Mystery: Lucky One

Klein, who got the news from the mirror, immediately told Alice about it.

Alice finished reading the memories that Klein sent her and frowned little by little.

What does it mean that you haven't gotten pregnant yet?
She moved her fingertips nervously twice and soon made the same guess as Klein.

It should be Hazel, but in the middle... something went wrong in the middle? In short, it seems like something is missing?
Alice frowned.

She felt a little uneasy about not being able to understand the full situation, especially about leaving Will Auceptin with Hazel, which Alice wanted to refuse from the bottom of her heart.

——That was a social person that Klein couldn’t avoid.

Although she didn't treat Klein as a flower in a greenhouse and didn't intend to let him face any danger, Alice didn't want Klein to face such an extraordinary danger, especially since it was not something he should have to bear.

So Alice hoped from the bottom of her heart that the fact that she had not gotten pregnant meant that Will Auceptin could change his "mother", or simply have an abortion... Well, the latter was not very realistic, but changing his "mother"...

Alice blinked.

She thought of someone who might be interested.

——Amon.

But please help Amon... As soon as this thought came to Alice's mind, she shuddered and extinguished her unrealistic idea in horror.

Alice knew very well that conventional requests for help and transactions would not get Amon's help. Even if Amon agreed, he would most likely regret it halfway, unless he intended to do so himself.

——Is there anything about Hazel that Amon is interested in?

Alice pinched her brows and thought of someone she almost forgot.

By the way, she had a teacher. That mouse said her name was Flora Jacob, and she was a descendant of the Jacob family. She came to Backlund to find the Jacob family's treasure...

Alice's eyes lit up.

The Jacob family's treasure plus a broken "Parasite" snack should be enough to attract Amon, right...?
This actually still cannot guarantee that Amon will be interested in Will in Hazel's belly, and will change his "mother" on a whim. Even Alice is not sure whether Amon can do this - she actually just wants Amon to come out and test Will Auceptin's condition.

No matter what Amon's purpose is, He knows the "bad fate" between Will Auceptin and me. Once He sees Will Auceptin, He will definitely not leave it alone. However, He may not tell me Will Auceptin's current situation. Even if He tells me, there is no guarantee that it is the truth...

Besides, it was easy to attract Amon, but it was easy to send Amon away...

Alice frowned, realizing that this matter needed an extra layer of insurance.

Also, I need to remind Klein... Oh, can I notify the church? To be more precise, I should ask the goddess for help...

No, no, I can't look for it now, otherwise I might be blocked. I need a more appropriate time so that the church can respond in time without affecting my time...

After trying to perfect this idea, Alice decided to wait until she talked to the Hermit lady before making any further comments.

…I can only do one thing a day!

With the mentality of "today's task has been completed", Alice welcomed Monday's Tarot meeting in a good mood.

After the figures solidified in the crimson light, Alice turned to Justice Audrey, who stood up and saluted as expected:
"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool~"

Alice was already very familiar with this process. While waiting, she cast her eyes towards the Hermit Cattleya, casually guessing how many pages of Roselle's diary the Hermit would bring this time.

When Justice Audrey greeted her, Alice pulled back her thoughts, nodded twice casually, and looked at Klein again.

At a glance, Alice noticed something was wrong. She frowned and looked at Klein's hand, and found an extra card there.

...Did he bring out the "Wheel of Fortune" card to make things look more interesting?
This was Alice's first reaction, but after thinking about it for a while, she felt that this was impossible, because if Clay wanted to do this, he would definitely tell her, although this was actually not a big deal.

Alice guessed that this was Klein's new discovery this week. She didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that if no one asked about it later, she would wait until the Tarot Club was over to ask.

Audrey, the Justice, finished her greetings quickly. Alice looked at Cattleya, the Hermit, but she didn't speak. Instead, Audrey spoke first:
“Dear Mr. Fool, I have collected three pages of Roselle’s Notes.”

Alice looked at "Justice" Audrey with surprise.

The number of Roselle's diaries that were scattered around was limited. After obtaining the portion owned by their own forces, no one in the Tarot Club had collected new Roselle's diaries for a long time. Even the "Hanged Man" Alger had collected the wrong diary made by Alice.

This indirectly reflects that collecting diaries is not an easy task. Alice even suspected that the diaries that were lost were baits set by Bernadette - of course, she had never told this idea to anyone, nor had she verified it.

Audrey, the "Justice", held her head high, looking proud of her own achievements. Alice looked at Cattleya, the "Hermit", and found that she still had no intention of speaking.

…She has no new diary entries this week?

Alice frowned slightly. At the head of the long bronze table, Mr. Fool’s calm voice rang out:

"very good."

Next was the Fool's reading time. Alice watched Klein count the time out of boredom. She noticed that Klein flipped through the diary much faster than the previous two times. She tilted her head slightly and realized that this was probably due to the amount of information.

From this perspective, Bernadette knows more about the diary than anyone else...

Alice glanced at the Hermit Cattleya thoughtfully, and then counted the time.

After reading the diary, Klein made it disappear. Then he looked at Audrey and said:
"What do you want in exchange?"

Here it comes! Alice's eyes suddenly lit up. She knew what "Justice" Audrey would get in exchange, because Audrey had always been like this.

As expected, Audrey, who had no other needs, chose to satisfy her curiosity. In Alice's expectant eyes, she asked curiously, "Dear Mr. Fool, is the extra card in your hand the 'blasphemy card'? Which one?"

Klein was also very happy about Justice Audrey's question. He was naturally happy to save a reward. After laughing secretly, he casually turned over the card and said:
"tyrant."

The Emperor Roselle wearing a triple crown on the card was very conspicuous. Alice took a look at it and felt that Emperor Roselle had a good aesthetic taste. At the same time, she couldn't help but become curious about the "Witch" card.

...No, maybe there is also "mother".

Alice thought of this path coming from the "Fallen Mother Goddess" and her expression became strange for a moment.

——“Mother” is obviously a word with a clear gender connotation.

And, moreover, it is possible that Emperor Roselle is actually having a baby right now... but no one knows for whom.

Oh no, maybe it’s twins… No, maybe it’s multiple births, both the “Mother Tree of Desire” and the “Fallen Mother Goddess” are involved…

Alice began to daydream.

Justice” Audrey quickly took in all the details of the “blasphemous card” and her thoughts began to race.

The Tyrant card... looks like it's from the Sailor route. I envy Mr. Hanged Man...

Hey, Mr. Hanged Man didn't show any surprise or shock... From a psychological point of view, his reaction should be greater than ours! Hmm, did he know in advance that this was the "blasphemous card" of the "Sailor" path?
Eliminating all impossibilities, this is the only explanation...but how could Mr. "The Hanged Man" know this in advance?
Audrey's peripheral vision passed by the Hanged Man Alger, which made her feel confused. As she continued to think, she secretly hoped that Miss Fate would ask something.

Sequence 0: Tyrant... The potion corresponding to "Storm Lord" is called "Tyrant"?
This "Tyrant" card should be the prototype of the Pope card, but the specific meaning is still somewhat different. Some of it is consistent, some is closer to the reversed position, and some is an extension... In short, the card interpretation is that it represents conservative ideas, emphasizes spiritual obedience, relies on majesty and power, creates fear, and brings faith...

Audrey, who has loved mystical knowledge since childhood, felt a strong sense of satisfaction as she interpreted it, and felt that the three pages of Russell's diary were a great bargain!

Both parties of the transaction were very satisfied, and the onlookers also had their own guesses. Emlyn the Moon and Fors the Magician, who knew little about the matter, basically identified the Tyrant with the Lord of the Storm, while Cattleya, the Hermit who had a lot of knowledge, thought even more.

The "World" Gehrman Sparrow planned the fall of the "Sea God" Kalvetuwa, so Mr. obtained the short staff that symbolized the authority of the "Sea God" and began to respond to believers in the name of the "Sea God".

This time, He got the "Tyrant" card from Storm Path again...

This is definitely not a coincidence!

As she thought about it, Cattleya was startled and suspected that Mr. Fool was quietly eroding the authority of the Lord of Storms!

A battle between gods! A huge plan with a meticulous layout and far-reaching impact! Is this one of Mr. Fool's real purposes? One thought after another flashed through Cattleya's mind, causing her to unconsciously retract her gaze, not daring to look at the "Tyrant" card again.

"Sun" Derrick had received a very solid education in mysticism in the City of Silver. He was not unfamiliar with the concept of Sequence 0 and had even set his own goal at this level. Only in this way could he bring light and warmth, hope and a future to the City of Silver.

This should mean that the Elf King Sonya Solem was originally called "Tyrant"... However, His "authority" seems to be a little more than what this card shows... Derrick thought with a rare sense of deep involvement.

Alice's brain was under much less burden than the others. She turned to the Hanged Man Alger and asked bluntly:

"Mr. 'The Hanged Man', are you unhappy?"

Alice's eyes were full of curiosity. In her impression, Alger, the "Hanged Man", was an introverted person, so it was relatively normal for him not to have a big reaction. However, this also made it difficult for Alice to tell whether Alger was really happy, so she chose to ask directly.

"Of course I am happy," Alger, the Hanged Man, replied calmly, "I am happy from the bottom of my heart that Mr. Fool has made new achievements."

This is too fake... Inside the gray fog, the corners of Klein's mouth twitched slightly.

He had put away the "blasphemy card" during Alice's conversation with Alger, but he did not interrupt their communication. He just secretly calculated the time to prevent Alice from going on and on.

Alice couldn't be fooled by such a false response. She immediately realized that Alger already knew about the card. She frowned and questioned Klein:
"Why did he know this before me?"

"You had a chance to find out with him," Crane responded with a chuckle, "Unfortunately, you're too busy this week."

Alice paused, recalling that she had rejected an invitation from Klein. It was an exploration plan that he and Alger had agreed on early on. At that time, her attention was still on Will Auceptin.

"Okay." Alice reluctantly forgave Klein.

After a pause, Alice realized that many eyes were still on her. She looked back curiously, and everyone withdrew their gazes.

——In fact, they just couldn’t figure out what Miss Destiny, who had nothing to do all day, was busy with.

Seeing Alice calm down again, Klein turned his gaze to the Hermit Cattleya. The Hermit Cattleya stood up and saluted consciously.
"Dear Mr. Fool, there is no new Roselle diary this time."

As expected... Cran nodded slightly, smiled and said, "It's your turn."

As soon as he finished speaking, Alice sat up straight and wanted to speak, but Mr. Fool's trumpet "World" spoke first:

"When this party is over, I will give you the extraordinary characteristic of 'Ocean Singer' and ask you to help me find a 'craftsman' to make it into a magical item that is easy to carry."

Alice swallowed her words regretfully and waited for this exchange to end.

Another extraordinary characteristic of "Ocean Singer"? The same thought occurred to Audrey "Justice", Emlyn "Moon" and others at the same time.

A Sequence 5 warrior is not a carrot that can be bought casually on the street!

Which quasi-high-ranking member of the Church of the Storm was really killed this time? The Hermit Cattleya had some ideas based on the speculation that Mr. Fool was eroding the authority of the Lord of the Storm.

The Magician Fors became more and more afraid of Gehrman Sparrow. Thinking of the two pages of demigod-level abilities in his notebook, he swore in his heart that he would never use them even if he died.

Otherwise, maybe at the next Tarot meeting, Mr. World will gain the extraordinary characteristics of "Recorder" or "Traveler"...haha. (End of this chapter)
