"Dear Mr. Aztec,
"Ever since we entered September, Baekeland's temperature has been dropping by the day. Recently, you can even see elderly people wearing gloves when they go out.
"Just like last year, the fog has begun to envelop the city. There will be one or two days a week, or even more. Clearly, the control of air pollution isn't something that can be completed in a year or two. It will take at least five years. What's good is that the pungent smell in the air has lessened significantly. My Sanguine friend is very satisfied with such weather conditions.
"Another joyous change is that more and more students, postmen, and technical workers are buying bicycles. The number of horse carriages on the streets has decreased significantly. This means that horse feces and its smell are no longer the main source of air quality in Baekeland. Of course, they still occupy a rather important position. As you know, those gentlemen and ladies who think of themselves as important won't casually lower their standards. However, according to my observations, their children are gradually becoming interested in bicycles.
"During this period of time, I've been living a normal life. I go to Saint Samuel Cathedral and the Rouen Charity Bursary Foundation a few times a week. I participate in their activities and continue donating cash. Occasionally, I'll watch horse racing, watch theater performances, enjoy symphonies, play cards, and play golf at the club. On the weekends, I'll hold banquets, balls, and salons.
"I forgot to tell you that I've already bought a manor. It originally belonged to the Duke Of Negan's family, and it's called Maygur. It has its own high-quality vineyard and brewery, as well as a large forest and farmland. It can be used for farming and hunting. Its main house is a square with a long edge missing. It has a total of four floors and a large number of rooms. I walked around it for a while without leaving the foyer, but I walked more than ten thousand steps. At the same time, it has a large number of sculptures, oil paintings, decorations, and exquisite cutlery. It's as grand as a palace.
"Perhaps my description is a little exaggerated. After all, I've never seen a real palace. This is also the first manor I own. I still remember that back in Tingen, I lived in a two-room rented apartment with my brother and sister. Every day, I had to smell the smell of coal to sleep.
"This was introduced by Brigadier General Qonas Kilgor. It cost me a total of 20,000 pounds. You don't have to worry about my financial situation. I earned a huge sum of money in the Southern Continent and sold some mystical items. I currently have 17,000 pounds in cash, 15,000 pounds in gold bars, as well as many gold coins, soli, and pence.
"I'm rather satisfied with Maygur Manor. I've sent my former valet, Richardson, to be the manor's steward. It's now autumn, and I'm about to invite guests to spend a pleasant weekend there. I hope that Richardson will be prepared.
"Baekeland's Mysterious World has not changed for the time being. May it continue like this.
"The magic mirror that I mentioned previously has already recovered, but it seems to have left behind some post-traumatic stress disorder that targets Amon. As long as I mention the relevant things in the question, it will automatically change the color of the text and give me the wrong answer. It will also ask me for praise again and again.
"It also has a different view of leaving the Church of the God of Steam. It seems to have decided to stay for a period of time, believing that it's safer. It even wants to reveal its harmfulness and become a Grade 1 Sealed Artifact. I have to say that its train of thought always surprises me.
"Thanks to some of its answers, I found a way to create pure darkness. It's to use an Evernight domain charm that has a dream to create it. This is the response of the Evernight Goddess, so it can be classified as pure. In addition, after repeated experiments, I've finally grasped the Cogitation Engraving of godhood symbols and created the item I want."
Upon writing this, Klein, who was sitting on the sofa with his thigh as a desk, couldn't help but stop writing. He raised his hand to rub his temples.
Failure after failure meant the loss of one Worm of Spirit after another. And every time he separated a Worm of Spirit, it was a lacerating injury to his Spirit Body. He needed a relatively long period of time to recover.
Therefore, in order to prevent any accidents, he didn't push himself to his limits. After separating three to four Worms of Spirit, he would choose to rest for a few days before attempting to inscribe them. He would try and stop from time to time. Only now did he completely grasp the method and produce a finished product.
Glancing at the rectangular "diamond" beside him, he saw layers of complicated symbols that extended into the void from the constantly refracted light. His head felt a little dizzy, as though he was witnessing a piece of history.
I'll just call it the Yesterday Once More charm … Klein retracted his gaze and continued writing.
"There's another storm coming ashore along the coast. The Upper and Lower Houses of the kingdom have entered the traditional period of discussing important bills. The footsteps of the new year are getting closer and louder. This makes me feel a little worried.
"May you recover as soon as possible and wake up soon."
"Your eternal student, Klein Moretti."
Putting away his pen and folding the letter, Klein blew Aztec's copper whistle and summoned the nearly four-meter-tall skeleton messenger.
Unlike in the past, this messenger only revealed its head and arm. The rest of it was below the floorboard and on the second floor.
This made it appear much shorter than Klein.
After all, I can barely be considered a Blessed of Death now … Klein handed the letter to the messenger and watched it disintegrate into a waterfall of bones that drilled into the ground.
After doing this, he picked up the Yesterday Once More charm from the armrest of the sofa.
This was his first successful product, and he planned on using it for himself. After all, with experience, it would be easy to make more in the future.
As for whether borrowing strength from his historical self was dangerous, Klein had already divined above the gray fog ahead of time. He believed that if it involved the real Fool or the owner of the door of light, the gray fog and the mysterious space would be able to withstand it.
And the result of the divination was that it was very safe.
After staring at the diamond-like charm for a few seconds, Klein no longer hesitated. He opened his mouth and said a word in ancient Hermes:
"History!"
The reason why he attempted it in the real World and not above the gray fog was that he was worried that the mysterious space would cut off his ability to trace the past.
As the inarticulate voice echoed, Klein injected his spirituality into the Yesterday Once More charm.
Light that scattered like hair lit up, illuminating the surroundings in a clear and pure manner.
Vaguely, a scene flashed before Klein's eyes.
It was him dancing beside Ince Zangwill's corpse with Daly Simone;
It was Dawn Dantès, who had white sideburns and had an outstanding temperament;
It was German Sparrow, who had landed on the Black Tulip under the blessings of the wind while pressing down on his top hat;
It was Sherlock Moriarty, who was struggling with all his might when the meteorite fell from the sky;
It was Klein Moretti, who had summoned "sunlight" when he heard a baby cry at the Blackthorn Security Company;
It was the pale university graduate who had raised his revolver and aimed it at his Sun acupoint.
Further ahead, all the scenes disappeared, leaving behind only a grayish-white fog.
And even when the charm's powers were exhausted, Klein still didn't find the end of the fog.
Indeed, my transmigration has something to do with that gray fog, that mysterious space, and that strange "door of light" … This basically confirms that I was sleeping in the cocoon in the past, hanging on the door of light for an unknown period of time … Compared to the first time he saw the "door of light," he was rather calm after confirming it. It was as though he had long expected it.
Phew, next, I can make two Yesterday Once More charms for will. These charms aren't of much use to me … I won't visit him this week. Feeding him ice cream once a week will always raise suspicions. Even his maidservant is looking at me strangely … Also, since I've grasped the Cogitation engraving method of godhood symbols, I can bring forward the matter of using Worms of Time to make Beyonder bullets. Hmm, Leonard said that he would be heading to Tingen in the next few days to see if he can steal the power of the Mutated Sun Sacred Emblem … Klein rubbed his forehead and got up to leave the sofa.
At a previous Tarot Gathering, Leonard had already handed over the four godhood symbols and magic labels that Pallez Zoroast had given him. They all came from the Marauder domain. It was said that one of them could mislead the enemy and make them make mistakes in judgment. Another one could steal the three Beyonder powers that the target had previously used, starting from the most recent one and backtracking. If one could accurately affect the enemy, it could make them lose a large amount of their lifespan, entering a state of aging. The last one could create a Worm of Time that didn't have a long lifespan. It would silently "Parasitize" the target's body, allowing the user of the charm to control it.
Klein had used the remaining seven Worms of Time to create three Fate Siphon charms in advance. He had given one to Miss Justice and kept two for himself. This also meant that he still had four Worms of Time, allowing him to attempt all four effects. Of course, his intuition told him that he might not succeed in creating all of them.
As for Leonard's two Worms of Time, one of them had become a Fate Siphon charm. According to the teachings of The World's German Sparrow, Leonard had prayed to Mr. Fool and received a response. The other one had been made into a Parasitism charm with Pallez Zoroast's help.
After a busy period, Klein succeeded five times and failed once in the evening. He obtained two Yesterday Once More charms, a Parasitic Bullet, a Deceit Bullet, and a Deprivation Bullet.
His only failure was the Aging Bullet. The reason seemed to be that the level of the mysterious space above the gray fog he could use was still insufficient.
Looking at the three strange-looking bullets that were translucent and translucent, Klein heaved a sigh of relief. He took out Death Knell and stuffed them into it. Inside were the three Control Spirit Bullets he had previously created.
After tidying up the altar, he walked out of the room and went down to the second floor. He entered the dining hall and said to Butler Walter, who was standing beside him,
He entered the dining hall and said to Butler Walter, who was standing beside him, "You can follow the list and invite the guests who will be hunting in the suburbs this weekend."
"Yes, sir." Walter was already prepared for this as he remained solemn and proper.
…
Tingen City, 36 Zouteland Street.
Leonard got off the carriage and looked at the rebuilt building with a complicated expression. He momentarily forgot to enter.
