Mystery: Lucky One

No one knows what Mr. World and Miss Fate talked about, but judging from Miss Fate's expression, this quarrel between a kindergarten kid and an adult ended with the kindergarten kid winning.

After Alice, no one else proposed a transaction, and they naturally entered into a free exchange session.

During the free discussion session, "World" introduced several rituals pointing to Alice, such as prayers, sacrifices and requests for gifts, and introduced related herbs.

Apparently, Miss Fate... the Goddess did not raise any questions, so the members of the Tarot Club memorized these rituals and vowed not to use them unless absolutely necessary.

After leaving the Tarot Club, Alice finally remembered to check the reply from her future teacher.

Alice quickly realized that this letter was not for her to read.

This is obviously written to the parents of students... Alice quickly scanned Edwina's letter and decided to give it to Klein without hesitation.

Edwina agreed to the additional students easily, but she did not follow Klein's suggestion in the letter to use personal belongings as a positioning tool, and only gave the time and place.

Bad news, she only has one night left to be free.

For a moment, Alice considered keeping the letter.

In that case, why don’t I just give the letter to Amon, and if Klein asks, I can say that Amon stole it... Hey, by the way, has Amon found the right “ingredients”?
Alice's thoughts wandered for a moment, and she quickly remembered the diary that was stolen by Amon, and Ian.

Mm, and the taste of the faceless man is really good...

Alice gave a malicious smile and passed Edwina's reply to Klein through a sacrifice ceremony.

Out of caution, Alice did not rush to create "The Faceless Man Tastes Really Good" - what if someone bought this page of the diary in advance and ruined the surprise she prepared for Mr. Fool?
Hey, by the way, when is her birthday?
The long-lost question was brought up again. Alice picked up the pen and wrote "My birthday" on the paper, then put down the pen and tried divination.

The first scene in the dream was the alley she was extremely familiar with.

She saw herself waking up in the alley, saw the "lucky man" fall down in fear, and saw herself taking the Beyonder Characteristics uncontrollably...

Everything was familiar to her.

What’s further ahead?

She and Song Shu were huddled in the room. Song Shu was holding a tablet in her hand with a bronze chair shrouded in mist on it. On the chair were four Chinese characters - Lord of Mysteries.

She saw Song Shu stretch out her hand and tap lightly, and the white mist dissipated, revealing a clear bronze chair, which then rapidly enlarged and brightened, turning into a gate of light.

After opening the light gate, a line of text appeared on the interface: Select your birthday.

"This interface is really nice..." Song Shu murmured, then turned her head and smiled at her, "Huanhuan, you choose?"

Shen Yinghuan naturally agreed to this request. He reached out and touched the screen. A scroll interface appeared with the year, month and day on it, and the year was fixed at 1334.

Shen Yinghuan stretched out her hand and swiped, finally selecting February 2 as her birthday.

"That's it," Shen Yinghuan said to Song Shu, "You were the one who created the character, why should I choose it?"

Song Shu reached out and held Shen Yinghuan's arm, then showed a rather exaggerated sad expression and said:
"Oh my God, I thought we had become inseparable a long time ago, but I didn't expect you to be so distant!

"I consider you a part of my life, and you, you actually tried to separate from me!"

Shen Yinghuan then looked away with a headache and said perfunctorily: "Okay, okay, it's all my fault, let's move on."

As she said this, she reached out and tapped the screen again. The next interface was face pinching. Shen Yinghuan glanced at Song Shu's expression and immediately realized that she was also being blamed.

She rolled her eyes and simply used the facial recognition function to take her own face as a template. She selected brilliant gold and pure blue as her hair and eye colors according to her personal preferences, and left the rest to AI to automatically generate.

The next interface made Shen Yinghuan a little confused. She looked at the words that appeared after "Select initial sequence" and fell into deep thought.

[Sequence 9: Monster][Sequence 8: Machine][Sequence 7: Lucky One][Sequence 6: Disaster Priest]

Note: Sequences that require rituals for advancement are not available for selection at this time.

"Shouldn't we... choose the route first?" Shen Yinghuan turned his head and asked hesitantly.

Seeing this, Song Shu smiled in surprise:

"Yeah, you still remember.

“However, although there are 22 paths, here… I think the interface at the beginning should be drawn as the Key of Light.

"Well... just think of it as respecting the book. After all, art deserves respect. Although this story... well, anyway, this should be a tribute."

Shen Yinghuan didn't quite understand what she meant, but she roughly realized that the initial path should be destined. She looked at the four names, hesitated for a moment, and chose the "lucky one" who sounded the most reliable.

"Once you make a decision, you can't change it, okay?" Song Shu watched her make the decision and finally confirmed.

Shen Yinghuan shrugged and said:
“Well… that’s it.

“Although normally the initial sequence should be as high as possible, ‘Calamity Priest’ sounds like something like ‘Dead Star’… It doesn’t feel like a good word.

"Just 'lucky one'. That sounds the most normal."

Having said this, Shen Yinghuan reached out and pressed the "Start Game" button.

The dream shattered, and Alice opened her eyes palely.

"February 1334, 2...the lucky one..." She bit her lips tightly and said nothing.

She had no recollection of the memory of creating the character before this - perhaps it had been cleared.

Alice was particularly sure of this answer. After all...

She took a deep breath, stood up, went to the bedroom, and stood in front of the full-length mirror.

The girl in the mirror had brilliant blonde hair and pure, bright eyes. She closed her eyes, recalled Shen Yinghuan's face in her memory, then opened her eyes and compared it with her own face one by one.

She had always felt that the face of this body gave her a sense of familiarity. When she recalled Shen Yinghuan's face, which had been ignored for some reason, from her memory, Alice realized the source of that familiarity.

Those are exactly the facial features of Rune's modified version of Shen Yinghuan.

Thinking of Briar Rose, who she had sculpted based on Song Shu's facial features after getting "Matilda", and Song Shu's words "there is no difference between us", Alice suddenly felt a chill.

You know, the last time she heard something like this was when Adam, the child of the ancient sun god, inherited his father's will... (End of this chapter)
