What's up with this subtitle? Since it's already been discovered, why not just tell everyone "You guessed it right"?
Klein, who had nothing to fear in every sense, casually picked up the Coke on the table and thought about something completely unrelated: The owner of this space must be able to hear what each of us is thinking right now, otherwise why would he appear on the table the moment I thought of the Coke?
*...What on earth did Klein go through?" Benson looked at the beautiful woman on the screen with a very complicated expression.
After not seeing each other for many years, my younger brother turned into my younger sister?
Leonard didn't look at his former colleague who had transformed into a woman. He tried to focus his attention elsewhere. He subconsciously replied, "Maybe she experienced a witch."
As far as he knew, Klein did often encounter things related to witches, and the witch path could turn men into real women.
Now, some people's expressions have become even more strange. "Witch?" Melissa remembered that Klein had mentioned this in the previous video, but at that time they were all focusing on potions and Beyonders, so no one discussed the topic.
"That's one of the 22 Extraordinary Paths. Sequence 9 is the Assassin."
Edwina, no longer able to suppress her urge to lecture, "Sequence 7 of this path is the Witch. Males who take the potion will be transformed into females. Furthermore, both men and women will experience enhanced appearance and charm afterward."
Hearing this, Melissa trembled as she pointed at the charming woman on the screen and looked at Leonard: "Is Klein still a man now?"
Realizing his words had caused misunderstanding, Leonard nodded quickly, "It's a man! I mean Klein has encountered many things related to witches."
Even though she helped me prove my gender, it doesn't sound normal to always encounter witches. Klein frowned slightly.
To reassure the siblings, Leonard continued, "He has the ability to change his appearance, just like Hermann, but he looks like a different person."
"That's good. Melissa breathed a sigh of relief. Although he thought that as long as Klein was still alive, he didn't ask for anything else, and even if his appearance changed, it wouldn't matter, but it would still be a bit awkward if his gender changed. Fortunately, these were all disguises. He was still the same, and even his personality hadn't changed much.
....It's just that the disguise is too good. If no one had known that it was. Klein in disguise, no one would have noticed the problem!
Klein, with his name still on his head, was brought onto the ship and fell silent in front of the wardrobe filled with dresses.
No, it shouldn't be like this... I thought I could just see Tracy straight away, but why did it end up like this? Wearing women's clothes is too embarrassing. I can't do it! Calm down! This is the last moment, we can't let this go to waste!
Anyway, no one will know about this. If they do find out, it'll be Gehrman Sparrow in drag. As long as I don't use this identity anymore, it won't be my fault...
If Klein's inner thoughts hadn't stopped, everyone would have thought the video was paused.
Haha, back then I thought no one would know, but now everyone knows, right? I even thought about changing my identity once I left the sea, but I've been using the identity of German until now.
Klein sadly discovered that he had a certain talent for flag-planting.
Are you going to wear a skirt? No, Audrey, you can't get excited about this! Think of something else... Well, Mr. World's ability is really convenient. He can change his appearance at will. Even if he did something he didn't want to admit, he can just change his identity and pretend nothing happened…
Audrey's thoughts diverge. Although the situation in the "world" is somewhat different from what I had thought before, he is still a dangerous enough character. Even without considering the special fact that he is watched by the gods, his ability to remain calm in any situation is enough to make people wary, because others have no way of knowing his true thoughts.
This actually made Alger even more wary of Klein. Cattleya pondered: It seems that this is the process of his assassination of Tracy. As expected, even the "world" cannot be without psychological burden for such things, and his true character seems to be more gentle and introverted. But why would he rather pretend to be a woman to get close to Tracy?
Azik knew why Klein was working so hard, and he felt helpless but relieved about it. After a moment of self-comfort, Klein closed his eyes and reached for the closet. Then the scene flashed, showing Klein, dressed in women's clothing, entering Tracy's room.
"Where's the changing scene?" Danitz asked subconsciously. Noticing the strange looks others gave him, he quickly explained, "I didn't want to see him change clothes. I just wanted to see him wear women's clothing."
Everyone's looks became even weirder, and Klein even chuckled.Azik appeared in Gehrman's room through the spirit world, and the stern-faced adventurer showed obvious joy: "Good evening, Mr. Azik."
Azik looked at himself on the screen with curiosity, and recalled what happened afterwards.
I thought he wouldn't have any other expression as long as he was in front of Hermann's face! Leonard was indignant. Even when they met privately, Klein always looked like Gehrman and refused to say a word. Why did he not care about his personality and habits when he was in front of Azik?
Benson and Melissa saw a familiar shadow in this smile. The gentle young man often became so happy because of some small things.
Although the others were mentally prepared, they were used to Hermann's usual behavior, and suddenly seeing him show such an expression still felt very uncomfortable.
"I already have my own messenger." Gehrman's tone rose slightly, like a student eager to show off his achievements.
*Faster than I thought." Azik responded to the student's expectations with a smile.
"I have no impression of this spirit creature, but since you've signed a contract, witnessed by the underworld, she shouldn't pose any threat to you. However, until you understand her thoroughly, try not to use her except to deliver messages."
Sharon's eyes wavered: Teacher, is this how you become a messenger?
Anderson recalled that the only time he met the messenger, he almost got killed because of his bad mouth, and he rarely showed fear on his face.
Mr. World's process of contracting a courier was so interesting. When will I be able to have my own courier? Audrey was looking forward to it.
When Alger heard that a messenger needed a gold coin to deliver a letter, he remembered that the "world" had repeatedly stated that the best reward was gold coins. Was this prepared for that messenger?
Leonard's mind was sharp for once: She? Klein didn't know the messenger was an angel back then? But wasn't he Mr. Fool's favored one? And a special one at that. Did Mr. Fool not notice, or did he not tell him for some other reason?
When Fors heard the messenger, she recalled the time when "The World" was in the God-forsaken Land. She had lived like a tool, and a shadow suddenly fell on her heart.
Danitz realized something belatedly: the courier only said that each delivery would require a gold coin as payment, but Gehrman said that the gold coin was required for the ritual, and I had to prepare it every time I sent or received a letter... He lied to me just to save this one gold coin every time?!
After discussing the messenger, Gerhman changed the subject: "Mr. Azik, when do we depart for the Black Death?"
"Now." Azik stood up and put on his top hat.
Gehrman then stood up, Azik reached out and grabbed his shoulder, and the two of them entered the spirit world together.
Is that so direct? I thought I'd need to confirm if there was any danger first... Maybe the Boss has already confirmed it using his own method
Boss? Azik laughed at Klein's inner thoughts, but it sounded good. After all, he always had to protect his students.
I didn't expect their relationship to be so... close? I'm afraid Klein has received a lot of help from Mr. Azik. Benson suppressed the urge to look at Azik.
After finding the Black Death, Gehrman first changed into another form before letting Azik bring him to Tracy.
As soon as she appeared, a soft female voice that did not belong to Tracy sounded: "Is it you?"
Who? Did she recognize me? Klein was surprised. Impossible. I've become Vice Admiral Hurricane Qilingos, and inside Qilingos is the crazy adventurer Gehrman Sparrow, and inside Gehrman Sparrow is the great detective Sherlock Moriarty, and inside Sherlock Moriarty is Klein Moretti.]
"Is he Sherlock Moriarty?"
"How many identities does he have?"
Emlyn and Melissa's voices rang out at the same time.
Leonard glanced at Emlyn, then at Melissa, and finally turned around to answer Emlyn's question first: "Don't you know?"
Emlyn subconsciously asked, "Should I know?"
The two fell into silence, looking at each other in confusion.
After a few seconds, Leonard asked again: "Don't you have a good relationship with Sherlock?"
"But ever since he said he was going to Dixie Bay for vacation, I haven't heard from him again!" Emlyn got angry when he mentioned this. He still regarded Sherlock as one of his rare friends.
Then he pointed at Sharon and Maric at the same table: "Besides, they are also very familiar with Sherlock. Do they know about this too?"
Maric looked a little embarrassed. Sharon, still expressionless, answered him, "Before Sherlock left, he asked me to help him get a fake identity as a sea adventurer."
"I accepted her commission and then obtained Gehrman Sparrow's identity, " Bernadette continued.
Sharon glanced at Bernadette, but still didn't recognize her identity. Emlyn's expression changed from shock to dullness to grief and anger, and Klein couldn't help but reflect on whether he had gone too far with this vampire.
*Since you all knew, why didn't anyone tell me?" Emlyn felt like a fool when he remembered that he had specially invited German to cooperate with Sharon and the others.
Benson and Melissa seemed to see themselves just as confused and helpless when they first learned of Klein's identity. While this was good news for them, it could be bad news for this gentleman.
Maric looked at Emlyn sympathetically. "Since he didn't tell you himself, we didn't say anything."
"I-I want to break up with him!" The simple vampire expressed his anger.
Mr. World really loves using fake identities. No wonder I always felt like he was wearing a thick mask when I was treating him. What is the real Mr. World like? I'm afraid even his family can't understand him now. Audrey suddenly felt an uncontrollable sadness in her heart.
After Emlyn finished his questions, Melissa repeated her question to Leonard: "What other identity does Klein have?"
Leonard looked confused: "You ask me? I don't know either."
"But I see you know him very well. Melissa didn't quite believe him, after all, he had deceived her once not long ago.
"You were colleagues before Klein's accident, and it seems you're still in touch. You knew he became Gehrman and went to sea, and you knew he was Sherlock. You even know who he was close to during his time as Sherlock. What else don't you know about Klein?"
Leonard held it in for a long time before saying aggrievedly, "Apart from these, I don't know anything else. Besides, even these things took me a long time to find out!"
Melissa still had some doubts, but she had no evidence, so she couldn't continue to dwell on the matter.
Azik hesitated for two seconds and said, "Do you know me?"
The tone is quite uncertain... Could it be that the boss spent part of his life with a witch? No, I can't think that way...]
Did I even think about this at the time?! Klein didn't dare to look at Azik's expression.
After hearing the voice in the video, the others couldn't help but observe Azik's reaction: the mysterious boss first showed obvious surprise, then shook his head slightly, with a helpless and gentle smile, and he didn't look angry at all.
Benson awkwardly apologized to Azik, "I'm so sorry. Klein is ignorant. Please don't blame him." He already knew what the witch represented and was aware of how disrespectful this idea was, so he took the initiative to apologize on his brother's behalf.
Benson... Klein wanted to speak, but remained silent.
Azik smiled back, "It's nothing. I don't care."
A figure slowly appeared beside Tracy. She looked at Azik and smiled faintly, "Over a thousand years have passed, and we're still alive to meet. This is worth celebrating. Mr. 'Death Archon' of the Balam Empire."
Before anyone could react to what the "Archon of Death" represented, the image on the screen suddenly vanished. Simultaneously, a white dot of light appeared beneath the black space. The non-glaring white light quickly spread until it filled the entire space.
The calm voice said, "Now we're going to have a break. You can move freely. When I think you've rested enough, I'll remind you to continue watching the movie."
After the words fell, no one acted rashly for a moment, and everyone was silently analyzing the significance of this situation.
Audrey observed the space, which had turned white, and compared the two: "This space seems to have a certain psychological effect.
As soon as the color changed, I felt a sense of inner peace, and I could observe it with a relaxed mind. While the black wasn't oppressive, it didn't arouse any extra curiosity... Is this to help us focus on the content of the film while watching it?"
Alger analyzed the message conveyed by the words: Rest? Free action? What was this for? Did we learn some secrets during the movie just now, so they're giving us some time to rest, to sort out our thoughts and adjust our mindsets? But those things aren't fully understood yet. Free action means we can find the right people to discuss the results?
