A Private Meeting Among Transmigrators

"I don't know how turbulent the seas are, but I have encountered some pirates," Luther said, echoing the Hanged Man's words, glancing at him as he added, "So, interested in helping me redeem the bounty?"

[Temperance] Sir, have you gone to sea?

Audrey listened to their conversation and thought to herself.

Indeed, given what he accomplished in Backlund, he certainly couldn't stay any longer. Leaving the capital and heading to sea was a wise choice, though those pirates might be in for a rough time.

"Pirates are an integral part of the Sea; it would be abnormal if they weren't there."

Alger Hanged Man, asked with a touch of dark humor, "Which pirate crew did you encounter? Which pirate did you kill?"

Which pirate crew was so blind as to provoke him?

Alger thought to himself.

Then he heard the other person give the answer--

"The Fleet of 'The King of Immortality' Agalito, I killed his second mate, 'The Slaughterer' Kircheis."

As soon as the words were spoken, silence fell instantly Above the Gray Fog.

Apart from the still-flowing Fog, everyone else seemed to have turned into statues, completely motionless.

"Um, isn't the 'King of Immortality' one of the Four Kings of Pirates?"

After a moment, [Sun] Derrick asked uncertainly. He knew nothing about the area outside of the "Forsaken Land of the Gods," only having slowly pieced together some basic common sense from snippets of conversation.

You're not mistaken.

The Hanged Man, regaining his senses, spoke in a strange tone.

"Are the Pirate King's men so easy to kill?"

[The Sun] asked again.

Of course it's not easy!

[The Magician] Fors answered in her mind. "The King of Immortality" was Great Pirate who had been active since she was a child, so you can imagine how strong his second mate was. But even so, he was still killed by Mr. Temperance without a second thought.

After all, Mr. [Temperance] is that Blood Bishop; he stormed the Imperial Palace alone, so what's killing the second mate of a pirate king?

"I'm currently en route and unable to help you redeem the bounty."

After calming himself down, Alger said to Luther, "[The Hanged Man]..."

"Me too."

Klein manipulated the [world] dummy, giving the same answer.

"Knew."

Luther was somewhat disappointed. It seemed that Flesh and Blood Magic was the only way to temporarily preserve the corpse.

How did they offend you?

"[The Hanged Man] "Alger asked tentatively.

He wanted to know more details about the battle.

"I didn't provoke them; I just happened to run into them and killed them."

[Temperance] Luther recalled, briefly describing his situation at the time, including the adventurers searching for the "Fountain of Youth" and the thin Blood Crystal that precipitated from the bodies of the pirates after their deaths, but omitting the part about being in the God War Ruins.

What do you mean by "killing someone you just happened to encounter"? It's made to sound like you're killing prey.

"[The Hanged Man] "Alger thought to himself, but was quickly drawn to what Luther said next.

"Every now and then, news of the 'Fountain of Youth' spreads across the sea," he said solemnly. "There are always people drawn by the legend, who gather a group and go out, but so far, no one has returned."

"To put it optimistically, perhaps they've already drunk from the spring and truly become immortal. To avoid attracting attention, they've deliberately concealed their whereabouts."

Even he himself didn't believe that.

Luther thought for a moment and said:

"This must be an Agalito hoax."

"Mr. Temperance, why do you say that?"

"Justice! "Audrey couldn't help but ask.

"Because Agalito is very likely Sequence 4 of the Devil Pathway, 'The Demon.' And the Demon's Acting Principle is to deceive humanity and manipulate their souls," Luther replied.

Having already obtained the "Abyss" tarot card, he was very familiar with this Pathway.

Hearing him say that, Audrey's eyes flickered slightly.

She thought of her deceased friend, Kance Leerhsen.

According to the subsequent investigation, the Demon who assassinated Duke Negan impersonated Cons's father and infiltrated his family. He seemed to have originally intended to digest the Potion, but for some reason, he suddenly changed his mind and forcibly assassinated the Duke.

Cons

Audrey sighed silently, feeling an even greater weight on her shoulders.

Only by constantly becoming stronger can we protect our families in this dangerous world!

That's all for today.

The free exchange continued for a while, and seeing that no one had anything to say, the [Fool] at the head of the table spoke up.

Your will is our standard.

Luther and the others rose to their feet in greeting, waiting for the Red Light to fade and for them to return to reality as pure memories.

However, he only saw the figures around him disappear into the crimson glow, while he remained Above the Gray Fog.

What happened?

He looked up in surprise, only to find that the Mr. Fool had also vanished.

"Don't be surprised, it was I who asked Mr. Fool to let us stay."

At that moment, a hoarse voice came from beneath the long table. Luther looked in the direction of the voice and saw another figure left on the Gray Fog: [World] Klein.

"You have something to tell me?"

He then relaxed and asked with a smile.

"That's right."

Klein said, "Let's sit down and talk slowly."

"OK."

Luther smiled and sat back down on the bench. He suddenly had a strange feeling; the two of them had held a private meeting after the conference, doing it quite Concealment.

What have you been doing this week?

He asked Klein.

"I've set sail, boarded a Steam heading towards the Sonia Sea. We just stopped a few days ago at a place called Bansy Harbor," Klein said, then suddenly seemed to remember something, "Hey, you know what? The people there have a habit of eating blood tofu!"

He pronounced the word "blood tofu" in Chinese. In this world, only in front of his fellow townsman, Luther, could he share this excitement.

Blood curd?

This way of eating existed in my Homeland before I traveled there.

Upon hearing this, Luther felt both nostalgic and amused. He increasingly realized that Klein truly cared about food.

"You sound like you're having a good time."

"I can't be happy at all."

Upon hearing this, Klein immediately shook his head and smiled wryly, "Bansy Harbor is more dangerous than you imagine."

"What happened?"

Did you know that the ancient name of Bansy Harbor was Binsy?

Klein spoke earnestly.

Luther's body jolted, and then his eyes widened instantly.

Binsy

The Red Angel Evil Spirit's Binsy!

He once mentioned that in order to find the descendants of the Medici bloodline, one could try their luck in Binsy Town!

He almost Consciousness reached for his chest, afraid that the Red Angel Evil Spirit inside him would hear the news. But the next moment he remembered that he was just Virtual Personality brought to the Gray Fog, and there was no evil spirit Grazing inside him.
