Mystery: Lucky One

Chapter 142 Chapter 16 The protagonist of the era—Leonard!

Alice stopped when her hand rested on the doorknob.

That was the interior of St. Samuel's Church. A man wearing a long trench coat and red gloves stepped across the threshold and entered the church.

This man has dark hair and green eyes, with messy hair, handsome features, a casual and unruly walking posture, and a poet-like temperament about him.

...Leonard.

It's been a long time since Alice has predicted the future so uncontrollably. If I have to say it, it's probably...fate thinks she can handle it?
Alice had reservations about this speculation. After all, she was not sure that Will Auceptin and Amon were not within the range that could be dealt with.

No, Will Asceptin said otherwise - it seemed fate had bet on both of them...

However, what is certain is that if Leonard meets her by chance in church, she will most likely be unable to control her emotions.

Moreover, unlike Old Neil, who was not familiar enough with her, Leonard might recognize her—or at least become suspicious.

It's not a big deal to let Leonard know that she is still alive. After all, she can be regarded as the goddess's favored one in a sense.

What Alice is actually worried about is the danger surrounding her and the fate that cannot be controlled.

She is not worried about Klein. After all, it is hard to say who is in more trouble, she or Klein, but Leonard...

There shouldn't be anything wrong with Leonard... right?

Thinking of Leonard, who confidently called himself the "protagonist of the era," Alice suddenly wasn't so sure.

...There is a story about going out of your way to avenge your friend after his friend dies. It seems to be the protagonist's script, right?
But if he is so confident that he is the protagonist, should he also have a golden finger... I really want to see what it is.

The restless thoughts jumped a few times in Alice's heart, but Alice forced them back.

After mentally preparing herself, Alice went to the church.

She quietly closed her eyes and sat on the chair to pray. After reciting the prayer, Alice opened her eyes and found that the lenses were stained with dust.

Alice took off her monocle, wiped the dust on it with a handkerchief, looked around the church, and saw Leonard in a trench coat and red gloves walking toward the depths of the church.

...Leonard.

Alice watched him walk over slightly absentmindedly, holding the cleaned monocle in her right hand and slowly raising it.

When she raised her hand to her chest, Leonard seemed to feel her gaze and looked to this side in confusion.

Alice quickly lowered her head, pretending that she was just an ordinary girl attracted by beauty - I have to say that Leonard's face was sometimes useful.

Naturally, she gave up trying to put her monocle back on and stuffed it away.

Leonard looked around in confusion and then looked away, but Alice frowned as she looked at Leonard's back.

Alice felt as if there was a hidden gaze staring at her. She looked around uncomfortably, but could not find the target.

When she turned back in confusion, Leonard's back had disappeared, and the sight that fell on her had also disappeared.

Alice blinked in confusion, but the object staring at her had disappeared. Alice thought for a moment and finally decided to get up and go home.

She opened the door and returned to the living room first. She frowned and took off the necklace she named "Matilda", took off the "wealth accessory" that had become crooked at some point, and then changed into a light one. Home Furnishings.

"Broches are really easy to twist..." Alice held the fortune accessories and left the living room and stepped into the study.

She spread out the drawing paper and after drawing a few strokes, she raised her head irritably.

There seemed to be something incompatible with the room, which made her subconsciously irritated. She looked around doubtfully, and finally her eyes fell on the bottle of potion next to the desk. "Provocateur" potion.

Alice remembered - potions have a shelf life.

"But, why didn't the bottle Amon gave me before absorb the magic potion...Does he really intend to give this thing to me as a souvenir?"

Alice was shocked.

Sequence potions are different from other potions in that they will not become useless just because they have been stored for a long time. However, sequence potions may be absorbed by the potion container.

The extraordinary items born under such circumstances are somewhat similar to the extraordinary characteristics left behind by out-of-control Extraordinaries - to put it bluntly, they are almost impossible to exploit.

Generally speaking, maybe three or four days after the sequence potion is configured, you may find that the container containing the potion has turned into an extraordinary item...

Alice knew that there was a method within the church to preserve high-sequence potions. This method could most likely be used on low-sequence potions, but perhaps because the cost was too high, no one would do it.

So...Amon, how boring are you? !
Alice looked at the potion in front of her with dull eyes.

Because the potion given to her by Amon had never expired, she subconsciously ignored the fact that the potion had a shelf life. Now...

After Alice stared at the bottle and thought seriously for a moment, she picked up a pen and drew a Q version of Amon's head on it.

...I wonder if I can see this Amon avatar open his mouth and curse when this extraordinary item is completely formed?

It's quite interesting to think about it...

Alice shook her head and decided to leave it in the living room in order not to let it affect her mood.

It should be fine if you stay away a little bit...

After placing the potion on the coffee table in the living room, Alice found the letter she had thrown on the coffee table before going out.

Oh, I haven’t read what Bernadette wrote yet... Oh, by the way, I have to remind her about Mr. A...

Is it really necessary?

Alice curled her lips, held the letter and returned to the study.

The question left by Bernadette is still very simple: "What is the relationship between the 'Fool' and the 'True Creator'?"

Alice was lost in thought.

How is the relationship? If the "True Creator" discovers "The Fool" Benke, why not send a saint and an envoy to capture him...

Alice thought carefully for a moment and then wrote: "The 'True Creator' attaches great importance to Mr. Fool."

——She didn’t lie. She sent a saint to capture Sequence 7. She couldn’t take it more seriously than this!
After successfully convincing herself, Alice held a ceremony to summon the messenger.

This time, she turned on her spiritual vision in advance and held the letter firmly in her hand, trying to figure out what Bernadette's messenger looked like.

But, this doesn't seem to work.

There was no feeling of the envelope being pulled, and no sign of the messenger was seen. However, after a gust of cool wind passed by, the letter in Alice's hand disappeared.

"I also want such a special messenger..." Alice muttered softly.

　What Alice thought: Destiny was worried that she would not be able to control her emotions after seeing Leonard.
　　Actual: Destiny is worried that Pales will not be able to control his emotions after seeing Amon's monocle.

　　Pales: How dare Amon come to church to pray these days?
