Mystery: Lucky One

After doing her evil deeds, Alice quietly left the Black Forest Bar, hiding her achievements and fame.

Bored Alice finally decided to rather die than read the book, and then she remembered something she had forgotten before - her comic was still missing an ending.

Alice, who became more dedicated because she didn't want to study, spent the whole morning and half of the afternoon like this, and even had lunch in between.

It was not until 2:55 in the afternoon, when Alice received a message from Klein, that she vaguely realized that another week had passed.

1350 was not a leap year, and today is February 2, the last day of February.

Mr. Fool's birthday is this Friday!
Alice's eyes lit up, and she realized that she could start writing the Witch's Taste Diary series - The Faceless Man Chapter.

By the way, I copied a few pages in advance and sold them. This way, if Klein finds out that I wrote it and doesn’t let me sell it, it will be useless...

Alice suppressed her restless heart and began to think about another question.

By the way, even though her birthday has passed, could she... let Klein make up for it with a gift?

Alice blinked twice and began to recall what she was doing on February 2th.

This should have happened three weeks ago, and that day should have been Saturday... Saturday?!

Alice's eyebrows twitched violently.

What was she doing on Saturday three weeks ago? Aha, she arrived at Bayam that evening and took back the Uniqueness - damn it!
Is this date a coincidence?

If not... what is this? A birthday present?
Song Shu's smiling face reappeared in her memory. Alice gritted her teeth and looked up at "Justice" Audrey who was greeting her.

Audrey's voice was as brisk as ever, and she still looked like she had no worries. When Alice looked up, she turned from the Hermit Cattleya to Alice:
"Good afternoon, Miss Destiny~"

Alice pulled her thoughts away from the emotion just now, raised the corners of her lips to reveal a cold smile, and responded without much interest:
"good afternoon."

Miss Destiny looked unhappy, as if she was worried about something... This thought flashed through Audrey's mind, but her smile and voice did not change, and she continued to greet everyone one by one as before.

After she finished greeting everyone, no one had a diary to hand in, so Klein leaned back in his chair and said:
"let's start."

Alice was the first to raise her hand when she saw this, and asked "Sun" Derrick, "Have you ever seen a similar building?"

As she spoke, she materialized a building standing in the frozen dusk with the help of Klein. Derrick became visibly excited:
"Giant King's Court!"

After shouting this, he realized his mistake and explained while suppressing his emotions:
"That, that's the Giant King's Court... Miss Fate, have you come to our side?"

"No," Alice shook her head, "I found a key...it seems to be related to this building."

Derrick's eyes widened.

“If it’s as you said, that’s the Giant King’s Court, then it must be related to the Giant King’s Court…” Alice touched her chin.

“Miss Destiny, if I want to get it, what should I do?” Derrick asked excitedly.

Alice glanced at him and said hesitantly, "You... can enter the Giant King's Court?"

Derrick shook his head.

Alice couldn't wait to make a decision for him: "Then wait until you can get in!"

Or, I'll wait until I have money...

Alice clenched her fists, and recalled the idea of ​​winning back a casino that Klein had stopped. Sigh... She sighed silently, and after pondering for a moment, she asked again:

"Have any of you ever heard of the name 'Cassandra'?"

Everyone looked at each other. Cattleya, the Hermit, thought for a moment and raised her hand.

"I have heard of a story in which the protagonist is a prophet named Cassandra... But when I heard it at that time, I thought it was probably a fictional story."

"Cassandra, Princess of Troy?" Alice raised her eyebrows.

"Yes, that's the story." Cattleya nodded.

"Ms. Fate, Ms. Hermit, what's that story?" Audrey asked curiously.

Cattleya looked at Alice. Alice didn't say anything and waved her hand to indicate that she was free. So Cattleya told the whole story again and asked at the end:

"Miss Destiny, what's wrong with this story?"

Alice pinched her brows, looked at her and asked, "When and where did you hear this story?"

"During..." Cattleya recalled carefully, "during a casual chat, someone mentioned it to me."

Audrey curiously repeated Cattleya's question: "Miss Fate, is there anything wrong with this story?"

Alice looked up at her. Even though Audrey didn't ask directly, Alice felt that she suspected that she had done it.

…Although it does seem to be my style.

No, how could such a thing be possible? It's obviously just a myth!

Alice shook off this terrible conjecture and said, "I just want to know the source of this story."

But I always feel that if I say this, they will think that I don’t want to say it... Alice lowered her head silently and didn’t ask any new questions.

Because no one was in a hurry to purchase potion formulas and materials, nothing important happened in the following Tarot Club. After chatting for a while, Klein announced the end of the Tarot Club.

Back in the real world, Alice began to consider the contents of her new diary.

She still hadn't forgotten what Klein had said. A "fortune teller" who remained at the "Faceless Man" stage couldn't actually make much change to his body, not even his figure, let alone completely transform into a woman.

Alice partially agreed with Klein's conjecture - for example, a high-sequence "Faceless Man" should be able to make significant adjustments to his body shape.

The reason why it was partly because Alice had some doubts about the gender of the High-Sequence Beyonders.

As Amon said, gender means nothing to mythical creatures.

Combined with the situation of "Restart", Alice feels that the gender of the High Sequence is probably mainly determined by the Beyonder's own cognition... Wait, it shouldn't be a witch, right?
Neither the witch nor the Iron-Blooded Knight should be them. The old days they correspond to... could they be the legendary hermaphrodites?
Alice was stunned for two seconds, then decided to concentrate on thinking about how to continue writing Roselle's diary.

Judging from the ability of the Faceless Man, he should be able to create a face that completely meets the aesthetic taste of Emperor Roselle. If he saw it...

If he saw it, some things that happened didn't feel fictional, right?

Alice silently took out her pen. (End of this chapter)
