Mystery: Lucky One

Alice blinked twice and finally realized what Cattleya was trying to say.

——When she was almost out of control due to the influence of the Hidden Sage, it was obvious that it was Klein's act of pulling her above the gray fog that saved her.

Ah this.

Alice began to think about how to make this situation right.

So annoying, can I not help him? Alice sighed in her heart, raised her chin, and said stubbornly:

“I don’t want His help!

"I can do it myself!"

She showed her stubbornness perfectly, and for a moment, Klein almost believed her lies.

If Alice hadn't thrown all the honorific things to him.

However, she has really improved a lot. I'm not surprised that she can act, but she didn't ruin my show. Instead, she took the initiative to help me cover up my lie... Well, although this was caused by her carelessness in the first place.

But it was enough for her to remember to deal with the trouble she had caused, as long as it wasn't like before...

Klein looked at Alice and thought of Amon, who was still on the front page of the Church of Storm's wanted poster. He suddenly felt relieved.

Cattleya looked at Alice hesitantly, then looked at Mr. Fool and The World who had no intention of expressing their opinions. After a moment of silence, she encouraged him:
"I'm sure you can think of a way, Miss Destiny."

——She seemed to completely believe in Alice's acting.

It should be said that the only one who vaguely sensed something here was "Justice" Audrey.

It wasn't that there was something wrong with the expression and tone Alice displayed. She had always been very good at imitating others, and it was easy for her to imitate other people's expressions and tones.

For Audrey, the incongruous part of this matter is that the character doesn’t match.

Doesn’t Miss Fate always want to throw everything to others...?
Although such a stubborn act was not inconsistent with Alice's character, Audrey wanted to know why Alice had such an idea, and secondly...

She always felt that even if Alice really had such an idea, she would give up after just thinking about it.

Audrey did not voice her doubts, but just sat there with a smile on her face, acting as a qualified "spectator".

Even though it was just to get by, Alice had to admit that she was indeed pleased by Cattleya's words. She looked at Cattleya with an appreciative look that said "You are very tactful".

Cattleya didn't know what to say, she lowered her head in silence.

The Tarot Club fell silent again. After a short pause, Alger took the initiative to bring up a new topic:

"Miss Fate, if we come across Roselle's diary compiled by you next time, how should we tell it apart?"

"Oh, right..." Alice put her hand on her chin. "But I only wrote two pages. It's okay for you to remember those two pages and compare them every time, right?"

It made sense, and Alger was forced to agree with it.

After looking at the others who had no intention of speaking, Magician Fors mustered up the courage to speak up, trying to lighten his workload:

“Miss Fate, we are not as familiar with Rosel language as you are. We cannot memorize the contents of the diary and can only forcibly remember the appearance of the characters on it. This is a huge burden for us.

“It’s hard for us to remember a certain page of the diary all the time, let alone compare it every time we see a new diary. But we can’t pray to Mr. Fool every time to restore our memory…

"Do you have a simpler way to help us distinguish those two pages of the diary?"

Alice looked at Fors doubtfully and asked,
"Then how did you know you hadn't handed in this page when you saw the new diary?

“Did you hand it in without even trying to tell the difference?” Audrey, who was standing next to Alice, lowered her head, not wanting to look at Fors.

The Hermit Cattleya and the Hanged Man Alger also looked away, and the Sun Derrick imitated his predecessors and looked away.

What happened to them... Emlyn "Moon" looked around in confusion, then looked away.

Klein thought for a moment, then manipulated the World to stop him:

“Miss Destiny, I remember you made a mark, right?

“You seem to have said that there is a sentence on those two pages of the diary that was modified from a famous quote by Emperor Roselle. You can recognize it as soon as you see it…”

...?
Alice was stunned for two seconds before realizing that this famous quote should refer to "The witch tastes really good."

...That is indeed a famous quote, and it may be the only famous quote said by the emperor himself.

Alice forced a smile with mixed feelings and said:

"Yes, that's what happened...

"I will teach you those three sentences."

After teaching the members of the Tarot Club the shapes of "The Witch Tastes Really Good," "The Iron-Blooded Knight Tastes Really Good," and "The Faceless Man Tastes Really Good," Alice pointed at "The Witch Tastes Really Good" and said:

"This is what Emperor Roselle said originally. The other two sentences were adapted from this sentence."

Everyone remembered this incident. Among them, Audrey, a top student, raised her hand, as if she had something to ask.

Alice nodded slightly to signal her to speak.

"Miss Fate," Audrey asked a question Alice didn't want to face, "What does this sentence mean?"

Alice was lost in thought.

Following Audrey's question, everyone looked at Alice, even the "Hermit" Cattleya seemed to want to know what this meant.

No, it was normal for her to be curious. Maybe she was going to tell Bernadette...

Alice looked at Klein who was hiding in the gray fog. Very good. The corners of his mouth were raised high, and he seemed to be expecting her answer.

...You can't tell the truth about this, right?
Alice was silent, Alice hesitated, Alice was conflicted.

This is not appropriate...

Alice gritted her teeth and tried to delay time while thinking:

“This sentence… well, this sentence is Emperor Roselle’s… well, it is Emperor Roselle’s attitude towards life.

"What this sentence means is... uh, what it means is... if translated into Loen language, it should be..."

What should I do? I can't hold on any longer. Help Klein...

Alice was in a state of panic, and Klein had obviously noticed this as well. He was also thinking about what to say.

...You can't really tell the truth!
But in fact, it is better to have some relationship... Well, witch tastes really good... Witch... Assassin... I remember that the emperor wrote many books about assassins...

Klein chuckled and covered up Alice's lie:
"Everything is false, everything is permitted." (End of this chapter)
