Mystery: My Encounters with the Celestial God

Chapter 68 Gathering of the Extraordinary

Twenty minutes later.

"Dali, it's me."

"Dunne, you don't need to say anything more. I understand what you mean. Do you want to tie my hands and throw me on the bed?"

"No, no, I didn't, Daisy, don't overthink it!"

As the inner conflicts of the two runaways are resolved, their relationship gradually becomes more complex.

They both knew each other liked them, but neither was too shy to confess. However, it was better to know in one's heart than to be confused.

In short, this unexpected openness gave both parties a clearer understanding of the situation, at least preventing them from running away as they had in the past.

"Dunne, let's go out. You should thank Ron properly."

"I feel like this child knows everything, but is just pretending to be confused."

As soon as Daly finished speaking, Dunn Smith nodded and then got up and opened the door to the lounge.

The two exchanged another glance, understanding each other's meaning. They shifted positions, pretending nothing had happened, and walked one after the other towards the reception hall.

They need to find Ron and complete the psychic ritual that was left unfinished.

But as soon as they arrived at the reception hall, Dunn Smith, who was walking in front, stopped abruptly.

The smug smile on his face froze instantly.

He saw all the free night watchmen, including the clerical Mrs. Orianna, sitting in the hall, their eyes fixed on him and Daly Simone behind him.

Those gazes, filled with curiosity, satisfaction, gossip, excitement, and amusement, swept over him.

Dunn Smith's last shred of hope crumbled with each sweep of those gazes.

At that moment, the old captain realized a very serious problem: he seemed to have let Ron out too soon.

The gray eyes instantly spotted Ron, who was watching the amusement from the corner, and felt that the kid needed to be disciplined.

"Captain, you and Ms. Daly..."

Anyway, congratulations.

In the quiet and strange atmosphere, honest Frye, without hesitation, was the first to offer his blessings to Dunn and Daly.

His words were like a switch that flipped something, causing the remaining night watchmen to begin offering various kinds of blessings.

"No, you've misunderstood."

"Captain, don't say anymore, we understand!"

Before Dunn could finish his sophistry, the remaining night watchmen gave him knowing looks and quickly dispersed back to their posts, leaving Dunn speechless.

Over the next two days, necromancer Daly performed a channeling on Ron, but Ron's feigned ignorance led to the discovery of no clues.

As for her relationship with Dunn, it seems to have returned to what it was before, with no significant changes in appearance.

Finally, it was time for Daly Simone to leave. Her original mission was to go to Enmat Port to handle some matters, and her visit to Tingen was just a side trip. Now she could not stay any longer.

On this day, the night watch captain lit his pipe for the first time in the office, revealing the old captain's melancholy and complicated feelings.

Nighttime on Narcissus Street.

Inside a guest room at Moretti's house.

Ron had been quite bored these past two days, because the excitement he got from finding fun didn't last long and quickly dissipated.

This made the blond boy roll around on the bed, bored and restless, whimpering "I want, I want."

As he was rolling, Ron suddenly felt a fluctuation in the space beside him, and then a green figure appeared in mid-air.

The figure, about the size of a thumb, with one eye and two tentacles on its head, was Ron's first subordinate, the spirit creature Habakak.

As soon as Habakak appeared, his large, single eye spotted the Time Ruler who was rolling around.

As their eyes met, the poor spirit creature felt a terrifying aura that made it hard for it to breathe.

It plopped down on the ground, then quickly got up and pulled an envelope many times larger than itself from its tiny, illusory pocket.

With a "pop," Habakak forcefully pulled the envelope out.

A fawning smile appeared on its small face.

"The great ruler of time and space, the ultimate point of all things returning to oneness, the all-knowing and all-seeing infinite wisdom, someone has summoned me to deliver a letter to you."

As the respectful and obsequious words fell, the letter seemed to be dragged by an invisible hand, automatically floating to Ron's front.

A letter? From Hazel?

Thoughts flashed through his mind, and the blond boy raised his hand, opened the envelope, took out the letter, and looked at its contents.

Dear Mr. Ron, it is as if we are meeting in person.

It's been half a month since we last met. I wonder if you've forgotten your good friend?

In the past two weeks, I have experienced and changed a lot. I started to attend the endless parties and salons in Backlund, as my parents suggested. Although it was tiring, it also allowed me to make many different friends in Backlund.

This is a life I've never experienced before.

Of course, those friends are certainly not as precious as you, Mr. Ron.

I must mention here that among my friends are some extraordinary individuals.

However, I hid it very well, and they didn't discover that I was also an extraordinary being!

Mr. Ron, I must extend an invitation to you at this point.

Among the extraordinary individuals I know, there is one who can take us to a secret underground gathering. I wonder if I would have the honor of inviting Mr. Ron?

I've already spoken to my friends, and they've agreed to my request. If Mr. Ron would like to come, please meet me at our usual spot tomorrow evening at 7 p.m. I'll take you to a dance, and we'll depart from there.

Looking forward to your reply.

Your best friend, Heyr Macht.

……

After reading Heyr's lengthy letter, the blond boy adjusted his monocle.

It's like his wish came true! Just a few days ago, he was thinking about finding more channels and attending some secret gatherings to find information about the scattered power within himself, and today he received some good news.

This made him sigh, "Good people really do get good rewards," which caused the two wills within him to laugh.

It was unclear whether these two wills were mocking Ron's viewpoint or the blond boy's shamelessness.

However, Ron always felt it should be the latter.

The blond boy immediately retorted in his mind, then pushed up his monocle. He wanted to pick up some stationery to reply, but Ron realized that he didn't have any stationery or pen at all.

"The Great Ruler of Time and Space."

The obsequious voice rang out again, and Habakak pulled a fine fountain pen and a stack of exquisitely beautiful letter paper with gold patterns from his trouser pocket.

The pen and letter floated silently in front of Ron, causing the great ruler of time and space to nod in satisfaction.

"Very good, Habakak, I knew I hadn't misjudged you."

"It is my pleasure to serve you!"

Hearing the praise from the boss for the first time, which he had inexplicably recognized, Habakak's heart gradually calmed down and he was no longer afraid.

God knows how bewildered it was when it was inexplicably summoned.

When did I become a messenger?

After hearing the human utter the name Ron Sothos, he suddenly felt bound by a contract and was forced to take up his post.

Actually, it was somewhat reluctant at first, but the consequences of that refusal were already clearly written in the contract it had been burdened with at some unknown time.

Those are unfair terms that it absolutely cannot afford.

Oh well, that's life. All I can do is lie down and enjoy it.
