1106 Making Contac (2/2)
Write it now... Fors didn't ask why as she subconsciously said, ”I didn't bring any paper, a pen, envelope, or stamp with me.”
Before she could finish her sentence, the four items were thrown at her.
Fors caught the items and took a few steps out. Using the gas lamps at the end of the alley which opened up to the roads and the hard wall, she quickly wrote the letter to her teacher, Dorian Gray Abraham.
With both hands in his pockets, Klein waited patiently without any signs of impatience.
In fact, he had long been lurking around Miss Magician without showing himself.
According to the address Fors provided, he had been secretly monitoring her from the moment she left home in the afternoon. His monitoring was done by getting his marionettes to pray to Sea God Kalvetua from time to time while his actual body stayed above the gray fog, using the prayer light dots to observe the situation around the Magician.
With the help of his ”true vision,” Klein was currently certain that Zaratul hadn't targeted Miss Magician; thus, it was safe to make contact with her.
After knowing that Miss Magician had met Zaratul's marionette, how could he be at ease and be daring enough to meet her and take her ”Traveling”?
Now, he was certain that Zaratul had been attracted by the Abraham family's Sealed Artifact or Saint of Secrets Botis. As for a mere Sequence 6 like The Magician, she wasn't worthy of notice. Hence, she wasn't exposed.
A few minutes later, Fors finished writing. She used a sticky herbal powder she carried with her to seal the envelope and pasted the stamp.
”Do I throw it into the mailbox now?” Fors glanced at the cover of the letter with her teacher's address and real name and asked hesitantly.
She felt that she had to do it herself. She couldn't hand it over to The World, or it might bring danger to her teacher.
Of course, if Gehrman Sparrow insisted, Fors felt that there was nothing she could do. Even if she tore the letter apart, there was still a possibility of her being hypnotized or having her spirit channeled.
Klein nodded indiscernibly.
”Return after you're finished posting it.”
Phew... Fors let out a long sigh of relief. Turning around, she ran towards the street and found the mailbox.
After finishing all of this, she returned to the dark alley. Without waiting for Gehrman Sparrow to speak, she handed over the fountain pen and the remaining two stamps. She very quickly said, ”One was enough.”
Klein gave Miss Magician a look before he took the stamp and pen and calmly said, ”This means that your teacher's residence is less than 100 kilometers from Backlund.”
Fors's expression froze.
What's the big deal? I also know that your teacher lives in Pritz Harbor, and there's a high chance that he hasn't moved away yet... As for why I gave you three stamp tickets, of course it was intentional... Klein muttered to himself before taking a few steps forward to stand in front of Miss Magician.
He then reached out his left hand that was wearing a transparent glove and grabbed the lady's shoulder.
Fors subconsciously lowered her head again.
The surrounding colors immediately became saturated and layered while countless, indescribable figures flashed. When the things and colors she saw returned to normal, Fors instinctively raised her head to thank him.
However, Gehrman Sparrow had already disappeared!
Fors sized up her surroundings in a daze and realized that she was standing in an empty corner. In front of her was a door, and a din and the smell of alcohol were emitted from beyond the door.
Fors pulled at her cloak and walked out the door with a hint of fear, only to see many men dressed as pirates.
They had scimitars and guns, either hanging or lodged by their waist. While drinking hard liquor, they discussed the strengths of the fleets of Feysac and Loen in high spirits. Quite a number of beautifully dressed women were amongst them, like dancing butterflies.
She was wearing a long, dark-colored cloak in a Backlund style. Her brown hair was long and slightly curled. She had a rather mature temperament, but her expression of fear made it seem like Fors was a lamb that had barged into a wolf pack. It was so disharmonious and eye-catching, and it quickly attracted the attention of many.
She felt a little familiar with what those people had said to her. It was as if they were part of a language branch she had learned, but she couldn't understand them immediately.
Where am I, what am I doing, who are they... As Fors was at a loss, a plump man squeezed over and said in broken Loenese, ”10 soli, one night!”
Fors had been involved in many of the Beyonder circles over the years. Although she didn't know where she was, she knew very well what kind of situation she was in. The light in her eyes flickered strangely before they converged into one point.
An indescribable aura emanated from her body, making the people around her subconsciously avoid her gaze.
This was the authority of a Judge, a qualitative change in the ability of an Arbiter.

Danitz hid in the shadows, watching the intelligence peddler, Bartz, in a serious manner.
