Mystery: Lucky One

Chapter 44 Chapter 8 Possibility of Resurrection

Alger asked with increasing vigilance: "Dear Mr. Fool, what do I need to do?"

Alice quietly pricked up her ears. After all, she couldn't wait until she needed to send it... No, she could learn it now when she needed it, right?

Klein pressed his right hand lightly and said:

“I said, this is just an attempt and may not succeed, so your cooperation is needed.

"First, you prepare an altar. It doesn't have to be too complicated. It can be very simple. The only requirement is to engrave or draw this symbol."

Alice raised her head, and a screen of light appeared in front of Klein. On it was the pattern on the back of Klein's chair.

Looking at the pattern, Alice suddenly remembered that she and Klein had been resurrected from the dead, and that Mr. Azik and the goddess had no unusual attitude towards this... Perhaps, for high-ranking beings, resurrection is not a big deal.

This realization flashed through Alice's mind. She thought of the state when she first woke up in a strange body, and suddenly had a horrifying thought: Who stipulated that resurrection must be in her own body? Woolen cloth?
Alice shuddered, and she forced herself to focus on Klein's next words: "If you forget, you can pray to me, so that you can 'remember' it."

Even if you guessed it, so what? Can I avoid the consequences I guessed by staying in the current sequence and not moving forward? No, the next sequence of potions will fall from the sky and pour directly into my mouth...

Alice listened expressionlessly as Audrey and Alger responded to Klein's words, and then Klein went on to describe:
“Secondly, follow the normal procedures, but there is no need to burn additional herbs, apply holy oil, or choose a specific time, just chanting my name is enough.

"Remember, chant in ancient Hermetic or Giant language, and match the following prayers:

“Your faithful servant begs your gaze;
“I beg you to accept his offering;

“I pray that you will open the gates of your kingdom.

"After reciting, combine the spiritual materials with the vibration of natural power caused by the mantra, and wait for my response.

"If this step fails, change the spiritual material to extraordinary material and try again from the beginning."

Alice's thoughts gradually calmed down during Klein's description, and then she began to wander again: In this case, wouldn't it expose the fact that Mr. Fool has no favored one... Well, what is "The Hanged Man" thinking about? He seemed completely convinced of himself, I really want to know...

Next, after Klein and Alger agreed on the time for the ceremony, he said to Audrey: "After Mr. 'The Hanged Man' succeeds in his attempt, I will tell you the ceremony for the request."

If money transactions also use this method, then can I let others sacrifice their money and not ask for gifts, and use this place as a bank...

This thought flashed through Alice's mind, and she looked at Audrey and Alger: "I want to exchange the previous news into money. In addition, you no longer need to look for the 'School of Life' and 'Monster' to access the extraordinary path." information.”

"Have you met the Beyonder of the 'monster' pathway?" Alger asked.

"That's right," Alice nodded slightly, looked at Alger and said, "300 pounds, for information about the 'Shepherd'."

Alger frowned, but nodded: "How should I give you the money?" "No hurry," Alice tapped her fingertips on the table, "If the sacrifice ceremony is successful, you can give the money to you." Sacrifice to Mr. Fool, if not, I will give you an account at the next party."

Then, Alice looked at Audrey again: "1300 pounds, of which 1000 pounds is for information about the previous secret organization - you won't favor one thing and the other, right, Miss Justice?"

This was not a big burden on Audrey, and she readily agreed: "If Mr. 'The Hanged Man' succeeds in his attempt, I will give the money to you."

So Alice turned to Alger again: "Mr. 'The Hanged Man,' there is one thing, are you willing to satisfy my curiosity? Well, I can exchange the situation of another thing."

"What?" Alger asked.

"How did Qilingus die?" Alice asked.

Hearing this, Audrey also raised her hand curiously: "I want to know too! Uh..."

Audrey, who had no information to exchange, began to think about whether it was worth using money to satisfy her curiosity, and Alger replied seemingly unintentionally: "This is solved by Mr. Fool's favored ones, I think Mr. Fool The Beloved should know the situation better."

Alice thought of Mr. Azik, whom Klein called his teacher—that gentleman seemed to be very experienced in things like resurrection from the dead. Could that mysterious favored one be him? However, it is indeed more important to deal with the "Hanged Man" first...

"I forgot to ask, you should know it too, right?" Alice blinked twice.

Forgot to ask? Is she referring to Mr. Fool or Mr. Fool’s favored one? Alger was suddenly startled. He looked at Klein, who was sitting at the head of the long table, but Mr. Fool, who was hidden in the thick gray fog, did not express his opinion.

"So that's it," Alger collected his thoughts and said in a deep voice, "This is not some secret news, I can tell you now."

Alice and Audrey then put on a posture of listening carefully.

"While we were chasing, Mr. Fool's favored one, a high-sequence strongman of the 'God of Death' path, took action. Qilingos rotted away without any chance of fighting back during his escape." Alger said. Baba described it.

The "Reaper" path... rotted away without any chance of fighting back... Alice, who had just fought with a mid-level "Death" path, was silent. She couldn't help but start to think about whether she could be resurrected if she rotted... ...Uh, that should be okay. She's not in Klein's situation?
"This is really..." Audrey organized her words, as if trying to find a suitable adjective.

"Miss Justice, do you want to hear something more interesting?" Alice raised her eyebrows, "And Mr. 'The Hanged Man' and Mr. 'The Sun'... Well, I think my news is better than 'The Hanged Man' Mr. People's is much more interesting."

Interesting... Alice's choice of words gave Alger and Audrey a bad feeling, but Alger still spoke in a deep voice: "What's the news?"

"The descendant of the fallen creator is dead." Alice replied in a brisk tone.

"What's so interesting about this?" Audrey, who was ready to hear another horror story, was a little confused.
