Mystery: When the Fool Meets the Masked Fool

Chapter 90 [Joy] Path
Audrey was clearly quite interested in this extraordinary path: "Do you have any fate potions?"

"Of course not," Ceres denied, "Because I am on the path of joy, I only created potions for the destiny of joy."

Although he hadn't started yet, the principle was clear. This was essentially a similar operation to the "Gift" system. While he had dabbled in other destinies to some degree, the only one he had a deep understanding of was [Pleasure].

"Is that so? Okay then." Audrey was still more interested in the [Intelligence] and [Memory] paths. She also thought [Hunting] was a good option; she felt it seemed quite romantic.

"So, will other fateful potions appear later?"

"No. I am a Joy Walker after all, and other destinies are still a bit beyond my scope." Serris smiled.

Derrick imitated Audrey's movements and raised his hand to ask, "So what would happen if the Chief took this potion?"

"No problem. He will most likely become a Beyonder with three different Beyonder types. However, strength isn't solely determined by the number of Beyonder abilities. Proficiency and proper coordination are the correct ways to help Beyonders become strong."

Derrick pondered for a moment. Serris added, "But no matter what, a dual path is always better than a single one. Even if the second path is only Sequence Nine."

At this moment, Mr. Fool, who was only at Sequence Nine, felt offended.

Don't worry, I'll soon be a Sequence Eight Joker. Klein consoled himself. Just think of it as playing the Joker in advance...

"If it's just [Pleasure], could you please briefly explain this path, Mr. Devil?" Audrey wanted to hear the details before considering whether to buy it.

"Of course." Serris agreed easily.

"The fate potion is the same as a normal extraordinary potion, from sequence nine to sequence zero." Serris first gave a basic summary of the potion itself.

Sequence zero?
This is a word that no one has heard of except Little Sun.

Knowing they lacked a basic understanding, Ceres paused and waited for them to ask questions.

The Hanged Man, Alger, had a vague suspicion in his mind, but seeing no one asked, he spoke up himself, "Mr. Devil, may I ask what Sequence Zero is?"

"I know that." Sun Derrick suddenly spoke, "Sequence Zero refers to the sequence where the True God resides."

Sequence 0 is the sequence where the true God is!

"So... Sequence Zero True Gods can also ascend through corresponding potions and rituals." The Hanged Man, Alger, was stunned and shocked at first, but then he muttered to himself in relief and joy.

Audrey covered her mouth. "Goddess, this... this is blasphemous! Oh, no, it should be 'Mr. Fool'."

Klein didn't react much. As a time traveler, he wasn't a devout believer in God, so he was naturally more accepting.

Becoming a god is normal. There are many stories of people ascending to immortality in their hometown.

Serris nodded. "Yes, that's right." He then continued to introduce the Path of Joy: "Sequence Nine: Mourning Actor. The Mourning Actor's primary ability is to spread sadness, causing those affected to feel grief. Furthermore, the Mourning Actor has a certain degree of foreseeing tragedy."

This is a bit like a demonic path, but since it's a Sequence Nine, the range and accuracy of the prediction should be greatly reduced, and there will likely be a certain amount of uncertainty. Alger analyzed in his mind.

"Sequence Eight: Strange Doctor. Acquires certain medical skills; the body can undergo minor, controllable mutations; can heal minor injuries through 'scare'; can sense or impart various emotions to others; has enhanced foresight of 'tragedy' and can actively take on 'tragedy', thereby achieving 'healing' of 'tragedy'."

The more they listened, the more they felt something was wrong. How could this be "joyful"?

The introduction continues.

"Sequence Seven: Candy Knight. Enhanced physical fitness; can create candy out of thin air, with candy having various positive or negative effects; can also harden candy to become armor, weapons, or candy soldiers; can cast some 'candy magic'."

Klein secretly complained to himself, this is a bit of a "joyful" feeling, the previous two were happy.

"Sequence Six: Battlefield Magician. Abilities include spatial transfer, turning pieces of paper into flying knives, creating illusions, and even folding parts of space."

"Sequence Five: Recollection Artist. Can store things in reality in memory; can materialize scenes from memory into reality; can distort, modify memories, or even exchange the memories of others."

Klein gasped. What a strange ability.

"Sequence Four: Selfless Clown. Gaining divinity, performance abilities are enhanced; existing abilities undergo a qualitative transformation: can give candy thoughts and life, can manipulate space at will, can turn reality into falsehood, and falsehood into reality."

At this point, Serris added, "Of course, it's limited by spirituality and divinity. If you don't have enough mana, there's nothing you can do."

"Sequence Three: Ether Ghost. Can modify and edit real-world data."

Although it is only a short sentence, the description is quite shocking.

"Sequence Two: The Adviser. Can heal 'sadness' into 'joy'; 'tragedy' into 'comedy'; 'bad luck' into 'luck'."

Such an abstract concept. Sun Derrick didn't understand.

"Sequence One: Useless Scholar. Masters a vast array of seemingly useless and absurd spells; possesses eyes that can analyze everything in the world; can learn the extraordinary abilities analyzed; can render the analyzed world absurd, distorted, and incomprehensible; can see through the direction of everything in the world, becoming an 'omniscient' being to a certain extent. Of course, this is also limited by the reserves of spirituality and divinity."

This… How is this useless? This is clearly invincible, okay? Klein cried out in his heart.

"Sequence Zero: Absurd Mask. Under the Mask's watchful gaze, all things rotate like intertwined gears. His laughter will become the world's main melody. As long as Absurd Mask finds something amusing, he can do it."

PS: Some people say that the updates are too infrequent, so after it is put on the shelves, we will temporarily change it to 6000 updates per day and see the effect first.
