Part 6 The Light-Exporter Chapter 12 The Prophecy
Germaine Sparrow disappeared …… Bernadette had already had a certain premonition when that unusually frightening messenger returned, and roughly grasped what exactly had happened, so after listening to the other party’s feedback, she only had a slightly sullen expression, without too obvious a reaction.
The “Mysterious Queen’s” azure blue eyes like condensed oceans instantly became even deeper, briefly losing focus, as if she was peering at the torrent of destiny through Renette Tignicole.
Two or three seconds later, Bernadette’s eyes snapped shut, as if an unreadable glare had appeared ahead of her.
A blood-colored liquid vaguely dripped from the corners of her eyes, setting off her face that was actually a bit pale.
”Mystic Queen,” Bernadette spoke in a slightly ethereal voice with her eyes just as tightly closed:
”Germaine Sparrow is in great crisis, the darkness is devouring the light, and there is only a ray of light left.”
It was a prophecy.
Sequence 3 of the “Secret Peeper” pathway was the “Master of Prophecy”.
The four blonde, red-eyed heads that Renette Tinicol carried spoke in sequence:
”That ……” “Darkness ……” “Symbolization ……” “What ……”
Bernadette kept her stance from earlier and said:
”Desolation, aberration, doom, negativity, error.”
Without letting the head in her hands speak again, Renette Tinnicol in her long, somber, complicated dress dropped Bernadette’s letter and gold coins, turned and walked into the void, disappearing from the room.
Bernadette, the “Queen of Mystery”, stood still for several seconds without making any movement.
Finally, she reopened her eyes, her azure eyes were misty and dull, and seemed to need more time to regain her sight.
Bernadette thought for a moment, reached out her right hand, and gave it a false tap.
The tablecloth retracted on its own, and unfolded again, replacing the items it carried with itself from ritual-related to a fountain pen, paper, and ink bottle.
The fountain pen suddenly leapt up, as if held by an invisible spirit, and flew on the paper to write down the disappearance of Germaine Sparrow.
The captain’s cabin of the “Future” in the Sunyan Sea.
”Star General” Kadriya looked at the fried mushrooms on the plate, smelling the aroma of fat, and did not pick up her knife and fork for a long time.
Suddenly, inspiration struck her, and she looked sideways to where the brass sextant lay, realizing that a letter had somehow been added there.
With an instant smile, Kadriya probed over, picked up the letter, and eagerly unfolded it to read.
Gradually, her brow furrowed.
”Germaine Sparrow is missing ……,” whispered Gadelia, repeating up the key elements of the letter, feeling keenly that the matter was somewhat serious.
She easily grasped the meaning of the Queen’s letter to herself, and without hesitation, she bowed her head, crossed her arms, and chanted an honorific name in the ancient Hermetic language:
”The Fool who does not belong to this age ……”
Above the gray mist, the crimson star representing the “Hidden One” then “came to life”, expanding and contracting visibly, and opening up a circle of light containing the prayer.
They intertwined with the ripples created by the two crimson stars corresponding to the “Magician” and the “Sun”, and like a tidal wave, they surged towards the ancient and majestic palace.
……
”Someone is praying to Mr. ‘Fool’ again …… The echoes are stronger, and the cacophony in my ears is more pronounced …… Well, it’s a little clearer to hear the The image is also a bit clearer …… This time the prayer seems to be to Ms. ‘The Hidden One’, the only one who likes to wear ancient wizard robes ……
”The ‘Queen of Mysteries’ has found out that Germaine Sparrow is in trouble? Although I had previously feared that he would die this time and take some time to be resurrected, and there were hints ahead of time that members of the Tarot Society might cancel next week’s gathering, they were only hints, no formal notice, and not clear enough, and when Monday came and there was no response, they would surely panic, pray, and make contact, and find out that Mr. ‘The Fool’ was missing as well, nay, had taken the the ‘world’ away with him.” Klein eased his inner feelings with a self-tirade.
He glanced at Amon, who was walking next to him, and without words, he lifted the leather lantern in his hand and said:
”It should have gone out long ago.”
Amon, who wore a pointed fedora and black wizard’s robes, nodded slightly and said:
”I have it in a magical state that allows it to stay glowing for a week without fuel.”
Klein mused for a moment and said:
”This is a ‘fraud’ on the laws of nature?”
Amon turned his head sideways, looked at Klein for a second with his monocle-wearing right eye, and grinned:
”Brilliant.
”Sequence 3 of the ‘Wrong’ pathway is a deepening of the ‘Fraud Master’ called ‘Deception Mentor’.”
It’s pretty much the same as I guessed …… However, the ‘Wrong’ pathway isn’t the only one that can do similar things, the ‘Black Emperor’ can ‘twist’ the laws of the ‘Black Emperor’ by ‘twisting’ the laws of the ‘Black Emperor’. “The Black Emperor” can do it by “twisting” the laws and “utilizing” the rules. …… Klein mentally compared the difference between the “Stealer” and “Lawyer” paths. “The difference between the pathway.
At that moment, Amon stroked his chin and asked with interest:
”There are less than three days left, and it will be too late if you don’t think of a way to escape.
”Are you going to make a new attempt today or tomorrow?”
”…… You guess.” Klein piled on a smile and responded to K’s question with a routine that the other party was good at.
Frankly speaking, in the matter of escaping, Klein didn’t think that the more attempts one made, the better the results would be.
On the one hand, frequent attempts could indeed test the boundaries of Amon’s ability, consume the “things” that K had stolen before, and lay a good foundation for the final battle, but on the other hand, it would also expose Klein’s own cards, after all, he was in a passive state, with no chance to prepare, and in order to force Amon to show more means, he could only play his for the few good cards.
If his own response was completely figured out by Amon in one attempt, Klein couldn’t think of any chance of escape for himself.
Escape attempts were a double-edged sword that could cut one’s self if one was not careful!
Because of this, Klein didn’t act blindly, cautiously planning within himself.
As they spoke, he and Amon walked out of the city-state that had first worshipped the Fae King and later believed in the ancient Sun God, where all that remained were white bones and a badly weathered stone building showing the bustle that this place had once possessed.
Beyond the city-state was a barren wilderness that could not be seen even under the light of lightning.
……
At 7 PINSTER STREET, Leonard sat on a sofa, resting his feet on the coffee table and leisurely flipping through today’s newspaper.
Yesterday’s death of George III had brought extreme hustle and bustle, and he, who had been on duty all night, had been given five hours’ vacation today.
After two hours’ sleep, Leonard woke up refreshed and tried to understand the current situation from the regular reports.
In fact, as a Red Glove captain, he knew more than the reporters in some areas, such as the outskirts of Birkeland, where the ruins of Tudor had collapsed into a larger lake, nearly affecting Dawn Dantes’s Maege Manor, and the death of the man who blew himself up at Memorial Day Square. For example, George III, who blew himself up in Remembrance Day Square, was not a real person, and the collected remains disappeared into thin air that night.
Of course, Leonard was certain that George III was dead, and that the First Prince was about to inherit the Crown of Byron and the Crown of Rouen.
At that time, the “source of the castle” appeared strange, this matter and the “fool” Mr. must have a small connection …… Klein has long warned George III will be a problem! …… The reaction of the three major churches is very strange, even the most easily led by the impulse of the Storm Church, is not too angry …… Leonard flipped through the newspaper, while randomly dispersing his thoughts.
Just at this time, the slightly aged voice of Palles Zoroaster resounded within his mind:
”Gelman Sparrow’s messenger is here.”
Leonard snapped his head up and saw that the angelic messenger in a long, somber and complicated dress had somehow appeared in front of him.
The four blonde, red-eyed heads that Renate Tynecol was carrying spoke one after the other:
”Gelman ……” “Sparrow ……” “has encountered ……” “Greatly ……”
”The ……” “crisis ……” “is now ……” “has disappeared ……”
Klein is in danger, missing and gone? Leonard retracted his legs at once and stood up.
Without waiting for Palles Zoroaster to give a hint, he blurted out in a flash of inspiration:
”In connection with the death of George III?”
”Yes. ……” “He ……” “destroyed the ……””George ……””III … …”””s ……”””becoming a god …… “”Ritual ……”” said Renette Tignicole as the eight red eyes of her four heads looked at Leonard at the same time.
The Ritual of Becoming a God? Although Leonard was anxious, he was still startled by this phrase.
Can be held into the ceremony of God, no matter how low is also a sequence 1 angel, Klein can directly participate in this level of things …… “Fool” Mr. plan? Leonard’s green eyes flickered slightly, relying on his rich experience, he asked straight to the core:
”When you last saw Klein, what condition was he in?”
Renate Tynecol’s four blonde, red-eyed heads bobbed up and down as she said:
”Possibly ……” “Being ……” “Charlatan ……” “hunted ……”
As a messenger of Germaine Sparrow, this “ancient evil” could sense that his employer had also left the ruins of Tudor after his escape.
The one who knows the most about the methods of an “ancient scholar” is undoubtedly a higher serializer of the same path, so Charatu will definitely intercept and pursue him.
Chaleton? The leader of the Secret Society, Sequence 1 Angel Charatu? Leonard was worried about Kraven while feeling awe and shock at the “colorful” life of this former colleague.
At that moment, within his mind, Palles Zoroaster spoke in a low voice:
”Ask k what other clues he has.”
Leonard immediately complied and asked the question.
Renate Tynicol seemed to know that Leonard was not a simple man, and repeated the prophecy of the “Mystic Queen” one word at a time, one head at a time.
After listening, Palles Zoroaster was silent for a while before sighing:
”Error ……
”I probably know the situation your former colleague is in now.”
Leonard subconsciously wanted to ask a follow-up question, but ultimately resisted the urge because of the presence of outsiders.
Palles paused for a moment and continued:
”The ‘Source Castle’ stirred and attracted Charatu, so how could Amon not notice?
”This should already involve the ‘Source Fortress’ contention.”
”The Source Fortress”…… Leonard slowly inhaled a breath and said to Renette Tynicol:
”He may have fallen into Amon’s hands.”
When that messenger lady nodded all four heads in the same direction and turned to leave, Leonard immediately sat down, crossed his arms, closed his eyes, and made a prayer:
”Fools who are not of this age ……”
