Chapter 65 Audrey and Alger's Speculation
Miss Justice Audrey felt that Mr. Fool was spending too much time looking at the diary provided by Mr. Power, and couldn't help but secretly peek at Mr. Power diagonally opposite her.
Two days ago, she saw a handsome man at her family's dinner party. She felt that he looked familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen him before.
Given the other person's appearance, I would never forget them if I had seen them before, let alone now that I have become a "spectator," I would be even less likely to forget them.
I only learned from conversations with other people that he was a famous political star and the younger brother of Congressman Robert.
It wasn't until she climbed the mysterious palace again that she realized the man who looked familiar was actually very similar in build and appearance to Mr. 'Strength'. However, because of Mr. 'Fool's' protection, they couldn't see the details of each other's appearance and could only make out a blurry image, so she didn't make the connection for a moment.
In reality, Evan is more humble and polite, while "Power" at the Tarot meeting is more arrogant.
"Are they actually the same person? This must be the first time I've ever seen a member of the Tarot Club in real life."
They must be one person. I heard that this government employee hiring bill was spearheaded by Congressman Robert. The reform content is extremely similar to what I learned in the gray fog before. Maybe it was Mr. Power who was pushing it. There are only four people who know about this bill, including Mr. Fool. I haven't even found an opportunity to push it forward yet, and this bill has already appeared out of nowhere.
Should I take another opportunity to observe further, or even test the waters?
No, no, Mr. Power might be upset about that. After all, we're not very familiar with each other yet, and we don't really trust each other. But I'm really curious!
Audrey kept stealing glances at Mr. "Power," her mind racing with thoughts.
Miss Justice's scrutiny of Mr. Power naturally did not escape the notice of the shrewd Alger and Eben himself.
Alger, the "Hanged Man," directly speculates whether "Justice" and "Power" have already met in the real world, and then wonders if "Power" is also a Rune.
Evan was not surprised that Audrey recognized him, so he was prepared and faced Audrey's furtive glances with composure, even turning his head to smile at her again.
This made Audrey feel like she had been caught spying on someone, and her face felt hot. At the same time, she was basically certain that Evan was the man who had smiled at her at the dinner party and brushed past her. He had recognized her back then.
Meanwhile, "The Fool" finished reading Russell's diary, while Audrey looked forward with envy to one day exchanging the contents of Russell's diary with "The Fool".
Meanwhile, Evan, who was listening nearby, chuckled to himself: "I hope one day it turns into Roselle driving a jackhammer day and night, shouting about the taste of a witch."
Then, remembering how she had been forced to "go to bed with men despite knowing they were men," she couldn't laugh anymore.
Audrey then consulted the Fool again about the details of the role-playing method.
The Fool, drawing on his own reflections over the past period, provided a brilliant answer that greatly benefited Audrey and Alger. They both inquired what they would offer in exchange for this answer.
At the same time, they all noticed that Mr. Power, who was also listening to Mr. Fool's summary of the role-playing method, did not share their gratitude for Mr. Fool's explanation, and Mr. Fool did not react to this either, leading them to make their own guesses.
"It seems that in Mr. 'Power's' eyes, Mr. Fool's answer about the method of acting is not outside his understanding, so he believes that he should not pay the price he deserves, and Mr. Fool obviously agrees with this."
Just who is Mr. "Power" to possess such a profound understanding of the art of role-playing? He is definitely not an ordinary extraordinary individual. Indeed, Mr. Fool's recruitment of members always has a deep meaning.
Alger couldn't help but wonder about Evan's identity.
According to Viscount Grelint, Mr. "Power" has already joined MI9, so he is very proud and unwilling to participate in the circle of young nobles, but at the same time he is well-informed and knows a lot about the mysterious world.
From this perspective, Mr. "Power" is not someone who relies solely on his brother's fame; he must also be a very capable person. His arrogance may not be the arrogance of an extraordinary being towards ordinary people, but rather the arrogance of someone who deeply understands the method of acting and is confident that he can go further on the path of an extraordinary being.
Fortunately, I was lucky enough to attend the Tarot club organized by Mr. Fool, and learned about role-playing; otherwise, I might have been nothing special in his eyes.
Klein, the Fool, sitting at the head of the table, could naturally see the Hanged Man and Justice peeking at the Power, and partially guessed what they were thinking. He couldn't help but smile bitterly to himself.
"All my potion-playing techniques were taught by Evan, how could I possibly ask him for payment?"
At the same time, the "Fool" made his own demands on the surface:
"More from the Russell Diaries or any information about the Antigonus family."
Alger remained silent, glanced cautiously at Mr. Fool sitting at the head of the table, and carefully spoke:
"I know some things about the Antigonus family, which is payment for the answers you just gave me."
After the Fool's signal, Alger looked around at the other two and then said:
"The Antigonus family is an ancient family that dates back to the ancient Quaternary period and is said to be associated with the second profane tablet."
With Audrey's help, Alger then recounted the origins of the two blasphemous tablets, informing Roselle that he had seen the second tablet and even listing a series of names that had once been prominent in the Fourth Epoch. He also revealed that the Antigonus family possessed the "diviner's" pathway and had been destroyed by the Church of the Night.
These messages startled "The Fool" Klein.
The thing that brought 'Zhou Mingrui' to another world and caused the original owner's death was a lost notebook belonging to a member of a secret society who possessed the 'diviner' pathway.
I chose the 'diviner' path because of Emperor Roselle's notes.
Riel Bieber, whom she met by chance, is also a descendant of the Antigonus family, who possess the skills of the "diviner".
Even the church organization he joined was the culprit behind the downfall of the Antigonus family.
This series of coincidences and events made Klein feel closely connected to the 'diviner' path and to the fate of the Antigonus family, leading Klein to wonder if something was attracting these things around him.
Finally, he turned his gaze to the ubiquitous gray fog around him.
Just as Klein suspected a deep connection between the gray mist and the 'Diviner' pathway, Evan, who had been silent all along, chuckled and said:
"All the families that Mr. Hanged Man mentioned can be called 'angel families,' and the Antigonus family even has an 'archangel.'"
The current royal families of the Kingdom of Rune, such as the Augustus family, the royal families of the Fussac Empire, such as the Castilian family of the Kingdom of Fennepot, and the Soren family, which was almost destroyed by Emperor Roselle, were all inferior to these families back then.
This shows that in the world of extraordinary individuals, "survival of the fittest" still prevails.
Evan spoke casually, as if showing off, as he delivered the frightening information. He even gave Alger a provocative look, as if to say, "You dare to flaunt the little information you know?" This infuriated Alger, but he was helpless to do anything about it.
Klein and Audrey were both shocked by the news, because the word "angel" only appeared in the Bible, and they never expected that there would be an "angel family" in the real world.
But they quickly accepted this explanation, after all, the Augustus family had ruled as the royal family in the Kingdom of Rune for over a thousand years, which was long enough.
