#138 - The Importance of Tarot Club Reputation

Brain, work faster!

Fors felt her brain working at a speed she had never experienced before. Her eyes swept around, and suddenly lit up, saying, "Mr. Fool, besides me, has anyone else been here?"

The Fool, Klein, nodded and briefly introduced the existence of the Tarot Club to Fors.

The Tarot Club? Isn't that the organization that assisted the authorities in killing Rear Admiral Hurricane?

Fors was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting such a result, which made her couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Fool, was the Rear Admiral Hurricane incident done by your believers?"

"One of my blessed ones participated in this matter." The Fool, Klein, naturally wouldn't deny it. At the same time, he also felt the benefits of having Lucifer's support. Fors, who had just been extremely frightened and vigilant, relaxed a lot after receiving his confirmation.

In fact, this was indeed the case. If Fors thought of Mr. Fool as an evil god before knowing that he was related to the Tarot Club, now he was leaning towards a righteous god.

After all, the Tarot Club is a legitimate organization recognized by the Church and has a good relationship with the authorities. The existence that such an organization follows should not be an evil god.

This really relieved Fors, and while feeling that her soul was saved, she also became interested and asked:

"Mr. Fool, can I join this gathering?"

Fors wasn't stupid. She didn't want to get involved with an evil god, but if the other party was an existence close to a righteous god… This was an opportunity!

Although Fors's personality was a bit salted fish, she wasn't completely without ambition. The key was that even if she was facing a good god, Fors didn't dare to directly beg the other party to send her back.

In that case, it was better to fight for some rights for herself. Perhaps one day in the future, she could become a Sequence 6 or Sequence 5 powerhouse!

Thinking of this, Fors felt a little excited.

The Fool, Klein, naturally wouldn't disagree with this, so he just smiled and asked Fors to choose a Tarot card as her code name. After a little thought, Fors chose the major arcana card "The Magician."

After Fors was sent away, the Fool, Klein, shook his head with a slight smile and muttered: "Facts prove that the reputation of the organization is very important…"

If the Tarot Club's reputation was a little worse, it was estimated that Ms. Fors would have joined the club crying today.

At the same time, in Fors and Hugh's apartment—

"Fors? Fors, what's wrong? Are you okay?"

Hugh's hand was waving in front of Fors's face, her expression a little anxious.

"I'm fine!" Fors grabbed Hugh's waving hand, thinking of everything that had just happened on that mysterious gray fog, she was still a little unable to recover.

After all, this experience was too wonderful. Even Fors had never written about such a magical thing in her books.

But all of this naturally couldn't be told to Hugh, after all, she had promised Mr. Fool to keep it a secret.

So Fors just showed a smile and said: "I'm fine, I was just too sleepy just now, so I slept for a while."

"Huh?" Hugh was obviously stunned for a moment, and then looked Fors up and down again, confirming that the other party seemed to be really okay. Hugh couldn't help but complain: "Who told you to get up so early today, you're sleepy!"

"Don't mention it, I'm so sleepy." After being said this, Fors really felt a little sleepy, and couldn't help but yawn. Her eyes fell on the broken crystal ball again, and for a moment, she didn't know what to say.

This mysterious crystal ball had connected her, a small Sequence 8, with a mysterious existence. Even Fors didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing for her.

"But at least Mr. Fool shouldn't be an evil god. The Tarot Club has cooperation with the authorities… Could it be that the world is finally about to usher in the eighth righteous god?" Fors muttered in her heart, thinking of this possibility, even a salted fish like her couldn't help but feel a little excited.

Although Fors didn't know much about the history of the Fourth Epoch, she also knew that the current seven righteous gods didn't exist from the beginning. At least the God of Steam and Machinery she believed in was born at the end of the 4th Epoch, which was written in the scriptures.

Although no righteous god has been born since the Fifth Epoch, who can say for sure?

… …

"Here, your sweet iced tea and Dixie pie." When Roland returned home after purchasing the ingredients, it was almost noon.

He casually handed Mr. Fool's Holy Communion to the other party, who took it while helping to carry the other things in Roland's hands.

The group moved the things to the kitchen together, and Klein began to check the ingredients that Roland bought. In addition to the usual rice, flour, grain, oil, vegetables, and meat, there were also many uncommon ingredients and various seasonings. Klein didn't even recognize some of them.

"Where did you buy these things? This is too complete…" Klein was a little speechless. It wasn't like he didn't go to the trade market, but he had never seen many of the things that Roland bought.

"That's a long story. For example, this fruit is a specialty of Generosity City. It is said to be very useful for treating baldness. I specially asked Mr. Door to open a door and ran over there to buy it. Your brother is coming over to visit in two days, you can give it to him to treat his premature baldness."

Roland picked up a fruit that looked a little strange and stuffed it into Klein's arms, and then introduced the other things, which were basically specialties from various places.

Without exception, one first one hair one inside one content one in one one look!

Klein's mouth twitched, and he said, "So, in order to purchase these, you specially used the Time Gem to summon Mr. Door and used his ability to travel."

"That's right!" Roland nodded, taking it for granted, and said: "Otherwise, how can I purchase the most authentic and genuine ingredients? Don't mention it, I haven't actually eaten many of the things here, so I can just study some new dishes."

What else could Klein say? He could only say that in the face of food, Roland's motivation was really strong.

"Okay, let's make lunch first! What dishes do you want to eat for lunch? I rarely have the interest, so I'll show you my skills." Roland washed his hands and looked at the other two people in the kitchen.

As soon as this was said, the two people in the kitchen were a little moved. Medici naturally wanted to taste the dishes from the Sun God's hometown, while Klein said that he wanted to eat Sichuan cuisine.

"After all, since coming to this era, everything else is fine, but I really haven't eaten many spicy dishes…" Klein touched his nose, a little embarrassed.

"I hope someone remembers his promise!" Medici crossed his arms, his tone arrogant.

"Like that, let me think…" Roland pinched his chin and thought for a few seconds before deciding: "Then let's eat spicy Russian food for lunch."

Roland then busied himself in the kitchen, while Medici and Klein helped out. After a table of dishes was made, the three of them sat around the table to eat. After eating halfway, Medici suddenly tilted his head and looked in a certain direction.

"Huh?" Roland also raised his head, feeling something.

Although Klein didn't react as quickly as them, he also noticed something was wrong. After raising his head, he saw the colors around him distorting, and then a figure appeared, staggering twice before standing firm.

"Mr. Azik, what's wrong?"

It turned out that the person who came was Azik, whom they hadn't seen for a long time. However, compared to the last time they met, Azik at this moment looked a little embarrassed, with multiple wounds on his body.
