Magician 129 The weirdness of the "gambler".

"Huh? Gone? Mr. Cole looked at the scene in front of him and touched his chin, unable to figure out why.

Did the other party take the initiative to "leave", or did they "leave" uncontrollably?

Brian adjusted the angle of his body so that he could see the words on the white paper more clearly.

The text is choppy, and at first glance I can't understand what it is written, but I can recognize it as Bruine.

Brian did not give up on recognizing the words on the blank paper, and continued to observe carefully, believing that with his basic knowledge of words, he would be able to recognize them.

It just takes some time.

By observing Brian's actions, the other three all guessed Brian's thoughts and didn't bother.

However, the process by which the three of them arrived at this result was very different, Cole knew Brian's situation and felt that it was necessary to try; Josephine thinks that Brian is cracking with supernatural powers; Bill, on the other hand, didn't care too much, and waited for Brian to solve the problem after failing to crack the text......

After a while, Brian's expression was slightly stunned, as if he had made a discovery.

And during this time, the other three were not idle, and expanded the scope of searching, but still found no new ones.

Brian came back from his thoughts, saw that no one was there, and anxiously trotted out of the bedroom, scanning the hallway of the villa, just in time to see Cole who had just come out of the second bedroom.

"Mr. Cole, I see what those words mean." Brian ran to his teacher's side and said directly:

"Meaning, 'I'm Viscount Jonas Addison'......"

"It's really him......" Cole snapped.

When they first heard Bill's story, Cole and Bryce had speculated that it might have something to do with the vanished viscount, and now it's been confirmed.

Then Mr. Cole folded his arms over his chest and fell into deep thought.

Brian did not dare to disturb, and stood obediently to the side, only to see Mr. Cole's right index finger tap on his left arm.

"Words on a blank piece of paper may not be credible, be careful......"

Inexplicably, Brian didn't hear anyone speak, but such a thought came to his mind.

Is this one of Mr. Cole's abilities?

As Brian was thinking, Mr. Cole opened his eyes again and said something he didn't expect

"Go to the tavern and ask."

"Huh?" Brian tilted his head slightly, not understanding the meaning.

Just listen to Mr. Cole continue:

"Since it is the Viscount Jones, then this matter must involve Oliel Swift and fate."

"It's an area I don't know, and little Mottley can't know either, so go to the tavern that helped you and see if you can get some useful information......

Cole was naturally aware of the Starry Sky Tavern, and after the Black Mist Incident, Brian confessed most of the truth to the troupe.

Under normal circumstances, Ms. Catherine must investigate the Star Tavern in the future, so as not to cause harm to unofficial "professionals".

However, considering that the current situation is special, it is already on the edge of the cliff, and it is not appropriate to cause more chaos, so the investigation was abandoned.

After only thinking about it for a moment, Brian nodded and agreed, and walked out of the villa, leaving a faint starlight in the dark manor.

When Josephine and Bill came out of the room they were looking for and found Brian missing, the former asked:

"What about Mr. Brian?"

"I've got something going out, and I'll be back later." Mr. Cole didn't say much, and he didn't say much.

Hearing this, Bill walked into the master bedroom of the villa in silence and picked up the white paper on the desk to check.

After waiting for a long time, he frowned and muttered:

"Who is Viscount Jonas Addison?"

……

Brian gripped his "wand" tightly, and after a series of "flashes", he reached the gates of the Starry Sky Tavern.

At this time, the street where the Starry Sky Tavern was located was empty, there were no pedestrians, only rows of street lights were on, which was why Brian dared to stop here.

Putting away his "wand", Brian pushed open the door of the tavern, stepped inside, and walked all the way to the front desk, where he saw Miss Alain Bell dressed as a maid.

"Good evening, Miss Alainbell."

Brian greeted him with a top hat, looked left and right, and didn't see Sherlock's figure.

At this time there were very few customers in the tavern, only one or two, and Miss Arambell seemed to be very idle, sitting at the front desk with nothing to do.

When she heard Brian's voice, she got up from her chair and bowed in a low voice:

"Good evening, Mr. Brian."

Straightening up, Miss Arambell looked at the puzzled Brian and spoke:

"Sherlock is not there, you can ask me about anything."

Finally, she added:

"Of course, the reward is taken from the magic lamp."

Brian smiled slightly awkwardly, nodded, and without going around the bush, he directly said the trouble he encountered.

When the matter was almost finished, he finally asked:

"Miss Arambell, do you know what this is and what can be done about it?"

Alan Bell listened quietly, like a doctor listening to his patients.

"The phenomenon you are talking about should be that a 'gambler' took the fate of that viscount and made the viscount a 'luckless'."

The term "gambler" had been heard by Brian from a leader of the Goddess of Nature Church, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

What he was really curious about was Miss Alainbell's last word.

"Unlucky?" Brian repeated it in a low voice, and then asked:

"What's that?"

"To put it simply, a 'lucky' is someone who has lost all his destiny." Alain Bell replied softly.

"When the 'unlucky' loses their fate, everything about such people in the world disappears, or is replaced by 'gamblers' who plunder their fate, and they are no longer able to influence the world."

"And the 'unlucky' himself will slowly die in a world without fate."

After a pause, Alain Bell continued:

"Under normal circumstances, 'gamblers' plundering the fate of others will not leave such traces."

"This happened because the 'gambler' wanted to replace the identity of the viscount, but for some reason he gave up halfway, and the state of the viscount was also different."

"If I'm not mistaken, the viscount can interact with the real world when the moon shines at its brightest. When the moon's luster dimmed, the Viscount became a true 'unlucky'. ”

"Because the moon has enhanced powers......"

After listening to Miss Alan Bell's explanation, Brian felt that he had learned a lot and learned more about the extraordinary profession of "gambler".

"And what should I do to rescue the viscount?"

Through Miss Arambell's description, Brian knew that everything strange in the manor was created by Viscount Jonas Addison, and that as long as the other party was rescued from the "unlucky" state, the matter could be solved.

As a result, Miss Alan Bell pursed her lips slightly, shook her head, and said:

"No, the only way is to recover the lost fate of that Viscount, or to put the fate of another person on the Viscount, otherwise he can only be a 'Lucky One' until he dies ......"

This matter was not directly related to Brian, but he didn't want Viscount Jonas to die like that, and he wanted to save the other party, so he heard a little desperate. Finally, he was reluctant to give up and asked:

"Is there no other way?"

Alain Bell inadvertently curled the corners of his mouth and nodded:

"There is a compromise, but it does not solve the problem fundamentally, it is only temporary."

The way to compromise is also the way, Brian's gaze regained his brilliance, and he continued to ask:

"What's the solution?"
