Lord of the Mysteries: Yao Guang

"……What do you want to do?"

The brass-haired lady raised her hand little by little, and slowly stepped back, keeping distance from Esther who was holding the revolver.

Esther raised her chin in the direction of leaving the bush:

"Wait for you to go, ma'am, I have already told you."

The lady glanced at the revolver in Esther's hand unwillingly: "My gun..."

"That's unnecessary. We don't know each other well, so there's no reason to go back."

Esther's fingers pressed against the hammer, which made the lady who was still thinking about luck give up other ideas.

She bent down decisively to pick up the beads on the ground, then walked out quickly, and quickly moved away from the range behind the house, not even caring about leaving the direction of her back to Esther.

There was a strange and hidden power exerted on Esther. She glanced at the gun in her hand and realized that she had lost the desire to attack this lady.

Esther shook her head: "By imposing extraordinary abilities on my things? One or two are so smart, it's really distressing. Is it only the 'hunter' path that specializes in idiots?"*

Danitz counts as one, and the red-haired lady who is being targeted counts as half, and it feels like they are all very easy to use.

A few spots of light fell from Esther's hair, and briefly outlined a circle in the nearby air before collapsing.

She didn't take the harvest revolver with her, but stuffed it directly under the bushes, and then left here too.

Esther has not eliminated the mystical traces of the revolver itself. If the lady came back and found the gun, she would not be able to find Esther whose contact had been severed.

But if the man came back to search the scene and found the revolver, it would eventually be traced to the woman, and Esther had nothing to do with it.

On the way back to the hotel, Esther didn’t run into the team of “Punishers” again, and she wasn’t interested in finding out why they came to the island. She found a restaurant and ate a grilled dish with stewed mushrooms and fruit. Cake, I will go back to the hotel where I stayed soon.

When Esther entered the hotel, the owner at the front desk eyed her suspiciously, because he had no impression of seeing the lady staying.

Esther grabbed it casually, and during the trance time when the boss lost his memory, she leisurely walked up the stairs and returned to her room.

Sitting by the bed until three o'clock in the afternoon, the familiar light enveloped Esther's eyes again.

-

"Mr. Fool, good afternoon~"

The brisk voice of "Justice" sounded, and Klein, who was covered by the gray fog, smiled and nodded, responding to her.

Klein decided to communicate with "Lover" through "The World" today, and hand over the badge with the symbols of "Fate" and "Hidden" to Esther.

After receiving Mr. Azik's reply two days ago, Klein has confirmed that the organization that belongs to the "Thief" pathway does exist. It is said that it originated from the remnants of those "Thief" families in the Fourth Epoch. "The Hermit of Destiny".

Although both the Jacob family and the Zoroaster family lost their news after the "Battle of the Four Emperors", judging from the effectiveness of this badge, the spread of this route has been transferred from the open to the underground, leaving only Under the dark inheritance.

After learning this information, Klein suspected that they did this to avoid the "blasphemer" Amon based on the situation Esther had described and his own experience.

The ability of the "parasite" is too weird, even Extraordinary people of the same path must be extremely vigilant.

The "thief" parasitic on Leonard went to a meeting. If Esther wanted to seek the extraordinary characteristics of the "parasite", this channel was the most suitable for her.

The badge itself is harmless, and participating in the party has clear benefits for Esther, and the danger is very low. The result of the pendulum divination gave Klein enough answers to make such a plan.

However, Klein also checked ahead of time. The next time for this "Thieves" gathering will be at nine o'clock in the evening on June [-]th. It's only January, and there's still a lot of time. Esther doesn't need to worry at all.

In this Tarot meeting, only the "Magician" and "Moon" each submitted two pages of Roselle's diary. After seeing the "Magician" requesting to accumulate contributions, "Moon" of course chose to follow her. Do.

Since several transactions had just been concluded in the last Tarot meeting, this time the transaction was not so eager, only the little "sun" bought the fruit of the radiant Qiling tree, "the world" bought the eyes of the six-winged gargoyle, and the others There are no new requirements for now.

When "The Hanged Man" suddenly asked to communicate with Esther alone, she was still at a loss for a moment.

"Miss Lover, the bounty issued by the church has already arrived in my hands. I will sacrifice three thousand pounds to Mr. Fool after the Tarot Society ends today."

Esther immediately sat up straight: "Okay, but I can only hold the praying ceremony tomorrow, may I ask Mister Fool?"

"The Fool" nodded leisurely, expressing that it doesn't matter.

But "The Hanged Man" didn't intend to end this exchange directly: "Miss 'Lover', I would like to ask if you know the situation of 'Lie Yan'? He caused a lot of trouble this time."

Although Esther once helped Klein write a stack of "little advertisements", she really didn't know what happened afterwards: "Danitz? What happened to him?"

Hearing Esther's answer, "The Hanged Man" felt a little doubtful: "Are you not in Bayam now?"

"No, I took the last ferry to Simim Island yesterday, and I haven't gone back to Bayam yet." Esther didn't think it was inconvenient to say it. She didn't have a head worth more than four thousand gold pounds.

"So, you are really lucky." "The Hanged Man" pondered for two seconds, but reminded the "lover", "The government and the church are searching for suspicious people in Bayam, and the investigation may cause 'Sea God' The source of Kavitua's madness, the risk of recent activities in Bayam will be higher."

Esther nodded immediately: "Thank you for your advice, but... I won't hide it from you, my friend is still over there, I have to go back and meet him."

"Okay, then pay attention to yourselves." "The Hanged Man" still doesn't know the scope of "Lover"'s ability. Now that she has made up her mind, he has nothing to say.

It's a pity that "Lover" doesn't know the specific situation, he has no way to find out more inside information, but maybe that friend of "Lover" is with "Lie Yan"?

Thinking of this, "The Hanged Man" glanced at the "World" at the end of the table before turning back to "The Fool": "I have no other questions, thank you."

Esther also paid tribute to "The Fool" who provided the opportunity to communicate alone: ​​"Thank you very much."

In the subsequent exchange session, "Justice" shared some of Backlund's follow-up handling of the "Great Smog Incident", including that the Evernight Goddess Church had built several new churches in the Eastern District for some reason, and many nobles participated in the fundraising.

"Magician" has just been promoted these days, and he doesn't know much about the changes in the outside world, but "Moon" has added side information. According to him, many civilians are still slightly infected, and the plague spreading among the cities has not yet completely ended .

But everything seemed to be getting better, but Esther's heart was still a little empty when she heard the final count of more than [-] deaths and even missing persons.

Forget it, she just did her best, and she never expected to save everyone... But there are still some resentments entrenched in her heart, which made Esther's hatred of the "witch" even deeper.

The news provided by the "Sun" was farther away from everyone. He said that the "Chief" of the City of Silver had led an exploration team and the little boy Jack to find a route to the sea.

"The Hanged Man" and "The Lover" kept silent about Bayam's matter very tacitly, but the reasons were different. The "Hanged Man" was out of worry about the follow-up situation, while the "Lovers" was because Awareness of information is incomplete.

The "World" remained silent as always, but applied to the "Fool" for an opportunity to communicate with the "Lover" alone after everyone else had spoken.

The hoarse voice of "World" came from under the cloak, and the breath on his body was still so gloomy: "If you are still looking for news about the extraordinary characteristics of the 'Parasite', I have a clue."

Because of her excitement, Esther leaned forward subconsciously, staring at the direction of "World": "Mr. World is very efficient. What kind of news is it? Do I need to pay gold pounds?"

"No need, because I don't know the internal organization of the 'Stealer' organization. If you can participate, I hope you can get some information from it."

"The 'Thief' organization? It seems that only I can try it, and the risks are all at my own risk, right?"

"The World" chuckled darkly twice: "You can also seek the protection of Mister Fool."

This is something I didn't expect. Could it be that "The World" is not the real client, but Mister Fool is also interested in that organization?Esther suppressed the urge to turn her head towards the long bronze table seat.

There is no need to observe Mister Fool's face, his face is covered with gray mist.

There are risks, but it proves that there may also be opportunities. Esther sees this very clearly.

After weighing for a few seconds, she nodded to "World": "I can agree to this task, but I'm at sea right now."

"Don't worry," the voice of "World" lowered again, "According to my inquiries, their next gathering will be in June, and it will take time for me to get the voucher for the party from the other party."

Of course Esther didn't become suspicious, after all, the commission came from the "world", so of course he had the final say.

And Klein, who controlled the "world" to have this conversation, went around such a big circle, and also wanted to delay the progress of this matter for a while, and hand over the badge to Esther in two weeks, for the sake of The "world" creates a task of acting outside the world in a reasonable and reasonable way.

In this way, from Esther's perspective, there will be a further information gap between the identities of the "world" and "Gehrman". Ryan's identity becomes suspicious.

It must be incredible for Esther that her fellow countryman is acting as a god here.

Klein raised his hand and announced to the Tarot Society:

"Let's be here today."

"Follow your will, Mister Fool."

Under the leadership of "Justice", everyone stood up and saluted the god in the gray mist.

After "The Fool" nodded, their figures dispersed from the gray mist.

*Only represents the stereotype of Esther "The Thief", and does not represent the author's personal views.After all, there are Anderson and Xiaolu who are working hard to raise the average line of the "Red Priest".
