Mystery: Lucky

Alice frowned and sat there without getting a response, saying nothing.

She had long suspected that the goddess was peeping at her, and maybe Adam was there too - now she was not so confident that she could detect Adam's gaze.

The good news was that Alice thought that at least Amon was not there, or at least not as often as the two above - if Amon was watching, it would probably only be for certain specific things.

As for the two above... considering that the goddess had just admitted that she was a time traveler, these two, wouldn't they be taking turns?

... It shouldn't be that exaggerated.

Alice shook her head, threw away the unrealistic thoughts, took a deep breath, and chose the simplest way to verify.

She opened her hands around her lips into a trumpet shape, then took a deep breath and shouted:

"Adam! Are you peeping at me again!"

No one spoke, and no neighbors came to complain about her disturbing the public - the latter point was reasonable, because the sound did not spread.

However, the fact that the sound was confined to this small room was not inconsistent with the fact that the sound could be transmitted thousands of miles away. Alice put down her hands and shook her head, feeling a gaze briefly appearing and disappearing on her.

Alice lay down calmly.

There was nothing she could do, because she couldn't beat either Adam or the goddess, and to a certain extent, the goddess was still her backer.

What could Alice do? She had no other choice, so she had to collapse on the chair, raised her right hand high, shook it vigorously twice to express her excitement, and then weakly exhorted:

"Forget about the goddess, Adam... Forget it, just call her that for now.

"Adam, you have to remember the difference between men and women, you can't look at them while taking a bath! "

This time no one answered her, and Alice didn't care. She stood up and prepared to leave. She glanced at the box she had casually thrown on the table and stopped.

"Isn't it inappropriate to put this box here..." Alice murmured a little absentmindedly.

Only then did she remember that the box contained an extremely dangerous "0" level seal, which should not be thrown on the table like this.

But, if not on the table, where else should it be placed...

Alice subconsciously thought of Klein's Source Castle. The mysterious space above the gray fog had always been used by her as a storage space. She always threw important things in it.

But Alice soon realized that it was inappropriate.

She didn't completely understand To solve "0-34", she didn't have any information from the Church of Knowledge, and her understanding of "0-34" was almost nothing, and Klein was only Sequence 5 - she couldn't leave this level of trouble to Klein.

However, thinking of Klein, two ideas popped up in Alice's mind at the same time.

One was about "0-34", she thought of a wonderful storage place - she could throw it behind the Chanis Gate.

However, this might take a long time...

Alice shook her head and worried about the second question.

Strictly speaking, this is not a problem, it should be something that needs to be confirmed. Alice cleared her throat and asked:

"Ahem.

"Goddess, can you tell me your story!"

She wanted to tell Klein that the goddess was a time traveler.

The goddess did not reject Alice, or rather, the goddess ignored her.

After asking the question, Alice waited for a long time without receiving a reply from the goddess. Then she realized this. She curled her lips and decisively understood this as a tacit agreement.

…

After sorting out his mood, Leonard returned to the hall.

As expected, Soster was talking to others about the "lucky man" who fell to his death and the Megose incident in Tingen City - although he only knew about the records in the documents.

Leonard was not unfamiliar with this scene, because his new captain Soster was such a person. He seemed to be incompatible with the "Sleeping Man" path. The whole person was exaggerated and ostentatious.

In Leonard's impression, he especially loved to do this in front of Ms. Daly, even if he didn't change anything after learning about Ms. Daly and the captain's affairs - now he should be called Bishop Dunn.

Soest saw Leonard walking towards him from a distance. He waved his hand and changed the topic:

"Come to think of it, I remember that more than one person died in the Evil God's Offspring incident..."

Yes, more than one person died. The other person was...

Leonard's footsteps suddenly stopped.

If Alice in Tingen City is a little girl who can do nothing but has good luck, then Klein's specialness is actually very obvious.

Compared to Alice, who became ordinary after swallowing a "Lucky One" Beyonder characteristic by mistake, Klein's specialness has never been hidden. His connection with the "Fortune Teller" path is almost obvious.

More importantly, Leonard once talked about the topic of "protagonist of the times" with Klein. He once said that the two of them were the protagonists of two times that met...

...?

Leonard thought of Alice, whom he had met not long ago, and an absurd idea popped up in his mind.

Was Klein's Beyonder characteristic at that time also judged to have been taken away by Ince Zangwill...?

Is Alice really the only one who pushed open the grave and climbed out?

Leonard suddenly had a desire to return to Tingen City.

At this time, Sost turned his attention back to him and shouted at him:

"Leonard? What are you doing there? Come here!"

Leonard immediately reacted, and he smiled as he walked over and answered:

"I was just thinking, when will I have the opportunity to go back to Tingen City to visit and sweep the grave of my former colleague just now."

"Hahaha!" Sost laughed out loud, "Good idea, but I'm afraid it's a bit difficult to realize... No, not necessarily."

"Hmm?" Leonard thought about it and raised his eyebrows to look over.

"You can go find the person just now," Sost pointed to the direction of the door, "If you had a good relationship before, she might be able to help you ask for leave or something - or help us arrange a task over there."

After a pause, Sost added:

"But this is more difficult.

"After all, there are too few extraordinary events over there. "

This is true, but Soest's reminder made Leonard realize another way - he could actually ask Alice directly.

Even if Alice has a secret, she can freely go in and out of the church basement, which means that the church trusts her. The old man did not find any problems with her, which just shows that the goddess also trusts her and is helping her hide it all...

So, she is still trustworthy!

So, I can just ask her directly. If it is a secret that cannot be told or something that does not meet my confidentiality level, she will naturally tell me...

Thinking of this, Leonard relaxed and returned to his previous seat.

Now, Leonard was entangled with a new problem - where to get Alice's current address?

The good news was that this matter did not bother Leonard for too long. Alice, who had lost the holy book, came to the basement of the church again the next day. This time, she did not appear directly in Archbishop Anthony's office, but after a little thought, she showed up and walked in.

Leonard, who was playing cards, noticed her as expected, which was exactly what Alice wanted to do - she guessed that Leonard must have a lot to ask her.

Their eyes met in the air, and Alice's mood was much calmer than the day before. She asked before Leonard spoke:

"Do you have anything to ask me?"

Leonard stopped talking and nodded.

Next, no one of them spoke, and no one took the initiative to look away. The embarrassment of meeting again after a long separation was vividly displayed at this moment. Alice gritted her teeth and took the initiative to say:

"Wait a while... I have something to do now, okay?"

After a pause, she slapped her head as if she remembered something, and changed her words:

"By the way, I can give you the address.

"Ah, if only I had a messenger..."

Alice, who was used to calling her honorific name as a phone number, swallowed back the words that were about to come out of her mouth. After all, even if nothing else was considered, the three-part honorific name still represented different meanings.

At least not something a saint would have.

After leaving her address to Leonard, Alice walked into Anthony's office with a desire for a messenger and raised a huge problem.

"You said you were going to leave it behind the Chanis Gate?" After listening to Alice's statement, Archbishop Anthony looked at the hot potato on the table and asked with a frown.

Alice nodded.

Archbishop Anthony frowned at Alice and shook his head, saying:

"This is not something I can decide."

This is not a lie. After all, "0-34" is also a "0" level sealed object. Even if it is temporarily stored, it should be reported to the temple. Alice is not surprised by this result. She said naturally:

"I know, you can report it first. I can't run around with this thing, right?

"If it is a copy of the extraordinary characteristics of the 'Chaos Walker', it's fine. If I swallow it accidentally one day, it will be swallowed. Anyway, it's not the first time, and I have completed the ceremony...

"'Prophet'... I don't want to swallow it across levels... Hey, I remember that the extraordinary characteristics of the 'Prophet' should also include the extraordinary characteristics of the 'Chaos Walker', right?

"Is it possible that the extraordinary characteristics of the 'Chaos Walker' inside just accidentally fell out and were swallowed by me by mistake? "

This assumption was too fantastic. Archbishop Anthony stared at her in amazement, as if he didn't know how to start.

Alice probably knew that there was something shocking in this sentence, but she didn't think she was wrong. She stood there and waited for Archbishop Anthony to speak first.

It took Archbishop Anthony half a minute to regain his ability to speak. He opened his mouth and persuaded carefully:

"Normally, a sequence 2 extraordinary characteristic should indeed contain sequence 3 and below extraordinary characteristics.

"However, if you have this idea, it is best to take the initiative to find extraordinary people with relevant abilities, or magical items.

"Of course, if you really find one, the extraordinary person can be sent to the church."

"Is there really such an ability?" Alice opened her eyes wide, "But why do you only need to send the extraordinary person to the church after finding it?"

Archbishop Anthony glanced at Alice, and did not clearly answer her second question, but introduced her first question:

"Sequence 4 'No Dark' of the 'Sun' path has a very strong purification ability.

“They can purify the spiritual pollution within the Beyonder characteristics, and can also extract the Beyonder characteristics within the Beyonder’s body. Of course, they can also extract the low-sequence Beyonder characteristics.

"However, the extraordinary characteristics you have here are Sequence 2, and have even formed a sealed object. If you are simply a 'Darkless One', it might be a bit reluctant..."

Alice understood everything when she heard about the "Sun" pathway.

In Alice's mind, this way of spreading faith like a pyramid scheme finally revealed the true face of its power in Sequence 4 - purification.

It also purifies faith.

Of course, now is not the time to criticize this. After hearing about the abilities of the "Darkless One", Alice realized that she really needed a "Darkless One" now, or a higher one, or a magical item.

As for why people should be sent to church? This is not the responsibility of the "Undark One", this is a problem of the "Sun" path - you know, in Loen, those who believe in the "Eternal Blazing Sun" are pagans.

Judging from the previous activity of the "Aurora Society" and the "Witch Sect" in Baekeland, Roen's punishment for heretics is more severe than that for cultists.

In this case, as a favored person of the goddess and a saint of the church, if you find such a being who is more hated than a cultist, is there anything wrong in sending him to the church?

Alice accepted this readily. She nodded but felt something was wrong, frowned and asked:

"Then if I find it somewhere else, uh, the "Sun", the saint of the "Sun" path, of course I will give it to the local church, but if I find it in another country... Uh, then I might be a cultist... No, I, uh."

After boldly envisioning the future, Alice quietly retracted her vision and swallowed back the words "I am the Evil God" that came to her lips.

Archbishop Anthony replied as if he knew what she wanted to say:

"If there is no church locally or near you, you might also consider bringing him here, or..."

He scolded for a moment, looked at Alice, and said after consideration:

"...Develop him into an informant or a believer?"

Alice blinked blankly at Archbishop Anthony. For some reason, she subconsciously felt that this was not what Archbishop Anthony wanted to say.

This matter was basically confirmed. After finishing the topic in a few words, Alice hugged the box containing "0-34", opened the door and walked out.

Before leaving, Alice subconsciously glanced at Leonard's location, only to find that there was no one there.

...where are the people?

Alice frowned and walked home. (End of chapter)
