Chapter 153 Emperor Tarot
Gradually, everything around him became silent again.

When Mia's consciousness began to flicker out of nothingness again, the first thing she felt was coldness.

It's like the soul has been pulled out of the body and soaked in the cold sea water.

Under the cover of chaos, she seemed to hear whispers in her ears over time.

Although she couldn't see anything, Mia could feel the strange sights coming from all directions with her intuition.

In the darkness, some incomprehensible beings are examining and arguing fiercely about everything about themselves.

After an unknown amount of time, as the body's senses gradually recovered, the sounds lingering in the ears began to become increasingly blurry.

In a daze, Mia opened her eyes with some difficulty, and then she saw that there was still a dim space in front of her.

The air was filled with the smell of moldy paper. It felt like being in an old library. As the corner of my eye drifted inadvertently, I saw a heavy rain outside the colored window near the bookcase. It was pouring rain, which is rare for Altdorf, which is suffering from drought and water shortage.

An oil lamp placed in front of the window sill was emitting faint light, and the dancing candlelight was gently swaying to the rhythm of the raindrops hitting the glass. Gradually, Mia touched the slightly damp blanket covering her body. .

This seems to be someone's bedroom?

While thinking, she turned her gaze to the room again. With the faint light in the room, she looked around and saw books stuffed everywhere and scrolls tied up in the small space in front of her. .

The large bookcases are already full, and some books that cannot fit are even piled up on the floor in the corner quite casually. It is not an exaggeration to say that this place is a mountain of books and a sea of ​​books.

In the center of the room, a skinny old man wearing a hood was sitting at the table, facing her direction. The dim light made it difficult for her to see his face clearly.

"Who are you"

"Why am I here"

As she spoke, Mia sat up from the hard bed with a mattress. As the blanket was lifted, she realized that the dirty shirt she was wearing was gone, and someone had bandaged her wound. And put on a clean long skirt.

Regarding Mia's questions, the old man sitting at the table was not eager to answer anything. He just picked up an art-like card with a golden background from the six cards placed up and down on the table with great interest. Beautiful cards.

Mia recognized those things. It was a divination tool that was extremely popular in the Imperial Inquisition and even the think tanks of the Space Marines. It was said that the person who created this divination system was the Emperor himself, so it was generally called the Emperor. Imperial Tarot.

Once, at the request of her mentor Latifah, she even learned how to use this set of cards from a famous fortune teller.

As the card array consisting of three cards was assembled, and after the cards were revealed one by one, it seemed as if they had seen something interesting. The old man sitting in the center of the room gradually laughed. The hoarse voice was like an old crow.

This situation naturally attracted Mia's attention.
Not long after, under her blank gaze, she saw the old man first grabbing the golden pocket watch that was placed on the table, and after looking at it carefully for a moment, he came to her side unhurriedly.

"Long time no see, Miss Mia."

The moment she heard this voice, Mia was stunned for a moment, and then under her gaze, the old man took off the hood on his head, showing his old but shrewd face in front of the girl.

"Is it you?"

At this moment, she couldn't help but widen her eyes, because the old man in front of her was actually the owner of the pocket watch, Elobas Hillman.

It was also the primary goal of her trip. If it hadn't been for Teacher Latifah once mentioned that this old inquisitor was living in seclusion here, she would never have risked her life to come to Altdorf. Mia thought this would be an extremely long journey
"The train you were on encountered some accidents and derailed on the way, and I happened to be nearby at the time."

At this moment, Mia couldn't believe her ears. There could be such a coincidence in this world. It was as if someone had arranged everything secretly.

However, she didn't care much at this time. As if she had grasped the last hope, she jumped up from the bed and immediately began to try to explain with excitement.

"Lord Elobas, about my mentor's matter"

Don't wait for Mia to finish speaking.

"I have heard everything about you, and I deeply sympathize with Latifah's experience."

At this point, Elobas' tone paused, and this made Mia's heart suddenly rise to her throat. While looking at the other party, her hands couldn't help but tighten her skirt.

In just two seconds, it seemed like centuries had passed, and then the old inquisitor continued to speak.

"But I believe there must be something else hidden in this matter, and I believe you must be innocent."

As the words fell, the old man began to look at the girl in front of him with a face full of grievances with an intriguing look.

Hearing that the other party was willing to believe her, Mia was almost crying at this moment. However, before she could express anything, she saw old Elobas holding his hands behind his back, as if he was sizing up something, walking around the place. The girl standing beside the bed turned around half a circle.

Immediately afterwards, the other party shook his head in disappointment, and then said in a slightly regretful tone.

"It's a pity that you haven't learned how to effectively use your talent."

"My. talent?"

The old man's words made Mia feel a little confused.

Because if he understands correctly, what the other party is referring to is the special psychic talent he possesses that can see through and touch the essence of the target subspace.

As an expert with professional research in psychic classification and subspace knowledge, whenever other inquisitors encounter any problems related to subspace, they will always discuss it with them.

For example, in the early years, his mentor Latifah had a long communication with him regarding his ability.

"But you once warned that this ability has too many uncertain factors and should not be used lightly unless necessary."

To this day, Mia can still clearly remember that when she first learned about her ability, the old man in front of her was shocked.

In the eyes of the other party, this is an extremely dangerous ability, both for the user and others around him.

Once out of control, the consequences will be disastrous.

But why.
Now the other party's attitude has changed so much.
