Chapter 6: The Tarot Meeting of the Demigods
Fenerport City, outside the newly built "Loreto Cinema" just a month ago.
Miss Judy held Miss "Plant", who looked exactly like her, and while licking the "leaving ice cream" presented by the theater, she excitedly said to her mother Cross Fia, who was walking on the other side:
"Mom...... Abner is really good, how did he estimate the exact data of the vortex, and then calculate the lowest disengagement velocity and the most suitable angle? ”
Crossfia was a little speechless, and Abner did want to do the math, but he quickly gave up because he didn't think it was necessary......
But this matter may be a matter of success or failure of the ceremony, and Cross Fia did not expose this lie, and only replied vaguely:
"Abner, with the help of some tools......" (for example, me)
"Relying on some method ......" (e.g. distorting the weight of the ship)
"This pulled the 'Laurel' out of the whirlpool, but in order to highlight his 'wisdom' in the film, it was not released."
Judy was stunned when she heard this, but she still said with admiration: "Even so, he is still very powerful, otherwise I may ask you to turn into a dragon and drag the ship out." ”
Very well, it seems that you should have a common language with Abner...... Cross Fia complained in her heart, and just wanted to say something, but her expression suddenly moved, and then she took out a letter from the void.
Seeing this, Judy hurriedly turned on the "Spiritual Vision", only to see an eight-legged demon wolf enter the spiritual realm and disappear.
This wolf ghost Judy knew and knew that it was Abner's messenger, and that his mother had brought it to Abner after getting the "Blue Sawgrass".
"What did Abner say in the letter?" Judy asked curiously when she saw her mother put down the letter.
"He's been promoted to demigod...... So to thank us for our help, we were invited to a dinner at his Beckland home on Thursday night. Crossfia replied with a smile.
"He's really a demigod......" Although it had been expected, Judy was still amazed, after all, it hadn't been long since the last time Blue Mountain Island was parted...... And the other party was still a sequence 6 at that time.
But then she asked, with some confusion: "Why Thursday?" ”
Such a thank-you banquet should have been held the next day...... If it's for something more grand and formal, you should choose the weekend.
"With what I know about him, about the 'reader' pathway of some extraordinary people...... I guess I need to stagger the people who are entertaining...... And we were scheduled for Thursday. Crossfia thought for a moment, and said for sure.
Judy blinked, not quite understanding what her mother meant, but she didn't ask, and instead said, "Then we're going to Beckland now?" ”
"No, he'll be here on Thursday."
……
At the same time, Fanny, who was in Intistril and also walked out of the theater, also received a letter from the "demon wolf".
"Wednesday night party? It's been a long time since I've been back to Beckland, and I've missed my friends there...... I don't know how Emma is doing...... And the 'Eye of Wisdom' grandfather......
"I can see Abner again......"
Just as she was imagining, the voices of several citizens who had just finished watching the film came to her ears.
"It's really a shocking film, and it's so enviable...... I also want to go to sea to hunt for treasures and get a lot of treasures. A man said with a longing in his tone.
"Stop dreaming...... Without Abner Blaine's experience and wisdom, you'll be trapped in the maelstrom! The friend next to him struck.
"I'm naturally fully prepared to go ......," the man before snorted dissatisfiedly, and then said with some regret, "Why did Abner Bryne give such a large sum of money to Rune since he settled in our Intis?" ”
"People are here to get a knighthood...... We don't! His friend said helplessly.
"That said...... Why should our country abolish the king? Obviously, Russell the Great has explored it and knows that the road without a king will not work, so he is called the emperor!
"Look at the previous "Russell Gustav", it is clear that we are the strongest country in the era of the Great, what Rune, Intis, Fenerport...... They all have to ask us for peace...... Look at the present...... Ay! The person before grumbled.
His words immediately resonated with the others around him, and they all echoed him:
"It's always said that we have the best model now, but what's the difference between those big families and the previous nobles? And without the king's checks and balances, they are even more unscrupulous. ”
"That's right, especially the current prime minister, who still wants to control the freedom of the press, which is even more excessive than the period when the king ruled!"
"Yes, maybe we should restore the system of Russell the Great, whether it is the Saurons, the Gustavs, or any other family that deserves to be kings, and compete fairly...... In short, we may be able to elect a king. ”
In the end, this person's whimsical suggestion was praised by many people, and then the crowd that had just watched the movie gathered into a procession, and many passers-by were coerced towards the parliament building.
Fanny, who was in the procession, was a little anxious at first, but then her heart moved, and she directly revealed the identity of the councillor, and then used the persuasiveness and charm attached to the "lawyer" channel to successfully achieve the leadership of the procession.
……
In Lemburg, "Lieutenant General of the Iceberg" Adwina's eyes lit up as she unfolded the letter from the demon wolf, as Abner invited her to explore the ruins of Byam's "Aromatic Manor" on Saturday.
This was something they had agreed on a few months ago, and Abner knew that although Adevina loved food, she didn't like banquets very much, so she took the exploration of the ruins as a thank you.
Edwina was really interested in this, and immediately returned to his house in Lenburg to pack his things, and used secret magic to inform the second mate that he would drive the "Golden Dream" to the designated location.
……
Monday, half past two in the afternoon.
Abner sealed off his room with spirituality, and then constantly adjusted the state of the shadowed eyes in his "incomplete mythical form", the divine spirit he named "Wisdom Eye".
After a while, he relied on his previous experience of exploring the "unknown land" to successfully isolate a "discerning eye" and make its image change and transform into his own appearance.
"In this way, this 'Wisdom Eye' is equivalent to one of my spirit clones, but it carries very little power, and if I participate in the Tarot Conference in my place, I can not only share what I see and hear in real time, but also do not burden Klein too much......
"Of course, this still needs the cooperation of Mr. 'Fool', otherwise this secret technique will not be effective.
"Hey, I said I wanted to settle accounts with him, but I still can't help but think about him in these things...... After all, Mr. 'Fool' is not easy to ......."
After feeling for a while, Abner casually made up an excuse and recited his honorific name and asked for the "Wisdom Eye" to open the Tarot Society on his behalf.
Not surprisingly, Mr. "Fool" readily agreed.
……
At three o'clock, in the ancient hall above the gray mist.
On both sides of the mottled ancient bronze table, "Justice", "Magician", "Judgment", "Hermit", "Hanging Man", "Tower", "Sun", "Moon", "World", nine blurred figures stretched and lengthened in the cluster of crimson light, fixed, and the surroundings were as quiet and empty as ever, like a solemn and sacred temple.
No, this is the temple! A temple of the gods!
"Good afternoon, Mr. 'Fool'~" "Justice" Audrey led everyone to get up, and then her light and cheerful voice soon echoed in the magnificent palace supported by stone pillars.
Klein replied with a bow, watching as the members simply completed their greetings to each other under the active activity of Miss "Justice".
In this, the seat of "Temperance" Sharon is still vacant, and the young lady has been absent from the Tarot Club for nearly three months.
This worries the kind-hearted Audrey, who wonders if something might have gone wrong with the young lady's promotion ceremony.
When the voices died down and the members sat down, Klein the "Fool" glanced at Miss Justice again.
Audrey, who had had a similar experience before, immediately understood and did not raise her hand to ask questions first.
Klein the "Fool" then looked at Abner the "Tower" and chuckled indifferently:
"Congratulations on taking a step forward on your extraordinary path."
