Klein stared at the parchment in front of him, remaining motionless for a long time.

After a long while, he gently patted the edge of the mottled long table, causing all the materialized objects to disappear.

Klein summoned his gold-cased pocket watch, opened it, glanced at it, and then sent a message to Little " The Sun," telling him to prepare to attend the Tarot Gathering.

After about a thousand heartbeats, streaks of deep red light rose from both sides of the bronze table, coalescing into different figures on different high-backed chairs.

Without the slightest pause, all the Tarot Club members turned their gazes to the figure seated at the very top, shrouded in gray-white mist.

Seeing that Mr. The Fool wasn't wearing his monocle, Leonard, the " The Star," breathed a long sigh of relief. He then turned around and looked at the bottom of the weathered table to check on Klein Moretti, the "World."

Like him, " The Hermit " Cattleya, " Justice " Audrey, and " The Magician " Fors all instinctively focused their attention on "The World" Gehrman Sparrow after seeing " The Fool ".

One of them knew that "The World" was in a dangerous situation and could only seek the protection of Mr. " The Fool "; another had not received any feedback for two days and suspected that Gehrman Sparrow was really involved in the George III affair and that something had happened to him; and the third knew that the George III affair was very risky and was a little worried that Mr. "The World" had suffered serious trauma.

Seeing that "World" Gehrman Sparrow was unharmed and showed no signs of distress, " Justice " Audrey withdrew her gaze, lifted her skirt slightly, and bowed to the head of the bronze table.

Good afternoon, Mr. The Fool.

The Tarot Club could still maintain its original form after the global situation became even more chaotic gave her some comfort and improved her mood considerably.

After the Tarot Club members finished bowing to "Miss Justice," " The Fool " Klein nodded slightly, gesturing for everyone to sit down.

Then, he slowly looked around and said with a light laugh:

"You all seem quite concerned about whether this Tarot Club proceed as scheduled."

Upon hearing this, Alger, the " The Hanged Man," felt his heart race, and he could almost hear the thumping sounds in his ears.

He had no doubt that "Mr. The Fool " was referring to him, giving him a rather gentle tap.

In other words, he was given a chance to repent.

Alger lowered his head, letting his voice tremble slightly as he spoke:

"We weren't devout enough, and we overthought things."

Uh... why is Mr. " The Hanged Man " taking my place...? Fors, the " Magician " who instructed " Judgement " Fors to ask Mr. "The Fool " whether the Tarot Club gathering would proceed as scheduled, paused for a moment, abandoned his thought, and turned to the head of the bronze table, lowered his head, and repeated:

"We weren't devout enough, and we overthought things."

It turns out I wasn't the only one praying to Mr. The Fool these past few days... Mr. The Hanged Man said he was overthinking things because the Tarot Club canceled, causing him to make some unnecessary speculations? But Fors shouldn't have thought of that... Audrey " Justice " looked across at the other side, then at her own side, and suddenly realized something.

" The Fool " Klein nodded, then looked around again and said:

"This kind of concern is quite normal."

He immediately smiled and sighed:

"During this time, I used the body of 'The World' to play a game with Amon in the Forsaken Land of the Gods. Fortunately, I didn't miss this Tarot Club."

Everything he said was true, but the information others gleaned from it would certainly be very different from the actual situation.

Therefore, even if Amon spreads the news that "The World" Gehrman Sparrow equals " The Fool," the Tarot Club members will only sneer in their hearts that Amon is trying to Deceit. The fact that "The World" equals " The Fool " during that period does not mean that "The World" always equals " The Fool." Part of the truth is actually equivalent to Lies.

He played a game with Amon... The Old Man guessed right. Mr. Fool deliberately used Klein to lure Amon, the Blasphemer "The Fool... Judging from the current situation, He got a satisfactory result and made Amon suffer a heavy loss... Leonard, the " The Star," who had already guessed, felt that this was exactly what he expected and had no doubt about Mr. The Fool's words.

" The Fool " didn't reply for a quarter of an hour. Was it because he was at a crucial moment in his struggle with Amon? Had He recovered to this extent? " Justice " Audrey was both surprised and delighted, and felt a strong sense of honor for no apparent reason.

Alger, the " The Hanged Man," also gleaned from Mr. The Fool's words the hidden meaning that the other party was further revived and could even gain the upper hand in a direct confrontation with an Angel King.

This made him even more annoyed that he had doubted and had to test the waters.

Did Mr. The Fool Psychological Suggestion the possible cancellation of the Tarot Club because he had already foreseen the upcoming conflict with Amon? Or perhaps, he even deliberately provoked it, setting a trap for Amon? Alger instantly connected many ideas, realizing that his own petty thoughts were utterly impossible to conceal in the face of such a high-ranking being.

He warned himself once again: I must never do anything like this again!

It turns out that Mr. World didn't give any feedback because Mr. The Fool was using his body to fight against Amon... That Angel King Amon is really powerful, so much so that Mr. The Fool had to take action himself... " Magician " Fors and " Judgement " Hugh exchanged glances, no longer having any doubts about the previous question.

The Hermit, Cattleya, roughly understood the reason for the disappearance of "The World," Gehrman Sparrow, and guessed that the messenger with the contractual connection was probably also unable to enter the Forsaken Land of the Gods.

At the same time, she was secretly surprised by the arrival of an Angel King on the stage of the present era, feeling that it was one of the signs of the Apocalypse apocalypse.

Emlyn " The Moon " was unaware of what had happened during this time. He looked at everyone with a slightly bewildered expression, and inexplicably had the feeling that he had been locked behind the Chanis Gate for more than just a week or two, perhaps even a month or two, to the point that he felt out of touch with the current situation.

"Mr. World" has come to the Forsaken Land of the Gods... "Mr. The Fool " used his body to fight that terrible Amon? " The Sun " Derrick was first surprised, then felt a strong joy.

This means that City of Silver's upcoming exploration efforts will receive powerful assistance!

He immediately looked towards the head of the long bronze table and blurted out:

"Dear Mr. ' The Fool,' the Chief wishes to receive your blessing during the ceremony. Do you agree?"

Klein had already learned of this from the prayers, and nodded slightly, saying:

"Can."

Upon receiving the promise, " The Sun " Derrick couldn't help but smile, momentarily at a loss for words to express his gratitude.

After a two-second pause, he lowered his head and said loudly:

"Only believe in Mr. ' The Fool '!"

" The Fool " Klein nodded, then turned to " The Hermit " lady and said gently:

What's the problem this time?

Uh, the Queen's letter didn't mention it... " The Hermit " Cattleya paused for a moment, then decided to ask one question she wanted to know first, since there were still quite a few questions left.

She hesitated for two seconds before saying:

"Great ' The Fool,' what truth lies hidden behind the death of George III?"

As soon as the " The Hermit " finished speaking, Audrey and the others, who were on the " Justice " side, perked up and focused their attention.

That's exactly what they want to know.

Leonard, who is known as " The Star," already has a certain understanding of the situation and is more concerned about the deeper reasons behind the incident.

Among the members of the Tarot Club, the only one who seemed rather bewildered was " The Moon " Emlyn, whose mind was filled with thoughts like "What happened?"

He hasn't even had time to read the newspapers lately and is unaware that King George III has been "assassinated."

As for " The Sun " Derrick, although he also didn't know how George III died, he didn't care at all.

" The Fool " Klein smiled and said in a calm tone:

" George III wanted to become the ' Black Emperor,' so he excavated the ruins of Tudor, trafficked people, created the Great Smog of Backlund Incident, and initiated a war to allow the Feysac airships to bomb Backlund. Unfortunately, he failed in the final ceremony, and the secret tomb he needed was destroyed."

He described the whole story in the most plain language, without mentioning what he had done.

It would be beneath Mr. The Fool's dignity to explain the situation on his own initiative.

The Great Smog of Backlund Incident... the airship attack... were all things George III did to become a god? " Justice," Audrey's eyes widened slightly as she instantly recalled these two events she had personally experienced.

Suddenly, she began to understand why "The World," Gehrman Sparrow, had tried to prevent George III from becoming a god.

She knew he was a gentle and loving gentleman, and he certainly wouldn't let the real culprit behind these two tragedies get away with it.

If it were me, I would also want to do that, but I would hesitate, and be stopped by possible negative developments... But Mr. "World" is firm and decisive... This involves matters of the gods, hmm, there must also be the will of Mr. " The Fool " in this... Audrey glanced at "World" Gehrman Sparrow, who was sitting silently at the bottom of the mottled long table, and nodded slightly to show her agreement.

" The Black Emperor "... George III wants to become a god? This... Hmm, Mr. The Fool has a Card of Blasphemy called " The Black Emperor," Gehrman Sparrow was also investigating the smog and human trafficking... Sure enough, these things connect, and there's such a secret hidden behind them... Now it seems that Mr. The Fool has achieved his goal, and his plan has succeeded... Therefore, he has been resurrected further and can now confront the Angel King head-on... The Hanged Man Alger became more and more fearful and more and more alert, feeling that even though he knew some clues in advance, he still couldn't see through Mr. The Fool's scheme.

While the Tarot Club members, including " The Star " Leonard and " Magician " Fors, were shocked, " The Hermit " Cattleya, who had a premonition of what was to come, suppressed her turbulent emotions and decided to use another question:

"Dear Mr. ' The Fool,' what is the Seven Gods ' attitude towards this?"
