The Lord Of The Mysteries

The Chapter 197

There's danger there. Not too high, but not too low…

This means Madam Sharon is still inside the building. He hasn't escaped…

Klein froze for a moment, quickly realizing the reason.

He had entered a unique state by calling himself to check the safe. He did not forcefully unlock when he inspected the secret compartment, nor did he activate any hidden traps. Thus, Madam Sharon would not know that her secret had been exposed. He'll just think that there was a break-in, or some private investigator checked it out for nothing.

In such a situation, it is logical that he will continue to stay at home. That makes sense.

Losing her composure due to minor problems and overreacting was not Madame Sharon whom Klein had understood. She was a quiet socialite capable of acting fearfully and pitifully, as well as a Beyonder member of the Demon Sect who had hidden her identity for many years.

If the phone had been found, Madame Sharon would definitely call one of her lovers and complain about the security in Tingen City while hinting that it was Mrs Maynard. He tells Dunn and Kenley the results of his predictions and his guesses.

"That's the most reasonable deduction." Dunn pressed her hat as she looked down at the second floor of Madam Sharon's apartment. "There's no need for us to rush."

"Why?" Kenley, who held the Sealed Artifact 3-0217, instinctively asked.

He was filled with fear towards the Spirit Medium Mirror in his hands. He was afraid that some unexpected event would emerge from the Closed Artifact.

Dunn put on her black gloves and looked at Klein.

"Do you still remember what happened when we tried to catch Trissy's instigator?"

"I remember," Klein replied after thinking. "He seems to be able to detect our whereabouts and make the necessary response, which resulted in him successfully escaping."

I also remember suggesting the use of bombarding the house when the Captain asked me how I would deal with this situation. This is the safest and surest method. But not this time.We can't use it here because there are many innocent servants in Madam Sharon's house. If we tell them in advance and make them evacuate, it will definitely attract the attention of Madam Sharon. According to Leonard, Trissy can become invisible. We have to assume that Madam Sharon also has that ability.

Dunn looked at the red moon in the sky and said, "Good, your answer is very good. You are rather intuitive in such a situation.

"We can't approach it carelessly and end up making Lady Sharon worried.I'll try to drag her into the dream from a distance. If I make it, you and Kenley will go and catch him. Kill him if you can't control him. Your safety is the most important."

Captain, your line of mind is always so clear in such critical moments! I was just waiting for you to say that! Klein praised in his heart.

For months, Klein had understood most of the unique properties of the Beyonder power that differed from his peers as he casually chatted with Dunn, Leonard, Frye, and the others. Among them, Dunn Smith, who was a Nightmare, could freely enter the dream of a sleeping person even though he was at home or at the Blackthorn Security Company.

But how he did it was the secret of his own Order, and Klein did not ask him too deeply.

The ability to drag someone into a dream has a limited range and is usually used during direct confrontation.

But Klein had heard the Captain say that the ability also had a certain effect when used within a hundred meter radius. But he needs time to complete the process. He could not do it instantly, as the process was akin to coaxing a child to sleep.

At this moment, Dunn would drag the distant Madam Sharon into a state of sleep, bit by bit. After completing the first stage of restraint, he would create the most opportunistic conditions for Klein and Kenley.

"Good." Kenley also somewhat accepted the Captain's plan.

Without any more chatter, Dunn leaned against the corner of the wall and closed her eyes. He put his hands together and lowered his head. The black jacket and silk hat blend into the night.

…

In a luxurious bedroom.

Madam Sharon was leaning against her comfortable swaying chair, stark naked. His fair and outstanding figure was completely exposed.

He sometimes turned towards the large mirror to admire her charming self.

As he looked, his face would be reddened as tears streamed down his eyes. His expression exuded a strange gentleness in the middle of his stupor.

The skeleton statue of the goddess was sitting on a table beside her. The thick strands of hair looked soft under the warm pink light.

Slowly, the frequency of Madam Sharon looking into the mirror diminished. Little by little, his eyelids could not help but droop.

…

The seconds turned into minutes when Klein suddenly recalled something. How will the Captain tell Kenley and himself after he manages to drag Madam Sharon into a dream?

Madam Sharon will wake up if the Captain leaves her Nightmare condition, and she will realize something is not right... I wonder if the Captain is able to give a hand gesture while dreaming at the same time? Klein looked at the worried Kenley who was pacing back and forth and intended to discuss this with him to distract him.

At that moment, his mind turned fuzzy. He saw a giant red moon, as well as Captain Dunn Smith in his black jacket under the moon. There was also Kenley who was short, his expression confused.

Klein realized that he was dreaming too!

I've been dragged into a dream by Captain .. So that's how he'll tell us. He wanted to cover his own face, but could only maintain his trance-like state while saying confusedly, "Captain?"

Dunn slightly nodded and said, "Mrs Sharon has entered the dream.You can act now."

He then emphasized, "Remember to be careful, and don't be too rash."

Just as he finished his sentence, the world before Klein was destroyed. His eyes reflected Dunn Smith again. He was still at the corner of the wall, looking down with his hands clenched tightly.

The two exchanged looks and nodded. Both entered the state to carry out their operations.

Although this was the first time Kenley had participated in a relatively dangerous mission, he was still more experienced than Klein. He had attended many official missions, so he quickly adjusted his mental state, becoming calm and sharp.

Of course, this can also be attributed to an increase that night on Sleepless. This was also one of the reasons Dunn chose Kenley over Frye for this operation.

"Let's go." As Order 8, Klein took on the role of leader, gesturing for his partner to follow.

Kenley doesn't mind. He gripped the tightly wrapped mirror and softened his footsteps as he followed.

Klein took him to where he had climbed the wall earlier. He grabbed onto the cracks of the wall and managed to reach the top of the wall with little effort.

He maintained his ridiculous sense of balance and turned around, bowing and grabbing the Medium Spirit Mirror that Kenley had cast.

As he touched the mirror, Klein felt his spiritual perception suddenly tighten. It was as if what was covered by a black cloth was not a mirror, but a door to an unknown and dangerous alternate world.

Indeed, any item that required sealing had an evil side in it. Klein muttered to himself dejectedly as he watched Kenley climb the wall.

To ease the movement, Kenley placed his cane beside Dunn. Klein did not think about it.

After passing through the garden to the side of the building, he climbed a pipe onto the second-floor balcony, just like he had done before.

He then hanged naturally from his feet, letting his body fall, once again picking up the Closed Artifact 3-0271.

Kenley looked at him, confused. But soon, he nodded his head in enlightenment.

At that moment, Klein was startled by his own actions. He exerted strength using his waist, and, with the support of his left hand, he easily flipped.

What the hell just happened? Why am I moving like that? It feels very natural ... Is that the ability of a Clown? He thought back and felt that he was able to display the unique characteristics of a Clown better in actual practice.

After waiting for Kenley to board easily, Klein returned the Spirit Medium Mirror to him before opening the unlocked balcony door.

Kenley carefully pulled the black cloth that wrapped the Closed Artifact 3-0271. He pointed the object's mirror down, reflecting the tiles on the ground.

One of the rules of the Spirit Medium Mirror is to not use it on yourself or your partner!

After getting rid of the black cloth, Kenley took out his revolver and followed behind Klein. They walked through the corridor towards Madam Sharon's bedroom, their footsteps light.

Klein held onto his prepared revolver, and, while activating his Spirit Vision, he grabbed the door handle with his left hand.

He did not dare to be careless as his prophecy told him that there would be danger.

The reason why he did not make another quick prophecy was because he knew the existence of the Primordial Demonness statue within the room. At this distance, his predictions would definitely be interrupted. He knew that there was no way for him to get a clear answer without relying on that barrier of gray fog. Furthermore, with Kenley beside him, it was impossible for him to enter that mysterious space.

After pushing the door open, what entered Klein and Kenley's field of view was the warm glow of the gas lamp.

Then, they saw Madam Sharon slumping on top of her chair, as well as her alluring body.

However, Madame Sharon did not sleep. He leaned back in his chair with a faint smile on his mouth, staring straight at his two visitors.

Instinctively, Kenley flipped his palm and directed the Spirit Medium Mirror at Madam Sharon.

Klein first froze, then exclaimed, "No!"

He clearly remembered that there was a large mirror on the other side of the chair. But it doesn't exist now!

The Spirit Medium Mirror had locked onto Madam Sharon in just a second.

But Madam Sharon's image became blurred before it turned into a full-size mirror.

Kenley looked at himself in the mirror as well as the Closed Artifacts 3-0271 reflecting his own image.

A figure instantly appeared within the Spirit Medium Mirror. It was Kenley's own expressionless and creepy image!

Klein felt his limbs become stiff as if he had been entangled by an invisible thread.

An elegant figure appeared beside the full-size mirror. That's Madam Sharon, wearing a nightgown.

He glanced at the two intruders and chuckled.

"If it wasn't for the statue coincidentally being next to me, I should be fast asleep right now, waiting for you to wake me up with a kiss."

At that moment, Klein suddenly shouted a simple term in ancient Hermes, "Crimson!"

He did not know when he dug his left palm into his pocket. He deftly flicked his finger and cast a Sleeping Spell.
