The identity behind the alias was exposed

After a moment of silence, "Justice" Audrey asked incredulously, "Miss Magician, you said the Gentleman Thief ' Black Emperor ' is dead?"

"The Sun" Derrick glanced at the others, then lowered his head and remained silent.

Alger the Hanged Man remained silent, subtly pondering the relationship between Miss Magician and the Gentleman Thief Black Emperor.

At the same time, he quietly observed "the world" and the figure at the very top.

I originally thought the Gentleman Thief "Black Emperor" was "the world," but now it seems that's not the case... This must be one of His most valued Blessed...

What would He do...? He secretly wondered what the "Fool's" reaction would be.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, "The Fool" Klein suddenly felt a little uneasy and regretted his momentary soft-heartedness.

If I had known the "Magician" would throw such a difficult question at me right away, I would have let her cry.

Don't look at me!

There must be some misunderstanding! The Gentleman Thief "Black Emperor" is not dead at all, okay? Besides, I don't even know Miss "Magician" in real life!

Seeing that Mr. Fool remained as unresponsive as usual, the group then looked at the Magician.

Fors sighed inwardly, and mustered her courage to speak:

"In short, that's roughly the situation."

I will avenge him!

"Currently, the compensation I can offer includes transferring the debts of Mr. Sun and Ms. Justice, £1,500 in Cash, and a commitment to raise at least £1,000 in Cash within three months, along with the Formula for Sequence 9 and Sequence 8 of Pathway ' Apprentice ' and ' Arbiter ' Pathway."

She paused briefly at this point, then gritted her teeth and said:

The materials that can be paid for include: "Lion-Man Brain", "Bewitching Insect Swarm Adult Insect", "Deep Sea Marlin Blood", and "Spirit Eater's Stomach".

"And also, this Sealed Artifact that can traverse the Spirit World."

Fors removed the Bracelet from her wrist, which now only had two stones left, and explained, "It still has two more uses."

As she spoke, she turned to look at the "Fool" at the head of the table. "If you are willing to lend a hand, I can hold the Sacrificial Ritual when we return."

He then looked around at the others:

"If you can accomplish this, the reward will remain the same."

The Gray Fog fell silent once more.

"Has the Magician gone mad?" Alger Hanged Man, couldn't help but be secretly shocked.

At the same time, I was also very tempted.

To put it simply, the debts of "The Sun" and "Justice" alone amount to a huge sum!

Roughly calculated, "The Sun" owes her two Sequence 6 Formula, one Sequence 7 Formula, and one Sequence 7 Beyonder Characteristic, worth approximately £6,000.

Even after deducting the amount already paid, there is still about £4,500 left.

Adding the £3,000 from "Justice" and the £2,500 she paid herself, the Cash portion alone is almost over £10,000!

The materials and Formula are worth approximately three thousand pounds.

Including that Sealed Artifact that could be used as a life-saving trump card, the "Magician's" Bounty Amount is at least over 15,000 pounds!

If I get this money, I won't have to worry about money until Advancement Sequence 4... He couldn't wait to speed up and return to land.

"Goddess..." Audrey Justice also finished settling accounts, thought to herself.

The price offered by this friend in the Real World far exceeded the fee he had paid to have Mr. A assassinate Intis Ambassador.

Sigh, she even brought out the Beyonder Characteristic and Sealed Artifact she had just acquired. The Gentleman Thief "Black Emperor" must be very important to her.

Could he be the man I suspected earlier?

Poor Fors...

Audrey remained silent; she knew perfectly well she couldn't accomplish this, and could only look expectantly towards "the world," "the Hanged Man," and "the Fool."

"Sun" glanced at the "Magician" lady who had been of great help to him, then lowered his head and remained silent, praying for her in silence.

"The Fool" Klein was shrouded in thick Gray Fog, his gaze unwavering as he repeatedly performed divination, trying to pinpoint the murderer.

This matter has nothing to do with payment.

If you remain unmoved when your Blessed die, who will still have faith in you?!

Suddenly, he saw a picture:

It was a room with shattered glass, and flames could be vaguely seen outside. The layout and furnishings looked strangely familiar.

Klein was slightly taken aback, but quickly came to his senses.

This is the room where the Human Trafficker Capim used to store his Safe.

The scene changes.

Klein saw a handsome man swagger in, skillfully open the Safe, and take away the Pound, Jewelry, and antiques inside.

Then, the other person chuckled and muttered to themselves:

"The nickname is yours, the Pound is mine."

Damn it... At that moment, only that sentence remained in Klein's mind.

Although the other person did not name anyone, my Spirituality intuition told me that they were referring to me!

The nickname is his, the Pound are his!

It turns out that Capim's wealth wasn't divided up by the investigators later, but rather that someone had already gotten there before he even entered the room!

No wonder the "Black Emperor" was inexplicably given the prefix "Gentleman Thief" before!

Huff... Klein exhaled forcefully and continued looking down.

He saw himself, completely unaware, slip into the Safe, go around in circles, and then come out again. The other person followed behind him and picked up a "The Lovers" card.

"It was you again..." Klein's lips twitched slightly.

At that moment, he saw the screen suddenly shatter, and a bad feeling arose in his heart. He quickly tossed a coin in his hand.

Clang!

Head up!

This means he is definitely still alive!

"Miss Magician" seems to like him... That posture just now, tsk tsk... Klein silently teased, gently tapping the mottled long table.

The tapping sound echoed through the Gray Fog fog.

Everyone, including Fors, looked toward the head of the long table.

"The Fool" Klein chuckled softly:

"The prerequisite for revenge is..."

He's dead.

A question mark slowly rose in everyone's mind.

Fors paused for a few seconds, then suddenly stood up. "You mean he's not dead? Then why are the Newspaper all saying that?"

The Newspaper... Audrey, the "Justice," and Klein, the "Fool," both in Backlund, immediately thought of the two obituaries on the front page.

"Is this guy on the list of casualties?" thought "Fool" Klein.

However, Audrey, Justice knew more about Fors, immediately focused her suspicions on Raven.

The two were in the same profession... "Raven" was tall and handsome... Fors had subconsciously taken his hand... Past moments replayed in her mind.

It turns out he's the Gentleman Thief "Black Emperor"!

The "Hanged Man" felt a slight pang of regret, knowing he would never have the chance to earn such a lucrative reward again, but he didn't feel the trip had been in vain.

At least he confirmed one thing again:

Mr. Fool's Blessed are indeed active in the Real World.

This "Magician," who witnessed the entire process of joining, knew one of the Blessed, codenamed the Gentleman Thief "Black Emperor."

Moreover, the two have a very close relationship, suggesting they might be partners.

Alger paused for a moment, then tentatively asked:

"Miss Magician, you seem to know him in the Real World?"
