Mystery: Lucky One

Alice's attitude of refusal was very firm, and Klein finally gave up on the difficult operation of controlling "The World" to make a threatening look, allowing "The World" to withdraw its gaze.

Cattleya watched the exchange between the two people and remembered the last time "The World" forced Alice to question, and she felt a strange feeling in her heart.

Why do you feel that these two people...let's call them two people? Why do you feel that they have a pretty good relationship?
Without preconceivedly defining "the world" as "nanny", Cattleya could better feel the familiarity and implicit understanding between them, as well as Alice's subtle fear.

Of course, this fear was obviously not directed at the "world" but at school. However, Cattleya was also confused as to why Alice had such a violent reaction to going to school.

It was as if she had experienced some kind of inhumane abuse at school...

Audrey was also aware of this problem. She was keenly aware that going to school was probably a psychological shadow of Miss Destiny...

Alice's description in a few words in her memory allowed Audrey to piece together a picture of a young Miss Destiny being escorted by Mr. Fool and having to sit and "study" for more than ten hours every day with a frown on her face.

It looks so pitiful... Audrey sighed a little in her heart, but her face showed nothing.

Alice didn't realize that someone was secretly laughing at her. After Klein's warning, she successfully calmed down and stopped talking. As a result, the members of the Tarot Club had more energy to think.

For example...who is Bernadette?
In comparison, Cattleya is more concerned about another thing: "Miss Destiny, what do you mean by the price you just mentioned?"

"You care about her?" Alice turned her head and stared at her curiously and asked.

Cattleya fell silent again, and just when she was struggling with how to speak, Alice answered her question mercifully: "Don't worry, even if I want to settle accounts, there will be someone ahead of her. "

Cattleya suddenly felt relieved. She felt that this sentence was much more reliable than Miss Destiny's promise that she would not do anything. Listening to it gave people a sincere sense of peace of mind.

Cattleya didn't say these words, but her relaxed state still revealed some information. Alice asked curiously: "So, what is your relationship?"

Cattleya opened her mouth, her expression complex and unreadable, as if she didn't know how to define the relationship between them.

Alice glanced at her thoughtfully, and suddenly whispered: "If you don't want to say it, forget it."

Cattleya was stunned for a moment.

"Although I don't quite understand it..." Alice held her chin and looked at her, "But human beings seem to be like this. Sometimes they are awkward. They clearly care to death but are unwilling to say anything..."

This is the first time Alice has taken the initiative to separate herself from human beings while awake.

No one thought there was anything wrong with this, not even Klein. He just marveled at Alice's rare understanding, and then felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart.

——It’s like the feeling of powerlessness that comes with trying so hard, but finally discovering that something that was destined to happen happened.

In fact, the person with the best attitude here is Alice.

Stressing over and over again and convincing herself that she was human was actually not a pleasant experience for her.

Although Alice only subconsciously adopted this title, after blurting it out, she realized the source of the awkward feeling she had always felt. In fact, she does not have to identify herself as a human being. Even if she is not a human being, she can live like a human being and love human beings... No, only if she is not a human being can she love human beings without any psychological burden - because she will not be Human emotional bondage.

A vague realization flashed through Alice's mind, but Alice always felt that the stinging stone in her heart had become smaller, but it had not disappeared - she seemed to have something missing.

... Try your best next time!
Alice gave up thinking with a clear conscience and changed the subject: "Are you all okay?"

After a few seconds of silence, Audrey, who had the most experience in this kind of scene, took the lead in raising her hand and said:
"Sorry, Mr. Fool, I haven't been able to contact the 'Psychological Alchemy Society' recently, so I haven't been able to get more diaries..."

Klein nodded lightly.

Alice stared at Audrey's hand and said quietly: "You know, Miss Justice, I always feel that after raising your hand like you do, you should stand up and speak..."

"Why?" Audrey asked subconsciously.

Alice shrugged and didn't answer.

"Magician" Forsi took the opportunity to apologize: "Recently, the teacher's replies have always been slow, and the cold weather has made me go out less frequently..."

Alice judged others by herself, thinking that Miss Magic was actually too lazy to get up.

The newly promoted Derrick "The Sun" also apologized: "Great Mr. Fool, because I have just been promoted, I have a lot of things to deal with, so..."

When Alice heard this, she remembered the question she had always wanted to know, and hurriedly raised her hand and said, "Mr. Sun, could you please help me collect information about the 'Wolf of Doom'?"

"Wolf of Doom"...? This was obviously an ancient god's name that made people think deeply, especially Alger, who almost subconsciously made a guess - is this an acquaintance of Miss Destiny?

Derrick nodded and said: "I, I will pay attention when copying the legends of the ancient gods..."

"No," Alice shook her head, "You misunderstood me, Mr. Sun. This is another commission, my personal commission. You can ask me for compensation."

Derrick was stunned for a moment, but for a moment he didn't know what kind of reward he should propose - he had just been promoted to Sequence 7, and was still far away from Sequence 6. There was nothing he urgently wanted to obtain.

Of course, it wasn't that he couldn't start collecting potion formulas in advance, but in his understanding, the knowledge that Miss Destiny gave him for free was more than the price of the legend of the ancient gods. He really couldn't think of what he could ask for in return. .

Poor Derrick completely ignored the huge risk he had taken.

"You can take your time and think about what you need." Alice knocked on the table and did not give Derrick the option to refuse.

Derrick nodded silently, and then said to "The World":
"Mr. World, I have the method you want to separate the mental pollution of those who have lost control of their extraordinary characteristics."

Finally, after "Moon" Emlyn sold "The Hanged Man" Alger, "Sun" Derrick sold "The World" again. (End of chapter)
