Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 783 In the Bedroom
When Klein left Backlund two weeks ago, although it was ostensibly for "business," he actually felt like he was fleeing in a panic. After all, the clone of Amon, the "Time Angel," the "Blasphemer," and "That Person's Brother," had already arrived in Backlund, and his target was most likely him, who possessed some special qualities.

But now, Klein, who has returned to this city, has become a Sequence 4 "Trickster" and has the initial power to fight against the Angel King.

Of course, this does not mean that he can confront a Sequence 1 head-on, but according to "Orange Light" Hilarion, after possessing divinity, Klein will be able to conceal his "specialness" and avoid being discovered by the Angel King who covets his power.

After Klein was promoted, he truly discovered that the "Trickster" possessed a certain power that represented "confusion" and "deception", or in summary, "secrecy". It could instinctively conceal the peculiarities in its body. This not only made it difficult for High-Sequence Beyonders of the same or adjacent paths to recognize the peculiarities in itself, but also had a good effect in concealing one's strength.

This also points out the role-playing direction and fighting style of the "Weird Mage", that is, the main body hides behind the scenes, and uses the special characteristics of the secret puppet to fight... He chuckled secretly, looking at the two secret puppets beside him who could share all the skills of the "Weird Mage", feeling a little emotional.

When I left Backlund, I was still a "widowed master", but now I have two secret dolls, and the largest number of secret dolls is 50!
Now I really have become a whole circus by myself...

Enzo, the "winner", disguised himself as a personal valet and changed his name to Enuni, called a hired carriage. With the help of his personal bodyguard Ludwell, he got in the carriage and soon returned to his home at 160 Boklund Street in the North District.

Butler Walter and housekeeper Tanya, who had received the news in advance, led all the male servants, female servants, gardeners, coachmen and other servants to line up on both sides of the garden path to welcome their employer.

Looking at the servants standing neatly and respectfully under the gaslight, Klein nodded with satisfaction, feeling that his money was not wasted.

Therefore, even if traditional nobles have fallen on hard times and cannot afford to hire a few servants, they can only hire temporary maids and butlers, and temporarily assign additional staff during large banquets. They also have to retain an experienced butler, who is an indispensable role in the family... Klein smiled as he entered the villa accompanied by the male and female butlers. He exchanged a few words and then pointed to the secret puppets behind him and said:

"Enuni is the personal valet I hired in the Southern Continent. He will handle some of my business there. Raphael will be the guard of this villa and my personal bodyguard when I travel. Haha, after witnessing the chaos of the Southern Continent once again, I think it's time to add such an experienced hunter to my family."

He introduced Enuni, who spoke with a Tutan accent, and Ludwell, who was renamed "Raphael" and had hawk-like eyes, to Walter. When he mentioned "personal servant", Klein's original servant Richardson turned a little pale, but secretly lowered his head to hide his lost look.

Why do I feel guilty about "looking for a new lover"? But Richardson has done a good job before, and I promised him that there will be a "reward" if he stays... Klein smiled secretly and nodded to his former valet.

"From today on, you will follow Mr. Walter and be his assistant. You will be responsible for collecting information on all the manors in the suburbs to see if there are any that are cost-effective and worth buying. Well, don't buy them for more than 20,000 pounds."

After doing this arms business, my savings have exceeded 35000 pounds. It's time to make some fixed asset investments. Moreover, when the autumn hunting season comes, it will be very rude to not be able to invite friends to the suburbs to hunt, barbecue, and spend a happy weekend... Klein added in his mind, and suddenly remembered the winery worth pounds that Angel accidentally obtained. He smacked his lips and felt a little envious.

The butler mistook this action as his master being a little hungry after the long journey, so he quickly arranged for a refreshing wash and a sumptuous dinner, and informed him of the to-do list that had been accumulated over the past two weeks.

"I have to go to Dr. Allen's house tomorrow afternoon. After all, I haven't publicly congratulated Will on his birth. There will be a dance party hosted by Congressman Macht in the evening... The number of banquets is gradually increasing, which means that I have gradually integrated into the upper class. But in fact, I don't know how long I can use this identity. Maybe when I investigate the truth behind the smog, I will encounter some dangers and have to flee here, so I can only give up this identity that has tied up many of my fixed assets..."

After a Loen-style dinner that was completely different from the Southern Continent’s style and blended cuisines from multiple countries in the Northern Continent, Klein took a comfortable bath to wash away the fatigue of the long journey. While Enuni helped him put on his pajamas, he thought divergently about everything that would happen next.

"...After solving the problem of Ince Zangwill and becoming a demigod, my main target is now the real culprit of the smog incident. To do this, I need to continue to approach the deputy director of MI9, Major General Qonas Kilger. As for Viscount Stratford, who is related to the death of Prince Edessak, Angel and Triss are investigating... In addition, I have to look for clues about the last time traveler. In fact, I suspect that the legendary ancient sun god is my 'roommate'. After all, He named his children Adam and Amon, and used the cross as a symbol of worship. There is a kind of beauty that Internet kids play with memes... Is this the reason why Amon is trying to capture me and find out the special nature of the gray fog on me? Like Bernadette, He is playing 'Where Are We Going, Dad?'"

A new joke popped up in his mind for no reason, and Klein, who was a little breathless due to all the doubts, laughed.

"Why, are you thinking about me?"

Suddenly, a soft, charming voice came from behind him.

Klein, who had sensed it but had no idea where the other party would come from, turned around and smiled even more. He looked at Angel, who emerged from the decorative mirror in the room. She was wearing a black dress that revealed her smooth ankles and bare feet. His eyebrows couldn't help but raise.

This is the outfit I wore when I held the "Witch" card. She noticed that I looked at her a few more times that day... Klein realized that he could hardly suppress the corners of his mouth. He quickly instructed Enuni to leave the bedroom and locked the door. He used this opportunity to adjust his mood, and then said:
"I thought you wouldn't make a formal visit until tomorrow."

"Isn't it because I'm afraid you'll get impatient waiting?" Angel chuckled and laid down on the single sofa that belonged to her in the bedroom without caring about her image. The whiteness under her skirt made Klein's heart beat faster. "I came back from my own winery, changed my clothes, and rushed here directly. It seems that the time is just right."

She emphasized that it was her own winery. It was obvious that she had not just arrived. Instead, she hid in the mirror and listened to the conversation between Klein and the butler, showing off the Iris Manor that she had acquired without any effort. But Klein's thoughts lingered on the point of "changing clothes". He confirmed that the other party had changed into this black dress that was not suitable for going out specifically for him, and his mind became a little active.

He approached Angel, who was half lying on the sofa in an ambiguous posture, and was about to do something, but was gently pushed away by the other party:

"Change back to your original appearance first."

Klein was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that he was still Dwayne Dantes, and couldn't help but laugh:

"You were the one who said you were going to marry Christine Theresa as Dawn. Why aren't you used to this image yet?"

Although he said that, Klein still turned his head slightly. After a moment, he turned back. His face had changed to black hair and brown eyes, and he looked much younger.

"It takes some getting used to..."

Seeing Klein so obedient, Angel narrowed her eyes and raised her hands, hugging Klein, whose body had become thinner and whose nightgown was hanging loosely on his body. The latter took the opportunity to hug her, but smelled a faint smell of alcohol.

"Did you drink before you came here?"

he asked doubtfully.

"I visited the Iris Winery with Audrey this afternoon and asked her to see if there was anything that needed improvement. But when I heard that the renovation would cost 5000 pounds, I dragged her to the tasting room and forced her to drink a bottle of 1340 red wine, which foiled her plan to bankrupt me." Angel muttered, still upset about the other party's expensive renovation suggestions. "But don't worry, I'm not drunk."

Is this what I'm worried about... It's just Miss Justice, so there's no problem. I thought it was some noble who took advantage of the situation... Klein muttered in his heart, and suddenly thought of the night when the two of them just left Backlund and headed to the sea, and Angel drank a whole bottle of Sonia Blood Wine and pretended to be drunk.

In order to ease the embarrassment, he secretly put Angel back on the single sofa, cleared his throat and said:

"On my way back to the North Continent, I encountered the Black Emperor of Nast, the 'King of the Five Seas'. In order to prevent him from attacking the passenger ship I was on, I had to meet him. The pirate king invited you and your ghost ship to join his team to explore the 'Ghost Empire'. He also said that everything you need is hidden there, including what he needs, of course. He also said that the ghost ship is related to Emperor Roselle."

Sitting back on the sofa, Angel also got rid of the charming atmosphere and was a little surprised when he heard it.

She had been invited by the "King of the Five Seas" at the Pirate Conference. Before they could continue discussing this topic, the attack by the "Divine Evil" Sua ended the meeting. Unexpectedly, Nast borrowed Klein's message to invite her again, and even mentioned Emperor Roselle...

Is this to convince Anne, and the "mysterious queen" Bernadette who is related to her? These two people will indeed be attracted by the legend of the great emperor, but the premise is that the "ghost empire" really exists...

Angel himself was also quite interested in this maritime legend, but the prerequisite was that he had to have the power to "have a piece of the pie", that is, at least reach Sequence 3. Otherwise, he would be caught between other forces. Even if he found the "Ghost Empire" and the hidden treasure, it would only be a wedding dress for others.

“We can talk about this after I advance to Sequence 3… And Anne hasn’t returned from Intis yet. I need to hear her opinion. Otherwise, the Golden Queen is just a pirate without a ship.”

Angel smiled to himself and replied.

Klein raised his eyebrows and asked in confusion:

"Promote to the 'Immortal' Witch? Do you have a way to solve the problem of the promotion ceremony?"

Angel had told him the formula of the "immortal" potion and the promotion ceremony. As the "Fool", Klein also had the freedom to check the "Witch" card at will, so he was full of doubts about Angel's confidence:
Could she bypass the promotion ceremony that would take decades to complete?
