The Tarot Session Before "The Fool" Awakens (Part 2)

The latest website: ["January 1, 1184, grand New Year's party, Mrs. Fronard is really a beauty."]

["On September 24th, Miss Insaka is more charming than Mrs. Fronal. Maybe I am just missing my youth."]

["On October 2, they actually decided to get me engaged to Matilda of the Abel family without consulting me in advance! Oh my god, I haven't even met her yet!"

["October 5th, Miss Matilda is so beautiful."]

["On October 6th, her personality and temperament are what I like. I'm starting to look forward to our marriage."]

["January 16th, the witch tastes really good."]

["On March 17th, were all the wives of Intis so open-minded? Did I fall in love with her, or did she fall in love with me? It always feels a little weird."]

["On February 23, 1143, it has been more than a week since I traveled to this world. I have to write something and express certain things, otherwise I feel like I will go crazy.

"Hey, I write in simplified Chinese. No one can understand it. The world is full of alphabetic characters!

"I am Russell Gustav now, but I will never forget my real name.

"Huang Tao!"]

Looking at the translated diary contents on the screen, "Justice" Audrey, "The Hanged Man" Alger, "Judgement" Xio, "Magician" Forsi, "Hermit" Cattleya These members who had provided a large number of Russell's diaries looked at each other a few times, with a little embarrassment in their eyes.

"Could it be that all the diaries we handed over to Mr. Fool contain such inappropriate content?" Audrey recalled a scene in a Tarot session where Mr. Fool admitted that he was "fascinated" and quickly shook his head in denial. My own guess, "Maybe... maybe it's just that the diary in the hands of this old Mr. Nighthawk is not serious? It's definitely not content like this that can fascinate Mr. Fool."

Alger, the "Hanged Man", forced himself to focus on the last item and muttered the term "travel":

"Roselle is a time traveler, and this Klein is also a time traveler, so he can understand the so-called 'simplified Middle Kingdom text' left by the other party... Well, since Mr. 'Tower' can translate it, it means that he also understands it. , so they and Mr. Fool actually come from the same place? Or from the same world?"

Danitz in the auditorium also whispered: "This is the Emperor Russell who the captain has always admired? He is indeed the man who invented the condom!"

Susie, who was sitting next to him, tilted her head and said: "The date jumps greatly, but the content is very similar. Is this artificially put together?"

Hearing her words, Xio, Forsi, and Cattleya on the side of the ancient bronze table nodded at the same time. Based on their understanding of Abner, this was indeed something he could do.

In fact, this is indeed a diary that Abner deliberately put together. After all, the film's duration is limited, and it is impossible for him to put in all the plots of the original work. He can only select some parts that are helpful to human nature and edit them together.

In addition, he also deliberately left out the content of the first Tarot session, so that Mr. Fool's identity was not exposed from the beginning.

There has to be some suspense... although smart people have roughly guessed it.

Abner glanced at Colin and Palles in the auditorium, and then returned his attention to the plot of the movie.

[..."I forgot that Susie can open doors with handles...What's the sound? No!" Audrey heard a crisp sound coming from inside, suddenly had an idea, and rushed into the laboratory.

What she saw was the cup that had been smashed to the ground, the last drop of silvery white liquid that the golden retriever Susie had licked off.

Audrey stood dumbly at the door, like a statue.

Susie, the big golden retriever dog, immediately sat upright, looked at her owner with innocent eyes, and wagged her tail. 】

[Off the coast of Pulitzer Harbour, on an island that is always shrouded in storms, an ancient sailing ship is parked in the port.

The man with soft yellow hair and a lightning-patterned robe looked at Alger Wilson across from him and said with great confusion:

"Alger, you could have returned to the kingdom and become the captain of the Punisher Team or a respectable bishop. Why did you choose to go to sea and become the captain of the Blue Avenger?"

There was no extra expression on Alger's rough and profound face, and he replied solemnly:

"The sea belongs to the storm. This is the kingdom of the Lord. I am willing to follow the Lord's will and patrol this kingdom for her."

"Okay." The yellow-haired man clenched his fists and said, "The storm is with you."

"The storm is with you." Alger responded with standard courtesy. 】

At the same time that Klein started his career as a "Nighthawk", scenes of Audrey and Alger also appeared in front of everyone.

Miss "Justice" almost covered her face when she saw her reckless and immature self on the screen, but when faced with the gazes of others, she still kept smiling and said: "This is what happened before. There is no Mr. Tower here." The destiny of the world is still consistent with our world here."

"The Hanged Man" Alger also nodded and said, "It's the same here."

However, some doubts arose in his heart: Why did the "Fool" have himself on his journey to becoming a god? Isn't Mr. Fool already recovering at this time? Could it be...

[...In the destroyed Blackthorn Security Company, Dunn Smith turned his head and looked at Klein, with a gentle and relaxed smile on his pale face, and his voice was as mellow as ever:

"We saved Tingen."]

[In the Raphael Cemetery in Tingen, Klein lifted up the coffin, stood in front of Dunn's tombstone, shook his head and sighed:

"I don't know who I am now, maybe I'm just an evil spirit crawling out of hell and wanting revenge..."]

[In the park in Tingen, Klein, who had just laid down to rest, was pushed awake by the police, who said viciously:

"Can't sleep here!"

"The streets and parks are no place for you lazy bums who don't want to do anything to sleep!"

"This is the provision of the Poor Law!"]

The screen quickly showed Klein's life in Tingen for more than two months, with only some scenes of "Miss Justice" and "The Sun" in Silver City interspersed. Although due to the lack of what happened in "Origin Castle", Many of Crane's actions are confusing, but it still roughly shows him making friends with Mr. Azik, trying to get rid of Ince Zangwill's control, and finally fighting and dying with Megoos at the Nighthawks station. The whole process of resurrection.

Seeing this, even though he had completed his revenge, "Star" Leonard's fists clenched again. He was silent for a few seconds and said:

"Except that Cohen Leigh did not die, what happened here is basically the same as on the screen..."

Mr. "World" encountered such a terrible incident when he was only at Sequence 8. He is really an amazing gentleman... But such a hero was kicked out of the park by a policeman and had to wander all night... I don't know why, I really want to Crying... "Justice" Audrey pursed her lips, and finally rejoiced in her heart: Fortunately, the Poor Law has been amended with the Queen's intervention.

After "The Hanged Man" Alger saw the scene of Klein breaking out of the ground, combined with his previous incredible performances, he became more and more sure of the guess in his heart. He couldn't help but sigh and thought: In other words, is the great existence that I was initially in awe of and made many guesses about its origin just a Sequence 8?

No, as a time traveler like Russell and "Tower", perhaps he is destined to be extraordinary... In a sense, he can also be regarded as a resurrected ancient god... right?

And he could tell that Leonard, who was more concerned about Klein, also saw the clues. After thinking for a few seconds, the gentleman looked directly at Abner next to the top seat and asked thoughtfully: "Your Majesty the 'God of Truth,' may I ask what the relationship between Klein and Mr. Fool is?"

Hearing Leonard's question, Abner naturally guessed what the other person was thinking, but he did not answer directly. Instead, he pointed at the screen and displayed some of the pictures that he had previously hidden:

[...There was a brief silence above the gray mist for a few seconds. Klein chuckled lightly, his tone was calm and his voice was low but not deep, as if he was responding to a polite greeting from a visitor:

"An attempt."]

[...In the row house on Narcissus Street, Klein paced back and forth, and finally compiled a spell directed at himself:

"You are a fool who does not belong to this era. You are the mysterious master above the gray fog. You are the king of yellow and black who controls good luck..."]

Huh... Leonard exhaled, because this was not the worst outcome he imagined, but the fact that Klein was the "Fool" still made him feel unreal.

At this time, Daniz, who had been watching the movie quietly, seemed to have finally woken up. He opened his eyes wide and asked, "What does this mean? That 'divineer' just now is the 'Fool'?"

"Is this obvious? His Majesty the 'God of Truth' said that the name of the film is "The Fool's Journey to Godhood", and the protagonist is Mr. Klein. Doesn't that explain the problem?" Susie tilted her head and said, Explained a little bit.

Hearing this, Daniz looked around and found that no one was surprised except himself. Even the big man and the vampire who didn't look smart were just in a daze and seemed to be remembering something. But there was no look of surprise.

】

So... I'm the only one who's worse than a dog? Daniz suddenly felt that this was a more "cruel" fact than the fact that "The Fool" was Klein.

The film did not stop because of Danitz's self-doubt, and Backlund's story soon played on the screen.

Involved in the Intis ambassador incident, he hired Miss Sharon as a bodyguard, killed the "Puppet Master" Rosago, took Sharon to catch an adulterer, and other wonderful stories were staged one after another.

There are also some scenes of Audrey "routine" Xio and Forsi interspersed in the middle.

["A fool who does not belong to this era..." Xio, who had just finished reciting the ancient Hermes language, was stunned for a few seconds, then he suddenly sat upright with a flick of his back. 】

[And I still recited it in unprotected ancient Hermetic language... I'm so stupid, why should I discern it with my heart and recite it silently... Hugh looked around in fear, afraid that a monster that could not be described in words would suddenly appear in the quiet house. . 】

"It turns out that without Abner, you would have become a follower of Mr. Fool under the guidance of Miss Justice." Forsi said to Xio with a smile.

Xio had expected this and was not too surprised. What she was thinking about now was another thing: Sherlock Moriarty... This seems to be the interrogation I had in Ambassador Intis' chamber. Detective... In other words, the person I was interrogating was Mr. Fool himself?

"It seems that I prayed to Mr. Fool for help not long after I interrogated him..." Xio's memory was very good, and he immediately recalled Abner's hesitant expression after hearing about this. With an expression on his face, he sighed: "It turns out that he knew the details of Mr. Fool at that time... That's right, Abner is probably from the same place as 'The Fool' and Emperor Russell."

On the other side, "Temperance" Sharon was slightly dissatisfied with the development of the story after "Caught in Rape" because she seemed to have no more interactions with Klein in that world and were just ordinary friends...

"Moon" Emlyn looked at himself being fooled around by Sherlock, and kept comforting himself: This is all the arrangement of the ancestor, and it is the duty of the "savior of the blood race".

But soon, the secret conversation between Qasimi and Nibaisi in the picture broke his illusion.

[Qasimi asked:

"Why did you choose Emlyn White? What's so special about him?"

Nibais Audra laughed:

"Didn't he keep clamoring to pray to the 'Fool'? Didn't he think that we didn't pay enough attention to his problem, were unwilling to be enemies of Bishop Utravsky, and wanted to find other help?

"I will fulfill his wish this time."]

Did the so-called ancestor’s revelation lie to me from beginning to end? Emlyn stared blankly at the big screen, his face full of disbelief and confusion.

Seeing this, Daniz, who had just recovered from the blow, wanted to mock him about his self-introduction as "the savior of the blood race", but when he thought that the other person was a genuine demigod, he shut his mouth tightly.

He couldn't offend anyone at this party...no, maybe not just people.

At this time, Abner said kindly: "Emlyn, there is no need to be depressed... As far as I know, you are indeed the one most like Lilith among the vampires."

Especially when it comes to “hobbies”.

Hearing the "God of Truth"'s affirmation, Emlyn's eyes suddenly brightened up. He wanted to ask more about what made him most like his ancestor, but the "movie" played the exciting part again.

Everyone's attention was suddenly attracted by the picture displayed on the screen.

[In a hidden ruins, Klein's right hand loosened and tightened, tightened and loosened again, many times in a row.

Seven or eight seconds later, Klein opened his eyes and the corners of his mouth turned up exaggeratedly.

He reached out and grabbed the revolver, turned around suddenly, and rushed out.

Wearing a black double-breasted gown, he raised his right hand and aimed at the altar. 】

"What a kind and brave gentleman!" Everyone sighed in their hearts, not only for Klein's kindness, but also for his courage.

This is the purest "humanity" glory! The members of the Tarot Society somewhat understood why Mr. "Tarot" asked everyone to watch this movie.

Because these are the most precious things about Mr. Fool as a "human", and they are the key to his awakening.

As for the maritime adventure after the "Great Smog", except for Daniz's part, the rest was not shown too much. After a few scenes, it was passed over with narration. Abner only played it in front of Sharon alone. A little bit of the dream that Crane had when he was playing Admiral Aemilius, but no one else saw it.

As for the plot of playing Yin Lian to assassinate Tracy, Abner completely deleted it.

[I, "Fire" Daniz, the fourth boatswain of "Vice Admiral Iceberg", a well-known pirate with a bounty of 3,000 pounds, how can I be treated like a servant!

Neither my dignity nor my reputation allow me to accept such an insult!

Klein saw "Fire Flame" Daniz turning into stone and standing there motionless, so he gave him a cold look.

Daniz's body suddenly trembled.

He took a breath and replied with a smile that was uglier than crying:

"OK."】

[Klein looked at it for a few seconds and said calmly:

"You have two choices, one is to climb out by yourself and hang there conspicuously, or the other is to let me hold up your collar and hang there conspicuously."...

After weighing for a second, Daniz half-raised his hands, gritted his teeth and said with a smile:

"I will do it myself."】

[Danitz glanced at Gehrman Sparrow and said with a smile:

"You definitely won't tell others what you just saw, right?"...

Klein nodded slightly:

"I will clarify this with your captain."]

A series of interesting scenes filled the ancient palace above the gray mist with a cheerful atmosphere. Even Susie couldn't help but wag her tail and change her sitting position.

Daniz was the only one who felt chilled all over and thought in his mind: Even if that pretty boy becomes a god, he is still not a good person... such a god!

Fortunately, the captain is not here...

Abner glanced at him with a smile, and then played the subsequent plot quickly, until the war between gods broke out in "Origin Castle". Klein exhausted all his methods, and finally had to rely on who dared to "fight desperately" Advantage, killed Amon, but he had to fall into a deep sleep before stopping.

[The corners of Klein's mouth turned up exaggeratedly:

"I won't lose much, just myself."

"There are always some things that are higher than others."]

[Klein lowered his head, looked at the "magic mirror" in his palm and said:

"Are you scared?"

On the surface of the ancient silver mirror, the water light swayed, and pale words were outlined:

"Not afraid."

The next second, Arrods followed the rules and asked his own question:

"Great Master, are you afraid?"

Klein's mouth moved slightly and he said:

"Afraid."

After saying that, he stepped forward, took the "magic mirror", walked towards the green and black mist in the middle of the strange light door, and penetrated it. 】

The film ends here, but the people in this ancient space above the gray fog cannot calm down for a long time.

Even though the ladies "Justice" and "Magician" have become demigods, their eyes are still red, and Sharon can hardly control her own sadness.

Leonard clenched his hands tightly, and after a long while he relaxed and said: "Fortunately, this is just a story from another world, and we have the 'God of Truth' here, and Amon's body has long since fallen."

At this time, Alger no longer bothered about the fact that "The Fool" was just an ordinary person in the beginning. After all, he became a god in three years. Is this something that "ordinary people" can do?

He prefers to believe that this is the resurrection of the ancient god.

"And looking at all the remnants of the past, including Klein, Russell, the Goddess of the Night, the Ancient Sun God, and even the 'God of Truth' in our world, each one is at least at the level of a true god!

"They are not ordinary people, right?" Alger tried hard to find excuses for his previous thoughts.

Well, that was definitely not something he was overthinking.

After watching "The Fool"'s journey to becoming a god, Derrick "The Sun" and Colin also felt relieved. "The Fool" and the "Ancient Sun God" were gods from the same place, and they successively obtained Silver City. Belief, in a sense, maybe this is also a kind of "inheritance".

At the same time, they were also full of awe for the era before the First Age.

"So that's it..." Pales nodded thoughtfully, and then glanced at the "God of Truth" strangely.

Because after watching the movie, this "old angel" discovered that the so-called "consolidating human nature" movie did not have much effect on awakening today's "fools", because the situation of "fools" is very different from that in the movie. .

Abner also removed the screen while everyone was reminiscing, and mobilized the power of the "Unknown Land" to cover Klein, who had been quietly moved to the top position by him.

The next moment, Klein, who had fallen into a deep sleep while holding a small mirror, suddenly woke up. He raised his head and looked around, only to find that he was already sitting in the seat of "The Fool", and members of the Tarot Club, including Abner Everyone is already here.

Before he could take a closer look, Abner, who returned to his seat, stood up first and led everyone in salute:

"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool~

"Welcome back!

"Also, Klein, happy birthday to you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, "Justice", "Magician", "The Hanged Man", "Temperance" and others all stood up and saluted together, repeating excitedly and sincerely:

"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool~

"Welcome back!

"Kleon, happy birthday to you!"

Seeing this scene, Klein's eyes suddenly became moist. He raised the corners of his mouth, looked at Abner, and said movedly:

"We also welcome your return... Mr. Tower..."

However, before he finished speaking, he suddenly realized that everyone called him the name "Klain".

Immediately afterwards, he saw the auditorium on the side of the long bronze table...

And the scenes that just happened in "Origin Castle" also appeared in his mind.
