Amidst the shock, another question surfaced in the mind of The Hanging Man, Alger.
Since Mr. Fool had already foreseen it, why did "He" point out that the incident at Bansy Harbor is related to Rose Redemption and King of Angels Medici?
Did "He" deliberately tell us?
Does "He" wish to spread the news through us?
His target is King of Angels Medici? No, it's more likely that it's the True Creator!
Mr. Fool has repeatedly foiled the True Creator's plans in the past, and this time will likely be no exception … The term "Rose Redemption" appeared in the abandoned temple of the True Creator, and it was created by King of Angels Medici and Ouroboros. Clearly, it has a deep connection with the True Creator …
Bansy Harbor only has us, the Church of the Storm. Mr. Fool's true target is me?
The Hanging Man, Alger, vaguely understood something.
Then, he acutely noticed another problem.
The last time The World mentioned that something major would happen in Baekeland, it was immediately confirmed by Mr. Fool. Later on, it involved the awakening of the Primordial Demoness and the descent of the True Creator. This time, his mention of the anomaly in Bansy Harbor also received a response from Mr. Fool, revealing the secret hidden in ancient Binsy, allowing Rose Redemption and King of Angels Medici to appear in front of the members of the Tarot … Isn't this too much of a coincidence?
Yes, the information The World previously mentioned was related to Baekeland. This was the first time it involved matters at sea, and Mr. Fool had mentioned last week that his adorer had no choice but to leave Baekeland because of the Great Smog. The two matched.
So, The World is actually Mr. Fool's adorer? No, it should be the representative of all "His" Blessed in the Tarot, helping Mr. Fool complete some matters that "He" couldn't do directly. Of course, the Blessed would also use this gathering to trade items and knowledge to achieve the goal of improving themselves. This could be considered Mr. Fool's nurturing of them.
On careful thought, this guess is very likely correct. At the very least, The World has never gathered Rosell's diary to exchange for knowledge or intelligence from Mr. Fool … As a Blessed, this is his duty. He has already submitted it in private!
From this conclusion, some of The World's deliberate questions and contradictory behavior were to conceal his identity as a Blessed. This matched his experience and craftiness.
Mr. Fool's organization of the Tarot Gathering, apart from hiding the intention of secretly reviving and unsealing step by step, also has the intention of using us to interfere in certain matters. This can be seen from the composition of the members. Upper-Class nobles, Beyonders at the level of the Church's bishops, survivors of the Forsaken Land of the Gods, students of the House of Abraham, adult vampires. Each of them represents a faction or a circle, a channel.
Many thoughts flashed through his mind. Not only was Alger not depressed by his own guesses, but he was also somewhat excited. To him, the unknown of Mr. Fool's motives was the most terrifying thing. Having a preliminary understanding of what "He" wanted to do, he could effectively avoid risks and use this to improve himself.
As long as The Fool wants to use us to do something, he will definitely give us certain benefits. This is what I'm looking forward to … Otherwise, I don't know when I'll see the hope of becoming a demigod … Heh, World, you definitely didn't expect that I've already seen through your disguise … Alger's fear eased as he began to think about how to use the information from Bansy Harbor.
It was impossible for him to directly report the information as it would arouse suspicion. He had to patiently wait for an opportunity to be appreciated by the upper echelons and be rewarded without being monitored.
Audrey could tell that Mr. The Hanging Man had gone through such a psychological process, but she didn't expect him to come up with so many thoughts and guesses in such a short period of time.
And from Mr. Fool's words, she was delighted to learn that Rose Redemption was a secret organization established by a portion of Kings of Angels. It had a certain relationship with the True Creator.
At the same time, she also vaguely sensed something odd about The World. She discovered that this member of the organization, whose emotions were the hardest to read, was always involved in major matters. He was always able to obtain very important information, and he was constantly selling formulas, ingredients, and characteristics. It was as though he could hunt a Beyonder every week or two!
He left Baekeland and went out to sea? Or is it a rumor he heard in Baekeland? Should I tell this information to the Church? Hmm, Mr. The Hanging Man has a close relationship with the Church of the Storm. If he does it, the effects will be better, and there won't be any problems … Audrey suppressed the thought of prying and asked curiously, "Honorable Mr. Fool, what's the title of King of Angels Medici?
"Honorable Mr. Fool, what's the title of King of Angels Medici? Or should I say, what pathway does' He 'belong to?"
Klein leaned back in his chair and chuckled.
"Red Priest."
Red Priest? Which pathway is that? It sounds very close to the Dark Emperor. Could it be another Sequence 0 title? Justice, Audrey thought excitedly and pleasantly.
Red Priest … Sun silently recited the term and realized that there were no corresponding records in the history of the City of Silver.
Or maybe it's because I didn't read enough and only received general education … he thought regretfully.
Magicians Fors and Emlyn listened as though they were listening to a story. They were also rather interested in such information.
The only problem is that I can't brag about it to others or write it in the novel! Fors felt a wave of regret.
Mr. The Hanging Man will likely report it to the higher-ups. I hope he doesn't delay it for too long … With his shrewdness, he might've already noticed some of the problems with The World and grasped the relationship between him and The Fool. Thankfully, from a long time ago, I've deliberately set up The World's character to overlap with Sherlock Moriarty's, giving him the identity of a Blessed. Mr. The Hanging Man can at most sense this, but he can't imagine that The World is actually a fake person … The Fool Klein stroked his chin and said with a smile,
"Continue."
Seeing that Mr. Fool didn't mention the previous topic, Emlyn, who had extricated himself from his messianic emotions, began to face the problem of reality.
That was the lack of money!
Regardless, he had never considered selling those dolls. He only told himself that he had to scrimp in the future. It would take half a year or even a year before he could be rewarded with a new doll. Only then could he buy a new set of clothes for the ones he already had.
Apart from that, the only way he could think of to earn money was to sell some medicine with magical effects, but this could easily bring hidden dangers to the race hidden in Baekeland.
This is the Ancestor's arrangement. Logically speaking, Lord Nibbs should provide the corresponding help, but Mr. Fool requested me to keep it a secret. As a savior who carries the burden of advancing in the darkness, I can't take the initiative to reveal it … After thinking for a few seconds, Emlyn tersely acknowledged and cleared his throat.
"Everyone, I have a question.
"Here's the thing. If a powerhouse arranges for you to investigate something, and although you have successfully obtained the information, you are unable to report it to that powerhouse due to certain reasons, how are you to continue obtaining support from that powerhouse?"
After saying that, Emlyn suddenly felt that such actions were a little shameful.
Th-this sounds like a traitor … No, I'm doing this for the continuation of the entire Sanguine. For this, I have to abandon my reputation and bear the burden of puzzlement. When this matter is over and the truth is revealed, they will be touched by me … Emlyn quickly eased his feelings.
At this moment, Audrey, Magicians Fors, Sun, and company cast their gazes at Alger. To them, Mr. The Hanging Man had rich experience in this aspect and was the best teacher.
The Fool Klein thought so too.
The Hanging Man Alger swept a glance at The Moon and chuckled.
"It's very simple, but you have to bear a certain amount of risk."
Emlyn subconsciously denied it.
"It's not me!"
The Hanging Man chuckled in response.
"Let's say it's you."
He continued to describe:
"You will slowly show some abnormalities in your daily life, allowing that powerhouse to sense that something is wrong with you.
"He will have two choices. One is to directly interrogate you, but this will easily cut off the clues. The second is to inadvertently provide you with help, allowing you to conduct a deeper investigation before sending someone to monitor you.
"I think the second possibility is the most likely. The risk you need to bear is how to not expose the information you wish to hide under surveillance."
That's possible? Actually, it won't be exposed. Every time I'm in the Tarot, I'll be resting in the Harvest Church. There's nothing abnormal on the surface, and the sacrificial items and the bestowment ritual are things that can be shown to Lord Nibbs and the others. It will allow them to guess that I've established a certain connection with Mr. Fool, but they won't be able to imagine that I've already joined a secret gathering … Very good, I'll take the initiative to ask Baron Wymandy about the City of Silver while studying history! Emlyn's eyes lit up as he came up with an idea.
He then recalled something and turned to The Hanging Man.
"Didn't you ask last week how to make everyone on a ship fall asleep at the same time?
It's effective and doesn't have a pungent smell. Even on the deck, directly smelling it will cause you to fall unconscious. Of course, it's best you choose a night without any wind. Also, the target can't have a premonition of danger, and their physiques can't be too muscular. Beyonders who are famous for their bodies among Sequence 9 are the limits.
"It can create a deep sleep that lasts more than three hours. After that, the effects will constantly decrease.
"A hundred pounds a can. Give me an additional thirty pounds."
The Hanging Man thought about the situation of the sailors on the ghost ship and didn't bargain.
"Alright."
He wanted to establish a certain image in front of The Moon in preparation for the huge deal that would follow. He had once considered using a Slumber Charm, but that required him to chant the activation incantation. It would make the sailors sense that something was amiss and later suspect something.
As the exchange came to an end, Klein tapped the surface of the long mottled table and smiled leisurely.
"I can already foresee that everyone will have a new look next week.
"That's all for this gathering."
"Thank you for your blessings." Audrey was the first to stand up and bid farewell with gratitude.
With Mr. Fool's words, she felt a little more confident about consuming the Psychiatrist potion.
As the Magicians and company repeated the same words, figures disappeared from the palace, and the world above the gray fog returned to its eternal silence.
