Arcanum: Chaos Path

Chapter 63 Time Travel Diary 2.0
Klein leisurely introduced the new members to the two elders of the Tarot Club, and then introduced the existence of the two elders to the new members.

New members, and two of them?
Justice Audrey's first reaction was surprise. As one of the founders of the Tarot Club, Justice Audrey could be said to be the person who felt the most sense of belonging to the Tarot Club. Even the Fool himself might not have the same sense of belonging as her, so naturally, she also hoped the Tarot Club would grow stronger the most.

Seeing new members joining the club, Justice Audrey first greeted them enthusiastically, and then subconsciously became an audience member and looked at the two of them.

Mr. Sun didn't look very old, and he seemed very nervous and a little embarrassed, giving people the impression of being a lone wolf... Justice Audrey first observed Sun Derrick, then her eyes fell on Mr. Emperor next to her, and she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

There was no way. The features of Mr. Emperor opposite looked a little familiar, which made Justice Audrey instantly think of Mr. Jack whom she had met not long ago.

So Mr. Jack was really dragged into the Tarot Club by Mr. Fool... Justice Audrey's first reaction was still joy. After all, she had personally completed this matter, which gave her a sense of accomplishment.

But then Justice Audrey realized something and thought to herself, "Oh no!"

Because not only are Jack's features obvious, her own features are equally obvious, and Jack has seen her in real life, and he seems to be equally good at observation.

Sure enough, the next second Justice Audrey saw the Emperor looking at her with a thoughtful and puzzled expression, and then as if he had thought of something, his expression changed to one of sudden enlightenment.

It seems that Mr. Jack recognized me. Well, fortunately, with Mr. Fool, this shouldn't cause any problems. Besides, Mr. Jack is a good man... Justice Audrey comforted herself in her heart, but she didn't feel panicked.

After all, she really believed in the Fool and felt from the bottom of her heart that Jack was not a bad person.

The interaction between them was naturally seen by the Hanged Man Alger who was standing next to them, which made Alger frown.

"Justice" meets the new member "Emperor"?
Honestly, this discovery gave Alger the Hanged Man a sudden sense of crisis. As a man with both ambition and brains, and very willing to climb the social ladder, Alger naturally did not want "Justice" to form an alliance with the new member, as this would easily threaten his position in Tarot.

However, after carefully observing Mr. "Emperor" next to him, the Hanged Man Alger actually breathed a sigh of relief, because he found that this new member seemed to be a relatively simple person. The other party's various body language showed that he was not a very cautious person.

And this means it is easy to fool people.

Rowling could naturally guess what Justice Audrey and the Hanged Man Alger were thinking, but he didn't care about it. He just seriously interpreted Jack's character, greeted them curiously and enthusiastically, and then looked forward to the next fixed part of the Tarot Club.

Sure enough, the next second Justice Audrey raised her hand and said that she had collected four more pages of "Roselle's Diary".

This is a larger number than in the original work. The reason for this change is naturally thanks to Rowling. During this period, he asked Mr. A to sell a lot of "Time Travel Diaries". Although these diaries will definitely not all fall into the hands of the Tarot Club, some of them will inevitably fall into the hands of Tarot Club members.

Klein the Fool was naturally very happy with this amount and asked Justice Audrey what she wanted to exchange these diaries for. The latter naturally wanted the Sequence 7 Psychiatrist Potion formula.

This was a bit beyond Mr. Fool's ability. Fortunately, Derrick the Sun came to the rescue in time and said that he could find the psychiatrist's potion formula, but he needed the potion formula of the Sun Path in exchange.

Justice Audrey naturally didn't have the formula for the Sun Path potion, but fortunately, Klein the Fool did have it, thanks to his last fatal divination of the Eternal Blazing Sun. Thus, a three-party deal was successfully concluded: The Fool would pay Sun Derrick for the Sun Path potion formula, Justice Audrey would pay gold pounds to Mr. Fool's followers, and finally, Sun Derrick would pay Miss Justice for the Psychiatrist potion formula.

At this point, everyone was satisfied.

Klein finally began to read today's diary. The first two pages were distinctively Russell's, mainly mentioning the exchange of similar sequences and Russell's participation in a gathering of an unknown ancient organization to view the blasphemous slate. Klein felt as if a chapter had been interrupted.

Emperor, if you have the guts, tell me the name of that organization!

Klein complained inwardly and turned to the next page of the diary. His eyes fixed, because the date clearly no longer belonged to Russell, but was suspected to belong to a time traveler from the Zoroast family.

The diary reads:
"September 8, sunny.

Today, Amon suddenly taught me some history about the Tudor Dynasty in the Fourth Era, which surprised me. It turned out that the Blood Emperor Tudor was actually a mad god. He told me that it was with his help that Tudor was promoted to the Red Priest. This seems to be the name of Sequence 0 of the Hunter Path.

But what is a bit strange is that when Amon talked about this history, his expression was very subtle. It was hard to tell whether he was happy or unhappy. I even felt that he might be missing that time.

"Would a being like him also miss something? Could it be that he had a good relationship with Tudor?"

This time, the diary entry was a bombshell from the start. The amount of information contained in it even stunned Klein for a moment, but fortunately, no one else noticed.

Klein quickly adjusted his mindset and his brain began to work rapidly:
"The existence of gods is called Sequence 0? This aligns with the Sequence Path. So the legendary Path to God is indeed referring to the Sequence Path. So, the pinnacle of every path can actually lead to godhood?"

"Blood Emperor Tudor is actually a Sequence 0. Could this be the reason why the Primordial Witch was willing to have a child with him? So, the Four Emperors' War is actually a war between four Sequence Zeros?"

"Amon actually helped Tudor become a god. No wonder he became Duke Amon of the Tudor Empire..."

Thoughts flashed through Klein's mind one after another. While Mr. Fool was memorizing this secret knowledge, he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart.

"Speaking of which, wasn't Zoroaster still plotting his escape last time? He even wrote about his plan in his diary and was wary of Amon. Why is he suddenly studying history with Amon? Is that really okay?"

Klein was very confused. This was the third time he had seen Zoroaster's diary. At the last Tarot Club, there was also a diary from this fellow time traveler. It wasn't long, and it basically described some of the other party's complaints after being captured by Amon, as well as some ideas for escape plans.

However, not long after this, the other party's vigilance towards Amon seemed to have been greatly reduced.
