"So you're a guest from beyond? A god?"

"Besides stealth, do you know a lot of other magic? Like being able to fly?"

"And what does the Loom mean by 'each of us gets what we need'?"

...

Wesley, uncharacteristically, was not pestering Fox but instead crowded around Morin, asking question after question.

He couldn't help it; compared to women, the term "guest from beyond" resonated much more deeply with a man's heart.

Not to mention Wesley, Morin noticed that everyone else had also pricked up their ears, listening to Morin, afraid of missing any major news.

This was a guest from beyond!

A Temple Knight, personally endorsed by fate, tasked with bringing order back to the world!

After leaving the Loom, everyone's attitude towards

Morin had noticeably changed.

"I think you guys don't have to be so excited," Morin said while analyzing the meaning of the Loom's words.

"I am indeed a guest from beyond, but just as the Loom said, I'm only here to bring order back to this world, nothing more. So there's no need to be excited. My purpose, my job, is no different from what I told you in the beginning."

"But... he's a guest from beyond!" Wesley was still very

excited.

"Alright, don't disturb the master's thoughts," Fox said, walking over and dragging Wesley away. "Come on, tell me about the Temple Knights..."

Fox had already placed Morin in a very high position, which was evident from her change in address to Master.

Furthermore, Fox was already considering joining the Temple Knights. Even if Morin didn't want her, she would probably try to join anyway.

"The term 'assassin' still exists, but their name is dead."

"They no longer deserve the guidance of fate."

Fox naturally understood the meaning of these words.

She knew that fate was angry about what the assassins

had done and had abandoned them, choosing to have Morin, the guest from beyond and Temple Knight, bring order back to the world.

This was fate's new guidance!

So, it was only natural for Fox to want to join the Temple Knights, to seek her own redemption and follow the guidance of fate.

Morin, however, didn't pay much attention to that.

For him, the most important thing right now was the

information contained in the Loom's words.

"A guest from beyond... it knows I'm from beyond... Is the

system that weak? Looks like I'll have to be a little more cautious in the future."

"Each of us gets what we need... it wants order, and I want experience... why does it know even that?"

This was the most perplexing point for Morin.

Why did the Loom know such a private matter?

Was the system really as weak as he had guessed, so much so that it could be seen through with just one glance?

If so, it would be too incompatible with its function.

Morin was very confused, but he wasn't overly cautious.

If this so-called fate had the ability to deal with him and wanted to, it wouldn't have told him this; it would have just acted.

A thing that could be used by assassins for so many years... one could imagine that it was all talk and no action, with almost zero practical combat ability.

Morin thought for a moment, then set the question aside.

He wasn't going to waste his brain power guessing a problem with insufficient information.

"I'm going to see New York Governor Anderson. I reached an agreement with him before, and now it's time to fulfill it."

Morin looked at Wick. "Wick, you go to the New York Continental Hotel and contact Mr. Winston. I have some things I'd like to discuss with him."

"As for the rest of you," Morin looked at Carlos and the others. "It's up to you to figure out how to inform the assassins about this and get them to join the Temple Knights."

"Everyone, let's get to work!"

...

That night.

Anderson was in his study, with the door and windows open, observing the cross in his hand, feeling a bit excited.

The Fraternity of Assassins had been wiped out!

He had received the news around noon.

So, now, Anderson was in his study, waiting for Morin's arrival.

He knew that after fulfilling his promise, Morin would surely come to see him!

At the same time, he was also thinking about what kind of conditions Morin would propose and what his own bottom line should be.

After achieving the feat of wiping out the Fraternity of Assassins, Morin had more than earned the right to cooperate with Anderson.

The Fraternity of Assassins was, after all, a top-tier

power in the underground world.

And it was gone in just one morning?

One could imagine that the Temple Knights' power was strong, and not just strong, but to a baffling degree!

Such a force, and an enemy of his enemy, which made them natural allies if not now, then when?

Just as Anderson's mind was starting to draft the terms of a collaboration, he blinked and found a man had appeared on the sofa in the study.

Anderson, as a matter of course, went to close the study door, the windows, and pulled the curtains shut.

"You've arrived."

"I have."

"Then... shall we talk about our collaboration?"

"Why didn't you follow the script and say, 'You shouldn't have'?" Morin complained inwardly, but he nodded. "It seems you already know."

"Yes, with that much commotion, of course I know. Didn't you notice that not a single police officer went to investigate?"

Anderson said, "Given your great feat, we have the basis for a collaboration. So... what kind of help do you need from us?"

"The High Table has been operating in the underground world for many years, and its network covers the entire globe. Different affiliated organizations, different responsibilities, different people... with the government's laissez-faire attitude, they've grown and become deeply rooted."

Morin said, "This is because you have adopted a strategy of defensive restrictions. I know this strategy cannot be changed in a short period of time because you're afraid of retaliation from the High Table's assassins. So, I only need one thing."

"Tell me," Anderson nodded.

"The Temple Knights are to be given the same treatment," Morin said. "I don't need you to send people, as that goes against my principles anyway. I just need you to ignore the conflict between the Temple Knights and the Continental Hotel."

"...That's all?" Anderson was a little stunned.

He had been prepared for Morin to make an exorbitant demand!

"This is the bare minimum for our collaboration. We're fighting on the front lines, so we can't have you stabbing us in the back. With the High Table's threats, I can't trust your people at all without a guarantee."

"As for other things, what can you give us? Money,

people, or power?"

Morin's three rhetorical questions left Anderson speechless.

The threat from the High Table's assassins was too great. Anderson knew that even just guaranteeing they would ignore the conflict would require a long period of debate.

"I don't need anything else; I have my own ways of getting it," Morin said, looking directly at Anderson.

"I need you to give me more authority to report to your superior, Mr. Anderson. This matter is no longer something you can handle alone. I need a guarantee from someone with a higher position."
