Mystery: Lucky One
Chapter 688 Cahpter80 Audrey's Struggle
There were too many pieces of information that Audrey didn’t dare to think deeply about, such as Mr. Fool being a resurrected ancient god, and Mr. World once personally admitting that he came from the distant past and had experienced a long sleep, such as the close relationship between Mr. World and Miss Fate, and Mr. World clearly being on the same path as Mr. Fool, but not knowing the formula of the potion...
When there are only one or two pieces of information, they are of no practical use, but whenever there is an opportunity to integrate these pieces of information, they will have unexpected effects. The surname Moretti is a similar opportunity.
——Audrey suspected that the last name came from the Fool.
After all, children should indeed take their parents' last names.
But, the Moretti family has an ancient god ancestor? Or...
The previous psychological suggestion came in handy again. All the overlapping thoughts caused a fear in Audrey's heart, cutting off her train of thought in time.
Opposite her, Dwayne Dantès looked calm, smiled and nodded.
"of course I remember."
There was nothing unusual about his expression, but he didn't seem to intend to continue the topic.
Audrey regained her composure, gave a formal smile, and tried to probe inconspicuously:
"When I heard this last name, I thought of this lady... And, Mr. World, I remember that you are very concerned about Melissa and her brother. You have inquired about their news many times..."
"Yes," Klein said frankly, "By the way, how are they doing recently?"
He showed no sign of guilt and seemed indifferent to Audrey's suspicion. The carriage was still moving. After two seconds of silence, Audrey smiled and talked about the recent situation of Melissa and Benson, and also talked about her relationship with Melissa - there was no mention of Benson, because she had only heard of Benson but had never seen him.
Klein listened quietly. As Audrey spoke, the carriage arrived at the destination. They got off the carriage. Audrey asked the maid to prepare refreshments and invited Dwayne Dantes to have afternoon tea.
Klein picked up a spoon and scooped a spoonful of cake, then put it into his mouth to savor it carefully. Audrey observed Dwayne Dantes, temporarily put aside her doubts, and began to act like a qualified psychologist.
They discussed some issues regarding the pollution of divinity, during which Audrey not only comforted Klein, but in fact, Audrey also expressed her own confusion.
As a pampered noble lady, Audrey had no idea for a long time what the process of acquiring wealth was like.
She had never seen all of this with her own eyes until the Backlund smog began. Tragedy after tragedy occurred before her, and the true face of the superiors was revealed. Only then did Audrey gradually come to know this world.
But her education had shaped her kind character. As her order improved and her horizons broadened, she became increasingly confused in the process of getting along with her parents, relatives, and other nobles. She found herself gradually unable to cope with the demands and could no longer be a good daughter or sister.
Klein listened to her statement quietly, sighed softly, and replied softly:
"At this point, I think that Miss Destiny and I have faced the same dilemma as you."
Audrey was obviously stunned for a moment. Her eyes seemed to be confused, so Klein turned his gaze away and only gave a name:
"Melissa Moretti."
Audrey's heart skipped a beat. She asked in shock, "Mr. World, are they your relatives? But, but, I remember you said before..."
She did not conceal the confusion in her eyes at all. After all, all signs indicated that Mr. "World" came from an unknown era, from a very ancient era.
Klein nodded slightly, then said calmly: "When she first appeared, Miss Fate was also an ordinary person - she even reasonably swallowed a portion of the extraordinary characteristics of the 'Lucky One'."
This story was no secret. As an early member of the Tarot Club, Audrey knew about it. A flash of realization flashed across her face, but then the thought that had just been put to rest came up again.
——This analogy... Could it be that Mr. "World" also had certain strengths in the past, but just started from scratch?
Mr. World is already an angel. The Utopia incident before that seemed to be some kind of ritual for him... Could it be a ritual to advance to Sequence 1? No, no, no, how could it be possible? If that's the case, then Mr. Fool would be... No, wait... Hiss.
That psychological suggestion once again suppressed her previous speculation. Audrey had the idea of removing the psychological suggestion for a moment, but unfortunately, this idea was also suppressed - she was already experienced in psychology and had certainly anticipated similar situations.
The fear interrupted Audrey's ability to think. The answer was obvious, but fear made her unable to think. She froze in place, trembling all over. Klein sighed and changed the subject:
"... The way we ended that relationship was through death, which was forced, of course, and I don't think it suited you, and you wouldn't have liked it - it would have saddened your parents and your brother.
"Perhaps you should adopt a gentler approach. I don't know much about the 'audience' approach. However, I remember your 'virtual personalities'... Is it possible for them to become independent and become real people?"
Audrey's mind moved, but she didn't answer immediately.
After Hvin Rambis' death, she became the "Arrogant" among the seven members of the "Psychological Alchemist Society". It was also at the meeting of the "Psychological Alchemist Society" that she learned that the "audience" of a high level could separate an experience from their own and form an "identity".
Maybe I can ask for help from the Psychological Alchemy Society... But the Psychological Alchemy Society doesn't trust me, and it's hard for me to trust them...
Audrey frowned slightly and described her thoughts to Dwayne Dantès truthfully. Upon hearing her words, Klein also fell into deep thought.
"This is indeed a problem," he told Audrey. "Maybe you can wait a little longer until certain things are resolved, and then ask... ask Miss Destiny for help."
When the matter of "God's Forsaken Land" has a conclusion, maybe... let Alice go, let Alice talk to Adam... She is quite shameless.
Audrey was slightly startled. She opened her mouth to say something, but Klein shook his head, causing Audrey's words to get stuck in her throat.
The treatment finally ended with Audrey full of questions. Klein stood up and said goodbye, preparing to go to the "River of Everlasting Darkness".
……
Dwayne Dantès disappeared in Backlund one night. Although the servants were panicked, they did not lose their composure because the housekeeper Tanya stated that their employer had prepaid a year's expenses and wages.
Anyway, they had a salary and no employer, so they were at ease. Apart from starting to look for other jobs, they didn't change much. However, as time went by, the number of servants inside and outside the manor decreased a lot. Most of them had new jobs. When Klein returned from the "Forsaken Land of the Gods", he came back to see the situation here.
Since there was no need to settle down afterwards, Klein eventually handed over the agency rights to Audrey, along with most of his own assets, and told Audrey to use them for charity.
Audrey refunded the rent of Backlund's house and only kept the Meige Manor and the servants who maintained its daily management. As for those properties, except for the part that maintained daily expenses, Audrey invested all of them in charity.
Meige Manor was the place Audrey left for Mr. "World" after careful consideration.
Klein originally thought it was unnecessary, but it unexpectedly came in handy at this moment. His former employer, who had disappeared for a long time, suddenly appeared and left his child at the Meige Manor. A demigod from the spiritual realm was involved, and there were no abnormalities throughout the process. The housekeeper Tanya took over the child and immediately began to make arrangements.
The maids in the manor may not have children of their own, but some of them have taken care of their employers' children. Tanya temporarily arranged two people to take care of them, and then began to recruit new maids who are professional in taking care of children.
Alice finally didn't have to feed herself with a bottle. Klein told Tanya that she was only two or three days old.
No one knew how this baby, who was only two or three days old, had experienced such a long journey. Everyone ignored the matter and focused on taking care of the child.
Alice lived a life of ease in Meige Manor, where everything was provided for her. If she had any problem, she just had to cry out loud.
She carefully observed babies all over the world and found that she could not crawl, run, jump, or talk. Instead, she was like every newborn baby, eating and sleeping.
Normally, angels don't need to excrete, and it took Alice a lot of effort to preserve the food residue. She couldn't help but admire her colleague Will Auceptin, who had played the role of a baby for many years. But when she thought of him, she would think of his current parents, and a shadow was cast in her heart.
But at this time, neither Klein nor she was suitable to handle this matter. The Goddess of Night could intervene. According to the latest news brought by Leonard, the child was sent to a church school and was temporarily separated from the captain and Ms. Daly.
——Don’t ask, if you ask, it’s an oracle.
Alice was relieved about this, but she also knew that the Goddess of Night probably wouldn't take the next step until she took the initiative to contact her, so things would leave it at that for the time being.
Since there would be no threat to the captain for the time being, Alice was willing to plan for the long term. Will Auceptin was obviously not destined to die, and if possible, she was not so keen on challenging the authority of fate - she could just wait until fate felt that he should die.
Moreover, without the ability to "restart" and repeatedly refresh the state, even Will Auceptin would have to face the problem of life span. Although the life span of angels is long, it is only a few thousand years at most - although Will Auceptin may die in the apocalypse in the near future. Note ①
No, maybe it should be called...
Will Smith?
A hint of dark coldness flashed across Alice's silver eyes, then she raised her head and gave a sweet smile to the maid who came to hold her.
……
After seeing Dwayne Dantes off, Audrey returned to her seat alone, rang the bell, and did nothing except asking the maid to come in and pack up.
Psychological suggestion would interrupt her train of thought at the critical moment, telling her that there was a terrifying secret hidden behind it, but repeated attempts would eventually make the psychological suggestion weaker. Audrey gradually realized that she might have made a wrong choice at the beginning.
She blocked the gate of her desire to explore, but the desire did not disappear. Instead, the gate was worn down day by day. If one day a weak point of the gate was broken, the consequences would be out of control.
Maybe, she really should remove the psychological suggestion... No, no.
Audrey took a deep breath. After calming down for a few seconds, she suddenly asked the personal maid who was standing behind her:
"How's Melissa Moretti doing?"
"She is in school and comes to the charity foundation in her spare time," the maid answered truthfully, "At this time, she should be at the charity foundation."
Audrey said without hesitation: "I want to go over and take a look."
The personal maid went out in response, and the servants who were packing up also gradually left. Only Susie was left in the room. Susie, who witnessed the whole process, spoke after everyone left:
"Audrey, you seem to be worried."
She used a declarative sentence, and Audrey did not hide it. She nodded and said with a slightly confused look:
"There is one thing. I know it involves a lot of things and I shouldn't explore it. But every time a related clue appears, I can't help but think about it a little more...
"Once or twice is fine, but many times, these thoughts are constantly suppressed and piled up in my heart. I am worried that I will lose control..."
Susie nodded, and a human understanding appeared on her dog face:
“You worry that you won’t be able to suppress your desire to explore and eventually seek the answer, but you’re also worried that the answer isn’t what you should know, or that knowing it might bring unforeseen consequences.”
"Yes," Audrey sighed, "You know what I should do, Susie?"
"I don't know," Susie shook her head calmly, "After all, I'm just a dog."
Audrey was slightly startled. This sentence, which usually made her speechless, gave her some inspiration at this moment. She said thoughtfully:
“In fact, even if I did find something, maybe it wouldn’t matter?
"After all, I am only a demigod..."
Regardless of whether it is Mr. Fool, Miss Fate, or even Mr. World, their levels are higher than mine... Even if I go to explore and discover something, the consequence will be nothing more than forgetting.
Moreover, this is not the poisonous knowledge, otherwise Mr. World would not only smile but also severely stop me from continuing to look for the answer...
Silently, something in Audrey's heart seemed to have completely dissolved. (End of this chapter)
