Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

"I didn't expect there to still be followers of the Eternal Blazing Sun in Becland, considering the Storm Lord and the Eternal Blazing Sun are hostile to each other."

After Yu had been purified by a follower of the Eternal Blazing Sun using burning radiance and returned, Tao Yu appeared somewhat surprised.

"Indeed, the followers of the Eternal Blazing Sun are most numerous in Intis, and considered quite rare in our region."

Klein nodded in agreement, but looking at Tao Yu carrying a small package filled with extraordinary materials and various books, his expression became somewhat subtle.

He had spent a thousand or two Gold Pounds overnight.

If it had been for purchasing formulas or the like, it would have been acceptable, given their expensive prices.

But these were just some ordinary extraordinary materials, which was rather extravagant.

I might have to drop by his place later if I run out of casting materials... I suppose he would give me some...

Klein couldn't help but feel a bit self-mocking.

"I'm preparing to make some amulets capable of inducing nightmares. You were once with the Church of the Night, right? Teach me the appropriate way to do it."

Having returned to Minsk Street, Tao Yu said to Klein.

"You really are a devil. Don't go carving them haphazardly. Wait for me to come over tomorrow."

Klein sighed but didn't refuse.

The other party was using this method to process his own Magic Potion, which actually was a decent choice.

"Alright, see you tomorrow."

Not long after Tao Yu bid farewell to Klein with his package on his back and hadn't yet reached his own doorstep, he suddenly heard a commotion.

The noise was coming from Klein's house.

This caused Tao Yu to frown slightly, and with the invisibility ability brought by the Witch, he lightly tapped into his own Shadow Force, slipping quickly through the window into Klein's house.

Then he saw that the fight inside had already concluded, with Klein standing beside a body, panting lightly.

The victor must have been decided in just a few moves.

"Not bad at all, managing to deal with an ambush."

As an expert in this field, Tao Yu glanced over the scene and was able to make a fairly accurate judgement.

The ambusher must have been a low-sequence combatant, who had also set a simple trap.

However, Klein was of the Fortune Teller Sequence, with high spirituality, and had detected it early, subsequently managing to counter-attack.

"Must be Sequence 9. If it were Sequence 8, you might have been in trouble."

Tao Yu delivered his assessment.

"Yes, I'll do a bit of spirit contact first. While I'm at it, lend me some materials you've bought... There should be some inside..."

Klein mentioned casually.

Of course, Tao Yu didn't mind at all; afterwards, he observed Klein performing the 'Dream Spirit Contact' ritual on the side.

Having a foundation in magic combined with enlightenment, he just needed to watch Klein perform it once to grasp the gist of it.

After waiting for a while, he saw Klein open his eyes with a somewhat unpleasant expression.

"This is troublesome, it's even implicated the Ambassador of Intis..."

"The Ambassador? Good grief, you're quite skilled at causing trouble. I think it's best to directly report to the authorities. I'm currently an informant for the Church of the Night; need my help?"

Tao Yu's words made Klein hesitate for a moment, and then he shook his head.

"I'm not yet comfortable exposing myself before the Church of the Night; I'll find another way through official channels. The Kingdom of Loen has its own institutions for extraordinaries; I might need your help to get a lawyer to bail me out later..."

"Fine, then I'll take my leave. You better stage the scene a bit more."

Seeing that Klein had his own plans, Tao Yu didn't pry any further and went straight home.

As for Klein, he then disguised the scene a bit...

...

It wasn't long before Tao Yu heard the voice of Klein bringing detectives over. It looked like the scene had been staged, saying that someone had broken in to rob, but ended up being killed by him in self-defense.

"He's probably going to actively engage the official extraordinaries. I wonder if he'll suffer for it."

The matter was complicated by involvement with some ambassador; this guy might have a bit of trouble.

Hmm, time to rest, we'll deal with the rest tomorrow. Rushing things tonight seems a bit abrupt...

...

The next day, Tao Yu summoned a neighbor lawyer to bail Klein out of the station.

"Thanks. Otherwise, I might have had to stay there a bit longer." Stay connected via My Virtual Library Empire

Klein felt a bit embarrassed; the matter had turned out to be trickier than he had expected, and the other side had even used the abilities of extraordinaries to interrogate him.

Fortunately, the gray fog had acted as a shield; otherwise, the trouble could have been much worse.

"Don't mention it; this is our neighbor, Lawyer Jurgen."

Tao Yu said casually, but inwardly he was somewhat speechless about the extraordinary institutions in Loen – after all, the kid was a victim. Was it really necessary to search him?

He still preferred the ways of the current world. Although a bit like survival of the fittest, cruel, and not exactly humane, failing to protect the weak, they were still easy to adapt to, perhaps not quite suitable for peaceful times.

"Hello."

Klein greeted the neighbor with a smile.

"Hello. A detective might need a long-term lawyer; perhaps there will be an opportunity for us to cooperate in the future."

Jurgen looked meticulous, and his ability to bail out Klein so quickly showed his competence.

Following Jurgen's departure, Tao Yu also started asking about the specific situation.

"It seems they have confirmed the ambassador's identity, but I think getting involved in this kind of thing is a bit troublesome,"

Klein had a bit of a headache.

"Indeed, it's troublesome. Actually, I think the best way is to get rid of the source of the trouble to avoid further complications."

Tao Yu shared his own summed-up experience.

If they have already sent someone to assassinate you, what's there to be polite about?

This once again left Klein somewhat at a loss for words, but then he began to hesitate again.

It seemed there was indeed only the thief who frets day and night.

Even if I hire bodyguards, how long can I afford them? How much money do I have...

Even if my fellow countryman is a Sequence 7, and I shamelessly move in with him, I probably can't handle all the problems.

Moreover, after knowing Tao Yu had taken a Witch Potion, Klein understood it would definitely be inconvenient to live together, as it would embarrass and trouble the other party.

I still need to think of more solutions myself...

"Ah, I'll think of something,"

"How about I help you put out a commission to take him out directly?"

Tao Yu suggested a bad idea.

Whether it's my beautiful lady online or the Tarot Club, and even Mr. A's gatherings, I could try them.

After all, the Aurora Society loves doing this kind of thing, and such commissions can be made.

"That doesn't seem quite right."

Klein was a little tempted, but the thought of the cost to assassinate an ambassador made his face fall.

"I don't have the money... "

"I do. Don't worry, I'll go ask around. If no one accepts, then so be it. If it can be solved with money, then it's not a problem..."

If Klein asked Tao Yu to go himself, Tao Yu would not take the risk lightly without having clear information, even if he was confident.

After all, this involved an ambassador, who was different from the shady Mr. A who could use his trump cards without concern if an assassination attempt occurred.

But to Tao Yu, if it's only about spending money, that's just a number in his eyes...

No sooner thought than done, although today wasn't the day for Mr. A's gathering, Tao Yu still took the hesitant Klein to knock on the door.

Tao Yu had a good sense of Mr. A's strength, and since Mr. A preferred to stay out of the spotlight, tearing off the facade if necessary wouldn't be a big issue for Tao Yu; such was his confidence.

This place was ultimately one of the Aurora Society's strongholds. Even though it wasn't the appropriate time, they still opened the door.

"I want to see Mr. A. I have a task to commission."

Tao Yu said to the butler while also considering his progress on digesting the Instigator role.

I'll use Gold Pounds to incite Mr. A to kill the ambassador. That should be substantial enough, right?

Klein didn't know where Tao Yu got such confidence, but judging from his performance from the start, this fellow countryman was indeed different from himself.

He came along mainly out of concern for potential danger, even taking the precaution of divining before entering, which indicated there was some risk, but not great. Perhaps he could also serve as a backup... right?

Guided by the butler, the two of them arrived at a room, and although Tao Yu wore a hood that covered his face,

Mr. A seemed to remember him, appearing quite surprised,

"What's the matter, having second thoughts?"

At the side, Klein didn't know what Mr. A meant by second thoughts and just earnestly kept his spiritual alertness up at the side, much like a bodyguard.

"I've come to commission an assassination, the Ambassador of Intis."

Tao Yu went straight to the point while also beginning to activate Incite.

Considering the difference between their Sequences, even though Tao Yu's profession, once Deified, mainly added bonuses when he's out of this world, combined with gradually digesting part of his own foundation, discreetly doing the job wasn't much of an issue anymore.

And Mr. A himself didn't expect this sudden arrival to be so bold, coming right out with such heavy news.

The other party is from the Witch Sect.

The Witch Sect wants to assassinate the Ambassador of Intis?

Why?

The Witch Sect already has a not inconsiderable influence in Intis; what are they plotting?

However, for the Aurora Society, they've always carried out missions without overthinking, so Mr. A, unable to figure it out, didn't bother anymore, only pondering what he would gain from assassinating the Ambassador of Intis.

Provoking opposition between two nations, this truly suits our Aurora Society's style.

"How much are you willing to pay?"

Just like that, agreed?

Klein's eyes widened, an assassination of an ambassador from a powerful country like Intis, and without even a question?

Just straight to the price, could it be a sham?

Could it be that he intends to scam you by finding out how much money you have and then dealing with you?

Klein discreetly flicked a coin for a divination in secret.

He found that the other party was speaking the truth!

Is it that casual?

Good heavens, so this is the Aurora Society...
