On Monday, the Tarot will be held.
Klein, who has returned to Beckland, was soon made one big by the expenses needed to play a rich man.
According to the list reported by the housekeeper, in addition to the house with an annual rent of hundreds of pounds, maintaining the status of a rich man also requires a personal male servant, two first-class maids in the bedroom, two second-class maids in the living room, two second-class maids in the reception of guests, one storage room maids, one kitchen maids, two washing maids, and two rough male servants.
In addition to these, there is also a chef, two gardeners, two coachman, or a coachman, and a coachman assistant. If necessary, you can add a waiter, a worker, a family nurse, and a chef assistant.
There are also carriages, and you must have two, one four-wheeled sedan, about 300 pounds, one two-wheeled, roughly 100 pounds...
In addition, there are wine cellars, manors, hunting grounds that reflect their identity, regular dances, and even horses and necessary pets. The huge expenses made even Klein, who was holding a large amount of more than 3,500 pounds, feel numb.
He has decided to hire Mr. Walter as the housekeeper, and all expenses are on the verge of on the string.
It is difficult to maintain the wealthy character of "Daune Dance", not to mention the reward of Miss Messenger's 10,000 gold coins.
Therefore, he even looked forward to the arrival of Tarot, so he temporarily escaped from reality, and quickly sold the magical item "Lucky Balance" and other items that were no longer of great help to supplement the household use.
It would be great if he could get the 42,000 pound bounty from "Blood General"... Klein sighed, but unfortunately, "German Sparrow" made Baiam's move so horrible that he showed his face on the sea and in front of "Aquaman".
Even if you find an irrelevant passerby to receive the reward, it will also attract the attention of the military, Baiyam and the Storm Church.
German Sparrow's bounty is higher than Seniore!
Therefore, no matter how reluctant Klein had no choice but to give up the forty-two thousand pounds.
Three o'clock in the afternoon.
Above the gray fog, inside the palace with a towering dome.
"Follower" Klein glanced at the "sun" pulled in in advance and the "world" that was pre-existing, and pinched the point to spread his spirituality, touching the crimson stars representing "justice", "hanging man", "magic", "moon" and "hidden".
Lights rose up, and relatively blurred figures appeared on both sides of the bronze table.
"Justice" Audrey, who had just returned to the castle from the forest farm, has changed into a skirt, with lace on the cuffs layered with round pearls pressed.
She stood up lightly and skillfully, lifted her skirt and bowed:
"Good afternoon, Mr. 'Fool'~"
Klein's mood improved a lot, nodded with a smile, and responded to the other party.
At the same time, he couldn't help but sigh:
"A new rich man is so expensive. How much does a noble like Miss Justice have to be usually expensive..."
At the same time, he noticed that the "Hidden" Ms. "The Hermit" had the intention to speak, and guessed that the other party might have recovered some of the Russell diaries that Bernard had once owned.
He cast a look over, and Gadriya immediately showed a yellow-brown diary, watching it fall into the hands of Mr. "Follower" in a posture of traveling through the spiritual world.
Klein looked down casually, and was slightly surprised to find that there was no corresponding date at the beginning of this diary.
"It was really beyond my expectations. The Quaternary history revealed by Mr. Door is becoming more and more interesting. This unlucky guy who was trapped in the storm and lost in the depths of the darkness told me that the Black Emperor had died once and was resurrected."
"And even if all nine tombs are destroyed, as long as the order established by the Black Emperor has remained in a certain way, He can strangely resurrection and return. Only when the new Black Emperor is born can He be completely destroyed and will never appear again."
"… ‘uniqueness’ is separated from the owner, conceptually abstracted, and the ‘black emperor’, which combines ‘uniqueness’, reappears in ‘astral realm’, and the extraordinary characteristics of the three sequences 1 automatically return to their emperor's hands. This is an order that no other true god can reverse and stop."
"In this way, the Blood Emperor and the Night Emperor, who are both the "Prince of Slayer" in this path are quite embarrassing, and they may fall out of their position in an instant and retreat to the sequence 2. Mr. Gate said that at that time, the "Lord of the Storm" and the "Goddess of the Night" chose the "Night Emperor" to help him turn to a similar extraordinary path, that is, the "Judge" path, and the "Turdot-Terentsor United Empire" was thus divided."
"And the 'blood emperor' Alista Tuduo, who was forced into a desperate situation, made a crazy decision, which was to turn to an extraordinary path that was not similar and to be promoted to the true god at the cost of losing his mind and becoming a madman."
"I have to say that this decision is full of irrationality and there is almost no possibility of realization, but Mr. ‘Gate’ told me that Yalista Tudor finally succeeded, and the craziest true god was born!"
Crazy... Going to the non-adjacent path... Potions and uniqueness... A flash of lightning suddenly struck Klein's mind.
He suddenly thought that just yesterday, he went to the mysterious Quaternary ruins with the evil spirits with Sharon in the posture of a resentful soul!
There were originally three backrest chairs, each with a lifeless human figure on them...
The extraordinary people who were suspected to be at the top of the three "hunters" path died there at the same time, and there may be Medic with "uniqueness", so that extraordinary people are constantly attracted, including the heirs of the Pound family and the "Red Priest" card.
So who did this terrifying ceremony in that mysterious ruin?
Sacrifice the three angels of the first sequence, seeking the throne of the gods?
Combined with this page of diary, the vague figure in Klein's mind suddenly became clear. There is no doubt that the consul Alistar Tudor should have been the "Black Emperor" sequence one, of course, it is not adjacent to the "Red Priest"!
Under the threat of death, the consul chose the first sequence of the way to hunt three "hunters" and was promoted to the true god "Red Priest"! And he succeeded and became the crazy true god!
The amount of information is so large... It is worthy of being a diary collected by Bernardé... Wait, finally crazy? Crazy...
Could it be... no...Russel's situation at that time was very similar to that of the "Blood Emperor" Alista Tudor. The original path had been cut off and there were people or objects in the adjacent path, so it was not so easy to climb... Could it be that under tremendous pressure, he made the same irrational decision as the "Blood Emperor" and tried to turn to the non-adjacent path?
In this way, his madness in his later years really lost his mind, rather than being splashed with dirty water. No wonder Bernady Gustav betrayed him, hated him, and tried to find the truth...
Haha, I really underestimated this fellow villager and "senior". I always thought he was entertaining himself in Napoleon and Caesar, and it turned out to be preparing for the "Black Emperor"... No, I have read a few pages of his diary at that time. He has clear thinking and normal emotions, and can even communicate in-depth with a certain noble lady, a certain noble lady...
Well, he might not have made the final decision at that time, but was he consciously leaving a way out?
The Civil Code is most likely not something Rossell intended to do. As a usurper, promulgation of new laws is an inevitable choice. Among the objects for reference, the Civil Code is relatively most in line with the social situation and historical process...
The subsequent act of becoming emperor should be something that Bernard felt incomprehensible and a little unacceptable... As Rossell's favorite child, she might have noticed a certain abnormality before her father became emperor... Klein couldn't help but think of it, as if he saw the heavy history hidden in the depths of the fog turning a page full of blood and rust in front of him.
This made him even more curious about the fuse of Rossell's ultimate madness.
519
The new god of death church was busy dealing with the two quiet cities, and the meeting was over soon, and everyone was busy.
Under their propaganda, there are people from the Southern Continent who cannot survive. The Southern Continent who are fishing in troubled waters flock to these three cities, bringing huge challenges to urban security. Fortunately, for those who are good at driving multiple undead creatures, managing so many people is not difficult.
You never know whether the person coming towards you is good or bad, just as it is difficult for you to tell whether the police officers and church members who are arresting prisoners are living or dead.
"I will not consider relocating my children in the North Mainland for the time being, because there is not enough space for them in the South Mainland, and the money in my hands can only support a part of the people, otherwise the people in charge will not need to work in multiple jobs to earn funds."
“But I will be ready at any time.”
"What is Serah's attitude? If He himself has reached a balance of two roles, how will He be prepared to treat the crazy subordinates of the indulge in the terrorists?"
After the simple cooperation meeting with the Church of Death, Richard chased out and kept asking.
Edward replied reluctantly: "Let it go."
"After indulging in a long time, some people will always forget that they may not be so indulgent, and the same is true after being restrained for a long time."
"For them who have become accustomed to it for a long time, even if the correct method is placed in front of them, they may not be able to do it."
Richard breathed a little relieved: "It seems that He is willing to publish this experiment to everyone."
"In fact, you are the first prisoner to try to achieve balance. It is not advisable to be restrained without erupting, and it is also not advisable to be indulged without suppressing. The method used by Sera is to refer to the simple and crude version completed afterwards, but it is enough."
A smile appeared on the corner of the mouth of the Angel of Temperance: "If He is willing to set shackles for the indulgence, I will give it help."
Edward sneered:
"Sealco doesn't need to change the performance method within the school to win you. Your influence in the Temperor is worse than Renette Tinicol. If you want to participate, you'd better do it in a more concealed way."
"They really thought that the former leader of the rebel army was afraid of being beaten, so they would become angels of moderation. They would also feel that the orphans and elderly people you raised were your anchors."
"Of course, you're just an angel, and they don't have to attack your anchor at all."
The anchor owned by the Angel of Temperance is an unknown number. In the church's view, Richard Ernst has at least one million anchors in the Northern Continent, including charity hospitals, workhouses and orphanages, His subordinates and those who have been saved by Him. These can be counted by the number of people rescued by Ernst Foundation, and the number of people will fluctuate with the amount of funding received every year. It is easier to estimate, but at least it is worth one or two large cities, while the anchor in the Southern Continent is completely unknown.
Even the rebels would occasionally read a few words of restraint angels. After all, they were their former leaders and had the most brilliant record.
As an angel, there are quite a lot of such numbers.
However, Edward and Richard knew that controlling the stability of the angel is not based on anchors, but on their own beliefs.
"You have told me that Bethel was exiled to a distant place for thousands of years. There are no believers in the world with the exception of the Abraham family. So according to our logic, He should have gone crazy or surrendered to the enemy."
"Since Mr. Door can fight madness and pollution with his will and beliefs, I may not be able to do it."
It is just to reduce some unnecessary emotions and purify one's own beliefs and wishes.
"I am a South Mainland native who is uneducated, a short-sighted and ungrateful wild wolf. Without bait and meat feeding, I will want to bite the meat of the person I feed. Isn't this normal thing?"
Richard joked about himself disapprovingly, and then began to plan for beads: "I understand, thank you for your reminder. Is there any place I can serve the teacher recently?"
"No."
"What a pity, it's not easy to find a job these days." Richard asked again, "Teacher, where did the lamp you are holding go?"
"I've given it to someone."
Seeing Edward start to be perfunctory, Richard also changed the topic with a wink:
"Is the Pale Emperor really the God of Death coming in person?"
Edward nodded.
Richard looked up at the murals on the high dome and sighed: "Just last year, He and I had arguing about different political views and had business dealing with Him. In a blink of an eye, He was no longer in this world."
"When Xiya was alive, she had racked her brains to deal with the Seven Gods Church. The remaining little effort was spent on recapturing Aldera, which took a full half year. After the God of Death returned, he recaptured the other two cities within a day, leaving the church in the North Continent silent."
"Is this the difference in power? Or is this the difference between man and God?"
"Under such a gap, I even think that humans are just ants, and gods are humans. In the battles from ancient times to the present, no matter how ants bite them to the death, no matter how civilization and technology develop to the point, as long as a person step on it, nothing will be gone."
"Living in such a world is really powerless to make people angry."
After all, this was in the palace of Emperor Bailang. Richard did not say these words too loudly, nor did he let the people around him notice his emotions. After a long silence, He couldn't help asking:
To be continued...
