Chapter 112 The Third Tarot Club
“Klein, these are the mysticism of rituals,” Melissa explained gently.

In front of her, Klein was like a serious student, absorbing the mystical knowledge of the extraordinary world that Melissa described.

With the help of Melissa, Klein is no longer a novice in mysticism. His level is a dimensionality reduction attack on low-sequence Beyonders.

“Melissa, I’m going back to my room to rest.” Noticing that the time for the Tarot Club was approaching, Klein ended the class with an excuse.

"Ah."

"By the way, Klein, Tingen City is very dangerous. It's best if you leave like Benson..."

“Melissa, I won’t abandon you.” Klein placed his hands on her shoulders, his eyes strong and firm.

Abandon Melissa and run away alone?

There is no such sentence in Klein's life dictionary.

“Okay, I’m going to the Tingen City Library.

I have placed spiritual warnings around the house, please pay attention to them."

"Well, leave early and come back early."

After a heartwarming conversation, Klein saw Melissa off.

Staring at Melissa's back, Klein could sense the gray fog space, or the protection that Sefirah Castle provided her.

Klein obtained information about the messenger that Medea explained to Miss Justice, the sacrifice that Mr. Sun described at the beginning... and the last piece of the puzzle, Melissa's mysticism class.

Today, he is able to leverage the power of the gray fog space and draw the protection of the personality.

After a few days of observation, Klein determined that as long as Melissa did not use the power of the stigmata, the Source Castle was enough to protect Melissa from being discovered by the Beyonder's spiritual vision.

That was why Klein dared to let Melissa go out.

After all, as described in the Vortex of Destruction, status determines everything. The gray fog that is enough to spy on the Knowledgeable Master, the Hidden Sage, is the most powerful trump card in Klein's hand.

"Talismans, ritual magic, drawn spells, and the substitute paper doll, the power of Boshizun, my plug-in... With so many insurances, Melissa, there shouldn't be any problems."

After thinking carefully to make sure there would be no accidents, Klein arranged the spiritual wall, walked four steps backwards, and climbed up to the Source Castle.

…………

"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool~Good afternoon, Mr. Hanged Man~Good afternoon, Mr. Sun~Good afternoon, Ms. Queen~Good afternoon, Mr. World~"

It is still the introduction of Miss Justice, the God of Wealth of the Tarot Club.

After the atmosphere calmed down, Miss Justice looked at the Fool and spoke.

"Mr. Fool, I have obtained a page of Roselle's diary."

"Very good." Klein nodded, then modified the numbers on Miss Justice's personal virtual screen.

+50
Medea said with a slightly apologetic tone: “I’m sorry, Mr. Fool, I was unable to spare the time, so I did not obtain Roselle’s diary.”

...Of course you can't spare the time. Tingen City is stirring up trouble and preparing for the senior's vortex of destruction. If you give me Roselle's diary, I will be surprised...

While thinking about the situation, Klein replied in a fool's tone, "No problem."

“Mr. Fool, there have been a lot of… troubles at sea recently.” When the word “trouble” was mentioned, the Hanged Man Ajel’s face twitched.

Above the sea, the Four Emperors and the Seven Warlords of the Sea...cross it out.

The four kings and seven generals were convening a pirate party, and many pirate groups were going to participate, so Ajel had to temporarily give up docking to collect Roselle's diary and headed at full speed towards the location of the pirate party.

"I'm sorry, I didn't collect Roselle's diary."

“Is there a problem at sea too?” The Fool thought thoughtfully.

That’s right. A situation as big as Backlund in the Loen Kingdom still belongs to the Extraordinary World. The Extraordinary people on the sea will naturally gather together to discuss whether they need to respond to the situation next.

“Mr. Fool, this is the Roselle diary that I collected.” The world still spoke in a childish tone, and then made a sacrifice.

This one was collected by Klein himself, from the inventory of the Church of Evernight.

"very good."

The Fool casually transferred a huge sum of +50 to the small account, and his mood immediately improved a little, because this was free money.

At this time, it was also the time for the Tarot Club's usual Fool reading. On the yellow-brown parchment, the Chinese characters were written in a slightly twisted and ferocious manner.

"On August 8, the water was deeper than I imagined. History is really a little girl who can be dressed up by anyone."

“Roselle’s diary, it’s not hers…” Klein felt a little disappointed when he saw the date.

But Klein still read on carefully.

"August 8th. Today I witnessed the strength of the High-Sequence Experts. It was simply terrifying. In some ways, they have undergone a qualitative change and become like gods. No wonder they have been described as 'demigods and half-humans'. Well, I think it might be more appropriate to call them 'mythical creatures'."

"August 8th, it's strange. Why do the seven major churches have such a weird attitude towards potions? In the middle and low sequence stages, they not only provide the main materials to those who are promoted, but also generously share the recipes and demonstrate the process of preparing potions. If there are corresponding rituals, they will definitely explain them in detail. In the high sequence stage, they only make finished potions."

"This is totally illogical. At the low- to mid-sequence stage, when the main materials are relatively easy to collect and the production process is relatively simple, shouldn't we keep the formula secret and directly prepare the potion for the target?

When you reach a high sequence, since the main materials are hard to obtain, shouldn’t you share the formula so that members who have the hope of promotion can take the initiative to find it?"

"There must be a secret hidden in here that I don't know yet."

"On August 8, what happened in the past two days makes me feel not very good. The industrial revolution that I started with my own hands, the age of steam and machinery that I created with my own hands, will become a hotbed for the birth of evil gods?"

The Fool has a thoughtful look on his face.

If it was Klein, a newbie in the original novel, then he naturally didn’t know what the breeding ground of the evil god was.

But Klein is different now. He understands what this means.

'Roselle created the Industrial Revolution, and the incomplete first steam revolution led to the kind of things that were recorded in history. The resentment, wailing, and negative emotions of these people became the breeding ground for the advent of the evil god.'

Tingen City... Could it be that this will also happen?
"No, it won't." Klein thought about the key factor.

"All the secret sage needs is knowledge, so as long as everything is under control... then the problem of the hotbed of evil can be solved."

The Fool raised the corner of his mouth, then put down the parchment in his hand and said gently: "You can communicate freely."

After saying that, Miss Justice instantly looked towards Medea.

She asked curiously, "Madam Queen, why...are the nobles unwilling to become Beyonders?"

It is obvious that Miss Justice learned some of the relevant information from her father and uncles through indirect inquiries.

"The question is simple. It's about the loss of control of extraordinary power." The Hanged Man answered based on his extraordinary knowledge.

"That's part of the reason, but it's more about more than just losing control."

Medea shook her head and looked at the little sun.

"The City of Silver announced its extraordinary power, right?"

“Yes, everyone will become an extraordinary person when they grow up, except for a very small number of... scholars.” Little Sun thought for a long time and decided to call them “scholars”.

"Extraordinary power is not just about potions and extraordinary characteristics." Medea tapped the long bronze table lightly with his fingers, his tone long and profound.

“Sometimes, a sentence, a legend, a story, or a name can also have extraordinary power.”

"For Extraordinary people, this kind of power can easily make them lose control, go crazy, and encounter contamination from unknown beings."

“In the mysticism of the extraordinary world, there is a common sense.

If you want to know more, the lower the sequence, the better, preferably an ordinary person."

Because you are an ordinary person, even if you hear the mumbling of evil gods such as the starry sky, the red moon, and the real creator, you cannot understand them at all. Your spirituality... you will not have any connection with mysticism at all.

Of course, you will not be polluted by what you do not know.

Just like the starry sky outside the sky, if you don’t know what is outside the starry sky, then you will not encounter the contamination of the Old Gods.

"But it's not absolute. Some pollution is not just conceptual things like language and words. They may have entities or some kind of power. In this case, Beyonders have a greater chance of surviving."

“Most of the nobles will deal with some messed up things. Their best option is not to become Beyonders and gain the protection of the church.”

"I understand. Thank you." Audrey's eyes were bright.

If this was the case, then she wouldn't have to wonder why her parents had always forbidden her from becoming a Beyonder but had not restricted her from searching for herself.
