Chapter 179 I Played a Game with Amon
After Raphael devised his own plan, he began sending people to investigate the cemetery run by the Church of the Goddess of Night, ostensibly to attend a funeral.
Because after the priest's requiem, no living corpses or evil spirits will appear in the natural environment.
Therefore, the only extraordinary power here is the "corpse collector," a member of the "Night Watch" team. He will take turns working here for a few weeks, and then other team members will take over.
There is also a bishop and several priests here, all of whom are very skilled in requiem rituals.
This ritual is a "formulaic" ritual with detailed steps, which can be completed even by ordinary people using the correct spiritual materials and sincerely praying to the gods.
Therefore, in various churches, those who hold requiem ceremonies are basically ordinary bishops and pastors.
Raphael chose this location for his role, firstly because there were corpses there, and secondly because the extraordinary powers here were weak.
After selecting the location for the performance and doing some research, Raphael did not immediately begin the performance. Instead, he instructed his subordinates to inquire further and choose a suitable funeral.
Three days passed quickly, and just as Raphael was waiting for his chance to play the role, the high-level extraordinary gathering hosted by the "Mysterious Saint" was about to take place. That evening, Raphael was to take Audrey and two others to the gathering.
2:50 p.m.
Backlund, the mansion of Earl Hall.
Today is Monday, and Audrey is ready to attend the Tarot session.
A few days ago, when I prayed to "The Fool," Mr. Fool did not respond immediately.
Audrey was quite worried about this, but fortunately Mr. Fool responded normally later. However, she thought of the King's tragic death and guessed that many big things must have happened in the past week.
At exactly three o'clock, Audrey's vision was shrouded in gray mist. As usual, she arrived at one side of the magnificent hall, by the long bronze table.
Audrey first glanced at the head of the table, "The Fool," then at the foot of the table, "The World."
Then he looked around at the other members.
It was as if nothing had happened.
So she rose cheerfully and addressed the head of the long bronze table, saying, "Good afternoon, Mr. Fool."
Among the attendees at this gathering, the most nervous was Leonard, nicknamed "Star".
The old man inside him sensed that on the day the king gave his speech, Amon's clones took action.
After that, Mr. Fool stopped responding to Leonard's prayers. The old man guessed that Mr. Fool was probably dealing with Amon's true form.
So when Leonard arrived at the venue, he first looked at Mr. Fool and saw that he was not wearing a monocle, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
After the Tarot Club members finished bowing to Miss Justice, Klein the Fool nodded slightly, gesturing for everyone to sit down.
Then he slowly looked around and chuckled, "You all seem quite concerned about whether this tarot gathering will proceed as scheduled."
They had all prayed to "The Fool" beforehand, asking if the tarot readings would proceed as scheduled.
Actually, some members learned about the King's sudden death through their own channels, and recalling the reminders from "The World" and "The Fool" last week, the next Tarot meeting might have to be postponed.
Everyone guessed that the king's tragic death was definitely related to Mr. Fool and "The World". They wanted to know the inside story of this matter, so they pretended to ask whether the Tarot meeting would be held as scheduled, to see if Mr. Fool's answer would reveal some information.
Some learned through their own channels that "World" Gehrman Sparrow was in danger, so they prayed to "The Fool" and inquired about the specific situation.
When Alger, the "Hanged Man," heard Mr. Fool's words, he thought it was a warning from Mr. Fool testing him.
When he prayed to Mr. Fool, he did have a certain degree of apprehension and was uneasy about it for a long time.
Fortunately, Mr. Fool did not seem to be angry, which Alger saw as giving him a chance to repent.
Alger immediately lowered his head and said in a slightly trembling voice, "It was because I wasn't devout enough, and I was thinking too much."
Everyone was stunned for a moment, somewhat puzzled as to why Mr. "The Hanged Man" would admit his mistake.
But without giving it much thought, everyone echoed, "We weren't devout enough; we were overthinking things."
Alger the Hanged Man was taken aback: What? I'm not the only one who's been praying to Mr. Fool these past few days?
"The Fool" Klein nodded and said, "This kind of concern is quite normal."
Then he laughed and said, "During this time, I used the body of 'The World' to play a game with Amon in the 'Forsaken Land.' Fortunately, I didn't miss this Tarot gathering."
This is actually the message he wanted to convey; the previous words were merely a prelude to this.
This would both explain the current state of the "world" and prevent Amon from spreading the message that "The Fool" is Gehrman Sparrow. If members of the Tarot Club heard this, they would certainly think that Amon was deceiving them.
Klein's words once again sparked some speculation and conjecture among the members, but they generally felt that the "Fool's" power had been restored to the level of the "King of Angels," and were both happy and apprehensive about it.
Only "The Sun" Derrick is excited because there is currently another member of the Tarot Club in "The Forsaken Land"!
After Mr. Fool finished speaking, the Tarot session officially began.
"Star" Leonard first inquired about the current situation of "The World," and Klein took the opportunity to manipulate "The World" to briefly explain his predicament. He dared not revive at all, and Amon and the others were waiting beside his corpse.
Once resurrected, it would be like a lamb entering a tiger's den.
Therefore, at this tarot gathering, Klein also hopes to brainstorm and ask everyone to help think of any way to complete the resurrection in another place.
After discussing it for a while, they came up with a good idea: they could ask "Sun" to help change the respawn location. However, the specific steps still need to be carefully considered and verified.
Klein believed that Leonard's grandfather inside him would be very good at dealing with this kind of "loophole" problem, so he asked Leonard to ask him.
As soon as this topic ended, "Hermit" Cattleya asked "The World" what exactly happened to the king's death.
Klein then told everyone that the king wanted to become the "Black Emperor," but failed.
Cattleya then asked, "So, it was your sabotage that prevented George III from being promoted?"
"I truly did not want George III to ascend to godhood, and I made some efforts in this regard, in which the Mystic Queen was also involved," Klein said, manipulating "the World." "But in the end, it was not we who killed the king."
Cattleya was taken aback: "Who is that?"
Could there be some other extraordinary organization opposing George III's deification?
The World replied: "Raphael Collins."
