Major Decision

"The Evernight Goddess, more sublime than the Cosmos, more enduring than eternity;"

"You are the Lady of Crimson, the Mother of Concealment;"

"You are the Empress of Calamity and Fear, the Lord of Slumber and Silence," I beg for your gaze, "I beg for your hearing," "Sister—your cat has entered that Lost Kingdom, you know what opening that door will bring, so—"

"Be sure to be prepared before that door opens."

When Neph reminded the Evernight Goddess of this, she was pondering what she should do.

She had asked Klein what he thought. Although bringing the person out was inevitable, the idea of making contact, doing nothing, leaving, and telling others that he would definitely come back sounded strangely shameful.

Neph felt a pang of guilt upon hearing this, because that was how she had first left Moon City. But she quickly realized that she hadn't done nothing; she had left a Sequence 3 in Moon City!

This gave her confidence, so when she reminded Klein to remember his lines in Moon City, she didn't seem guilty at all. On the contrary, Klein was quite upset about it. "Miss ' Pure White,' don't you have your own followers? You're just taking advantage of me!"

There is still some, but this matter is something that only Klein can do. What? Can she do it herself? I can't hear it.

Neph abandoned Klein just like that. She recalled what had happened at this point in time and realized that, apart from waiting, it seemed that all she could do was dig up Amon's grave.

----No, are you really going?

Neph hesitated.

"I should have Leonard send me a Lantern —they disappear too quickly, and there's a limit to the number I can get—I shouldn't have been so polite—" Klein muttered to himself, clutching the Historical Projection Lantern in his hand. "Or maybe someone else—'The Magician '? Hmm, Danitz isn't bad either—"

He realized this problem after walking around the "Forsaken Land of the Gods" for a while. Considering the environment of the "Forsaken Land of the Gods", Klein did not dare to use "teleportation", because the essence of teleportation is to go to the Spirit World and then go to the destination through the Spirit World - in Neph's words, it is to run wildly in the Spirit World.

The special circumstances of the "Forsaken Land of the Gods" made Klein lack the courage to go to the Spirit World. He even doubted whether he could enter the Spirit World. However, having lost "Travel," he actually had no way to move at high speed.

That's not quite right either; he could actually Lantern and run wildly himself. As a Sequence 3 Saint, he could run...

He could run faster than Steam Train; if he wanted, he could run through the "Forsaken Land of the Gods" with Lantern, since no one could see him anyway.

But it was clear that Klein was unwilling to try. He would rather see if there were any suitable means of transportation in the Historical Projection than travel on foot—that sounded too unseemly!

But no matter which method he chose, the Lantern that disappeared periodically and took up a slot was a problem that needed to be solved. After thinking for a few seconds, he finally decided to ask Danitz first.

"Come in." In the Captain's Quarters of the Golden Dream,"Edwina flipped through the papers on the table and looked up at the door.

Someone Door Opening and walked in. It was Longzel. He had taken off his black armor and changed into a set of clothes commonly seen in the Rorsted Archipelago.

This was purchased while the "Golden Dream" was docked. Compared to Mobet, who had left long ago, Longzel, who had been on the ship for some time, had already integrated into life on board. He no longer simply attended classes, but began to help out on the ship as a Sailor in his spare time. This led to Edwina giving him a share of the crew's pay as well.

Groselle and Shatas gradually integrated into the group, even better than him. This was because Shatas was Beyonder of the "Sailor" Pathway, and the sea was the place she knew best. As for Groselle, he was very good at shouting slogans.

The Golden Dream " didn't even have language barriers; Longzel was surprised to discover that the core ship on this vessel...

All members are fluent in at least several Mysticism languages, including Hermes, Ancient Hermes, Jotun, Elvish, and Ancient Feysac. Even those who are not core members have mastered more than one Mysticism language.

He quickly found the answer in the course. Edwina was a good teacher. In the past six months, Longzel had mastered Hermes and basic Mysticism knowledge, and also learned Ancient Feysac.

The latter was Edwina's suggestion, because this language is the origin of the languages of the Northern Continent countries. After learning this language, it will be very easy to learn the languages of other countries. In this way, it will be relatively easy for him to go anywhere after he leaves the "Golden Dream".

Although Longzel believed that he would at least return to Backlund first.

He had consulted Edwina about the existence of the Northwest District of Backlund, but this "mystical mentor" from Remnantburg was not very clear about this part of Backlund's history. However, she gave Longzel a suggestion. "If you want to trace the past of a city, perhaps you can go to that 'pure white' lady, or the 'Winter God' that Gehrman mentioned—His power is involved in this area."

Longzel remembered this, but he had no intention of leaving the Golden Dream " anytime soon. Firstly, he had no money, and secondly, if he had money, as an ordinary person, he would only be in greater danger on this the Sea.

Having learned about the mechanism of accumulating contribution points to exchange for Potion materials, Longzel had been hoping to become Beyonder through this method, save up a sum of money, and then return to find Backlund. After all, he had confirmed the current year, and it had indeed been more than a hundred years since he entered that travelogue. Even if he went back, it would only be to find where his family was buried.

Unless his family members also become Beyonder.

Longzel had no expectations in this regard, so he didn't wait any longer. Or rather, he was somewhat confused. He wanted to go back to Backlund, but he didn't know what to do when he got back, or what to do after he finished everything.

After all, he was no longer a soldier of Loen and had lost his family. For him now, life seemed to have lost its clear direction.

Edwina had subtly sensed this, but lacking knowledge of psychology, she cautiously refrained from interfering. She only raised the issue with Gehrman Sparrow during her teaching sessions. Apart from Groselle, who seemed oblivious to his surroundings, this problem existed to varying degrees in others, with Mobet exhibiting the mildest symptoms and Longzel the most severe.

As for Snoman, who was taken away by Neph, he is not within the scope of consideration.

Chapter 58 Major Decision

As she continued flipping through the exam papers, Edwina's gaze fell on Longzel. She spoke gently, "You've mastered the courses you chose. Do you intend to stay on the ship to continue your studies, or will you disembark when we dock next time?"

"I want to stay here," Longzel said.

He stated his thoughts, and Edwina pondered for a moment before nodding in agreement, "A crew member? It seems like a simpler option—but there might be some trouble on the Beyonder Pathway. I heard you were in that travelogue before..."

In the world I remember, I became Sequence 5 "Disciplinary Paladin"?

Longzel nodded.

"You probably don't know," Edwina shook her head, "that in the current era, this Pathway is mainly controlled by the Augustus Family of Loen and the Castiya Family of Feynapotter. These two families are the Royal Family of their respective countries, and they have essentially monopolized these two Pathway. Potion recipes and Beyonder Characteristic circulating outside are extremely rare—"

"I have the Potion recipe," said Longzel.

"And what about Beyonder Characteristic?" Edwina asked him, "or the main ingredient—"

Longzel shook his head, and Edwina had her answer. She continued, "In ancient times, the Augustus Family and Castiya Family would use Potion as rewards within the army, but nowadays, it has become a privilege of noble children."

"However, some nobles also possess the corresponding Potion recipes, and their families also collect Low Sequence Potion materials, which they sometimes bestow upon their retainers. But those who receive such rewards are usually those who have served a family for generations—"

Longzel let out a breath and asked thoughtfully, "So, it's going to be difficult for me to obtain the ingredients for my own Potion?"

"No," Edwina shook her head, "On the the Sea, in the eyes of bounty Hunter, there's nothing you can't get, as long as you're willing to pay more."

Longzel paused, seemingly not understanding the meaning of the sentence. Edwina then explained, "The contribution required to exchange for the ' Arbiter ' Pathway Potion materials might be a bit high—"

"I have no problem," Longzel replied immediately.

"Okay," Edwina nodded, "You can go back now. Call Shatas over."

Unlike Longzel, who knocked politely, Shatas pushed the door open and asked, "Captain? What do you need me for?"

Edwina nodded slightly, signaling her to close the door.

Shatas closed the door behind her and walked closer. She noticed a history exam paper spread out on Edwina's desk. Startled, her eyes widened in panic. "I failed again?"

"No," Edwina shook her head, "I think your current level is sufficient to handle life outside—I noticed you've learned the Loenese; are you preparing to live in Loen?"

"Yes," Shatas nodded casually, "Mobet wrote to say he's settled in Backlund, and I'm planning to go find him."

"Have you considered the travel expenses?" Edwina asked her.

A distinct pause appeared on Shatas's face; she seemed to have never considered this matter before. Edwina shook her head and told her, "I can let you leave anytime. If you wish, you can disembark the next time we dock. But I think before that, you'd better ask the others on board about the journey from here to Backlund— "

"Knock knock knock!"

She was speaking when there was a knock on the door. Edwina frowned slightly and said, "Come in."

Danitz Door Opening, and without even glancing inside, he blurted out, "Captain, I received Gehrman Sparrow. Gehrman said—"

His voice stopped, and his gaze fell on Shatas.

"What is she doing here again?!" he asked.

"I was talking to Shatas about her history," Edwina shook her head, "Go on."

"Why won't you talk to me?" Danitz asked instinctively.

"Talk to you about my historical achievements?" Shatas retorted sarcastically. "Danitz, who are you to me?"

Danitz blushed and corrected him, "No, I meant, talk to me about my historical achievements—"

"Your history is pretty good," Edwina shook her head, "but I think your math needs more work—"

"You can talk about math scores too," Danitz said.

He seemed to be willing to do anything to get the topic going. Edwina glanced at him thoughtfully, then said to Shatas, "You should go back now."

After Shatas, Shatas was about to leave when Danitz gave her a smug look, which Shatas returned with a look as if she were crazy. After Shatas left the room, Edwina finally spoke up, "In that case, let's talk about Gehrman Sparrow."

What does he want with you?

"I—" Danitz lowered his head and stammered, "Gehrman needs a Lantern, and he also asked me to ask you if you know of a method of rapid travel—one that can be replicated and doesn't require entering the Spirit World."

"Not relying on the Spirit World— " Edwina nodded slightly, her expression thoughtful.

"Mysticism Mentor" naturally acquire six to thirteen Mysticism from the "Omniscient" Authority holder upon their initial promotion. They can also acquire Mysticism through learning and self-creation. These Mysticism are diverse in form and effect, among which natural...

There are mobility techniques, even those that don't require entering the Spirit World, within the scope of her knowledge.

However, the fact that it can be replicated is a problem for Edwina. Forms such as Mysticism, Witchcraft, and Magic are similar to Divination; without Beyonder Pathway of improvement, it is almost impossible to learn them.

She didn't mind providing the relevant information on the Mysticism, but Gehrman Sparrow might not be able to replicate them. Therefore, Edwina pondered for a few seconds and said to Danitz, "Tell Gehrman Sparrow that Mysticism, Witchcraft, and Magic all have ways to do this, but he needs to have the ability to learn or Record."

"Okay." Danitz nodded.

He stood still. After waiting for about ten seconds, Edwina couldn't help but frown and ask, "Is there anything else?"

Danitz paused for a few seconds, then hesitantly asked, "Captain, are you—"

He hesitated, unwilling to elaborate. Edwina continued to frown at him, until finally he spoke, "Captain, do you think a woman who is attracted to the same sex would be interested in a woman who was transformed from a man?"
