Chapter 17 Delegation

Above the vast gray fog, Klein pulled one Tarot member after another from the real world to the meeting. Looking at the dark red stars lit up above the gray mist, Crane inexplicably had the illusion that he could control everything at any time.

Don't think of yourself as a god anymore...... After a brief moment of delusion, Klein quickly woke up and admonished himself. After becoming a demigod, Crane often had the feeling of wanting to turn everything around him into a secret puppet.

This made Klein feel quite uncomfortable, and he thought that it was most likely the reason why there was some residual spirit of the one at the top of his extraordinary path. These remnants will give Klein a considerable degree of delusion, altering his self-perception and unknowingly "becoming" the very top deity.

And this situation is especially serious for Mr. "Fool", who now has the essentia of "Source Castle".

Of course, Klein didn't know that Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun had already woken up once in advance before, although that time did not have more impact on Klein's own spirit, but Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun's casual arrangement also made Source Fort semi-unconsciously exert influence on Crane.

This is the terrifying force at the top of the sequence.

……

The three ladies "Justice", "Judgment" and "Magician" huddled together and gathered at the home of Miss "Justice". Audrey Hall chatted with Forth and Hugh to pass the time before the Tarot meeting began, and this time they were ready to act collectively to assist Mr. "The World" in completing Mr. "Fool's" mission.

Audrey picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip of tea. She paused slightly, and spoke to the two beside her:

"Well, Miss Folth, Miss Hugh, do you think Mr. 'Fool' will Tarot assign any task this time?"

Listening to Miss "Justice's" slight tone, a cheerful tone, Furth with deep dark circles on her face.

She sighed slightly, she was quite envious of Miss Justice's happy state—but she remembered that Audrey had the courage and consciousness to be promoted to the "Hanged Man" route that she didn't like too much in order to protect her family, and her envy of Audrey fell a little more.

You must know that even if it is an adjacent path, there is a risk that each time you change your own path, it will get out of control, and this must be greater than a normal promotion.

Although, for some, in exchange for power, they don't mind how they look.

But Firth knew that it was impossible for a girl like Audrey, who had been favored by her parents since she was a child and had excellent appearances, not to have some negative feelings about the "Cardinal of the Rose", a sequence of battles that relied on flesh magic.

Miss Justice also has something she wants to protect...... With a slight sigh, Furth used the knife and fork in her hand to cut a piece of the precious pastry made by the chef of the Hall family in front of her, and put it into her mouth:

"Probably, it won't be too difficult."

After feeling the taste of the cream melting in his mouth, Furth spoke, guessing with the help of his family's associative ability:

"Perhaps we have to figure out step by step what His Majesty the current Emperor wants to do, like reasoning. By finding connections among all sorts of things, we can investigate what Mr. Fool wants to investigate. ”

"Well, that's a real idea, but it can be quite difficult. Ah, but the only place for us to receive His Majesty the Emperor is at banquets and various celebrations. ”

Audrey's eyes lit up, and then she said with some loss: "And it's a little too difficult to spy on a king of angels." Maybe...... Furth, the method you are talking about is what Mr. Fool wants us to do. ”

Seeing the sparkle in Audrey's eyes, but then she became lost again, Furth could not bear to do anything to strike the young noble lady again.

She also wrote about reasoning...... Perhaps it is a family with a mixture of various characteristics, of course she knows how many clues will be involved in this kind of thing, and it is very likely that two unrelated things will come together to become the emperor's final plan.

But sometimes, in the absence of that critical information, even the best detectives may not be able to get to the bottom of the matter.

However, Hugh on the side spoke directly:

"The process will definitely be difficult, after all, it is a commission from Mr. 'Fool', who needs our help because he has no way to use his power in the real world."

Hugh, you're so direct...... Furth glanced at his companion and didn't say anything, just moved the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a heartfelt smile:

"yes."

When she thought of this task, she naturally thought of the Tarot Society, and she inexplicably diverged to the fact that in a few days her teacher would come to find her and help her become a Sequence 5 "Traveler".

Foirth was so proud because she didn't relax too much in Beckland this time. Therefore, under the record of Beckland's own new customs and customs a few days ago, she has completely digested the magic potion of her "Recorder", and has the ability to promote Sequence Five anytime and anywhere.

She felt that she was in unexpectedly good shape, and that the desire to be "about to be promoted" came from an extraordinary trait, and Furth felt extraordinarily happy.

- and then she stayed up all night, which is also the origin of the dark circles on her face.

It's like everyone knows that going to bed early and waking up early is a bit good for the body, especially if you have to wake up early. Foirth also knew that today was Mr. Fool's party, and she needed to prepare well so that she could be in a better mood when she attended the meeting.

But man does have a kind of inertia that makes Furth feel like he is confined by the bed, trapped in the bed and does not want to move.

Well, I feel like Furth is very happy, is it because she mentioned earlier, is she going to be promoted to Sequence Five? I'm really envious, I'm only in sequence six now, and I don't know when I'll be promoted to "shepherd".

Mr. Gao Wei also reminded me that I should not switch my ways until I was a demigod, otherwise the tendency to get out of control would be even worse.

Audrey thought with some regret, but she was still sincerely happy for her friend. After a few moments, Audrey felt a crimson star flicker in front of her eyes, and after a brief psychedelic moment, Audrey found herself in front of her with an endless gray mist.

Mr. "Fool's" tarot meeting began...... Audrey lifted the hem of her skirt and greeted everyone at the tarot meeting as she had done before. After a while, under Audrey's warm-up, this tarot meeting gradually kicked off.

Only this time, before the people of the Tarot Society could submit the diaries they had collected during this period of time, they heard the "fool" sitting high above the gray mist gently tap on his armrest, and said to the people in front of them in a far-reaching voice:

"After this meeting, the collection of diaries is suspended."

"Russell Gustaf has been resurrected."

While thinking like this, Klein still had some regrets in his heart, he had read a large part of the diary written by Huang Tao, but there were still some that had not been circulated and he had no way to obtain them.

Although most of the diaries had been collected and read, he still wanted to see what kind of work Huang Tao had done before he died.

Although Klein felt that such behavior was a bit excessive to him, Crane really needed these slightly unconscionable anecdotes.

But now that Huang Tao himself has been resurrected from his own cemetery, of course, Klein can't peek into Huang Tao's diary without his permission.

But after that, you can ask Gao Wei and them in the dark night to see if you can pull Brother Huang Tao into the meeting formed by a few of our traversers......

After carefully speculating on the thoughts of the Night Goddess and others, Klein still believed that their current relationship with Gao Wei had a subtle harmony. Gao Wei himself is quite good to Klein and his family, at least in Klein's opinion, Gao Wei poured out his sincerity.

However, the identity of the outer god is a natural barrier - Crane believes in Gao Wei, but he can't completely let down his guard against Gao Wei. In the same way, for the true creator and the goddess of the night, Crane's choice will not change, and he will be wary of these gods.

He knew that several gods who were also traversers did have different feelings for his fellow countrymen, and it could be regarded as a kind of longing for the earth and his hometown. However, after he was promoted to become a demigod, he felt the influence of divinity on humanity even more, and if he blindly believed in this emotion, Crane was likely to be terribly betrayed in the end.

Klein didn't mean that the friendship between him and the time-travelers was just a cold exchange of interests, a false friendship. It's just that even human beings have quite complex emotional characteristics, let alone gods who are precisely affected by divinity.

Klein was suspicious of them, and they were jealous of each other, and there was no way to give up their trust.

But this does not affect their own feelings, which are already precious to mythical creatures, and they cannot be asked of more. Klein, who is now gradually accelerating his transformation into a mythical creature, knows this emotion better.

Crane came back to his senses, but found that the crowd in front of him was silent, and he knocked on the table:

"In the meantime, a few of you who have now come to Beckland, and I will give you a mission."

This is still not relieved from the resurrection of Russell...... Klein thought leisurely, although there had been rumors of Russell's resurrection before this, they were still shocked by it.

Because this is the declaration of Mr. "Fool", in the realm of the gods, it is equivalent to "truth".

Russell Gustav turned out to be resurrected. In this way, isn't there another true god in this world? Audrey came back to her senses and forced herself to turn her attention to Mr. Fool, as did the others.

Crane craned his chin and said casually to the crowd in front of him:

"The investigation is about the assassination of Duke Negan a few months ago."

"My dependents will be in charge of the main investigation, and when the time comes, I will pay you according to the difference in your contribution to it."

Mr. "Fool" was rewarded...... Mr. "The Hanged Man" Mr. Alger suddenly felt his heart fluttering, and he felt quite interested in it. But after much thought, he suppressed his emotions, coughed lightly, and did not rush to Beckland.

In about a week or two, the "Priestess" lady will be exploring the pristine island she has always wanted to explore, and Alger has not had time to be distracted from other things lately.

I had to give up...... Alger watched with regret as the others reacted.

Audrey Hall, the "justice" lady on the side, suddenly moved in her heart, and she thought of the dead Duke Negan again, and couldn't help but feel some emotion in her heart.

She chose to use her own strength to protect her parents because Duke Negan was assassinated, if you have to say, Audrey now chooses to become a "Bishop of Rose", which also has a certain relationship with the assassination of Duke Negan at that time.

This made Audrey hesitate slightly, and chose to ask Mr. "Fool" in front of her:

"Dear Mr. 'Fool', I would like to know that the assassination of Duke Negan is also related to what we are investigating?"

"That's right."

Klein says:

"About 'Adam.'"

……

Adam...... Adam!

Alger's eyes widened suddenly, as if he didn't expect that Mr. "Fool" was actually giving this answer.

- Wasn't the cause of Duke Negan's death at that time acute physical exhaustion? This is normal birth, old age, sickness and death, how can it have a relationship with Adam, the king of angels?

Alger still clearly remembers that before Beckland's accident, there was a rare thunderstorm, and thunder and lightning fell from the sky and reduced a large area where Duke Negan was to ashes-

Everyone in the Church of the Storm speculated that this was the Storm Lord's divine punishment, but Duke Negan was not in his mansion at the time, so the Storm Lord's actions at that time were blamed on his discovery of the demons lurking in Beckland.

Although it was clear to all the extraordinary above the angel that this was impossible, this did not prevent ordinary people from praising the nobility of the Lord of the Storm.

In the subsequent investigation, Duke Negan, who did not die due to lightning strikes, died of a sudden illness in the following days - this is the final report from the Church of the Storm and the royal family.

It's a little late, and now it's ready to be sent out after the modifications.
