The information provided by "The Sun" lists in detail some representative subordinate deities, but most of them do not have real names, only titles. These include the "Goddess of Beauty" and "Goddess of Life" subordinate to Lilith, the progenitor of vampires; the "Goddess of Misfortune" and "God of the Dead" subordinate to the destroyer wolf Fregra; the "Goddess of Luck" and "Queen of Calamity" subordinate to the elven king Suniasolem, and so on.
Queen of Calamity... Klein suddenly thought of the Book of Calamity, and the golden goblet he had obtained from the High Elf ruins, which was engraved with the name Cohinem and the Elvish word for " Calamity ".
This led him to suspect that Cohinem was a subordinate god of the Elf King, the " Queen of Calamity "!
Unfortunately, we can't directly seek confirmation from the little " The Sun "; we have to wait for him to provide further information... Klein sighed silently.
At the same time, he made some guesses about the fact that these titles did not correspond to real names:
City of Silver was originally the " Nation of Silver " ruled by the Giant King's Court. Apart from having sufficient knowledge of its own power and its mortal enemies, the information about the other ancient gods mostly came from hearsay and was not very detailed. Compared to simple and easy-to-understand titles, complex and difficult-to-pronounce real names were obviously harder to remember and spread.
The information revealed after turning the page initially confirmed Klein's judgment, but it also raised new doubts for him:
The Dragon race also includes a " Dragon of Wisdom " equivalent to a deity in the City of Silver, Herabergen. Below the Giant King Ormir are his eldest son, " God of Dawn " Badhair, and his queen, " Goddess of Harvest."
Why doesn't the " Goddess of Harvest " have a real name? Isn't she the queen of the Giant King's Court? City of Silver shouldn't have no records of her... These so-called subordinate gods are equivalent to later Angel or the Angel King? Hmm, Sequence 2 of this path, Sequence 1 of other paths? Klein suppressed his confusion and deduced the actual situation. He relied on the knowledge recorded in the " Card of Blasphemy." Within the same path, if there is Sequence 0, there is no Sequence 1. If there is no Sequence 0, there can be at most three Sequence 1.
However, Klein dared not make a definitive judgment based on this, since his knowledge was still relatively limited, and he himself was not clear whether there were any preconditions or restrictions on the details of Sequence 0 and Sequence 1, which originated from the indestructibility and conservation laws of Beyonder Characteristic.
For now, that's what I'll assume... Klein leaned back, making the documents in his hand disappear as he smiled and said:
"You may begin."
At this moment, Alger, the " The Hanged Man," was still carefully examining himself.
After considering how to communicate, he adopted a perspective-taking approach, trying to see things from the point of view of the " The Hermit " woman who was suspected to be a " Admiral of Stars," and examining what specific information he had revealed.
"Mr. ' The Fool's ' protection of each member's true identity involves a kind of image ambiguity and Distortion, but this doesn't affect the expression of color. While similar shades like brown and tan are indeed difficult to distinguish, vivid colors can still be grasped. At least I can clearly tell that Miss ' Justice ' is blonde with bright green eyes..."
"My most obvious and undeniable feature is my deep blue hair, but that doesn't prove anything. It's not wrong to say that deep blue hair is a common mutation of the ' Sailor ' pathway, but the reverse is not true, because this trait is hereditary. On Sonia Island, in the Raging Sea of Desi Bay, where Elf originally gathered, many people with faint Elf blood also have deep blue hair. Ah, the same is true in areas where the Church of Storms has a certain number of Beyonder..."
Without considering other characteristics, it would be difficult for the ' The Hermit ' to deduce any further information from this situation.
Just as Alger breathed a sigh of relief, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the Storm Robe he was wearing out of the corner of his eye.
Upon returning to the " Blue Avenger," his role extended beyond captain to include bishop of the Sailor, requiring him to regularly wear appropriate attire and conduct Mass.
If he doesn't demonstrate his piety in his daily conduct, he might be reported by his subordinates one day.
The Church of Storms has always been wary of its members who spend long periods at sea, because if they pretend to be pirates for too long, they might become real pirates. In any case, the " Lord of Storms " has never issued a divine decree excluding pirates from the believers.
Under that blurry and Distortion concealment, the details of the clothing were hard to see clearly, but that wasn't a problem... However, I should still be careful in the future and change into something unremarkable for Tarot Gathering... Although I can't be sure, I still have to treat him like a pirate general and can't be careless... " The Hanged Man " Alger thought cautiously.
Just then, he heard " The Moon " Emlyn speak, his voice seemingly lowered but actually brimming with excitement:
"Mr. ' The Hanged Man,' I'm ready. When will you be able to obtain the Sanguine Baron's inheritance? You mentioned last time that it was in the hands of a great pirate?"
You don't need to add that last sentence... Alger's body suddenly stiffened.
The great pirate... " The Hermit " Cattleya's gaze swept over " The Hanged Man " once more.
Alger's expression remained unchanged as he turned his head and replied to " the Moon ":
"You got the cash?"
"Of course!" Emlyn said, craning his neck.
He had originally planned to wait until the three-month period for the draft was over before exchanging it at the bank, but he soon realized that his feelings had completely changed after deciding to buy the Sanguine Baron's inheritance:
No more doubts, no more hesitations, just anticipation and longing, I couldn't wait to get it, just like when I saved up enough money to buy my favorite Puppet!
He endured it for over a week, but finally couldn't resist and sold the banker's acceptance bill. Although he lost some money, it was still acceptable.
In many cases, banker's acceptances can be used as currency.
"I'll get it for you this week. Finally, let's confirm the price again, 4500 pounds, is that alright?" Seeing that the deal was about to be finalized, Alger didn't pursue the matter of " The Moon " revealing his information earlier.
Emlyn thought about the Puppet in his room, cleared his throat, and said with a shifty gaze:
"Can you make it cheaper?"
"This isn't something I can decide, but I can try to negotiate for you again. Also, don't forget my commission, a little less, how about 300 pounds? The Hanged Man," Alger's tone remained unchanged.
"Good. The Moon," Emlyn quietly exhaled.
Not a very strong Vampire, underage or just turned 18... The " The Hermit " Cattleya observed silently and made her judgment.
Seeing that Mr. The Hanged Man and Mr. The Moon had reached a deal in just a few words, " Justice " Audrey habitually felt she should buy something.
In a week or two, I'll contact the members of the " Psychology Alchemists " in East Chester County to tell them that I've become a " Psychiatrist," and exchange contributions for subsequent Potion recipes. There's no need to buy them here for now... Once I know what materials I need, I'll ask everyone for help... I can't buy any more magical items for now either; I've already reimbursed one... Obtaining such rare items too frequently is itself a big deal... Audrey's thoughts raced, and she had an idea.
She turned halfway around, looking at the gloomy man at the bottom of the long bronze table:
"Mr. World, you mentioned a clue about the ' Psychiatrist's ' residual characteristics before. Have you successfully obtained it?"
"I plan to buy it and feed it to Susie..." she silently added to herself.
Actually, when she was thinking about it, she had another slightly mischievous idea, which was to find an excuse to get Mr. The Fool to turn over the " Black Emperor " card on his side.
In her view, since the " The Hermit " was particularly concerned about Roselle's Diary, reacted unusually strongly, and quickly and well covered it up, then the other party might know the " Card of Blasphemy " and would expose many problems and reveal her truest thoughts the moment she saw it.
But in the end, she gave up the idea, not because she felt that testing the " The Hermit " was not good for her—that Tarot Club —but because she felt she shouldn't make decisions for the " The Fool."
If He wants the " The Hermit " to recognize the " Card of Blasphemy," He will surely turn it over himself; if He doesn't want to, then my attempt would be against His will... Audrey nodded solemnly but almost imperceptibly.
At this moment, "the world" responded hoarsely:
"If you're sure you want it, I'll get it to you as soon as possible."
"Price: £1800."
Normally, £1200 to £1500 would be a reasonable price for the " Psychiatrist's" Beyonder Characteristic. Klein is overcharging a bit; let's see how much Miss " Justice " will negotiate back.
"Okay. Justice," Audrey agreed cheerfully.
She had already paid off the remaining balance owed to Viscount Glaint, and after returning to the family estate, she received many coming-of-age gifts. She was in a very comfortable financial situation, and had even made arrangements in advance to repay Mr. The Fool's Blessed next month.
After that, her monthly pension income was over £3,000, and she didn't have to pay for a large portion of her daily expenses, thanks to her parents' love and the lingering effects of her previous meritorious service.
While the two were discussing, " The Hanged Man " was somewhat surprised. "The World" had just sold the " Faceless " Beyonder Characteristic last time, and recently acquired the "Iron" Maviti's trait. It seemed that there was also a " Psychiatrist " trait hidden in the background. And all of this had happened in less than a month!
Upon further reflection, Alger quickly felt relieved:
"World" represents the group of Blessed of Mr. The Fool, and this may be the gain of other Blessed!
As he was lost in thought, the "world," that is, Klein, was in a state of shock at Miss " Justice's " boldness.
He had assumed that Miss Justice, who had just spent £5,500 on the magical item, wouldn't be in such financial straits recently, just like last year, so he had left room for her to haggle. But to his surprise, she still agreed to the deal without hesitation.
"Have we struck gold?" Klein couldn't help but mutter to himself.
Seeing that they had finished their discussion, " The Sun " Derrick quickly followed " Justice " Miss's example and raised his hand, saying:
"Does any of you possess the fruit of the Radiant Spirit Pact Tree?"
He had already collected the other ingredients for the " The Sun High Priest " Potion quite smoothly.
Just as " The Hermit " Cattleya had made a preliminary judgment that Miss " Justice " was a " Psychiatrist " who had not yet been promoted, she heard this request. After a few seconds of silence, she said:
"I have.
What will you offer in exchange?
After observing for a long time, she decided to get involved in a small transaction to gain a deeper understanding of how the Tarot Club operates.
"Um... I can trade the history of City of Silver for the history of dark creatures like Dragon and Elf. The Sun," Derrick said sincerely. "' The Hermit ' lady, here is also a list of common Monster in the area around City of Silver; you can choose the materials you need from it."
That's so frank... " The Fool " Klein almost looked up at the dome of the magnificent palace.
What was he saying...? Cattleya frowned slightly, unable to fully understand the words of the " The Sun " for a moment.
