Chapter 221: Giving Klein a Little Shock

"Good evening, Sharron. Have you managed to contact your teacher, Reinette Tinekerr?"

Upon hearing the Angel of Secrets, Sharron did not hesitate to reply, "Thank you for the information, Your Highness. I have successfully contacted my teacher."

Sharron then recounted the letter from Reinette, finishing with a respectful tone, "My teacher is very grateful for your help, but she cannot meet with you at this moment. Please forgive her."

"No problem, time is not something I lack. Miss Tinekerr can take her time to recuperate," the Angel of Secrets smiled nonchalantly, glancing meaningfully at Klein in the carriage, saying, "Destiny will guide us to meet at the right time."

This statement was clear. As long as Miss Messenger doesn't give up on investing in Klein, she will become his messenger soon. Whether it's Lynn or the Angel of Secrets, meeting each other is only a matter of time.

Klein did not miss the meaningful glance from the Angel of Secrets. Knowing Lynn's prophetic abilities, Klein understood the Angel's words implied that Reinette Tinekerr is related to him in the future.

'No wonder I suddenly encountered Miss Sharron and Mr. Maric. The angel might have foreseen the future, knowing I would be involved with them and wrote the script accordingly...' Klein thought, not asking the Angel of Secrets what future he had seen.

After these interactions, Klein understood well that the angel would reveal what he wanted to say. Asking about things he didn't want to disclose would only lead to cryptic answers.

"I will convey your words to my teacher..." Sharron paused, also realizing the implication, and responded solemnly.

She wasn't very familiar with the abilities of the Angel of Secrets but had some guesses.

"So you have seen the future again. Can you speak more clearly instead of being so cryptic?" Lynn, unlike the others, did not give his divine avatar any face, complaining bluntly, "Do you know the phrase 'Riddler, get out of Backlund'?"

This statement made Sharron and Maric nervous. Although they knew Lynn had a good relationship with the Angel of Secrets, speaking so straightforwardly to the angel made them instinctively worried.

"It seems your memory has recovered well..." The Angel of Secrets did not mind, just smiled and said, "But please allow me to keep it a secret for now. Some things lose their charm if revealed too soon."

"So it's a good thing?" Lynn rubbed his chin, looking thoughtful.

The Angel of Secrets smiled again, neither confirming nor denying.

'It seems to be a good thing, but what exactly is it...' Klein also pondered silently.

"Don't worry too much about that surprise. When the time comes, you'll naturally know. Now, you should focus on the present," the Angel of Secrets smiled, their gaze sweeping over the four people in the carriage, finally saying, "I hope you are all well-prepared for the upcoming actions."

Sharron exchanged a glance with Maric, then explained their counterattack plan.

The plan was similar to the original, except it now included a demigod.

"The puppeteer Zatwen usually doesn't act with the wraith Steve, but he keeps in contact with Steve. Once we act, Steve will notify Zatwen, who will arrive within three minutes..."

Sharron looked at the Angel of Secrets, seriously stating, "Even in a weakened state, I can only hold Zatwen off for a short time. Please, Your Highness, intervene promptly."

"Rest assured. Since I said I would handle the demigod, I won't let him interfere with your battle," the Angel of Secrets smiled.

Sharron didn't doubt the Angel's words. She knew that what was a difficult opponent for her, a Sequence 4, might just be an easily squashed bug for the Angel.

The carriage arrived at their destination, near the ambush-laden abandoned warehouse.

They got off the carriage. Despite the angel's presence being somewhat awkward, Klein overcame his feelings, confirming with Sharron and Maric that they had the necessary explosives and fireworks before preparing the site.

As a magician, Klein chose a battle style similar to the original, preparing meticulously for the upcoming fight. He also planned to test whether a splendid performance and an audience were key to digesting the magician's potion.

Sharron hid in the air, turning into a wraith again, preparing with Maric to lure the enemies.

Lynn's divine incarnation entered a state of psychological invisibility, following Sharron and Maric to ensure no surprises, like Zatwen arriving early and killing them.

Lynn's main body found a perfect spot in the warehouse to observe, setting up defenses and saying to Klein, "I'll be buffing you here. But considering the volatility of battle and my being just an ordinary Sequence 7, make sure you manage the enemies well so that it doesn't hurt your support."

Hearing Lynn, Klein looked at him, noting the many pockets on his outfit. Recalling Lynn's previous attacks, Klein silently pondered for a moment before suddenly asking, "Sequence 7?"

He remembered Lynn had just advanced to Sequence 8 not long ago.

"Oh, didn't I tell you? I bought the materials for the Warlock potion at a Beyonder gathering yesterday. Now I'm a Sequence 7 Warlock!" Lynn smiled proudly, "So Klein, if you don't advance soon, I might surpass you."

Yes, Lynn had advanced to Sequence 7 Warlock. It wasn't surprising since he had fully digested the Melee Scholar potion long ago. Sequence 7 materials weren't particularly rare.

Lynn didn't care much about this, as whether his main body was Sequence 7 or 8 didn't matter significantly to him.

But Lynn decided to give Klein a little shock.

After all, if not now, there wouldn't be another chance.

Klein: ...

Is this what it's like to see a cheater?

Although he had been digesting potions at a speed unimaginable to most, Klein still felt like he was seeing a cheater.

This prompted him to ask, "How did you manage it? You just advanced to Sequence 8 less than a month ago."
