I don't think this fight needs an explanation since it was quite simple, so I'll point two things out:
1. It was mentioned that Klein needs 16 seconds to achieve initial control over someone who's of the same sequence. But he needed 10 seconds to achieve that for Mr. A. This isn't a mistake, but it's because of his earlier use of Bribe-Weaken on him. It effectively weakened Mr. A's overall combat abilities and resistances, so Klein needed less time.
2. What Klein means by "he must've used all of his demigod recorded abilities" is that Mr. A is a cheat of a Shepherd. We already knew that Shepherds can devour up to 7 souls and characteristics and use some of their abilities, but Mr. A found a loophole to increase that number. And that is to devour a sequence 6 Scribe of the [Door] pathway and use its "Recording" abilities. That's what the transparent book with the words "I came, I saw, I record" is. He can record the abilities that he sees and use them along with his other abilities.
1. Every person's Astral projection(soul)is connected to the spirit world, and that's why it's the source of divination since it's your soul that searches for answers.
2. Both "Traveler's Door" and "Flame Jump" are connected to the spirit world and allow the user to do long or short distance teleports.
3. In this "concealed" place, that connection is not completely severed, but it's heavily interfered with. It's like when your internet connection suddenly goes down in quality, it still works but barely and slowly.
4. This connection is slightly enhanced when the moon gets clear and the Traveler's Door will barely work as an invisible spell.
5. As for Flame Jump, it's an inferior and short-range version of the Traveler's Door that can be used instantly, so even without the clear moon, it still works.
6. The Door Opening that he used is not the Traveler's Door. It's exactly what the Master Key allowed him to do. It just turns a wall into a "door".
If you haven't remembered yet, she's the sequence 4 Demoness of Despair that worked with Ince Zangwill and Mr. A to orchestrate the "Great Smog of Backlund".
The one that they called Lady Despair. What she did now was use her imperfect Mythical form to damage Klein through his marionette.
1. Apparently, high sequence Beyonder characteristics often have the soul "imprints" of their previous users.
2. Because of this, if the compatibility between the Beyonder and the characteristic that he or she wants to consume is low, there's a high chance that they will fail to advance and even die.
3. This is why most families or organizations treat their descendants that are similar to their ancestors in terms of appearance as highly "talented" candidates to inherent their ancestors' Beyonder characteristics. Because they are compatible with that characteristic and its imprints.
4. Floren mentioned here is an example. He was a descendant of the Sauron family mentioned back in volume one and two. He was similar to one of the family's ancestors, so they gave him his characteristic, and he advanced to a high sequence.
5. Of course, there are other ways, too. One of them is using the power of an angel or a grade 0 artifact to shatter the characteristic and purify it.
If anyone's a bit lost on what happens to Xio. The Aurora order has probably locked onto her hence why she was dazed, it's the Aurora order prying into her memories. But since the one killing Mr. X was Klein, the only memory she has about that day was to help Fors gather ghost remains

In case you're wondering how Klein knew about the gargoyle's weakness, that's because his Death Knell has a weakness shot, which can show him the weaknesses of his targets.
I don't think I need to explain anything since all the previous foreshadowings and bits of knowledge from Volume 1 and 2 have been connected quite clearly here.
