Spirit Harmonica

In fact, because of Lockhart Siakam, the Duke Negan's Secretary, Kronos didn't have a good opinion of these Secretary who came from MI9.

But to my surprise, this Lü Er'an seems to be quite a good Secretary.

As a highly Spirituality Sequence, Kronos was able to sense some things; Lü Er'an just now didn't seem like acting.

Kronos smiled and shook his head. What did this have to do with him? This wasn't his Secretary.

He turned and got into the carriage, gave the driver the address of the Inn, and then set off.

With nothing else to do on the road, Kronos began to examine the False Identity that Lü Er'an had made for him.

Carlson Norman, 31, a bounty Hunter born in East Chester County, had always been an ordinary man until he came to sea last year and eventually reached Bayam.

Having witnessed the power of Beyonder, he aspired to become Beyonder, but lacking the means to do so, he eventually joined a gathering organized by locals.

Unfortunately, on his first attempt, he was arrested by government officials. This arrest was carried out with the assistance of the military and the Church of Storms, so Carlson was imprisoned in a naval prison.

Less than three days after entering prison, these ordinary people who had participated in the party all became Loss of Control to varying degrees, so they were all separated and detained.

In the end, some people returned to normal, while others completely Loss of Control, and Carlson was in the latter group.

Because they were imprisoned separately, not many people knew who lived and who died, so Lü Er'an assigned this identity to Kronos.

This document contains more than just these brief introductions; it also includes a very detailed and verifiable biography of Carlson.

This person is a perfect fit for Kronos to impersonate. The reason he left his hometown to go to sea was because his last relative had passed away, and he had no close friends left in East Chester.

As Kronos looked at Carlson's appearance in the data, the Vampire Mask on his face slowly wriggled, eventually becoming exactly like Carlson's.

"From this day forward, I am Carlson," Kronos thought.

He plans to follow Mr. Fool's "matryoshka doll method," where Mr. Fool uses Gehrman to trap Sherlock, then Klein, while Kronos intends to trap Klein to trap Carlson, then himself.

However, the difference is that Gehrman Sparrow couldn't withstand scrutiny, and neither could Sherlock Moriarty; otherwise, Leonard Mitchell wouldn't have guessed it in the end.

However, Carlson's identity was traceable, with leads found all the way to East Chester. Therefore, this identity could be completely separated from Kronos, and he could continue using it even after returning to Backlund.

Kronos nodded; this Secretary Lü Er'an was indeed very reliable in his work.

If what he said is true, then only he and Admiral Amyrius know this identity, which makes things much safer.

When he reaches Sequence 5, he will return to the sea, since he needs to find Cattleya to exchange for the Mysticologist's Potion Formula, which he can then continue to use.

Kronos was hoping to make a name for himself at sea. How interesting it would be if, when Klein, under the Gehrman Sparrow, arrived at sea, he discovered a great man with the same name.

Throughout Lord of the Mysteries, what Kronos envied most was the state of the President of the Psychology Alchemists, Baoli Dellau, who had several identities and used them to move around.

If he hadn't been truly courting death, he wouldn't have gotten killed by Klein.

Back at the Inn, Kronos lost all interest in doing anything and simply threw himself onto the bed, falling into a deep, unbearable sleep.

After waking up, Kronos felt refreshed and asked the waiter to prepare a meal, which he ate in his room.

He even asked the waiter if Gner had returned, but received a negative answer.

That's true. This trip back will take at least eight or nine hours, which is not enough time at all. Besides, we can't stay up all night to travel; we'll need to rest for a night along the way.

As he watched the Sun rise, Kronos strolled along the most bustling street in Bayam.

Since it was not yet nine o'clock in the morning, most of the shops on the street were still closed and not open for business, but you could already see people busy inside.

Kronos's destination was Sharf's residence, and Kronos chose to walk there because it was not far away.

After walking for less than half an hour, Kronos arrived at Sharf's door. After ringing the doorbell, he stood at the door and waited quietly.

After a long while, a sleepy-eyed person came and opened the door.

"Sharf, it's been a long time! How have you been?"

The sleepy-eyed person rubbed their eyes and said, "Stop with your polite formalities; we've only been apart for four or five days."

Kronos said with a serious expression, "That's not right. Even if we haven't seen each other for a few days, I can still miss you a lot."

This time, Sharf didn't even have the desire to speak. He rolled his eyes and walked into the house.

Seeing Sharf's attitude, Kronos said nothing and followed him inside.

Sharf went straight to the room where he crafted Beyonder Item. Having learned from his previous experience, Kronos didn't go there at all, but instead sat down on the sofa in the Reception Room and waited for Sharf to come out.

About ten minutes later, Sharf came out of the room carrying two things: an opaque bag in one hand, the contents of which were not visible, and a small black box in the other.

Before reaching the sofa, Sharf first tossed the bag directly into Kronos's arms.

"I must say, this leather of yours is really good; it's much better than the materials I used before."

Kronos opened the bag, and inside was none other than a large pile of small leather bags, clearly Triangular Bayonet leather bags based on their size.

They were all made from the hide of the Evil-Patterned Black Panther, and there was even some left over—a small half-piece was at the very bottom of the bag.

"Watch your mouth, what do you mean by 'this skin'? It should be 'this skin of my Evil-Patterned Black Panther '," Kronos said, expressing his displeasure.

"It's all the same, didn't you understand?"

Kronos stopped dwelling on the matter and instead asked, "How many are there?"

Sharf said, "Thirty in total. Adding the ones I gave you before, I believe that should be enough for you. It's mainly because Gner told me that this piece of skin has other uses, so I kept half for you."

I originally intended to use this Kronos; it's a great material for making Charm, whether it's the Darkness Pathway or the Fool Pathway.

However, since it has such remarkable effects here, we naturally can't neglect other aspects while focusing on this one.

After putting away the leather bags, Kronos turned his gaze to another item in Sharf's hand: the small black box.

The only thing he had left with Sharf was the Spirit Guide's Beyonder Characteristic. Since he needed to create Beyonder Item for the contracted Messenger, the only thing he could bring out was this.

"Look at your personality, can't you just be a little calmer?" Sharf said nonchalantly.

Kronos retorted without hesitation, "You have no idea what your eyes and demeanor were like when you looked at this Beyonder Characteristic. How dare you criticize me like that?"

That one sentence left Sharf speechless. Indeed, if it weren't for that, he wouldn't have been discovered by Kronos.

Sharf quickly changed the subject. "This Beyonder Item was crafted using the Beyonder Characteristic of that Spirit Guide, and I named it the Spirit Harmonica." As he spoke, he opened the box in his hand, revealing a pure black harmonica.

"This harmonica has two abilities. One is to intimidate the Undead. As long as it is played, it can completely intimidate all Undead with Sequence level lower than this harmonica. As for those with higher levels, it can also effectively weaken their status."

"The second is the contract. This harmonica can not only form a contract with the summoning Messenger, but also with some Undead and Nature Spirit. Then you can command these spirits to fight."

"However, there's one thing: this harmonica can only support five contracts. So if you exceed that, the previous contracts will gradually become invalid. Also, once a contract is signed, it cannot be actively terminated."

This means that once Kronos uses it to make contracts with other Undead and exceeds the limit, the Messenger he initially contracted may lose contact.

"And what about the negative effects?" Kronos asked.

"Because this is a Sequence 6 item, everything is still under my control. The negative effects aren't too severe; it's just that the more you use it, the stronger the Undead aura will become on your body. If it gets too strong, you'll become Undead."

Then Sharf quickly added, "If you've reached that level, you've probably used it thousands of times already, so you don't need to worry."

Kronos took the Spirit Harmonica and continued, "Does it have the ability to directly summon Messenger for me?"

He asked this because he remembered that Klein had created a harmonica that could directly summon Messenger.

Sharf stroked his chin. "That's a good idea. If you need it, I can add it to the list for you. It's just a small feature, and it can be done in one night."

"Didn't you initially want a Messenger too? How did it go? How was the result?" Kronos changed the subject.

Sharf said haughtily, "Using an employer's Beyonder Item without their permission is a serious breach of professional ethics."

Seeing Sharf's current state, Kronos couldn't help but burst out laughing.
