Benson and Melissa were silent. When they thought of what Klein said, they couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Audrey thought of her father who almost died and the bloody numbers on the newspaper, and clenched her fingers tightly.

Edward squeezed her little hand and said, "In addition, the recent political situation in Loen is quite unstable. Many people speculate that the Feysac Empire is likely to seize this opportunity to launch a war against Loen, which means that more dangers may come at any time."

Benson said in a deep voice, "So, Klein, you hope that Melissa and I can become Beyonders like you..." He looked at Edward and Audrey again, "like you? But, is it too late?"

Klein said in a firm tone, "No! Doing it is always better than not doing it."

At this point, he handed a note to Edward, "Edward, I need you to do me a favor."

Edward was stunned, took the note and opened it, and saw the words "acting method" written on it.

Klein swore to the goddess not to reveal the method of acting to others (who didn't know), but he couldn't just help his brother and sister drink the potion and then leave them alone, so he thought of asking Edward to convey the message.

Of course, if Edward had also sworn to the goddess, then Miss Justice would do it, and she would definitely have no problem.

"OK."

Edward had been playing the role of a wandering tutor for some time and had become more and more accustomed to teaching people. So, in front of the surprised eyes of the brother and sister, he turned a chair into a blackboard and began to explain potions, paths, and acting methods to them.

Benson and Melissa listened particularly carefully. Lilith felt proud when she saw their expressions, and a sense of superiority arose spontaneously: Humph, Miss Lilith already knew these things, but these two stupid people didn't even know them!

Soon, the course ended and it was time for the much-anticipated path selection session.

Melissa didn't hesitate too much and chose the path of a generalist as in the original book. After all, her understanding of extraordinary people and the extraordinary world was still too vague, but she was quite familiar with machines.

As for Benson, he was quite conflicted.

It's not that he wanted to get hung up on it, but compared to his sister who was more talented in mechanics, he really couldn't find any outstanding qualities in him, and his performance in all aspects was average - in other words, mediocre.

However, he did not continue to struggle with it. Instead, he smiled as if he had suddenly figured it out and said, "I'll choose the warrior path."

"Klein also said that we become Beyonders in order to better respond to emergencies and ensure safety," Benson explained. "And a warrior at Sequence 9 can gain superhuman strength and superhuman agility. If I really encounter danger, I will just hold Melissa and run. Moreover, the role of a warrior is relatively simple and direct. I think even if I want to advance to a higher Sequence, I have a chance."

Everyone was stunned: This... is actually an idea.

Melissa said embarrassedly: "Then I am completely a burden, right?"

Seeing that Benson and Melissa had chosen their own path and calmly accepted the information about the Extraordinary World, Klein breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, then I will help you collect the formulas and materials for these two potions as soon as possible!"

Edward raised his hand and said, "I have all of these."

"ah?"

Klein then remembered that Edward seemed to have purchased a large number of materials for various formulas and low-sequence potions before.

"Okay, how much is it?"

As he spoke, Klein felt a little guilty, because in his pocket was the 5,000 pounds that Edward had offered to the Fool's Followers. It was a little strange to use the money he gave me to buy his formula and materials.

"I'll charge you 500 pounds for the two formulas, and 800 pounds for the ingredients, a total of 1,300 pounds."

Klein suddenly felt a pain in his flesh, but Melissa's reaction was faster and stronger than his. She almost slammed the table and shouted, "Mr. Duo?!"

Benson murmured and repeated, "1300... pounds?"

His current weekly salary is less than 1 pound 10 soli, which is about 6 pounds a month. Including bonuses, his annual salary is only 80 pounds at most.

1,300 pounds, which was his salary for more than sixteen years.

Melissa's face turned pale, and she shook her head repeatedly: "No, no, I don't want to be a Beyonder. With so much money... I can go to Dixie Bay and buy a big house, and then live the rest of my life comfortably and without worries."

Edward smiled and said, "But when you are promoted to a Sequence 6 Mechanical Expert, maybe you can make an extraordinary item and sell it for 1,300 pounds."

"!!!"

Melissa's eyes suddenly sparkled, "Really?"

"Of course. If your skills are good enough, you can just wait for others to give you the materials to build something. The handling fee is thousands of dollars."

Edward took out several extraordinary materials:

"So, these are your initial investments."

Melissa took a deep breath. She finally understood. Klein made her and her brother become Beyonders for safety... She shouldn't think too much about money at this time.

But...

Melissa looked at Edward and asked weakly, "Mr. Edward, I have a question."

"What's wrong?"

"Look, the total cost of the formula + materials is 1,300 pounds, of which the formula is 500 pounds."

Melissa gestured with her fingers. "Then can we just ask for the ingredients without the recipe?"

"…"

Edward: You're quite a clever fellow.

Chapter 375 Watching the Sea at Night

Audrey burst out laughing.

Klein didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Melissa, the trading rules in the Extraordinary World are not like this. Indeed, if we buy the formula and materials from Edward at the same time, you will have a misunderstanding and feel that you have wasted money on buying the formula. But if we look at it separately, without the formula, we actually don't know what materials to buy, nor do we know the ratio of each material."

"Thinking like that is very dangerous in the Extraordinary World!"

After his explanation, Melissa understood and apologized with a red face: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I understand."

The next step is to prepare the potion and take it.

With Audrey helping to comfort them, the whole process went very smoothly, and within a few minutes the brother and sister became warriors and generalists respectively.

The changes brought about by the two sequences were immediate: Benson used to be a clerk sitting in an office all year round and had no time to exercise, but now he immediately felt full of strength; Melissa found that her memory had become super strong, and some knowledge she learned a long time ago could be easily recalled in her mind.

At this moment, they experienced firsthand why becoming an Extraordinary Person was so expensive—because it was worth it, and the changes it brought were truly unimaginable.

Klein also taught them some basic knowledge related to the rituals and left them books on learning the Hermetic language, asking them to master it as quickly as possible. This was not a problem for the brother and sister.

It is very easy for Melissa, a generalist, to remember things, and in the original book, Benson was able to pass the civil service exam by working and studying at the same time, so his learning and memory abilities are also impeccable.

But Melissa sensed something from his tone, "Klein, are you going to leave next?"

Benson looked over immediately.

Klein nodded. He was not sure what Arrodes suggested, so he said, "I have something very important to do next, so I need to go out to sea. You guys stay in Tingen, live well, and act well."

"If you encounter any problems... you can arrange a ritual to summon a messenger to find Edward."

Speaking of this, Klein couldn't help but think of the headless lady in the spirit world. Perhaps I should really have my own messenger.

Although the brother and sister were reluctant, they didn't say anything.

"Ah, Lilith is hungry, let's eat."

Edward said at this time.

Lilith, who was dozing off beside her, was startled and retorted, "Ms. Lilith, that's not the case. It's obviously you who are hungry!"

"Okay, okay, I'm hungry."

With the little guy livening up the atmosphere, the depressed mood of the three siblings improved a little.

"Ah! My stew!"

Melissa remembered at this time and hurried to the kitchen. Lilith jumped off the chair and followed her.

Then their conversation came from the kitchen:

"What's in the pot?"

"Lamb, carrots and potatoes."

"It smells so good."

"Yes, this is what Klein taught me."

"Can you teach me?"

"Okay... but you're too young, right?"

"Not a small one, Miss Lilith wants to learn!"

"That's... okay."

"But, I want to replace the lamb with something else."

"What?"

"Rat meat!"

"???"

After a meal, it was almost 9 o'clock.

Although Klein was reluctant, he decided to leave with Edward after thinking of Arrodes's suggestion.

Before separation, there is inevitably another disappointment.

But compared to the last time they suddenly received the news of Klein's sudden death, Benson and Melissa were not too sad.

"I plan to go to Pridsport tomorrow."

As a few people walked on the quiet road, Klein said softly, "If I could buy a ticket for the day, I would go directly to the sea."

Audrey was surprised and asked, "Edward is also going out to sea, do you want to join us?"

"But isn't Edward already a traveler? Does he still need to take a ship?"

Edward shrugged. "I went to sea for acting, not to a specific destination."

Klein suddenly realized, "Then we can go together."

"By the way, Klein, you mentioned at the Tarot Club yesterday that Ince Zangwill attacked you again?"

When Ince Zangwill was mentioned, Klein's expression suddenly became solemn. He was not simply attacked, but killed by him! It was only because of the blessing of the gray fog that he was resurrected.

"At that time, it was Amon who found me first..."

Klein recounted what happened at that time.

Audrey heard this for the first time and was surprised: "Mr. World, you also met the Angel King?!"
