Chapter 739: Opinion

~10 min read 1,909 words

After summoning the messenger to send out that letter, Lu Mi sat at the desk, staring at the dark curtains infiltrated by the crimson moonlight, waiting patiently for "Magician" lady to arrive.

I don't know how long it took, in the dark room, dots of brilliant starlight emerged, outlining the figure of "Magician."

She had changed into a thick cotton dress of brown, yellow, and white.

"Good evening, 'Magician' lady." Lu Mi looked around and said, "There is an important matter."

"Magician" understood what he meant and immediately let the surrounding darkness condense into illusory glass, bending and curling up, isolating the infiltration of crimson moonlight and outside sounds.

"What important matter?" After doing the secret-keeping work, "Magician" lady asked.

Lu Mi grabbed a group of scorching white flames to act as a chandelier, was silent for a few seconds, and said:

"I have confirmed the origin of the lizard-like little elf."

"Not from an evil god outside the barrier?" "Magician" lady revealed a thoughtful expression.

The corners of Lu Mi's mouth curled up bit by bit:

"It can be considered an evil god, but not from outside the barrier."

"Magician" frowned and said:

"Tell me specifically."

Lu Mi said in a low voice, starting from his contract with the "Penitent" Bainfer and obtaining the corresponding negative effects, to seeing the statue of the "True Creator" and a lizard-like little elf in a secret church of the "Aurora Society," as well as the illusory scene suspected to be the Kingdom of God.

"Magician" lady did not interrupt him, listened to this matter attentively, and then sighed for a long time:

"Actually, I suspected at the time that the lizard-like little elf was related to Him, but whether it was the mythical creature form of the 'Spectator' pathway or the mythical creature form of the 'Hanged Man' pathway, they were clearly different from that kind of little elf, and nothing similar had appeared five or six years ago. In addition, the two who were good at decryption and dream interpretation were also more inclined to believe that the little elf came from an evil god outside the barrier. These led me to finally abandon this guess.

"Now it seems that the disaster in Kordu Village, that person started participating very early.

"This is complete, right? Such a major event that lasted for a long time and involved members of the Curly-Haired Baboons Research Society, how could He, who has been listening and watching, not notice, how could He not take the opportunity to do something?"

"What exactly does He want to do?" Lu Mi's expression twisted imperceptibly.

"Magician" stared at Lu Mi for a few seconds, sighed, and said:

"I can only confirm one of the purposes, and that is to create a Beyonder who can digest the 'Hunter' pathway quickly and advance rapidly.

"Think about it, from the time you became a 'Hunter' until now, it has only been more than half a year, and you are already a Sequence 5 Beyonder, and the 'Reaper' potion has also been digested significantly. Maybe in another two or three months, you can consider pushing open the door of divinity, advance to Sequence 4, and become a demigod.

"On this 'journey,' whether it is the false Angel rank brought by sealing Termiboros, the Fate pathway gift powers obtained thereby, or the various tempering and digestion opportunities filled with the scent of arrangement, all have made important contributions to your growth."

"He wants a 'Red Priest,' and pushes the 'Red Priest' to fight the 'Primordial Witch' to the death.

"I was still worried before whether you would improve too smoothly, but now it seems that all the gifts of fate have been marked with a price in the dark, and the deposit has already been paid."

Under the illumination of the scorching white firelight, Lu Mi said in a hoarse voice:

"I would rather still be an ordinary person."

"Magician" lady shook her head with a complex smile:

"Approaching the end of the world, with Aurora's background and state, even if the disaster didn't happen in Kordu Village this time, it would inevitably be encountered next time, or the time after next. Have you forgotten your helplessness and pain as an ordinary person in that disaster?"

Lu Mi clenched his hands unconsciously, lowered his head slightly, and said:

"I, I just don't want to gain power in this way."

"Magician" lady didn't continue this topic and said instead:

"He must have other purposes, for example, a humanoid sealed item like you, no matter where you go, can effectively aggregate evil god Gifted to the surroundings, exposing their plots in advance, allowing us more time to deal with them."

Lu Mi remained silent and did not respond to this matter.

"Magician" lady looked at him and asked with a clear sigh:

"What do you want to do next?"

Lu Mi's body trembled slightly, as if he couldn't suppress the emotions in his heart.

He gritted his teeth and said:

"I want to swing my fist at Him!"

After saying this, Lu Mi's eyes were dyed with a color like blood and fire.

Frankly speaking, he had almost never had a firm idea of taking revenge on a deity before. His original plan was to kill the core members of the "April Fool's Day" and the Sanson family of the "Sinner" organization, then strive to become an angel, extract most of Termiboros's power, and then release this false fate angel and kill him.

He knew that the source of the Kordu Village disaster was actually the existence named Fate, but because of the huge gap between the two sides and the natural fear of deities, he only cursed occasionally, said a few harsh words, and did not really put the other party on his revenge list.

And now, he wanted all those damn deities to fall from the Kingdom of Heaven, just like meteors streaking across the night sky!

"Magician" lady looked at Lu Mi and asked seriously:

"Do you know what that sentence you just said represents?"

"I know." Lu Mi nodded slowly, "I waited a day to find you, just to ask myself seriously."

Asking again and again, asking when angry, asking when sad, asking again when slightly calmer.

"Magician" lady looked at him, and the pity that was familiar appeared in her eyes again.

This time, Lu Mi clearly knew what she was pitying:

A human who wants to swing a fist at a deity.

Lu Mi looked back at this holder of the Great Arcana card without letting his gaze retreat in the slightest.

After a while, "Magician" nodded lightly:

"You told me your goal, is it because you hope I can provide effective opinions for this idea of yours, making it have a little bit of feasibility?

"Hmm, my advice is, before Mr. 'Fool' initially wakes up, endure the impulse, strive to improve yourself, only by becoming a demigod, and waiting for Mr. 'Fool' to initially wake up, will you have a chance to sit at that card table, of course, in the form of a card or a chip, don't be frustrated, you are like this, I am like this, and other demigods are like this, at critical moments, our will and our choices can also play an important role, we can also use card players."

Lu Mi asked in a dull voice:

"Will Mr. 'Fool' help me?"

"Magician" lady nodded solemnly:

"Yes."

Her eyes became brighter and brighter unconsciously:

"Mr. 'Fool' will protect us.

"Each of us is willing to sacrifice for this world, but we cannot be sacrificed."

Lu Mi suddenly exhaled, and his whole body seemed to lose strength, so much so that he was a little unstable when standing, and his body swayed slightly.

He had been suppressing, trying his best to suppress, until now.

"Magician" lady looked at him and thought for a while:

"I must remind you of one point, your idea, that person should already know, because you showed abnormality in front of His statue.

"I am not criticizing you, just stating a fact. In that situation, even 'Clowns' and 'Spectators' would find it difficult to control their emotions and expressions, let alone you are just a 'Penitent'."

"I know..." Lu Mi responded with difficulty.

Before "Magician" lady pierced it, he actually held a certain fluke.

"Magician" smiled and said:

"This is also a good thing. You are still alive until now, which shows that you still have a role for Him, still have the value of being used, and have not yet repaid all the gifts of fate. As long as you don't give up on yourself, don't participate in actions that can destroy His important arrangements, He will ignore your hatred, and even continue to let you encounter some things, get some things, until you ascend to the stage He has scheduled.

"This is very helpless, but the fact is like this. In the eyes of such an existence, the current you is just a speck of dust, and He can make you return to dust at any time, not worrying about your thoughts at all."

After a long silence, Lu Mi asked in a slightly hoarse voice:

"Your meaning is, before Mr. 'Fool' initially wakes up, let me make full use of that person's arrangements?"

"Magician" nodded lightly:

"Taking things from enemies to strengthen yourself is also a way of revenge.

"Of course, this requires you to be more cautious and restrained. I said just now, all gifts of fate will be marked with a price in the dark, you have to weigh whether you are willing and able to pay the corresponding price in the future."

Lu Mi lowered his head and looked at the floor illuminated by the scorching white light for a while:

"Okay."

He asked instead:

"When will Mr. 'Fool' initially wake up?"

"No one knows." "Magician" lady revealed a smile, "But don't be frustrated by this answer, I foresee that we Tarot card holders will play a very important role in this matter, let's work hard for this together."

"How to work hard?" Lu Mi pursued.

"Magician" lady deliberated:

"Do yourself well first, then wait patiently for the arrival of the opportunity."

Opportunity? Lu Mi couldn't imagine how he and other minor Arcana cards could have a connection with the matter of waking up Mr. "Fool," so he had to ask cautiously:

"Lady, was 'Penitent' specially placed in the messenger list by you?"

Without the negative influence brought by Bainfer, he would have no chance to see the lizard-like little elf in the secret church of the "True Creator."

"Yes, and no." "Magician" lady answered, "I know he has a certain relationship with that person, thinking that our cooperation with the 'Aurora Society' is very fragile, you are sent to be an undercover agent, not really joining, maybe you will encounter some problems in the future, and he has a probability of bringing new possibilities, so I put him in the messenger list, seeing if fate would let you choose him, didn't expect, this actually uncovered a very important mystery."

Lu Mi had long been accustomed to "Magician" lady making this kind of answer with a very divine stick temperament, and filtered the other party's opinions just now quickly.

He said in a deep voice:

"Lady, I want to explore Mr. 'Hanged Man''s 'Blue Avenger' ship recently."
