Good question … The Fool Klein praised inwardly as he expressed the Red Angel evil spirit's explanation in his own words:
"The seven deities all wish for a Black Emperor, but 'They' don't have a unified opinion on who should be the Black Emperor.
"When George III successfully obtained that ticket through secret preparations, the seven deities could only tacitly agree to it, regardless of whether 'He' acknowledged 'Him.'"
Is that so … Apart from the absent Emlyn and Sun, the other Tarot members came to a realization. They roughly understood the contradictory behavior of the Churches regarding the Great Smog of Baekeland, the Feysac airship attack, and the assassination of George III.
Immediately following that, a question arose in their minds:
Since George III had already made preparations and had reached the final step of the ritual, and had obtained the tacit approval of the seven deities, why did "He" still fail?
They immediately thought of an answer:
Because Mr. Fool didn't agree.
Hmm … The Church probably didn't seriously stop the destruction of George III's Black Emperor ritual. Perhaps they even provided some help to Mr. Fool's subordinates … Did the Church of the Storm use this chaos to secretly do something? No, they probably wouldn't do too much to hide it … Leonard recalled the various details he had previously sensed and had a general grasp of this matter.
The seven deities tacitly agreed … Mr. Fool voted against it and sent The World and other Blessed to secretly destroy George III's apotheosis ritual … But what does this have to do with the Queen? Why did she discover that German Sparrow had disappeared? Hmm, Black Emperor … The Queen might've participated in the operation led by Mr. Fool and later discovered that her collaborator had disappeared … Cattleya used her rich knowledge and experience to make a guess at the truth of the matter.
And only at this moment did Emlyn connect the dots that he had just discussed and understand what had happened to the situation outside while he was locked up for protection.
George III had plotted to become a god and had obtained the tacit approval of the seven deities. In the end, Mr. Fool had sent a Blessed to destroy the ritual and perish on the spot!
Seeing that everyone was silent, The Fool Klein looked at The Hermit Cattleya.
"Any other questions?"
"Not this time." Cattleya lowered her head even more. She was even more in awe of the great being at the end of the long bronze table than before.
Although she had long known that Mr. Fool had the three angels — Snake of Fate, Death Consul, and Ancient Bane — under him, as well as secretly controlling the Life School of Thought, she never expected that Mr. Fool would have the power to destroy a king's apotheosis ritual in the real World. Furthermore, he had foiled the schemes of a King of Angels, the son of the Creator.
Mr. Fool's hidden forces are even more exaggerated than I imagined … What use do we, the Tarot members, have to "Him"? The power behind it? His own growth? Or was it just a backup plan? Cattleya instantly thought of many things. She momentarily forgot that she was already a Sequence 4 demigod. No matter which organization she was in, she would be considered a member of the upper echelons.
Just the things that Mr. Fool has shown are enough to make a saint lack confidence … Audrey only needed a glance to read Ma 'am Hermit's mental state.
At this moment, The Fool Klein nodded.
"You may begin."
Upon hearing this, Leonard immediately turned to the bottom of the long, mottled table and said to The World,
"How's your situation now?"
Magicians Fors, Judgment Xio, Audrey, and the other Tarot members also cast their gazes over, expressing their concern for The World, German Sparrow's situation.
From their point of view, Mr. World, who was sandwiched between Mr. Fool and Angel of Time Amon as a tool of war, wasn't in a good situation. He was already considered lucky to be alive.
Sensing the concern, Klein controlled the fake World and chuckled hoarsely.
"It's not too bad, but it's not too good either.
"Thanks to Mr. Fool's blessings, I finally obtained a certain secret from Amon, but I haven't completely escaped from 'Him.'"
Without waiting for the others to react, he continued, "You're right.
"I'm now in a rather troublesome predicament.
"I relied on Mr. Fool's powers to enter a certain concealed state and temporarily escaped from Amon. However, if I were to dispel this state and return to reality, I can only appear where my original body is. And Amon might very well still be lingering nearby.
"I want to try to find a solution first. I wonder if any of you have any objections?"
On the surface, German Sparrow's meaning was very clear. He wanted to rely on himself first, and if it really didn't work out, he would seek help from Mr. Fool.
And his actual meaning was essentially the same: First find a way to bypass the restrictions. If it really didn't work out, consider surviving as an undead.
Solution? The Hanging Man Alger and company suddenly felt a little excited, because the suggestions they provided would be used to fight against a King of Angels.
If they were to be used and used, it would be something they could brag about for the rest of their lives!
Audrey was just about to say something in excitement, but just as she was about to say it, she shrank it back. This was because she knew that she couldn't give random suggestions. It might cause Mr. World to be captured by Amon.
Xio thought about it seriously and realized that she couldn't give any useful suggestions. All she could do was choose to watch and learn from the sidelines.
"Does it have to be where your original body is? Do you have any blood or hair stored elsewhere? "The Hanging Man Alger thought for a moment and gave a suggestion in the form of a question.
The Fool Klein thought for a moment and made the fake World shake his head.
"No."
Compared to his original body, one or two vials of blood was too little.
With this in mind, Klein suddenly had an idea.
Perhaps I can use those two vials of blood as materials and combine them with something else, using the Life Alchemy method to create a new body!
There are two problems. First, Life Alchemy requires the participation of a Spirit Body; otherwise, the final product might not be considered my body. Second, I don't know any demigods who can complete Life Alchemy. The only one who's close to it is Frank Lee … In the end, I became a Mushroom Man? Then, it's better for me to be an undead … As Klein thought about it, he nearly shivered.
After The Hanged Man's suggestion was rejected, Cattleya began from her knowledge of mysticism and deliberated as she asked, "What's the matter?
"Do you have a Sequence 3 Sealed Artifact?"
"Why do you ask?" The World German Sparrow returned with a question.
"A Sequence 3 Sealed Artifact can respond to prayers within a certain range. You can make use of this," Cattleya explained simply.
Klein roughly understood what was on Ma 'am Hermit's mind.
"Are you talking about Descent?"
"Yes, get someone to set up a descent ritual at the periphery of the range, and you should be able to respond while in a concealed state." Cattleya first glanced at Sun and described the exact plan before asking in enlightenment, "Do you really have a Sequence 3 Sealed Artifact?"
She had originally wanted to get The World to seek Mr. Fool's bestowment.
"I'm already at Sequence 3," Klein controlled the fake World and gave a brief answer.
"…" The Tarot members were rendered speechless.
They knew very well that Mr. World had advanced to Sequence 4 at the end of June and become a demigod.
And now, it was December of the same year!
The Queen once said that I used the blood of the Snake of Fate to advance, making it easier for me to become a Sequence 3 Clairvoyant than others … Besides, the Tarot has given me a lot of precious mysticism knowledge, allowing me to digest the potion to a large extent … But even so, I still need more than half a year before I have a chance of reaching Sequence 3 … Cattleya subconsciously looked around and realized that the other Tarot members were in a half-numb and half-envious state.
She sighed silently.
"Is my suggestion useful, Mr. World?"
The World German Sparrow shook his head.
"In that state, there's a great limit to responding."
Once he chose to descend, it meant that he would have to start his life as an undead, no, as a ghost.
Perhaps, I can combine the two methods … Yes, I can use the method of praying to The Fool, Sea God, or Magic Protector to descend to leave the Forsaken Land of the Gods, but there's no rush. It's too easy to expose the truth … The Fool Klein thoughtfully made World look at Leonard.
Leonard instantly understood what he meant and replied, "Yes."
"I'll go back and look through the information to see if there are any other ideas."
Obviously, his real intention was to go back and ask the old man. The old man was an angel who had a considerable understanding of Amon. Maybe he could come up with a suggestion that no one else could think of.
This was the answer Klein wanted. Following that, he made The World's German Sparrow say,
"Alright."
The discussion of escaping came to an end for the time being. The World's German Sparrow looked at Magicians Fors.
"Help me ask the House of Abraham if there are any Worms of Star that haven't completely lost their spirituality. If there are, what do I need to exchange for them?"
Worms of Star were high-level spirituality materials. Most of the time, they didn't contain any Beyonder characteristics. Therefore, their spirituality would experience an irreversible loss. Without any special means, it was difficult to preserve them for too long.
Worms of Star … Magicians Fors was taken aback for a moment before nodding.
"Alright."
After receiving a reply, Klein made The World cast his gaze at Cattleya.
"If Miss Magicians isn't able to trade for a Worm of Star from the House of Abraham, I would like to entrust you with a mission."
"What mission?" Cattleya asked with interest.
The World's German Sparrow smiled.
"Hunting the Aurora Order's Saint of Secrets, Boutis."
