Mystery: Lucky One

Inside the palace, Klein retreated while resisting the urge to inhale cold air.

It is impossible to kill the "Dark Angel" Sasriel without getting hurt. For a demigod of the "Fortune Teller" path, the manifestation of injury is the loss of the spirit worm.

Even though he had reached Sequence 3 and had digested the potion, the pain of the Soul Worm's death was still real, and he needed some time to calm down.

He looked at Alice, wanting to say something, but his soul was suddenly filled with an extreme sense of crisis. Almost instinctively, he snapped his fingers to summon fire and jumped behind Colin Iliad.

And a figure wearing a monocle also successfully appeared near where he was just now.

The figure's target was not him. He raised his right hand, turned his monocle, and then looked at Alice with a smile.

Amon's smile paused briefly when he saw Alice's silver hair, and then turned into a more joyful smile. He seemed to have forgotten why he came and asked with concern:

"Hey, why is your hair gray?"

"Go away." Alice was too lazy to talk nonsense with Him.

——If she and Amon were not the only ones at the scene, she should have run away with the "blasphemous slate"!
Unfortunately, these people have been included in the protection circle, and they have no ability to fight back against Amon - it is the real body coming, Klein may be able to run away, but that's all he can do.

So Alice not only didn't run away, she even took a step forward and blocked Amon's sight.

Amon slightly bent his eyes, without commenting on her behavior, but only fixed his eyes on the "blasphemous slate" in her arms, then his smile suddenly disappeared, and he said unceremoniously:
"give it to me."

"Impossible." Ellie said without hesitation.

Amon said nothing, his eyes passed over Alice, his brows furrowed.

Alice's attitude was firm - it could be seen from how tightly she held the "blasphemous slate". Amon could guarantee that she would never voluntarily hand over the "blasphemous slate". Besides, everyone knew that the words of the incarnation of fraud could not be trusted.

There was no need to think about cheating for the time being. Amon had not intended to cheat like this. He did prepare a plan - a plan of open robbery.

He raised his hand and turned the monocle again. Alice's hair stood on end, but she did not stop him. An illusory deep ocean reappeared in Amon's action. The "blasphemous slate" seemed to come alive at this moment, vibrating and making a buzzing sound, like an insect struggling after being captured.

This is the aggregated power of the "Chaos Sea" that Amon stole!

Alice had an urge to laugh. When she anticipated that Amon was going to steal or rob, she thought about what Amon would do.

The answers are nothing more than those few, such as using authority to rob directly, or using the influence of aggregation to rob indirectly...

Apparently, Amon's decision was within Alice's expectations. Of course, Alice didn't have any better solution except for the power confrontation. And power confrontation...

In a tug-of-war game, whoever wins gets the prize—she feels that she can’t pull Amon any better.

Therefore, Alice chose to give up directly.

She followed the direction of attraction and rushed over with the "blasphemous slate"!
Amon suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, but between the suction and the push, he only had time to have a premonition but not to react.

By the time he realized he should move, Alice was already holding the "blasphemous slate" and smashing it towards him!

——Yes, Alice decided to use the "blasphemous slate" as a brick.

To higher-level beings, this was clearly an extremely threatening "brick", and even Amon was no exception. He did not have the courage to face it head-on. He dodged while trying to retract the stolen aggregation influence.

On the other hand, the experienced Klein already knew what he should do when he saw Amon.

When Amon's attention was completely diverted by Alice and the "Profane Slate", he grabbed Colin Iliad and others, and with the help of the "Star Staff", he disappeared without hesitation.

——After the evil spirit of the "Dark Angel" was purified and the "True Creator" took away the remaining power of the "Chaos Sea", the blockade of this space has been opened.

As for Alice and Amon? That was not a battlefield he could participate in.

This is indeed the case. Alice feels that she should not participate in such a high-level war.

Seeing Amon withdrawing the influence of the "Chaos Sea", Alice smiled at him, and then her figure flashed, and she jumped into the river of fate in an instant with the "blasphemous slate".

——She ran away.

Amon was left there, stunned for a moment, but his emotions were relatively stable. He just rubbed his eyebrows and said to himself:
"It seems like I have to follow the path of destiny... Tsk."

……

The spiritual world cannot stop Amon, but the long river of destiny can - now that he has not yet become a true god, Amon can use the long river of destiny to do some things, or have an impact on the long river of destiny, but he cannot use his own destiny as a springboard and jump in directly like Alice.

This is a safe house unique to the "Destiny" path. As long as you are not afraid of getting lost, you can use the river of destiny to avoid most tracking.

Alice held the Blasphemous Slate and emerged from Klein's fate once again, appearing beside him.

He was in Silver City at the moment, and the Chief and others were also brought back by him. When they saw Alice coming out holding the Blasphemous Slate, Colin Iliad spoke up before Klein could speak:

"Miss Destiny."

"Hmm?" Alice looked over at him.

Colin Iliad looked back at Lovia and Derrick, then drew out his two swords in their stunned eyes and stuck them into the ground in front of him. Then, he knelt on one knee, put one hand on his chest, and put the other hand on the ground with a fist, and said respectfully and devoutly:
"Thank you for bringing us back."

“…You’re welcome?” Alice’s tone was hesitant and her eyes were blank. She subconsciously looked at Klein, asking for help.

After Klein stared at her for two seconds, he knelt beside the Chief and said devoutly:

"Praise you, great lady of destiny!"

Alice showed a toothache expression. She bared her teeth and looked at Lovia and Derrick who were ready to take action, and said angrily:
"You are not allowed to kneel!!!"

Lovia paused, looking hesitant. Derrick reached out without hesitation to hold Lovia back, stopping her from kneeling down.

Alice finally breathed a sigh of relief and angrily said to Klein:

"Where's your 'virtual personality'? No, forget about him, but how could you make a bookmark like this???"

She pointed at the chief with one hand, her tone and eyes full of confusion. Klein stood up calmly and explained:

"I told you that after my spirit is restored to its fullness, I can suppress the 'virtual personality' to a certain extent."

Alice was speechless. She realized that Klein might have just been trying particularly hard to suppress his emotions.

"...You should remove the 'virtual personality' and get psychiatric treatment," she turned her head away, and when she turned around she saw Colin Iliad again.

This gave Alice a headache. She looked at Colin Iliad on the ground and felt a pain in her teeth. She took a deep breath and said as calmly as possible:
"Get up.

"You have already knelt, so you are not allowed to let others kneel, ok? I don't want to see all of you Silver City people kneeling in the square... That's a bit too scary."

Colin Iliad stood up. He glanced at Alice and said thoughtfully:

"You don't like this kind of etiquette?"

“No,” Alice shook her head. “If it’s a statue, holy emblem, or some other symbol, I don’t mind it. But if it’s face to face… it always feels weird.”

After a pause, she added:
"Actually, if I see you praying from a distance, it doesn't seem to matter, but face to face... I just don't like doing this in person, especially... er, okay, if it's just you, it's fine if it's just you, but..."

Alice glanced at Klein and said in a strange tone, "I saw him saluting me, just like I saw Mr. Fool saluting me."

Colin Iliad's heart skipped a beat, and he didn't dare to turn his head to look. Even Lovia and Derrick subconsciously turned their eyes away from Klein.

This time it was Klein's turn. He looked at Alice and wanted to say something, but Alice turned her head away and said:
“After all, in a sense, he is… uh, the tutor that Mr. Fool hired for me…”

"Tutor?" The chief didn't understand.

"You should have teachers here, right? I remember Derrick said there are?" Alice glanced at Derrick and got his nod in confirmation. "It's almost like a teacher, but he lives in your house. Not only does he teach you, he also regulates your words and deeds, your daily life, keeps a close eye on you, and reports to your parents if there is anything inappropriate. He also conveys your parents' requests to you from time to time..."

Alice glanced at Klein indifferently and said dejectedly, "So, when I see him, sometimes it's like..."

She shook her head and didn't repeat what she had just said, but everyone knew what she was referring to. They all breathed a sigh of relief and dared to look up at Klein again.

I'm not that exaggerated... Klein complained in his heart, but he didn't say anything. He just shook his head and said:

"I'm going to solve the problem of 'virtual personality'."

He said goodbye, and of course no one stopped him. Alice subconsciously wanted to go with him, but Chief Colin Iliad asked:

"Miss Fate, when can we return to the Giant King's Court again?"

——When can I return to the "Giant King's Court" again, open that door, and leave this cursed land?

The Chief looked at her. Alice smiled and shook her head.
“You guys take a break, get well, and let everyone pack up, and then we can leave.

“Amon will not stay there for too long, there are too many people watching… Oh, by the way, you should be on the sea when you go out, I have to find Mr. Fool and ask him to contact the believers in the outside world and bring a boat to pick you up!
"Speaking of which, this time is a good thing, because outside... heh, there's a war of gods going on outside, and no one can take care of you."

"War of Gods?" The chief was stunned for a moment.

"For now, we are still in the War of Faith, and the gods have not yet personally intervened..." Alice slowly turned her eyes away, her tone ambiguous, "Seven Gods... By the way, Chief, can I ask you a question?"

She turned to look at the chief and asked curiously:
"I've heard Derrick talk about many things in the City of Silver, including that they must be killed by direct relatives, otherwise they will turn into monsters, and your black-faced grass...

"But as far as I know, there seems to be no similar phenomenon in other places on this land? It seems that this is only special here..."

She looked at the chief curiously. After two seconds of silence, the chief turned back to look at Lovia and Derrick. Lovia immediately took Derrick out. The chief then turned to Alice and sighed:
“In Silver City, this is a secret known only to the chiefs of all generations.

"There is a god-level sealed object in Silver City..."

"God level?" Alice asked in confusion.

"The true gods or what's left after the fall of the gods." The chief explained.

Alice suddenly realized, nodded, and modified it into a "0" level seal.

The Chief then narrated:
"This sealed object is called 'Gift of the Earth'.

“It brings prosperity to Silver City, allowing black grass to grow around Silver City, allowing us to survive in the darkness, but it also has a price.

“It is the curse that requires one to be killed by an immediate family member, and it is the price of abundance.

"It, it is the corpse of the giant queen Omybella..."

"Ah???" Alice opened her eyes wide, "No, wait, whose body is it?"

"Giant Queen Omybella." The chief repeated again.

Alice swallowed in fear and confirmed with the Chief:

"Are you sure your information is correct? Is there any misunderstanding? Could it be the remains of some other god?"

The chief didn't say anything, but his eyes gave the answer. Alice's smile disappeared. She thought of the unknown gods who were about to fall in the war of gods. She closed her eyes, raised her hand and drew a crimson moon symbol on her chest.

——In the outside world, everyone knows that the "Mother Goddess of the Earth" is the former Giant Queen Omybella, the mother of the "God of War"!

If the real Omibella is dead, who is taking on Omibella's identity now? Alice doesn't know. She only knows that the "God of War" must have been deceived by Adam and the Goddess - that is to say, the currently unknown "Mother Goddess of the Earth" is on the side of the Goddess!

Alice clearly remembered that Feysac's faith belonged to the God of War, and at this moment, Feysac was fighting with Loen!
"Darkness..." she whispered, "The Eternal Sleeper, and..."

She paused, without reciting the last sequence 0. She took a breath and said in a pious tone she had never heard before:
"Praise the goddess."

——She still does not believe in the Goddess of Night, and still disagrees with some of her choices, but she will be her staunch ally.

It has nothing to do with friendship or identity, she is just afraid. (End of this chapter)
