The Mystery:The Witch and the Scourge

Louise's current situation, how should I put it, should be one of those situations where she starts to play, but suddenly loses control of her game, and naturally ends up being suppressed.

Even if she and Russell come from the same "hometown", even if she is the scroller of "The Fool", even if she is mysterious and seems to know everything, it is undeniable that Louise's current sequence is just "pain"

"Witch", who has not even reached the level of demigod, is no match for "Master of Prophecy" Bernadette.

So, after she finally got her wish and said the "provocative words" she had wanted to say for a long time, the tall image she had painstakingly created was suddenly broken by Bernadette...

"Bring me a cup of tea." A queen-like voice with a commanding tone came from the room.

Louise curled her lips and cursed secretly:

"Since I came to this world, I have always been served by others, and today I have to serve others. What a reincarnation!"

Although Louise has never made tea for others, there is still a difference between being active and passive!

Even so, she did not stop moving her hands at all, skillfully boiling water and making tea.

As Klein saw through Arrodes, Louise and Bernadette did not leave the small island near Bansi.

However, this island was deserted and there was no place to stay, so Bernadette took out a miniature toy house, placed it in the woods, and quickly expanded into what it is now, a room completely large enough for two people to rest.

And it can avoid most detection methods.

The boiling sound of "snoring" kept sounding, and Louise held the teacup, pushed the door open and walked into the room.

Bernadette was sitting on a wicker chair. She raised her eyes slightly and took the tea cup from Louise without saying a word. After opening it, a wisp of hot steam flew into the air. The tea in the cup was bluish green with a few buds floating in it.

On the water surface, it looks like a fish swimming.

She took a sip gently, and the fragrance lingered between her lips and teeth, leaving her with endless aftertaste.

"The tea you made has the most similar taste to the tea made by Russell." Bernadette put the teacup on the wooden table next to her and commented.

Louise cooperated on the surface and expressed her gratitude for the compliment, but in fact she didn't take it seriously. She didn't have any skills in making tea. She just boiled water and brewed the tea leaves. How could there be anything magical about it?

The reason why Bernadette felt this way was purely due to her own emotions. She just recalled the memories of Russell in her mind.

"Is this kind of tea very popular in my hometown? Aunt Louise." Bernadette suddenly asked.

Hearing this title, Louise couldn't help but feel a tremor in her heart. It wasn't that she was surprised, on the contrary, she was used to it.

Ever since Louise took the initiative to confess some facts, Bernadette would ask indirect questions about the so-called "hometown" from time to time. Whenever she asked a question, she would always deliberately call Louise her aunt, as if

It's like a deliberate reminder.

In this regard, Louise expressed her helplessness. After all, she was stronger than others, so she could only swear secretly in her heart:

"You wait until my sequence is higher than yours!"

Moreover, Bernadette has a great sense of proportion. She will test things step by step and never show excessive toughness. It is as if she is playing a conversation game, gathering the truth she wants from just a few words.

In this case, it would be difficult for Louise. Since she had constructed such a "hometown", she naturally had to contribute to her hometown... Fortunately, she had a ready-made template.

"It's very popular." She answered Bernadette's question, but refused to say another word to avoid making mistakes.

Bernadette did not ask further questions, as if the topic was over, and asked again:

"One thing I'm very curious about is that both you and Russell have been promoted step by step since Sequence Nine, but the promotion speed is a little faster, but why does Mr. Fool you call him have the status of a god?"

Louise didn't change her expression and answered seriously:

"Because, the 'Fool' is a god."

"Only in the process of gradual recovery?" Bernadette then added, with some doubts.

Louise was unmoved and did not answer directly. She just showed a mysterious smile and said sideways:

"There's a difference of hundreds of years between when Russell and I appeared."

Bernadette was thoughtful, that is to say, the "Fool" probably appeared after Russell disappeared, but before meeting Louise, she had never heard of the name "The Fool" ...So, the most likely possibility is that "The Fool" is in the process of gradually recovering as he imagined.

As for why Louise didn't admit this, it was probably to frighten me and prevent me from taking some tough measures against her... Bernadette smiled slightly, her eyes fell on Louise, and she looked at her carefully. After reading it once, he said:

"Roselle finally tried to be promoted to the 'Black Emperor', but failed. Mr. Fool is already a real god. What about you?"

"Dear Aunt Louise, what will you end up becoming?"

This question involves the core proposition that Louise has been accumulating deep in her heart:

"Who am I, where do I come from, and where am I going?"

In order to get the answer to this question, she rebelled against her destiny when she was in Backlund, and finally gained the freedom she wanted. However, her experience after leaving Backlund made her doubt her destiny again.

Simply and easily obtaining a corner of the "City of Disaster" was far beyond Louise's imagination of herself. After that, many times, she did not even dare to think about her deeper self.

But Louise always remembers one thing, which is also the reason for supporting her continued existence:

"I'm just me."

After thinking about it, she suddenly smiled and said with emotion:

"Who can say for sure what will happen in the future!"

Then, she changed the topic again and said:

"However, if I am lucky enough to become a Sequence 0 in the end, then your calling me aunt will not be in vain!"

Hurt each other! Who is afraid of whom?

Sure enough, Bernadette's eyes began to look a little dangerous again.

At this time, Louise seemed to think of something again and said immediately:

"I want to correct you on one fact. Russell's promotion to the 'Black Emperor' did not fail."

Bernadette was stunned for a moment, and then she was successfully led away by Louise and asked subconsciously:

"What do you mean?"

Louise was quite satisfied. She had already seen that ordinary methods would not work against Bernadette. Only this kind of obvious stimulation and teasing would be effective... She smiled lightly and explained. :

"You should also know the characteristics of the 'Black Emperor'. The real purpose of Russell's promotion to the 'Black Emperor' is not just to be promoted to Sequence 0. Unfortunately, he successfully became the 'Black Emperor' in the end, but still failed."

Bernadette frowned slightly, and her face became more thoughtful. After thinking briefly, she hesitated and said:

"Could it be that Russell's temperament changed drastically in his later years not because divinity overcame humanity, but because of other reasons?"

It turns out that she understood it this way... Louise shook her head slightly and denied:

"Of course not..."

Before she finished speaking, Louise was unable to continue speaking, and even had a solemn expression on her face, as did Bernadette sitting opposite her.

Because, they felt the breath of angels.
