The new members' thoughts

As soon as he appeared at the familiar long bronze table, Angel noticed something was wrong:

The long bronze table, Gray Fog surrounded by Tarot Club members, and the temple like a giant's residence gave her a different feeling than before.

Before, Gray Fog was Gray Fog, the temple was the temple, and Mr. Fool was like the "connection" between the two, but now his relationship with the entire Gray Fog is more harmonious, as if the whole person is integrated into it, making it difficult to figure out, and you can only feel that his breath is everywhere.

If this mysterious existence is God from ancient times and is now trying to return to the living world, then his strength has undoubtedly recovered a lot!

Thinking of the ancient gods, the strangely named "Sefirah" appeared in Angel's mind, and he thought of his mysterious connection with "City of Calamity".

When I am promoted to Sequence 3, maybe my relationship with that "Sefirah" will also change. Oldest One didn't even know what happened when he was resurrected, but then he had the memory of entering that city, and he has been able to continue exploring recently... Angel felt a sense of longing and enlightenment in his heart.

She suspected that this mysterious Grey Fog Space was also the appearance of some kind of "Sefirah", so that it could match Mr. "Fool", an ancient god who was regaining his strength.

She couldn't think about it anymore, it was blasphemy... She gathered her thoughts, her eyes wandered, and she made a new discovery.

There were more people attending the party this time, and there were two more people at once!

She looked unabashedly at the two "newcomers" sitting at the end of the men's and women's queues. She was not worried that her behavior was too abrupt, because everyone did the same.

The man should be younger, taller than Hanged Man, and almost the same as Mr. Sun... He has black hair and green eyes, and his sitting posture is a bit casual. Well, he noticed it and adjusted it to a more upright sitting posture that he was not used to...

Angel first looked at the new member of the men's queue, and soon felt a little familiar with Gray Fog's covered face.

In view of the battle and encounter that took place at West Bayam last Tuesday, and the fact that Mr. Fool was suspected of providing some help at that time, Angel quickly determined the true identity of the other party:

Leonard Mitchell!

Feeling her gaze, Leonard quickly glanced at all the members and turned this way, then froze.

Oops, he also recognized me. The Gray Fog here can only hide my appearance, but the hair, eye color, body shape and other features are not secrets at all in the eyes of him who just met me... Angel looked away with some embarrassment and looked at the new female member on the same side as him.

Tarot Club started recruiting underage girls?

Seeing the figure that only reached the height of her chest and was almost blocked under the bronze table, the first thought that came to Angel's mind was a bit ridiculous. Then, a female image with the same characteristics overlapped with the other person in her memory.

Then, she noticed that this "girl" looked at "Magician" beside her from time to time, and she obviously knew this member who was already considered an "old man" of Tarot Club.

This time, she recognized the other party's identity without even thinking: Xio Derecha.

She and Fors are friends. Perhaps the latter recommended this Bounty Hunter to Mr. "Fool"?

Angel thought to himself, and when Audrey took the initiative to stand up and say hello to everyone, the routine greetings followed.

At this time, she also noticed that Short Bounty Hunter naturally stood up and saluted Fool along with everyone, just a little later than "Magician" next to her. Leonard sat there in a daze until everyone was facing the top of the long table, then stood up in a hurry, pushing the high-backed chair under him backward with his calves, making a harsh metal friction sound.

Including Mr. "Fool", everyone's eyes were focused on Leonard, making him lower his head in shame.

Oh, this gentleman does not exist in Fors's introduction, which means that he is also a "newcomer", but Fors introduced me to Tarot Club's matters in detail, including the need for " Maintain absolute respect for Mr. Fool", and the same should be done for members with prominent status in reality such as "Empress" and "The World". The most important thing is that you must stand up and salute at the beginning of the meeting!

Opposite him, Xio Derecha murmured to himself, gaining his first sense of superiority since coming to this strange venue.

No wonder Fors said to talk less, do less and watch more, so as not to show timidity... She immediately understood her friend's advice more and respectfully bowed to God, the person at the head of the long table who had saved her life just a few days ago.

"Good afternoon, everyone, these two are 'Star' and 'Judgment'. Please introduce yourselves."

"Fool" Klein said calmly, his eyes always locked on "Star" Leonard.

He couldn't hold back his laughter until his stomach started to hurt!

Leonard, who felt a little uneasy about being the center of attention, frowned, always feeling that Mr. "Fool" paid special attention to him.

Maybe the code name "Star" is a bit feminine. Actually, I want to choose "Chariot"... He muttered, using the help of everyone to introduce themselves, secretly observing the other members and giving them more recognizable labels.

"Empress", haha, she is indeed Angel, and I found that I and "Judgment" Miss, who seemed to be only fourteen or fifteen years old, were both sitting at the end of the queue. This means that she who is closest to Mr. "Fool" is an initial member of this party. No wonder Klein can be tricked into here...

"Hanged Man" looks to be in his thirties, and the color of his hair reminds me of several "Mandated Punishers" I know well. Maybe he is also "Sailor" Pathway.

"Justice" looks like an aristocratic girl who lives a carefree life, and her clothes are very tasteful, but this may be a disguise. I also deliberately did not wear the more recognizable windbreaker...

Leonard looked over one by one, and finally his eyes rested on the "world" whose voice was low and hoarse, and only read his code name without any follow-up.

Klein... Why is he sitting alone at the end of the long table, as if he is isolated? Is this because of his special status? Because he has close ties with Dwayne Dantès, "Death Consul" and other Fool believers, is he equivalent to the agent of these "Extra Personnel"?

Thoughts came to mind one after another. Leonard slowly looked away until Ms. "Hermit" who was directly opposite him said:

"Dear Mr. Fool, I did not receive the new Emperor Roselle's Diary this week."

Roselle's Diary? That Roselle Gustav? Are his notes that are so illegible that even Old Man doesn't know the contents a diary?

Leonard suddenly reacted and secretly looked at the others and found that they had no special reaction to this. "Empress" even echoed apologetically, saying that she had not found a new diary either.

Roselle's diary is the "currency" of this party, or a special sacrifice dedicated to Mr. "Fool"... He immediately put a new "label" on it and kept it in his heart.

He remembered that there were more than ten pages of Roselle's Diary's rubbings in Saint Samuel Cathedral's database!

And with his authority, it is not difficult to read and forcibly write down those mysterious symbols.

Discovering that "Star" showed a mysterious smile behind Gray Fog, Klein smiled with satisfaction. He deliberately set aside this period of silence to guide the two new members to discover the new Roselle's Diary around them.

It seemed that Leonard had already thought about it. Hugh Miss's expression did not change. "Magician" should have told her these things in advance. Since their social circles overlapped relatively, there might not be any new gains... He thought about it and lowered his voice and ordered:

"You guys go ahead."

Continue? Is it a mutual transaction or an exchange of information... Leonard, who was still impressed by Mr. "Fool"'s introduction, had a new question in his mind and lowered his body slightly, wanting to see the situation first.

Unfortunately, this week's Tarot Club seemed to have nothing that everyone wanted to buy or sell. Everyone's eyes kept crossing, and finally they quietly gathered on the two new members.

Feeling that a strange atmosphere was spreading towards Leonard, Angel coughed lightly, attracted everyone's attention, and said softly:

"Do you have any clues about 'Fountain of Youth'?"

This melodious voice eased the embarrassment at the long bronze table. Everyone was silent for a moment. "Hermit" Cattleya was the first to answer:

"This is one of the widely spread legends of sea treasures, but most people think it is just a legend... You should remember what 'King of Immortality' did."

She was hinting to me that it was just Agalito's trap... Angel said after careful consideration:

"The news he spread is false, but it does not mean that 'Fountain of Youth' does not exist in the world... That is one of the Potion materials I need."

Since the Potion formula requires it, it must exist in the world - this is the hidden meaning in Angel's answer.

But "Hermit", "Hanged Man", and "Justice" read more information from it:

"Empress" Miss, who was promoted to Demigod less than three months ago, is already seeking materials from Sequence 3 Potion!

When I first met her, she was still selling the "assassin" Potion, asking Mr. "Hanged Man" to provide a channel for making fake identities. At most, she was just Beyonder of Low Sequence. It had just been a year, and she was about to become Beyonder of Sequence 3?

Audrey's heart was like a turbulent sea, and even the quality of "Spectator" could not stop her from secretly looking at the seemingly weak woman next to her.

The only Beyonder of Sequence 3 she had ever met was Archbishop Saint Anthony of Saint Samuel Cathedral, who had been managing Backlund Diocese when she was born.

Your peers have all become Demigod, you are just a Sequence 6, keep working hard, Audrey, otherwise, even Susie will catch up with you... She quietly clenched her fists under the table and cheered herself up. After watching "Hanged Man" and "Hermit", who have rich navigation experience, discuss a few words, each accepted the commission from "Empress" and agreed to go back and look for clues about "Fountain of Youth" through their own channels.

I see, this link is an opportunity for everyone to issue commissions to each other... But Angel is actually seeking promotion again. Is she going to be promoted from "Unaging" to Sequence 2 and become the real Angel?

Leonard took a deep breath and looked at the figure sitting next to Fool, as if he had met her for the first time.

But he soon realized that this meant that the level of the Tarot Club transaction was quite high, and many of his needs might not need to be accumulated and contributed within the church, but could be solved here.

With this in mind, he looked around and proactively said:

"I need to buy a Mystical Item."

For the third time, everyone's eyes were focused on him again.
