Steampunk Era: Mad Abield

For a long time, Malin always felt that Fate had been quite generous to him. Although he had to face that life-threatening job every day, as long as he had the lovely Leopard Girl cooking delicious food for him daily, and as long as there was meat to eat and cats to stroke, life wasn't too unbearable. Working a bit harder and facing some difficulties on the job weren't really an issue for a man. Moreover, being able to live two lives meant one shouldn't have too high demands, right, Mr. Different-Kind? Having said that, and without waiting for an answer, the young man snapped his fingers, and the white flame on his fingertip lit the tobacco in his other hand, then he flicked it towards the non-human entity on the stake. Welcome to Abield, to witness the last splendor of the steampunk era. And the madness.

Section 272: Storm (Part 1)

"Malin! I have a big plan!"

Before going to the Church of Justice, Malin first visited his own Church's site. As soon as he entered the gate, he saw Logan, who also happened to be looking at the gate. Seeing Malin, Logan opened with "big plan," which made Malin curious, "Tell me, what's the job this time?"

"It's not your job, it's the personal contest's betting pool. I've selected a batch of potential contestants, planning to make long-term bets. As long as one of them becomes the champion, I'll be able to make a tidy profit, principal and interest included." Logan appeared wholly confident, so much so that his face was brimming with pride.

Malin glanced at Faye beside him, who shook her head, indicating her disinterest in this big plan, but considering Malin and Logan's relationship, it was clear she didn't mind listening further.

"You have three minutes, Logan," Malin nodded, signaling his old friend to continue his pitch.
