Maybe losing the Cufflink is a good thing. He can use it to have Azik board the ship and help him kill Ludwell to take the ring, while Klein claims the Bounty and Creeping Hunger claims the Beyonder Characteristic.
looool bask in the admiration of the crowd Klein 😂 nevermind that they're thinking that you're a maniacal batshit insane madman, it's acknowledgement nonetheless 🤣
Lol he's probably going to say something like "Che, my money bags got away...." to stay in line with the Gehrman character and cover him being upset because he lost a magical item made of a relatively inexpensive murloc beyonder characteristic. Relatively because he's supposedly a bigshot nowdays.
I think it's time for Klein to steal the mental corruption and he won't anything else except that cufflink. Moreover, considering how Ludewell memorized Klein and Anderson, I bet they will encounter in the future and finish the matter.
