Emlyn was stunned for a moment, instantly thinking of the Rose School of Thought and those guys from the Devil families. He suddenly felt that Leyton's words made a lot of sense and subconsciously wanted to nod in praise of the Earth Mother.
After a pause, he suppressed the urge in his heart and then asked aloud:
"Is this why almost all True Gods and Evil Gods are hostile to Primordial Moon and Mother Tree of Desire?"
"Because of their existence, once one steps onto the Prisoner or Criminal Pathway, it's difficult to maintain oneself and one will gradually become depraved, indulging in desires, unless one has the Earth Mother's protection like us?"
Leyton nodded with little expression, then said, "Not just them, and not just these four Pathways."
Emlyn, who had reacted after a moment of blankness, pursued the question, "What else?"
At the lowest end of the mottled long table, Klein manipulated his small account, The World, and lightly coughed, saying:
"Do not probe into hidden things that should not be known. Once certain hidden dangers are triggered, you won't even have the chance to seek help from Mr. Fool"
"No chance to even ask for help?" The World meant that once certain hidden things were understood, they would be silently corrupted or even die the moment they knew, and the victim themselves wouldn't even be able to react.
Justice Audrey interpreted the warning from The World Gehrman Sparrow in her heart and decided to give herself a psychological cue as soon as the gathering ended, sealing away this part of the content, no longer thinking or probing.
Collecting her thoughts, she looked at Leyton in front of her and still asked curiously:
"Mr. Tower, besides the four Pathways just mentioned, what other Pathways have problems? Hmm, this should be content that can be discussed, right?"
Leyton smiled and nodded in response, "Lawyer and Arbiter."
"...Lawyer?" Hermit Cattleya was slightly stunned for a moment and asked with some confusion:
"Beyonder of these two Pathways don't seem to exhibit overly dangerous characteristics. They are even less dangerous than the Moon and Mother Pathways."
After a pause, she added hesitantly, "Is it because there are some special circumstances with these two Pathways?"
The World Gehrman Sparrow slightly shook his head and said in a low voice:
"No, it's just because the one at the pinnacle of these two Pathways hasn't exerted influence like Primordial Moon and Mother Tree of Desire, or the influence is very small and difficult to detect. He is as quiet as if he has disappeared."
Leyton smiled and interjected, "He hasn't disappeared. He's just quietly acting as a Genie."
Genie? The Genie in the wishing lamp? He is an Outer Deity sealed on Earth? Then he must have infiltrated Earth a long time ago, then was discovered by the Celestial Worthy at that time, and sealed away?
No wonder this Outer God is so quiet and has no sense of presence. It's a bit miserable... Hmm, if I want to deal with Amon, perhaps I can cooperate with him. Supporting me to become Lord of the Mysteries is also a way to keep the Celestial Worthy's coffin sealed.
As thoughts floated through Klein's mind, his spiritual intuition was touched. Although it wasn't very clear, it seemed to indicate that contact with the Genie would yield something.
After a brief silence, everyone tacitly stopped discussing the topic. Although they were all curious about the hidden truth, they all remembered Mr. Fool's reminder.
"Cough cough~" Moon Emlyn lightly coughed twice. After once again attracting everyone's attention, he said:
"Everyone, I have another question. I have already obtained the names of the High-Sequence Beyonder characteristics for the Planter and Moon Pathways, but there are two Sequences that I find confusing."
"Sequence 1 of the Moon Pathway is called Beauty Goddess, and Sequence 2 of the Planter Pathway is called Desolate Matriarch. They both seem to have a certain gender orientation. Why is that?"
Leyton raised an eyebrow, suppressing a smile, and said:
"Have you never thought about why the Sanguine never have princes, only queens? Why, aside from a few Beyonder of the Warrior Pathway, almost all high-ranking members of the Church of the Earth Mother are female?"
Emlyn's face was a bit pale, his lips moved, but he didn't speak... This, this must be a test for me, a test...
Noticing Emlyn's expression, Leyton casually comforted him, saying:
"Don't worry, the Sanguine's characteristics have always been very tense. You are unlikely to become an Angel. Even if there's a chance, you can only stay at the Life-Giver stage."
"...I understand."
After two seconds of silence, Emlyn nodded faintly in response... Is this really comforting me? Why do I not feel comforted?
As he pondered, he saw Magician Fors looking somewhat nervously at Mr. Fool at the top, and she raised her hand and said:
"Mr. Fool, the Abraham Family has some matters they wish to seek your help with. For this, they have entrusted me to ask for your opinion. Are you willing to spend some time listening to their prayers?"
"Included with this letter are the detailed information for two Sealed Artifacts of Grade 0, namely the Staff of Stars and the Scroll of God, both evolved from the characteristics of a Planeswalker..."
Magician Fors described in detail the Beyonder abilities and negative effects of the Staff of Stars and the Scroll of God. Finally, she asked nervously:
"Mr. Fool, what are your thoughts on these two Sealed Artifacts?"
What are my thoughts? I can only say, as expected of a former Angel family. Even if they have long declined, they can casually produce two Grade 0 Sealed Artifacts. Even the True God Churches wouldn't have too many such items... As thoughts drifted, Klein leaned back slightly and said leisurely:
"Let them pay one wish, the wish of the entire Abraham Family. The remaining reward will be paid by Mr. Door"
"As for those two Sealed Artifacts, let them hand them over to you to manage for a period of time."
"Ah? Me?" Fors was stunned for a moment, then said somewhat at a loss, "But I don't have the ability to control a Grade 0 Sealed Artifact."
Those are Grade 0 Sealed Artifacts, and two of them. If even a slight accident occurs, I might be killed by the negative effects... Hmm, and that's the best-case scenario. If the problem is more severe, or if the seal fails, the entire city might disappear overnight, thrown into the seabed, a volcano, or even the Abyss.
Fors kept muttering to herself, but she didn't dare to say it out loud.
"The World will come find you." Klein simply explained, then said no more.
Magician Fors pursed her lips and nodded with some confusion: "Okay, I will relay the message to my teacher."
As Magician Fors's topic came to an end, the Tarot Club once again fell silent, until Sun raised the issue of the City of Silver's development in the outside world, and then everyone began to discuss it animatedly again.
A few minutes later, today's Tarot Club came to an end. As everyone stood up and bowed, streaks of crimson light instantly rose, engulfing their figures.
Klein surveyed the suddenly emptier palace, made his materialized The World disappear, then looked at Azik on the left side of the mottled long table and asked:
"Mr. Azik, do you have any wishes you'd like to fulfill?"
"Wish..." Azik murmured, seemingly pondering what Klein could do and what wish he truly needed.
After a moment of silence, he gently nodded: "I hope to see the relatives of my past identities again, even if they are just projections from history."
Klein nodded and said softly:
"I understand. I need some medium. It doesn't have to be a physical object, as long as you've seen it, touched it, and remember what it looked like."
Then, with his help, Azik materialized the objects that would serve as mediums.
It was a knight's straight sword carved from wood, well-preserved. From its color alone, one could tell it had existed for a long time, as if its former owner cherished it greatly.
Besides the wooden sword, there was also a classical music box and a somewhat old wooden comb.
Looking at the materialized objects before him, Azik smiled, a little lost in thought, and said:
"They are the things I remember most deeply. That wooden sword was carved by my own hands for my first child. He loved it very much, practicing swordsmanship with it every day, challenging me with it."
"That music box was a birthday gift I gave to one of my daughters. It was her most cherished gift, but that was eight hundred years ago. Too much time has passed, and many memories have become blurred. Only this music box remains clear, and that wooden comb..."
Azik's voice gradually deepened, tinged with a nasal tone.
Klein and Leyton listened quietly from the side. Not until Azik finished his narration did Klein take the items, and through the mystical connection between the objects and their owners, he tried again and again to pull projections from the fissures of history.
Too much time had passed, and he had practically no connection with the owners of these items, making it difficult to pull historical projections.
After more than a dozen attempts, he finally succeeded once.
He pulled out a little girl wearing a white long dress with lace trim from the fissures of history. She looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, with soft features, and her facial contours bore some resemblance to Mr. Azik's.
The moment this Historical Projection was pulled out, Klein once again received feedback from fulfilling someone else's wish, and this time the feedback was very strong, even stronger than the combined feedback he received when he last saw the Seven Lights.
Indeed, the feedback from helping others fulfill wishes is not only related to the difficulty of the wish but also to the intensity of one's own desire.
Uh, looking at it this way, the Seven Lights' desire to see me wasn't that strong. Well, they always stay in the Spirit World, so as long as I enter the Spirit World, there's always a chance to see them, and I've already interacted with two of them before.
