Chapter 209 An Unsuccessful Tarot Club
Klein scanned the other three people present. Due to Miss Justice's mistake, there was no Russell diary to watch today. In addition, for the first time, someone was absent from the Tarot Club. The emotions of the other three people seemed to be mixed. Not very high.
Miss Justice, who had always been enthusiastic and confident, seemed to have something on her mind at the moment. Miss Magic was taciturn, and Little Sun seemed a little nervous.
This atmosphere is very bad.
Klein thought for a while, tapped his fingers on the table, and after attracting the attention of the three people, he slowly spoke: "If you encounter something difficult to deal with in time in the future, you can also explain the situation in advance, and I will allow your absence."
"Thank you Mr. Fool for your reminder and generosity." Audrey was the first to recover from the uneasy atmosphere.
Since Mr. Hanged Man was unable to attend this week's Tarot meeting, I will assist Mr. Fool in completing this meeting.
Audrey regained her energy, and with a smile on her face, she began to share her recent experiences, especially her accidental entry into the spiritual world.
Of course, she omitted a lot of relevant situations, especially those involving Susie and Mr. Hastur.
But even the incomplete version of the adventure story attracted the attention of everyone present.
Especially the interweaving of dreams and reality, the diversity and complexity of the spiritual world.
"It's a magical encounter, but it's also very dangerous." Klein gave Miss Justice's adventure a not-so-good evaluation in his heart.
The unknown, pursuing the unknown, is often the easiest way to lose oneself.
Most of the adventures in this world are often traps.
If it were him, he would never advance like Miss Justice.
"It's terrible." Forsi felt cold in her heart. She didn't want to encounter such a thing.
She didn't need any adventures, it was best to spend every day safely.
Isn’t the original intention of pursuing extraordinary power just to live a better life?
If you get the primary and secondary relationship wrong, you will lose more than you gain.
"That should be the power left by the spiritual dragon."
Only Derrick, who lives in Silver City, gave Miss Justice good feedback on this adventure.
"You mean I encountered the psychic dragon?"
Audrey was a little excited. It was a spiritual dragon, a mythical creature that was almost extinct.
Moreover, I happen to be in the same audience sequence as the psychic dragon. If I can understand the psychic dragon, it is equivalent to understanding the direction of my future promotion.
"That should only be the part of the power it left behind. It was affected by that power that you fell into a deep sleep and went on a dream journey."
"Then there is no way for me to see the spiritual dragon?"
"Well, it should have gone away long ago, or died in the long years. That spiritual world may have been its nest."
"Since it's a lair, what kind of Pokémon will there be?"
Audrey thought of the poems written by bards. All dragons like to collect shiny treasures. The spiritual dragon should be the same, right?
"If it has shed its scales, horns, blood, etc., it should be considered some kind of treasure."
Derrick didn't know much about this part of the content, and immediately said that he would learn more about it after returning.
With the chat between Miss Justice and Little Sun, the scene became lively again, changing the previous uneasy and dull atmosphere.
Forsi, who rarely speaks, also shared some daily news about his good friend Xio.
There was no way she could do it. She had been staying at home to avoid the turmoil among Backlund's Star Believers. She hardly went out on weekdays, so naturally she wouldn't encounter anything new.
Only when Xio comes back, he will tell her the latest situation of Backlund.
Derrick also shared some of his experiences in Silver City during this period.
After the three people shared their experiences during this period, the scene seemed to cool down again.
Audrey wanted to change this situation, but she didn't know what to say.
Forsi didn't care about this atmosphere. Now, she was just thinking about whether Mr. Hanged Man, who was suspected of being a pirate, had done too many bad things and was arrested?
Derrick looked at Mr. Fool and then at Miss Justice.
He was also very uncomfortable without the familiar and warm-hearted Mr. Hanged Man.
"That's it for this party."
Klein has no intention of actively bringing up the topic. He is the mysterious and great Mr. Fool. Although he is very interested in many things that happened in Backlund, his identity restricts him and prevents him from actively mentioning these small things. .
It would be great if I had my own trumpet in Tarot meetings.
In this case, when encountering something in the future, such as the less successful Tarot Club like today, he can come forward to liven up the atmosphere.
…
After this less successful tarot session ended, Audrey lay on the bed, feeling a little depressed.
She seemed to lack abilities in many aspects. For example, Mr. Hanged Man was not here today, and she originally wanted to assist Mr. Fool in hosting this week's Tarot Club.
Unfortunately, my knowledge of mysticism is limited, and I don't have many stories or information to tell, so it can easily make the atmosphere awkward.
This is not good. She must start to learn to stand alone, so that even if Mr. Hanged Man is not around, she can still be someone people are willing to believe.
After resting for a while, Audrey got up and opened the door. Susie, who was waiting at the door, ran in impatiently.
After Audrey closed the door again, Susie lowered her voice and said, "Audrey, Mr. Hasta was here just now."
"Mr. Hasta, why did he come?" Audrey was a little nervous.
"Don't worry, I blocked him outside the door just now and he didn't come in to disturb you." Susie was asking for credit.
"Susie, you are awesome!"
Seeing Audrey so happy, Susie also took the opportunity to make her own request.
"What, you want the book "The Complete Collection of Quotations of Emperor Roselle"!"
"Yes, I think you should reward me something."
"..."
Audrey silently touched Susie's dog head and said, "Susie, you have changed, you are really different."
"Audrey, is this a good thing?"
Audrey did not answer this question. For Susie, this should be a good thing, but for her, it doesn't seem so good.
Especially now, Susie knows how to ask for credit first, and then make her own request.
It's really going to be a spirit!
Hasta came out of the guest room just before dinner. He slept for about three hours and was full of energy.
When he came to the restaurant on the first floor, he met Susie who was resting on the ground and greeted her enthusiastically.
Susie's tail stood up, left in a panic, and ran to Audrey's side.
"So scared of me? Did I do something to Susie?"
Hasta thought about it for a while and almost guessed Susie's thoughts.
It was probably afraid that when it was alone with him, he would see that it was not an ordinary golden retriever, but an extraordinary dog of Sequence 8 mind reader.
After enjoying dinner, Hasta finally waited for the opportunity to be alone with Audrey.
He hadn't heard Audrey's adventure story in detail yet, and he was very interested in it.
At the stone table in the garden, Hasta sat opposite Audrey, Susie lay on her side at Audrey's feet, and not far behind her, two personal maids were guarding Audrey.
After the last accident, Earl Hall was particularly concerned about Audrey's safety. If Audrey hadn't actively refused, she would have eight personal maids now.
She didn't want to be followed by a bunch of people wherever she went. In this way, she felt awkward and unfree.
"Mr. Hasta doesn't know what happened to me?"
Facing Hasta's question about her adventure story, Audrey chose to ask back.
"I just have a little guess that this should be related to your spiritual world."
"What else?"
"The white tower should be related to the Mind Dragon."
"Mind Dragon?" Audrey pretended not to understand and blinked her eyes that were confused and eager for new knowledge.
Hasta just gave a brief introduction and then revealed the topic.
If you just want to win Audrey's trust, it's too simple. You just need to tell her about dancing alone on the top of the tower.
"Okay."
Seeing that Hasta had been avoiding the question of how he helped her, Audrey could only take over the topic and start telling her adventure story.
When Hastur heard Audrey say that she saw herself and Susie, Hastur understood the key.
The fog in the forest contains a little power of the spiritual dragon. With Susie as the anchor, Audrey in the spiritual world can see the actions of herself and Susie.
So Audrey can follow herself and Susie to find the silver-white tower, and then climb to the top of the tower to leave the spiritual world.
Then the question is, why can't Audrey find the silver-white tower when she is alone?
Such a striking building should be more dazzling in the misty forest described by Audrey.
There seems to be only one answer, Audrey is lost.
She was like a headless fly walking around, until she and Susie appeared and pointed her in the direction.
Hey, why do I suddenly feel a little pity in Mr. Hastur's eyes?
Audrey looked at Hastur puzzledly, and before she asked, Hastur's words attracted her attention.
"Have you seen islands exposed on the sea?"
