Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 497 Will Asceptin’s thanks?

Anyway, I have to say something...

Klein's mind froze for a moment. This time, he avoided the other party and escorted Darkwill to Olavi Island alone. The purpose was to prevent Angel from knowing the details.

The first reason is that he earns this money to save up for the purchase of magical items that can be used to "steal" the special characteristics of the Secret Puppet Master. It is just his own private matter and he does not want to trouble the other party; the second reason is... he does not want Angel to know that he and Angel This "pharmacist" has a connection.

All three of them have attended the "Eye of Wisdom" party, and Angel knows what medicines Darkwill often sells!

"Why did you come to Olavi Island too?"

He quickly used the ability of the "faceless man" to adjust his expression and asked calmly.

This is called taking the initiative...

"Just passing by."

Angel glanced at Darkwill, who was looking at him in amazement behind Klein. The latter obviously didn't recognize him without the "Ring of Madness".

"Is this your escort? How did you meet?"

She raised her eyebrows, not being induced by Klein's disturbing question.

But as soon as he turned around, he noticed a waiter in a tuxedo approaching him with two strong men with unkind expressions.

The more he talked, the more excited he became. He stopped preparing to leave the casino and turned around to return to the card table to play a few more games to make up for the shock he had suffered in the past few days.

……

"Very well, also remember your promise, clues to offensive magical items."

His owl Harry then flew down from the ceiling, landed back on his shoulder, and said in a voice that only he could hear:

"Are you crazy? I thought I was going to find another animal trainer to help me prepare the medicine!"

This kind of miser would never want to spend 1000 pounds to hire a bodyguard.

"Ah-"

"let's go?"

"Give me all the money you just won, and you can leave. Our employment ends early, right?"

Angel looked at him silently for a few seconds before nodding.

Looking at the back of Gehrman Sparrow, who protected him all the way, but then left in a hurry, even taking 130 pounds short of the balance, and the woman next to him who looked better than any woman he had ever seen before. Darkwill swallowed silently at first, and then realized why the other party secretly came to his store to buy medicine.

Based on what he knew about the fat pharmacist in Backlund, Angel knew that he was only willing to spend 30 pounds to dispose of the herbs he had worked so hard to grow by sewer monsters. Paying some money to buy potion materials seemed to be asking him. life.

Although Angel couldn't see his expression, he could tell that his tone was not friendly.

After throwing the note with the spell to summon his headless messenger lady to the fat pharmacist, Klein turned back to look at Angel, his expression returned to calmness, and he even smiled a little.

"You idiot, I am your master, not someone who makes potions for you," Darkwill retorted in a similarly low voice, "And isn't this a good thing? He left in a hurry and didn't even ask me to do it again. I can’t wait to win 130 pounds, and Mr. Reachord’s lucky blessing still has some time and quota, and the rest of the income belongs to me!”

Darkwill was interrupted by Klein as soon as he opened his mouth. The latter explained rapidly for a long time, then turned around and looked at the pharmacist.

Of course, he also came to realize that he had almost caused trouble just now and became the next target of this crazy adventurer.

"Yes, it is."

Obviously, Darkwill, who was face to face with the "Crazy Adventurer" at a close distance, knew this better. He quickly took out a wad of banknotes from his robe pocket and stuffed it into Gehrman's hand without counting.

"I'm red..."

"He saw the news in the newspaper and knew that I killed pirates on the street, and I had received a missing person commission from him before, so he came to me."

"That's him. Search carefully to see how he made the fortune. He won two hundred pounds in less than an hour."

As soon as the waiter finished speaking, the owl flapped its wings and flew from Darkwill's shoulder. This time, it did not stay in the room, but flew directly out of the casino.

———— "Ahem, so why did you come to Olavi Island?"

With a slight cough, Klein broke the silence in the living room and asked.

The two found a hotel near the pier that could see the sea, and stayed in an ordinary suite. Then they sat in the living room and returned to the dull atmosphere of the "Azure Wind" hotel in Bayam.

There is no balcony, no single sofa, and no room service... Angel was thinking about it, and was suddenly awakened by Klein's question, and answered hesitantly:

"I, I followed Elaine and the 'Redhead' out to sea to test the new ship. Unexpectedly, I encountered pirates and a mast was broken. I had to come here for repairs. I just happened to remember that you are here, At once……"

As she said this, she felt that this reason was too far-fetched and she couldn't make it up anymore.

But Klein just listened quietly with a smile on his face and did not ask any questions.

This seemed to be a bit too hypocritical for Angel who was making up excuses. She opened her mouth, sighed, and changed her words:

"Okay, I admit, I divined the scene of you escorting Darkwill, and he happened to be struck by lightning at that time. I thought this journey might be dangerous, so I took Elaine and drove me to Olavi Island. But There were a lot of accidents on the road, including a storm and pirates. The ship is still parked at the dock waiting for repairs..."

"Accident? Because of that 'lucky' revolver?"

After receiving a satisfactory answer, Klein's smile grew wider, but he quickly frowned and asked.

"Yes, it seems that its negative effects have begun to appear again in the past two days, just like what happened to Darkwill."

Angel replied, pulling out the revolver and placing it on the table in front of him. This revolver, which looked exquisite but did not look like a magical item at all, was lying quietly in the center of the table, looking harmless.

"Darkwill paid me 1000 pounds to escort him because of a similar item. It was a magical dice called the 'Dice of Probability'..."

This "monster", also known as the "Wheel of Fortune", has the unique ability to control the probability of all surrounding events. Its advantage or disadvantage is determined by the number of points obtained. 1-3 points are disadvantageous. The lower the number, the more likely and dangerous it is. , terrible unfortunate encounters, 4-6 points are the opposite.

Darkwill was hit by an almost impossible lightning strike in the cabin. It was just a result of rolling a "2". If it was a "1", he might have stumbled every step he took, and any surface he touched would be There are burrs, and even if you drink water, you will choke to death.

The most terrible thing is that this die has some kind of living characteristics. It always likes to make its holder switch back and forth between lucky and unlucky modes. Once fully awakened, it will gradually include the wider and wider space around it. This kind of "probability" will eventually affect the entire world.

"This is very similar to Tingen's sealed artifact..." Angel murmured. She did not say the code name "0-08" to avoid being noticed by the quill. "But what is 'uniqueness'? thing?"

"That is the only item required for each path except potions when Sequence 1 is promoted to Sequence 0, that is, true god. If uniqueness appears in the world, it means that no true god has been born in this path yet."

After showing off the identity of "The World", the communication between Klein and Angel about mysticism became much easier. There is no need to worry about whether there are things that "The World" knows but "Klein" doesn't know, such as Sequence 0 and True God, although they are extremely secretive. topic, but it’s no secret in Tarot sessions.

Although he said this, the matter of "uniqueness" was never discussed in the Tarot Club... Angel looked at Klein doubtfully, wondering if the other party had other information channels.

"I learned about this from an angel from the 'Wheel of Fortune' channel. It's a coincidence that he also knows you and even asked me to convey his gratitude to you."

Klein chuckled and continued to explain.

"Angel, thank me?"

In the six months since she came to this world, Angel has also met several Sequence 2 "angels". Ms. Arianna has provided her with a lot of help, not to mention Mr. Azik. If he hadn't saved the situation several times, I'm afraid she and Ke would have lost their lives. Ryan has almost used up the "resurrection" power he didn't know where he came from.

In addition to these two, there is also the "Queen Anne's Revenge" which has just signed a contract...

But she has never met the angel of "Wheel of Fortune"!

"Do you still remember the 'Aurora Society' divine envoy you encountered and killed in Hillston District when you were in Backlund?"

Klein asked, and after the other party nodded, he continued:

"At that time, you protected a young couple, Alan Kress and his wife, Velma Gladys, during the battle. Velma was pregnant at the time, and the fetus in her belly was a Sequence 1 of proactively 'restarting' life, Angel, Will Asceptin. I got to know Dr. Allen and this angel during a commission, and got a way to contact them. This is the reason why He asked me to convey my gratitude. .”

After Klein reminded him, Angel recalled the couple he met on the street when he was fighting Ms. D. At that time, Ms. D summoned a flame spear and threw it at him. Because there were civilians behind him, Angel did not choose to jump with flames to dodge, but summoned This blow hit the hard top of the ice wall.

But a Sequence 1 would thank himself specifically for such a small thing? He can’t even handle these little things, right? Judging from the extraordinary abilities of the "monster" path, he at least has the ability to turn misfortune into luck. Could it be that the so-called "restart" caused him to become a fetus and unable to display his extraordinary abilities?

"Although this angel expressed clear gratitude, I think that he should be able to cope with an attack from a mid-sequence. I am afraid that the attack was already within Will's expectation, otherwise the 'Snake of Destiny' that can control destiny 'Wouldn't put myself in danger."

Klein added that he did not relax his vigilance because the other party thanked Angel in the paper crane dream used for communication. Instead, he carefully analyzed it based on his own experiences and mystical knowledge, and told Angel the results.

The main reason is that according to his thinking, Will Asceptin was absolutely able to predict that his parents would be attacked by Ms. D in Hillston District, and he did not stop the Allens from going to the scene. The only reason is: He wants to take this opportunity to have some kind of connection with Angel!

In occult terms, even this kind of encounter without actual contact means the entanglement of fate, and it means that this "Snake of Destiny" has an agenda!
