The Lord Of The Mysteries
Chapter 84's

Looking at his sister's uncertain face, Klein suddenly felt it was a good opportunity. She assessed him and said with a solemn expression, "Melissa, I think you didn't show enough respect for today's banquet either."

"What?" Melissa put on a confused look.

Klein pointed to his neck.

"As a woman, you lack a necklace that accentuates the area."

Without waiting for his sister to say a word, he smiled as he took out a silver talisman wrapped in angel wings from his pocket.

"Thank God, I prepared one for you."

"…" Melissa was surprised at first before she asked, "How much does it cost?"

Brother, your worries are completely misplaced. Klein secretly scoffed with a chuckle, "This is actually not too expensive. Because in a state of incomplete, I imitated items I had seen before and carved blessing spells and beautiful patterns on them."

"You carved it?" Melissa was disturbed.

"Hows it? What do you think of my work?" Klein took the opportunity to hand the talisman to his sister.

Melissa learned it before gently biting her lips.

"i like the angel feathers around it."

If you think the spells and symbols I engraved are ugly then just say so. No need to mince words.The value of the talisman is in its effect! The corner of Klein's mouth twitched. Just as she was about to urge her sister to accept it, she saw Melissa wearing the necklace with a forced expression on her face. He then carefully adjusted the position of the talisman.

"perfect." Klein judged her and gave her excessive praise.

Melissa glanced at him and looked at his talisman. He said listlessly, "Klein, you've never been like that before. Act like that …"

"Maybe it's because of my good work. With a decent income, I became more confident." Klein interrupted his sister and gave a preliminary explanation.

Huh, even though I received a fragment of Klein's original memory, making myself seem natural in most major aspects, certain fine details are still there. I'm still used to displaying my true personality, especially as I get closer and closer to Benson and Melissa.

Melissa seemed to accept her explanation and pursed her lips.

"It's good that you are like that .. so great …"

After the two engaged in a brief conversation, Benson got off after changing into clothes. He was wearing a white shirt with a black tuxedo. His black butterfly tie and a pair of straight trousers made it seem like he had undergone a complete change. It was as if he was a successful entrepreneur after many years of hard work.

Same for the receding hairline. Klein chuckles in heart.

"That's great, Benson. It suits you very well," he said with a brilliant smile as he raised his hand.

Melissa also nodded in agreement on the sidelines.

"The fact shows that my clothes are more important than mine." Benson gave a self-deprecating comment.

Klein took the opportunity to take out the remaining talisman and repeated his explanation earlier before saying, "I also made it for you."

"Not bad. I'll take him." Benson accepted it unceremoniously as he quipped, "Klein, I wouldn't find it strange, even if you suddenly knew how to style your hair, make clothes, fix a watch, etc, and feed the curly-haired baboons."

"Life is full of surprises" Klein replied with a smile.

After which, the siblings tidied themselves up before walking out of the main door. They boarded a public train without a trace and arrived at Jalan Fania North Borough where Selena's house was located.

The Wood family also lived in a patio house, but unlike Klein's place, they had a terrace. They have a small lawn in front which makes them look very elegant.

As they rang the doorbell, Klein, Benson, and Melissa only needed to wait about ten seconds before they could see the star today, Selena Wood.

With her head covered in wine-red hair, the girl hugged Melissa happily.

"I love this dress of yours. It makes you look so pretty."

Standing next to Selena Wood is her father, Mr. Wood, Tingen's senior branch employee at Backlund Bank.

"Welcome, my dear brother. Welcome, our young historian." He deliberately spoke to Benson and Klein in an exaggerated manner.

Young historian ... Why didn't he add the description that I had a conscience? … Klein retorted as he took off his hat and replied with a smile, "Master Wood, you look much more excited and younger than I. imagined."

His flattery style had unknowingly made himself lean towards the Foodaholic Empire.

Benson reached out his hand and shook Wood's hand.

"i know a lot of bank clerks, but they're all equally arrogant and rigid, as if they were the latest machines. None of them are civilized like you."

"If you met me at the bank, you probably wouldn't say that about me." Wood laughed cheerfully.

After making small talk, Selena, who was wearing a new dress, led her siblings in with her leaping steps. Sometimes, she would mention in her usual tone that, "Elizabeth was already here," and at other times, she would suppress her voice by saying, "Melissa, your brothers are more handsome than I imagined."

Hey, my hearing is good. Even though you flatter me. Klein helplessly stared at the two sixteen-year-old girls walking in front of him.

This is not true. Tsk, Miss Selena, how ugly do you think Benson and I are? A bald, gloomy, fat man with a pale expression and lifeless eyes? Klein pinched his glabella while diligently training his Spirit Vision.

Miss Selena Wood is healthy. He was happy and very happy.Mister Wood's lungs were a little troubled. Right, I saw his pipe.Klein turned his gaze to the crowd while in a good mood.

"Elizabeth, Melissa is here." Just then, Selena introduced herself in a quick tone.

A girl wearing a blue lacy dress walked over. She has natural curly brown hair and adorable baby fat.

Klein was stunned when he saw her because he knew the girl.

He had helped her pick out a talisman in the underground market!

Elizabeth greeted Melissa first before looking at Benson and Klein.

He was stunned and his brows furrowed slightly, as if he was thinking of something.

Immediately, Elizabeth smiled and politely greeted them as if nothing had happened.

Klein also pretended not to recognize her. Under Wood's lead, they came to the sofa in the living room where they were introduced to Chris—kakak Selena Wood—and the other guests.

As Klein watched Benson chat with Chris and the other lawyers happily about the topic of their neighbor, Mr. Shaud, he was envious.

I had no such socializing skills .. She picked up a cocktail from a table in the corner of the room as she listened quietly. Sometimes, he would nod and echo with a smile.

It didn't take long before all the guests arrived and the official banquet began.

Due to too many guests being invited, the Wood family dining table could not accommodate everyone. Therefore, the banquet is done in buffet. The waiter serves steak dishes, grilled chicken, fried fish, mashed potatoes, etc and puts them on different tables. The male waiter is responsible for carving the meat, allowing the guests to take what they want.

Klein inevitably clicked his tongue as he looked at the enamel plate and elegant silverware. He felt that Woods was too extravagant as a middle-class family.

Since they are so rich, why did Chris take so many years to prepare for his wedding?" When he thought about what his sister had mentioned earlier, he was confused. "Yes, it is possible to save money to buy these cutlery.which will take them years to buy them. For such a family, they should look respectable!

Amidst her mixed emotions, Klein picked up the plate and walked in front of the dining table. He cut a piece of honey-coated roast.

At that moment, Elizabeth with her adorable baby chubby cheeks came. As she looked at the food, she whispered, "So you are Melissa's brother. Selena really liked the amulet I gave her. She said that she felt healthier when she wore it."

Selena.

It was to be given to a friend who loved mysticism as a birthday gift!

That friend is Selena? Selena likes items related to mysticism? Klein frowned slightly as he smiled politely.

"This may be similar to the placebo effect."

After saying that, he started waiting for her to praise Emperor Roselle.

Elizabeth's reaction was confusion.

"What is a placebo effect?"

"That means it's entirely psychological. Sometimes, we believe that we will change for the better and eventually really get better" Klein said harshly.

"No, he said it was different from the amulet he had bought in the past. It feels different" Elizabeth said.

He tilted his head and glanced at Klein and said curiously, "I never expected Melissa's brother to be an expert in mysticism."

"As you know, I'm studying history, so it's common to deal with similar things." Klein shifted the subject skillfully as he asked, "Are you also studying at the Tingen Technical School?"

"No, Selena and I are Melissa's former schoolmates. Then, he went to technical school. I studied at the nearby Ivos Public School" Elizabeth explained seriously.

A public school is not established and maintained by the government. Rather, it is a school that accepts students from the community. It was the evolution of a good grammar school whose goal was to prepare graduates for university. The school was rather expensive and they would consider the family background of the students. It could even be beyond the reach of a typical middle-class family.

He doesn't talk much. After choosing her food, she returned to Selena's side.

After congratulating the star of the day on a happy birthday, the banquet gradually ended. Klein and Benson are invited to a Texas Hold'em game. The small blind is half a cent, and the big blind is a penny. As for Melissa, Elizabeth, Selena, and their friends, they climbed to the top. It is not known if they are chatting or playing games.

Klein's luck was terrible. He played about twenty rounds, but did not receive a good result at all. All he could do was fold and become a spectator.

When he flipped the tip of his card again, he found Two Hearts and Five Spades.

"Should I try a bluff once?" Klein considered for a moment, but did not manage to muster up the courage. He also resisted the urge to use divination to deceive.

He covers his cards and knocks on the table, indicating that he did not call. Then, he got up and left the table to head for the bathroom.

Roselle is also a person with obsessive-compulsive disorder. He actually found a strange reason to name the Texas style of play.

At that moment, he suddenly stopped when his pupils constricted.

His spiritual perception told him that there were strange fluctuations upstairs!
