Chapter 10: Chapter 10: "Ah, I Found You!" (Edited)
As Klein and Leonard return to the Blackthorn Security Company to report Lanevus's letter to Captain Dunn, a white feather pen continues writing in a notebook inside a house just a street away:
"Megose, under a mysterious call, came to No. 36 Zouteland Street and entered the Blackthorn Security Company. The baby in her womb was at a critical stage, preventing her from controlling her impulses. Which is again, a very reasonable and logical development."
...
"Where is this..."
At the entrance of the Blackthorn Security Company, the melancholic and serene Megose stroked her belly, which appeared to be seven or eight months pregnant despite being only a few months along. Her green eyes looked ahead, slightly dazed.
She didn't know why she suddenly felt compelled to come to Zouteland Street or why she wanted to visit this security company. She just acted on the sudden urge.
"Megose?"
Suddenly, Megose heard someone calling her name, bringing her back to reality. She realized there were now two people standing in front of her.
One was the divination expert she had met before, and the other was a very handsome man.
Instinctively, Megose stroked her belly again, noticing the two men standing frozen in place, silent for about ten seconds.
However, Megose didn't care. Her spirit, heavily eroded by the unborn evil god's child, left little in the world that mattered to her besides her baby.
Opposite Megose, Klein, who had realized what was inside her, finally managed to shake off the fear brought by his spiritual intuition.
Klein instantly understood what the "bomb" Lanevus mentioned in the letter really was.
A primal fear enveloped Klein, making him instinctively reject this terrifying reality.
But then, Klein gripped the "Flaring Sun Charm" and the "Azik's Copper Whistle" in his pocket, using these high-level items to enter a semi-cogitative state, forcing himself to calm down and abandon any wishful thinking.
He glanced at Leonard, who had also come to his senses, and the two of them tacitly led Megose inside. While Leonard comforted her, Klein quickly reached Dunn's office. Without knocking, he opened the door and walked in, closing it behind him. He looked at Dunn and said in a grave tone:
"Captain, something big has happened!"
...
"Dunn made detailed and correct arrangements, but he made one mistake..."
"Unfortunately..."
"Azik is in Backlund, and not being a 'Planeswalker,' it's hard for him to return in such a short time..."
The white feather pen flew across the notebook, clearly preparing to bring Tingen's story to a close in one go.
But just then, Ince Zangwill, who seemed to already see himself seizing victory, suddenly heard a song.
"Looking for, looking for, looking for a friend, found a good friend."
"Salute~ Shake hands~"
"Ah, I found you!"
It sounded like someone was humming a nursery rhyme. But as the song played, Ince suddenly found his surroundings changed. In an instant, he seemed to move from indoors to a dense forest, his feet on moist soil and small mounds, along with tombstones.
In front of one tombstone, a young man with short black hair and ashen-gray eyes materialized from transparency to solidity, like a ghost returning to the human world.
—Mystical Re-enactment: Hide and Seek.
Lynn had spent the night creating this new magic, the story's core being a seemingly earthly but actually quite eerie game of hide and seek.
The effect of this ability was simple: finding someone.
Although Lynn, lacking anything related to Ince and being interfered with by 0-08's nature, couldn't use this magic to locate him from afar, with such close proximity, despite taking some time, Lynn successfully used the magic hide and seek to find his "good friend."
And now, it was time for a beating.
With that thought, Lynn smiled slightly at Ince and said:
"Hello, Ince Zangwill."
"I really like the pen you're holding, so could you please part with it?"
As Lynn spoke, scorching flames engulfed Ince Zangwill's position, the high temperature causing the air to tremble.
"Of course, if you disagree, then you'll have to die."
...
Inside the Blackthorn Security Company, after urgently evacuating the clerical staff and retrieving equipment from Chanis Gate, Klein and his companions engaged in a fierce battle with Megose and the unborn evil god's child in her womb.
Megose no longer appeared as the melancholic and serene beauty she had been. Her golden hair had fallen out, and her skin secreted a liquid with a blasphemous odor, clearly mutated.
If not for the three's unique advantages—one with a powerful grandpa as a backup, another wielding a Flaring Sun Charm capable of countering evil, and Klein holding Saint Selina's ashes—they would have been wiped out by Megose.
Even so, Klein and his companions had a near-death experience within seconds. Klein was nearly split in half by Megose, who had entered her "Second Form: Bone Blade." Though he narrowly escaped with his life, he was gravely injured.
This wasn't the end. Just after suffering from Klein's Flaring Sun Charm, Megose teleported in front of him, raising a bone knife to finish him off.
Leonard, his heart tightening, was about to use "Evil Word" to control Megose, but then a golden-red flame spear silently appeared, its scorching aura brushing past Klein's hair, piercing Megose unexpectedly.
She was sent flying, and the red-hot explosion filled Klein's vision. The flame spear had detonated inside Megose, severely injuring her and burning the evil god's child inside her.
"Sorry, I'm a bit late."
A gentle voice sounded in Klein's ear. He turned to see a stranger beside him, a young man in a beige coat with black hair and ashen-gray eyes, as handsome as Leonard.
The young man's hand lightly pressed on Klein's wound, and with a warm white glow, Klein saw his chest wound healing.

The lyrics "Looking for, looking for, looking for a friend, found a good friend."
"Salute~ Shake hands~"
"Ah, I found you!" are from a Chinese children's song called "找朋友" (Zhǎo Péngyǒu), which means "Looking for a Friend" in English.
