Was the "Death Archon" Mr. Fate had mentioned a follower of Mr. Fool?
"Death Archon"... The title alone sounded mysterious and powerful. It had to belong to a High Sequence powerhouse, didn't it?
Audrey, Justice, let her thoughts wander. As for the awkward fact that Qilingus had died at the hands of the Tarot Club, while Mr. Fate, who had joined afterward, belonged to the same organization as Qilingus, she had long since put it out of her mind.
After a moment's hesitation, she couldn't hide her curiosity and asked:
"Mr. Fate, is 'Death Archon' a title? Does it have some special meaning?"
Cyril didn't hide anything, but he didn't go into too much detail, either.
"It refers to an identity, and it's also the name of a Potion for a certain Sequence."
The Hanged Man, Alger, suddenly spoke up. "I've heard of a 'Death Archon.' It was the title given to the rulers of the Balam Empire on the Southern Continent during the Fourth Epoch."
Audrey's eyes widened slightly, surprise showing on her face... A ruler of the Balam Empire in the Fourth Epoch. If someone could live from the Fourth Epoch until now, then he had to be—no, he must be an Angel.
Was this one of Mr. Fool's followers? An Angel active in the world!
The Hanged Man, Alger, had kept his head bowed ever since this topic began, as if out of reverence, or perhaps because he didn't want anyone to see the expression on his face.
At the head of the mottled long table, the expression on Klein's face, hidden beneath the Gray Fog, went somewhat out of control. Even his Clown abilities couldn't save him. Fortunately, the Gray Fog concealed the scene, and no one else saw it.
...The ruler of the Balam Empire
