Disposing of Stolen Goods and claiming bounty. In the carriage on the way back, Klein examined the black mask in his hand. A symbol representing the Creator was imprinted on the opaque black crystal.
The material of the mask was definitely excellent. He found it hard to put down.
Hobart smiled. "If you become that one's Blessed, you can get a mask like this too."
Klein smiled. "I'll work toward that."
But he thought to himself, I'm already the Fool's Blessed. If I become the Creator's Blessed too, wouldn't that make me the Blessed of two evil gods?
What Klein did not know was that he was also the Goddess of the Night's Blessed.
As he spoke, Klein returned the mask to Hobart. "What if we didn't catch the target we were looking for?"
Although they had killed two Sequence 6 enemies, they did not dare sell their Extraordinary Characteristics or the Sealed Artifacts they had formed in Backlund anytime soon. Otherwise, Mr. A could easily follow the clues to their door and check the gas meter.
Hobart smiled. "The owner of the Sealed Artifact has a bounty on him too, and it's 1500 Pounds!"
As he spoke, he was glad that he had taken on this mission only after becoming Sequence 6. If he had come to capture Hayman while still Sequence 7, he could only have guaranteed his own escape.
"With such a high bounty, charging 100 Pounds for information isn't too much, right?" Hobart asked with a smile.
Klein immediately replied, "Not at all!"
Although Klein had found the man, and Hobart's information had been inaccurate, Klein had not faced much danger because of that mistake.
Just as Hobart had promised, he charged ahead while Klein provided cover, so Klein was quite satisfied with his share.
