Mystery: Lucky

There was no sound at all in the surrounding silence. Not long after Klein stayed with the two lovers, he realized the biggest anomaly here.

——It's too quiet here.

Klein cautiously and uneasily stayed where he was, with the idea of ​​​​escape appearing in his mind. Moreover, his coming here was not without gain. At least the effects on various abilities have been tested by him.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he felt. Klein reached out and grabbed his two close friends. Just when he was about to leave, a loud noise suddenly broke through the silence around him.

when!

when! when!

The sound was heavy and crisp, as if someone was hitting metal.

Klein temporarily gave up the idea of ​​leaving and listened carefully for two seconds before letting "Winner" Enzo put down the heavy golden disc and walk towards a broken tombstone not far away.

The half of the tombstone corresponds to a building that is developing underground, and it says in the "Language of the Dead":

"A guy who was easily angry died six times because he compared the hardness of his brain with someone else's hammer."

"Winner" Enzo walked around the broken tombstone and arrived at the door of the mausoleum-like building. He stretched out his left palm, twisted the handle, and opened the door forcefully.

With the creaking sound of rust breaking, the heavy door slowly opened.

Whoosh whoosh!

Arrows condensed with pale brilliance flew out!

They rubbed Enzo's face, top of his head, torso, and inner thighs, flew into the distance, plunged into the ground, and disappeared, leaving the "winner" unscathed.

...I have to say that such a marionette is simply an artifact for adventurous exploration... Klein sighed sincerely, and Enzo turned his attention to the building below:

It was a blacksmith shop, and a giant with blue-black skin and a head like a smashed watermelon was holding a sledgehammer and kept hitting the chopping board, but there was nothing on it.

Because the giant's "spiritual body thread" with its split head was normal and did not belong to someone else's soul, Klein quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Just as he was about to ask Enzo to observe further, his body suddenly became paralyzed and his thoughts slowed down.

Klein is no stranger to this feeling. As a "Secret Puppet Master", he knows that this is a sign that the supernatural thread is controlled by someone.

I was suddenly shocked. Before I could react, a silver river enveloped the entire area, and the sluggish feeling disappeared from my body again.

Klein instinctively looked at the entrance. A figure was standing there. Klein saw a simple linen robe, long silver hair, a pair of soft and indifferent eyes, and illusory layers of pure wings.

Ourolius!

After just one meeting, the name appeared in his mind. Without thinking, Klein grabbed Ludwell and disappeared.

Ourolius stood there, and the shimmering river appeared from his eyes again, surrounding the periphery of Calderon City. However, the figure that disappeared from the spot did not appear again. In the end, the river could only sway twice. , broken in place.

Ourolius looked at the scene in front of him without saying a word. After a long silence, he suddenly moved his head and set his sights on the "winner" Enzo and the half-dressed man who appeared next to the "winner" Enzo. On the body of an invisible person in a transparent white robe.

…

Klein opened his eyes above the gray fog, and the first thing he did was contact Alice.

Alice did not seem happy to hear the news about Ourolius again after a long absence. She hurried over the gray fog and asked with a frown:

"How did you meet Him?"

"I don't know..." Klein answered honestly, and then told about his experience.

Alice frowned and listened patiently, but she couldn't find the reason for Ourolius's sudden appearance from this passage. In other words, she only found one.

She asked with some uncertainty: "...that card?"

This is the only possible reason. Klein frowned and said nothing. Alice exhaled and focused on another thing:

"You said you finally came back with Ludwell, then...

"Where's your other close partner?"

"Still in the same place..." Klein said frankly.

Alice put her hand on her forehead, closed her eyes and opened them again, and then told Klein:

“I really should have gone there with you… Even if I couldn’t get in, I should have blocked the door like Ourolius.

"You... forget it, we have to go pick up your secret partner."

Klein didn't say anything. He had just thought about this. The secret couple had a strong mystical connection with himself. Ouroleus could probably find his whereabouts through the "winner" Enzo who stayed behind. .

And once found...

"I have a question," Klein confirmed to Alice, "If Ourolius is killing me..."

"You won't have any chance to call for help," Alice said without hesitation. "To be more serious, maybe you won't realize that someone wants to kill you, or that you haven't had time to realize that someone wants to kill you."

Cold sweat broke out on his body. Klein looked at Alice stiffly. Alice thought for a while and comforted:

"Don't worry, you are different from me...

"Although Ourolius doesn't seem to be interested in me now, he might one day hunt me down like he hunted down Will Auceptin... No one can be sure of this, it just depends on the intention of fate.

"But you are different. You are not on the same chessboard as us. What you have to worry about is Amon and Zaratul, and maybe Mr. Gate... I don't know if there are others, but it doesn't include Wu. Lolius.

"You are not the enemy."

Klein couldn't help but remind him: "Don't forget, I have angered the 'True Creator' several times. According to you, Ourolius is currently working for the 'True Creator'..."

Alice's eyes fell on Klein solemnly, and she said softly:

"For high-sequence, this is not a matter of death...but you have to become a high-sequence first."

Klein raised his head and looked at her. After a few seconds, Alice suddenly touched her chin and said:

"I have a proposal."

"What?" Klein asked confused.

"I have the honorable name of Ouroboros," Alice told him quietly, "Anyway, as long as Ouroleus wants to, it will be a matter of time before you are found... Why don't you just ask Ouroleus to give you that... …What’s it called?”

Klein was stunned for a moment and responded tentatively: "...the true soul of the spiritual world predator?"

Alice's eyes lit up and she happily told him:

"Yes, that's right, that's it.

"Why don't you just ask Ourolius to grant it to you? I have his honorable name. As for the ceremony, you can do whatever you want... and then the sacrifice... um..."

Alice wanted to say ice cream, but she hesitated and swallowed it back, then sincerely suggested:

"Perhaps you could give Him a set of mural painting tools - you could consult Anderson."

"Huh?" Klein looked confused.

Alice didn't speak. She continued to recall the brief time she spent with Ourolius in the past, and then raised another point:

"If you can send some personal belongings or relics of the 'Ancient Sun God', He might also be very happy... But this is a bit too embarrassing."

Klein finally couldn't help but interrupt her, frowned and asked:

"Are you sure this will work?"

Alice shrugged and said, "Are you worried that he won't be able to think about killing you? Don't worry, I can accompany you, so that he will be busy killing me and not care about you."

"?" Klein looked at Alice in shock.

Alice went on to say matter-of-factly:

"To be honest, if it weren't for Amon who is pregnant with Will Auceptin now, it would be best to bring Will Auceptin over. In this case, He wouldn't even care about the two of us... "

Klein's heart moved shamefully.

…

After sleeping for two hours, Klein slowly stood up from the bed while rubbing his still aching head.

Then he rang the bell by the door and waited for the waiter to come up.

Not long after, a local native wearing a white shirt and red vest, dressed as Loen, came outside and knocked on the door.

Klein turned the handle, opened the outer door a crack, and ordered in a low voice:

"Send another lunch to the room. It was too early to eat before."

At this moment, his appearance had changed into that of a tanned secret puppet - as a gentleman who had two servants and lived in a luxurious room, it was impossible for him to go to the door and order the waiter in person.

...Speaking of which, I have to find my secret partner as soon as possible, otherwise I will have to find someone to replace my missing servant.

"A lunch, do you have any special requirements?" The indigenous waiter took out a pen and paper and asked in the rather strange-pronounced Loen language while taking notes.

Klein responded in the same awkward Runeese: "Mainly red meat, with a glass of sparkling liqueur with ice and lemon."

"Does it include two servant meals?" the indigenous waiter asked following the process.

Klein was silent for a second and said, "Included."

The two secret puppets had lost the ability to eat, but in order to cover up, Klein had to ask for two servant meals, and then eat three meals alone - this was his biggest problem when he was in the Southern Continent.

...Can I give one of the meals as a sacrifice to Ouroleus?

No, no, in that case I need to compensate for the tableware... Ourolius is not Alice, he shouldn't send the bowl back after eating, right...?

Klein hesitated for two seconds and decided to believe that the angels under the "True Creator" were more normal than Alice.

Next, while controlling the secret puppet to clean up the room, Klein simply called Alice over and invited her to help him with the extra lunch. At the same time, he decided to discuss the details of praying to Ourolius with her.

——Although this matter sounds ridiculous everywhere, it seems to have some truth.

Following Alice's suggestion, Klein first summoned Reinette Tinichole and sent a letter to Anderson Hood, who was currently unknown, asking for his opinion on the mural materials.

Afterwards, Klein firmly refused Alice's request to pay for the ice cream in one lump sum now, trying to make her understand the fact that normal people would not eat a dozen ice creams at a time.

Alice accepted this with regret, snatched away Klein's sparkling liqueur, and then asked curiously:

"If you eat a meal for three people by yourself, you will get fat, right?"

"Nonsense." Klein rolled his eyes at her.

Alice touched her chin and asked sincerely:

"I know that even now, you can't change your body shape much, so when you disguise yourself as a woman, you shouldn't be able to disguise your breasts?"

Klein had a bad premonition, and he said to Alice warily: "It's not completely gone, just a little bit."

Alice nodded thoughtfully and asked curiously:

"But if you eat fat enough, can you fake female breasts?"

“?” Klein looked at her in surprise, and subconsciously thought about this possibility.

This is entirely possible. After thinking for a few breaths, Klein pinched his brow helplessly and said:

“To be honest, when I was pretending to be Elaine and completely digesting the ‘Faceless Man’ potion, I originally thought that I had no psychological barriers to disguise myself as a woman.

“But for some reason, some words become very strange once they come out of your mouth...

“For example, now, I am beginning to think that disguised as a woman is a shameful thing.”

“This is normal,” Alice drank the last sip of sparkling sweet wine and expressed a very profound point of view, “Even if you really think it’s nothing, it doesn’t mean that you think it’s nothing to be ridiculed and talked about because of it.”

Then, she put down the tableware and finally reminded Klein:

“Don’t forget to tell me when Anderson replies!”

Klein agreed to Alice’s words, then found an excuse to quickly drive her away, and then thought about it.

He knew a little more about Anderson's whereabouts than Alice, which was mainly due to Danitz - he knew Anderson was with Danitz now.

And Klein just happened to think that Ouroboros was an angel king of the "monster" path. He should be able to see the worms and light balls on his body like Alice and guess his origins.

Maybe, as Alice said, for the high sequence, the things he did to the "real owner" were not enough to make them enemies to the death, but they should not make their relationship too friendly.

Klein thought that he should remind Danitz to be careful.

Anyway, Anderson and Danitz were together, so he would ask Danitz about the appropriate mural materials for Anderson. After all, if they let the messenger deliver the letter, they would have to pay gold coins...

Just think of it as saving money for them!

Klein made a decision and headed for the gray fog again.

...

West Balam, Kukwa City in the Northern State led by Mesanyes.

Anderson Hood was cutting a piece of meat with a knife, while Danitz on the opposite side was chewing the meat without any image. Suddenly, Danitz paused, and Anderson stopped right after him and asked him:

"What did you remember?"

Danitz looked at Anderson Hood hesitantly, and after thinking for two seconds, he asked a more relaxed question:

"I remember you can paint murals?" (End of this chapter)
