*Chapter 41: Hesitation Leads to Defeat!*

'The Killer in the Mist!'

The enemy had just been lurking nearby.

That 'Flesh Cultist' was able to silently infiltrate the room and ambush him, undoubtedly the work of that person.

The quick dispatch of Mrs. Pence and the killing of the butler were likely also done by tha...

*Chapter 40: Ambush!*

The night was as dark as ink, and the crimson was like blood.

A sinister grin appeared on the man's face, his pale teeth chilling to behold. His low laughter was like the growl of a beast erupting from his throat.

The man held Mrs. Pence by the neck with one hand, lifting her o...

*Chapter 39: The Secret of Secrets!*

“‘Secret Realm’?”

When Goethe heard this term, he almost instinctively thought of his status as an apprentice "Keeper of Secrets."

Could it be that managing the supernatural isn't the main job of the "Keepers of Secrets"?

Is it the so-called "Secret Realms" instea...

*Chapter 38: Have You Heard...*

No clues at all!

Another dead end!

The people in the lair of the "Foggy Murderer" had not directly participated in the killing of "his" relatives.

In other words...

"Did the 'Foggy Murderer' do it all alone?"

Goethe's narrowed eyes flashed with a cold light. 2024-08-11 13:55:57 +0000 UTC View Post

*Chapter 37: Approaching!

*"Child of Flesh and Blood"?*

Gawain was intrigued by this new term.

Mrs. Pence didn't answer immediately. Instead, she bent down and carefully examined the corpse.

After about half a minute, she stood up and looked at Gawain with undisguised admiration in her ey...

Chapter 36: The Child of Flesh!

The tall and burly assailant's body collapsed to the ground.

Despite his nearly invulnerable body, the eyes and mouth remained vulnerable.

Goethe, watching the assailant fall, didn’t approach immediately. He reloaded his weapon and then aimed at the assailant’s mouth and ey...

Chapter 35: A Backup Plan!

The "guy" behind Old Bill died with his eyes wide open.

He clearly couldn't believe that even after taking a hostage, Goethe would still order to open fire, completely disregarding the hostage's safety.

Regret, remorse, and resentment.

These emotions began to surface in h...

Chapter 34: Changes!

That guy?!

Gawain's eyes narrowed instantly.

There were many people Swart could refer to as "that guy," but there was only one "that guy" both of them would recognize—a scoundrel who had beaten them to it at No. 32 Little Durian Street.

Gawain never minded a good fight....

Chapter 33: The Plan

Flesh Church?!

Gawain and Kyle were simultaneously drawn to it.

"The exact time when the Flesh Church appeared is unknown, but there are rumors that King George I's death is related to them. In the 120 years since then, every disturbance and killing in the kingdom has their sha...

Chapter 32: The Church of Flesh and Blood!

"There are far too many uncertainties in the 'Extraordinary World.'"

"In fact..."

"They are far more terrifying than you can imagine."

"They are intangible, without form, yet omnipresent, and they appear without any warning."

"When you face them, you will not only n...

**Chapter 31: The First Lesson

The sudden question caught Goethe off guard.

He shook his head, surprised that Mrs. Pence wasn't focusing on Kiel.

"I don't know," Goethe replied honestly.

"Secret Arts are the 'extraordinary powers' that 'Gifted Ones' can manifest by speaking Tufurian in a specific order...

*Chapter 30: Mrs. Pence

As Kiel hurriedly tidied up, Goethe had already refreshed himself and returned to the hall.

He then noticed an elderly woman emerging from one side of the corridor.

She wore a plain black dress, which made her appear very modest. The black-rimmed glasses added a touch of severi...

Chapter 29: Discussing Heroes!

At 2 PM, Goethe was promptly awakened by Swart.

No nightmares.

Two hours of deep sleep had completely restored Goethe's energy.

In the washroom, Goethe carefully washed up and changed his clothes.

The visit at 3 PM today was crucial for him.

"Extraordinary Lan...

Chapter 28: The Past Persistence Will Not Change!

Sheila, a standout figure at the Garden Club.

Or rather, its star.

Young, beautiful, with a gentle demeanor, she seemed like a true lady. Moreover, she possessed wealth that most ladies, who depended on their fathers or brothers, did not have—those so-called ladies' lives wer...

*Chapter 27: An Unexpected Visitor*

"What's down there?"

Swart pressed on, but his two subordinates couldn't give a coherent answer.

Slap, slap!

The police chief raised his hand and gave each subordinate a sharp slap across the face.

This time, they snapped out of their stupor.

"What's ...

### Chapter 26: Superior Firepower!

Swart swore he didn't do it on purpose.

It was...

An instinctive reaction.

Including the moment he shut his eyes as the butcher knife came down—it was also instinctive.

Then, the sheriff felt a sudde...

Chapter 25: Revenge, if delayed, is as uncomfortable as eating leftover fried rice with eggs!

The voice seemed to have a magical power, making Goethe groggy. But the moment the word 'home' sounded, Goethe woke up.

'Home'?

Although he didn't know if he could go back yet, this wasn't his home!

Looking at the palm reaching towards him, Goethe took a step back and dod...

### Chapter 24: Aunt!

Aunt.

Krista Wayne.

A girl who liked to wear white dresses, always had a smile on her face, and was very willing to give "him" extra pocket money.

Yes, a girl.

Although referred to as an aunt, Krista Wayne was only five years older than him, the child of his grandfa...

### Chapter 23: The News!

Back in his hometown, when Gord used to moonlight as a "cleaner," he had encountered a fair number of corpses and many gut-wrenching scenes.

So, the carnage at No. 32 Little Durian Street didn’t faze him at all.

In fact, he felt a strange sense of familiarity.

And in th...

### Chapter 22: No. 32 Little Durian Street

*The Keeper of Secrets?*

Gord muttered this word, which he had heard for the first time, and etched it firmly in his mind.

Then, he asked directly.

"Can people with insufficient talent, or no talent at all, still use 'extraordinary powers'?"

Gord had asked ...

## Chapter 21: The Secret Keeper

If you asked Goethe what kind of person he disliked the most, people who act all mysterious would definitely be at the top of the list.

Looking at Morley, who was clearly already seriously injured yet still playing the role of the "Riddler," Goethe rolled his eyes.

Riddlers sho...

**Chapter 20: A Temporary Sanctuary!**

As the thought crossed his mind, text appeared—

**[Unarmed Combat (Skilled) → Unarmed Combat (Mastered)]**

**[Unarmed Combat reached the Mastery level, gaining a mastery option: Well-Trained!]**

**[Unarmed Combat (Ma...

**Chapter 19: The Best Choice!**

There’s a solid reason why Matsuko Hotel is the most expensive in Lust.

Gawain stood in the top-floor suite of the hotel, looking down—

A total of eight attackers.

By this time, they had all been knocked to the groun...

*Chapter 18: The Hunter and the Prey!*

Earlier, Goethe couldn't figure out why Lady Sheila would seek out Swart. It couldn't have been to recruit or seek protection.

Swart wasn’t visiting the Garden Club for the first time, nor was this the first time Lady Sheila knew about Swart. If she wanted to meet him, she would ha...

### Chapter 17: An Unexpected Turn...

Was it really Swart that she came for?

Gawain quietly sat back down.

Like the other men in the hall, he watched as a visibly excited Swart, accompanied by the young maid, headed towards the corridor on the side of the hall—leading to the staircase to the second floor.

U...

### Chapter 16: The Garden Club

Could Morey be the "Fog Murderer"?

As this question surfaced in his mind, Gawain began to consider its possibility.

As long as one cleverly utilizes the information gap, it's not impossible to achieve such a thing, Gawain thought.

And given the behavior of someone like Sw...

*Chapter 15: A Brief Rest and Lunch*

Boom!

Severed limbs flew through the air.

This time, Goethe was certain that Pharoah was dead—completely and utterly dead.

He walked over and inspected Pharoah's shattered body.

The man had possessed extraordinary powers!

It was Pharoah who had manipulated H...

*Chapter 14: Beneath the Mask of Caution and Madness...*

Flames flickered, and the explosion roared deafeningly.

Windows, doors, and fragile walls were instantly shattered by the shockwave.

Along with them, Dr. Hode’s body was also blown to pieces.

Swart crouched by the side of the carriage, holding onto his hat. He glanced a...

*Chapter 13: When Goethe Suspected a Trap...*

Dr. Hode is dead?!

Goethe frowned.

It was too much of a coincidence that Hode died just after Goethe had Swart investigate him.

If Goethe only suspected that Hode was suspicious before, now he was certain—Hode definitely had issues!

"It was a suicide! He left a no...

### Chapter 12: Spend Wisely, Save Wisely

*Expense of Public Funds.*

Goethe was quite familiar with the Garden Club.

He knew the ins and outs, how to handle himself.

So, he was well aware of what could be done with 5 gold tickets there.

The entrance fee was 1 silver coin.

The fee for a tea se...
