Little did Klein know that Lin Ruo had already planned to take Leonard and Leonard's grandfather on a raid after his promotion. At this moment, when he heard what Lin Ruo said, he glared at him, the meaning very clear—"Why is it like this? Don't you know why?"

If Klein initially thought that Lin Ruo's chosen targets were random, after some things happened later, he understood that this guy was deliberately helping him provoke powerful enemies at sea.

Even after Klein exposed this, this guy could still argue plausibly: pressure creates motivation. How can you grow quickly without establishing a few strong enemies?

It was completely reasonable, making Klein, the victim, clench his fists.

Although he knew Lin Ruo was doing it for his own good, he was still annoyed!

"Alright, put away that witch's characteristic. Danitz will come to clean up later. Let's go back to the hotel and pack up!" Lin Ruo acted as if he didn't see Klein's expression at all, smiled naturally, and said, "You've been wandering at sea for so long, you must be tired. When we go back later, do you want me to take you to Tingen to see your brother and sister?"

"Yes, please." Klein said quickly, his eyes softening as he thought of his sister Melissa and brother Benson. Then, he seemed to think of something else and said with some guilt: "Speaking of which, I originally promised Melissa that I would write to her often after arriving in Backlund, but now, apart from the first letter to report my safety, I haven't written a single letter in so many days…"

As he spoke, Klein didn't know what he thought of, and suddenly showed a pained expression.

"What's wrong with you?" Lin Ruo looked at the change in his expression, feeling a little puzzled.

"The house…" Klein uttered two words, his expression still pained, as if he had suffered a great loss. "If I had known, I would have just stayed in a hotel for one night when I first arrived in Backlund."

He had been wandering outside for so many days, wasting so much rent!

Although he was now a person with several thousand pounds after this period of hunting, Klein still felt quite distressed when he thought about the money wasted on rent.

Lin Ruo: …

What else could he say? He could only say, as expected of you, God of Poverty!

Lin Ruo couldn't help but feel a little amused, but he wasn't surprised. After all, even when he had tens of thousands of pounds in the original book, Klein would still feel distressed about spending a few extra pounds. This was nothing compared to that.

Loving money wasn't shameful. Although Lin Ruo regarded money as dirt, he could still understand Klein's fondness for pounds.

Moreover, Klein wasn't really stingy. He wouldn't save money where he needed to spend it. Being a little calculating at other times wasn't a big deal at all.

Although he felt sorry for the rent, the rent that should have been wasted had already been wasted, so Klein naturally wouldn't dwell on this matter too much. He then walked over and picked up the characteristic extracted from the woman's body. As for the corpse, he didn't care, because Danitz was now responsible for exchanging the bounty.

Lin Ruo switched to the Traveler sequence at this time and took Klein back to the hotel where the three of them were staying.

The two then began to pack their respective belongings, waiting for Danitz to return after exchanging the bounty, and after saying goodbye to him, they would end this trip to the Five Seas.

But just as the luggage was about to be packed, Klein suddenly froze.

"What's wrong?" Lin Ruo looked at him.

"There's movement above the gray fog… I have to go up and take a look." Klein didn't hide anything and answered directly, after all, there was nothing to hide from Lin Ruo.

It's finally here… Hearing this, Lin Ruo wasn't surprised at all, because he remembered what day it was today.

Today is August 19th.

In the original book, Little Sun prayed to the thing connected to the Sefirah Castle today and was pulled into the Tarot Club by Klein.

In fact, when Lin Ruo was arranging the assessment, he had considered whether to postpone the assessment for a few days to avoid conflicting with Little Sun's prayer, but after thinking about it, he decided not to do that and just timed the assessment well.

Of course, Lin Ruo wasn't without worries about whether there would be other situations that would prevent Little Sun from praying on time. Now that Little Sun had really come online on time, he could be considered relieved.

After all, Lin Ruo wasn't without thoughts about the Forsaken Land of the Gods and the group of people from City of Silver.

Although many thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, Lin Ruo remained calm on the surface, only revealing a slight look of doubt, "There's movement above the gray fog? Okay, then you go up and take a look quickly, I'll watch over things for you here."

Klein nodded, not wasting any time, and immediately reversed four steps, arriving above the gray fog.

Just as he appeared in the position belonging to the Fool, Klein's gaze swept around, and he immediately saw a crimson star that was weakly contracting and expanding again.

Klein remembered that crimson star. Several times after the previous Tarot meetings, he had seen a boy speaking Giant through that crimson star. That boy prayed to the gods, hoping that the gods could save his father and mother.

However, Klein was powerless to do anything about it at that time, and he couldn't even pull the other party onto the gray fog.

I wonder how his parents are doing. It's been so many days… Klein pursed his lips and quickly extended his spirituality to touch that crimson star. Sure enough, he saw the boy speaking Giant again.

The other party was still kneeling in front of that pure crystal ball, wearing black tights that were completely different from the styles of the countries in the Northern Continent, and was constantly praying with his head lowered, but his tone was very painful, as if he had just experienced a great misfortune.

Klein listened carefully, and the content he heard was similar to the last time, except that there were fewer words praying for the salvation of his parents.

"Great gods, please turn your gaze back to this place abandoned by you."

"Great gods, please let us, the people of darkness, get rid of the curse of fate."

"I am willing to dedicate my life to you and please you with my blood."

No longer praying for the gods to save his parents… His parents are probably already… Although he had expected it, Klein's mood still couldn't help but become a little heavy. He stared at the boy, thinking of the legends about the Forsaken Land of the Gods that Lin Ruo had once said, listening to the boy's words praying for the gods to save the people of darkness, closed his eyes, and then made a decision.

Klein immediately stretched out his right hand and touched the illusory crimson star.

Along with the crimson light erupting like a tide from the illusory star, a boy with brown-yellow hair appeared above the gray fog.

…

Above the gray fog, in the towering palace, Derrick Berg looked at everything around him in astonishment, looking at the figure shrouded in thick gray fog sitting across from the ancient and mottled bronze table.

Originally, because of the curse of City of Silver, in order not to let his parents become monsters, he had no choice but to kill his own parents with his own hands. He no longer held too much hope for the gods, and only prayed numbly. At this moment, his heart was beating almost uncontrollably fast.

Everything in front of him was too incredible, making him almost immediately think of the gods.

Have the gods finally responded to him?

"You, are you a god?" Derrick Berg couldn't help but ask.

Then he received an answer.

"I am not a god, I am just a Fool interested in history."
