Chapter 486: Klein's Conjectures

Emlyn was similarly confused. Words like "Rose Redemption,""Angel of

Fate," and "destroying the repeated cycle of fate" were beyond his

understanding. He only felt that he could understand every word, but had

no idea what they meant when placed together.

*Could it be that the young Sun had just escaped the pursuit of an

angel?* Emlyn guessed from the small amount of information he

could understand.

After Derrick thanked Mr. Fool, The Hanged Man shifted his position

slightly, leaned slightly towards him, and kicked off from Miss

Justice's question. He said in a normal tone, "What was the exact

sequence of events?"

Derrick didn't hide anything and honestly replied, "Miss Justice, Mr.

Hanged Man, Miss Magician, and Mr. World, thank you for your concern,

and thank you for the suggestions you previously gave me. In my sixth

exploration, I tried..."

He described his actions and the corresponding results, highlighting the

matter that the little boy, Jack, came from Enmat Harbor and the details

of the Rose Redemption murals.

*Enmat Harbor... That strange little boy, Jack, is really from the Loen

Kingdom. In other words, the Forsaken Land of God, where the City of

Silver is, is somehow connected to the Northern and Southern continents

in some way. As long as one finds the right place, they'll be able to

enter...* Klein seemed to be listening leisurely, but he had

made a judgment in his mind.

Enmat Harbor was located to the east of Tingen City and was one of the

most famous seaports in the central region of the Loen Kingdom. Together

with Pritz Harbor to the south, they supported the resupply of more than

half of Backlund's goods.

*The Spirit Medium, Ma'am Daly, had once "settled" there, and Mr. Z of

the Aurora Order seems to be there as well...* Klein recalled

something from the past.

The same judgment also appeared in the minds of Alger, Audrey, and Fors.

Towards this, some of them had pure excitement, others filled with

curiosity and worry, fearing that the all-consuming darkness around the

City of Silver would continue to spread, eventually enveloping both the

Northern and Southern Continent and the five seas.

"The Chief told me that he recalled some unverified content recorded in

some ancient books, based on matters that had happened and my warning.

Rumor has it that when the Lord that created everything, the omnipotent

and omniscient God had 'His' attention on this piece of land, he had

several angels surrounding him. And there were eight leaders of the

angels, powerful beings that were closest to god's throne. Among them

included the son of God." Derrick recalled Demon Hunter Colin's words

and slowly said, "He suspected that Amon is the Angel of Time among the

Kings of Angels, and the mural depicted the Angel of Fate, Tail Devourer

Ouroboros.

*Eight Kings of Angels? The eight Kings of Angels who are closest to the

Creator's throne?* Audrey was inexplicably excited when she

heard this.

She couldn't help but curiously ask, "Mr. Sun, what are the titles of

the other six Kings of Angels and their names?"

"The Chief didn't say, nor did I dare to ask..." Derrick replied,

ashamed.

I really want to know the answer... Audrey subconsciously

looked towards the end of the long bronze table, looking longingly at

Mr. Fool who was shrouded in gray fog, hoping to get the appropriate

answer.

She had already decided on the price she was willing to pay.

Why are you looking at me... I don't know either... Klein

controlled the twitching of the corners of his mouth.

Of course, he wasn't completely clueless. He could barely guess who two

of the Kings of Angels were.

*The evil spirit in the underground ruin had described the Medici family

as one of the founders of Rose Redemption. According to that mural, the

Angel of Fate, Ouroboros, is likely one of the leaders of Rose

Redemption. Both basically have equivalent standing, which is to say

that the Medici family possesses a King of Angels, but it cannot be

determined if "He" has already perished...*

*The Medici family is suspected to be in control of the Hunter pathway,

which is the Red Priest pathway. That King of Angels' title should be

Red Angel or War Angel...*

*Since the son of God is a King of Angels, Amon is one of them, being

Angel of Time. Then Adam might not be one, but I can't confirm "His"

title... As for the other four Kings of Angels, I can't guess who they

are... Perhaps, there might be one or a few of them inside the Twilight

Hermit Order...*

*It's possible! The Twilight Hermit Order views the Fallen Creator as

its enemy, making it at odds against Rose Redemption which worships that

evil god. Perhaps, its true origin comes from those few Kings of

Angels...*

*Right, there's indirect evidence which isn't substantial enough.

According to the legends of the City of Silver, the authority of the

Dragon of Imagination, Ankewelt, was taken back by the Creator.

Logically speaking, it's not impossible for the Lord that created

everything to give a portion of the authority to a King of Angels by

"His" throne. And from the description and guesses from Roselle's diary,

the Twilight Hermit Order likely has a Spectator, which has the strength

at the level of an angel in the Visionary pathway or even higher. The

two can form a correspondence... Hermes is a person who had experienced

that piece of history...* As these thoughts flashed through his

mind, Klein smiled and said, "You will come into contact with it in the

future."

*When I figure it out, I'll sell you the appropriate

information...* he added inwardly.

Seeing that Mr. Fool had no intention of answering, Audrey looked away

with a slight sense of loss, motioning Little Sun to continue his story.

Alger had a bold idea.

*The history before the Cataclysm can no longer be referenced. At the

end of the Third Epoch and the beginning of the Fourth Epoch, there were

only the six orthodox gods. Together with Amon and the Tail Devourer,

aren't there eight? 'They' had benefited from the death of the Creator

and succeeded in advancing to Sequence 0?*

For a moment, Alger felt that his thoughts were blasphemous actions that

could be punished by fire, but he was also unable to contain his

excitement. He finally calmed down and concentrated on listening to

Little Sun tell his story.

Towards all of this, Emlyn could only respond with a blank look.

Although the Sanguine had a long history and life span, so they knew

quite a bit about the history before the Cataclysm, they were all

concentrated before the Ancestor fell asleep, and it didn't involve the

so-called "Kings of Angels."

While Derrick was recounting the details of how the City of Silver,

Chief Colin, destroyed the repeated cycles of fate, Klein was thinking

of another matter.

*It can be roughly confirmed that the Tail Devourer, Ouroboros, is the

Sequence 1 Snake of Mercury of the Monster pathway. All the Kings of

Angels correspond to Sequence 1's?*

*Could that Angel of Fate be the one pursuing Will Auceptin? If he is,

that means that the True Creator's forces in Backlund aren't limited to

Mr. A and his subordinates. However, the two Snakes of Mercury are

fighting for the position of Sequence 0, to the point of draining all of

the Tail Devourer's strength. He should be fully occupied and cannot

spare time for this...*

*Of course, I can't eliminate the possibility that Will Auceptin is

equivalent to Ouroboros. However, the chances aren't high. Rose

Redemption has quite a number of demigods and even angels. There's no

need to let the Tail Devourer restart his life as an ordinary person

without protection.*

*There's another possibility. The two Snakes of Mercury in Backlund

aren't the Angel of Fate. The latter is still active in the Forsaken

Land of God. That way, all three Snakes of Mercury are accounted

for.*

After finishing his recount of how they escaped the cycle, Derrick

expressed his gratitude once again. As for Audrey and company, despite

listening to the repeated events a second time, it still left them

shivering down to their bones, filling them with curiosity and fear.

*This is beyond my knowledge of Beyonder powers. It's all thanks to the

help Mr. Fool gave!* Audrey sincerely praised the Tarot Club's

master from the bottom of her heart, feeling full of confidence.

Alger and the others had similar thoughts as her. They all thought that

the repeated cycles of life were close to a miracle that could only be

destroyed by a deity. Fortunately, the master of the Tarot Club was a

deity. Mr. Fool was a deity!

At that moment, Derrick looked opposite him and sincerely said, "Miss

Magician, due to some unexpected circumstances on our return to the City

of Silver, despite it having been resolved, we have slowed down. It will

prevent us from returning to the City of Silver on time. Your Spirit

Eater's stomach pouch will require another day or two. Yes, I believe

I'm no longer under surveillance."

"No problem, I can wait. I've prepared enough gold," Fors said as she

let out a sigh.

She had sold the Mirror Dragon's eyes to Miss Justice and had received

1,000 pounds in cash.

After informing her teacher, Dorian, of the exact results, her honesty

had been praised and approved. Dorian told her that the 800 pounds offer

had been made in order to give her about 100 pounds in "labor fees." As

such, the extra 200 pounds would be a bonus for her. In other words, she

had earned 300 pounds. Together with her original savings, she now had a

total of 650 pounds, which was enough to buy the stomach pouch of a

Spirit Eater.

With this, Dorian trusted her a lot and revealed a lot of information

regarding ingredients.

*It will take me at least two weeks to digest the rest of the potion.

I'm not in a hurry...* Looking diagonally across the table, Fors

said, "Mr. Hanged Man, there's news of the Dragon-Eyed Sea Condor you

require. 2,200 pounds."

Dorian had given a reference price of 2,000 pounds. On the one hand,

Fors had allowed room for bargaining, and on the other hand, wished to

earn a little more.

2,200 pounds... Alger couldn't help but frown.

His financial situation wasn't looking good after he purchased the

Wind-blessed potion formula. Although he still had some secret savings,

they were either of use elsewhere, or he hadn't been able to find a

buyer for a long time.

Phew. He secretly let out a sigh and calmly said, "Very well,

but I'll need some time to collect the funds. In addition, yours is too

expensive, I have many channels to get cheaper ones. 1,900 pounds.

That's the highest price I can accept."

"No, 2,000 pounds. That's the bottom line!" Fors replied without

hesitation.

She was afraid that if she made too high an offer, then the other party

would give up the deal.

Alger immediately nodded.

"Deal!

This... Fors was somewhat stunned.

After listening by the side and witnessing the conclusion of a deal,

Emlyn thought and eagerly asked, "Ladies and gentlemen, does anyone know

how a Sanguine can improve their strength without relying on the

bestowment of their elders?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt numerous gazes land on him.

Sanguine? Is that the vampires of legends? Audrey's eyes

sparkled as she studied Mr. Moon.

And as a novelist, Fors no doubt had all sorts of beautiful or exotic

fantasies of the Sanguine, and her eyes were just as bright.

Sanguine? Alger was taken aback at first, but he soon relaxed

his brows.

*A vampire hiding in the darkness, covered in pus, while moving like the

wind?* Derrick couldn't help but look sideways to size up Emlyn.

Sanguine? The World was late by a second before giving a

normal, necessary response.
