It was an ordinary paper crane. The moment it flew out, it burst into crimson flames, dropping a few ashes.
The eyes under the monocle had long since lit up with a cold, sinister light.
Suddenly, the flames on the surface of the paper crane disappeared. Klein's ability to swap positions with his puppet disappeared. His 'Manipulate Flames' ability disappeared. His 'Flame Leap' ability disappeared. His 'Air Cannon' ability disappeared!
In that instant, a total of six Beyonder powers were stolen from him, including four very important ones!
If Amon could steal a few more times, Klein might directly turn into an ordinary person.
This was 'Stealing' at the Angel level!
In the dimming firelight, the paper crane slowly fluttered down.
…………
A pure and clear light shone out, illuminating the calendar in the room with perfect clarity.
Today was Tuesday. (Note 1) …………
In the garden of Dwayne Dantès at 160 Berkland Street.
The paper crane, already burnt to fragments and mostly scorched black, suddenly froze in midair. One after another, complex mercury-silver symbols jumped out from it, instantly connecting into a giant, illusory snake without scales.
On the surface of this silver-white giant snake, densely packed patterns and symbols formed a series of interconnected wheels. Around each wheel were different marks.
With a sweep of its bright red, icy eyes, the giant snake soared into the air, coiled up above Berkland Street, and bit its own tail.
Its shadow covered the entire block, like a mysterious and exaggerated wheel.
Suddenly, in the living room of 39 Berkland Street, Councilor Macht, Lady Liana, and several male and female servants put away their smiles. They simultaneously raised their hands, took off the monocles on their faces, and let them transform into streaks of light in their palms, one after another.
Immediately after, they either put on decorative glasses, pinched their eye sockets, or looked out the window leisurely, returning to their previous state.
Hazel collapsed to the ground. As she watched this scene, she shook her head in despair, propping herself up with her hands and backing away repeatedly.
The Amon who wore the face of 'Winner' Enuni, the coldness in his eyes faded, the crystal monocle was slightly askew. He no longer had that feeling of looking down on Klein.
Furthermore, something was slowly being drawn out from within his body, forming a clear, thick, yet transparent and mysterious 'Time Worm' above his head.
And under 'Concealment', this 'Time Worm' quickly transformed into a figure with black hair, black eyes, a broad forehead, and a thin face.
This wasn't time in Berkland Street flowing backward, because Klein, Leonard, and the others were unaffected. It was Amon's own state returning to what it was a few minutes ago!
'Fate Worm', 'Restart'!
Although the fate fluctuation predicted by Will Auceptin had a small problem, being slightly later than actuality, His influence descending from afar was incredibly timely.
And in exchange for the intervention of this 'Fate Worm', Klein not only fed Him five scoops of ice cream of different flavors but also agreed to compensate and give an additional reward. Their preliminary discussion resulted in Klein finding a way to create items that could allow Will Auceptin to temporarily regain a certain level of strength during his weak period, at least two items!
Just as Amon suffered this unexpected blow, Klein did not hesitate at all. He had already drawn the '
Bang!
He calmly and decisively pulled the trigger of the 'Death Knell' revolver and fired the already prepared 'Spirit Control Bullet'.
A silver-black stream of light flashed out, accurately hitting the Amon apparition dressed in a classical black robe and pointed soft hat, hitting the 'Time Worm'—it was thicker and clearer than any 'Time Worm' Klein had ever seen before!
A faint light scattered. The Amon apparition in midair trembled and stiffened there, unable to make any expression.
And at this moment, Leonard, who had already arrived directly above, following the old man's instructions, stood on the 'Sea God's Staff', floating in midair. He slightly stretched his arms and relaxed his spirit body.
In his green eyes, two slightly dim, twelve-segmented, semi-transparent 'Time
These two 'Time Worms', connected end to end, vertically formed an identical ring.
The ring rotated slowly, casting an ancient, mottled, gigantic apparition behind Leonard.
This apparition was like the face of a stone-carved wall clock, divided into twelve segments. Each segment was greyish-white or greenish-black, interspersed, with clear boundaries, and held different symbols. Klein only took a single glance and felt as if his own life was accelerating in its passage.
Dong!
