"Mr. Fool, Mr. Hanged Man, and Mr. Chariot, I have three questions I would like to ask. If you believe the answers are of great value, tell me what you want, and I will try my best to find it later."
Hearing Justice Audrey's words, Klein naturally nodded slightly, and at the same time changed to a more relaxed posture to make himself sit more comfortably.
The Hanged Man Alger then said, "No problem."
"If it's something I know, I don't mind answering," Lin Ruo also said softly afterward, appearing to have recovered from his previous gaffe.
Audrey paused for a few seconds, and then asked, "The first question, what exactly does 'acting' mean? Uh…" As she spoke, Audrey suddenly stopped and looked at Lin Ruo uncertainly, saying, "Mr. Chariot, do you know about the acting method?"
Obviously, Audrey had overlooked this question just now.
This is not surprising. Even though Audrey gradually grew into one of the Tarot Club's intellectual pillars later on, she was still quite naive at this moment, having only just become a Spectator for less than a week, so it was inevitable that she would have oversights in her considerations.
"If you're referring to the acting method of digesting potions through 'acting,' then I think I know about it," Lin Ruo said with a gentle smile.
Since he wanted to embody the persona of a knowledgeable person, it was naturally impossible for Lin Ruo to appear ignorant.
As expected, he's not that simple… He knows the acting method… Could he be a member of the Church or some secret organization…? Alger didn't speak, but his mind had already begun its journey of speculation.
Audrey also realized that although Mr. Chariot was about the same age as her, he was likely not a newcomer to the mystical world like her.
After all, a normal newcomer to the mystical world would not know about the existence of the acting method.
"Since you also know about the acting method, Mr. Chariot, then I'll continue asking," Audrey said, not thinking too much about it. "It's like this, I've found that the residual will within the potion has very little influence on me. Is this because I've been acting as a Spectator all this time?"
Hearing her question, although he already had the answer in his heart, Lin Ruo still maintained his smile, with absolutely no intention of answering.
Of course, he wouldn't answer Justice's question. After all, they were currently before The Fool, and he, on the surface, had just realized Mr. Fool's "terrifying power." Under this premise, a truly knowledgeable person would not try to steal Mr. Fool's thunder by showing off their knowledge.
Unless he was certain that Mr. Fool would not answer this question, showing off knowledge at this time would only be a manifestation of foolishness.
This was also reflected in Alger. As a seasoned veteran, Alger definitely understood what acting meant. He didn't speak, but instead turned his gaze to The Fool, seemingly waiting for His answer as well.
Sitting at the head of the bronze table, Klein looked at the Tarot Club members, each eagerly awaiting his answer, and was momentarily speechless.
However, he then chuckled and explained to Justice Audrey what acting meant, using the same analogy from the original work about entering the castle.
This appropriate analogy naturally allowed Justice Audrey to fully understand what acting meant, and also made the latter happily express her gratitude to Mr. Fool, and ask how she should pay for the reward for answering this question.
To this, Klein naturally smiled indifferently and said:
"More of Roselle's diaries, or…"
He paused here. Unlike in the original work, now that Lin Ruo was by his side and he didn't have to worry about subsequent potion formulas, and having already obtained the "Clown" potion formula and the "Magician" formula, Klein naturally didn't consider asking Justice Audrey for information about the Seer sequence.
What he thought of first was the murmurs he had heard before about "Hornacis," and the Antigonus family's notebook…
So, in the end, he said, "Or any information about the Antigonus family, even if it's something I already know."
It can only be said that fate sometimes leads to the same conclusion through different paths. Although their ideas were different, the question Klein asked was not much different from the original.
Fate, ah, truly wonderful… Lin Ruo, who witnessed this scene, suddenly felt some emotion in his heart. As a psychic who was good at guiding the fate of others, but who had also been toyed with by fate and died, Lin Ruo's feelings about fate and change could be said to be very profound.
Although I never really thought that fate was immutable…
Thinking this, Lin Ruo smiled. After the Hanged Man next to him took the initiative to briefly introduce that the Antigonus family was an ancient family that could be traced back to before the Second Epoch, and was related to the second Blasphemy Slate, and after Justice Audrey asked him to popularize the time when the two Blasphemy Slates appeared, and that Emperor Roselle had seen the second Blasphemy Slate, he raised his hand and asked softly, before the Hanged Man could continue his explanation:
"Do you mind if I introduce some knowledge about the second Blasphemy Slate here?"
The main target of his question was naturally the Hanged Man, who was currently talking about the situation of the Antigonus family.
The second Blasphemy Slate… What does he know?
The Hanged Man's pupils shrank, but then he said in a steady voice, "Of course, I don't mind."
Justice Audrey also looked at Lin Ruo with anticipation at this moment. As a novice Beyonder who was very interested in mysticism, she obviously had a great interest in these secrets.
In fact, not to mention him, even The Fool Klein couldn't help but look at Lin Ruo at this moment. If it weren't for the gray fog blocking him, Justice Audrey would probably have seen some clues.
He actually knows the whereabouts of the second Blasphemy Slate… What exactly is he?
Alger's heart had already surged with stormy waves, and one guess after another popped out of his mind.
How amazing, Mr. Chariot seems to know a lot of things… Justice Audrey's thoughts were much simpler. While surprised by Lin Ruo's erudition, she took the initiative to ask, "Mr. Chariot, what is a King of Angels? Also, that ancient organization you mentioned… Can you tell me the name of that ancient organization?"
