Tarot meeting before the "Fool" wakes up (Part II)

["On January 1, 1184, at the grand New Year's party, Madame Fronel was such a stunner. ”】

["On the twenty-fourth of September, Miss Yoonsaka was even more charming than Madame Flonal, and perhaps I was just nostalgic for my youth. ”】

["On October 2nd, they decided to betroth me to Matilda of the Abel family without consulting me beforehand! God, I haven't even seen her yet! 】

"On the 5th of October, Miss Matilda was so beautiful. ”】

["On October 6th, her personality and temperament are the type I like, and I am beginning to look forward to our marriage. ”】

["On January 16th, the taste of the witch is really good. ”】

["On March 17th, are the ladies of Intis so open? Did I fall on her, or did she fall on me? It always feels a little weird. ”】

["On February 23, 1143, I have been in this world for more than a week, and I have to write something, pour out certain things, or I feel like I'm going to go crazy.

"Hehe, I write in Chinese Simplified, no one can decipher it, the world is all alphabetic characters!"

"I'm Russell now. Gustav, but I will never forget my real name.

"Huang Tao!" 】

Looking at the translated diary content on the screen, "Justice" Audrey, "Hanged Man" Alger, "Trial" Hugh, "Magician" Furth, and "Hermit" Gardelia, the members who had provided a large number of Russell's diaries looked at each other a few times, and their eyes were a little embarrassed.

"Could it be that the diary we handed over to Mr. 'Fool' is full of such indecent contents?" Audrey recalled a scene on the tarot where Mr. "Fool" thought he was "fascinated", and quickly shook his head to deny his guess, "Maybe...... Maybe it's just that the diary in the hand of this old gentleman on the night watch is not serious, right? This is certainly not the kind of content that will fascinate Mr. Fool. ”

And "The Hanged Man" Alger forced himself to focus on the last one, reciting the term "crossing":

"Russell is a time-traveler, and this Crane is also a time-traveler, so he can understand the so-called 'simplified Middle Kingdom script' left by the other party...... Well, since Mr. 'Tower' can give a translation, it means that he also understands, so they and Mr. 'Fool' are actually from the same place? Or from the same world? ”

Daniz, who was in the auditorium, also whispered: "This is Russell the Great, whom the captain has always revered?" He is the man who invented the condom! ”

Susie, who was sitting next to him, tilted her head and said, "The date jumps a lot, but the content is very similar, this is artificially put together, right?" ”

Hearing her words, Hugh, Firth, and Gardelia on the side of the ancient bronze table nodded at the same time, with what they knew about Abner, this was indeed something he could do.

In fact, this is indeed Abner's diary deliberately put together, after all, the length of the movie is limited, and it is impossible for him to put all the episodes of the original book into it, so he can only choose some parts that are helpful to human nature.

In addition, he deliberately omitted the content of the first tarot meeting, so that Mr. "Fool" was not exposed at the beginning.

There's always a bit of suspense...... Although the smart people roughly guessed it.

Abner glanced at Colin and Pales in the audience, and then turned his attention back to the plot of the movie.

[...... "I forgot that Susie would open a door with a handle...... What was that? Not good! Audrey heard a crisp movement inside, suddenly had an association, and rushed into the laboratory.

As far as she could see, it was the cup that had broken on the ground, the last drop of silvery liquid licked off by Susie, the golden retriever.

Audrey was dumbfounded in the doorway, like a statue.

Susie, the big golden retriever, immediately sat upright, looked at her master with innocent eyes, and wagged her tail. 】

[In the open sea of Plitz Harbor, on an island that is always shrouded in storms, an ancient sailing ship is docked in the harbor.

The man with soft yellow hair and a lightning-patterned robe looked at Alger Wilson opposite him and said in great confusion:

"Alger, you could have returned to the kingdom and become the captain of the Substitute Punisher Squad or a decent bishop, why did you choose to go to sea and choose to be the captain of the 'Blue Avengers'?"

Alger's rugged and profound face had no additional expression, and replied solemnly:

"The sea is a storm, and this is the kingdom of the Lord, and I am willing to follow the will of the Lord and patrol this kingdom for her."

"Okay." The yellow-haired man clenched his fist and said, "The storm is with you. ”

"The storm is with you." Alger returned with standard etiquette. 】

At the same time that Crane started his career as a "night watchman", the pictures of Audrey and Alger were also presented in front of everyone's eyes one after another.

Miss "Justice" looked at her reckless and immature self on the screen and almost covered her face, but in the face of the eyes of others, she still kept a smile and said: "This is what happened before, the fate of this world without Mr. 'Tower' is still the same as our world here." ”

"Hanged man" Alger also nodded, "I'm the same here." ”

However, some doubts arose in his heart: why did the "fool" have his own journey to godhood? Isn't Mr. "Fool" already recovering at this time? Don't......

【…… Inside the destroyed Black Thorn Security Company, Dunn Smith turned his head sideways and looked at Crane, his pale face with a gentle and relaxed smile, and his voice was as mellow as ever:

"We saved Tingen." 】

[In the Raphael cemetery in Tingen, Kleine unveiled his coffin, stood in front of Dunn's tombstone and shook his head and sighed:

"I don't know what I'm now, maybe I'm just an evil spirit who crawled out of hell and wants revenge......]

[In the park in Tingen, Crane, who had just laid down to rest, was woken up by the police, and the other party said viciously:

"Can't sleep here!"

"Streets and parks are not places for you lazy, homeless people who don't want to do things to sleep!"

"That's what the Poor Law says!" 】

The screen quickly shows Crane's life in Tingen for more than two months, interspersed with only some pictures of Miss "Justice" and "Sun" in Silver City, although due to the lack of what happened in "Source Castle", many of Crane's actions are confusing, but it still roughly shows the whole process of his befriending Mr. Azik, trying to get rid of Ince Zangwill's control, and finally fighting Megoos, death, and resurrection at the Nightwatcher's station.

Seeing this, even if the revenge has been completed, the fists of "Star" Leonard clenched again, and he was silent for a few seconds before saying:

"Except that Kornley didn't die, what happened to us here is much the same as on screen......"

Mr. "World" is only in sequence 8 and has encountered such a terrible incident, what a great gentleman...... But such a hero was actually kicked out of the park by a policeman and had to wander all night...... For some reason, I wanted to cry...... "Justice" Audrey pursed her lips, and finally rejoiced in her heart: Fortunately, the Poor Law has been amended with the intervention of the Empress.

"The Hanged Man" Alger saw the picture of Crane breaking through the ground, combined with his previous incredible performances, and became more and more sure of the guess in his heart, he couldn't help but sigh and think: In other words, the great existence whose origin I was in awe at first and who had speculated many times about its origin was just a sequence 8?

No, as a traverser like Russell and the "Tower", he may be destined to be extraordinary...... In a sense, it can also be regarded as a revived ancient god...... Right?

And he could see that Leonard, who was more concerned about Crane, naturally also saw the clue, and after thinking for a few seconds, this gentleman looked directly at Abner next to the top seat, and asked thoughtfully: "Your Majesty the 'God of Truth', can I ask what is the relationship between Crane and Mr. 'Fool'?" ”

Hearing Leonard's question, Abner naturally guessed what the other party was thinking, but he didn't answer directly, but pointed to the screen, so that some of the pictures that had been hidden by him were displayed in turn:

【…… After a few seconds of silence above the gray mist, Crane chuckled, his tone flat, his voice low but not deep, as if in response to a visitor's polite greeting:

"An attempt." 】

【…… In the townhouses of Daffodil Street, Crane paced back and forth, and finally made up a spell to point to himself:

"O fool who does not belong to this era, you are the mysterious master above the gray mist, and you are the king of yellow and black who is in charge of good fortune......]

Call...... Leonard exhaled, because it wasn't the worst he had imagined, but the fact that Crane was the "Fool" still made him feel unreal.

At this time, Daniz, who had been watching the movie quietly, seemed to have finally woken up, and asked with wide eyes, "What does this mean?" That 'soothsayer' just now is the 'fool'? ”

"That's obvious, right?" The title of the film is "The Fool's Journey to Godhood", and the protagonist is this Mr. Crane, doesn't that explain the problem? Susie turned her head to the side and explained a little.

Hearing this, Daniz looked left and right, and found that no one was surprised except himself, even the big man and vampire who didn't look smart, they were just in a trance, as if they were remembering something, but they didn't look surprised.

】

So...... Only I'm not as good as a dog? Daniz suddenly felt that this was a fact that was even more "cruel" than the fact that the "fool" was Crane.

The film doesn't stop because of Daniz's self-doubt, and the story of Beckland soon plays on the screen.

Involved in the Ambassador Intis incident, asking Miss Sharon to be a bodyguard, killing the "Master of Secret Puppets" Rosago, taking Sharon to catch rape and other wonderful stories have been staged one after another.

And there are also some pictures of Audrey's "routine" Hugh and Firth interspersed in the middle.

["Fools who do not belong to this era......" He was stunned for a few seconds after reading the ancient Hermetic language, flicked his back, and sat up straight. 】

[And I still recite it in the unprotected ancient Hermetic language...... I'm so stupid, why should I discern with my heart and meditate carefully...... Hugh looked around in fear, afraid that a strange monster that words could not describe suddenly appeared in the quiet house. 】

"It turns out that without Abner, you would also become a follower of Mr. 'Fool' under the guidance of Miss 'Justice'." Furth smiled at Hugh.

Hugh had expected this, and was not surprised, but she was now thinking of something else: Sherlock Moriarty...... This is like the detective I interrogated in Ambassador Intis's eucalyptus...... In other words, I was interrogating Mr. "Fool" himself?

"I seem to have begged Mr. 'Fool' for help shortly after interrogating him...... Hugh's memory was good, and he suddenly recalled Abner's expression of resignation after hearing about it, and sighed, "It turns out that he knew the details of Mr. 'Fool' at that time...... Yes, Abner is probably from the same place as the 'Fool' and Russell the Great. ”

On the other hand, "Temperance" Sharon is slightly dissatisfied with the development of the story after "Catching Rape", because in that world, she doesn't seem to have more intersection with Crane, just ordinary friends......

"Moon" Emlyn looked at himself who was being played by Sherlock, and constantly comforted himself: this is all the arrangement of the ancestors, and it is the duty of the "savior of the blood clan".

But soon, the secret conversation between Qasimi and Nibeis shatters his illusions.

[Qasimi asked:

"Why did you choose Emlyn White? What's so special about him? ”

Nibes Odra laughed:

"Didn't he keep crying out to the 'fools'? Don't we think that we don't pay enough attention to his problems, and we don't want to make enemies of Bishop Utravsky, and want to look for other help?

"I'll grant his wish this time." 】

Is the so-called Ancestral Revelation deceiving me from beginning to end? Emlyn stared blankly at the big screen, his face full of disbelief and bewilderment.

Seeing this, Daniz, who had just recovered from the blow, wanted to mock him about the self-introduction of the "Savior of the Blood Clan" just now, but when he thought that the other party was a real demigod, he closed his mouth tightly.

He can't afford to mess with anyone in this party...... No, maybe not only people.

At this time, Abner said kindly: "Emrin, there is no need to be frustrated...... As far as I know, you are indeed the one of the Bloodlines who most resembles Lilith. ”

Especially when it comes to "hobbies".

Hearing the affirmation of the "God of Truth", Emlin's eyes suddenly brightened, and he wanted to ask more about where he was most like the ancestor, but the "movie" played to the wonderful part.

Everyone's attention was immediately attracted by the images displayed on the screen.

[In a hidden ruin, Crane's right hand is loose and tight, tight and loose, many times in a row.

Seven or eight seconds later, Crane opened his eyes, the corners of his mouth upturned in a pompoo.

He reached out and grabbed the revolver, turned around sharply, and rushed out.

Dressed in a long black double-breasted gown, he raised his right hand and aimed at the altar. 】

"What a kind and brave gentleman!" Everyone sighed in their hearts, for Crane's kindness, but also for his courage.

This is the purest "human" brilliance! The members of the Tarot Club some understood why Mr. "Ta" would let everyone come to see the movie.

Because these are the most precious things of Mr. Fool's part as a "human", and the key to his awakening.

And the sea adventure after "The Great Smog", except for the part of Danitz, the rest is not shown too much, and after a few scenes are given, it is passed by with a narration, and Abner only puts a little bit of the dream that Crane had when he played Admiral Emilius in front of Sharon's eyes, and no one else sees it.

As for the plot of playing Yin Lian to assassinate Tracy, it was completely deleted by Abner.

[I, Daniz "Blaze", the fourth boatswain of "Lieutenant Admiral of the Iceberg", a well-known pirate with a bounty of 3,000 pounds, how can I be driven like a servant!]

Neither my dignity, nor my reputation, allow me to accept such an insult!

Crane saw Daniz the Flame turn into a stone wither, standing there motionless, so he gave him a cold look.

Daniz's body shuddered for a moment.

He took a breath and replied with a smile more ugly than a cry:

"Okay." 】

[Crane looked at it for a few seconds and said calmly:

"You have two choices, one is to climb out on your own and hang there conspicuously, or the other is to be hung there conspicuously by me by the collar." ……

After weighing for a second, Daniz half-raised his hands, gritted his teeth and smiled:

"I'll do it myself." 】

[Daniz glanced at Gelman Sparrow and sneered:

"You're not going to tell anyone what you just saw, are you?" ……

Crane nodded slightly:

"I'll clarify this with your captain." 】

A series of interesting pictures filled the ancient hall above the gray mist with a cheerful atmosphere, and even Susie couldn't help but wagging her tail and changing her sitting position.

Only Daniz felt chills all over his body, and muttered in his heart: Even if that little white face becomes a god, he is still not a good person...... Good God!

Good thing the captain isn't here......

Abner glanced at him with a smile, and then quickly finished the follow-up plot, and played it until the outbreak of the divine war in the "Source Castle", Crane used all means, and finally had to rely on the advantage of who dared to "desperately" to kill Amon, but he had to fall into a deep sleep before stopping.

[The corners of Crane's mouth are exaggerated and upturned:

"I don't lose much, only myself."

"There's always something that stands above the rest." 】

[Crane lowered his head, looked at the "magic mirror" in his palm and said:

"Are you scared?"

On the surface of the ancient silver mirror, the water swayed, and the miserable white words outlined:

"Don't be afraid."

In the next second, Arodes asked his own question according to the rules:

"Great master, are you afraid?"

The corners of Crane's mouth moved slightly:

"I'm afraid."

After speaking, he took a step, took the "magic mirror", and walked towards the blue and black mist in the middle of the strange light gate, penetrating the past. 】

This is the end of the film, but the people in this ancient space above the gray fog have not been calm for a long time.

Even though the ladies of "Justice" and "Magician" have become demigods, their eyes are still red, and Sharon can't even control her own sadness.

Leonard's palms clenched tightly, and he relaxed after a long time: "Fortunately, this is just the story of another world, and we have the 'God of Truth' here, and Amon's body has long since fallen. ”

At this time, Alger no longer bothered about the fact that the "fool" was just an ordinary person's business at the beginning, after all, he became a god in three years, is this something that "ordinary people" can do?

He prefers to believe that this is the resurrection of the old gods.

"And looking at all the remnants of the old days, Crane, Russell, the goddess of the night, the ancient sun god, and even the 'God of Truth' in our world, each of them is at least the level of a true god!

"They're not ordinary people in the first place, are they?" Alger struggled to make excuses for his previous brain patch.

Well, that's by no means he thinks too much.

And after watching the journey of the "Fool" to become a god, the "Sun" Deric and Colin were also relieved, the "Fool" and the "Ancient Sun God" were gods from the same place, and they had successively obtained the faith of Silver City, in a sense, maybe this is also a kind of "inheritance".

At the same time, they were in awe of the era before the First Age.

"I see...... "Pales nodded thoughtfully, then glanced strangely at the God of Truth.

Because after watching the movie, this "old angel" found that the so-called "consolidating human nature" film actually does not have much effect on awakening today's "fools", because the situation of "fools" is very different from the film.

Abner also removed the screen while everyone was reminiscing, and mobilized the power of the "unknown land" to envelop Crane, who had been quietly moved to the top position by him.

The next moment, Crane, who had fallen asleep with a small mirror, suddenly woke up, he raised his head and looked around, only to find that he was already sitting in the position of the "fool", and the members of the Tarot Society, including Abner, were all there.

Before he could take a closer look, Abner, who had returned to his seat, stood up first and led the group in saluting:

"Good afternoon, Mr. 'Fool'~

"Welcome back!

"Also, Crane, I wish you a happy birthday!"

As soon as he finished speaking, "Justice", "Magician", "Hanged Man", "Temperance", and all others stood up and saluted together, and repeated excitedly and sincerely:

"Good afternoon, Mr. 'Fool'~

"Welcome back!

"Crane, I wish you a happy birthday!"

Seeing this scene, Crane's eyes suddenly moistened, he hooked the corners of his mouth, looked at Abner, and said with emotion:

"Welcome back as well...... Mr. 'Tower'......"

However, before he finished his words, he suddenly reacted, and everyone called out his name "Crane".

Immediately afterwards, he saw the auditorium on the side of the long bronze table......

And the scene that happened in the "Source Fort" just now also came to his mind.
