This is too fast... Has it circled the planet several times... Or maybe it has always been in the same place, but the speed is too fast for my sight to keep up... Klein's mouth twitched slightly, and he decided to wait a few seconds to see if the "unimaginable speedster" would appear again.

He was not worried that the summoned spirit creature would harm innocent people, because one of the descriptions was that it was a friendly creature. Moreover, as long as he forcibly ended the summoning and terminated the ritual, no matter where the "incredibly fast person" ran to, it would be immediately sent back to the spirit world.

After a few seconds, Klein, who had waited for nothing, took a breath and spoke in ancient Hermes:

"I!

"I end this summoning in my own name!"

The coldness around them disappeared in an instant, the swirling cold wind gradually subsided, and the candle flame returned to its normal color.

Klein took a few steps forward and extinguished the candle. He planned to modify the last sentence of the description and make a second attempt.

As for the two sentences "spirits wandering in the void, friendly creatures that can be driven", he did not intend to change them. The first sentence refers to the spirit world and can only be replaced with a synonym, which can be changed or not. The second sentence is the premise for Klein to ensure his own safety. Otherwise, it would not be a funny accident, but a horror story.

Hmm... I don't need to use "beyond imagination" to modify "Speedster", but the other words may not meet my needs. Maybe... I can change my thinking. The messenger doesn't have to run that fast, just normal is fine. There are other ways to ensure safety. Just make those guys with malicious intentions always ignore it and don't pay attention to it... This time, try the spiritual creatures with a weak presence... Klein pondered for two or three minutes and held the ceremony again.

After completing the preliminary work, he chanted a new spell:

"I!

"I call upon my name:

"A spirit wandering in the void, a friendly creature that can be used, a weak being that is easily ignored."

The warehouse suddenly became extremely quiet. There was no wind blowing in the spiritual wall, it didn't get cold, and even the color of the candlelight didn't change.

Klein waited and watched patiently, hoping for a good messenger.

Ten seconds passed, he sighed, looked around and said:

"Nothing. The description doesn't work this time."

He no longer waited, ended the summoning according to the procedure, and extinguished the candle.

What puzzled him a little was that the candle flame shook several times at the end.

Did I overlook something... Klein frowned, then relaxed and put the matter behind him.

He started to think again about how to modify the description, still focusing on the third sentence.

Thinking in another way, if the messenger can take a beating and has a strong survivability, that's also fine. No matter what, anyone who can deliver the letter to the target is a good messenger... Klein pondered for a while and performed the summoning ceremony for the third time.

In the scent of herbs and essential oils, under the dim candlelight, shadows floated on his face, and his mouth opened and closed unsteadily:

"I!

"I call upon my name:

"A spirit wandering in the void, a friendly creature that can be commanded, and an extraordinary being with a strong ability to survive."

The candle flame suddenly stretched out, illuminating the altar brightly and redly.

In Klein's spiritual vision, white bones emerged from the ground, stacked together, and turned into a safe-like creature.

Finally, I summoned something I can see, and it has extremely strong survivability... It looks a lot like a safe, and you can tell at a glance that it can take a beating... Klein breathed a sigh of relief and said in ancient Hermes:

"Will you be my messenger?"

The box-like skeletal creature quickly expressed its willingness.

Then, it moved the bones underneath it and crawled towards Klein, slowly, slowly.

It took ten seconds to crawl one centimeter.

...This is too slow... Klein's smile froze on his face.

Although messengers complete their missions by traveling through the spirit world, it does not mean that they do not need speed.

In the spiritual world, distance and direction are chaotic, and the most important thing is positioning and finding the position.

As long as accurate, clear and immediate positioning is provided, such as the summoning ceremony just now, such as the blowing of the whistle which is equivalent to a simplified ceremony, the messenger can immediately appear on the altar no matter where he is in the spiritual world.

When positioning is not so instant, and there is only a contractual connection or a previous anchor point, the messenger needs to spend time to resolve the position, travel through the spirit world, and search for the target, which requires a certain speed.

If it comes to deliver a letter, the recipient may not be able to wait for it in his entire lifetime... Klein looked at the safe-like skeletal creature crawling forward slowly, and thought helplessly in his heart.

He let the smile from before reappear on his face:

"After careful consideration, I think I can't bother you.

"Thank you for your willingness."

The illusory creature made of white bones stopped, and compared to before, it seemed as if it had not moved at all.

Klein quickly canceled the summons and rubbed his forehead.

He was a little frustrated for a moment and decided to give up on himself and find the messenger in a less troublesome way, which was "open recruitment, interview and selection"!

After taking a deep breath, Klein calmed himself down and began the ceremony seriously.

Looking at the quietly burning candle, he took a step back and said:

"I!

"I call upon my name:

"A spirit wandering in the void, a friendly creature that can be driven, a unique existence willing to be my messenger."

call!

Inside the spiritual wall, the wind suddenly became fierce, and Klein's half-high silk hat almost flew into the air.

The candle flame flickered, expanded to the size of a human head, and was so pale that it seemed to have lost its temperature.

A translucent head slowly emerged as if breaking through a thin film, with smooth light blonde hair, blood-red eyes, and a bright and majestic appearance.

Looks a little familiar... Klein muttered silently.

The head came out completely, and what followed was not a neck, but an illusory hand pinching the end of her hair.

Behind the palms are cuffs with intricate patterns but dark colors.

The summoned spiritual creatures emerged faster and faster, and soon appeared completely in Klein's eyes.

This was indeed a familiar "person", the headless woman standing on the top of the castle that Klein met on his way to the underwater ruins of Kalvetuva.

She was no longer as huge as before, comparable to a castle, she was now just a tall and "normal" lady.

Of course, there was still only a cut on her neck, and she was holding four identical heads in her hands.

"Yes..." "You..." "Calling..." "Me?" The headless woman in a gloomy and complicated black dress stood there quietly, and her four drooping heads spoke one after another in the ancient Feysac language.

They can communicate directly with language... The level of this spiritual creature is not low... I remember you have a castle... You have an industry, why are you still "applying" for a messenger? Klein sighed at first, then complained, and then looked at the candlelight behind the headless woman, and was disappointed to find that no other souls came out.

He originally thought that many spiritual beings willing to be his messengers would flock to him and line up in several rows, waiting for the interview. In the end, only one person responded.

It should be a problem with the ritual itself. This is a relatively simple and elementary summoning ritual. It is impossible to summon multiple targets at once... Klein looked at the headless lady and nodded solemnly:

"Yes."

Without waiting for the other party to speak, he asked two more questions:

"Can you travel through the spirit world at a relatively fast speed? How is your ability to survive?"

The headless woman held the heads in her hands and answered one by one:

"Okay." "Not bad..." "Not bad."

As she spoke, she floated up and then quickly came down, showing off.

Phew… Klein decided not to make any more attempts without knowing what the results would be, and asked seriously:

"Are you willing to sign a contract and become my messenger?"

The headless woman's skirt moved slightly, and the four heads with blonde hair and red eyes nodded at the same time:

"Okay." "Every time..." "One..." "A gold coin."

Huh? One gold coin for each letter delivered? Mr. Azik didn't say that spirit creatures would have such a hobby... Oh, he mentioned that when signing a contract, persuasion and communication should be the main focus. Is this a form of persuasion and communication? Klein was surprised and wanted to cancel the summons immediately.

Wait, it doesn't necessarily have to be paid by me... Whoever summons the messenger will pay... Hey, maybe after better communication, there will be an option of paying on delivery... Klein's thoughts raced as he agreed to the other party's request:

"good.

"Let's sign the contract."

He picked up the dark red round-bellied fountain pen and brown parchment that he had prepared long ago, and quickly wrote the contract in the ancient Hermes language that could leverage the power of nature.

The format and terms were described in detail by Azik in the letter. They were concise and powerful, and included the following provisions: the messenger could not read the letters, discard the letters, or endanger the life of the contractor. Of course, if the content of the contractor's letter involved the messenger, this must be explained to the other party in advance.

In addition to these contents, Klein also added a clause that one gold coin would be charged for each letter sent, and clearly stated that this could be borne by either the contractor or the other party to the letter.

In order to ensure the validity of the contract, the last part is the honorific name of the deity in the relevant field.

This is a necromancy contract, and normally the name of the god of death must be used, but this god of death has fallen for a long time and no longer responds, so Azik mentioned that the description of a high-ranking person in the necromancy realm or the underworld itself can be used instead, but the binding force will not be as strong.

Klein undoubtedly chose the underworld, which had a close relationship with the big boss:

"The destination of all death, the hell hidden deep in the spirit world, the witness of the final decay of all things, the kingdom that belongs exclusively to the god of death."

After these four sentences were written, the ancient Hermetic characters on the yellow-brown parchment began to ignite with pale green flames one after another, illuminating the surroundings with a gloomy and eerie atmosphere.

After finishing the main text, Klein took out the Azik copper whistle, pressed it on the parchment, and wrote down his current name:

"German Sparrow."

This does not necessarily require a real name, because the aura of the person will enter the contract, and the name is only used for summoning. In other words, it can be summoned by "the messenger unique to Gehrman Sparrow", but not by "the contracted creature of Klein Moretti".

After Klein finished signing, the parchment floated up, carrying the Azik copper whistle and dark red pen, and flew in front of the headless woman.

The blond, red-eyed head held by the headless woman bit the round-bellied fountain pen and wrote down her name:

"Reinette Tinicole."

The pale green flames quickly merged into one, enveloping the Azik copper whistle and the yellow-brown parchment.

After a few seconds, the parchment turned into ashes, and the copper whistle fell into Klein's outstretched palm without any change.

The four heads held by the headless woman Renette blinked at the same time, and their figures quickly disappeared and shrank back into the pale candlelight.

——After the contract was reached, Klein no longer needed to use the spell to cancel the summoning. He could complete it with his own will alone.

Phew, finally there’s a messenger, “a spirit wandering in the void, a friendly creature that can be commanded, a messenger that belongs exclusively to Gehrman Sparrow”… Well, there’s a chance to find a craftsman to make an item similar to a copper whistle, so that I don’t have to hold a ceremony every time I summon a messenger… Klein cleaned up the mess in a good mood.

Over the next few days, Bayam gradually returned to normal, but Danitz still failed to monitor the telegrams from the Blood Admiral pirate group.

On Sunday morning, he flipped through the newspaper and suddenly lowered his voice and said to Klein:

"There's a Beyonder gathering tonight. Do you want to join?"
