After finishing the divination and returning to the real world, Klein walked to the room outside the rental house, looked at the crimson moon in the night sky outside the window, and thought quietly for dozens of seconds.
Perhaps, there is still a chance to digest the potion... Finally, he muttered silently, dug out something, took the two secret dolls, and disappeared into the dark shadows.
In Backlund, he no longer dared to use the "Flame Jump" because he was afraid that Zaratul would sense it. After all, he couldn't always light the paper cranes folded by Will Auceptin as a precaution. This would be disrespectful to the "Snake of Fate", and constantly "visiting" Dr. Allen would make it easy for their family to be targeted.
A moment later, Klein appeared behind the tall Gothic clock tower in his dream. Hidden in the shadows was Backlund's iconic "Clock of Order".
Then, he and his two secret dolls dispersed and each occupied a different hiding place.
After doing all this, Klein quickly transformed a mouse into a secret puppet, letting it run to the edge of his control ability. He opened his mouth and whispered a honorific name:
"The great god of war, the symbol of iron and blood, the ruler of turmoil and strife, the 'White Witch' Katarina is in this area..."
Klein was not only fulfilling his agreement with the evil spirit "Red Angel", but also hoping that this once high-ranking creature would step into a possible trap for him. At the same time, he was somewhat confused about the true intentions of Soren Einhorn Medici, and did not intend to rush to seek help from the Church of Evernight or the "Mysterious Queen" Bernadette. He planned to observe for a while and confirm the situation to avoid trapping others.
As soon as the prayer ended, the gray mouse suddenly twitched slightly and fell quietly next to the trash can.
It has lost its own life and is no longer Klein's secret doll.
This is Klein's way of preventing himself from being marked by the evil spirit of the "Red Angel".
After giving up the secret mouse doll, he immediately withdrew from the area where the "Bell of Order" was located with Qiunas and Enuni, and asked the "winner" to pray to the "sea god" Kalvetuwa a few thousand meters away.
After the prayer, the man and two puppets continued to retreat, and opened up a considerable distance between them.
Then, Klein hid in the storage room of a certain house, walked four steps backwards, came to the gray fog, and sat in the position of The Fool.
He then waved and took the "Scepter of Poseidon", and with the help of the "prayer light spot" of the "winner", he expanded the range and observed the status of the target area.
At the same time, Klein held the paper stained with the blood of Lieutenant General Disease Tracy in his other hand.
With such a medium and a roughly determined range, under the "real vision", Klein soon found the "White Witch" Katarina who had already disappeared.
The beautiful woman with black hair and blue eyes was wearing a holy white robe. She seemed like a weightless feather, floating lightly in the streets and alleys. The occasional patrolling police could not find her even if they looked in the right place.
If it weren't for the help of the gray fog, Klein could only rely on the "Spirit Thread" to see through this level of invisibility.
After taking a deep breath, Klein patiently waited for the Red Angel evil spirit to appear, and observed what Katarina was looking for.
He suspected that the White Witch's target was Trisschik.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the Crimson Moon gradually tilted. After wandering around the "Clock of Order" for a while without any results, Katarina showed a look of annoyance and disappointment, and it seemed that she might leave the area at any time.
But the evil spirit of "Red Angel" has never appeared!
This... Soren Einhorn Medici was just lying to me and didn't really target the "White Witch"? No, that's not necessary. If that were the case, the entire condition would be meaningless... The "Red Angel" evil spirit has actually arrived at the scene, but like me, it didn't take action immediately, waiting for me and my companions to fight Katarina before cleaning up the mess? I also want to wait until the battle with that witch reaches the most intense stage before suddenly appearing and grabbing the biggest fruit... As Klein's thoughts were in a mess, he vaguely had a guess:
He suspected that the "Red Angel" evil spirit was as cautious, careful and calm as himself, and hoped to be the fisherman who collected the net instead of the net itself.
This is really troublesome... Next, it will be a test of who is more patient... Klein muttered silently and continued to observe the situation in the area around the "Clock of Order" through the "Prayer Light Point".
Tick, tick, tick. The second hand ticked at the same rhythm in the quiet night. The expression of the "White Witch" Katarina became more and more gloomy.
Suddenly, she turned her gaze to the glass window of a building.
In the dim night, it is like a mirror, reflecting what is in front of it.
Catalina's beautiful blue eyes flickered, and the surface of the "mirror" suddenly became dim, as if countless things and layers of space were hidden inside.
That glass window seemed to have become a passage to another world!
Klein's heart moved. Combining the various extraordinary mirror-related abilities that the witch Triss had demonstrated, he suspected that Katarina was about to use the "mirror world" to leave here and end tonight's "hunt."
How could the evil spirit of the "Red Angel" still hold back? Klein's mind tensed up, and he instinctively wanted to put down the "Poseidon Scepter", return to the real world, and take action against the "White Witch" to prevent her from leaving like that.
As his thoughts raced, Klein ultimately did not move.
He felt that he could wait a little longer, because even if Katarina left the area around the "Clock of Order", as long as she hadn't discovered that her daughter Tracy was in trouble, Klein would be able to locate her again. At that time, he would first summon the "Magic Mirror" Arrodes to ask about the target's specific abilities and items, and then either ask the "Mysterious Queen" Bernadette for help, or go to the Church of Evernight to borrow a "Level 1" seal, so that the balance of victory would tilt in his favor before taking action.
I didn't try to hide anything in my actions. If I went to borrow the Sealed Artifact and the Archbishop gave it to me, it would mean that the Goddess's true attitude towards the matter of George III was: she didn't like the king to become the "Black Emperor," but she could only acquiesce. If someone was willing to disrupt the ceremony, she would be happy to provide some help... Klein calmed his slightly anxious mood and made his observation state more relaxed.
At this time, the expression of "White Witch" Katarina returned to normal. She floated to the glass window and went in without a physical body.
The layers of illusory world inside the "mirror" then converged, as if moving away.
At this moment, Klein, who was observing below with his "real vision", seemed to hear a shrill female scream.
The cry seemed to come from another world, containing extreme fear and unbelievable strong emotions.
None of the residents in the surrounding areas were awakened and no one heard anything.
Is this Katarina's scream? What on earth happened to her... Klein's eyes froze instantly, and then he thought of one thing:
The "Red Angel" evil spirit is also an evil spirit, and can also "mirror flash" and use this medium.
In other words, you must be familiar with the "mirror world"!
Could it be that Soren Einhorn Medici had been hiding in the "mirror" all along, waiting for the "White Witch" to fall into the trap? Klein's pupils dilated slightly, and the drowsiness and darkness in the glass window disappeared in an instant.
The "mirror" lost all its peculiarities and returned to its original appearance.
After a few seconds, a little bit of bright red slowly overflowed from the bottom of the glass window, condensed into **, and slid down.
Wherever this ** passed, gray and white spread around, covering the original light yellow, as if it were a newly inlaid stone.
Ta-da, ta-da, ta-da.
Those drops of liquid fell to the ground and spread out, bright red like blood and gorgeous like flowers.
Seeing this scene, Klein's facial muscles twitched slightly, and then he forcibly used the "Joker" ability to control his expression.
Such an ending was really a bit beyond his expectations.
An "immortal witch" who had lived for more than a thousand years, a powerful and experienced Sequence 3 Saint, seemed to have no power to resist the trap set by the "Red Angel" evil spirit, and just stood there motionless.
Even with his two secret dolls and the sealed objects he possessed, Klein himself was still a little behind Katarina's pure strength, and he had to make up for it through advance preparation.
This also means that if he were to face the evil spirit of the "Red Angel", there would probably be no better ending. He would be equally powerless, equally insignificant, and would only be able to slowly sink in the flood.
Is this the former Angel King? Even though he hasn't recovered his peak strength, it still makes people despair... Klein saw that the blood seeping from the glass window was gradually decreasing. He took a deep breath and returned to the real world.
Then, he exchanged positions with the "winner" Enuni, the secret doll, and "teleported" him to the glass window.
When the "Trickster" exchanges positions, he can choose between just swapping his body or swapping external objects together. However, this cannot be done accurately at the current level. Klein cannot keep whatever external objects he wants to keep. He can only choose to keep everything or leave nothing.
As soon as the figure of the “winner” Enuni, who looked like Gehrman Sparrow, appeared, he spoke in a low voice to the glass window:
"I have fulfilled my promise."
A figure suddenly appeared on the glass window.
He was wearing a black robe with red patterns and a hood casually pulled on, revealing a face with soft lines, brown skin, and a pale face. He was none other than the "gatekeeper" possessed by Soren Einhorn Medici.
"Well done." The young man walked down from the window and said with a smile.
Hearing this, Klein took something out of his pocket, raised the corner of his mouth, and responded with a pleasant expression:
"You did a good job, too."
As he spoke, he blew on the monocle in his hand and put it on his left eye.
Soren Einhorn Medici's smile froze instantly.
