Part 3 The Traveler Chapter 142 A Warning
Inside the lavatory, the wet and dry sections were separated, and a pervasive vapor enveloped the entire bathtub.
Klein’s entire body, except for his head, was submerged in the hot water and lay there comfortably, not even wanting to move his toes.
What a wonderful night… …… If only there wasn’t Cynthia outside, I’d still have to deal with her later… …… Klein sighed and considered how to find an excuse to avoid the intimacy afterward.
In accordance with the characteristics of Admiral Emilius Levitt, he decided to start with his work first, and followed up by lining up reasons such as he had recently been unwell, had lost that aspect of his body due to an injury, had just taken a drug that required some time to digest, and had suddenly awakened to his true sexuality looking at a curly-haired baboon made him feel browbeaten, and so on.
As for whether this would cause damage to the image of the admiral, Klein did not have any psychological pressure at all, as long as he did not let Cynthia suspect that he was a fake Emilius Levitt, he was considered to have successfully completed his mission.
How to explain those excuses afterward, how to find a reason to return to normal, it’s all Admiral Emilius’s problem, what does it have to do with me, Germaine Sparrow? What does Germaine Sparrow’s tarnished image have to do with me, Sherlock Moriarty? Klein stood up cozily and walked wetly outside, wrapping a towel around his body and wiping it off.
Changing into the robe that hung there, Klein drew in a silent breath and, as if on guard, unlocked the counter lock and unscrewed the door to the lavatory room.
Seeing the hallway empty, with only the glow of the wall sconces on either side illuminating the darkened aisles, Klein relaxed a little and stopped being so tense.
This is almost as good as the feeling of challenging the pirate generals …… In the midst of muttering, he suddenly realized a serious problem, that is, he does not know which is the master bedroom and which is the study.
In any case, it is necessary to greet Cynthia, otherwise it will look like “Emilius” admiral is weak and odd …… Klein recalled the layout of similar houses, trying to find the master bedroom.
Just then, the door to the room diagonally across the hall creaked open, and Cynthia, who was wearing only a silk robe, stepped out.
Her blonde hair hung down in a slightly messy manner, and there were even a few strands floating in front of her azure eyes and bright red lips, leaving her eyes half-hidden and her lips seemingly open and closed, making her look extremely alluring in the dim and ambiguous environment.
The neckline of that silk nightgown was opened wide, and the snowy whites and gullies were reflected into Klein’s eyes at the same time.
…… Klein nearly raised his head and looked out at the ceiling to escape this strong stimulation.
Calm down, calm down, you’re Emilius Levitt …… and you’re also someone who has seen a sperm-sucking witch …… Compared to the “Disease Maiden”, this young lady’s charm is obviously not enough! …… Wait a minute, why would I even think about magical girls? Who knows if they used to be male or female. …… Klein held his gaze and even “playfully” looked at them from top to bottom and back again. He looked at them from top to bottom, and bottom to top.
At this moment, he could feel that primal desire, but the lower half of his body was motionless ……
”Is this the second manifestation of the temporary contract? Actually, Admiral Emilius didn’t need to be so troublesome, even if the impulse arose, I can still control myself …… What scene have I not seen before?
”Well …… Cynthia and the information recorded in a bit different ah, not that she became Emilius mistress only one or two years, and most of the time can not see each other, in that kind of thing is more unable to let go, every time have to admiral coaxing it? Why is there a tendency to actively seduce today?
”Is it because she senses that her position is unstable, or has she been replaced as well?” Since becoming a “faceless man”, Klein looked at everyone as if they were fake.
Cynthia’s eyes were lowered, the courage she had been forcing up disappeared a little bit under Emilius’s scrutiny, her face gradually colored with a shocking blush, her heart blushing and slightly proud at the same time.
Then she heard His Excellency the Admiral calmly command:
”Prepare coffee for me and put it in the study.
”I have much to attend to to-night; you need not wait for me.”
”…… “Cynthia looked up in bewilderment, the blush still on her face.
For a moment she could not comprehend Admiral Emilius’ words.
Klein took a quiet breath and moved forward to hug the other party, kissing her forehead lightly:
”I’ll be with you in a few days.”
Such a response came from the information, and he changed the wording only slightly.
Frankly speaking, if he didn’t know something about it beforehand, Klein must have thought that Admiral Emilius would have that same face when he was with his mistress, when he was exercising in bed, and that he would be very serious in everything he said and did, however, this demigod also had a side of a softer tone of voice, words, smiles, and flirtation, he just wasn’t very good at saying love words.
This made him realize one more thing, that is, many people only look at the surface, can not imagine his private appearance, “faceless man” to do the real disguise must have a detailed investigation and full understanding, just like a magician does not perform unprepared.
Cynthia showed obvious disappointment, but quickly collected those emotions, piling up a smile and said:
”Good.
”General, your pajamas are in your room, and a bathrobe isn’t really appropriate for handling things.”
This is consistent with the information, more considerate, know how to sympathize with people …… Klein watched Cynthia turn to go into the room, pulling the bell, and he himself took the opportunity to take off the bathrobe, changing into a dark red nightgown and pajama pants of the same color.
Cynthia attentively opened the door to the study, briefly disposed of the slightly cluttered table, and then waited for the maid to make the coffee, receive it herself, and bring it in.
During this process, Klein looked through the documents and information, pretending to be very professional, but in reality, the data and design concepts related to ironclads, sail battleships, and other vessels, he had little understanding of, and was about as illiterate as an illiterate person.
In similar fields, he only knew the concepts of aircraft carriers, air power, huge ships with big guns, multiple turrets, and so on.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Cynthia noiselessly leave and close the door to her room with a smooth click, and Klein breathed a complete sigh of relief, knowing that the night was over.
Inside the master bedroom, Cynthia pursed her lips and pulled the necklace out from under her pillow, holding the black rhino horn-esque item, only the size of a knuckle, tightly in her palm.
She stood and whispered a prayer:
”Great Mother Tree of Desire, please make me even more moving, so that Admiral Emilius will be even more enamored with me, so that he can experience the ultimate pleasure from me and give me a child ……”
……
Inside the quiet study, Klein rustled through the papers piled up in front of him, following the processing method on the information, picking out the simple ones and signing Emilius Levitt’s name with a brush – the reason why he could mimic the handwriting was because the “Faceless Man” could He was able to mimic the handwriting because the Faceless Man could memorize the characteristics of the target, and the Joker provided precise control over it.
For the complicated, less readable ones, Klein wrote similar approvals:
”Study it some more.”
”Busy until the early hours of the morning, Klein stretched his palm over his mouth and let out a small yawn.
No, must get some sleep, still have a lot of challenges tomorrow, have to stay energized …… Klein thought about it and gave up his intention to go back to the master bedroom.
He raised his right hand, pressed down on his two half-closed eyes, and jerked them downward, moving them to either side of the mid-bridge of his nose.
Immediately afterward, Klein in the original location of the eyes, separated two slits, with flesh and blood to disguise a pair of false eyes.
After becoming a “faceless man”, I’m really becoming more and more like a monster …… If only I had this kind of magic skill when I was in school …… He sighed silently, and just like that he half bent down his body, his real eyes closed and his fake eyes open. He was half bent over with his real eyes closed and his fake eyes open, “looking” at the paper and falling asleep.
The “clown” special let him instinctively maintain balance, motionless, as if a marble statue.
After an indeterminate amount of time, Klein suddenly awoke from his dream, sensing that some force was trying to pull him into a deep sleep and invade him!
Who? I haven’t done anything lately, how could someone be trying to enter my dreams? No, I am now Admiral Emilius Levitt …… Klein’s heart moved, and he immediately changed his appearance, even in his dream, and became that demigod.
At the same time, he only felt his consciousness tightening, as if he was hiding from something.
This is different from a normal dream entry ah, I have clearly regained my senses and can break free on my own and wake up, but how can I not leave the dream world …… Klein discovered more oddities after a slight attempt.
He clearly knew that he was sleeping and could sense and manipulate his body outside the dream, but no matter what, he could not wake up!
Immediately afterward, a fuzzy white gas filled his eyes and condensed into an unreadable figure.
Klein’s eyes narrowed slightly, his spirit penetrated the dream world and made his real body move silently, then he put his palm into his coat pocket and touched the “Ninth Law” spell.
At that moment, the blurred figure spoke calmly:
”Don’t get involved with Austen and the others.
”This is a warning.”
…… It’s a bit powerful, even warning a demigod …… What exactly do Auston and the others want to do? Klein thought for a moment, slightly spreading his spirituality, letting the “Ninth Law” rune emit a deep majesty, then imitating it and showing a similar feeling in his dream, then spoke in a deep voice:
”Who are you?
”Who do you represent?”
The vague figure froze for a moment, then sighed and laughed:
”Worthy of being the ‘Weaver’ Emilius, to be able to stay awake in such a situation.”
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. said:
”Answer my question.”
The blurry figure chuckled softly and said:
”You don’t need to know who I am.
”As a demigod, you should know very well that everything has its destiny, and the same is true for every era.
”Don’t defy the destiny of an era, that is, its trend, it will only make you a victim of history.”
The destiny of the era, the trend of the era, the victim of history …… Hearing this, Klein remembered a term in a flash:
”The Twilight Hermit Society.”
But Klein didn’t open his mouth, didn’t spit out those words, because the Admiral of Emilius in recent days was himself.
The blurry figure saw Emilius the Weaver fall silent, and without another word, he turned back into the white air and disappeared into the dreamscape.
