At five o'clock in the afternoon, in the townhouse at Daffodilstraße 2 in Tingen.

Crane, who had already sworn to the "Sword of the Goddess" and was successfully promoted to "Joker", looked at the ceremony arranged on the table and shouted in a giant voice:

"Me!"

After a slight pause, he changed the language of Hermes:

"I call in my name:"

"A fool who does not belong to this era, a mysterious lord above the gray mist, and a king of yellow and black who rules good fortune."

Then, he walked four steps backwards to the gray mist, and soon heard the summoning spell he had just recited, and saw the surging spirituality and the ripples of light blend together to stretch out an illusory door.

He allowed the suction of the "gate" to suck himself into it, and then descended into the real world in the form of a special spirit.

"I can really ...... this kind of summoning ritual on "Blood Feast", it's like it's tailor-made for me......"

Crane sighed, and then tried to control his spirit to fly in mid-air, and then he controlled his emotions, stopped, and floated in mid-air.

Then he tried to grab the spell and the normal bill he had made, then ended the summoning and returned to the gray mist.

"It worked! This means that I don't need the rituals of 'sacrifice' and 'giving' to be able to put or take items in and out of the gray mist......

"Tarot members should not need such valuable auxiliary materials to open the 'Summoning Door' when they trade in the future...... However, there is no need to inform them of such a thing, and the expensive materials will help them to maintain their awe of Mr. 'Fool'. ”

Looking at the money and the charm in his hand, Crane muttered to himself thoughtfully.

Then, after trying other uses of the special spirit, Klein, who was a little mentally exhausted, was about to "return" to reality, when he suddenly saw the crimson star, which symbolized the "sun", constantly expanding and contracting.

……

At his garden villa at 28 Kingst Street in Jowood, Abner is sitting at his desk, reading information on how to gain access to the royal library.

Since the road of disguise and entrustment does not work, it is good to simply change your thinking and obtain the qualification yourself.

"The rest of the annual fees and donations are easy to say, but it is more troublesome to need the guarantee of a real nobleman or noble heir......

"If something really happens, the nobles who guarantee it will be jointly and severally liable, and unless they know the bottom line, they are unlikely to take such a big risk easily...... Especially if I'm the one who came to the door.

"Maybe the declining nobles will vouch for money, but I'm afraid the price will not be low, and you have to be prepared to be knocked out a lot of money...... And Mr. 'Fool' won't reimburse me. ”

Abner had just thought of this, when suddenly, he saw a boundless gray mist, and saw a vague tall figure in a prayer posture in an empty room.

Immediately after, the words reached his ears:

“…… Please tell Mr. 'Tower' that I have found someone who is willing to sell the 'Thousand Magic Phantom Crystal', and he wants to exchange it for a Sequence 6 level of powerful armor or something similar that can protect himself, well, preferably for more than two years......"

This is the "sun", right? His efficiency is quite high, and he has contacted the seller in just over a day? Extraordinary items at the level of 6 are not easy to buy, not to mention that there are so many conditions attached......

Thinking this in his heart, Abner also buried his head "respectfully" and recited the honorific name of Mr. "Fool":

“…… Please tell Mr. 'Sun' to stabilize the seller for a few days, and I'll find the right extraordinary item as soon as possible." ”

After explaining the matter of asking the "Sun" for help, Abner took the initiative to mention the results of his investigation that day, and asked Mr. "Fool" if it was necessary to find out which count had framed and continuously suppressed Baron Ramder.

Soon, he got an affirmative answer.

By the time he had done this, Abner had completely thrown away the idea of buying off the declining nobles to vouch for him, and the gold pounds in his hand were not too much, so they could not be wasted on meaningless things.

As for the Sequence 6 level self-defense items that the seller in Silver City needed, Abner was going to go to the various secret gatherings in Beckland to find them first, and if he couldn't buy them before the Tarot meeting next week, he would give his "Sword of Dawn" to the "sacrifice".

The "Sword of Dawn" seems to be an extraordinary weapon, but it can also condense the "Dawn Armor" of the Sequence 6 to protect the user - although it is likely to completely turn the user into armor, it can be regarded as a weapon that can be used both offensively and defensively.

However, even if the negative effects of the "Sword of Dawn" are very serious, the value is much higher than that of the "Crystallization of the Phantom of a Thousand Arts".

……

Above the gray mist, Klein, who had listened to the report of the "tower", habitually knocked on the long bronze table, and after a while he made up his mind, and then simulated the feeling of "falling", "returned" to the bedroom, and went downstairs after cleaning up a little.

Melissa, who was busy in the kitchen, poked her head out and saw Klein, and said with bright eyes:

"I bought good food, chicken, potatoes, onions, meat fish, turnips and peas, and I also bought a small jar of honey."

Sister, have you also adapted to the occasional little "luxury"? Klein chuckled and said:

"I've got you to prepare dinner today, don't think about my share, I have something to go out for, maybe I'll have to come back in the early morning, well, do Azik faculty a favor, faculty member of the history department at Hoy University."

Melissa's lips opened and closed twice, and then she pursed again:

"Okay."

After saying goodbye to his sister, Crane stopped a carriage at the door and rushed to Mr. Azki's house.

More than two hours later, Klein led Mr. Azik on the road to the abandoned castle.

……

At twelve o'clock in the evening, Abner, who was about to sleep, suddenly heard the sound of the glass being knocked, and when he looked back, he found a petite figure lying outside the window on the third floor, and it was Hugh with a messy shoulder-length yellow hair.

Abner hurriedly opened the window and let her in, and asked in surprise, "Why are you here at this time?" Also, why not knock on the door? ”

"It's so strange to visit at this time...... It's better to go straight to you through the window to avoid a lot of trouble. Hugh pursed his lips, a serious and authentic way.

You're in my room in the middle of the night, isn't it more of a problem if someone finds out?

Abner complained inwardly, and on the surface he asked curiously, "What's the matter with you coming so late?" ”

"I'd like to do another 'exorcism' ritual......" Hugh said bluntly, only with a slightly unnatural expression.

"'Exorcism' rituals? Why, did you dream of the 'fool' again? At the same time as Abner asked, he turned on his spiritual vision, and found that Hugh's aura color was indeed dyed with a layer of dark green, although the aura was not strong, at most it could only make ordinary people seriously ill.

Signs of being haunted by ghosts...... Abner calmly made a judgment and asked directly:

"Where have you been?"

Hugh sighed and replied, "After I became the 'Interrogator', I was assigned a new mission by the 'Golden Mask' boss...... It's going to the dungeon of MI9 to interrogate some prisoners......"

MI9's dungeon...... It's not a good place......

"Go to a place like that, and they didn't have any rituals or items for you to protect?" Abner asked curiously.

Hugh shook his head and said, "Because I'm not a full-fledged person......"

Abner knew this, so he didn't ask any more questions, but set up the ritual and began to "exorcise evil spirits" for Hugh.

At the same time, I thought to myself: "Mr. Fool" is estimated to be able to watch the "live broadcast" again...... although the "Book of Death" is not easy to directly "sacrifice" to him, but it is no problem to relay some related rituals and magic through me...... It also happened to teach her some means to leave, so that she would not be troubled by the dead spirit in the future......

Well, after a while, let's go to the kitchen and get some snacks.

……

After a busy night, Crane, who finally gained the sincere friendship of Mr. Azik and became an "ally" with him, returned to No. 2 Daffodil Street tired, sleepy and hungry.

Not long after he entered the house, he felt a warmth on the back of his hand.
