Part 3 The Traveler Chapter 199 – A Sideways Answer
Derek “Sun” Derek, who was at the center of attention, was not rushed and could not wait to speak:
”In the meantime I have followed the exploring party led by the ‘Chief’ to the town of Afternoon.
”This is the way to the ‘Court of the Giants’, the gateway that separates myth from reality.”
He began well enough to pique the interest of the members of the Tarot Society, each posturing in different ways as they waited up for what was to follow.
Derek omitted the less important experiences along the way, and began directly with the arrival in the town of Afternoon, first describing the gray and dead landscape, then how the trio found the basement altar, and how he himself was able to distinguish the names of Urolius, Medici, and Saslir, and unknowingly entered the other side of the town to see titles such as “Dark Angel” and the name of “The Dark Angel”. How did he recognize the names of Urolius and Medici and Saslir, how did he unknowingly enter the other side of the town, and see titles such as “Dark Angel” and the phrase “Redeeming Rose”?
At this point, he thanked Mr. Fool once again for helping him out of his predicament.
Derek then briefly introduced the monster that his shadow had turned into, focusing on the penitent cleric in the half-collapsed church.
He repeats the sentences in his own words, and mentions that the acolyte was about to speak the name of the fourth King of Angels when he suddenly self-destructed and was burned to ashes by transparent flames.
Another King of Angels is known! And the atmosphere of the town in the afternoon was really gloomy and frightening, and the confession of the acolyte had a very, well, prophet of disaster feel to it …… Audrey listened with rapt attention, very curious about the two names that blanked out on their own and could not be named.
Just then, “Sun” Derek turned sideways, looked to the topmost head of the long bronze table, and asked reverently:
”Mr. ‘Fool’, who tempted ‘Dark Angel’ Saslir? And who does the fourth name represent? Why can’t you say it.”
Coming …… behind the gray mist, Klein s smile nearly stiffened.
He had hurriedly thrown the little “sun” back to the real world earlier because he was afraid that he would ask similar questions!
At that time, he was worried about the little “sun” asked the “dark angel” Saslir related, and now encountered a much more impossible to know the answer to the question.
Fortunately, magicians don’t do unprepared performances, after that day, Klein had undoubtedly seriously considered how to answer similar questions, at this time, he had a clear idea in his mind, his right palm gently fell on the armrest, his eyes contained a meaningful smile and said:
”Because it’s hidden.”
He used his eyes and body movements to imply that the members of the Tarot Club that this “secret” is not the normal meaning of the word secret, there is a deeper and more specific references, but what exactly is, you self-comprehension, the gods have a deep hidden meaning.
After completing this series of actions, Klein couldn’t help but confess in his heart that he was getting more and more like a godly man, and at the same time, he also lamented that the peeping of the “hermit” sometimes had to be attributed to his own inducement, because Mr. Fool would make additional hints with his eyes and body movements. Mr. “Fool” would give extra hints with his eyes and body movements, and all the members would subconsciously observe K’s attitude.
It can’t be helped, how can I pretend without this …… I’m not really an evil god! Klein inwardly sighed.
Cryptic? The name itself equals secrecy? Is that what Mr. “Fool” was trying to suggest? Uh, which names are secret in and of themselves …… sequence 0 true gods of this level? “Inverted man” Alger instantly thought of a lot of things, and combined with the small “sun” previously told some things, have a certain guess.
When the name itself has become a secret, it means that this matter involves a true god, and it is very likely that the “Goddess of Night” is involved, because she is the “Mother of Secrets”! “The extremely dangerous darkness of the “God’s Abandoned Land” confirms this point. …… “The Hidden One” Gadelia made a decision based on her own knowledge and Mr. Fool’s hints. “Based on her own knowledge and Mr. Fool’s hints, she made an uncertain deduction.
At the same time, she was almost certain that the great catastrophe referred to by the clergyman was the “cataclysm” that would end the Third Age.
The tempted King of Angels, the fallen inhabitants of Afternoon Town, the city-state that had been corrupted little by little, and the black “flower of catastrophe” that had blossomed, which had buried an epoch and created a “godforsaken land”… …What a heavy sense of history …… Gadelia couldn’t help but sigh in her heart for a few moments.
While the members of the Tarot Club were thinking, “Fool” Klein was also analyzing why the name was blank and why he couldn’t say it:
”Could it be the true name of the deity? The one who tempted ‘Dark Angel’ Sasriel was a true god, and the king of angels represented by the fourth name later became a true god?
”But it’s not like I haven’t talked about the true names of the deities, the ‘Original Witch’ Chick was recognized as being on the same level as the Seven Gods, and as a result, not much happened ……
”Maybe it has something to do with the language used? Rune, Intis, Forsak, and even Ancient Forsak are all languages that can’t pry the forces of nature, whereas the Giant Language, which is common in Silver City, can, and it should be this type of language that that acolyte used.
”Turn around and try reading Chick in Giant? Then, died on the spot, death-defying success …… forget about it, and a name blank a name can not be said, the performance is also different …… also do not know what the reason.”
At this time, see the little “sun” confused, can not understand the “fool” Mr. meaningful tips, “upside down man” Alger took the initiative to explain:
”Those two names may represent two gods, and that’s why they’re unspeakable.
”Perhaps it was the ‘True Creator’ who tempted the ‘Dark Angel’ Saslir, which led to the fall of several Angel Kings and the residents of Afternoon Town, bringing about a great disaster, so that only k in your ‘God’s Forsaken Land’ possesses temples and idols.
”The King of Angels corresponding to the fourth name may have gained great benefits from the disaster and succeeded in ascending to become a True God.”
This is similar to my guess, but it’s something that can’t be said with certainty. …… “The Hidden One” Gadelia didn’t bother to add anything, she didn’t think that her own guess and that of the “Inverted Hanging Man” was the truth of the matter. She did not think that her and the Hanged Man’s guesses were the truth of the matter.
Audrey “Justice”, “Magician” Forsyth and “Moon” Emlyn listened very attentively, while involuntarily sighing in their hearts when discussing similar things, the Tarot will always seem particularly high-end. appear particularly high-end, what the King of Angels, what the evil gods and true gods, what ancient secrets, all just a term.
”So ah …… I see.” “Sun” Derek was enlightened, and once again sincerely thanked Mr. “Fool”.
He was about to turn back to his body when he suddenly remembered something and asked with some concern:
”Mr. ‘Fool’, is the key to leaving the ‘Godforsaken Land’ really in the ‘Giant’s Court’?”
After all this time, he had already accepted Mr. ‘Fool”s claim that the area where Silver City was located was the ‘God’s Forsaken Land’.
I think so, but the problem is, I can’t be sure ah …… Instead of searching for the beach, we should explore the “Giant’s Court”, it should be “Shepherd” Lovia’s suggestion, which can be a side proof of my judgment. This can prove my judgment from the side, but it can not be ruled out as a conspiracy …… “Fool” Klein’s smile is once again close to stiff.
His thoughts quickly changed, and he quickly thought of a way to answer the question without lowering Mr. Fool’s status.
He let out an easy laugh and looked sideways at the “Hidden One”, Gadelia:
”Speaking of which, heh, Bernadette already knows how to enter the ‘Godforsaken Land’.”
Immediately recalling the vaguely remembered dream image, Gadelia subconsciously looked towards the topmost head of the long bronze table and said:
”Is it that projection?”
Before she finished her sentence, she suddenly realized that she was gawking at Mr. Fool again, and hurriedly closed her eyes and said:
”I, my ‘peeping eye’ belongs to instinct, it can only be strengthened, it can’t be closed, it must rely on magical items to seal it ……”
And there is none here.
This way ah …… Klein gently nodded:
”You can manifest a pair of glasses out of it.”
”Yes, Mr. ‘Fool’.” As instructed, Gadelia manifested the glasses.
In the process, Klein slightly pried the power above the gray mist and incorporated them into the glasses.
When she put them on, she was surprised to find that the “Eye of Secrets” was sealed.
”The magician Forsyth and the others didn’t realize until then that Ms. Hidden’s eyes were so special and related to “peeping” that they could be used without opening them!
No wonder we didn’t notice anything, Ms. Hidden One suffered a serious trauma because of peeping at Mr. Fool …… “justice “Audrey moved her lips in a dazed manner, clearing up an earlier confusion.
And the thought of “The Hidden One” sizing himself up and wearing the Stormtrooper’s clergyman’s garb here made Alger “The Hanged Man”‘s face nearly turn black.
Without waiting for the members of the crowd to calm down, “Fool” Klein responded to “Hidden One” Gadelia’s question with a low smile:
”It’s that projection.
”The projection of the ‘Giant’s Royal Court’.”
”So that’s the projection of the ‘Giant King’s Court’……” “Hidden One” Gadelia whispered in surprise.
Immediately, she thought in a bit of a trance:
She should know the answer to this too ……
”Derek “Sun” took a few seconds to digest the conversation between Mr. Fool and Ms. Hidden One, and vaguely understood the fact that entering the “Godforsaken Land” was a very difficult task. “The key to the Forsaken Land was related to the projection of the Court of Giants!
So, the key to leave the “Godforsaken Land” really lies in the “Giant’s Court”? “Sun” Derek shuddered inwardly and bowed his head with some excitement:
”Thank you for your answer, Mr. ‘Fool’.”
Hoo…… Klein breathed a quiet sigh of relief, only to realize that such a scene simply consumed too many brain cells.
”Inverted Hangman” Alger, on the other hand, collected his emotions, glanced around, and looked at “The Hidden One”:
”Where is the projection of the ‘Giant’s Court’?”
He didn’t dare to ask Mr. “Fool” about this, because he had been rejected before in the question of “God’s Forsaken Land”.
Kadriya answered frankly:
”In the easternmost part of the Sunia Sea, in the dreamland of the night.
”I was about to share with you some of what I saw on this trip there.”
Audrey “Justice” and Voorhees “The Magician” slowed their breathing and waited with interest for the “Hermit” to tell what must have been a wonderful experience.
