Part 3 The Traveler Chapter 232 A New Diary
Inside the quiet hotel room, the dark and deep radio receivers were instantly back to normal, and the light around them was no longer eerie.
Klein busied himself with the preparation of the ritual, sacrificing it to the gray mist, before he was in the mood to think about the answers he had just received.
Based on the clues provided by “Magic Mirror” Aroldus, combined with the answers of Mr. Aztec and “Serpent of Destiny” Will Ensettin, Klein had a preliminary plan for the next stage.
That is, not just want to rest a little bit to return to Beckland, but this metropolis as a long period of time as the main place of activity, to see if you can steal from the Church of the Goddess of the Night’s St. Samuel’s Church that the Antigonus family notes.
If it was determined that there was no way to do so, then attempts were made to switch to a similarly extraordinary route, and if this did not work, then the last route would have to be taken to the main peak of the Honachos Mountains.
”Well …… back in Berkland definitely can’t use the identity of Sherlock Moriarty openly, unless one wants to fish out Ince Zangwill or one of the hidden factions of the royal family, but it is possible to change back to the identity of Sherlock Moriarty when contacting acquaintances or drawing on the resources of the Church of Steam.
”In short, it’s time to use a new identity again, and it has to be thoroughly differentiated from Germaine Sparrow, ergo, this time, don’t go directly back to Prize Harbor, make a detour from the Dixie Bay side, and make sure to make it impossible for people to find out where it came from.” Klein’s thoughts were electric, and he soon had a clear idea.
After initially determining the direction, he wanted to extract the blood and go above the gray mist to use his spirit body to explore the “Grocer’s Travels”, but considering that he still had the tarot meeting in the afternoon, he lay back on the bed again, resting in relaxation.
……
The “Future” is traveling smoothly in the undulating waves, the “Star General” Gadelia stood by the window, looking at the open to the edge of the landscape, while the foredeck position, from time to time, Nina’s voice of anger, she scolded Frank Lee to get out of the a bunch of beef-flavored mushrooms that reproduced very quickly and loved fish.
With a silent sigh, Gabrielle raised her hand and pushed up the heavy glasses that rested on the bridge of her nose.
At this moment, her inspiration suddenly touched her, and she looked down at the desk, only to see that there were a few more yellowed papers there at some point.
”The Archon’s diary …… she finally sent a messenger ……” Gadelia turned around with joy and picked up the small number of papers that were more like an initial test.
By the time three in the afternoon, having forced herself to memorize the symbols, she saw a tidal wave of illusory crimson light flooding her own.
Beneath a towering dome of stone pillars, Kadriya the Hidden saw a similar crimson glow rise up as a blur.
Without looking, she realized that the familiar glasses had naturally appeared on the bridge of her nose, seemingly a perfect replica of the outside world.
Then, out of the corner of her eye, she caught Ms. “Justice” rising gracefully and greeting the topmost head of the long bronze table in a brisk tone:
”Good afternoon, Mr. ‘Fool’.”
Audrey was indeed in a good mood lately, after returning to the family castle, she had successfully helped her mother, Mrs. Caitlin, to solve some psychological problems stemming from her actual age and physical state in the form of a good daughter, and had received very good feedback, which had made her summarize more rules of how to play the role of a “psychiatrist”.
One of the most important was to help people with their mental problems, which she suspected was why the name of the potion was “psychiatrist” and not “psychologist”.
”Justice” Ms. very happy well …… Klein seems to be infected, smiling and nodding, as a response.
In the process, he found that Mr. “upside down man” seems to be preoccupied, seems to be hesitating and struggling, not yet made up his mind.
Huh, this means that Mr. “Hanging Man” can afford to buy the “Ocean Singer” magic potion formula and the main materials, but will pay a huge price, I thought he would apply for installment payments …… Mr. Klein “The Fool” retracted his gaze and looked around the room.
When Ms. Justice’s greeting was over, Gadelia “The Hidden One” looked to the top of the long bronze table and said:
”Dear Mr. ‘Fool’, I have collected three pages of Rossel’s diary.”
Coming …… I wonder if the three pages of the diary specifically selected by the “Queen of Mysteries” will contain valuable information, such as the one corresponding to the path of the “Diviner”. I wonder if the three pages selected by the “Queen of Mysteries” will contain valuable information, such as the whereabouts of the “Blasphemy Card” that corresponds to the path of the “Soothsayer”, which will provide me with another possibility …… Klein spoke calmly and naturally, while inwardly looking forward to it:
”Very well, you may think of a request.”
”Yes, Mr. ‘Fool’.” Gadelia responded with an attitude that couldn’t be picked out at all, and then requested to manifest the contents of the diary.
Seeing her behave like this, and thinking about how she was in her dream world, Klein was actually quite pleased, just like a classroom teacher who succeeded in making a student well-behaved and understanding.
”The first time Ms. ‘The Hidden One’ provided Rossel the Great’s diary eh, with the caliber and ability she showed, there shouldn’t have been no way to collect it before …… Well, in the past, she was more of an observer, and the last time she was Mr. ‘Fool’ punished and really integrated into our Tarot Society?” “Justice” Audrey made a certain judgment in combination with “The Hidden One” Gadelia’s performance last week.
At the same time, she also noticed that Mr. “Inverted Man” was not in the right state today, as if he was expecting something, but also reluctant to give up something, so she was quite curious for a while.
Klein didn’t have to wait long before the three pages of the diary materialized and came into his hands.
Derek “The Sun” and the other members of the group instinctively quieted down so as not to disturb Mr. “The Fool” in his reading.
”February 9th, to-day, is the birthday of Benoit, who is already a healthy, sturdy, honest, good-natured young man, and who is so pious as to be valued by the Church.
”Everyone is congratulating me, saying that Bonoit is sure to become a Favorite, a Holy Ghost, praising him for his faith, which is so pure, so immaculate.
”I should have been happy, but I had an uncontrollable sadness in my heart; I wanted my child to be a little more human, to be a little more affectionate, to be more himself than a follower of the gods.
”But almost everyone thinks from the bottom of their hearts that Bornova is in a good state now, Matilda does, Char does, my nobles my ministers do, and only Bernadette feels the same way as I do, and she has told me privately that she thinks people should be a little more themselves as long as they don’t hurt anyone.
”My heart grows heavier as I think of those words of Charatu’s at the birth of Benoit, and of the growing foreboding I have had since I stepped into the realm of the demigods, lovely angels, oh, lovely angels indeed.
”Is this your defense against me?
”Is this your way of trying to control me?
”No, you probably can’t understand the pride I have inside me, so what if it’s a god in my opinion? I can take their place!”
”On February 11th, another unsuccessful attempt to contact Charatu was made.
”Ever since getting that Antigonus note, this head of the Secret Society has been appearing less and less frequently, not knowing what he is secretly plotting, and anyway, k certainly won’t tell me.”
”On February 12th, a magical item was made for Bernadette that suits her well.
”It allows her to effectively avoid the nagging of the ‘Hidden Sage’, as long as she doesn’t actively pray and actively ask for a response, and, well, the item also seems to help the Saints enter that easternmost relic of the Divine War on the Sunia Sea without being subjected to the ‘Real Creator ‘ ravings, there’s a high probability that the secret of the ‘God’s Abandoned Land’ is hidden there ah.
”Ha, I just casually made a small gift for my daughter, and it has such a powerful effect, Bernadette, your old man I really am the world’s most outstanding ‘craftsman’!”
The most outstanding “artisan”, does this mean that when the Great Emperor wrote this diary page, he had already gone to Sequence 2 of the “Generalist” pathway, and had become an angel? With the existence of the “God of Steam and Mechanics”, this level is the pinnacle of what an “artisan” can achieve. …… No wonder the “Mystic Queen No wonder the “Mysterious Queen” can freely enter and exit the Divine War Ruins, it turns out to be a gift from the Great Emperor, indeed, a child with a parent is like a treasure …… Klein inwardly sighed with emotion.
In addition, he also read between the lines of the first diary entry to find out the suppression and indignation of the Great Emperor Rossel, and used the reading comprehension skills he had honed in his last life to taste out some of the information hidden underneath the content:
After becoming an angel, the emperor seemed to be subjected to the steam church’s clampdown and defense, the “God of Steam and Machinery” has exerted a certain influence on his youngest son Benoit, so that he became the most devout believer, and in the future can enter the “perfect place” to become an angel. The kind of angel.
This not only did not make Rossel the Great yield and scruple, but on the contrary aroused his heart of resistance.
”The fact that the Great Emperor became the world’s public enemy later on was from this kind of resistance?” Klein nodded in his heart.
At the same time, he had noticed the matter of Charatu, suspecting that this “Miracle Worker” had started to attack the Sequence 1 rank precisely after obtaining the Antigonus family notes, and had planned a lot of things for this purpose, only to have something go wrong at the time of promotion and become a monster. Of course, just like what “Magic Mirror” Aroldus said, maybe Charatu didn’t lose control, but was just hiding something, scheming for something.
After a quick skim, Klein turned the page and looked to the back, which was not consecutive and was new:
”On the fifth of October, several followers of the ‘primordial moon’ were captured by the organization of men in black that I had established, failing to complete the appropriate sacrifice rituals.
”Something they exhibited intrigued me; the power they received really seemed to originate directly from the Crimson Moon.
”Unfortunately, a great deal of data suggests that this Crimson Moon is really a satellite, really revolving around our planet, so how does it combine the physical with the mystical?
”With my current abilities, it’s not impossible to travel above the red moon, at best it’s more cumbersome and difficult, but it doesn’t seem necessary.”
”On October 7th, I finally made up my mind.
”I will attempt to switch to the similar ‘Secret Peeper’ pathway, the only way I can become Sequence 1.
”I’ve always suspected that the ‘Hidden Sage’ was originally conceptualized as a Unique, and then, due to some accident, developed a spirit and awakened completely, so the odds are that the Sequence 1 position for this pathway is still vacant!”
