Klaus studied Luna's reactions for a while before continuing his questions. At first, he thought she was part of the Dark Order, but it turned out she was only a proxy for Assassin Number 7—her mother. This meant she wasn't useful if his goal was to infiltrate the organization at a deeper level.He needed someone with more influence, but since she didn't have strong ties to the Dark Order, she was practically useless to him—yet, at the moment, she was still his best asset.Klaus, being only a Level 8 Master, had no business getting tangled with Sovereigns or even Transcendents. From what he'd learned from Cynthia Ross, Assassins Number 49 through 11 were all Great Sages, just like Luna.He knew he couldn't underestimate them. Luna had nearly killed him back in the Demon's Abode, and he understood that if there had been more than one of her, he would've been injured or worse, died.He thanked his lucky stars that the twins didn't come after her.

Of course, he didn't want to risk drawing anyone's attention; that would ruin his whole outing, so he kept a low profile and refrained from entering places that required ID.Hearing his explanation, Miriam raised an eyebrow. She knew Klaus didn't like going out, as he usually spent time with his mom, training, or hunting. It was rare to see him outside.Having now pack

"You woke up early," Miriam said, looking at Klaus sitting on the bed. Klaus smiled back at her. He had woken up quite early and decided to chat with the senior. Since he couldn't use the Bead for now, as it was suspended in the golden energy he had yet to absorb, he could only ask about the things he wanted to know.Having memories of one's past is indeed valuable, and Klaus was eager to learn more. The senior answered his questions to the best of his ability, though the karma involved in understanding some of these things was too much for Klaus to bear at the moment."So, what are your plans now that we won't be going back to Ross City for a few more days?" Miriam asked her tone hinting that she was teasing him about his plans to train with Lulu."You can always go back first if you want," Klaus replied, refusing to give her the satisfaction."Get dressed. I want to see how much you can learn as a Spirit Master," Miriam said, pushing him off the bed. Klaus just smiled and got up to
