Queen Mystic's powers are all very dreamy. No, it's like a fairy tale … Klein glanced at the fountain pen that was writing on its own and took out a pen and paper from his pocket. He wrote the incantation to summon his messenger and noted that he needed to pay a gold coin for every letter.
Following that, he handed the piece of paper to Bernadette and took the piece of paper from her. He quickly scanned through it.
"An invisible creature that roams the upper realm, a strange Spirit Body that is friendly to humans, a messenger that belongs solely to Bernadette Gustav …"
There's a certain difference from a standard incantation, but it's essentially the same … Yes, Queen Mystic must've deliberately made it this way to prevent others from testing out the summoning incantation. By using the connection between the messenger and the contractor, "She" can lock onto "Her" … It's fine for me. My messenger is an angel. Only "He" can threaten others, and no one can threaten "Her." Even if "He" encounters Zaratul, "He" should have the ability to protect himself … Klein mumbled inwardly as he shook the paper in his hand, producing a scarlet flame.
Seeing the paper turn to black ashes in the flames, Queen Mystic Bernadette asked in an emotionless voice, "What are your thoughts on stopping George III?
"What are your thoughts on stopping George III?"
Klein had long considered it as he deliberately slowed down.
"First, don't be rash. Don't take risks that you can't bear. Don't harm the innocent."
If it wasn't for Queen Mystic Bernadette mentioning that she hated war and hurting innocent people, Klein wouldn't have said so directly to prevent himself from exposing his weakness. He would've changed his method and used a gentler and more roundabout method to achieve his goal.
Upon hearing this, Bernadette nodded slightly in agreement.
"Then, there are only three ideas. One is to destroy the ritual at the critical moment, causing George III's advancement to fail. The second is to attempt an assassination ahead of time, preventing 'Him' from holding the ritual." Klein deliberately didn't mention the third idea as he first analyzed the feasibility of the first two. "Assassination is an extremely slim choice. George III, or rather, the one who will become the Black Emperor, should already be at the Sequence 1. He's not someone we can deal with.
Even if "He" hasn't advanced to Sequence 1, "He" must've done "acting" ahead of time. Once "He" completes the ritual and consumes the potion, "He" will be able to quickly digest it and lay the foundation for the future.
"Of course, even if it's an extremely unlikely situation, that person will definitely be a Sequence Sequence 2. And the Augustus family definitely doesn't lack Grade 0 Sealed Artifacts. Together with the surrounding protection, there's no chance of us succeeding."
Here, Klein changed the way he addressed George III from "he" to "he."
Bernadette listened calmly and thought for a few seconds as though she was making an assessment.
"As long as we can create a good enough opportunity, it's possible to assassinate a Sequence 2, but at least one of us will die, or both of us."
What she meant was that the Grade 0 Sealed Artifact she wielded was sufficiently powerful, magical, and terrifying. However, to fully unleash it, the price would be huge.
If that's the case, there's really a chance. As I lied just now, if I really had to use all my strength, I can still seek help from Will Auceptin, Pallez Zoroast, and Miss Messenger. I can get "Them" to use the Yesterday Once More charm to restore "Them" to their normal states in a short period of time. The problem is that I don't know how much of a price I'll have to pay, what kind of changes it will cause to the situation, and if it will involve Kings of Angels like Ouroboros and Amon …
If only Mr. Aztec had woken up. With the four angels and Queen Mystic's Grade 0 Sealed Artifact, as long as "He" created a chance, even a Sequence 1 would be able to target it. Of course, the chances of failure are extremely high. After all, there's no way to last long … Klein's heart stirred when he heard that, but he didn't discuss it further.
It wasn't that he wasn't willing to be honest in the cooperation, nor was it that he didn't trust Queen Mystic, but that Will Auceptin and Pallez Zoroast were being pursued. Once their whereabouts were exposed, it was very likely that "They" would perish. This was a development that Klein absolutely didn't wish to see.
He said vaguely,
"If there's really only assassination left, I can seek the help of at least two angels."
This referred to Death Consul Aztec Eggers and Snake of Fate Will Auceptin, whom Bernadette knew of. The latter had guessed it from the drop of Mythical Creature blood.
Bernadette was taken aback, which was a rare sight.
"This is that person's will?"
Without The Fool's consent, how could "His" Blessed invite an angel to help "Him."
"He" tacitly agreed to it, "Klein said the absolute truth.
Queen Mystic's blue eyes immediately turned a little deeper. She didn't say another word as she slowly nodded.
Klein steered the topic back on track.
"Destroying the ritual might be relatively simple, but it has to be done at the most critical moment. Otherwise, to George III, it would only be delaying his ascension to godhood for a period of time. "He" has already obtained the tacit approval of the deities, so "He" doesn't need to worry about anything. Even if the mausoleum is destroyed, it wouldn't take long for "He" to rebuild it.
"And destroying it at the critical moment will cause" His "advancement to fail, causing" Him "to lose control and turn into a monster. No deity would allow such a creature to wreak havoc in the real world." He "would definitely descend and obliterate it. The problem is that with a King of Angels' warning and help, George III wouldn't take this lightly. He would definitely arrange for the strictest protection. The difficulty might be slightly lower than directly assassinating" Him. "
"This requires us to gather information as soon as possible and find a place that can be used.
"And be it the first or second train of thought, it's best if you advance to Sequence 2 ahead of time and become a Sage."
Bernadette nodded slightly, indicating that she understood.
She then said,
"What's the third train of thought?"
Klein fell silent for a few seconds.
"If the ritual had succeeded back then, the Emperor would've advanced to Sequence 0. Then, 'He' would still have a chance of resurrection. As long as we can find the setup left behind by the Emperor before George III ascends to the divine throne and make 'Him' return, George III's scheme will fail."
He didn't use "he" to address Rosell like Bernadette did to prevent himself from exposing his identity.
Queen Mystic's eyes clearly flickered for a moment before turning deep and restrained.
Her lips moved slightly.
"I'll hand the selected diary pages to Cattleya."
Klein didn't dwell on the matter as he smiled.
"Actually, there's a fourth train of thought."
Bernadette twitched her eyebrows slightly as she expressed her puzzlement.
"That is to do nothing and allow George III to hold the ritual and attempt to become a god, waiting for 'Him' to fail." Klein gave a self-deprecating laugh. "On the Sequence pathway, the higher the chances of failure are."
This was actually the truth. Even with the "script" written by Amon's brother and the various possibilities of success, even if George III perfectly digested the potion from before, the chances of "Him" advancing to godhood wouldn't exceed 50%.
Of course, Klein was only teasing himself by saying that.
Queen Mystic Bernadette didn't immediately respond as she seriously looked at German Sparrow for a few seconds.
"The feeling you give off this time is different from the previous few times."
"This is my psychiatrist's suggestion." Klein smiled, describing himself as a serious mental patient.
Bernadette didn't say anything else as she retracted her gaze and looked at the pen lying on the table.
"Then, let's begin gathering the corresponding information and maintain correspondence."
Having said that, she paused for a moment before continuing. Her gaze didn't move.
"Actually, I'm wondering if he's already in the preliminary stages of resurrection, but he's still trying to find his past self … I'm not sure what kind of details are hidden in the Black Emperor's resurrection, nor do I know if he really chose the Black Emperor in the end …"
Bernadette's voice gradually became ethereal, with an indescribable feeling.
As Klein listened, he suddenly understood what Queen Mystic was thinking and what she was hoping for.
She suspected that The Fool was the resurrected Rosell. She suspected that this emperor had fooled everyone back then and had no intention of switching to the Black Emperor pathway. Instead, he had chosen another path, resulting in him searching for past diary entries and Cards of Blasphemy to find "Himself."
Unfortunately, I'm just Uncle Zhou next door … Klein originally wanted to make a witty remark inwardly, but his emotions gradually settled down, making it difficult for him to force himself to relax.
Without saying a word, he stood up, bowed, wore his hat, and left the room.
After closing the door to the Golden Theater and taking two steps forward, Klein suddenly heard a serene and melodious melody.
This melody was ethereal and had a hint of sadness to it.
Klein stopped and listened for a few seconds before turning back to the hall and leaving with Flaming Jump.
…
In the City of Silver, a team was gathered at the city gate and was about to set off.
This was a team heading to Afternoon Town in preparation to explore the Giant King's Court.
Derrick Berg stood in the middle. He was the second shortest, and he held a bronze cross with spikes.
To his left and right were Joshua and Haim. They were prepared to receive the Unshadowed Crucifix at any moment to prevent Derrick's Beyonder characteristic from being purged.
Such a Sealed Artifact required three people to take turns wielding it to resist the negative effects.
As he lowered his head to size up the Creator's relic, Derrick suddenly felt that someone was watching him. He subconsciously looked up and realized that it was a member of the six-member council, Shepherd Elder Lovia.
This shortest lady in the team had silver-gray, slightly curly hair. She was looking at the ancient mottled Unshadowed Crucifix with her light gray eyes. Her gaze was burning.
Sensing Derrick's gaze, the corners of the Shepherd Elder's mouth twitched as she revealed an indescribable smile.
"This is the Lord's item."
Derrick shivered for some baffling reason as he heard Chief Colin Iliad say, "Let's go.
"Let's go."
