The First and Last Tarot Club Gathering?

Faced with Luther's sudden outburst, the members of the Tarot Club reacted in various ways.

Before attending the party, everyone had more or less learned about what Mr. Temperance, the Blood Bishop, Alexander Gascoigne had done recently, and their attitudes toward him inevitably changed somewhat.

"Does Mr. Temperance dislike this lady looking at him?"

Although confused, [The Magician] Fors didn't dare question Luther —because the man was simply too terrifying.

News from the sea had already spread throughout Backlund, and in addition to the version given to the general public, the extraordinary world underground also received a more detailed account. Upon learning that the [Blood Bishop] had already gained the strength to kill Demigod, Fors, while filled with awe, also resolved never to be his enemy again.

"Alexander Gascoigne seems to have discovered something."

[Moon] Emlyn, who was able to obtain information from the Sanguine, naturally dared not speak rashly at this time.

What happened?

As for [Sun] Derrick, although he was in City of Silver and unaware of Luther's current situation, he remained silent because he hadn't yet grasped the situation.

Of course, there are still people willing to speak up in times like these.

"[Temperance] Sir, what's wrong? Is something wrong with this lady?"

Just as Alger the Hanged Man had predicted, Audrey, with a strong Consciousness of Justice, took the initiative to speak, breaking the strange atmosphere above the Gray Fog. She asked a question as if out of curiosity, her gaze sweeping back and forth between the two of them.

You're right, something's definitely wrong with her.

Luther sneered.

"."

Cattleya did not answer, but her purple eyes flickered slightly behind the cover of the Gray Fog.

Has he discovered my "Eyes of Mystery Prying"?

Impossible, even Mr. Fool didn't notice.

Just as her thoughts were in turmoil, she saw the red-robed man opposite her already facing the head of the Bronze Long Table, addressing the tall and imposing figure, "Respected Mr. Fool, this is our newest member."

"[The Hermit]."

Although Klein was also curious about the current situation, he remained calm and composed, saying as if he knew everything, "The new member's codename is [The Hermit]."

"[Hermit] Lady, please explain the meaning of the eyes in front of you?"

Luther turned his head to look at the person opposite him and asked in a cold voice.

"I"

Under his icy gaze, Cattleya's heart tightened, and she found herself unable to respond.

Her "Eyes of Mystery Prying" was beyond her control. When she first met the Fool, Mr. Fool said nothing, which gave her a sense of complacency, but she never expected that [Temperance] would reveal it to everyone in public at this moment!

"Mr. Temperance, I don't see anything in front of Ms. Hermit."

At this moment, [the Sun] couldn't help but ask Luther in a low voice.

"Because my Pathway is rather special, and my inspiration is higher, I can see a pair of peculiar eyes without eyelashes floating in front of her."

Luther sneered, "If I'm not mistaken, this is the 'Eyes of Mystery Prying' from the 'Hidden Sage.' With this eye, the [Hermit] should be able to see things more clearly than we can; she might even be able to see our faces clearly."

He had noticed that the eyelashless eyes were moving their gaze methodically as they observed the members through the Gray Fog. This indicated that it was clearly able to see some of the members' features through the Gray Fog.

"What?"

Upon hearing Luther's words, the people present immediately became somewhat flustered.

The most uneasy were Audrey (Justice) and Alger (The Hanged Man). The former was easily identified because of her special identity, while the latter was exposed because he was wearing the priest's robes of the Church of Storms, and as a pirate, he might encounter them.

He really spotted me!

Cattleya grew increasingly uneasy. This unease intensified after the "Fool" gave her a half-smile, half-mocking look. She quickly lowered her head and respectfully spoke:

"Honorable Mr. Fool, I can explain."

"Speak."

Klein remained noncommittal, speaking calmly.

At this moment, there were two items on the table beside him: one was the "Black Emperor" card he already had, and the other was a milky-white scepter slightly longer than his arm. The top of the scepter was inlaid with tiny blue-green gemstones. These gemstones shone, some tinged with darkness, and some glowing with the Dawn.

The scepter exuded a violent aura, as if stirring up waves and Gale. At the same time, it was surrounded by countless points of light, giving people a sacred and majestic oppressive feeling.

A new Sealed Artifact, the "Sea God's Scepter"!

Just as Luther reaped great benefits from his adventures, Klein also made a significant gain this week. He found the deceased Sea God "Kalvetua" and obtained the Beyonder Item generated from its extracted Characteristic —a powerful scepter, which he named the "Sea God's Scepter." With it, Klein can attain the status of the Sea God to a certain extent.

Therefore, when he learned that "Admiral of Stars" Cattleya seemed to be disobeying him, he didn't seem worried at all. At worst, he would strike her with a bolt of lightning to teach her a lesson.

"These eyes of mine were forcibly given to me; I cannot close them on my own."

[The Hermit] Cattleya also noticed the things on the Fool's table, and an indescribable sense of oppression arose in her heart. This feeling was different from the benevolent majesty of the "Queen Mystic" and the crazy indoctrination of the "Hidden Sage". It was more like a kind of spiritual awe.

In plain terms, she was scared.

"Shouldn't you have reported this to Mr. Fool immediately?"

Although [The Hermit] Cattleya offered an explanation, Luther continued to nitpick, "Even I can notice, do you really think He wouldn't? Don't take His kindness for granted."

He was very unhappy about being spied on, so he took advantage of the Fool to put pressure on her.

No, I really didn't notice.

Klein felt a little embarrassed inside. But for the sake of his own image, he maintained a calm smile, as if he understood everything.

I also think this is not good.

[Justice] Audrey, having recovered her composure, spoke with equal seriousness, "[The Hermit] Madam, the Tarot Club is an organization whose purpose is mutual assistance; we should have the most basic respect for one another."

"I understand, everyone. I'm very sorry."

What could Cattleya say but apologize in a low voice?

As a "Admiral of Stars" and a high-ranking member of the "Moses Ascetic Order," she hadn't felt this humble in a long time.

Haha, even that mysterious "Admiral of Stars" has this side to him.

Alger, the Hanged Man, gloated for a second, then turned to the head of the long table, "Honorable Mr. Fool, please decide what to do with her?"

How should this be handled?

Klein was also a bit overwhelmed. Good grief, the new member's first Tarot Club was already ending? Today was her first Tarot Club, and it would also be Tarot Club last?
