Good question... " The Fool " Klein secretly praised it, and then expressed the " Red Angel " Evil Spirit's explanation in his own words:
The Seven Gods all wanted a " Black Emperor," but they did not agree on who should be the " Black Emperor."
"Once George III successfully obtained that ticket through Concealment preparations, the Seven Gods, whether they approved of Him or not, had no choice but to acquiesce."
So that's how it is... Apart from the clueless " The Moon " Emlyn and " The Sun " Derrick, the rest of the Tarot Club members suddenly realized that the major churches had shown some contradictions in their actions regarding the Great Smog of Backlund disaster, the Feysac airship attack, and the "assassination" of George III.
Then, a question suddenly popped into their heads:
Since George III was fully prepared, had reached the final step of the ceremony, and had the tacit approval of the Seven Gods, why did he still fail?
They immediately came up with an answer:
Because Mr. The Fool disagrees.
Hmm... Regarding the disruption of George III's " Black Emperor " ceremony, the Church probably didn't take it too seriously, and may even have provided some assistance to Mr. The Fool's men... Did the Church of Storms take advantage of this chaos to do something in secret? No, they probably wouldn't do much to cover it up... " The Star " Leonard recalled the various details he had noticed before and gained a comprehensive understanding of the situation.
The Seven Gods tacitly approved... Mr. The Fool voted against it, sending his Blessed, including "The World," to secretly sabotage George III's ascension to godhood... But what does this have to do with the Queen? Why did she discover that Gehrman Sparrow was missing? Hmm, " Black Emperor "... Perhaps the Queen was involved in this operation orchestrated by Mr. The Fool, only to discover her collaborator was missing afterwards... Using her extensive experience and knowledge, " The Hermit " Cattleya made conjectures about the truth of the matter.
It was only at this moment that " The Moon " Emlyn pieced together the dots from their discussion and understood what changes had occurred in the outside world during his time in sexual protection:
George III plotted to become a god, which was approved by the Seven Gods, but the ceremony was disrupted by Blessed sent by Mr. The Fool, and he died on the spot!
Seeing everyone fall silent for a moment, " The Fool " Klein looked at " The Hermit " Cattleya and said:
Are there any other questions?
"Not this time." Cattleya lowered her head even further, showing even greater reverence than before for the great being at the head of the bronze table.
Although she had long known that Mr. The Fool had Great Angel under his command— the Snake of Fate, the Death Consul, and the Ancient Bane —and that he secretly controlled the School of Life, she still did not expect that Mr. The Fool's power in the real world could disrupt a king's ascension ceremony and thwart the plot of an Angel King, the son of the Creator.
The power hidden behind " The Fool " is far more exaggerated than I imagined... What role do we, the members of the Tarot Club, play for Him? The power behind Him? Our own growth potential? Or are we just backup options?" In that instant, " The Hermit " Cattleya thought of many things, and for a moment she even forgot that she was already Sequence 4 Demigod, which would be considered a high-ranking position in any organization.
The things Mr. The Fool showed were enough to make a Saint lack confidence... Audrey " Justice " understood Ms. " The Hermit's " state of mind with just one glance.
At this moment, " The Fool " Klein nodded:
"You may begin."
Upon hearing this, " The Star " Leonard immediately turned to the bottom of the weathered long table and said to "The World":
How are you doing now?
Members of the Tarot Club, including " The Magician " Fors, " The Judgement " Hugh, and " Justice " Audrey, also turned their attention to the situation, expressing concern for "The World" Gehrman Sparrow.
In their view, Mr. World, caught between Mr. The Fool and Amon the Angel of Time, and used as a tool in their struggle, is probably not in a good position, and is lucky enough to be alive.
Sensing this concern, however slight, Klein Manipulation the dummy "world" and chuckled in a low, hoarse voice:
It's not too bad, but it's not too good either.
"Thanks to Mr. ' The Fool's' favor, I finally obtained a secret from Amon, but I haven't completely rid myself of him yet."
Before anyone could react, he continued, speaking to himself:
I am now in a rather troublesome predicament.
"I relied on Mr. The Fool's power to enter a kind of Concealment state and temporarily get rid of Amon. However, if I release this state and return to reality, I can only appear where my original body was, and Amon is likely still lingering nearby."
"I'd like to try and find a solution first. I wonder if you have any suggestions?"
"The World" Gehrman Sparrow's literal meaning is quite clear: he wants to rely on himself first, and only if all else fails should he ask " The Fool " for help.
His actual meaning is essentially the same: first, find out if there is a way to bypass the restrictions, and if that doesn't work, consider living in Death state.
"A solution?" Alger the Hanged Man and the others suddenly became excited, because their suggestions would be used to fight against an Angel King.
If it's adopted and works, it's something you can brag about for the rest of your life!
" Justice " Audrey was about to speak with great interest, but she held back her words, knowing that she couldn't give advice carelessly, lest it lead to Mr. "World" being captured by Amon.
After careful consideration, Hugh, the " Judgement," realized he couldn't offer any useful advice and had no choice but to observe and learn from the sidelines.
"Does it have to be where your body originally was? Do you have any blood or hair stored elsewhere?" Alger, the " The Hanged Man," pondered for a moment before offering a suggestion in the form of a question.
" The Fool " Klein thought for a moment, then made the dummy "World" shake its head and say:
"No."
Compared to the body's original volume, one or two vials of blood represent a very small percentage.
Thinking about this, Klein suddenly had an Spirit Intuition:
Perhaps we can use those two vials of blood as materials, combined with other ingredients, and through Life Refinement process, create a new body!
Two problems: First, Life Refinement requires the participation of a spirit, otherwise the final product may not be my body. Second, I don't know Demigod who can complete Life Refinement; the only one who's somewhat related is Frank Lee... In the end, I'll become a mushroom-man? Maybe I'd better become Death... Klein thought about it and almost shivered.
After the " The Hanged Man's" suggestion was rejected, the " The Hermit " Cattleya, drawing upon her occult knowledge, carefully inquired:
Do you have Sequence 3 Sealed Artifact?
"Why do you ask that?" "World," Gehrman Sparrow countered.
" Sequence 3 Sealed Artifact can respond to prayers within a certain range; you can take advantage of that," The Hermit Cattleya, explained simply.
Klein roughly understood what the " The Hermit " lady was thinking:
You mean 'descend'?
"Yes, have someone set up the descent ritual at the edge of the area, and you should be able to respond while in an active, Concealment state." " The Hermit " Cattleya glanced at " The Sun," described the specific plan, and then asked with a hint of understanding, "You really have Sequence 3 Sealed Artifact?"
She had originally intended for the "world" to seek blessings from Mr. The Fool.
"I already have Sequence 3," Klein replied succinctly, Manipulation the dummy "World."
The members of the Tarot Club were speechless.
They all knew very well that Mr. "World" should have only been promoted to Sequence 4 and become Demigod at the end of June.
And now it's December of the same year!
The Queen once said that I used the blood of the " Snake of Fate " to advance, and it will be easier for me to become Sequence 3 " Prophet " than others... Moreover, the Tarot Club given me a lot of valuable occult knowledge, which has allowed me to digest a large amount of the Potion... But even so, it will still take me more than half a year before I have any hope of reaching Sequence 3... " The Hermit " Cattleya subconsciously looked around and found that the other members of the Tarot Club were in a state of half numbness and half envy.
She sighed silently and said:
"Was my advice helpful, Mr. 'World'?"
"The World," Gehrman Sparrow shook his head:
"In that situation, there are significant limitations to how one responds."
Once he chooses to descend, it means he will begin his life as a Death —no, a ghost.
Perhaps, we could combine the two methods... Hmm, we could pray to the " The Fool," the " Sea God," or the " Protector of Magic " to descend and escape the Forsaken Land of the Gods, but that's not urgent, it would be too easy to expose the truth... The " The Fool " Klein thoughtfully directed the dummy "World" to look at the " The Star " Leonard.
Leonard instantly understood what he meant and hummed in agreement.
"I'll go back and look through the documents to see if there are any other ideas."
Clearly, what he really meant was to go back and ask the Old Man, the Angel who knew Amon quite well, who might be able to offer advice that others wouldn't have thought of.
This was exactly the answer Klein wanted, and he immediately asked "The World" Gehrman Sparrow:
"Good."
The discussion about a way to escape the predicament has temporarily come to an end. "World" Gehrman Sparrow looked at " Magician " Fors:
"Please ask the Abraham Family if they still have any ' Worm of Star ' whose Spirituality hasn't been completely lost. If so, what would they need to exchange for them?"
" Worm of Star " are a high-level Spirituality material. Most of the time, they do not possess Beyonder Characteristic. Therefore, their Spirituality will be irreversibly lost, and they are difficult to preserve for long without special methods.
" Worm of Star..." Fors, the " Magician," paused for a moment before nodding.
"OK."
After receiving a reply, Klein then turned the world's attention to the " The Hermit " Cattleya:
"If Miss ' Magician ' fails to trade for the ' Worm of Star ' from the Abraham Family, I would like to entrust you with a task."
"What mission?" Cattleya asked with interest.
"World," Gehrman Sparrow smiled and said:
"Hunter of the Aurora Order's ' Saint of Secrets ' Botis."
