"Ok?"

The old man with the white beard who closed his eyes and rested his mind slightly opened his eyelids, and the crow on the street lamp also turned his head and looked into the distance.

Zaratul didn't seem to wake up, squinting his eyes and basking in the sun on the side of the road. At the same time, he slowly took out a red pendulum from his arms, hung it in the air, and performed a simple divination.

The pendulum was silent for a while, and then slowly made a clockwise rotation as if it was under tremendous pressure.

Under George III's "law", Zaratul cannot use extraordinary abilities without authorization.Not only that, as time went by, all magic related to prophecy and divination was also suppressed, because the king did not want any troubles in his ascension ceremony.

Even as the One in Sequence One, he can only get vague revelations under the law.

"There seems to be something that attracts me over there..."

In the gap of the hood, the old and cloudy eyes stared at the red pendulum that had stopped moving for a long time.

After a while, Zaratul slowly put it away, picked up his crutches, turned around, and slowly moved towards the direction where Klein's carriage disappeared.

The crows in the sky fluttered their wings and flew up with hoarse screams. The black feathers fell on the shoulders of the passers-by below, but the people just patted the feathers off and knew nothing about the things above.

……

"The digestion of my 'Crafting Mage' potion mainly relied on intimidating the 'Original Witch', and it is absolutely impossible for the 'Original Witch' to tell others about this. Besides, I didn't leave enough people in Backlund. Horror tales."

"In the sea, there are some rumors about 'Gehrman Sparrow''s pirate hunt, but it is far from 'creepy'. Forsi's horror novel has not been written yet, and he should not be able to find me. The location is right."

"In other words, Zaratul was probably attracted purely by the aggregation ability of Origin Castle, and I was in Intis, promoted to Sequence 3 under the nose of the red angel, Pales Zoroas De said that he had a sense. In summary, Zaratul should only be able to judge that I have been here before, and cannot confirm that I am still here..."

"He may have made some prophecies, but his personality will not be higher than Origin Castle, so he may not be able to get a useful response."

"I'm not fully exposed yet!"

In the blink of an eye, Klein had already deduced all possible things in his mind.He calmed down quickly, controlled all the nervous reactions that he shouldn't have, and put on a relaxed expression that was the same as usual.

But he also knows that his current thoughts are just a kind of self-comfort. Even if he becomes an "ancient scholar", he can find a lot of helpers. He still has no effective way to deal with Zaratul - from Qonas Kilgor Judging from the fact that he was turned into a secret puppet by himself with almost no power to fight back, the complete Sequence One's "spiritual body thread" is even more terrifying, and Zaratul probably won't take longer to control him!

Moreover, the more he walked on the path of "Seer", the more Klein could appreciate how terrifying and difficult to kill Zaratul.

After stopping George III's ceremony, Klein decided to leave Backlund directly to give himself more time to grow.

The carriage drove steadily for a certain distance. Through the window on the other side, Klein could already see the signboards of the charities and charitable hospitals he funded.
"I used paper doubles and life canes to treat people in charity hospitals, and played scary angels."

"Since Zaratul has arrived here, it is impossible for him not to notice such obvious traces of the 'Crafting Mage' digesting the potion!"

"If I enter the Charity Hospital or the Foundation now, will I bump into a secret puppet of Zaratul?"

Cold sweat almost broke out, he knocked lightly on the carriage door, and asked in the usual tone:
"I suddenly remembered something. I might go to visit my neighbors. I have something to say to Mr. Alan Kress."

He wants to use the power of "Snake of Destiny" Will to avoid Zaratul!
Klein held his breath and concentrated, but did not activate his spirit vision.If the coachman said something that shouldn't be said, or didn't stop and sent himself to the charity hospital, he would jump out of the car immediately and throw out all the things related to the real creator in his hands!
Fortunately, what he feared did not happen.

The coachman did not question the master's order, he immediately responded, and manipulated the rein to go another road to the home of Dr. Alan Kress.

"It only takes a few minutes to get to Dr. Allen's house from here... I can't use any extraordinary abilities, and it's best not to do anything that may cause spiritual fluctuations to prevent being noticed by Zaratul... I'm just a sudden Faqi is just someone who wants to visit friends..."

There must be some kind of contract between Zaratul and King George III. Even he cannot unscrupulously turn civilians into marionettes!
Klein calmed down and meditated in the carriage. These few minutes were probably the most difficult time Klein has felt so far.

Fortunately, there were no twists and turns along the way.Dawn Dantès' carriage stopped at the door of Dr. Alan Kress's house.

The coachman opened the door for the owner, and the personal servant Enyuni got out of the car first, and the gardener who was cleaning the garden at Dr. Allen's house announced the identity of the visitor, followed by Dawn Dantès.Soon, Dr. Allen's wife came out accompanied by a maid, and greeted Dawn with a smile on her face:

"You are welcome, our friend."

"Long time no see, ma'am." Dawn also smiled and took off his hat to salute, then he looked around and asked, "Is Alan not here?"

Their relationship is so good that they can be called by their first names. Dawn also invited Dr. Allen to the May Song Manor before, but unfortunately the doctor happened to have several important operations to be done, so he had to decline regretfully.Combined with the fact that he hunted Qonas Kilgor in Maysong Manor and contacted Mr. Azik, Klein once wondered if this was the choice Will made after predicting something.

"Alan went to the hospital." Mrs. Velma smiled, and turned her body sideways, "Please come in, will the vacation in May Song Manor be faster?"

"The environment of the manor is very good. We enjoyed a good life there for a week and held a barbecue party."

Mrs. Verma covered her lips with her hand: "It seems that we lost a good outing."

"There will be opportunities in the future."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Klein made a movement, and then miraculously took out a bottle of fine red wine from Manor Maison Maison from the arms of his valet: "By the way, I brought Ellen a gift, which is from the manor. Red wine, 20 years. I originally planned to visit you as soon as I came back, but because I was delayed for a day, I forgot to make an appointment, so please don’t mind my abrupt visit.”

"Nothing."

Mrs. Wilma thanked her readily, took the red wine and handed it to her servant, then greeted Dawn and opened the door.

……

The moment Klein stepped into Chris' house, Zaratul, who was walking to identify the direction and walked slowly to the vicinity of Charity Hospital, also stopped.

The crutch in his hand stood upright, without pointing him in the right direction.

"Disappeared……"

Zaratul frowned and muttered to himself in disbelief.

"Did it enter the church, or the hidden place, or other Sequence One areas? Well, it should not be underestimated."

He stood still at the gate of Charity Hospital, ready to sit on the sidelines and wait for the "thing that attracted him" to appear again.

A staff member in a hospital noticed the old man standing at the door, and stepped forward to ask him if he needed help.But before he got close to Zaratul, his expression became dull, and then he turned around as if he had been hallucinated, and returned to the hospital.

The widow and lonely old man with white beard standing at the entrance of the Charity Hospital was a bit too eye-catching, Zaratul pondered for a moment, and decided to do as the Romans do.

He lowered his cloak and hat a little, then moved to the entrance of a small alley next to the hospital, set up a table, a crystal ball, two decks of tarot cards, and a few pendulums of his own, preparing to sit on the sidelines while waiting for a rabbit. Don't forget to play the "Seer" either.

……

Klein followed Mrs. Wilma's footsteps into the house, and the personal servant helped him take off his coat and hung it on the hanger at the entrance.

"How is Will?" Entering the room, while building a spiritual wall, Klein took out a "Yesterday Reappearance" spell that looked like a crystal flake from his pocket, "I brought him a small specialty. "

"It looks beautiful." Mrs. Verma replied politely, and then arranged for the maid to make tea and push Will's stroller over.

Soon, the blond-haired Will Kress appeared lying in his little stroller being pushed by the maid. He sucked his finger and stared unblinkingly at the bag Klein held in his hand. A "reappear yesterday" spell.

"He seems to like it."

"Kids like shiny things." Klein responded with a smile.

Then, he changed the subject and chatted with Mrs. Wilma about all kinds of interesting things that happened during the week of vacation in the manor, as well as the stories shared by the ladies and gentlemen.During this process, he and Will flirted with each other from time to time, using illusion under the suggestion of each other, causing all ordinary people in the living room to fall into hallucinations, and he reached out and grabbed Will's stroller to his side.

Klein waved the "Reappear Yesterday" charm on his hand, and asked in a softer voice:
"Will, do you want this?"

After teasing the other party, Klein felt that his mood improved significantly, and being beside a Sequence One gave him a great sense of security:

"Zaratul has already appeared in Backlund. I saw him, but he probably hasn't noticed me yet. I made an emergency turn to visit you because I want to use your influence on fate to make him ignore me temporarily."

Will glared at him without answering.

Without flinching, Klein took two pieces of good-quality white paper from the side and put them into the stroller.

Then, with a smile, he also put the "Yesterday Reappearance" spell in his hand into the stroller, and pressed it on the white paper: "All the gifts of fate have already marked the price secretly, haven't they?"

Will, who was lying in the stroller, stretched out his hand in a murmur, grasped the white paper with some difficulty, and began to origami with some reluctance:
"For the Extraordinary of the 'Destiny' path, they pay for the things on the price list first, and then wait for the gift."

He seemed to mention it on purpose: "I know you have already met Medici, and your fate is closely linked with them. Medici was destined to be the reward for Tudor's becoming a god, but Ulorius was unable to pay The same price was exchanged for him, so Medici died."

Klein was thoughtful, and since Will brought it up on his own initiative, he also asked straight to the point:

"I know that there is a life-and-death hatred between you and Ouroreus due to the struggle of paths, and after I was chosen by the true Creator to be a favored one, you still haven't cut off contact with me, you can see it in the new 'price list' What's up?"

Will pursed his lips:

"Before you were selected, I had paid enough chips, but now you haven't given me much back..."

Klein hesitated to answer.

"I can feel now that you also have a certain influence on 'fate'. Although you have become the favored person of the Creator, you have not betrayed me to Ouroreus, so I still trust you."

The implication is that you feel that if you continue to maintain a relationship with me, and fight against Ourorius in the future, even if you lose, you can save your life?

Klein nodded slightly, and said:

"Did fate tell you, what is the purpose of my coming to you today?"

Will smoothed the corners of the origami with difficulty, then pointed to the charm on his pillow, and raised three fleshy fingers.

"Three talismans?" Klein deliberately pretended not to understand, "How many shots can you make at that time?"

Will's little hands trembled slightly, and there was a faint sobbing sound:

"Are you trying to blackmail a one-year-old child? You are already at Sequence 3, so give me two more charms so I can help you!"

"Then the deal, I'll pull your historical projection out to help." Klein made the agreement without hesitation, and then added, "You also need to fold a few thousand paper cranes for me."

After speaking, the baby wrapped in silver silk and him fell silent at the same time.

……

Klein didn't wait for Dr. Allen to come back to have lunch. He had to go to St. Samuel's Church to apologize to Bishop Elektra, who he had put pigeons on, and then use the church and the Orthodox Church's clergy to continue to hide himself .

I can’t go to Origin Castle anymore. When Miss Messenger comes back, if Pales Zarathustra is willing to help, then I’ll send two more charms there... I don’t know what else I can do, these are the things I can do so far. Find the full strength now.

Klein waved goodbye to Mrs. Wilma and Will, got into the carriage, and followed Will's guidance to drive the carriage to the cathedral from the path.

On the road, the carriage suddenly slowed down. Klein felt nervous, and immediately asked in a low voice:
"what happened?"

"Sir, it's okay. There are people queuing up ahead for divination." The coachman's tone was relaxed, but Klein's mood suddenly fell to the bottom.His right hand even tensed instantly, ready to grab someone from history to protect himself.

At the divination stall, Zaratul played the magic stick and spoke riddles while paying attention to the movements of the passers-by.

His prophecy shows that the item that attracts him will have a high probability of appearing here, but whether you can encounter it or not depends on luck.So He chose to attract people around to do divination, and formed a long queue on the road, blocking all those who might pass by here.

Even the patrolmen on the road could not resist the temptation of the prophecy and forgot to maintain law and order.

"Your career is about to usher in an upswing..."

Zaratul lowered his head to interpret the cards for the guests. Suddenly, he raised his head as if feeling something, and locked his eyes on a carriage.

A middle-aged gentleman with white sideburns was sitting in the carriage. Under His gaze, the gentleman seemed to have noticed His sight through the wooden boards of the carriage.He took out a crystal lens from his coat pocket, wiped it on his trousers, and put it on his right eye with a smile.

Zaratul was silent for a moment.

Then he lowered his head nonchalantly.
