Without needing further confirmation, his spirituality and spiritual perception had told him that this was the real spirit world!
And this meant that he had returned to the real world, the place with all kinds of delicacies.
Klein already had a choice he was leaning towards. He took out the iron cigar case, which appeared to be inside his pocket, but was actually lodged under a rubber band. He opened it and took out the gold coin inside.
“Returning to 160 Böklund Street is dangerous,” Klein muttered seven times, and with a flick, he saw it slowly spin in the spirit world, wobbling up and down, left and right, before landing on his palm.
This time, it was tails, indicating a negative response!
Klein nodded indiscernibly and immediately traveled towards Backlund.
After three stops, his figure finally appeared in his room at 160 Böklund Street. The curtains were drawn tightly and it was dim. It was very suitable for sleeping.
And on the bed, Dwayne Dantès was lying on the bed facing up. His hands were grabbing the ends of the blanket near his neck.
Water ripples appeared on the mirror’s surface as silver light bloomed and turned into Loenese text:
“Exalted Great Master, did you encounter something? Your loyal and humble servant, Arrodes, failed to sense you before!”
“It wasn’t anything important,” Klein answered perfunctorily.
This made him confirm that Arrodes was unable to pry into the secrets that happened in the foggy town. After all, this fellow was able to present the environment where the rampaging Zaratul was.
“No, no one came to disturb you.” The silver on the mirror’s surface changed and produced new words.
Klein felt truly relieved as he said to Arrodes, “You may leave. I’ll summon you again if needed.”
“Alright, Master. Goodbye, Master~” Like before, Arrodes produced a drawing of a hand waving on the mirror.
After the aqueous light vanished, the mirror was restored to normal. Klein walked to the bedside and pulled out the pajamas underneath and wore it.
Then, he took out candles and other items before entering the bathroom. He set up a sacrificial ritual, preparing to send Creeping Hunger, Azik’s copper whistle, the iron cigar case, and the various mysticism materials above the gray fog to avoid any investigations he might face.
After doing all of this, Klein didn’t delay and sat at The Fool’s seat. He conjured the Bizarro Sorcerer’s potion formula in front of him.
“Sequence 4: Bizarro Sorcerer.
“Main ingredient: Bizarro Bane’s main eye, the true soul body of a Spirit World Plunderer.
“Supplementary ingredients: 200 ml of a Bizarro Bane’s blood, 30 grams of a Spirit World Plunderer, 10 grams of Red-hair Birch bark. One segment of golden grapevines, fingernail-sized Self-made Rubber Mask.
“Advancement ritual: Relying on one’s strength and strategy, orchestrate a grand performance before many spectators to kill a Beyonder creature at the level of a demigod. Then, at the end of the performance, consume the potion.”
Klein didn’t consider what this ritual actually meant. Beneath the potion formula, he wrote a corresponding statement.
Following that, he summoned a spirit pendulum from the junk pile. Holding it in his left hand, he began a divination.
Before long, Klein opened his eyes and saw the dangling topaz rotating clockwise.
This meant that the Bizarro Sorcerer potion formula he had was genuine!
After a dream divination and several direct attempts, he figured out the exact situation in less than two minutes.
Creeping Hunger could now Graze seven souls. During each Grazing process, it could obtain two or three Beyonder powers. One of them can be chosen by the wearer.
Now, Creeping Hunger had to eat a living person every day, otherwise it would devour the wearer. At the same time, it would praise the True Creator from time to time in the wearer’s mind. It would bring about chaotic thoughts and a headache. Apart from those two, it was also still afraid of mushrooms. No powers could be used if mushrooms appeared within five meters of it.
He also planned on swapping the Wind-blessed and Doctor later. The Demoness of Affliction depended on the circumstances.
To the side of the bronze table, the Soul Assurer’s spirit surfaced. But due to the mutation, it couldn’t be maintained once it lost its host. It rapidly dissipated.
His Beyonder characteristic was produced. It was entirely black in color. At its core was pure shimmering light that looked like a night sky with embedded stars.
After doing this, Klein didn’t hesitate to throw Creeping Hunger and the other items into the junk pile. He then quickly returned to the real world, ended the ceremony, and cleared up any traces.
Following that, he washed his face and brushed his teeth to make Dwayne Dantès look sharp.
After leaving the bathroom, Klein, in his pajamas, walked to the door with his usual expression. He pulled open the door and said to his valet outside, “Prepare a set of clothes that’s suitable for home wear.”
“Yes, sir.” Richardson didn’t ask why as he immediately walked to the wardrobe.
Only at this point, with him seeing his servant’s back, did Klein confirm that he was out of harm’s way and had returned back to his normal life.
