I have a Synthesizer

#201 - Agatha, the Dragon's Son

Just as Agatha approached Celia and knelt beside her, a somewhat inappropriate applause rang out in the hall.

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

"Wonderful performance! I haven't been to the movies in ages. It's even better than the Zaun dramas I used to watch! What a great little movie, I admire it, I admire it."

Klein said, clapping.

Madam Celia was stunned for a moment, also not quite understanding what Klein was doing, but what she was about to say to Agatha was interrupted by Klein's applause.

Gaye frowned, looking at Klein with a somewhat gloomy expression.

"What are you talking about?"

Klein ignored him and turned to look at Madam Celia behind him.

"Madam Celia, the continuous events at home seem to have made you lose your cool. You seem to have overlooked a very important point.

If you really want revenge, why put on this melodramatic show? Seth the butler is one of them. If they wanted to kill you, they would have done it already.

Their real purpose, perhaps revenge is part of it, but the really important thing is the secret you speak of! Madam Celia.

The secret you hold is your real talisman. As long as you don't reveal it, you'll be safe, but if you do, you're sure to die! Am I right? Agatha?"

As Klein spoke, Eric and Becky had quietly moved closer.

They were also aware that Klein wouldn't do something like this for no reason. He must have discovered something, so they were prepared to respond to any possible battle.

Agatha, who had been crouching beside Celia with her head lowered, had her face obscured by her hair, making it impossible to see her expression.

After listening to Klein's words, the corners of her mouth began to curve slightly, and she slowly stood up.

She looked at Klein, once again revealing her signature delicate expression, but the tone in her voice was completely different.

"Heh heh, I was so close to succeeding. Your actions have ruined everything! Klein."

Sitting on the sofa, Celia suddenly trembled, looking at Agatha in disbelief.

"Agatha, you?"

Agatha ignored Celia, more interested in Klein in front of her than Celia.

"When did you figure it out? Is my acting that bad?"

Klein shook his head.

"No, your acting isn't just good, at least in my opinion, you could easily be a professional actress.

After killing Jokol, you planted a ghoul rune, turning Jokol into your ghoul slave, is that right?"

Agatha smiled and nodded, then picked up a glass of red wine next to the sofa, poured herself a glass, sat on the armrest of the sofa, took a sip, and said.

"Hearing you say that, I feel like my flaws are huge. You're basically right, keep going."

At this time, Gaye interrupted Agatha.

"Agatha, what about our mission?"

Agatha seemed displeased by Gaye's interruption.

"I said, let him keep talking, so you better not interrupt us again. Please be quiet, Gaye."

Gaye looked at Agatha with some trepidation.

"Yes."

Agatha looked at Klein again with a smile.

"Alright, Klein, you can continue."

"The next thing was the attack on you by the dried corpse, Nicol! In this attack, you seemed to be seriously injured and on the verge of death.

But later I thought, if the ghoul really wanted to kill you, it would have directly used Dragon Shout, and I wouldn't have been able to save you in time. You must have been waiting for me to notice and rush in to save you before you acted, right?

A frail woman who is seriously injured and poisoned not only makes people feel sorry for her, but can also perfectly get rid of her own suspicion, causing Madam Celia to lose her guard against you.

You, lying in bed because of weakness, could more subtly control those ghouls. That's how you did it, right?"

Agatha nodded.

"You're really amazing, Klein. What you said makes a lot of sense. I feel like I've been very careful, but I didn't expect there to be so many flaws. Is there anything else?"

"There are two more, I think!"

Agatha was slightly surprised.

"Two more? That many? I guess one of them is that Klein deliberately let me see your bugs?

I remember I glanced at the room subconsciously when I killed the Thorne couple. Now that I think about it, that's also a flaw, right? What's the other one?"

"What you said counts as one, and the other one is that you looked too sad when you were lying on the Thorne couple's bodies.

When you touched their bodies at that time, was it to plant ghoul runes on them?"

Agatha blinked.

"Yes, then Klein, why didn't you expose me at that time?"

Klein also spread his hands, saying very naturally:

"I didn't react at that time, most of these were afterthoughts."

Agatha sighed.

"I see, but Klein, you have been emphasizing that you only need to complete the task of protecting the three of us."

The life and death of others is none of your concern. Since it's irrelevant, Klein, why did you save her? She truly deserves to die.”

Klein looked at Celia, who was trembling. He didn't understand why she, who had been so indifferent to death before, was now so afraid.

“Is your background similar to Miss Gaye's?”

Agatha shook her head.

“No, mine is much more tragic! After my father was defeated by three great generals working together, Zangir found the remnants of our clan based on some information.

More than 300 people in the entire clan were killed by Zangir and Williams together, leaving only me as an infant.”

“Dragon Descendants from the Top of the World?”

“Yes! Dragon Descendants, Children of the Dragon, what a beautiful name, a race standing at the pinnacle of the world, but now exterminated.

By the way, Klein, you still haven't answered my question. Why did you save Celia?”

Klein slowly pulled out Hwi Moon, and immense magical power emanated from his body.

“It's not to save her, but I simply wanted to interrupt the play you guys are putting on!

No one likes being treated as a pawn, and neither do I. Interrupting is simply because I don't like being led by the nose!

Personally ruining the play that you've painstakingly created makes me feel very comfortable.”

Hearing Klein's explanation, Agatha laughed loudly.

“Hahaha, is that so? Being able to do things according to your own nature is truly enviable! Klein, it seems my judgment from over a year ago was correct.”

Just as Agatha laughed, the three attacked suddenly. Agatha's claws, Seth's hand blade, and Gaye's longsword all struck at Klein simultaneously.

Klein lowered his center of gravity, held his sword backhand, and blocked behind him. The six bone hands on his back braced against Hwi Moon, blocking the combined attack of the three.

Seeing the battle erupt, Becky and Eric also rushed forward, as did Jasper and the security guards.

A large number of guards and Jasper surrounded Gaye, while Eric and Becky teamed up to deal with the old butler, Seth.

Standing in front of Klein, only Agatha remained.

“I heard you say before that you didn't have much ability, and I almost believed it, but after fighting you once, I realized, Klein, you're really good at deceiving girls!”

“The last battle ended too quickly, not very satisfying. This time, let's have a good fight.”

“Alright! Let's do it then.”

As soon as Agatha finished speaking, three ghouls attacked Klein from three directions. It was Oly and the Thorne couple, who had died, instantly creating a four-on-one situation.

Klein's bone blades stabbed in three directions respectively, and the three ghouls' iron swords also pierced over.

The bone blades behind Klein seemed to have eyes, sweeping them away. He raised Hwi Moon in his hand, pointing directly at Agatha, the sword light lengthening in an instant.

“Ding!”

The light blue sword tip instantly pierced Agatha's wizard shield, stopping at the position of Agatha's palm, leaving a red dot on her palm.

Agatha's body was also knocked back by Klein's thrust. Looking at the red dot on her palm, Agatha was also slightly startled.

“To be able to suddenly attack from this distance, truly dangerous!”

Just then, the three ghouls surrounded her.

Agatha grabbed Celia next to her, took a deep breath, and turned to gently spit a blue line at Klein.

The blue line was not fast, and Klein easily dodged it with a slight shift of his body. Just as he was about to continue chasing, the blue line suddenly shattered, turning into a pervasive blue mist.

This blue mist adhered to Klein's body, gradually freezing him.

“Burn!”

These blue mists were chilling, even more persistent than ordinary ice mist. Scorching flames rose on Klein's body, burning for a long time before gradually melting the blue mist.

Watching Agatha flee with Celia, Klein chased after her.

From the beginning, she had no intention of truly fighting Klein. Her purpose was only to escape with Celia.

Klein was blocked by the three ghouls before he could chase for long. He knew that he wouldn't be able to pursue them unless he dealt with these ghouls.

Not only solve them, but do it quickly.

At this time, the ghoul Oly had already begun to take deep breaths. Klein knew that if he didn't act, he would face their continuous Dragon Shout, which would be troublesome even for him.

The Hwi Moon in his hand tilted slightly, suddenly extending, pinning the leftmost Oly to the wall. The four skeletal warriors had already pounced, frantically stabbing Oly with their rusty iron swords.

Taking this opportunity, Klein released the sword in his hand, and a larger Flame Burst fireball than last time appeared in his palm. The opposing Thorne couple also put down their weapons and took deep breaths!

“Fus - Ro - Dah!”

“Boom!”

The Dragon Shout and Flame Burst collided again, and the violent explosion directly destroyed a corner of the villa.

Before the two ghouls could react, Klein had already passed through the flames alone, his bone blades erupting, piercing their chests.

Klein didn't expect to kill creatures like ghouls with one blow, but at least he had to control them.

Rushing to the Thorne couple's side, Klein pressed his hands on their heads, using Chaotic Arcana to shatter their skulls!

He returned again, took the hilt of Hwi Moon, and a wisp of flame instantly conducted through the sword body to the dried corpse Oly.

The high temperature quickly burned Oly into charcoal. Klein shook his sword, shattering her corpse, quickly ending the battle, killing all three ghouls.

Retracting Hwi Moon, Klein looked at the direction Agatha had fled and chased after her.
