Volume VII Inverted Man Chapter 13 sense of urgency
Doomsday …… Although Audrey “Justice” had long known about the prophecy of doomsday from the demigod of the Church of Knowledge, she had always lacked a sense of reality about it, and had always felt that it was propaganda used to deceive the public.
Even though she had already been through a war in which she was an unusually small individual, she didn’t think that the world was only a decade or so away from Armageddon.
There was no sign of that at all!
But now it was Mr. Fool’s dependant, the ever-trustworthy Mr. World, who had dared to beat up on the angels, who was speaking of the prophecy of the end of days, and with such assurance that it seemed as if he had already seen what was going to happen in a decade or so.
Audrey instinctively chose to believe it, and her heart plummeted with a mixture of nervousness and panic.
In addition to this, she also felt her confusion subside for a moment – there were still a dozen years to go before the end of the world, and even a drowning person would struggle for a bit, let alone a Sequence 4 Demigod who was in perfect condition.
Doomsday …… As the cardinal of the Church of the Storm, “upside down” Alger has recently read a lot of prophecies of the end of the day, but those who have no way to confirm the things how to compare to the “world” Germaine Sparrow exceptionally solemn reminder. Sparrow exceptionally solemn reminder, the two bring the impact is not on a level.
At the same time, he also keenly noticed a detail, that is, “the world” said that the gods will be destroyed.
Alger’s first thought was that Germaine Sparrow had been disrespectful to Mr. Fool, who was also a god.
But he quickly dismissed this idea, after all, the “world” Germaine Sparrow is Mr. Fool’s dependents, is the most devout believers, the rest of the members of the Tarot Club may still have a certain possibility of accidentally blasphemy in words to the “Fool”. “Mr. Fool, the “world” Germaine Sparrow that is absolutely impossible.
Based on the premises that “Germaine Sparrow would not disrespect Mr. Fool” and “He said that even the gods would be destroyed,” “The Hanged Man” quickly came to the conclusion that “The Hanged Man” would not be a good person. “Alger quickly came to another conclusion:
In the heart of the “world” Germaine Sparrow, Mr. “Fool” is higher than the true God!
This …… Alger never doubted the insight of the “world” Germaine Sparrow, after all, this is a strong man who often dealt with angels.
This kind of knowledge makes him surprised and doubtful, and for a moment he could not find a more reasonable explanation.
With the blood of the “Serpent of Destiny”, he was promoted to demigod, and “The Hidden One”, who corresponded to Sequence 3 and was called the “Master of Prophecy”, occasionally dreamed of the end of the world, plus the “Queen of Mystery”, who was the “Queen of the World”. Together with the reminder from time to time from the “Queen of Mysteries” Bernadette, she was not surprised or shocked by the words of Mr. “World” just now, but only had the feeling that the dust that had been raised had finally fallen to the ground.
For the future, this “occultist” is also confused, in addition to improving themselves, do not know which direction to push.
Doomsday …… “Judgment” Hugh and “Magician” Forsyth looked at each other across the “Hermit” lady, sensing the shock that had risen in each other’s hearts. They sensed the shocking waves in each other’s hearts.
They had never imagined that the life they thought was so beautiful would last for more than ten years at the most, without any other accidents.
At that time, they were in the prime of their lives, and even if they had not yet become demigods, they did not have to worry too much about the increased tendency to lose control brought about by physical aging.
Because the person who spoke was Germaine “The World” Sparrow, neither of the two women doubted the truth of the prophecy of the end of days, and they were both frightened and heavy-hearted for a while.
At first, “Sun” Derek could not contain a certain amount of frustration, because the Silver City had just left the apocalyptic abandonment of God to the world of light, and it will not be long before a new doomsday will be greeted.
He quickly adjusted his mindset and chose to believe in Mr. Fool.
Since this great being was able to save Silver City from the Godforsaken Land, he was also able to prevent the end of the world.
Although I am the savior of the blood race at the end of the day, I never thought that the end would come so soon …… I am only a count …… “Moon” Emlin couldn’t help but frown slightly, like a student who has only been attending classes for a few days. It was as if a student who had only been attending classes for a few days suddenly had to take a test.
Of course, this is the same let him a little excited, after all, he will not be long before he will fulfill his mission, in front of his own people to show their greatness.
”Star” Leonard had heard about the doomsday prophecy from old man Palles Zoroaster, and although he didn’t know why it would develop like this, he had already been somewhat mentally prepared, and at this time, he was the first to come back to his senses, and opened his mouth to ask:
”Why would the end come suddenly? Now there is no sign at all ……”
Klein responded by manipulating the dummy “World”:
”It’s just that you guys haven’t noticed the signs.
”Did you all think that a divine war would break out for no reason?”
Seeing that all the members of the Tarot Club were shocked and in thought, “World” Germaine Sparrow added:
”The exact reason you are not qualified to know for the time being, that mere knowledge will all bring about a contamination that is hard to resist, and only existences of angels and above will be able to counteract it.”
This is similar to what that demigod of the Church of Knowledge said …… also close to the contamination of the stars …… I seem to have forgotten something …… “Worlds “Mr. seems to have understood the original story …… He is not afraid of being contaminated? He, he has been an angel? It’s k?Thought after thought flashed through Audrey “Justice”‘s mind, keenly aware that Mr. Germaine “World” Sparrow may have completed his ascension to become a true mythological creature.
In ancient times, this could even be called a slave god, a member of the gods!
Immediately afterward, members of the Tarot Club, such as Alger “The Hanged Man” and Gadelia “The Hidden One”, deciphered that fact, and knew that Germaine “The World” Sparrow had reached the top of the world of reality, and had become one of those who walk the earth! Gelman Sparrow had risen to the top of the real world and had become an angel walking on the earth.
Some of them speculated that this had something to do with Germaine Sparrow’s previous plot against a mythological creature, while others believed that it was the benefit of Mr. Fool’s further resurgence for the dependents.
But in any case, for the first time, the Tarot Council had a member of the Angelic Realm, minus its presiding officer and convener!
Of course, they were not too surprised by the promotion of “World” Germaine Sparrow to Sequence 2, and had long since become numb.
Klein maneuvered “The World” and made him look around the circle and said:
”You guys can think about what you plan to do after this next, and what you’re going to do about it.”
Hugh “Judgement” and Voorhees “Magician” and other members of the Tarot Club nodded slightly, indicating that they knew.
After that, there were another ten or so minutes of free exchange, and this Tarot Gathering gradually came to an end.
……
Back in the real world, Hugh looked around her bedroom and her expression sank a little.
She felt that urgency once again.
Walking out of the room, Hugh saw that Voorhees also came to the corridor at the same time, no longer having to paralyze for a while before coming out as usual.
”Where are you going?” Both men spoke at the same time, then fell silent at the same time.
A few seconds later, a clean-cut teenager stepped out of the other guest bedroom, wearing narrow-framed glasses and slightly shaggy hair, his hands clasped over several thick books.
”Crap, forgot I had class this afternoon!” The teenager muttered as he rushed towards the stairway, completely ignoring the two ladies.
He was Hugh’s younger brother, Lo Dilcha, who had just enrolled in a school geared toward bar prep exams.
–In Birkeland, one had to pass the matriculation exams before becoming a trainee solicitor, and a trainee solicitor needed to study and work under a barrister for at least five years before being allowed to take the qualifying exams and be licensed as a solicitor.
If one wanted to go further and become a barrister, one had to go to Birkeland Bar School for a university education.
Hugh watched his brother stomp down the stairs with an involuntary smile on his face.
She whirled around and looked up, addressing Forsyth:
”I’m going to go back to MI9 and try to do something.”
”I’m going to make a trip to Sensei’s.” Voorhees also answered the question from earlier.
Immediately afterwards, the “traveler’s” figure flew transparent and disappeared.
In a few seconds, Voorhees appeared in the reconstructed Pritzker Harbor and arrived in front of a house that was still in good condition.
She took a pen and paper out of her hidden pocket and wrote a note to tell her teacher that she had finished digesting the Traveler’s Potion.
Putting away the blotting pen, she slipped the piece of paper into the letterbox by the door.
This was not Dorian Gray Abrahams’ residence, but the place where Forsyth and the gentleman had agreed to deliver the message.
When Voorhees came back here the next day, he would see the place and time Dorian had given for the meeting.
……
Emlyn opened his eyes in his own room and changed into his stand-up coat for the outing, intending to pay a visit to the Marquis de Nibes.
As he passes through the Rue de la Luna in his carriage, he subconsciously glances out the window and is somewhat startled and not quite surprised to find the doors of the Church of the Harvest open.
After a brief hesitation, he motioned the coachman to pull over and paid the fare.
Putting on his bowler hat and taking his cane, the bright red-eyed Blood Count ascended the steps and entered the Harvest Church to see the Father Utrafsky, who seemed to have grown a little taller, bending his back and sweeping the prayer hall.
Sure enough, it has been released …… What a protective custody …… Emlin secretly shook his head.
At this time, Father Utravsky raised his head and looked at him and said:
”Wipe the candlestick.”
”…… I’m pleasing the Mother Goddess.” Emlyn grunted, walked to the back room, changed into the brown clerical robes of the Earth Church, and began to labor.
Neither he nor Father Utravski spoke again, each doing what they were doing, trying to bring cleanliness and peace back to the Harvest Church.
After an unknown amount of time, a bunch of people suddenly came in the doorway.
Emlin subconsciously looked over and saw Baron Casimir Odera, Viscount Ernest Boyar, who had once come to Harvest Church to “work”, as well as a number of familiar faces.
The corners of Emlin’s mouth unknowingly curled up.
