Action Begins

"Following the usual pattern, Lewis Wien will hold a gathering sometime this week," Luther said to Fors. "That will be a good opportunity to hunt him..."

After thinking for a moment, he asked again, "Do you want him alive or dead?"

"Ah?"

Fors responded in confusion.

"After all, Mr. X caused enormous harm to your teacher and her family. Simply killing him might not be satisfying enough for your teacher."

Luther explained, "Perhaps he would prefer to do it himself, slowly torturing his enemy, letting that fellow sink into immense despair as he watches his own life fade away."

As he said this, a cold, twisted smile appeared on his face.

I suppose this is judging others by myself. If I caught Ince Zangwill, I definitely wouldn't let him die easily either. I'd make him drown in endless pain, regret, and despair, suffering torment of the soul every moment until death...

The room was instantly shrouded in his frenzied aura.

God of Steam—no, Mr. Fool...

Fors felt the blood in her body turn cold. Like a mouse being watched by a venomous snake, she did not dare move at all.

"[Temperance], calm down."

Fortunately, [The World] spoke up from the side, taking the initiative to awaken the man who had fallen into that strange state. "You're scaring [Magician]."

Luther came back to his senses.

"Mm, sorry. An old habit acting up."

He spoke to Fors, and she hurriedly shook her head. "So, do we need to capture him alive?"

"No, please kill him directly."

Fors answered.

There were too many hidden dangers in capturing him alive, and she would not know how to deal with him either. It was better not to be greedy here. It would be best to kill him cleanly.

Klein agreed with this approach as well.
