In the early morning of a new day, Capim sat at the brightly lit dining table, watching the servants bring plates and delicacies to the table one by one, with a smile on his face, but his heart was not as happy as it looked.

One of his men had a conflict with Zimang Party of East Borough last night. He was besieged by those barbaric plateau people and died under a dagger handed out from the dark.

Although he has been away from the underworld for a long time and is dissatisfied with his stupid subordinates for provoking other gangsters, his subordinates are his subordinates. If he does not take revenge, others will see it and it will have an impact on his leadership.

It's a pity that Mr. Harras stopped him. In front of other subordinates, he stopped him like scolding a dog.

Thinking that his family was still under the "surveillance" of the other party, Capim put away his inner dissatisfaction, put on a smile, and said to Harras, who was the last to sit down:

"Good morning, Mr. Harras, today's breakfast includes roasted squab, pumpkin shortbread, cheese-baked cream mushrooms, fruit caramel pudding and fruit salad," Capim motioned the waiter to open the seat and let Harras sit down. "They come from North Borough different restaurants. They were rushed here just to appear on our table at the freshest time."

"Hmm, eating dessert early in the morning, that's the style of our country."

Harras tied the napkin with the help of the waiter. He grinned and sneered without a smile. One of Capim's men died in East Borough in the middle of the night last night. For a time, he thought This place was targeted by some malicious Beyonder. It was not until he confirmed that the limitations of "Secret Keeping"'s ability had not been broken that he settled down and continued to rest, so that this morning he was not as energetic as usual.

Ms. Katie had already arrived at the restaurant in advance to start her meal. She was "dissecting" a roasted pigeon with a knife and fork. The pigeon's bones and flesh gradually separated under her precise cutting. Her neck moved slightly when she heard the words, but she did not speak.

Parker was enjoying caramel pudding. Hearing Harras's words, he put down his spoon with a smile and said:

"But sweets can make people feel happy throughout the day. Mr. Harras, think about the goods in the basement. You can pick them first today. Is this worth a piece of pudding?"

Hearing Parker's compliment, Harras's stern face finally showed a smile. He was about to reply, but suddenly Spirituality felt something and felt a little uneasy in his heart.

He quickly dropped his knife and fork and looked above his head with a frown.

There hung a large gas lamp with a complicated shape and multiple sets of reflective lenses, which illuminated the entire restaurant as if it was under Blazing Sun on a late autumn morning.

An invisible sound of Shriek came from the gas lamp above the head, and instantly swept across the restaurant's Capim, three Beyonder, and the maid and waiter standing aside.

Snap——

Harras felt a stinging pain in his eardrums, but other than that, he only felt a little dizzy in his head and his vision became blurry. After standing up with the armrest of the chair, he could see the dining table in front of him clearly again within a few seconds.

At this time, Katie, who had also stood up, covered his head, and a few drops of sticky blood dripped from the tip of his nose, falling on the dinner plate in front of him. She covered her head with one hand and grabbed the holster at her waist with the other, preparing to take out the revolver and respond to the attack.

Parker next to her was even more miserable. His eyes turned white, and he kicked his legs backwards with his chair. Capim, who was sitting in the chair, didn't even make a sound. He fainted and lay down on the fruit caramel pudding that had been rushed to him early in the morning.

The waiters and maids around were just ordinary people. They were in the same situation as Capim. They staggered around and quickly lost consciousness. Their faces were painted with blood oozing from their mouths, noses, and ears.

At some point, a tall woman appeared on the table. Her long black hair was disheveled and her round face was full of indifference. She raised her right foot slightly and stepped out. Ice that could freeze everything surged out from the sole of her feet, blowing away the puddings and shortbread on the table and rushing toward the Beyonders.

Harras had already backed away from the dining table at this time. Although Katie was a step slower, he dodged the attack in time and took out his revolver.

The overturned Parker just stood up, unable to avoid it, and his body instantly became stiff.

Then, in Spirit Vision, which Harras opened subconsciously, a translucent figure wearing black armor and a black crown jumped from the gas lamp and jumped into Parker's body.

Kicking away Capim who had no fighting ability, Angel took out the revolver from his waist like lightning and shot it in the head, killing Parker who was possessed by Moriarty's magical ghost spell.

This Beyonder did not reveal the specific Potion Sequence and Beyonder Ability in the divination of Moriarty and Angel, but Angel quickly selected the weakest Beyonder among the ghost's Shriek, using him as a breakthrough point to solve one person on the field.

Harras Only then did he realize that there was more than one intruder, and the other one was even a weird ghost.

No wonder my own Spirituality danger warnings are getting stronger and stronger.

The woman pedaling Frost should be "Witch". He knows these Beyonder Ability, which are fancy but not very powerful. Even with the strange ghost, he can't handle it. There is also Katie who has recovered from dizziness in the restaurant. The two have cooperated many times in battles, and they can catch turtles in the jar!

Thinking of this, Harras smiled instead of getting angry. He pointed to the door of the restaurant and read out the words composed of Ancient Hermes:

"Imprisonment!"

The entire restaurant seemed to be swept by invisible waves, as if there was an extra layer of wall beyond the brick walls and wooden doors that even Spirit Body and certain special abilities could not pass through, and the inside and outside were already isolated.

Katie held a revolver in one hand and a soft whip in the other, stepped on the chair and jumped onto the dining table, attacking Angel. The latter stood on top of the layers of Frost, with her black hair disheveled, looking like a female ghost in the rising cold air.

Several black flames suddenly appeared around her, holding a Ice Spike with a forearm thickness and smashing it towards Katie. Katie was about to raise his gun and aim at Ice Spike when Harras shouted from behind:

"Watch out for the flames!"

Out of trust in her companions, she no longer tried to attack, but rolled backwards and rolled directly off the dining table, avoiding the flames and Frost that reached her body amidst the crackling sounds of dishes.

Angel came after him with a dagger, waving it condescendingly. Katie could only deal with it in embarrassment for a while.

Harras's eyes gradually turned cold. He opened his mouth and was about to pronounce the next Prohibition, and cooperated with Katie to kill the flexible Witch. From the corner of his eye, he saw the weird armored ghost floating from the body of Parker, who had turned into a corpse, flying towards him just like it had attacked Parker.

He snorted coldly, raised his hand and pointed forward, and read in Ancient Hermes:

"Forbidden Here flying."

Wearing a crown, the emperor-like ghost was grabbed from the air by an invisible giant hand and pulled to the ground. The speed suddenly slowed down. Harras took out a gold-encrusted revolver and aimed at the tall ghost's head, which was wearing a pitch-black crown and whose face was covered by a mask of the same color. He was about to shoot special bullets that could hurt Spirit Body and Wraith.

Snap——

Bright yellow flames appeared from the gaps in the ghost's armor, as if it started burning on its own, and the same fire appeared on Angel who rushed towards Katie.

Flaming Jump!

In an instant, the two exchanged places in the flames ignited by Moriarty. Angel appeared in front of Harras, while Ghost Moriarty pounced on Katie, who looked frightened.

Katie, who was holding a gun and a whip, couldn't dodge. He kept his forward posture and got into the mysterious Spirit Body who had exchanged positions with Angel. He was put on a translucent armor. In an instant, his limbs felt cold and his joints were stiff. He was frozen in place and could hardly hold the weapon.

"Bang——"

Harras pulled the trigger, and the gold-plated revolver originally aimed at the ghost's head fired a bullet with strange patterns, passing over Angel's head. Black flames emerged from the latter's dagger, and it stabbed at him at a speed that was almost impossible to see clearly.
