Mystery: Lucky One

“It doesn’t eat.” Klein replied.

"Why is it so picky about food..." Alice muttered.

Their conversation, which seemed quite inexplicable to outsiders, attracted Cattleya's attention. After looking at Alice, Cattleya thought for a moment and explained to her:
“Every Rose Bishop needs to replenish enough blood and flesh so that they can fully exert their extraordinary abilities and not easily lose control after being injured in a fierce battle.

"It's just that the lunatics of the Aurora Society prefer human flesh and blood. In fact, they can use something else as a substitute."

Alice nodded thoughtfully, then asked a philosophical question out of curiosity:
"If there is a fish that tastes and feels like a human, is the Rose Bishop eating a human or a fish?"

Yeah, so what exactly are you eating...

This was obviously the inspiration Frank Lee gave Alice. After scolding Frank Lee countless times in her heart, Cattleya said to Alice:

"I think Frank Lee and Heath Doyle are more professional than me on similar issues. You can ask them both."

Alice lowered her head thoughtfully, and Cattleya took the opportunity to move away from Alice.

This "Bloodless One" worth 7600 pounds was indeed lucky enough. Not only did he directly become a "Rose Bishop" of Sequence 6, skipping the "Listener" stage which was most likely to get out of control, he also joined the pirate group of "Admiral of the Stars".

If it weren't for this lady who possessed a lot of secret knowledge, even if he didn't actively listen to the voice of the true Creator, he would probably lose control because of his thirst for flesh and blood, right?

From this point of view, he really is like a "protagonist"... encountering various events, and then turning danger into safety, and gaining certain rewards...

Klein couldn't help but glance at Alice.

Cattleya's suggestion was indeed what Alice wanted, and she began to seriously consider whether to ask Heath Doyle or Frank Lee.

As she lowered her head in thought, a scene appeared before her.

The azure blue sea was cut off by a crack, and the sea water fell into the bottomless darkness like a waterfall. The "Future" rushed out of the edge of the waterfall and fell rapidly.

...?
Alice blinked blankly and looked around.

She took the initiative to move away from the chandelier, the food counter, etc. and moved closer to the corner of the restaurant.

Klein looked at Alice in confusion. Just as he was about to ask her what she was doing, the entire ship suddenly heaved violently.

The plate on the table, along with the food on it, was spilling all over him who was unprepared.

This was just a prelude. Next, amid a chaotic noise, all the plates and pirates flew out and hit the ceiling.

Toast, white bread, butter, cream, beer, fried fish... In the chaos, Alice quietly spread a pair of white wings, licked her lips, looked at the food flying in the air, and flew out to play the game of catching food.

Klein fell uncontrollably into the air. Without panic, he reached out his hand to press the ceiling, and somersaulted in an acrobatic manner to stabilize his body.

The one with the best special effects is undoubtedly the "Admiral of the Stars" Cattleya. She is surrounded by starlight and steps on a bright starry sky, but she seems to be unaffected at all.

In contrast, Heath Doyle was relegated to the shadows from the beginning - no one knows how he is doing now.

As a Beyonder of the "Sailor" Path, Nina also demonstrated amazing balance. She used the ceiling to stabilize her body and "accidentally" kicked Frank Lee.

The "toxin expert" flew out at an angle, crashed into a wine barrel, and was splashed all over by the light yellow wine.

Alice thought for a moment, then went forward to pick up the barrel, took out Frank Lee from it, and put it in the right place, then sighed:
"It looks like a flower pot..." Nina staggered.

Amidst the chaos, sea water surged up from the bottom of the sea like a fountain, dragging up the "Future" and throwing it to the other side of the gap.

After a feeling of lightness, Alice was sure that the "Future" had landed on the sea. She fell back to the ground and the wings dissipated from behind her.

Klein put away the Seagod Domain Talisman in his hand, walked over to Alice and asked curiously:
"Do angels really have wings?"

Alice turned her head to look at him and blinked twice. The silver wings wrapped around him from behind, then passed through him and retracted.

"It's actually imaginary," she explained. "You can't really touch it... but it can fly, a bit like a special effect or something."

After a pause, she added:
“In fact, theoretically, I can fly even without spreading my wings, or in other words, I can walk in the air.

"But I always feel like it makes more sense this way... You know?"

I see. It's like you think a crystal ball should go with a wizard robe... Klein completely understood Alice's thoughts. He ignored the expressions of others and looked towards the window of the restaurant.

The bright sunlight shone through the windows, revealing the mess in the restaurant. It was the scorching sun at noon, but they all remembered that it was still early morning.

Alice followed his gaze, thought for a moment, then quickly walked to the window and looked up at the sky.

"The sky... is like a huge sun." She turned around and described her feelings.

Klein couldn't understand Alice's abstract description, so he chose to walk over and see for himself.

There was no sun or clouds in the sky, only direct sunlight, making the entire sky appear golden.

As he glanced around, he found a ruin not far ahead.

Most of the ruins were submerged by sea water. What protruded from the plane were gray stones and stone pillars stacked into peaks. On top was a dome-like object, which, relying on its own curvature, supported a considerable space.

This ruin must have been extremely huge. Klein saw through the transparent sea water that its bottom extended all the way to the bottom of the sea with no end.

"This is a very dangerous ocean." "Admiral of the Stars" Cattleya had come to the side at some point and said while looking out the window.

Alice turned her eyes away from the window and looked at Cattleya with a look of nostalgia and reminiscence.

"Have you been here before?" Alice asked politely to support Cattleya.

Cattleya looked ahead and said with some sigh:

"I haven't been here many times, and they were all a long time ago."

"Me?" Alice blinked twice with curiosity and asked what Klein was thinking, "Weren't you with the crew of the Future at that time? Did you come alone?"

After a pause, Alice suddenly realized what was going on without Cattleya having to speak:

"Oh, it's the 'Mysterious Queen'!" (End of this chapter)
