Devil Warlock

Trier, Memorial Hall District, 9 Orosei Street, Apartment 702.

Franca woke up naturally, lazily got out of bed, and planned to casually eat a slice of toast with her book, waiting for a big lunch.

There haven't been any clues about the "Person in the Mirror" lately, and she's been living a very leisurely life.

Thank God, thank Earth, thank Mr. The Fool, that jinx Lumian has left Trier... Franca finished her pre-dinner prayer in this way.

She was drinking her Milk when Jenna returned from outside, pointed to the Coffee Table, and said, "Chazot Rabbit sent a letter this morning, from Lumian."

"A letter?" Franca's eyes narrowed, and her relaxed body suddenly tensed.

The Source of the Mad Sickness in Daddel has not yet been found, so what has happened this time?

"They said something happened in the capital of the Sea of Fog Archipelago, and he wants to find out the details. He hopes you can ask your official partner. You and that partner only contacted each other Late Night, so I didn't wake you up to check the message immediately. Anyway, we could only ask in the evening," Jenna explained briefly.

"How considerate! If it were that bastard Lumian, he would definitely knock on the door to wake me up!" Franca, who had been forcibly woken up by Lumian countless times, was extremely moved.

She immediately chuckled:

"He went to Falin Port, Falin Port something happened there too?"

"Although he implied it had nothing to do with him, but..."

At this point, Franca leaned back slightly and said, "What kind of walking Mysticism Calamity detector?"

Since it wasn't urgent, she planned to ask "007" in the Telegram group Late Night. After all, the other party was Official Beyonder in Trier and couldn't possibly know what was happening in the capital of the Sea of Fog Archipelago immediately. If she didn't actively inquire, she wouldn't even know.

True to her habit of instant messaging, Franca put down the Milk bottle and wrote a reply to Lumian, employing every possible form of teasing:

"If you want to know what happened, go investigate yourself. You're a walking Mysticism Calamity detector; you don't need clues or intelligence. Just wander aimlessly through the streets of Falin Port, and you might just bump into the person involved!"

"Hey, don't turn our correspondence into work communication. Just talk about what happened, what kind of help you need, share some interesting stories from the Sea, and let us know the pirates' bounties, is that not enough?"

"Hehe, ever since you left Trier, the winds have died down, the waves have calmed, and I can sleep in again. Go ahead and get your revenge, don't rush back. Let us know in advance if you need our help..."

Jenna watched thoughtfully as Franca wrote a letter that was nearly two pages long.

Falin Port, in cabin number 5 of First Class on the "Flying Bird".

Unable to go out, Lumian read Franca's reply and couldn't help but scoff.

This guy must have received so many complaints from "007," he's been trying to pin the blame for all the Mysticism Calamity on me.

After folding the letter, Lumian brought it to Ludwig's lips.

The little boy, who had just finished his dessert, glanced at him and said, "I'm not a paper shredder."

"I thought you ate everything." Lumian casually lit the letter, watching it turn to ashes and dissolve into the Sea Breeze blowing in through the window.

Not long after lunch ended, Philip entered with four soldiers in Blue with Gold Lines uniforms.

The leading officer held up rubbings of Lumian and the others' Identity Documents documents and compared them to the black-and-white photos.

"They came from Gati Port, just like you, and only arrived yesterday evening?" the officer asked, referring to Philip, whom he had already confirmed was safe and Trust.

"Yes, I watched them board the ship, and we bumped into each other quite frequently during the last two days." Philip didn't reveal that Lumian and the others' Identity Documents documents were fake.

That's wise... Otherwise, you'd see what real trouble is like... Lumian joked to himself.

In fact, if his disguise were to be exposed, his choice would have been to simply "Teleportation" away with Lugano and Ludwig, rather than making a big scene to announce the dazzling debut of the adventurer Louis Berri in the eyes of the world.

He simply idolized Gehrman Sparrow and would gladly Hunting pirates with the book, never intending to actually become an adventurer.

His purpose in setting sail was revenge!

After confirming the situation of Lumian and the other two, the officer led the soldiers to the next room, with Philip accompanying them.

Lumian could tell that their investigation of the "Flying Bird" was neither perfunctory nor dedicated; they simply followed the procedures rigorously without asking any unnecessary questions.

This makes sense, really. The explosion in the Black Pearl District last night and the subsequent abnormal Corpse couldn't have happened overnight. Even if it was just an accident, it was an accident that had been planned for a long time. Otherwise, it wouldn't have had such a wide impact. Unless the person involved is a Half-God, it's almost impossible for ordinary Police and soldiers to find out the whereabouts of Half-God.

This has nothing to do with the "Flying Bird" that just arrived in Falin Port last night; we just need to confirm the passengers' identities.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the Half-God was severely injured by the authorities last night and was unable to escape from Falin Port. In this case, a large-scale search would be useful, and there are currently no suspicious injured persons on the "Flying Bird".

The search of the "Flying Bird" lasted for nearly two hours. After several officers disembarked with twenty or thirty soldiers, Lumian came to the deck and questioned Philip:

What exactly happened last night?

Philip glanced around and said in a low voice, "I heard from my former colleagues that they're searching for ' Devil Warlock ' Bourman."

"Bourman?" Lumian made no attempt to hide his ignorance.

Last night, after only reading a portion of the wanted posters and learning about the current kings of the sea, Pirate Admiral, and a dozen or so major Great Pirate, he went drinking with Batna Comte.

"He was a wanted adventurer," Philip sighed. "Back when I hadn't left the Sea of Fog Fleet, he was still normal, chasing bounties and treasures. He met his wife, Helen, a Women adventurer. Later, Helen died in an accident, and Bourman went mad because of it. He wanted to Resurrection his wife and did many things, some good and some bad."

"He orchestrated the destruction of a town of three hundred people with utter ruthlessness and cruelty, all to fulfill the conditions of a certain Resurrection Ritual. He organized gatherings of Evil Warlock, intending to use the lives of others, especially Rebirth, to invent cruel and bloody witchcraft to Resurrection Helen... These deeds earned him a bounty exceeding that of ' The Bonebreaker ' Basil, reaching 600,000 Felkine."

To Resurrection his wife, he transformed into a cruel and ruthless "Devil Warlock"? Lumian suddenly felt a pang of sadness upon hearing this.

If Lady "Magician" hadn't found him, if the "The Fool" hadn't given him a glimmer of hope, and if the "Tarot Club" hadn't arranged for him to receive treatment from two powerful "Psychiatrist," would he have ended up like Bourman, bearing the nickname "The Devil"?

Moreover, by solely pursuing the path of Gift, he would clearly grow stronger much faster. With the help of Termiboros, he could become Sequence 5 "Fate Hunter" in just a few months, and the destruction of a town of three hundred people could potentially elevate him to the rank of "Person of the Loop".

"600,000 Felkine, that's almost as much as the lowest bounty on Pirate Admiral like ' Black Tide Vice Admiral ' Holly Sassen," Lumian said with a simple comparison.

"Black Tide Vice Admiral" is Great Pirate has only recently become famous, with a bounty of 700,000 Felkine.

Philip paused for a few seconds before saying, "Bourman isn't necessarily weaker than Holly Sassen, but he doesn't have his own fleet, he's always Alone, and occasionally he collaborates with those Evil Warlock. Yet, he always manages to escape official manhunts and successfully infiltrate towns where his wanted posters are displayed..."

From Philip's description, Lumian discovers that the "Devil Warlock" Bourman has a variety of abilities and is skilled at disguise.

This has the air of a true "Warlock," but he is also very skilled in necromancy. It is unclear whether this is due to his research on Resurrection or whether his original Sequence already possessed both the somewhat contradictory descriptions of "all-rounder" and "specialty."

The port closure prevented the "Flying Bird" from departing on schedule, leaving it stranded in Falin.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Lumian, having nothing to do, put on his newly bought Golden-yellow Straw Hat, left the ship where passengers and Sailor could now freely enter and exit, and entered Falin Port once again.

He plans to go check out the site of last night's explosion; maybe he can find some clues?

What was destroyed appeared to be a hospital; nearly half of it had collapsed, revealing a large crater leading to the Underground. Inside the remaining structure, there were scattered pieces of body parts, patches of fresh blood, and charred shadows that resembled human figures.

Since the official ban has been lifted, many adventurers have come here to investigate and seek clues. Lumian blended in among them, observing them inconspicuously.

"Louis, you're here too?" Suddenly, Lumian heard a familiar voice.

That was Batna Comte, carrying a large-caliber Revolver and an exquisite Rapier. He had carefully groomed his beard and hair and was dressed very elegantly.

"Yes," Lumian replied with a smile, "As an adventurer, how could I miss the grand event of hunting down the ' Devil Warlock '?"

"Our main job is to get some clues to exchange for money..." Batna muttered silently.

As he searched for clues in the battle scars, he casually asked, "Did you encounter those Resurrection Corpse last night?"

"I encountered it, and aside from being a bit scary, it wasn't anything special," Lumian said in a boastful tone.

Batna glanced at him and suddenly laughed, "Did anything happen to you after you left the Bar last night?"

Lumian replied casually, "I ran into a few Swindler and made a small fortune."

He'd made a small fortune... Batna was stunned.

He suddenly recalled Louis Berri's behavior at the Bar last night and a statement he had made earlier:

"Maybe they'll think I'm easy to bully?"
