Mystery: Chaos Path

#55 - Why not ask the Fool for help?

Without a doubt, Mr. Door is a good person with a normal moral compass. Therefore, even though he was wary of this unknown existence, after Roland genuinely helped him suppress some of the Outer God's corruption, Mr. Door's goodwill towards Roland honestly rose to nearly thirty.

Roland believed that once Mr. Door was completely sure that he was not hostile to Earth, even if he took no other actions, this goodwill would likely increase a bit more.

But in any case, as an Angel King who was one step away from becoming a god, the nearly thirty points of goodwill from Mr. Door meant that Roland could finally borrow the Traveler's abilities and use the long-awaited Traveling ability.

"I formally announce that Mr. Door has been promoted to one of my favorite angels," Roland said solemnly, then shamelessly patted his chest and said, "Of course, I don't deny that my heart is durian-shaped."

"Hahaha..."

After amusing himself for a while, Roland tried out the Traveling ability and arrived in Backlund, then placed the letter he had written in the agreed-upon location.

Roland then used the Traveling ability to wander around, and after the novelty wore off, he returned to Tingen and began his studies for the day.

When it was almost evening, Roland stopped studying and took a tram to Daffodil Street.

With Jack Jones' personality, how could he not go to Klein, who was also a Tarot Club preparatory member, after joining the Tarot Club? This is a detail of his character.

Moreover, Roland actually wanted to persecute Mr. Fool in person.

So it was night, when Klein and Leonard finished dealing with the abnormal death incident in the lower district, and returned home after an extraordinary battle, they found that there was another guest in the house besides his brother Benson and sister Melissa.

"Klein, good evening, you're finally back?" Roland greeted enthusiastically.

"Good evening, Teacher Jack." Klein wasn't too surprised, after all, he could guess that with Jack's personality, he would definitely come to find him after joining the Tarot Club, so he also smiled and greeted Roland.

"Mr. Jack has been waiting for you for a long time. I didn't expect you to come back so late tonight." Benson looked at Klein, his expression not containing blame, but rather some concern, "It seems that a generous salary always comes with a price."

"If you want to get anything in this world, you always have to pay the price first," Klein said, taking off his coat, and then heard his stomach rumble.

This was normal, because of the sudden extraordinary event, Klein hadn't had dinner yet.

"Here, I knew you would be working overtime on an empty stomach so late, so I prepared a late-night snack for you, surprise?" Roland handed Klein a box as if he had expected it, and inside was Dici pie.

"Thank you." Klein took the Dici pie and couldn't help but smile.

Melissa, who was doing her homework next to him, also raised her head and pointed to the kitchen, "Klein, I also left you something in the kitchen."

So Klein, who thought he would go to bed hungry, was instantly fed into a full-bellied cat by his relatives and friends.

After eating, Klein took Roland to his room and asked with a straight face, "Why did you suddenly come to find me today?"

Then Klein saw Roland looking at him with accusing eyes, which made Mr. Fool feel a little guilty, and then he coughed lightly and said, "What's wrong?"

"Klein, you knew long ago that Mr. Fool is not an evil god, right?" Roland really didn't know where he took out a pair of glasses and put them on his nose, looking like a cosplaying great detective, and said:

"No wonder you were so confident in comforting me before, and told me not to investigate Mr. Fool anymore, huh, as expected, you had already become a preparatory member of the Tarot Club at that time, right?"

Mr. Jack, is there a possibility that Mr. Fool told you not to tell others about the Tarot Club?

Klein complained in his heart, but he also understood why Jack said it so bluntly, after all, in Jack's perception, he, Klein, belonged to the Tarot Club preparatory member, and naturally was not "other people".

Klein quickly conceived a plan in his heart, and said with an apologetic expression, "I'm sorry, teacher, I only accidentally became a preparatory member of the Tarot Club not long ago, because Mr. Fool doesn't want others to know about this, so I haven't told you all this time, I'm really sorry, can you forgive me?"

"It depends on your sincerity." Roland raised his chin slightly, triumphantly.

"Then may I ask what kind of sincerity does the teacher want to see?" Klein asked obediently.

Roland showed a thoughtful expression, then his eyes lit up and said, "I want to see you meow."

Klein meowing is a classic of the Mysteries, of course, I have to check in.

"Ah?" Klein was stunned for a moment, obviously he hadn't thought of this.

"Can't you? Or are you really lying to me." Roland had an expression of "My rebellious son hurts my heart".

"Cough, it's not that it's impossible..." Although he was a little embarrassed, Klein was, after all, a person who could play the Fool without blinking an eye, so after quickly preparing himself mentally, he said:

"Meow!"

One mistake, one first, one inside, one content, one to see!

However, he used too much force, so that his voice was a little hoarse.

"Hiss, are you a gangster?" Roland exaggeratedly sucked in a breath of cold air.

This made Klein give him a roll of his eyes unhappily, but he still coughed, cleared his throat, and said expressionlessly:

"Meow ~"

This sound was much more normal.

"It's a pity there's no mobile phone..." Roland muttered regretfully, but quickly cheered up and nodded, "But let's just leave it at that!"

Roland then showed a puzzled expression and looked at Klein and said, "But Klein, since you know that Mr. Fool is a good god, then why before?"

What he meant here was naturally the matter of Klein losing his composure because of "Blessing of the Celestial Worthy".

"Mr. Fool may be a good god..." Klein glanced at Roland, his expression also becoming serious, and said, "But is there a possibility that Blessing of the Celestial Worthy is not Mr. Fool?"

"Huh?" Roland showed a dazed expression, and then seemed to suddenly realize, "So the one who interfered with your fate was Blessing of the Celestial Worthy, not Mr. Fool, right?"

"Maybe." Klein did not give a direct answer, after all, things on him were as messy as hemp, Mr. Azik said, more than one person interfered with his fate, who knows who has done something.

"So that's how it is." Roland pinched his chin and thought for a few seconds, then suddenly looked at Klein and said, "Then can we ask Mr. Fool for help? His honorific name is so similar to that Blessing of the Celestial Worthy, maybe he knows him?"
