Mystery: Lucky One

Alice looked at Emlyn the Moon hesitantly and asked with a strange expression:

"Do all the rich people in your blood clan accumulate wealth by living long enough?"

"Of course not!" Emlyn retorted loudly.

This rebuttal was not very convincing. No one believed Emlyn's words. Fortunately, this was not the focus of the conversation. Magician Fors spoke in disbelief:
"It's that simple?
"That's a vampire who is equivalent to Sequence 5. It seems that your plan will be successful very easily..."

Although she had participated in divine meetings such as the Tarot Club, met an angel at the Tarot Club, and was entangled with an ancient family that once had an angel king, Fors still had some understanding of wild extraordinary people, and she knew clearly the level of normal wild extraordinary people.

In the circle of wild Beyonders, Sequence 5 is definitely considered powerful, and some are even the leaders of gatherings. Those powerful pirate generals are only at this sequence. However, in the discussion just now by "Xingxing" and the others, such a "Sequence 5" can be easily solved, and it seems that there is no difficulty at all!
Hearing her question, "Star" Leonard thought for a moment and said:

"As long as that vampire doesn't have an item that can restrain my abilities, even if he's at Sequence 5, I can definitely make him 'unconscious' for a while. It all depends on whether Miss Justice can seize this opportunity."

"If the location is arranged and preparations are made in advance, I have no problem with it." Audrey "Justice" gave a firm answer.

She was actually a little nervous, after all, she had never participated in a real battle, but her confidence in her extraordinary abilities and knowledge in the field of mystical psychology gave her the confidence to say such words.

After hearing the two people's responses, Magician Fors suddenly became dazed:
Before they knew it, apart from Mr. World, the rest of the Tarot Club members also had the ability to deal with Sequence 5s... And yes, Miss Justice was already a Sequence 6 Hypnotist. With the cooperation of Beyonders of the same level, she would have a good chance of hypnotizing a Sequence 5...

Just when Emlyn the Moon felt that the matter had been settled and there was no need to ask any more questions, Alger the Hanged Man, who had been watching from the sidelines, spoke up:

"As a member of a secret organization, I think everything should be considered in depth."

"Ah?" Emlyn the Moon and Leonard the Star looked at Mr. The Hanged Man in confusion.

"Justice" Audrey and "Judgement" Xio were stunned at first, then they vaguely grasped something.

As the future evil god, Alice hadn't thought of anything, so she decided to learn with an open mind, and if necessary, bring Mr. "The Hanged Man" to train possible future members of her secret organization.

The Hanged Man Alger cleared his throat, glanced at the Sun Derrick beside him and said:

"Since the abandoned castle in the Delaire Forest was a test, why couldn't the vampires in plain sight also be a test?"

Alice's eyes widened. She asked humbly, "Then how can we confirm whether he is testing us? If so, what should we do?"

Emlyn the Moon and Leonard the Star also looked like they had learned something new. Audrey the Justice first sighed in her heart at the thoughtfulness of Alger the Hanged Man, and then she said:

"Perhaps we should give up the punishment temporarily and punish again when the vampires can no longer observe in secret?"

Alger, the Hanged Man, chuckled and said, "No need to give up. Just a few more misleading actions will do."

He then looked at Emlyn the Moon and said:
"First, you will assign the task of investigating that vampire directly to the bounty hunters in Backlund, and use their presence to cover up Miss Judgment's actions.

"Second, before Miss Justice and the others deal with the vampire, you need to behave in a way that is suspicious enough but not too conspicuous, as if you are going to take revenge in another place, so as to attract the surveillance's 'eyes' and create the necessary opportunity. This is combined with the first point.

"Third, wait until the vampire is successfully hypnotized, then you can go over and guide him."

Having said this, Alger stopped talking, turned to Alice and said:

“Fourth, Miss Fate, can you add anti-divination to this operation?”

"No problem!" Alice responded cheerfully, "But...can I take a share of the spoils, too?"

She looked at Emlyn the Moon hesitantly. Emlyn was stunned for a moment before saying:
"no problem."

Miss Destiny is really good at talking to her own people... Knowing that this "justice" could not be considered a reward at all, Audrey let out a sigh and expressed her silent emotion.

Alger, the Hanged Man, was not affected and continued:

"Also, Miss Justice and Mr. Star, you must be well disguised when you act, and don't leave any traces."

After listening to the whole process, Alice understood the thinking of "The Hanged Man" Alger. She lowered her head thoughtfully, realizing that she might not be able to learn this.

——If she knew in advance that this was a test, she would more likely do what she should do. If the other party didn't move, she would just let it go. But if the other party moved, she would overturn the table.

As for what to do if she can’t win…she can just pretend to be stupid.

The disciplinary action was finally finalized. Justice Audrey did not hesitate, looked around and said:

"I met with Hvin Rambis, a member of the Psychological Alchemy Council last week."

What? Hvin Rambis is a member of the Psychological Alchemist Council? "Star" Leonard sat up straight in surprise, and the night watchman's disease came on. He had the urge to report to the archbishop immediately and gather a team to arrest him.

……and many more.

Alice and Klein are both, in a sense, the goddess's followers. Alice is an angel, and Klein is a saint. Theoretically speaking, are we already a team... maybe I should be excluded?

After all, I really don’t dare to think about what role I can play in the battle between demigods. Ince Zangwill is just an accident after all...

Almost instinctively, Leonard looked around and found that none of the other members of the Tarot Club were surprised or stunned. They were all listening carefully.

They already knew about this? That's right, I've only attended a few gatherings, and I haven't touched on many things yet... There are so many secrets involved here... Leonard retracted his gaze and resumed his previous sitting position.

Alice finally couldn't bear it any longer, so she asked the World:
"You never told him about the party?
"Even if...even if there are some things that cannot be said, you should still tell him some basic things, right...?"

“Uh…” Klein manipulated the “world” to utter a syllable that everyone understood.

Alice pinched her brows, glanced at the “Judge” Xio, who was also a newcomer but didn’t seem shocked at all, then looked at the “Star” Leonard who was full of loopholes, and said sincerely:
"No wonder you two can become friends."

Klein felt that his fist was a little hard. In order to avoid being ridiculed by Alice with similar topics again, he controlled the "world" and said to Leonard:

"...I'll find a time later to tell you about the previous party."

Leonard the Star nodded slightly strangely, while others silently praised the relationship between Mr. Star and Alice. They seemed to be friends.

No one continued to speak, so Audrey the Justice continued:

"He tried to give me psychological hints, asking me to get in touch with different nobles more often, understand their true attitudes on different matters, and then convey them to him. Fortunately, Mr. Fool asked an angel to provide a blessing, and I was not actually affected. Hmm, what should I do next?"

Could there be an angel offering a "blessing"? Leonard looked around in amazement again, but still did not see any other party members showing any obvious emotional reactions.

Klein was shocked and began to think about how, as Mr. Fool's follower, he should fabricate the angels under the Fool's seat, the Fool's power, and the relationship between him and the righteous gods, evil gods, angel kings, and so on.

...Can I just answer him with "This is not something you should know"?

Alger, the Hanged Man, took the initiative to speak:

"You don't need to pay too much attention to this matter. The major orthodox churches have corresponding protection measures for their relatively important believers to prevent them from being assassinated or hypnotized. This is the experience accumulated over thousands of years of history and it will not be so easy to be destroyed. From another perspective, if the Psychological Alchemy Society can really manipulate the nobles and hypnotize them so easily, it would not be the royal family and the three major churches that rule this country. Obviously, the facts contradict this.

"Well, just as you said, Hvin Rambis only hinted that you should observe the true attitudes of different nobles on different events. This shows that he was very restrained and did not dare to do too much to avoid leaving unnecessary traces. In addition, your actual status in the noble circle should be only on the edge, and you cannot directly participate in various political events. Therefore, relatively speaking, your protection and scrutiny of your situation will not be so strict. This is also the reason why Hvin Rambis targeted you."

Alice listened to Alger's comments thoughtfully, and then asked curiously:

"But I remember that Miss Justice at least had a high position on the surface... This feeling of having a high position on the surface but not having the actual decision-making power is so familiar...

“Isn’t this me!”

Alger, the "Hanged Man," opened his mouth and then closed it, rationally deciding not to interrupt the next topic.

Audrey, who had just finished analyzing Alice's character, was a little bolder. She asked:

“I remember Mr. Fool was relatively confident in you…?”

“I’m not talking about Mr. Fool,” Alice shook her head. “I’m talking about the goddess… Your status in the aristocratic circle is exactly the same as my status in the Church of Evernight.”

After a moment of silence, Leonard asked with an attitude that everyone knew it anyway:
"In that case, Miss Destiny.

"Should I report your performance at the Tarot Club to the Archbishop...?"

"It's better not to," Klein interrupted while manipulating the World, "I don't think anyone in the Church of Evernight wants to know that she's spreading the word about Evernight's followers."

"...Ah?" Leonard's face showed a mixture of confusion and shock.

The other members of the Tarot Club remained silent, but Alice didn't think there was anything wrong and retorted:

"But this is the truth - according to our previous relationship, He is indeed my Favored One!"

"Then why did your follower become a god, but you haven't?" Klein asked back.

This was a topic that no one dared to interrupt. The members of the Tarot Club wished they could disappear from this place. Leonard was not much better. He took a breath and murmured in a daze:

"It turns out she's not an illegitimate daughter, it's my mother..."

Alice paused for a moment, looked at Leonard, and asked hesitantly:

"That one... He told you that I am the illegitimate daughter of the goddess... Kuroneji?"

After a moment's hesitation, Alice changed her words and raised herself to the same level as the Goddess of Night.

Leonard didn't care about the difference in details. He nodded stiffly, earning Alice a strange look.
"Did He say this in front of the Goddess?"

"No." Leonard answered without hesitation.

"Please be sure to tell Him," Alice said seriously, "I will definitely tell the Goddess about this and let Her be prepared."

Leonard swallowed hard, but Alice smiled at him sympathetically:
"Don't worry, we'll try not to implicate you."

Leonard was even more frightened.

Alice ignored him. She looked at the dummy "world" and answered Klein's question:
"Haven't you read novels? Novels always write like this.

"Every upgrade of the protagonist is a test of life and death, an opportunity for enlightenment, extremely difficult, requiring tenacious strength and strong will to pass the test and gain glory.

“That’s why I haven’t become a god yet.”

"Justice" Audrey looked at "Magician" Fors, the best-selling author in reality.

The expression on Magician Fors's face was both surprised and bewildered, with a hint of excitement and curiosity flashing across her face intermittently. While Audrey was thinking, she took the initiative to ask:
"Miss Fate, have you ever thought of writing a biography of yourself?"

"Yes," Alice nodded happily, "Would you like to write it for me?"

“Well, I…” Fors looked hesitant, “I write slowly…”

Ellie replied nonchalantly, "I asked your Mr. World to come up with a name for me a while ago. It's been several months, and he still hasn't come up with one."

Klein remained silent about this.

When Fors heard this, he immediately felt relieved and said confidently:

“You can tell me about your experience.”

Alice nodded happily and smiled:
"Well, I'll leave my holy book to you. When I get the doctrine compiled by the 'world', we'll talk about this!" (End of this chapter)
