Mystery: Lucky

So it was this sentence... It seemed to be from some book of Emperor Roselle... But is there anything wrong with this sentence? Why does Miss Fate look so embarrassed...

Such a thought flashed through Audrey's mind, and then she saw Alice pat her chest with her hand, exhaled, and muttered:

"So this is how it is translated..."

...?

So that's how it is... Miss Fate can understand it, but she doesn't know how to translate it into Loenese... It doesn't seem strange if it's Miss Fate...

Alice's act of slandering herself brought the matter to a satisfactory end. Although Cattleya still looked at Alice in confusion, they all accepted this statement.

After all, unlike Mr. Fool, who was suspected to be a "respected elder", Alice... She didn't look like a cultured person at first glance.

Of course, Alice could see what the others were thinking. Although this was a decision she made after a sudden inspiration, when she found that the image she left behind was really like this, she still gritted her teeth secretly.

So angry...

Alice squeezed the chair with her hands under the table. She suppressed her desire to glare at Klein and decided to cause him some trouble later.

It must be his fault!

The good news is that her angry attitude successfully persuaded Audrey, who wanted to ask what the other two sentences meant.

—— Although she was curious, Audrey knew that it was not a good idea to attract Alice's attention at this time.

Without Audrey, except for Emlyn, others would not take the initiative to ask even if they were curious. The only one who might ask was Emlyn, "Moon", who was not very interested in it.

The matter ended just like that. After finding that no one else spoke, "Sun" Derrick thought for a while and raised his hand, carefully choosing his words and asked:

"I encountered a little... a little... a very special situation during my recent patrol mission.

"Our patrol team suddenly became very unlucky when passing through a ruin. They choked when drinking water and choked when eating...

"This situation did not last long and would disappear in about a day, but every patrol team passing by the ruins would encounter this situation...

"And outside the Silver City, this kind of bad luck would develop into a very dangerous situation, such as the lights suddenly going out, or suddenly encountering monsters...

"Although no one has made a mistake in the battle so far, I am worried..."

Although he did not specifically point out a certain person, Derrick's eyes for help fell accurately on Alice this time. In his hesitant eyes, Alice had to remind him:

"You see, I am useless... I can't hear your prayers outside, but I don't know how to get there... I can't ask Amon to take me there, right?!"

This is what they have experimented with.

In fact, at one point, Alice wanted to ask Derrick why he didn't ask Klein - after all, his honorific name included "the yellow and black king who controls good luck", but she quickly held back.

After all, Mr. Fool doesn't have the ability to control good luck now, and it would be awkward if someone asked.

Suppressing the dangerous thought, Alice continued:

"You can wait... um, wait until I find a way to go to your place, uh, or wait until Mr. Fool recovers a little, until he can send people over..."

Thinking of Klein's ability to receive prayers from the "Forsaken Land of God" and respond to the rituals there, Alice glanced at him.

It shouldn't be because of him... No, this is nonsense, he has no ability to receive prayers at all, it must be because of Sefirah Castle... In this case, why can't the Key of Light do it?

Is it the difference between the Pillar level and the Old One level? Or...

Alice pursed her lips gently, thinking of the power that seemed to be calling her.

Combined with the knowledge of the law of aggregation of extraordinary characteristics, Alice suspected that she only carried a part of the power of the Key of Light, which was not complete, and might not even be the main body. The real Key of Light was actually sealed in the Western Continent.

This was also one of the goddess's guesses about her situation at the time. Another possibility was that she was a fragment of the Key of Light that escaped, but she had existed as a unique entity, and Alice insisted that she must have been a human at the beginning, so this possibility was temporarily ruled out.

However, if this is true, I should really go to the "God-forsaken Land" to take a look... After all, it borders the Western Continent, and maybe I can get more clues.

Then give Him back the damn birthday gift.

Thinking of this, Alice clenched her fist, raised her head and smiled:

"Well... avoid there for the time being. If you need it, I can provide you with a spell to remove bad luck, as long as you... uh, you don't have money."

Alice looked at Derrick, who was not familiar with currency, and fell into deep thought.

Derrick, who realized that the matter could not be resolved for the time being, had not had time to feel disappointed when he heard good news. Then, the good news turned into bad news. He said unwillingly:

"I, I can provide extraordinary characteristics and various materials..."

"I can sell them on your behalf." Alger also tried to make a profit from this transaction.

Alice shook her head and said to Derrick with a smile:

"Maybe you are just worried about your friend, but for Mr. Fool's sake, and because this is the first time, I refuse you this time.

"Next time, there won't be such a good thing. After all... you have no reason to come up with so many spells to relieve bad luck, and there is no reason to ask for benefits from other people, right?

"Destiny is not a philanthropist, so in order to repay the price, you must not be a philanthropist, dear Mr. Sun."

There was a hint of intimacy in Alice's tone, but the look in her eyes at Derrick was colder and more warning than before.

Derrick woke up in this look and realized that Miss Destiny was not as easy to talk to as Mr. Fool.

Judging from past performance, there won't be too serious consequences if they temporarily owe Mr. Fool something, as long as they don't really plan to run away.

But, if I owe Miss Destiny for the time being...

Unfortunately, Alice's past behavior will only make people think that she will suddenly regret it at any time and charge you absolutely no money.

The impermanence of fate is perfectly reflected in her.

Thinking of this, Derrick stood up and solemnly thanked:

"Thank you for the reminder, kind Miss Fate."

...?

Is he talking about me...?

He, he is really talking about me, right...?

Forget about Ms. "Hermit", Little Sun can't...

Alice, who had a clear understanding of herself, raised her head hesitantly, blinked twice, and asked uncertainly:

"Me, mercy?" (End of chapter)
