Above the Gray Fog.

While [The Magician] Fors was thrown into disarray, the other members were also shocked by the news.

The God of Blood and Shadows? A name I've never heard of... Is he New Life, Concealment being, or a new disguise for some evil god...? Also, why are it crew members under Mr. Temperance who are proselytizing...?

[Justice] Audrey was filled with surprise.

She hesitated for a moment, then asked softly:

"[Temperance] Sir, are you aware that your men are proselytizing?"

"Of course I know."

Luther replied calmly, "Because I'm the one who made them do it."

Wow!

The atmosphere around the Bronze Long Table instantly changed.

Although everyone had already guessed when the Hanged Man shared the information, they still couldn't help but feel surprised after Temperance confirmed it himself.

This most ferocious member of the Tarot Club usually maintains Indifference and contemptuous attitude towards all kinds of deities, seemingly completely disbelieving in the "God loves the world" rhetoric—yet secretly, he worships a Concealment being of dubious origin, possibly an evil god? What's wrong with Mr. [Temperance]...? Has he finally succumbed to the Corrosion of this evil god, becoming a Distortion fanatic? Or was he actually a deeply hidden cult follower from the very beginning?

"Justice," Audrey thought worriedly, but she couldn't help but steal a glance at Mr. Fool.

Following suit, as if seeking help, the others also turned to the head of the long table. Everyone had the same thought: Mr. Fool, what's going on?

The mysterious figure shrouded in Fog remained seated at the head of the Bronze Long Table, its posture calm and composed.

Why are you all staring at me? I can never stop him...

Klein thought to himself with a sigh, "That Luther guy is really brave. I, as the Fool, haven't even started to preach publicly yet, but he has already spread the Honorific Name of the Blood God to the Sonia Sea Southern Continent."

Perhaps I can start preparing now? After all, I'm about to advance to Sequence 3... But until then, I should just muddle through for now...

As Klein pondered this, he suddenly Consciousness everyone was still watching him, waiting for the Fool to speak and determine the outcome.

"Hehe..."

He immediately put on his best performance, giving a nonchalant smile as if everything was under his control. At the same time, he was racking his brains, trying to figure out how to express his affirmation of Temperance and the Blood God without losing his composure.

Yes, that's a better way to put it!

After buying himself a few seconds to think with a light laugh, Klein spoke leisurely, "The Blood God and the True Creator are adversaries."

He simply presented a fact; how to analyze it is up to these imaginative members to interpret it themselves.

Really!

Upon hearing this answer, a Hanged Man light flashed in Alger's eyes.

Just as we all have our own powerful backgrounds, Temperance is also influenced by other deities... Moreover, Mr. Fool specifically reminded us that the Blood God and the True Creator are in opposition... The reason Temperance was able to ascend to the Gray Fog was also Mr. Fool's choice—He and the Blood God are in a cooperative relationship, working together to deal with that "Degeneration" Creator!

This is a battle between gods, and I actually witnessed it!

Alger realized this, and his body trembled slightly. He thoroughly enjoyed the feeling; knowing such secrets gave him a sense of pleasure in secretly controlling the world.

The Hanged Man is quite ill...

Audrey thought to herself.

Compared to the Hanged Man, who is obsessed with power struggles, she cares more about the choice of Temperance.

Mr. Temperance has always harbored a deep hatred for the True Creator, and this so-called Blood God is in conflict with that evil god, so it seems quite reasonable for Mr. Temperance to have him as a follower...

Moreover, Mr. Fool's words clearly indicate that he already knew all this and tacitly approved of Mr. Temperance's beliefs... It seems that Mr. Temperance will be alright... Thinking of this, she relaxed a little.

As for the other members, although their understanding differed, they all sensed Mr. Fool's attitude and understood that He did not intend to pursue the matter further.

Luther, who was in the center of everyone's attention, remained calmer than anyone else.

He looked up at the [Hanged Man] and asked:

"What did the Church of Storms say? What is their attitude towards the Blood God?"

If they are intentionally targeting them, Anderson and his team should be reminded to be more careful.

"The Church of Storms's main focus is still on the Feysac fleet."

Alger composed himself and remained calm.

"MI9's response has been quite positive."

[Judgement] Hugh suddenly interjected, and seeing Luther looking over, he explained, "I also have information about the Blood God; they leaked it to me and asked me to investigate."

Luther then looked at the Star, Leonard simply shook his head.

The Church of Storms and the Church of Evernight are resisting the invasion of Feysac; only the Royal Family wants to target me... He sneered and said to the group, "Keep an eye out for me; contact me immediately if you notice anything unusual."

The three nodded in agreement.

Knock knock.

Just then, at the head of the long table, Klein suddenly extended his finger and tapped the tabletop twice. The sound wasn't loud, but everyone instinctively sat up straight.

There's something I need to tell you.

From the head of the Bronze Long Table came the voice of the Fool: "Adam is approaching His divine position. When the world's currents continue to advance according to his predictions, the Advancement Ritual for the 'Visionary' will be complete."

A stir ran through the crowd, all feeling shocked by those words.

The world's trends... Is Mr. Fool referring to this war?

The pinnacle of my Pathway is called "Visionary"... its Advancement Ritual is about influencing the direction of the world...

Audrey was utterly shocked by this.

Originally, the war was only between Loen and Feysac, but as time went on, the Feynapotter Kingdom also declared war on Loen, and the Intis Republic was also stirring... The flames of war are spreading across the entire continent...

"Mr. Fool, are you saying that Adam will be able to ascend smoothly when the entire continent is engulfed in war?" Please remember the only official website for this novel: www. deqixs. org. This is the only website; other websites may be discontinued at any time.

She asked that question.

Klein simply chuckled softly, offering no explanation, but instead raised his hand and said:

Let's call it a day.

"Yes, your will is our standard."

Everyone stood up at the same time and bowed.

"Call!"

A crimson light surged upwards, engulfing everyone's figures.

What a pity, I didn't get to hear Mr. Fool's answer...

Audrey thought with regret.

Her gaze shifted, and she saw a figure with black hair and red eyes opposite her, suddenly realizing that something was amiss.

Hmm? It seems Mr. [Moon] remained silent throughout the entire meeting today... What's wrong with him?
