Part 3 The Traveler Chapter 32 The Legend of the Ancient Gods
Above the endless gray fog, the magnificent palace stood quietly.
Emlyn “Moon” White, who was here once again, had just regained his sight when he saw Ms. Justice from across the room looking towards the top of the mottled table, greeting her in a light tone:
”Good afternoon, Mr. ‘Fool’~”
Audrey “Justice” greeted them in turn, starting with “Yugi” and ending with “World”.
This order was not based on the seating arrangement, but followed the law of tarot cards, with “The Fool” being the beginning of all possibilities, and “The World” being the end of perfect sublimity.
It was a bit of a compulsion on the part of the occult enthusiast Miss Audrey, which appeared after the Tarot Club became more and more organized.
What a well born, carefree girl …… Emlin made a pretense of deep judgment and politely responded to the other party s greeting.
During this process, he swept the corner of his eye to the “sun” next to him, and couldn’t help but think of the last few days in the house of the “Baron” of Weimandi to learn the detailed history of the blood race.
Indeed, there are a lot of details that I do not know, professional researchers and amateur enthusiasts are really different, but, from this week onwards, I, Emlyn White, will be a professional researcher …… Baron Weimandi has not mentioned anything about Silver City, I can not ask directly, as the Savior of the Blood Race who is burdened with a hidden secret, must be sufficiently cautious in similar aspects. aspects must be cautious enough …… Half a day listening to lectures, half a day going to church, and accompanying the mannequins in the evening, this kind of life seems to be not bad …… Emlyn s thoughts gradually fanned out.
Suddenly, he frowned and realized a very important question:
”Why do I still go to the Church of the Harvest every day?”
Well, as a noble blood, there must be a beginning and an end to things, and recently there have been many more patients, hey, it’s not a good thing for the reputation to spread …… “Moon” Emlin’s frown gradually stretched and became softer.
He saw the “justice” Ms. has completed the greeting, reached out and knocked down the table, looked at the other side said:
”What you need ……”
”Justice” Audrey pressed her right hand down in a stop gesture, then said with a light smile:
”Wait for the trading session.”
”This is a reading time that belongs to Mr. ‘Fool’.”
By the tone of Mr. Vampire’s voice, there is at least one of the fruit of the Elder Tree and the blood of the Mirror Dragon……. Audrey, you’re about to become a “psychiatrist”! Soon to be a middle-order extraordinary person! Audrey’s mood is getting happier and happier, and the corners of her eyes are smiling.
She looked towards the figure in the fog and said in a rising tone:
”Dear Mr. ‘Fool’, I’ve got three more pages of Roselle’s diary~”
Only four more pages to go …… she thought with pursed lips.
With Ms. “Justice” as a demonstration, “Magician” Fools also spoke up:
”Mr. ‘Fool’, I have three new pages of Roselle’s journal here as well.”
She was also looking forward to the Tarot Gathering, as the digestion of her second copy of the “Apprentice” potion was progressing much faster than expected, and the day before yesterday had completely solved the hidden problem.
”Sun” Derek was close behind:
”Great Mr. ‘Fool’, I have transcribed some of the legends of the ancient gods.”
Then, he added to the “Inverted Man”:
”The list of monsters in the surrounding area is also organized.”
What a real child ah, do not need to be reminded …… harvested a lot of Klein leisurely sigh.
Truly, there’s no progress at all …… Although this will make it less difficult for me to obtain benefits, the risk of losing Silver City’s resources also lurks …… Exposure is a problem that must always be guarded against… … “Inverted Man” Alger shook his head imperceptibly.
Roselle’s diary and the lore of the ancient gods quickly materialized, flashing into Klein’s palm.
He quickly skimmed through them and realized that two of the six pages were duplicates of previous ones, such as the one contributed by Ms. Justice, which matched the one submitted by the Hanged Man last year.
This is something that can not be avoided, unless I can make them really learn Simplified Chinese …… Klein sighed darkly and used his mind to transfer those two pages to the end of the diary.
The remaining four pages of the diary did not contain too much valuable information, most of them belonged to the period when Russell lost his ideals and became obsessed with money, filled with “what I invented today”, “what I’m going to invent tomorrow”, “how many gold coins I sold”, and “how much money I sold”. How many gold coins I sold” “How much investment I got” and other sentences, looking at Klein almost couldn’t control his expression, just wanted to slap these diaries to Russell’s face.
At this time, “Justice” Audrey also keenly noticed that the “Black Emperor” card had returned, quietly covering the side of Mr. “Fool”‘s hand.
Is it really a gift to help him accomplish his mission? Well, there’s another possibility: this is the new Blasphemy card, not the original one! Audrey speculated with interest.
After flipping through the diary, Klein resisted the urge to take a breath to calm down, and turned his attention to the legends of the ancient gods provided by the little “sun”.
This is a relatively rough account, dividing the eight ancient gods of the Second Era into three camps, the Giant King Olmir, the Elf King Sunyasolem, and the Vampire Initiate Lilith are allies, fighting against the “Dragon of Imagination” Angle Weed, the Immortal Bird Initiate Grecian, and the Fae King Kevahituun, and the Demon Monarch Faibuti and the Demon Wolf of Destruction Freglar belong to the group that wants to subvert the order. Flegra is an existence that wants to subvert the order of things and contaminate all living beings.
In Silver City’s records, all eight ancient gods were described as tyrannical, evil, cruel, and horrifying, and even Lilith, the Vampire Patriarch who had the most normal appearance and was known as the ’embodiment of beauty’, had a disgusting and hideous side to her, such as, taking the form of a fleshy mass comparable to a mountain range, with all sorts of reproductive organs growing on it and spewing out a thick black mist that Constantly creating all sorts of strange creatures, any strong person close to k would be dominated by the desire to mate and reproduce, and become a walking corresponding organ.
And the beings who saw this scene, except for the other ancient gods, none of them lost their minds, or mutated on the spot, or became insane, and the account of Silver City originated from the canon of the Giant’s Royal Court, which is, of course, what they claimed to be.
Can not be ruled out is the denigration of allies …… this manifestation and blood after praying to the “primordial moon” after the loss of control is quite close …… this is the “moon” path to the end of the characteristic This is one of the characteristics of the “moon” path to the end? Thinking of this, Klein almost raised his head and swept Emlyn White away.
In the legend of Silver City, Lilith, the vampire originator, did indeed reign over the red moon, and as long as k wanted, k could make every day of the year 365 days a blood moon, letting the power of negativity ravage the earth, and letting the spirit world interact with reality for a long period of time, letting out countless unspeakable monsters and evil spirits.
This is the power of the gods ah …… also do not know whether there is a difference between the ancient gods and the current true gods, how are they all like an evil god …… In the legends of the blood race, Lilith is not like this, between them and the Silver City, there is a party that is lying? Or there is a certain change in the middle, Lilith from the Silver City records to the appearance of the blood legends? Klein withdrew his eyes and jotted down the details.
He let the paper disappear from his hand and leaned back slightly:
”You may begin.”
”Justice,” Audrey said instantly, looking brightly at Emlyn White:
”Mr. ‘Moon’, is there any information on the Tree of Elders fruit and Mirror Dragon blood?”
Emlyn tapped his chin and said:
”A total of 750 pounds.”
”For such a sum, they will be yours.”
”And, of course, my payment, one hundred pounds.”
Audrey didn’t even bother to figure out how much the total was, and responded with delight:
”Deal!”
”I’d like to finalize the deal today or tomorrow.”
”No problem.” Emlyn “Moon”, who was about to earn 100 pounds, couldn’t refuse Ms. “Justice”‘s request.
Terrific! Audrey dropped her right hand, clenched it into a fist, and shook it lightly twice.
At that moment, Alger “The Hanged Man” gave Mr. Vampire a sideways glance:
”Do you still want the estate of the blood baron? 4,500 pounds, that’s the best price I got for you.”
In reality, that pirate was willing to take off his hands for £3200.
Emlyn’s expression instantly became a little twisted.
If it’s only 1000 pounds, I definitely want it, but …… he responded in his mind.
Although their family were all pretty good apothecaries and doctors, earning not a small amount of money each year and living long enough to deserve to be able to save a considerable amount of wealth, ever since he became obsessed with mannequins, Emlyn could no longer save any money, and would occasionally take the initiative to order them.
Even counting the £100 he had yet to reap as a reward, his personal savings were less than £500, to which Detective Inspector Sherlock Moriarty had contributed £150.
”I-I’ll think about it.” “Moon,” Emlyn spoke with difficulty, suddenly feeling that he should find some way to save money quickly.
Emlyn the guy made a sound of poverty …… Seeing this scene, Klein flirted pleasantly in his mind.
He, who was friends with Mr. Vampire in reality, had heard the other mention that the money spent on dolls over the years totaled more than 7,000 pounds, which made Klein rather sigh at how expensive the dolls were and how extravagant Emlyn was.
”No problem.” “The Inverted Man” did not rush.
He turned to look at “Justice” Audrey:
”Honorable lady, the artisan has completed the production and obtained a rather magical item.”
”It allows you to literally change your appearance and master the three extraordinary abilities of fire manipulation, damage transfer, and danger intuition, improving your balance and agility, it is a silver-white mask, as well as a hat, earrings, and it can change its own shape, which you can name it.
”Of course, it has its own little flaws, when you wear it your emotions are amplified and you have to know how to control yourself or things can easily go wrong.
”It costs £5,500.”
Speaking of which, “The Inverted Man” gave a light laugh and said to “The World”:
”£4500 for the extraordinary characteristics you provided, and £1000 for the craftsman’s production value.”
4500 pounds, much better than I expected, although it will have to be divided by 15%, or 675 pounds to Mr. “Inverted Man”…… Klein immediately manipulated “World” and nodded in agreement:
”No problem.”
Emotions are amplified? According to Mr. Yslante, when I’m promoted to “psychiatrist”, I’ll have the ability to influence other people’s emotions and mental states, and I should be able to do the same for myself. …… Well, that flaw isn’t a problem! “Justice,” Audrey nodded lightly:
”I will pay within two days of receiving that magical item.”
In order not to expose the secrets of the Tarot Society, she had to wait until she had the item exactly before she could seek reimbursement from her father, Earl Hall.
”Can.” “Inverted Hanging Man” didn’t have the slightest worry about Ms. “Justice’s” credibility.
It’s rich …… “Moon” Emlyn and “Magician” Voorhees were stimulated at the same time.
Phew…… Klein breathed a quiet sigh of relief, which meant that his three thousand pounds would soon be available.
Thank you, Ms. Justice! He silently drew a Crimson Moon in his heart.
