Arcanum: Chaos Path

Chapter 92 It's time to move
A Jack Jones quietly shattered.

——Of course, it was performed by Rowling.

After hearing Klein's words, Rowling showed a very professional expression of shock. He stared at him seriously and suddenly asked, "You used high-sequence energy to digest the potion?"

Klein was stunned for a moment after hearing this. Naturally, he didn't know some of the little nuggets about acting and digestion at this moment, but he wasn't stupid. After hearing Rowling's pointed words and thinking about the Joker Potion he had digested in a second, he nodded thoughtfully and said, "Probably."

The gods used him as a chess piece, and he digested the clown potion because he knew his fate as a chess piece. How could this not be considered as using high-sequence energy to digest the potion?

Although this sequence is a bit too high, who would have thought I was only at Sequence Eight... Klein couldn't help but complain in his heart. After seven days of digestion, he could now think about this matter with a calm mind.

"Isn't that cheating?" Luo Lin complained, then showed a concerned expression and asked, "Are you okay?"

"It's okay. In a sense, it can be considered a blessing in disguise." Klein smiled and shook his head. Faced with his friend's pure concern, his heart warmed. He then carefully recounted the key points of digesting the clown potion that he had understood.

He really wanted to help Jack get promoted as soon as possible. This had nothing to do with Lucifer's commission, but because Klein truly regarded Jack as a friend.

"I'm glad you're okay!" Rowling breathed a sigh of relief, then quietly listened to the key points Klein had highlighted. Although these points were of little use to him, the sincere help from a friend was enough to make Rowling feel better.

"Ok, I know what to do next to digest the clown potion." After listening, Rowling made an OK gesture. Because of the efforts of a certain emperor, this is also one of the common gestures in the Northern Continent today.

Luo Lin propped up his chin and said, "Klein, since you are planning to go to Backlund, have you found a place to live there?"

"Uh, no." Klein shook his head honestly. His knowledge of Backlund came only from magazines and some interesting stories shared by Miss Justice. He had never even been there in person, so it was naturally impossible for him to find a place to live in advance. He just flipped through some rental ads in the newspaper and planned to visit Backlund in person after arriving to choose a suitable place.

"How about you stay at my house first?" Rowling suggested enthusiastically. "I'm not living in Backlund most of the time anyway, so the house is empty anyway. I might as well lend it to you."

What Rowling was referring to here was naturally just one of his safe houses in Backlund.

As for why he wanted to lend his house to Klein, it was of course to better grasp Klein's whereabouts. After all, Rowling was very busy and didn't have time to keep an eye on Klein. Backlund was so big that he didn't want him to slip into his blind spot. It would be better to guide Klein to a fixed residence.

"Isn't this a bit awkward?" Klein felt a little excited and a little embarrassed.

After all, he was really poor now. Apart from the money he left for Benson and Melissa, he couldn't even get 100 pounds together.

"Why are you being so polite to me? I don't know you. You're such a poor bastard. If I tell you to rent a house in Backlund, I'm afraid you'll end up living in the slums." Rowling shook his head and, without waiting for Klein's reply, ran upstairs, took out a bunch of keys, stuffed them into Klein's hands, and then gave him an address.

"It's a good thing you live there, and you can help me clean it, so I don't have to hire someone to clean it regularly." "Okay, thank you, teacher." Since it came to this, Klein naturally couldn't refuse. He nodded and put the key away.

Klein then thought of something and asked curiously, "Jack, why did you decide to become a teacher in Tingen?"

"Of course it's because of divination..." Luo Lin said with a matter-of-fact expression, "I suddenly had a whim and divined where my opportunity would be. The result showed Tingen, so I came to Tingen to be a teacher."

At this point, Luo Lin revealed a puzzled expression and said, "Now that I think about it, the opportunity I divined couldn't possibly refer to Mr. Azik and you, Klein? Mr. Azik was once a big shot, and you're so mysterious, you obviously have a secret... Could it be that the divination result refers to you?"

Klein was silent for a few seconds, feeling that this was possible.

Whether it was the kindness from the Archon of Death, or meeting him as a fellow countryman, and then joining the Tarot Club, for Jack, it was probably an opportunity?
"If the opportunity really refers to you, you'd all have to leave Tingen by now..." Rowling pinched his chin and thought for a moment before suddenly saying, "Klein, why don't I go to Backlund too? After you leave, I won't have many acquaintances here anyway, and it'll be boring to stay here."

He had been laying the groundwork for so long today just to allow Jack Vest to move to Backlund in a natural and logical manner.

After all, Tingen is no longer worthwhile for Rowling to continue staying here.

……

Although Klein was somewhat surprised that Jack was also planning to resign and go to Backlund, it wasn't a bad thing after all, so Klein naturally had no objection.

After saying goodbye to Jack, Klein returned home and reunited with Benson and Melissa. After having a delicious dinner together, Klein informed them of his plan to go to Backlund.

Of course, Klein didn't reveal anything about his Beyonder domain. He only said that the company's top management was impressed by his abilities and wanted to transfer him to the headquarters in Backlund. This matched up perfectly with Nighthawk's previous lie.

"So I'm afraid I'll have to move to Backlund later." Klein said this, looking at the silent Benson and Melissa, and quickly added: "Of course, I will remember to write to you and come back to see you often when I have time."

The hut remained silent, causing Klein's uneasiness to reach its peak. At this moment, Benson, who had been keeping a straight face, finally smiled. He reached out and patted his brother's shoulder, saying,

"Klein, you're truly amazing! Don't look so miserable. I know you're reluctant to leave us, and we're reluctant to leave you, but I don't want our presence to hinder your progress."

Melissa frowned and said, "Is your company really reliable? I heard..." She worriedly cited some examples of fraud. After all, Klein had only been employed for two months and had received a series of promotions and salary increases. Now, his boss had even taken him to the head office. It all sounded a little unreal.

Although she is the youngest, Melissa, who has the mentality of an old mother, is really worried that her brother will be cheated.
