Arcanum: Chaos Path

Chapter 17 Do You Know the Fool?

As for whether this would reveal too much information to the real creator, Rowling didn't care - some information was difficult to hide, and it was even exposed as early as when Rowling summoned the ancient sun god, so Rowling didn't mind using certain information to exchange for something that was beneficial to him.

Anyway, no matter what, it is true that he can die together with this world. As long as this is true, the other side will not be able to ignore it.

After all, even the crazy real creator still wants to protect this world in essence.

It’s a pity for Grisha, oh, maybe there is also a Sasriel... When Rowling thought of Yazoo, who was born from the fusion of Adam and the real creator, he couldn't help but feel a little more emotional in his heart.

Xio and Fors naturally didn't know that Rowling had reached an unspoken deal with the True Creator in just a short time. They were also deeply troubled by poverty, so when they heard Rowling's words, they immediately nodded in understanding.

If they were to purchase spiritual materials in large quantities, they would definitely bargain carefully.

The party, which was already coming to an end, naturally ended quickly after Luo Lin came back.

Luo Lin followed Xio and Fors out of the cabin. After getting on the carriage, the three of them discussed their next participation in the Extraordinary Gathering.

"I can't confirm the exact time yet, but I should receive specific news within a week at most. I will notify you then." Xio said this, and then looked at Luo Lin curiously and asked, "Speaking of which, since you can tell fortunes, can you predict this matter?"

"The approximate time may be possible, but without exact information on more specific matters, it's difficult to predict the outcome." Luo Lin shrugged and said, "After all, divination isn't omnipotent."

"Oh right..." Luo Lin seemed to have remembered something. He looked at Xio and Fors and said, "You should be considered relatively senior Beyonders in Backlund. If possible, I would like to ask you to help me find out something."

"What's the matter?" Xio sat up straight, his bounty hunter's radar activated.

"I want to inquire about the existence of a person called The Fool. He may be related to the Antigonus family and is a secretive existence." Luo Lin paused here, looking at the slightly changed expressions of the two people in front of him, and added:
"Of course, I don't need you to risk your lives. All I need is for you to ask around in your respective circles to see if anyone knows about the Fool."

Luo Lin did this naturally in preparation for obtaining the title of Fool in the future and joining the Tarot Club.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be very strange for him, a time traveler, to suddenly and inexplicably know the Fool's name?

Well, Mr. Fool wouldn't refuse to bring me to the Tarot Club just because I'm a time traveler, worried about my social ruin, right? If that's the case, don't blame me for blowing his cover... Luo Lin pondered slowly, not sure which scenario he was more excited about, but no matter which one, it seemed like a lot of fun.

Of course, Luo Lin did not deny that he already had a complete plan on how to join the Tarot Club.

Xio and Fors naturally didn't know that Rowling had already begun to think of various ways to persecute Mr. Fool. Upon hearing this, the two looked at each other and thought about the danger of this mission at the same time.

This world is full of secrets and is always very dangerous, but if you just want to get some information, the danger is normally not too great.

Just like the True Creator and the Primordial Witch, they were all renowned evil gods. Many Beyonders and even ordinary people knew of their existence, but as long as one didn't resort to reciting their true names or actively provoking anyone or anything associated with them, there wouldn't be much danger. "Then what kind of reward can you offer?" Xio asked after pondering for a few seconds.

"A deposit of 10 pounds. If you can find out relevant information, I will give you relevant rewards depending on the importance of the information." Rowling said straightforwardly. The reason why he did not offer a high price was mainly because he was afraid of scaring the two girls in front of him.

"Okay, I'll help you find out information in the circle." Xio nodded very straightforwardly. It was just to find out some information, and the deposit of 10 pounds was already a very good reward.

"Why do you want to know about this Fool?" Fors asked curiously. As a writer, her mind was always very active, and she had subconsciously imagined various small dramas in her mind.

"Originally, a friend of mine was very concerned about this matter. Later, after I looked up the ancient family books, I found that this fool might have some relationship with my family's ancestors." Luo Lin shrugged his shoulders and said:

"As you all know, it's not a good thing to be associated with a secret existence. Although my ancestor lived a long, long time ago, if there is any curse passed down... I have to find out clearly before I can feel at ease." At the end, Luo Lin sighed, his expression a little worried.

Hearing what Rowling said, Xio and Fors instinctively shrank back. It was not their fault. Being associated with a secret existence was extremely dangerous in this world's worldview.

However, the two of them quickly calmed down. After all, according to Luo Lin, it was only his ancestors who were related to the secret existence, and there was most likely nothing wrong with Luo Lin himself.

Forth, already troubled by the full moon's whispers, recalled his own situation and said with empathy, "Curses are indeed troublesome."

"What's the matter, Doctor? Are you having trouble with this?" Luo Lin looked at Fors with curiosity.

"I..." Fors hesitated, then thought of the magic potion formula she had purchased from the other party, and the fact that Luo Lin was suspected to come from an ancient and extraordinary family. She finally made up her mind and said, "Due to some accidents, I hear some mumblings during the full moon. This has troubled me for a long time."

Although she briefly introduced her situation, Fors was obviously cautious and did not give any more specific details.

Luo Lin wasn't surprised by this. He just showed a look of nostalgia. After hesitating for a few seconds, he said, "The mumbling of the full moon... I seem to have seen this in the ancient family books. It is said that a member of the ancient family named Abraham was troubled by this curse."

He looked at Fors with a look of surprise and inquiry, "Doctor, are you from the Abraham family?" He acted as if it were real.

Fors was shocked. At this stage, she naturally didn't know anything about the Abraham family, but she had heard Mrs. Anlisa mention her husband. It was said that her husband's family was an ancient family that was deeply troubled by the full moon mumbling.

Could it be that Mrs. Anlisa’s husband is from the Abraham family?

Fors had some guesses in her mind. Facing Luo Lin's curious gaze, she shook her head and said, "I'm not from the Abraham family. I just happen to be troubled by this curse."
