It really is the spirit world... Klein was delighted and muttered to himself silently.

There was no need for any further confirmation, his spirituality and inspiration had already told him that this was the real spiritual world!

And this means that he is back in the real world, back to where there are all kinds of delicious food.

Almost bursting into tears... Klein laughed at himself in his heart and thought about where to go next:

"Judging from the positions of the stars, moon, and sun, it is still early morning. If there is no time difference between the real world and the Misty Town, then it is at most 7:30, or even earlier. At this time, the servants must have discovered that their companions are missing, but they may not inform the priests and bishops in time.

“Even if they have received relevant training and will report to their superiors according to the procedures, they still have to rule out options such as someone slacking off or someone having diarrhea. It will take more than ten minutes to come to a definite conclusion and take effective action.

“After the report was submitted, the priests and bishops would not be able to see the seriousness of the problem at first. They would only think that a servant had escaped and would not quickly connect the matter to the internal guards. It would take at least 20 to 30 minutes for them to discover the true situation through divination and search.

"That is to say, they have most likely not yet started searching the surroundings for intruders, and the identity of the wealthy man Dwayne Dantès has not yet been exposed.

"Well, if the formula for the 'Trickster' potion that Zaratul gave me is correct, then there are still many things worth using Dwayne Dantès' identity for. If you can keep it, try not to give it up.

"Besides, of the items I'm wearing now, only the gloves and the underwear are real. Going somewhere else like this would be like being a pervert..."

Klein already had an inclination. He took out the iron cigarette box that seemed to be in his pocket but was actually pinned to the elastic band. He opened it and took out the gold coin inside.

"It's dangerous to return to 160 Böklund Street." Klein muttered to himself seven times, and with a clang, he ejected the gold coin. He watched it float slowly in the spirit world, sometimes up, sometimes down, sometimes left, sometimes right, and finally landed in his palm.

This time, the side with the number is facing up, which means no!

Klein nodded imperceptibly and immediately shuttled towards Backlund.

After three turns, he appeared in the house at 160 Böklund Street. The curtains were closed and the light was dim, which looked very suitable for sleeping.

On the bed, Dwayne Dantès was lying on his back, his two hands stretched out from the gap near his neck, grabbing the edge of the quilt.

It seems that they haven’t figured it out yet... This shape is so awkward... Klein secretly breathed a sigh of relief and saw the figure of "Dwayne Dantès" quickly dissipate and degenerate into a palm-sized mirror.

The surface of the mirror was rippled with water and silver light rose up, condensing into rune words one after another:

"Great and supreme master, what happened to you? Your humble and loyal servant Arrodes couldn't even sense you before!"

“Nothing.” Klein replied perfunctorily.

This allowed him to initially confirm one thing, that is, the "Magic Mirror" Arrodes was unable to see what was happening in the Misty Town. You know, this guy could even show the environment where the out-of-control Zaratul was.

Is it really related to the authority of the gods? Klein thought about it and asked:

"No one came to see me?"

"No, no one is here to disturb you." On the surface of the mirror, silver was wriggling and new words were evolving.

Klein was truly relieved and said to the Magic Mirror Arrodes:

"You can go back now. I will summon you again if there is anything else."

"Okay, Master. Goodbye, Master~" Arrodes, like before, drew a simple drawing of a waving hand on the surface of the mirror to match the text.

When the water light dissipated and the mirror returned to normal, Klein walked to the bed, took out the nightgown hidden in the quilt, and put it on.

Then, he dug out candles and other items, went into the bathroom, and set up a sacrificial ceremony, preparing to put the "Creeping Hunger", "Azik Copper Whistle", iron cigarette box and various mystical materials above the gray fog to avoid the subsequent inspection.

After doing all this, Klein delayed for a moment and sat in the position of The Fool. He then displayed the potion formula of The Trickster in front of him:

“Sequence 4: Trickster.

“Main materials: the main eye of the evil trickster, the real soul of the spirit world plunderer.

“Supplementary materials: 200 ml of the blood of the evil spirit, 30 grams of the dust of the spirit world plunderer, 10 grams of the bark of the red birch, a piece of golden grape vine, and a finger-sized homemade rubber mask.

"Ascension Ceremony: Relying mainly on one's own strength and planning, in front of many spectators, directing a grand drama to murder a demigod or an equivalent supernatural being, and then taking a magic potion at the end of the drama."

Klein didn't have time to think about what this ritual represented. He wrote the corresponding sentence below the potion formula.

Then, he summoned a pendulum from the pile of debris, held it in his left hand, and began to divine.

Not long after, Klein opened his eyes and saw the topaz pendant rotating clockwise.

This means that the recipe for the "Trickster" potion in his hand is correct!

Huh... Klein let out a breath and checked what changes had taken place to Creeping Hunger and what negative effects it had.

After a "dream divination" and a few direct attempts, he figured out the specific situation in less than two minutes:

"'Creeping Hunger' can now graze seven souls. Each time it grazes, it can gain two to three extraordinary abilities, one of which can be determined by the wearer.

"There are now eight souls in 'Creeping Hunger'. The rest were completely dissipated in the mutation brought about by the 'Secret Servant'. Since there are too many souls, it has caused 'squeezing' and some of its abilities cannot be used. One must be released before it can return to normal.

"Among the eight souls at present, one is the 'Baron of Corruption', also known as 'Trickster' Mithor. He has integrated the Beyonder characteristics of the same path that Mr. A has been herding. In addition to 'Distortion' and 'Bribe-Weaken', he has an additional range-type Beyonder ability called 'Corrosion', which can make the hearts of people within ten meters gradually darker, greedier, and more likely to make irrational choices.

"The second is 'Apostle of Desire' Gilchies. He merged with Mr. A's 'Demon' and replaced 'Fireball' with 'Predict Danger', a Beyonder Ability that needs to be activated in advance and always kept in the current soul to be effective. 'Filthy Words - Slow' and 'Sword of Magma' have also been enhanced to a certain extent.

"The third is the 'Traveler', Mr. X, Louis Wayne. He merged with Mr. A's 'Recorder' and gained the Beyonder ability of 'Record' while retaining the 'Travel' and 'Open Door' abilities. However, this ability has undergone some changes and cannot be used to record ordinary Beyonder abilities. It can only be used for targets at the demigod level. Its recording success rate has increased. Although it is still troublesome, as long as one's luck is not too bad, it can be completed in about eight attempts. In addition, it can record no more than two Beyonder abilities at the demigod level, and no higher than Sequence 3.

"The fourth is the 'Zombie' Mai Weiti. This has not changed. It is still the original 'Zombie Power', 'Ice Control' and 'Zombie Control';

"The fifth is the unknown 'Witch of Pain'. She can bring a strong charm to the user and adjust their appearance to a certain extent. In addition, she can provide a 'disease' that can cover nearly 50 meters. Creatures within this range will be gradually infected, and the degree of infection will become increasingly serious. At the beginning, it may just be a skin allergy, a cold, or a fever. After 20 to 30 seconds, it may turn into a severe pneumonia or other disease. After two or three minutes, a heart attack or cerebral infarction may occur at any time.

"The sixth is an unknown 'Wind-loving One', who has three extraordinary abilities: 'short-distance flight', 'deep diving', and 'water control';

"Seventh is an unknown 'requiem master' who has two extraordinary abilities: 'force people to sleep' and 'make spirits sleep'.

"Eight is an unknown 'doctor' who has three extraordinary abilities: 'discerning the weather', 'treating serious illnesses', and 'stitching souls'.

"At the same time, 'Creeping Hunger' itself also has 'Hide in the Shadows' and 'Flesh Bomb', and it has the chance and strength to barely herd a Sequence 4 Saint."

It has become much stronger all of a sudden... Klein was secretly pleased, but he frowned at the negative impact:

Now, the "Creeping Hunger" must eat a living person every day, otherwise it will devour the wearer. In addition, it will occasionally praise the "True Creator" in the wearer's mind, causing confusion and headaches. In addition to these two problems, it is also afraid of mushrooms. If mushrooms appear within 5 meters of it, it will not be able to use any of its abilities.

Randomly praising the "True Creator" is very troublesome, and so is eating a living person every day... Let's throw it above the gray fog first, let it calm down for a few days, and see if there are any changes. If not, I can only write a letter to Mr. Azik... Klein made a quick decision and released the soul of the "Requiem Master" without hesitation.

He also plans to gradually replace the "Wind-loving One" and "Doctor" in the future, as well as the "Witch of Pain" depending on the situation.

On the side of the long bronze table, the soul of the "Requiem Master" emerged, but because of the changes it had undergone, it could no longer survive after losing its attachment and quickly dissipated completely.

His extraordinary characteristics then emerged, and the whole thing was black, with pure light flickering at the core, like a night sky dotted with stars.

After completing this task, Klein did not delay any longer. He threw items such as "Creeping Hunger" onto the pile of debris, then quickly returned to the real world, ended the ceremony, and dealt with all the traces.

Then, he washed his face and brushed his teeth normally, allowing Dwayne Dantès to gradually become more alert.

After leaving the bathroom, Klein, wearing his pajamas, walked to the door with a normal expression, opened the door, and said to Richardson, the personal servant waiting outside:

"Please prepare me a set of clothes suitable for staying at home."

"Yes, sir." Richardson didn't ask why and immediately walked to the cloakroom next door.

It was not until this moment, looking at the servant's back, that Klein truly felt that he had left the adventure and returned to his life.
