The Master of the Strange Realm

As the voice became louder, Jenkins instantly merged his body with [Eternal Fire] and transformed into an elemental form. The roaring flames quickly heated up the air, causing a sharp change in air pressure, causing wind to appear in the closed space.

In this wind, Jenkins punched forward with his right fist.

"Heh~"

The middle-aged man did not dodge, and confidently swung his right fist. His fist was entangled by a black shadow. Jenkins, who had followed Chocolate to visit the shadow world briefly, smelled the power from the shadow.

The fists of the two men collided head-on, and the middle-aged man flew backwards directly. But he had no chance to break the window because a small stream of water wrapped around his right hand.

Jenkins pulled him back with a sudden pull, and while he temporarily lost his leverage point in the air, he punched again and hit the man in the face.

Judging from the feel of his hand, his nose must have been broken, but this was not the end.

"Ha~"

The flame body faded away, and Jenkins activated [Cat's Grace] by recalling the time when Chocolate played with the mouse. He frowned and continued to swing his fists quickly and forcefully. The feeling of each punch hitting the flesh was extremely clear.

He couldn't do the same skills as Chocolate, but the huge power itself was not something the middle-aged man could contend with. When the punch was over, he was knocked out again like a rag, but before breaking the glass, he was pulled by the water flow in Jenkins' hand, and then fell to the ground and didn't move.

"Humph!"

The whole process was just an exclamation, but the standing posture with his hands hanging naturally still made most people in the banquet hall feel powerful.

Jenkins raised his foot and stepped hard on the wrist and ankle of the man in front of him, and then signaled the people behind him to prepare to clean up the scene.

Although he is strong now, it is impossible for him to face the seventh-level giver and win so smoothly. This was helped by the demigod Alexia, who confused the middle-aged man's mind at the beginning of the battle. Jenkins was actually just hammering a piece of meat.

The dust settled, and the banquet hall was silent. Only blood and fire still affected people's senses, but the most visually impactful thing was the young man standing with his hands behind his back (black robe transformation version).

"Tree house..."

Jenkins repeated the word again, frowning, as if he had encountered an unsolvable puzzle.

No matter where the information was obtained, it showed that the fate stage of this era was Nolan City on the west coast. And this group of people who were ambitious to compete for the savior seat appeared in Loon in the far north, which was a big problem no matter how you think about it.

If the possibility that the middle-aged man who fainted was lying was excluded, then there must be a hidden story behind this that Jenkins didn't know yet.

His eyes moved away from the man who was being dragged on the floor, and then looked at the prince and his group surrounded by a transparent membrane.

"Twin demons."

He muttered in his heart, and a black blurry shadow appeared behind him, pulling out a residual image and rushing in that direction.

After the shocking explosion, the glass on the entire floor was shattered. Black flames and glass fragments flew in all directions. From outside the manor, it looked like someone had set off a large number of steam bombs at the window.

Alexia raised a blue barrier to protect everyone around her. Although Jenkins was affected by the flames and glass, others could only see his back and could not see him walking towards the window while healing his wounds.

The sound of glass shards falling to the ground was well covered by the oppressive footsteps. At least so far, the image of Jenkins as a mysterious man has not collapsed.

The barrier was completely blown up by the twin demons, and the two gifters who raised the barrier fell unconscious in the smoke and the wreckage of the broken floor.

The part of the second floor near the window was close to collapse, and the floor here was not strong enough to resist the twin demons. If it weren't for Alexia's protection, the reckless Jenkins might have destroyed half of the house at once.

He stood at the French window without glass and looked down. People holding kerosene lamps moved towards the wall in a semicircle. Dozens of rays of light shone on the young Howard Stuart, who was lying on the ground with blood all over his face, but still wanted to struggle to get up.

"At least he wanted to be arrested standing up with dignity."

Jenkins said.

"No, I think it was just because there were too many glass shards on the ground that he had to stand up."

Alexia reminded in a low voice.

The battle inside the manor was over so far, and only one gifter from the tree house appeared from beginning to end. Jenkins thought that at least one more demigod would appear, but Alexia reminded him that there would probably be no more than a hundred gifters who could reach level eight in the entire continent.

Most of these demigods belonged to the cult of gods, including the evil gods; and a few, such as the crazy Mr. Constantine a long time ago, would never cause trouble in the capital of the kingdom. After all, Loen City and Nolan City are both large dioceses, and the demigods guarding here are no less than Nolan.

Even if there are demigod-level gifters in the tree house, they will not appear publicly in the city. Although this is a slightly chaotic era, order and peace are still the main themes of the era, and the power of the church is still terrifying to those evil people.

Chapter 889 Chapter 872 Returning Home

Jenkins was originally worried that what happened in the small manor would attract the attention of the kingdom or the church. But until the group returned to the palace, no law enforcers appeared.

Later, after Julia's explanation, he learned that the main force of the church was now here to deal with the Snowman Legion. Those monsters had no idea what they had experienced on the ice sheet in the far north, and now they were becoming more and more powerful.

As for the reaction of the kingdom...

"Mr. William, His Majesty certainly knows everything that happened here, but as long as it does not endanger the order of the kingdom, generally speaking, he will not object."

This sentence reminded Jenkins of the prince who "disappeared" during the winter hunting. The man couldn't help shaking his head and lamenting the horror of the Stuart family.

After a circle in the city, it was almost midnight when he returned to the study. The interrogation will be carried out in the next few days, and at least no results will be obtained tonight.

Jenkins was worried that the tree house would retaliate against Miss Stuart, but Alexia told him not to worry:

"There is no demigod outside the church in Rune, I can guarantee this."

As she spoke, she winked at Jenkins. The short lady was even confident that she could fight against the demigod with her current strength, not to mention the people below the demigod.

"We will soon know whether the eldest prince or the eldest princess is behind Howard Stuart, and then the connection between the tree house and them will be clear."

"You must be careful."

He said worriedly, pulling the cat out of his arms and stroking it on his knees. Chocolate was still angry, but there was no good way to deal with those human women, so he forgave Jenkins for the time being.

It made a comfortable cat cry, and its tail swayed back and forth, showing that it was in a good mood.

"I originally thought that the focus of the tree house's activities was in Nolan City, but I didn't expect to meet their people here. You must be careful, they are a group of lunatics."

"I will be careful."

Alexia said and pulled Jenkins' hand again. This action was very natural, and Jenkins did not break free, which made Miss Stuart, who was watching from the side, feel a little uncomfortable.

Before leaving here, Miss Stuart heard that Jenkins would be able to see the dragon this week, so she asked him to take the unopened Dragon Language Secret Box with him.

She promised to find out the relationship between her brothers and sisters and the mysterious organization Tree House as soon as possible, and once again let Jenkins pay attention to his own safety.

After the man and his cat left, Alexia sat in the chair in front of the study window without moving. She smiled and looked at her students.

"Dolores, I know you are considering whether to ask me something very important."

"Teacher... do you like Mr. William, right?"

Julia wanted to cover her face. This question was not suitable to be asked here.

"I know what you want, Dolores."

The short lady's voice was soothing, "You will get everything you want... as long as you can figure out what Jenkins William wants."

"He only wants his cat."

The sixteen-year-old girl was very frustrated.

"No, no, no, don't let the appearance deceive your eyes."

Alexia stood up and came to Dolores, and the two of them looked at each other with their beautiful eyes:

"Don't think that Jenkins is an ascetic who has no desires. Believe me, his desires are greater than anyone else..."

(Chocolate in the dream...)

After breakfast early on Wednesday morning, Jenkins prepared to set off to return to his city. Probably because of the reunion with the tree house, he slept very badly last night and dreamed of the terrible huge black cat again.

The fight with the cat in the dream reminded him of the miserable state under the claws of chocolate after he turned into a mouse. So when he woke up in the morning, he looked at the cat with a strange look in his eyes.

First, he went to the church to say goodbye to the local clergy, and then Old Jack sent Jenkins to the train station in Shire.

He only took one box when he came, but he took two when he left. The new suitcase contained the potion that Old Jack gave to Jenkins, some books on potion science, and the information about Skru Pompeii that needed to be delivered to the Norlan Parish. In addition, there was a butterfly sealed in a glass bottle.

"This lost butterfly is very beautiful. I think you will like it."

This was an extra gift. Old Jack wanted to thank Jenkins for helping him brew potions and catch butterflies this week.

"I have done special treatment on the bottle. You need to use divine rituals to strengthen it every three months. In this way, as long as you don't open the bottle, there will be no problem touching this bottle."

The butterfly was indeed very beautiful. Even if you can't see the glowing wings in the daytime, it must be the most beautiful one in the large population of butterflies.

"But be careful of your cat. I noticed that it has been eager to try these beautiful little guys."

Before sending Jenkins on the train, Old Jack also warned.

This of course aroused Chocolate's dissatisfaction. When Jenkins waved goodbye to the old man through the window glass, the somewhat angry cat directly pushed the butterfly bottle on the table to the floor of the carriage.

Unfortunately, the bottle was very strong and could not be broken at such a height.

There was nothing new along the way, and Jenkins spent the boring time playing with cats and reading.

It was already Wednesday night when he returned to Nolan. He walked out of the train station with his suitcase, and the church's carriage was parked in a conspicuous place waiting for him.

"Huh? Captain Binsey? I thought you were on duty in Evergreen Forest."

There was no old man or Miss Bevanna in the carriage, only a slightly tired middle-aged man. He looked really exhausted. When Jenkins got on the carriage, he simply said hello and told the driver to set off for the church.

"There have been accidents everywhere in the city recently, and we can only temporarily transfer personnel from other places."

He paused, then added:

"The war may really have begun, Jenkins. I mean the war between the living and the dead. There are no less than ten cases of resurrection of the dead in Nolan every day. The church is already at war. It's really not the right time for you to come back."

Jenkins also understood this very well. When he was in Shire, he would return to Nolan every day to take a look, so he naturally knew the serious situation here.

"I heard about your discovery in Shire, and I have to admit that Father Oliver is indeed right. It is good for everyone to send you to Shire City on a business trip temporarily."

"Is there any progress in the investigation on the Nolan side? The investigation on the Skull Sword and Skru Pompeii?"

"Yes, but very little."

Chapter 890 Chapter 873 Journey (Part 1)

Talking about Skru Pompeii and his Skeleton Sword, Captain Binsey couldn't help but cover his face and rub his palms:

"We haven't found his hiding place yet. The only progress is about the living corpse gem. According to what you and Miss Audrey found, we restarted the investigation along the clues of the strange object and found that Will Kawan... Well, we know his real name is Skru Pompeii. Skru Pompeii came to Nolan three years ago and bought the jade from the second-hand store we investigated last year."

"Why did he come to Nolan three years ago? Just for the jade?"

"This is the focus of the investigation now. Do you know Miss Bronion? She is a demigod from the Church of Fate and Order. Thanks to her, the investigation of the Skeleton Sword can make progress."

The two talked about what happened recently in Nolan all the way, and it was not until they turned into the street where the church was located that Jenkins realized that the local demigods seemed to be inactive recently.

"The demigods are now dealing with the affairs of the mirror world. Oh, I remember that the affairs of the mirror world seemed to be reported to the church by you."

The cause of this incident was the circus that Jenkins encountered during his trip to Beldiran. The main members of the circus were all high-level gifters. The only low-level magician happened to meet Jenkins in the "paranormal event mutual aid group" incident, so he was involved in the affairs of the mirror world.

"The current situation is similar to the outbreak of gear bacteria last year, and it is even busier than that."

Speaking of this, the middle-aged man couldn't help sighing. The carriage stopped steadily at the door of the church, and the two looked at the flow of people in and out of the church door.

It was late at night, and Jenkins had never seen so many people in the church at this time.

"Oh, sage, it seems that something happened again! Jenkins, go directly to the keeper, I think I have to go to work."

After speaking, Captain Binsi got off the carriage and ran to his team members. Jenkins and the cat looked at the team gathering at the door for a while before they stepped into the ever-sacred and solemn church.

Although the door was in a mess, the interior of the church remained quiet. When Jenkins came to the Gate of All Things through the spiral staircase, he actually saw the three keepers there at the same time.

"Long time no see, Jenkins. Did you have a smooth trip?"

Mr. Smith greeted him, and seeing the young man's suspicious look, he explained:

"This is a special period, and the guarding of the Gate of All Things must be more cautious. I heard that you are in Shire..."

Bishop Palod had gone to rest without seeing his father or Miss Bevanna in the church. Knowledge talked with the keepers about the discovery in Shire, and then took a carriage back to St. George Street.

In this way, he spent a confused night. When he woke up in front of the fireplace on Thursday morning, Jenkins was still wondering what he had done in the past month.

He was woken up by Chocolate's little paws. The cat did not scratch Jenkins' face directly, but scratched the quilt quickly with its paws to make noise. In this way, even if Jenkins was angry after being woken up, Chocolate would have enough time to escape.

He was drowsy all morning until he saw the letter from Privet Drive in the mailbox, and then he suddenly woke up.

"Today is the last day of this month..."

Jenkins once again felt the malice from life. Looking at Robert's words in the letter, he went through the girls he could invite in his mind, and finally chose Hathaway. As for the reason, of course, it was because of that dream.

"This is just a simple family dinner, it doesn't mean anything."

He said a sentence that he didn't believe at all. After breakfast, he took the coat from the door and set off with Chocolate to get the jewelry from the gem craftsman.

"No, no, no."

As he said this, he retreated to the hallway, reached out to hang the black coat on the hanger again, and then took a thinner coat to put on.
