Backlund, Cherwood Borough.

Inside the two ladies' residence, Fors emerged groggily from the Bedroom and settled into a comfortable position on the Sofa.

As she recalled the events of the gathering, a look of Affliction gradually appeared on her face.

"I should have tried asking Mr. Fool for leave!" Fors slammed his fist on the Cushion in frustration, then struggled to get up again to write to his teacher.

In her letter, she described in detail her thoughts on playing the role of a "Trickmaster" during this period and sincerely asked her teacher for guidance.

At the same time, I told the other party that I had just attended that Concealment gathering and subtly urged them to hurry up with the Beyonder Characteristic I had mentioned before.

Finally, she complained a few times about the cold and damp weather in Backlund, inquired about her teacher's health, and then put down her pen with satisfaction.

Fors quickly scanned the envelopes and stamps, confirming there were no grammatical errors or spelling Error, and then retrieved them from the storage shelf in the Living Room.

A moment later, she placed the letter on the Tea Table and lay back down.

Ask Hugh to drop the mailbox for me when he goes out, and then I just wait for the teacher's reply... The Wireless Telegraph has to be bought tomorrow, cough, the day after tomorrow at the latest. Mr. "World" gave me a strange look just now... I should have known better than to take this job, anyway, I would have been on vacation in the south at that time...

Fors covered his face with his hands and made a frustrated "Ugh".

Sigh... She put these annoying trifles aside for the time being and began to carefully filter the information in the Free Exchange Session.

Miss Audrey shared her life on the estate and her daily routine of hunting with her pet dogs, and I could tell that everyone envied her.

I don't know why, but Mr. Fool seemed to be listening with great interest. Strange, would such an ancient being be interested in this kind of thing?

I also have a dog, cough, although it's just boarding, but unfortunately, I don't have Manor where it can run freely and chase prey.

Mr. World didn't share anything; he simply listened quietly.

Mr. Hanged Man recounted several events at sea, the most significant of which was that a Pirate nicknamed "Flower Bow Tie" killed a Pirate nicknamed "Bonebreaker," whose strength was suspected to be Sequence 5. As a result, the former's Bounty skyrocketed to an astonishing 8,500 pounds.

£8,500!

This huge sum of money could buy several properties in Backlund!

All my savings combined amounted to just over 3,000 pounds, which already made Hugh drool with envy, but it was still less than half of this Great Pirate's Bounty.

Also, the ocean is really dangerous!

A powerful Beyonder at Sequence 5 has died just like that.

Mr. Moon argued with Mr. Sun for another ten minutes or so, almost making Mr. Sun forget to tell me the important matter.

He has located several Monster gathering places and contacted friends to participate in the hunt. He should be able to pay off a large amount of debt by next Monday at the latest.

It seems this is the only good news... Fors finished his debriefing, muttered under his breath, stuffed Cushion under his head, and a playful smile appeared on his lips.

She decided not to write to him for now... She would surprise him when she came back next time... Thinking this, she chuckled and closed her eyes.

When I regained consciousness, it was already dark.

Half asleep, Fors felt the warmth of the body and thought she was in her Bedroom bed, so she stretched and rolled over to the side.

Thump!

Hugh and Albert, who were practicing their fighting skills in an empty room, heard a loud noise. They went outside and saw Fors sitting on the floor wrapped in a quilt, looking completely bewildered.

Hugh let out a mocking laugh without any restraint, then slipped and fell.

Thump!

--This is the "Trickmaster's" "Falling Technique".

Albert felt a chill run down his spine for no apparent reason. He quickly shut his grin, obediently squatted down, and adopted a very serious expression.

When Fors turned his gaze toward him, he wagged his tail happily.

Late at night in Bayam, the "City of Generosity".

Inside the luxurious suite of the "Azure Wind" Inn, Klein suddenly opened his eyes, got out of bed, and took a Gold Coins from his coat pocket.

He quickly took four steps backward to reach the Above the Gray Fog, and whispered the divination words:

"Kalvetua is completely dead."

He flicked the Gold Coins away with his fingers seven times in a row.

Clang!

The king's portrait is facing upwards!

This means that "Sea God" Kalvetua is completely dead!

The Mental Pollution worthy of the "True Creator" has finally crushed the last straw for Kalvetua, which was on the verge of destruction. The Military and the Church's Beyonder are still searching for four fake Archaeologist. Does this mean I've already gotten ahead of them, ahead of "Sea King"?

As this thought flashed through his mind, Klein felt a complex mix of emotions, including a vague sense of being flattered and a frenzied excitement.

He took a deep breath and switched to Pendulum Method divination:

"It's dangerous for me to explore Kalvetua's hideout in my Spirit Body form."

After seven repetitions, the Yellow Crystal began to rotate counterclockwise.

The speed was not fast, and the amplitude was not large.

There was a certain degree of danger, but it was bearable... Klein nodded almost imperceptibly and returned to the Real World to summon himself.

The "Black Emperor" Spirit Body entered the Spirit World and, using the items previously Sacrifice as sacrifices, located Kalvetua's hiding place through divination.

Soon, Klein saw a partially obscured, collapsed building.

"Leave!"

Relying on the high status of the "Black Emperor" card, he successfully scared away the giant Spirit World Creature guarding the building and entered the ruins.

Surprised that things went so smoothly, Klein was overjoyed but forced himself to Calmness down and proceed with caution with the upcoming exploration.

Stone gates, passages, steps... He fought his way through the gates as if playing a game from before his transmigration, using Sealed Artifact to defeat wave after wave of "Sea God Guardians," finally arriving at a magnificent hall supported by a stone pillar, but which had collapsed in most places, where he saw the unimaginably large, blue-green Sea Serpent Corpse.

It emitted specks of blue-green light, which were slowly coalescing towards a certain sharp fang.

Swish!

As a "Seer," Klein's sharp gaze turned toward the source of the hostility, where he saw the Old Priest, his belly bulging and his mouth full of blood, staring at him.

The final boss... He narrowed his eyes and took the initiative to attack without hesitation.

Once you eliminate the opponent, everything here will be yours!

A moment later, Klein finished off the Old Priest and the remaining spirit of Kalvetua within him with a "Holy Light Descent".

Having satisfied its "Creeping Hunger," Klein gazed at the enormous, bluish-green Snake Corpse, watching it collapse with a thud, having lost the support of its extraordinary power.

All the Beyonder Characteristic rushed into that fang, and its appearance quickly changed, becoming a short staff with a blue-green gemstone at its tip.

Some of them are tinged with deep black, while others are tinged with the light of dawn.

Sealed Artifact at the Demigod level—no, perhaps "Sealed Artifact" would be a more fitting description! Klein's thoughts raced as he headed straight for the hall, approaching cautiously.

However, when they were only a dozen meters apart, his pupils suddenly contracted.

The short staff has vanished!
