Lord of Mysteries: S Chapter 192: Meeting at Night

Chapter 192 - eting at Night

Alger had previously ntioned that he could find the horn of a Black Striped Black Snake at the Tarot Club. He never expected this gentleman to be so efficient. He had already succeeded on Thursday.

Ebner received the ssage from Mr. Fool before dinner. Then, he held a "bestownt" ritual and received the ingredients.

Xio looked at the black horn that seed to flash with electricity and pursed her lips, but she didn't reject it. Instead, she put it away and asked, "How much did you spend?"

Ebner knew Xio's character. Hee didn't pretend to be generous or take the opportunity to raise the price. Hee only replied honestly, "700 pounds."

Speaking of which, Ebner didn't hold another sacrificial ritual to send the money to Alger. Instead, he deducted Laughter Longman's bounty and part of the Wind-blessed formula's price. After all, the cost of holding a ritual wasn't low, so he could save as much as he could.

"I'll raise enough money for you as soon as possible." Xio nodded and said seriously.

"There's no need to rush..." Ebner shook his head with a smile and casually asked, "How's your Sheriff digestion?"

Xio thought for a while and replied, "I should be able to digest it in four to five days."

"That fast?" Ebner was sowhat surprised. He rembered that Xio had beco a Sheriff in East Chester County. It had been a month at most...

Xio was like that, Jane was like that, only Beatrice was more normal...

"After learning of the acting thod, I actively maintained the order in East Borough and successfully prevented many cris that I believed to be cris. As such, I received quite a bit of feedback."

So the key to acting as a Sheriff is to take the initiative to eliminate the order-breaking act that I believe in?

Ebner nodded thoughtfully.

After that, Xio recounted what she had seen at Mr. A's gathering. Finally, she said, "Prepare a room for . I'll stay with you today."

"What?"

"It's too late. The subway has stopped running."

...

Tingen, 2 Daffodil Street.

At eleven at night, Klein bade the siblings goodnight before returning to his bedroom.

He sealed the room with his spirituality before taking four steps counterclockwise and arriving at the ancient palace above the gray fog.

Sitting in the seat belonging to The Fool, Klein used his spirituality to touch a star wrapped in golden light. It was a crimson star that symbolized Xio.

Previously, when he had helped The Hanged Man bestow the horn of the Glittering Black Snake to the Tower, he had seen the golden glow on it. He knew that the Tower had held another exorcism ritual for the girl nad Xio, reinforcing the "passageway" once again. However, he didn't have the ti to take a closer look at it. All he could do was watch the "recording" in the dead of the night.

Following that, he saw the petite miss Xio leave a magnificent garden villa after the exorcism ritual. Then, she headed to Backlund's East Borough to deal with the various disputes of ordinary people and track down the "criminal" who had destroyed her order. In just an afternoon, she had successfully stopped a potential evil cri and saved the lives of two families...

The "recording" lasted until she went to Empress Borough to et a friend. Then, they waited together for a Miss nad Audrey to attend a Beyonder gathering.

But just as Xio was about to reach the target building in Empress Borough, the scene suddenly stopped.

It broke again... Klein sighed helplessly. Then, he tapped his fingers on the edge of the ancient long table and thought seriously.

From this recording, Miss Xio is soone with a sense of justice, and her actions are very principled! It's no wonder Mr. Tower trusts her so much and calls her a 'reliable' person... From the looks of it, it's not just because of their close relationship.

In addition, Miss Xio has a wide network of connections in Backlund's East Borough and the dock area. Furthermore, she's deeply trusted by the people in her "jurisdiction." Be it, ordinary workers or gangsters, as long as they aren't vicious people, they are willing to let her be the arbitrator when they encounter troubleso matters...

"Finally, although this' video 'doesn't show it, this lady likely has an official background. Otherwise, many of her slightly out of line actions would've attracted the police's interference.

Yes, abiding by principles. She's kind and doesn't have a high Sequence. She has her own information and resource circle... Overall, this lady is indeed a good candidate for a Tarot Club mber...

After I advance to Sequence 8, I can consider pulling her into the gray fog... Of course, the premise is that she's willing.

With this in mind, Klein conjured a new divination statent on the goatskin.

"Miss Xio joining the Tarot Club will bring

danger."

Putting down the fountain pen, he removed the spirit pendulum that was wrapped around his wrist and held it firmly with his left hand. He also made the topaz pendant hang in the position where it was about to touch the goatskin.

After reciting it seven tis, his eyes darkened and the spirit pendulum in his hand began to move slightly, counterclockwise.

The answer was no, no...

Klein nodded before realizing that it was late. He hurriedly left the palace above the gray fog and "returned" to his bedroom.

He removed the spirituality seal and stood in front of his desk. Under the light of the gas lamp, he looked out the oriel window. At that mont, the nearby street was dark. There were only a few street lamps leading the way. The stars in the sky were embedded in the black curtain. Bit by bit, they weren't clear.

So it turns out that Backlund, which is known as the Land of Hope and Capital of Capitals, is also like that... I thought that only Tingen had a lower street... From Miss Xio's point of view, I can tell that the people in the East Borough of Backlund are inferior to Tingen's lower street! Klein muttered silently as he reached out to hold the curtain, preparing to pull it.

Wu!

At that mont, a gust of cold wind blew past without warning. His bedroom window opened by itself.

Klein subconsciously took a few steps back and instinctively tapped his left molar twice. At the sa ti, he suddenly leaned against the bed and attempted to take out the pistol under his pillow.

But at that mont, a slim lady suddenly jumped in with the help of a special Spirit Body from outside the window. She had blue eyeshadow and blush on her face, giving her a bewitching beauty.

It was Madam Daly, whom Klein had t at the Blackthorn Security Company this afternoon.

"Don't be so passionate. I can't withstand your bullets," said Madam Daly with a smile as she looked at the black muzzle.

"Ma'am Daly? Why are you here in the middle of the night?" Klein asked, dumbfounded. However, he didn't let down his guard because it was possible that soone was pretending to be Daly.

"It's ... I know that such a visit is too crude. I should give you so hints so that you can be fully prepared... However, I actually ca up with it on the spur of the mont. I had no choice," Madam Daly replied with a smile.

Although I still find it unbelievable, it's indeed Madam Daly's way of speaking... Klein lampooned inwardly as he asked without lowering his gun,

"Ma'am, why are you here?"

"If I were you, I would first seal the bedroom with my spirituality. Otherwise, your family might misunderstand when they see

in your bedroom at this ti." Daly glanced at the door and joked with a smile.
