Chapter 322 The One Who Didn't Die
...meteorite?
Audrey suddenly remembered the tremor she had felt at home that day.
I thought it was a battle between high-ranking members of the Goddess Church and high-ranking members of the Aurora Society or the Witch Cult, but I didn't expect it to be a hunt for Mr. Fool's followers.
I remember that the streets and woods not far from Prince Edsack's Red Rose Estate were severely damaged because of this?
Which faction does Ince Zangwell belong to? He's absolutely despicable!
...Ince Zangwell?
Fors felt the name sounded familiar, but couldn't quite place where she had heard it before.
...So many things happened, why does this guy only remember me being hit by a meteorite?
Although this is also the most memorable thing for me...
After muttering a couple of thoughts to himself, Klein chuckled indifferently, "Unfortunately, he had to distance himself from Backlund because of this."
Mr. Fool's followers are temporarily leaving Backlund?
Lost in thought, Audrey rose to her feet and bowed sincerely to the "Fool" at the head of the table: "Please convey my gratitude to him."
Seeing Miss Justice's action, Fors also stood up and bowed respectfully to Mr. Fool, saying, "Please convey my gratitude to him as well."
Seeing the two ladies' actions, "Moon" Emlyn paused for a moment, wondering if he should also stand up at this moment.
But I don't know any of Mr. Fool's followers either.
While he was still struggling with his decision, "Justice" Audrey had already looked at Cyril and asked with curiosity and seriousness, "Mr. 'Fate,' is there a deeper secret hidden in this smog incident?"
Sirion glanced at Miss Justice with some surprise. He thought she hadn't thought that much about it, or that she would directly ask Mr. Fool.
He paused, then said thoughtfully, "It's not exactly secret, but we have a more truthful answer than what you got from the official sources."
Without waiting for further questions, he organized his thoughts and continued, "The Witch Cult has a partnership with the Royal Family of Rune. The Great Smog Incident and the Aurora Society were merely targets they used to attract the attention of the three major churches, as well as means to erase some traces."
The descent ritual of the "True Creator" was disrupted by the "Mysterious Queen," who used this opportunity to complete the ritual and is now a Sequence 2 angel.
The vessel for divine descent, nurtured by the Witch Cult for the Primordial Witch, also broke free from its original destiny due to interference from the Goddess of Night and another being.
After he finished speaking, the hall became so quiet that not even a breath could be heard.
"Justice" Audrey sat in her seat, somewhat absentmindedly:
If the royal family and the witch cult have cooperated, doesn't that mean the royal family was behind this smog incident?
And then there's Prince Edsack, who was seduced by the witch. He was actually just a sacrifice pushed out to appease the three major churches.
Alger, the "Hanged Man," was more interested in the "mysterious queen" mentioned by Cyril and couldn't help but ask, "The mysterious queen? Is it the mysterious queen, one of the four pirate kings of the high seas?"
Cyril nodded slightly: "There probably won't be another mysterious queen in the Five Seas."
The vessel for the descent of the "Primordial Witch," the "Goddess of Night," and another great being... "Magician" Fors felt his heart pounding.
Alger, the "Hanged Man," also thought about these things, and even thought about them more deeply.
...The one that "Fate" can directly refer to as a great being must not be a known righteous or evil god, nor "The Fool".
So what terrifying secrets are hidden in this massive smog event in Backlund that would warrant such overt or covert intervention from so many great beings?
No, it shouldn't be the smog event itself, but rather the collaboration between the Witch Cult and the Royal Family of Rune. Those great beings were all after the Royal Family of Rune and the "Primordial Witch".
For the royal family to take such a huge risk and cooperate with the witch cult, this matter likely involves the true god O.
Mr. Fool sensed something, which is why he sent his followers to investigate the matter and, at a crucial moment, informed "Justice" and "Fate" of some information, allowing them to guide the fate of the Church of the Goddess of Night and the God of Steam and Machinery through their respective channels.
Alger subconsciously looked at the "Fool" shrouded in gray fog at the top, and saw that the other party was still sitting there leisurely, as if looking down on everything indifferently, or as if everything was within His expectations.
After letting his thoughts wander for a moment, he quickly lowered his head.
After a long period of silence, today's tarot session resumed its normal proceedings.
Audrey looked again at Mr. "The Fool" at the head of the table and said regretfully, "I'm sorry, Mr. Fool, because of the cleanup efforts by the three major churches and the military in Backlund, I didn't have the chance to get the rest of Roselle's Diary."
"Hmm." "The Fool" Klein nodded indifferently, not caring about it.
Upon hearing Miss Justice's words, Fors quickly turned to Mr. Fool at the head of the table and said, "Respected Mr. Fool, I have collected three new pages of Roselle's diary."
"The Fool" Klein nodded slightly: "Very good."
He then helped Miss "The Magician" materialize three pages of Russell's diary that she had memorized, and made them appear directly in her hands.
Russell, Diary?
Emlyn, the "moon," stared blankly at the scene, feeling as if he had learned something extraordinary.
While the members waited, "The Fool" Klein quickly finished reading the three pages of Russell's diary from "The Magician".
After the parchment in his hand disappeared, he chuckled and said, "You may begin."
After saying that, he turned his gaze to Sirion.
Miss Magician's diary entry this time mentions the Twilight Hermits again, and surprisingly, Hermes, who has lived since the Second Age, is among them. I wonder if he knows them.
There's also the "Red Priest." I'm more inclined to interpret it as the red of war and the priesthood of the essence of power, but there's some basis for suggesting that it was the priesthood of the original creator, though I don't know what it is.
Sensing the gaze from the head of the long, weathered table, Sirion glanced back in surprise, then looked away, turning to "The Sun," Derrick, on his right.
The other party is answering Miss Justice's question.
"I found the part of the mural depicting the angel of fate, which is the node of the cycle of fate. After that, the chief successfully disrupted the cycle of fate."
"Although everyone's memories of the time when they were trapped in the cycle of fate have not yet returned, they are no longer trapped there. When they return to Silver City, they will be able to discover the problem from the perspective of time."
"good."
"The Fool" Klein remained composed and replied calmly.
Alger, the "Hanged Man," shifted his posture slightly and then asked Miss Justice, continuing her earlier question: "What exactly happened?"
Derrick didn't hide anything and described all the attempts he had made since the last tarot session.
Finally, he added, "The chief told me that based on previous events and the reminders I gave him, he recalled some content recorded in ancient texts, the veracity of which is unknown."
"Legend has it that when the Creator of all things, the all-knowing and all-powerful God, looked down upon this earth, he was surrounded by many angels, among whom there were eight kings closest to his throne."
"He suspected that Amon was the Angel of Time from the King of Angels," while Urelius was the Angel of Fate."
At this point, he couldn't help but look at Sirion.
Because the other party mentioned that there were eight angel kings beside the "Ancient Sun God", one of whom was the "Angel of Fate" Urolius.
The chief's words seem to corroborate that the "ancient sun god" mentioned by Mr. "Fate" is the creator of everything, the omniscient and omnipotent god, whom we in Silver City believe in.
While he was pondering, "Justice" Audrey couldn't help but ask, "Mr. 'Sun,' what are the titles and names of the other six angel kings?"
"Huh? I don't know." Coming to his senses, Derrick shook his head somewhat sheepishly: "The chief didn't say, and I didn't dare ask..."
'
Audrey was not disappointed by "the sun's" answer, but instead looked at Cyril.
"Mr. Destiny, do you know?"
"What kind of payment would I need to make to know the answer to this question?"
Upon hearing Miss Justice's words, Fors the Magician, Alger the Hanged Man, and Emlyn the Moon, who was still confused about the situation, all turned their heads to look over.
Cyril leaned back in his chair and nodded slightly. "I know."
"But I don't recommend that you know."
"Why?" Fors, the "Magician," asked on behalf of Miss Justice, voicing her doubts.
Cyril glanced at her and said calmly, "Most of them are still alive, and doing very well."
"Knowing too much might lead to dreams or accidentally blurting it out. Then they might look at you, and then..."
Although Sirion didn't finish speaking, it dampened everyone's curiosity considerably.
What if the former King of Angels is now an evil god?
Seeing everyone's reaction, he suddenly smirked and said, "I can tell you something, and it's free. Do you want to know?"
Although he was asking questions, he didn't actually intend to collect everyone's opinions. Immediately after asking, he began to speak on his own: "The Ancient Sun God, the creator worshipped in Silver City, one of the eight angel kings under the throne of the omniscient and omnipotent God, His firstborn son, the 'Imaginary Angel' Adam."
"He is still the leader of the Twilight Hermits, the organization that cannot be spoken of, written down, or even recalled in any way."
"As the King of Angels, He also possesses this characteristic."
Klein, seated at the head of the weathered long table, cast a complex glance... "You just sold your boss's information like that? And for free?"
However, this information is really... well, hard to evaluate.
Although I know a terrible secret, I can't say it or think about it, otherwise it will attract attention. What's the difference between that and carrying a bomb with me?
"Can't speak, can't even think?" Emlyn looked at him blankly and speechlessly.
If it weren't for the need to maintain the noble elegance of his vampire lineage, and if Mr. Fool wasn't still here, he really wanted to question this guy about why he was revealing this kind of information.
Is it because you're troubled by this that you're making everyone else feel uncomfortable?
"The Magician" Fors weakly raised his hand: "Um, is there a way for me to forget this part of the information?"
"Because of my job, my mind is generally quite active, so if these kinds of thoughts accidentally pop into my head..."
"It's alright," Sirion reassured him. "As long as you don't bring it up repeatedly, He usually won't mind."
"Even if he notices it, at most he'll add you to his script at certain times, making you a part of the plot."
Klein nodded silently to himself: Yes, he's not dead.
Fors: =—=
'
This is already very serious, okay?!
After internally screaming, Fors looked pleadingly at "Miss Justice" beside her: "Miss Justice, do you know the technique of hypnotizing people and making them forget some of their memories?"
Audrey shook her head slightly: "I'm not a psychologist yet."
Seeing Miss "Magician's" reaction, Cyril suddenly felt guilty for going too far with his joke, so he raised his hand and said, "I still have some psychological suggestions I've recorded. If you're worried about accidentally recalling these memories and attracting Adam's attention, I can plant a psychological suggestion in you."
"This will make it difficult for you to recall this part of your memory outside of Mr. Fool's Kingdom."
"
"No payment is needed; consider it compensation for the information you provided earlier."
"I need it." "The Magician" Fors quickly raised his hand.
Emlyn hesitated for a moment, but ultimately did not raise his hand; he was traumatized by suggestion.
"Justice" Audrey and "The Hanged Man" Alger also did not raise their hands. They had enough confidence in themselves that they would not recall this part of the memory unless they took the initiative.
Cyril then asked the Fool for a private conversation with Miss Magician, planting a psychological suggestion in her mind.
After this incident, the people at the Tarot meeting were no longer so curious about the title and name of the King of Angels.
Even the "Justice" Miss, who is an "audience member," cannot guarantee that if she knows more, their names or titles will not suddenly flash through her mind at some point.
Then Cyril leaned forward slightly, turned to Alger the Hanged Man, and asked, "Mr. Hanged Man, I've found the recipe for the 'Ocean Singer' potion. The price they're offering is 5000 pounds."
"I suggest you wait and see. At this level, even if you get the potion recipe, it's not easy to collect the materials. You might as well try to find a special item with extraordinary properties, or a magical item containing the corresponding properties."
Alger looked at him with some surprise, then nodded seriously: "I understand, thank you for your suggestion."
