Mystery: Lucky

Save some face for her... Klein used the extraordinary ability of "Joker" to hold back his smile and got up and went out.

Loen has abolished slavery. Even servants have human rights and have rest time. They don't need to work 24 hours a day, including personal servants.

However, there are people on night shifts everywhere, and servants are no exception. Klein did not go to the servants' room to find his personal servant, or to find a chef or housekeeper, but found the servant who was on night watch nearby and told him:

"Go and ask someone to send a five-scoop ice cream."

This servant did not seem to come into contact with his master often, and his professional quality was not very high - it should be, otherwise he would not do such a job as night watch.

In short, he asked with a confused look on his face:

"Huh?"

Klein calmly ordered again: "Go and ask someone to send a five-scoop ice cream."

The servant finally reacted, and when he said yes, Klein returned to the room without hesitation.

Emotions are only a matter of a moment. During the time Klein was away, Alice had basically calmed down and even began to feel embarrassed. This was even more so when she heard Klein opening the door.

Watching Klein walk in, Alice blinked her eyes, tears flowing back, and all the traces of crying on her body disappeared. When Klein walked in, he saw Alice who was no different from before she cried.

I have never cried so shamefully... Alice muttered to herself, and asked in a cowardly tone:

"Where's the ice cream?"

"You have to wait a while." Klein replied.

So Alice waited for the ice cream as if nothing had happened. She looked at the pattern on the ceiling, the moonlight outside the window, and the material of the tables and chairs, but she didn't look at Klein.

Klein thought for a moment, picked up a book on the bedside, put it in her hand, and sincerely suggested:

"Usually at this time, we choose to lower our heads to read."

Alice opened her mouth, she wanted to refute but didn't know what to say, so she remembered Klein's words and lowered her head to read the book in her hand.

This is a book introducing classical literature. After reading a few lines, she couldn't help but raise her head and questioned:

"What do you read every day?"

"I'm previewing the new lesson," Klein replied calmly, "You know, as a rich man, I have a lot to learn."

Alice looked at Klein with a sympathetic look, and then hugged the book and stared blankly.

They didn't wait too long, and there was a knock on the door. Klein glanced at Alice, and Alice disappeared tactfully, and threw the book on the chair.

Klein cleared his throat and said, "Come in."

Someone brought in ice cream, and at Klein's request, the cup of ice cream was placed on the bedside table.

When he left, Alice saw him looking at the extra chair in confusion like most people.

When he left, Alice held the ice cream and started eating. In this short time, she had forgotten the unpleasantness just now.

Klein looked at Alice who was eating ice cream with envy, and then sighed heavily. Seeing this, Alice looked at the ice cream in her hand hesitantly, then moved closer, scooped up a spoon and handed it to Klein's mouth.

Looking at the spoon of ice cream and Alice's reluctant eyes, Klein was silent for two seconds, and said expressionlessly:

"Eat quickly.

"Go back after eating. "

"It's inexplicable..." Alice, whose kindness was not rewarded, pouted and sat back to continue eating ice cream.

They didn't talk anymore. After eating the ice cream, Alice went home to sleep, and Klein also fell asleep.

The next day, after waking up, Alice went to the Church of the Night after breakfast and thought about today's plan on the bench in the church.

Well, I should write a letter to Bernadette first, telling her... uh, telling her that the "world", that is, the Black Emperor, needs her help?

Then...

She was about to sort out the next thing, and suddenly, inspiration touched her and she opened her eyes.

A dozen seconds later, Leonard sat next to her, tilted his head slightly and asked her:

"The captain and Ms. Daly are getting married... are you coming?"

Alice turned her head away in surprise.

Leonard's words revealed that he already knew that Klein was not dead. Of course, it is not ruled out that this is just a test, but it doesn't matter. Alice doesn't care much. She is surprised about something else:

"So soon? "

Leonard nodded.

Alice sat up straight and asked, "When? Where?"

Leonard handed over two invitations. Alice opened them and checked. The wedding was scheduled for July 1st in Tingen City. It is worth mentioning that the names of the invitees were not written on the two invitations.

"...I will tell him." Alice put away the invitations and said so.

The atmosphere fell silent again. Leonard's expression did not change much. Alice realized that he had indeed confirmed that Klein was still alive, and couldn't help asking:

"Aren't you going to ask me about his current news?"

"Will you tell me?" Leonard asked back.

Of course not...Okay, I understand.

Alice had the answer in her heart instantly. She didn't ask any more extra questions. After thinking for a while, she asked Leonard:

"Can you let the 'thief' angel who is parasitic on you come out for a while?

"I have something to talk to Him about."

Leonard turned his head to look at her. After a few seconds, Alice vaguely noticed that there was something inexplicable about him. For a moment, she felt that there were two people in front of her.

How strange... She looked at Leonard with a strange look on her face, and realized that Pales should no longer hide himself completely as before, so she said:

"Be careful recently-I might lead Amon to Backlund.

"Stay away from a person named Hazel Macht and those related to her."

"Are you crazy?" This was Leonard's first sentence.

Alice was not sure whether this was what he wanted to say or Pales asked him to say, and she continued regardless:

"In addition, I have something I want to confirm.

"What is the god-making ceremony of the 'wrong' path? Is it stealing someone else's god-making ceremony?"

This time, more than ten seconds passed before Leonard asked her:

"Why do you know this?"

"I want a complete description of the ceremony." Alice avoided answering.

"In someone else's godhood ceremony, I will take his place." Leonard told her.

Alice nodded thoughtfully, and then replied politely:

"In fact, I was just guessing."

Leonard looked at her with a puzzled look, and blurted out: "Guessing?"     Alice spread her hands.

"The 'Destiny' path..." Leonard said with a strange expression, "It really lives up to its reputation."

Alice ignored him, but stood up and said, "I'm leaving, bye."

... Do you want to talk to Him about sending Amon to godhood?

He won't be willing... Anyway, don't tell Him yet, it's still early anyway, I don't have Sequence 2 yet...

Thinking of this, Alice took the two invitations and left the church.

Back home, Alice first decisively wrote a letter to Bernadette. She didn't use a requesting tone, but told her directly that the "world" needed her help.

Next, before telling Klein about the captain's wedding, Alice first observed what Klein was doing.

He was taking a classical literature class... After hearing the content of the class, Alice looked away in horror.

She couldn't help but pat her chest, thankful that she was not born into an aristocratic family - otherwise, it would be the most terrifying nightmare in the world.

Alice decided to tell Klein about this later. She began to think about what she would do next, and then she remembered her plan to attract Amon.

...Write a letter to Amon as well?

Alice nodded and thought about it.

Of course, the letter to Amon couldn't be as casual as the one to Bernadette. At the very least, Alice would never speak to Amon in an imperative tone. The clone didn't matter, but the original body...

Alice shook her head.

First of all, it was not the content that needed to be determined. Alice had not forgotten her tradition of changing the title for Amon every time. She was thinking about what to call Amon this time.

Let me think... He has nothing to do in the "Forsaken Land of God" every day, he just wanders around, and this time I'm here to eat...

Alice's eyes lit up and she picked up the pen.

『

Dear tramp:

It's been a long time since we last met. I wonder how you've been doing recently? Are you exhausted, hungry, or sleepy?

I don't think so, because I didn't feel particularly good at any moment, but I felt particularly regretful when I picked up the pen.

Okay, let's get back to the point. Actually, I want to tell you that I found something in Backlund that you might be interested in - oh, this is a snack.

There is a descendant of the Jacob family in Backlund, currently at Sequence 4, but seems very weak. It claims to have come to Backlund to find a treasure of the Jacob family, but I found that it tricked a little girl into becoming Sequence 9 - it seems that it has the same bad habits as you.

Oh, by the way, its current body is a brown mouse, with mixed fur, it doesn't look pure bloodline, the texture of the fur is not good enough, the taste... uh, I haven't eaten it, can you tell me after you finish eating it? If you plan to eat it.

Its location is...

'

Writing down Flora Jacob's current location, Alice exhaled, signed at the end "a kind person who does not want to reveal his name", and then put down the pen.

Although she hadn't written to Amon for a long time, Alice was not unfamiliar with the process of offering sacrifices to Amon, mainly because Amon had no requirements for this process, and she did it casually most of the time.

Throwing the envelope into the sacrifice channel, Alice looked at the time and found that it was still early for lunch, so she had to continue thinking about what else she could do.

...

"Huh?"

Amon, who hadn't received letters and gifts from Alice for a long time, was a little surprised. He pushed his monocle, took the letter, and took the initiative to browse.

Alice's letter was as irritating as ever. Amon was too lazy to pay attention to this part of the content most of the time. He thought it was interesting, but he knew very well that if he continued the conversation, he might become the interesting one.

However, this letter, which had not been sent for a long time, was of some value. After reading the entire letter, Amon pinched his monocle and whispered with interest:

"Descendants of the Jacob family? Going to Backlund to find the treasure of the Jacob family?

"Tsk..."

He reached out and turned his monocle, which became darker at a certain moment, and after a moment, it became crystal clear again.

On the outskirts of Backlund, a postman riding a bicycle suddenly stopped with a brake, reached out and turned the monocle on his right eye, and the glasses quickly swirled.

After a while, when the monocle was restored and crystal clear, he showed a happy smile, rummaged in his waist bag for a while, and pulled out a newspaper.

"It's there..." he whispered.

...

After Alice rolled around on the bed twice, she remembered her top priority, which was the auxiliary materials for the undigested "Doom Wizard" potion and the clueless "Chaos Walker" potion.

But it was useless, she still had no clue.

It's better to say that the auxiliary materials for the "Chaos Walker" potion are not that difficult to find. As long as you figure out what the mysterious words refer to, it's not difficult to find a prophecy that meets the conditions.

Before Klein woke Alice up, the most difficult part for her was to find a way to take a dream.

After Klein woke Alice up, the most difficult part for her became whether she should find a meaningful prophecy.

Alice sighed heavily and couldn't help thinking of the murals in Ouroboros' room.

As a "fate" path, Alice would not believe that Ouroboros' murals were just murals. She insisted that they should be mixed - that is, some were real events, and some were prophetic pictures.

... In that case, are there murals that are prophecies but not actually realized?

If I steal one of His murals, does it count as having special meaning...

Dangerous thoughts popped up in Alice's mind, but she suppressed them because it was not a good idea - Ouroboros cared about His paintings very much, and she didn't want to offend Ouroboros.

She couldn't beat him.

What? You mean Amon? Forget it, she has offended Amon enough to deserve death...

Alice sighed heavily, and after lying in bed for a few hours, she sat up happily.

Great, lunch time is finally here!

Alice got up happily to eat.

But happiness is temporary. After delaying time with lunch and nap, Alice still had to think about the previous problem.

Should I choose a prophecy at random, or continue to look for prophecies with special meanings...

After thinking for a day, Alice finally decided to decide this matter by tossing a coin.

She threw the coin, watched the coin spinning in the air, and finally covered it in her hand.

Then, she looked down at the coin in her hand. (End of this chapter)
