Mystery: Lucky

Arrodes, who has a good habit of answering every question, immediately said:

"You can..."

Before it finished speaking, Alice frowned and stopped it from continuing:

"Someone is coming...I saw the butler walking towards here."

Arrodes paused. Alice was not sure in what form it answered the unfinished answer. Anyway, she didn't hear a word, only one question:

"You're not going to stop him?"

Alice didn't say anything. She searched around with her spirituality. After discovering that Klein was rushing here from a few streets away, she decided to ignore the matter and watch the excitement. She was very interested in Dwayne Dantès. Phantom said:

"No.

"Well...it's almost time. Get ready."

With that said, she disappeared where she was.

The master bedroom was on the third floor. Walter took a moment to go upstairs. After the knock on the door, Dawn Dantès asked weakly on the bed:

"who?"

Alice began to count the questions in her mind.

Walter turned the handle and pushed the door through a gap:

“Sir, Bishop Electra comes to visit you.

"Are you going to meet him in the living room or living room, or are you inviting him directly to the bedroom?"

Of course he was invited to the bedroom, as if he could get up... Alice muttered in her mind, and silently searched for Klein's progress on his way.

After a brief silence, Dwayne Dantès responded: "Invite him to the bedroom."

"Okay, sir." Walter motioned to Richardson to urge the maid to prepare tea, and walked downstairs to lead Elektra, the bishop of the Church of the Night, upstairs.

Soon, Elektra entered the bedroom and saw Dwayne Dantès lying on the bed, looking slightly haggard.

"Richardson, please sit down, Bishop." Dwayne Dantès said with a slightly pale smile.

Alice was stunned for a moment. There was obviously one missing question here. It took her a while to realize that this was a big adventure. Then, she saw Richardson looking at her with confusion.

Did he see me? No, no, it was a chair, he saw the chair!

Apparently, Richardson was puzzled by the chair next to the bed.

But as a mature valet, he did not ask his master if he had a private meeting with anyone here. He just walked to the chair, bent down and asked Bishop Electra to sit down.

Bishop Electra also realized that this was obviously someone he had just met, but his identity made it inconvenient for him to ask. He took a few steps forward, observed Dwayne Dantès's face, and asked with concern:

"Dawn, how are you feeling? Have you called in the internist?"

Dwayne Dantès coughed twice, smiled and said:

"Actually, it's almost healed. I think tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow, I can continue to go to church and listen to your sermons."

"That's good. I was also thinking about whether I should help you pray to the goddess for blessing." Elektra laughed, took a step back, and sat down on the chair. Alice stood up and gave up her seat in horror.

At this time, Dwayne Dantès glanced at Mr. Bishop and chuckled:

"Actually, I have always had a question: Can clergy members of the Goddess Church get married?"

Alice stood aside and looked sideways at Bishop Electra, thinking of the captain and Ms. Daly.

It should be possible, right...? Hmm, but it seems to be different. Nighthawks and clergy are not the same thing after all...

Elektra, who was still two years short of turning forty, sighed and smiled:

“This problem has actually troubled us for a long time.

“In many ancient theological councils, archbishops had violent quarrels over this issue.

While believing that servants who serve the goddess must remain holy, regardless of whether they are men or women, otherwise it would be an act of blasphemy against God. At the same time, he found the words of the goddess from classics such as "Revelation of the Night" and believed that the goddess was encouraging marriage and equality between the sexes. In normal interactions, clergy should be role models, not counterexamples. This is the greatest respect for the goddess.

"In modern times, this issue has been basically put aside. The church neither prohibits nor encourages it. The only requirement is that married clergy cannot allow their families to live in the church."

Dwayne Dantès nodded slowly when he heard this, and said with a slightly raised corner of his mouth:

"Bishop, do you have a wife?"

One more question... Alice blinked.

Bishop Elektra, who has a thin face and is not good-looking, but is inexplicably pleasing to the eye, sighed and said with a smile:

“Two years ago, I got married under the witness of the goddess, and I just had a child this year.

"I originally wanted to remain single to serve the goddess, but as a result..."

As he spoke, he laughed at himself and shook his head.

Alice stared at Bishop Electra for a few seconds, deciding to ask him if she planned to have another child later.

Bishop Elektra continued the topic just now and asked:

"You seem to be single too. Are you thinking about marriage?"

This question made Alice stunned for a moment. She observed Klein who was still rushing back and seriously considered the possibility that he would want to fall in love and get married.

At first, Alice was limited to subtle misunderstandings. She once doubted Klein's sexual orientation and his relationship with Amon. Later, Alice gradually realized the lack of gender concepts in mythical creatures and the impossibility of a relationship between Klein and Amon. Come together.

But Alice never thought about the possibility that Klein might fall in love. She knew that Klein's original purpose was to go home. Now even if he can't go back home, he is struggling between revenge and finding out the truth. It seems that he doesn't care. Fall in love, but...what if?

Alice couldn't help but worry, because the answer to this question was actually crucial to her. After all, she hoped that Klein's future lover would not mind her boyfriend getting pregnant and having children.

Otherwise she might really go to the goddess.

Alice sighed and turned her attention back to the topic at hand.

Bishop Electra didn't wait for Dwayne Dantès to answer, and asked the second question:

"What kind of lady do you like? Maybe I can help introduce you to someone suitable."

ah? This... Alice looked at Klein, who was still on his way, and then looked at Arrods silently, waiting for its answer.

Dwayne Dantes coughed again and said with a smile:

"In the past, in order to accumulate wealth, I always chose to take risks, so I was unwilling to get married because I was afraid of dragging down the other person. Oh, I like many types and I am not picky.

"I like women who are older than me and can give me warmth and make me feel at ease..."

Before he finished speaking, the valet Richardson next to him suddenly froze. He immediately looked sideways, then lowered his head uncomfortably, with an inexplicable burning pain on his face.

Alice noticed Richardson's reaction, her eyebrows skipped a beat, and she realized from the nature of the game of truth or dare that this might not be the woman that Dwayne Dantès liked, but Richard. Sen likes it.

Alice paused for a moment of silence for Klein, who had already appeared on Berklund Street, and then continued to watch the excitement.

——This will not allow Klein’s identity to be revealed, nor will it ruin his plan... It shouldn’t be possible, right?

Dwayne Dantes seemed unaware and continued:

"She is much younger than me. She is innocent and lively. When people see her, it is like seeing her in the morning. She is full of vitality unconsciously. I also like..."

With the previous incident in mind, Alice's eyes subconsciously searched the room. She saw the smile on Bishop Elektra's face suddenly solidified. She raised her palm, clenched it into a fist, put it against her mouth, and coughed twice.

Alice realized that this was the kind of woman Mr. Bishop liked.

Dwayne Dantes did not stop, shook his head, sighed and smiled:

"I also like women who have been in a love or marriage situation where people dare not approach them because of their status and can only look at them from a distance. They are full of charm, and their every move makes people intoxicated. It is difficult to restrain them. They always dream about... "

The butler Walter, who was standing nearby, suddenly trembled, as if he had just experienced a dream that he didn't want to wake up from but was extremely resistant to, and it was difficult to distinguish whether it was good or bad.

Alice watched this scene and took a small breath. She glanced at the resentful spirit Senor who appeared beside the bed, and his figure moved and appeared next to Klein not far away.

"Look on the bright side," she patted Klein's shoulder sympathetically, "at least Bishop Elektra, your butler, and valet don't like men or weird creatures."

Klein took a breath and looked at Alice in horror.

"So," Alice asked sincerely, "what do you like?"

"?" Klein looked at Alice in confusion.

Alice blinked and explained her original intention: "I'm worried that your future girlfriend or wife will mind if you get pregnant and have a baby."

"..." Klein looked away and ignored her.

They didn't stay outside for too long. Even though Klein came back in time, due to Arrodes' previous efforts, Bishop Elektra didn't stay long before he hurriedly took a few sips of tea and left.

Alice took Klein, who had transformed into Dwayne Dantès, upstairs. As soon as he entered the room, Dwayne Dantès stood up on the bed and saluted:

"Welcome back, my great master.

"Well done, your humble and loyal servant Arrodes, well done."

"It's good," Alice said before Klein spoke, "At least your master doesn't have any issues like homosexuality, fetishism, or furry control."

Arrodes became visibly more nervous.

When Klein saw this scene, the corner of his mouth twitched. He reached out and pulled Alice behind him, sighed and said:

“It’s okay, it’s a good disguise.

"But when chatting, try not to irritate others."

"I, I will pay attention!" The image of fake Dawn Dantès quickly disappeared, revealing a small mirror on the pillow.

Above the mirror, silvery white light burst out immediately, squirming and condensing into words:

"Thank you for your affirmation. I will always follow your footsteps and look forward to the next opportunity to serve you~"

After a simple goodbye expression, the mirror returned to normal.

"It really seemed to think that was a yes." Alice turned her head and said in surprise.

"If it were you, you would also think this is certain." Klein glanced at her, "By the way, do me a favor."

Alice blinked at him.

Klein explained to Alice: "I'm going to herd Mr. X's spirit body later. Can you let me draw the 'Traveler's Door'?"

Alice knew this skill. She preferred to call it "portal" or "travel". Its function was to allow people to travel through the spirit world. If Klein had this skill today, he would not become a nymphomaniac.

But there is no if in this kind of thing. Alice looked at the nymphomaniac Dwayne Dantes and said with pity:

"Then, put a coin in the wishing machine, this poor gentleman."

Klein touched his body and took out a gold coin and a copper coin. He looked up at Alice, hesitated for a moment under Alice's glare, and handed over the gold coin.

"Why don't you give it to me together?" Alice asked after taking the gold coin.

Klein opened his eyes wide in surprise. After a moment of silence, he handed over the one-penny copper coin, and then stared at the gold coin that Alice had not put away.

Alice ignored the look, put the two coins away, and said to Klein:

"That's enough."

"I'll send you a book next time." Klein threatened expressionlessly.

Alice's eyes widened in anger, but Klein ignored her, looked around, and suddenly trembled violently.

"What's wrong with you?" Alice frowned, thought for a moment, and blocked the direction of his sight.

Klein exhaled and felt much better. He sighed to Alice:

"I have a revolver called 'Death Bell', which is a magical item..."

He introduced the side effects of the Death Bell to Alice in detail, and then explained at the end:

"It seems that the weakness this time may be the fear of mirrors."

Alice looked at Klein in surprise, and Klein suddenly felt that his spirituality was gradually filling up. He might have realized that this was a "restart" if he had had similar experiences. Sure enough, when Alice moved away, he looked at the mirror again and was no longer trembling.

"It's really useful..." Klein said with envy, "So, you are not afraid of the side effects of most magical items?"

"Well, that's not the case," Alice shook her head, "The side effects of those magical items can't work on me, isn't it because the owner of the extraordinary characteristics couldn't attack me when he was alive?"

Klein nodded thoughtfully, and then asked:

"Can I ask you for help next time I encounter this situation?"

"I can't guarantee that I will help," Alice glanced at Klein, "After all, if the weakness is left on you, you will be in danger..."

Klein gritted his teeth, he knew what Alice didn't finish saying. Alice might not only not help, but also let him encounter the things he fears frequently, and then appreciate his fear. (End of this chapter)
