"'Mystery Pryer' Sequence 3 is called 'Clairvoyant'...." A memory from Roselle's diary suddenly surfaced in Klein's mind, connecting it to how high-level Beyonders of the Fate Pathway could notice the peculiarities about him.
He had initially thought Bernadette's special attitude towards him stemmed from Duke Aaron, but he now began to suspect whether this Pirate King had detected the aura of Sefirah Castle when she advanced to Angel outside Backlund.
At this thought, his expression stiffened, and he recalled Duke Aaron, who had been paying attention to him and even secretly providing help since his bizarre rebirth in Tingen, as well as that hidden existence who called himself the "Lord of Order."
Pinching his glabella, Klein suppressed the thoughts in his mind. He had a premonition that these questions would become clear once he advanced to Demigod, or at least he would know part of the truth.
He consciously extinguished Cattleya's prayer light spot, thought for a moment, and then took out a gold coin from the pile of sundries, tossing it casually.
After divining to confirm that Cattleya joining the Tarot Club would not lead to negative developments, Klein took a deep breath. He was quite confident in Sefirah Castle's divination ability, but he didn't plan to forcefully intervene in front of Bernadette.
He glanced at the dim but not vanished crimson star symbolizing Cattleya, shook his head, and then looked towards an inconspicuous light spot in the corner.
With Spirit Vision, Klein quickly saw his provisional servant, "Blazing" Danitz, whose bounty had reached 5,000 pounds. The fellow was completely drunk, sprawled on a beach somewhere, with the Golden Dream anchored not far away.
Klein raised an eyebrow, beginning to determine the corresponding Spirit World coordinate here, when he suddenly seemed to sense an anomaly. He immediately elevated his perspective, causing the Golden Dream to continuously Magnify within the prayer screen.
On the deck, which was inscribed with numerous complex patterns, "Vice Admiral Iceberg" Edwina Edwards stood opposite an old man dressed in a plain white robe with brass-colored threads.
As a former Nighthawk, Klein, who had a good understanding of the major Orthodox Churches, immediately recognized the old man's attire as the High Archbishop's robe of the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom.
"Indeed, those who can become Pirate admirals are secretly supported by various Churches or hidden forces."
Due to the limitations of his own level on true sight, Klein could not hear what the two parties were discussing. After memorizing the face of the old man, who was likely a High Archbishop, he was about to use lip-reading to aid in interpretation when the entire prayer screen began to flicker uncontrollably.
An illusory high Tower abruptly occupied his entire vision. Each of its layers seemed to be composed of thick books, and brass-colored Shimmer quickly moved across each book, outlining brass-colored eyes.
The moment his gaze met those brass-colored pupils, the entire Sefirah Castle began to tremble. A moment later, Klein stood up in the half-collapsed palace, pinching his glabella and leaning against the head of the bronze long table with practiced ease. As his thoughts turned, everything returned to normal.
Unlike his previous discomfiture when facing Eternal Blazing Sun, with the blessing of the "Door" Blasphemy Slate, before his consciousness reached its limit, Klein deciphered two Beyonder formulas and the method for crafting a high-level charm called "Eye of Cognition" from that terrifying illusory White Tower.
"Sequence 4 'Prophet,' Sequence 3 'Cognizer'....."
Softly muttering these two names, Klein's expression gradually became a little strange. He hesitated whether to divine to confirm a certain guess in his heart, but then fell silent, thinking of the foreseeable backlash.

Backlund, Earl Hall's Residence.
Led by a maid to a loft, Xio used her "Sheriff" instincts to scan her surroundings, exchanged glances with Fors beside her, and looked at the maid who brought them with an inquiring gaze.
"Miss Audrey asked me to arrange you two here first. She will come after the dinner party ends."
The maid leading the way made a Crimson Moon gesture on her chest and softly explained with a gentle voice.
Rubbing her constantly protesting stomach, Fors coughed lightly and asked about the matter she cared about most:
"Can you provide us with dinner first? Hmm, if we could have a glass of Sonia Blood Wine, it would be even more perfect, or…."
Before she could finish her sentence, she was already dragged into the loft by an expressionless Xio. Fors, who had initially looked regretful, suddenly stiffened and subconsciously looked at her wrist.
There was a silver bracelet on it, and the only two remaining rough, dark green stones on it were glowing.
"Abraham?"
Perhaps it was an Astrologer's intuition, Fors subconsciously uttered this ancient surname.
"Very keen intuition. Hmm, no Abraham bloodline. It seems that Robero and Aulisa chose you then."
A distorted space shrouded in shadows emerged. A steady middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses and a scholarly demeanor slowly walked out of a transparent vortex.
"Madam Aulisa…" After so long, hearing the name of the person who changed her destiny again, Fors's expression became a little dazed, but she immediately realized something and widened her eyes to look at the person opposite her.
The middle-aged man smiled and pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses. The pointer of the compass-shaped Mystical Item in his hand slowly turned, pointing towards Fors:
"My name is Victor Abraham, and I am the current patriarch of the Abraham family. Backlund is my last stop on the Northern Continent."
"All Abraham descendants and related individuals have been found, and the task assigned by His Grace can be considered partly completed."
As he was speaking, a youthful, delicate, and gentle face emerged from the transparent vortex behind him. It was Aaron's younger sister, Avonie Weil.
Her clear blue eyes blinked, curiously sizing up Fors and Xio opposite her. Her golden hair was simply tied up with a dark blue diamond hair ornament, and she held a large, pure white cat in her arms.
Victor, meanwhile, turned his head to look at the door, opening a "Door" in the barrier that originally enveloped the villa. Audrey, dressed in a plain white dress, walked in with Susie.
Avonie's eyes lit up. Ignoring the somewhat protesting Evelina in her arms, she hopped over to Audrey's side, looked up, and called out in a clear voice:
"Hello, Sister-in-law!"
Audrey's cheeks flushed slightly at such a direct address. She rubbed Avonie's head and softly called out to Susie.
Susie, who was sprawled on the ground, staring at Evelina who had broken free from Avonie's embrace, immediately sat up, revealing a small leather pouch tied within her long, thick golden fur.
