Mystery: Lucky

The book Song Shu mentioned in her memory was a thorn in Alice's heart. Most of the time she ignored it, but whenever she noticed it, it was difficult to ignore it again.

Oh, maybe breathing is a more appropriate metaphor. After all, once you notice breathing, you can’t breathe automatically...

Alice couldn't help but feel lucky that she didn't need to breathe above the gray mist. Of course, when she returned to reality, she actually had no need for this. To an angel, breathing was just like eating, drinking, and sleeping, and more. as a human habit.

Alice didn't look at Klein's expression. She noticed that it seemed to be a message from Emperor Russell to those who came after him, and continued reading without saying a word.

“If anyone can still read my diary, you must remember to choose your extraordinary path carefully.

“Once this is determined, it means that your allies and your enemies are also roughly determined.

"I can't make any specific suggestions because I can't see clearly the Seven Gods or the true faces of those evil gods. This may be related to part of the second 'blasphemous tablet' hidden by that ancient organization. It's a pity. I only had a rough guess that there were hidden parts, but I couldn't get confirmation.

"Similarly, I don't know what was written on the first Blasphemy Tablet.

"A useful warning is not to choose a path where the sequence 0 position is already occupied, and be careful of sequence 0 and sequence 1 on similar paths. I suffered a lot in this regard.

"As for what sequence 0 represents, if you don't know yet, remember to collect my other diaries.

"Haha, this page is equivalent to the postscript of my life. If I succeed, then there will be a divine life after that, which is another story. If I fail, there will be no afterword. Probably, well, you know.

"Go, friends who can read my diary, go explore the secrets of our time travel and the truth buried in it. I will watch you, if I am still alive.

"One final reminder, you must remember:

"Watch out for the moon!"

It seems that the emperor failed in the end... Alice sighed slightly, looked at the last "Beware of the Moon", shook her head, and raised her head.

Klein asked as if waiting for her to finish reading:

"Enemies and friends have been determined. Do you mean adjacent paths?"

Alice nodded.

It is easy to understand. If Sequence 0s on adjacent paths want to go further, they will be inevitable enemies. Alice confirmed to Klein:

"You know what your adjacent pathways are, right?"

Klein asked: "'Stealer' and 'Apprentice'?"

There were no other questions. Alice nodded. Unexpectedly, Klein asked curiously:

"What are the adjacent pathways to the 'Destiny' pathway?"

"No." Alice replied bluntly.

"No?" Klein looked at her in surprise, with envy in his eyes.

Alice knew why Klein was envious, and she said ruthlessly:

“Believe me, this is definitely not a good thing.

"You can't have enemies. If the quantity decreases, the quality will only increase.

"Otherwise, why do you think I haven't become a god in thousands of years?"

Klein glanced at Alice, swallowed back "You're so unlucky", and tried to analyze calmly:

"...Because of the 'Key of Light'?"

"Nonsense," Alice rolled her eyes at him, "Forget it, stop guessing. I'm afraid you'll die suddenly after just one guess..."

Klein paused and quickly changed the question: "By the way, do you know what Sequence 0 of the 'Soothsayer' path is called?"

This question made Alice clearly stunned for a moment. She looked at Klein and murmured in confusion:

"You don't know... By the way, you should not know, otherwise you wouldn't ask me..."

"What?" Klein had a bad feeling and frowned.

Alice pursed her lips, looked at Klein, and whispered the answer:

“…Fool.

"...Sequence 0 of the 'Soothsayer' path is called the Fool."

This is what the goddess of the night mentioned when she introduced the information about the source of matter and the outer gods.

Klein stretched out his hand and pressed down on the table. Even with the extraordinary ability of the "Joker", Alice could sense his gaffe from his tense muscles.

She looked at Klein with sadness in her eyes and sighed: "Look, where do we get the chance to choose our own path?"

Klein opened his mouth and was speechless.

Becoming a "divineer" was a decision he made on his own, based on the diary of Emperor Russell, but becoming a fool above the gray mist happened long before that.

so……

He looked at Alice with complicated emotions, took a deep breath and asked: "...So, if I hadn't chosen that way at the time, what would I have accidentally swallowed like you?"

Alice spread her hands and replied:

"I have no idea.

"Perhaps fate is particularly partial to you and uses milder coercion methods on you?"

A milder method of coercion... Klein gritted his teeth. He never dreamed that one day he would hear the words "mild" and "forced" appearing together.

They were silent for a long time before Alice opened her mouth and tried to break the silence:

"Although the emperor has warned you, but...

"Watch out for the moon."

Klein gathered his thoughts at these words. He raised his eyes to look at Alice, pondered for a moment and then asked:

"You know what's really on the moon, right?"

Alice nodded and looked at Klein. Considering that he had tried to explore this issue several times, she thought about it and decided to tell him a useless truth:

"On the moon, lives the true owner of the moon."

Klein looked at Alice with a confused look and sighed:

"It's rare that I see someone turn a useless thing into something so useful."

Alice shrugged and asked Klein, "Do you have anything else to do?"

After Klein shook his head in denial, she decisively left above the gray mist.

It was not yet dinner time, so Alice thought for a few seconds, remembered what "Hermit" Cattleya had mentioned about the blood of mythical creatures, and took the initiative to explore Allen's location.

Allen was working in the hospital. Alice appeared in front of him during his break. Regardless of his frightened expression, she leaned forward and asked:

"Did you find Ourolius' honorary name?"

"...No." Allen answered honestly.

The answer was expected, but Alice didn't find it too strange. She shook her head and then asked:

"All right.

"Then do you have any clues?"

This time, Allen did not answer Alice's question directly, but asked instead:

"Why do you think I can find it?"

"It seems not..." Alice didn't look disappointed at all. She stood up straight and responded, "In fact, I didn't expect you to find... How should I put it? If fate feels that Ourolius is at this time If it's time to appear, He will appear."

Allen seemed unable to understand this sentence. Alice thought for a while and tried to explain to him:

"It's like if you get to the point where you die, even if you escape once, twice, or three times, there will be a fourth, fifth, or sixth time. Everything will only end when you are truly dead. "

This was not a polite thing to say, but the huge gap made Allen helpless and angry. He just said numbly:

"...There is one thing, I don't know if it can be regarded as a clue."

Alice motioned for him to continue.

Allen then talked about the divination he heard from Selina. After telling the whole story, he asked again:

"I noticed that you and... you two seem to have different ideas about Ourolius?"

Alice narrowed her eyes at him.

The little courage she had mustered just now disappeared, and Ellen retreated. Alice glanced at his unwilling expression, and suddenly fell into a trance.

...That expression of fear and reluctance, couldn't it be that she wasn't herself?

Alice's mood when she read Russell's diary just now was recalled again. She recalled Klein's expression when he heard about "The Fool". She looked at Allen with dark eyes and whispered:

"...If a fight really breaks out, I'm not sure I can protect your wife."

Allen raised his head suddenly.

"I don't expect us to fight..." Alice didn't look at his face, "But when things have come to this point, it's hard for me to believe that we can survive the day he was born smoothly."

After a pause, she added:

"In fact, it is unlikely that Will Auceptin and I will initiate anything, because we are not ready yet, but Ourologis... to be honest, I am not sure about His attitude, He looks like It looks like he will rush forward when fate gives the order.

"And as Will Asceptin's 'mother', your wife must be the center of the matter. Once a fight breaks out, I can't guarantee..."

"That's enough." Allen said suddenly.

Alice raised her head to look at him, and Allen murmured in a low voice in despair:

"That's enough, that's enough..."

——A little hope is much better than complete despair.

Alice didn't speak. She looked at Alan quietly, and waited for him to calm down before asking aloud:

"Where is Selena?"

Allen replied: "She and Velma are in the same ward..."

Alice frowned. Although she knew that Will Asceptin could not know that he was currently in this hospital, she didn't really want to go to Will Asceptin's ward - it sounded too much like Provoked, she wasn't sure how many times Will could endure it.

Allen understood Alice's face this time, and he said:

"In the past few days, every day after dinner, Selina will be pushed out by the caregiver to relax in the garden..."

Alice nodded thoughtfully and asked Selena what she looked like.

——Although she could directly find Will Asceptin's ward and thus find Selina, but... that didn't seem very polite.

After dinner, she set her sights on the hospital again, found the burgundy-haired girl in the garden, and then rummaged through the experiences Allen described.

There is a keyword called magic mirror divination, and it is easy for Alice to find it. She easily discovered an abnormal magic mirror divination. When she went deep into it, Alice saw a dim room with several girls in it.

She didn't know all the girls inside. In fact, there were only two girls inside that Alice was familiar with. One was Selena, whom she was studying, and the other was Klein's sister Melissa.

Alice secretly noted this matter and waited for the development of the matter.

The girl named Selena is holding a mirror in her hand, which is not wrong considering they are probably playing mirror divination.

What was really wrong was the scene in the mirror. Alice saw the red-haired girl standing in the mirror. Her whole body appeared with a cold expression. Something was wrong at first glance.

"When will I be able to meet a romantic and handsome gentleman this time?" At this time, a girl whom Alice didn't know took a sip of wine, blushing and mustering up her courage in the eyes of everyone who was teasing her. said.

Selena coughed twice, rubbed the back of the mirror seriously and said:

"Mirror Mirror, tell me, when will the gentleman in Yunina's heart appear?"

After saying it three times, she picked up the mirror and put it in front of her.

A girl wearing a sky blue lace dress, with long naturally curly brown hair, and some baby fat on her face suddenly leaned forward and looked at the mirror.

Alice was stunned for a moment, then turned her attention to the girl, thoughtfully.

Did she see it?

Alice continued to look, and the girl with brown curly hair leaned back suddenly, as if she was startled. Alice saw that her face was pale, and her undulating chest also revealed her rapid breathing.

Alice nodded thoughtfully, then looked at Selina. The girl didn't see anything unusual, and said with a sweet smile:

"The Gentleman of Unina will appear on the second Sunday half a year later..."

In the playful voice, Alice saw the girl with long brown curly hair stand up tremblingly and stumble towards the door.

What was she going to do... Alice frowned. Before she could think about the result, the girl came back again. Alice blinked and continued to read.

Alice's attention had completely shifted to the girl with brown curly hair. After watching the girl fidget for a while, she suddenly stood up and said:

"Selena, I, I have a surprise for you, here you go, go out with me."

"Really? Didn't you give me a birthday gift?" Selina put the mirror back and stood up in surprise.

So she looks pretty normal... Alice glanced at it and remembered that she had missed the honorific part of the magic mirror divination. She wanted to turn it over, but hesitated.

No, she probably said it in Hermes...

Will the names seen in divination be noticed? Alice couldn't tell, but she hadn't forgotten Adam's glance through the prophetic dream. If there was another way, she didn't want to try it.

"The surprise is, there won't be any, there won't be any signs." The girl with long brown curly hair continued with acting skills that Alice could see. (End of chapter)
