When you hold a dagger, you will get the special effect of Stealth Level +1]

(Note 1: The Shadow Serpent Blade in your hand needs regular care)

(Note 2: When the Shadow Serpent Blade is damaged, the effect will disappear)

(Note 3: If you find a good craftsman, you can upgrade it again)

(Note 4: Mysterious items can bring out the 'secret realm')

...

Goethe looked at the effect of [Shadow Snake Blade (Imitation)], and joy appeared in his eyes.

Not to mention the [Armor Breaking] effect, just the [Concealment] effect is extremely important to him who is about to return to the 'Anchor World'.

That's right!

Returning to 'Anchor World' soon!

Under the propaganda of one newspaper after another, the fame column of Goethe's main mission has reached 100 just now.

Then a prompt appears——

[The main task is completed! 】

[Punishment disappears! 】

[After 10 minutes, it will automatically return to the anchor world! 】

[The countdown begins! 】

...

Watching the countdown, Goethe immediately took out a pen and paper, and wrote a note——

According to divination, I need to travel far.

Return time undecided.

Kimmel 11 was handed over to Maria to manage.

Marple Poirot.

...

Didn't say much, just a rough idea.

But that's enough.

Holding the [Ominous Call] and [Shadow Snake Blade] that could be taken away, Goethe quietly waited for the passage of time.

The moment the time returned to zero, Goethe disappeared from the chair.

And the moment Goethe disappeared, a straight line of thick smoke began to rise from the border of Ryan, heading straight for the capital.

In the end, it appeared in the sight of everyone in Hestings.

The expressions of the residents of Hessetings, who had just recovered from their panic, changed again.

Because, this thick smoke represents——

war!
