Chapter 1 A Different World Line.
This is the first time I have seen such a difficult author, give me five votes
In the Fifth Epoch, on April 21, 1350, the door of "Grosel's Travels" that had been sealed for thousands of years was opened.
Klein Moretti, who used the pseudonym German Sparrow, [Iceberg Vice Admiral] Edwina Edwards, Solomon noble Mobet Zoroast, elf singer Siatas, Loen soldier Longzel, and ascetic monk Snowman, stepped through the door at the same time and returned to Edwina's captain's room.
Klein and the others quickly cast their eyes to the center of the table, where a book bound with yellow-brown parchment was spread out.
The book was flipped by the invisible wind and came to the last page. Klein and others saw the ending:
"With the help of crazy adventurers and powerful hunters, Groselle fulfilled his promise and led his teammates to kill the "King of the North", but he also fell asleep in the Frost Kingdom."
In the original world line, this should have been the only paragraph in "Groselle's Travels", but at this time, there was an extra paragraph in the book. Perhaps this is the reason why their fate has changed:
"Elves and soldiers, nobles and ascetics, With the joy of victory and the sorrow of sacrifice, he left the frozen land where the [King of the North] was entrenched and came to the pirate lady's ship. "
"The story of Groselle and the dragon ends here."
"At least, we have an ending." Mobet turned his head with a bitter smile, put down Groselle's thigh, and looked at the beautiful elf singer, "Shatas, where do you want to go next?"
"Looking for my people," Shatas said, "If possible, I hope the storm will belong to the elves again."
In the original world line, Mobet in her eyes should have white hair, wrinkles, and aged rapidly, but at this moment, he did not do so.
Because of this, he can continue to talk with Shatas.
"I'll go with you," he smiled and shrugged, "I just happen to be looking for the descendants of the Zoroast family, and we can just go together."
"You can go to an organization called [Fate Hermit Association] to look for it," Klein said.
"That is an organization established by the [Thieves] through the Beyonder, and there is a high probability that the ancient families of the Fourth Epoch are involved."
"That means that the Jacob family may also be involved?" Mobet said to himself, "As long as the Amon family is not involved, everything will be fine."
"Where are you going, Longzel?" Anderson asked, "Back to Backlund?"
"Yes," the Loen soldier from a hundred years ago replied, "I want to see what Backlund has become."
"Your Beyonder power is gone," Edwina seemed to have noticed something, looking at Longzel, frowning, "but the transformation of the body by the potion
Klein looked at Longzel, and his spiritual intuition told him that Longzel was no longer powerful and no longer had the power of Sequence 5, but there was no Beyonder characteristic at the scene.
"Fake is real..." Edwina continued
said, "This is not something that ordinary demigods can do. Only angels and true gods can do such incredible things. "
"But fake is fake after all."
"Fake potion?" Longzel smiled bitterly, "What an incredible book."
"You may not live long," Edwina said seriously, "People with extraordinary physiques without the power of potions are destined to live short."
"It doesn't matter, I'm content." Longzel said frankly, "I should have died on the battlefield a long time ago, right?"
Edwina was silent, she closed her eyes
After a moment, she opened them again, as if she accepted everything.
Contentment?
Klein couldn't help thinking, if he came to the distant future and could never return to his own era, would he be content because he could continue to survive?
Ask yourself, he can't do it. After all, no matter what, he is just a [Fool from another world], not a real [Fool who does not belong to this era].
Content?
Klein couldn't help but think, if he came to the distant future and could never return to his own era, would he be content because he could continue to survive?
Ask yourself, he can't do it. After all, no matter what, he is just a [Fool from another world], not a real [Patient who does not belong to this era].
"We are all children of God."
The ascetic Snowman did not raise his head or open his eyes. He just clasped his hands and bowed his head to pray.
"Everything you recall will last forever in the kingdom of the Lord."
"Because the Lord created everything, all the good, all the evil, all the ugliness, all the beauty, and because of this, the Lord created everything and bears all the sins."
"The Lord must also bear the sin of separating you from your blood relatives."
As soon as Snowman finished speaking, arcs of electricity jumped on Xiatas's hands, and anger flashed in her eyes.
Obviously, she had no good feelings towards the Lord that Snowman mentioned, and this time, there was no Groselle to stop her.
Just as her hand flashing with arcs was about to chop Snowman, she suddenly became dazed and her body froze. At the same time, Mobet's hand chopped at the air beside her.
"You two should be quiet for a while," Mobet covered his head, "Do you want to fight in front of Groselle's body?"
"Shatas, you have more important things to do, right? Aren't you going to ask German for that golden wine cup?"
Shatas's eyes flashed, and the arc on her hand dissipated. She looked at Klein, her expression full of anxiety.
"Thief Path Sequence 5, Dream Thief, after stealing other people's thoughts, it seems that you need to replace the stolen thoughts to complete the stolen thoughts."
Klein looked at Mobet, and then at Shatas.
"Since she has given me the potion formula of [Ocean Singer], I should not break my promise. I will definitely fulfill the agreement and give her the golden cup of Cosinamu."
'But should I give it to her now, or later, after returning to Bayam?"
"If I give her the golden cup now to complete the transaction, then although we have established a friendship and can keep in touch in the future, we are ultimately just chance encounters, just like me and the great detective Isengard Stanton...
"Shatas is from the Second Epoch, and Mobet is from the Fourth Epoch. The history they hold is of vital importance to me."
"If we can bring them into the Tarot Club, it will have great positive significance for both me personally and for the development of the Tarot Club.
After a moment, Klein made a decision. He
maintained Gehrman's indifference and said to Shatas:
"I hid the cup in Bayam and will give it to you when the ship sails over. "
By then he will have enough time and reason to talk to Siatas, and he can also take this opportunity to reveal the existence of the Fool to her and Mobet, and encourage them to join the Tarot Club.
After that, he turned to look at Anderson.
"Cream Groselle, I have a channel to help him find a suitable grave."
"Can you still take him to the Giant King's Court?" Anderson smiled without any smile and shook his head.
But he still stretched out his hand to summon the red-white flames and burned Groselle's body into ashes.
"By the way, how do you want to deal with Groselle's characteristics? It's too wasteful to leave it like this.
"
Anderson put away the flame and asked, but he soon found that this seemed to be a wrong question.
Because he instantly aroused everyone's disgust and anger, even the monk Snowman, who had never cared about the suffering of the outside world, raised his head for the first time.
"I mean... He raised his hand quickly, smiling while raising his hand, "Although Groselle is dead, his remaining spirit must still remain in his characteristics."
"You are his companions and friends, you are the ones who know him best, we must always discuss a way to prepare for the last spirit of our friend.What I mean is…" He raised his hand hastily, smiling apologetically as he did so, "Although Groselle is dead, his legacy must still exist in his personality."
"You are his companions and friends. You are the ones who know him best. We must always work out a way to prepare a final destination for our friend's spirit, right?"
'Sooner or later this guy will be
If it weren't for the Joker's ability to control his facial expressions, Klein's mouth would have twitched.
"Is this a common trait among hunters?"
"Take it." Mobet looked at the characteristics extracted by Groselle and turned to look at Klein. "Without you, we would not be able to defeat the [King of the North]."
"You can defeat the Frost Dragon even without me." Klein denied Mobet's statement.
"No, we will die in there together. We have no way to stop the final madness of the King of the North. Besides, it is also very risky for you to enter the book to save us."
Edwina obviously didn't think that they alone could withstand the Northern King's final self-destructive attack.
Ask yourself, with just her secret technique and a magical item in her hand, there is no way she could survive a self-detonation comparable to that of a Sequence 4.
If she had brought her other two magical items with her when she entered Groselle's Travels, she could have given it a try, but there was no doubt that she didn't.
Eight" 10/Attack from the front.

Looking at the eyes of Siatas, Snowman, and Longzel, Klein nodded and accepted the Guardian Beyonder characteristic that was like a giant's heart, but he did not keep it and handed it to Danitz instead.
"Me? I didn't do anything. I didn't participate in the battle... Danitz was very frightened, fearing that these people would be dissatisfied with German's decision.
"You explored the path and took risks."
For Klein, this was actually a kind of compensation, because Danitz recited the honorific name of the Fool and knew the secret of Gehrman Sparrow, so he had to be forced to become a believer of the Fool, otherwise there would be great hidden dangers.
Although this was one of the risks Danitz had voluntarily taken, Klein still wanted to make up for it. Of course, he hoped that Danitz would regard this as a gift from the Fool.
Whether it was exchanging Groselle's extraordinary characteristics for money, purchasing the corresponding formulas and materials, or making defensive magical items, it was very useful to Danitz.
"I have no objection," Longzel said, "Mr. Hermann is certainly qualified and has the right to choose how to deal with this special inheritance."
After seeing that the others had also expressed their opinions, Danitz slowly accepted it.Chapter 2 Gambling
...............Great Mr. [Fool], please tell [Sun] that I have obtained the formula of the Sequence 6 [Notary] potion he wants, and I also have clues about the formula and main ingredients of [Priest of Light]. He can temporarily withhold payment and count it as an outstanding debt, and pay it all together in the future.
Great Mr. Fool, please tell the Hanged Man that I have obtained the potion formula of the Ocean Singer and will give it to him at the next Tarot meeting. Please think about what he can use in exchange."
Above the gray fog, the busy [world] disappeared. Klein finally had time to sit in the Fool's seat and study "Groselle's Travels"
—————A thank you gift from Vice Admiral Iceberg.
Just as Klein was about to divine its origin after confirming that it was not the unique path of the Audience, beneath the gray fog, on the Golden Dream
Edwina Edwards had somehow returned to her usual teaching ways and was explaining a whole new course to her new students.
However, each of these new students is older than the lieutenant general, and perhaps even stronger than her.
However, Snowman, Xiatas and Mobet did not care about these two points. They were quite interested in the distribution of countries and world geography of this era.
"The Eternal Sun Church, the Storm Church, and the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom are in opposition, and the missionary countries are divided.
"The missionary countries of the Church of Night, the Church of God of War, and the Church of Steam are......
...............In addition, there are the following secret organizations...
While Edwina was talking nonstop, Anderson Hood had fallen asleep. It seemed that Edwina was so used to this that she turned a blind eye to it.
In other words, she already had ways to deal with this situation.
In addition, there is another
The organization called the Iron Cross controls the Hunter Path." After saying that, she looked at Anderson.
"Anderson, please tell me about the situation of that organization."
"Iron Cross?!" Anderson immediately woke up
"No, no, no... don't mention that organization. The guys there are a bunch of idiots and fools.
You are a piece of shit!! You are so stupid to believe in the [True Creator]!!"
"oh?"
Mobet looked at Anderson with interest.
"True Creator? Believe in the True Creator
How can a person become stupid?" He obviously didn't believe it, "Master Medici and Master Ouroboros are both very smart?"
"Who are they?" Siatas asked in confusion, "They are called the Angel Kings. What is the Angel King? What is the difference between them and the Subordinate Gods?"
"The difference is that the Angel King is more powerful than most of the gods."
Klein walked into the captain's room and answered Siatas's questions.
"According to the existing data, the Second Age
Judging from the strength of the gods, most of them are Sequence 2, and there are very few Sequence 1. It seems that there is no such thing as surpassing Sequence 1."
"And as far as I know, the Angel King should be superior to [2] and [1], and second only to the true God in terms of terror."
"The concept of [sequence] is still
It's a bit vague," said Siatas, "In your words, the so-called [blasphemous slate] had not been discovered in my time."
How's your research on the travelogue?" Edwina asked with some anticipation.
"According to the revelation given by the hidden existence, the author of this book is the ancient god named Angerwede. Miss Siatas should have heard of this name."
As he spoke, Klein looked at Siatas, hoping to get some feedback.
"[Dragon of Imagination]Angerwede?" There was no doubt that Siatas knew what this name meant. "No wonder this book is so strange.
"The key that originated from the giant, are you still selling it?" Klein maintained his character and did not reply to Xia.
Tas, continue to ask Edwina.For sale." Edwina thought for a moment, glanced in the direction of the collection room, and added, "I can lend it to you for research. You can decide whether to buy it before leaving the ship."
"I don't take advantage of others." As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a little regretful, fearing that [Lieutenant General Iceberg] would really change his words.
Edwina's light blue eyes turned slightly and said:
"The only condition is that if you find anything, tell me the answer."
First: Huh... Klein stopped talking and gently led
"good."
There was nothing special about the next few days. After the pirates had a bonfire party, they sailed to Bayam. Mr. Azik wrote a letter to explain what mythical creatures were.
Amid the envious gazes of the crew, Klein entered the captain's room and discussed history with Vice Admiral Iceberg. He stayed there for nearly ten hours.
Three days later, the Golden Dream arrived in Baia
Mu, Klein, Mobet, Siatas, Anderson, and Danitz got off the ship and left the Golden Dream, while the ascetic Snowman stayed on the ship.
"I'll go get the wine glass. You guys can go anywhere. I can find you."
The moment Klein got off the boat,
After leaving these words, he ignored everyone's gaze, blended into the rising and falling crowd in the private port, and disappeared.
"Shit…" Danitz muttered, "I really envy that guy's divination ability…"
"Only a failed hunter like you needs to be envious," Anderson clearly had no envy.
Heart, "Every path has its own advantages, and it's too late for others to envy us."
"Shit..."
The two hunters' discussion quickly turned into an argument, and into a dispute over the Conspirator potion.
However, this dispute only involved two people on the same path. The two ancient people who did not belong to the hunter path had already left.
Mobet and Siatas had left without knowing when.
He entered the streets of Bayam and walked among the vendors.
Pupils that do not belong to this era scan everything that belongs to this era, taking in everything
into the heart.
Although Siatas, who came from the Second Age, had disguised herself to cover up her elf features and changed her clothes to better blend in with the streets, her appearance could not disguise the shock in her heart.
"This is the Fifth Epoch... thousands of years from now.
"It's completely invisible, leaving behind even the slightest trace of my era...
"It's because the false god, the Lord of Storms,
Has everything about the elves been wiped out?' She thought, biting her lip.
"How much is this apple?" Mobet stopped beside her and asked in pure Loenese - he used the language spell given by Admiral Iceberg.
"Two pence," replied the stall owner.
"Two pennies... and these fruits
"Mobet asked, his eyes flickering.
No one noticed that a small insect with five or six segments appeared in his pupils.
This is the analysis and deciphering ability of [Thief] Path Sequence 7, [Cryptologist].
He wanted to analyze and decipher the prices of this era based on market prices, and use this to evaluate the prices of various materials in the field of mysticism.
As [Decryption] was activated, more information gradually emerged in Mobet's mind, and he gradually came to understand this era.
"The prices at the bottom level are somewhat different from those in the Solomon Empire... He secretly assessed that "it is more
"Use the ratio of the price of the Empire Sequence 9 potion formula to the price of apples as a reference, and then bring in the price of apples in this era to exchange.
'A recipe for a sequence 9 potion is worth about 100 pounds.
"However, considering this era, Sequence 7 can actually be used as the standard for determining mid-sequences, and Sequence 9 potion formulas will most likely be priced at a premium. Let's just assume it's 200 pounds...
'Based on the price of the sequence 9 potion formula
Basic reference, decipher the value of other occult materialsWhile Mobet was using his ability to decipher the information, Klein had also completed the ritual of sacrifice and bestowal, and the golden wine cup was bestowed upon him from above the gray fog.
At this moment, he was using the divining rod to find the location of Mobet and Siatas.
As he searched, he pondered how to trick, no, invite the two ancient figures to recite the name of "The Fool" and join the Tarot Club.
He doesn't have much time left because today is Sunday and tomorrow is the day of the Tarot Club.
Gradually, he had an idea.
"The golden goblet you requested."
After a while, Klein found Siatas and the other person and handed the golden wine cup to her as promised.
"Yes, it's this wine glass!" Xiatas happily took the slightly flattened golden wine glass.
"This is the pattern and signature. It is definitely Her Majesty the Queen's wine glass!!"
"There are more relics of Cosinamu than this." Klein mentioned it deliberately, and as expected, he saw the direct gaze that Siatas gave him.
"As far as I know, He left behind two things." Klein talked to the two of them while turning with them to a deserted place.
There are many such places because they landed from the rebels' private ports.
"One is his legacy characteristic. To be more precise, it is a legacy characteristic of a Sequence 3, which should be called [Sea King]... This characteristic was swallowed alive by a sea snake named Kalvetua."
"Although the sea serpent was mad, it luckily did not lose control. With that power, it became the native false god of the Rossde Islands."
"That sea serpent died recently, at the hands of the Church of Storms. However, the Church of Storms did not obtain Kalvetua's extraordinary characteristics, nor did it obtain the seal derived from its characteristics."
"The reason is simple. I found Kalvetuwa's body before them, took the seal and presented it to my Lord, and got this wine cup there."
After hearing this, Xiatas frowned, but soon relaxed again.
A demigod-level sealed object would not be rejected by any force or organization. It was reasonable for Gehrman Sparrow to seek a sealed object for his organization, and there was no problem with it.
Although Siatas wanted to take back the seal
But she didn't think she could bear the side effects of a demigod-level sealed object.
She had no choice but to put away her emotions and thoughts and continue listening.
"Another relic is a book called
"The Book of Disasters", at least that's what it says on the cover. I don't know what level that book is, but
It can drive people crazy and out of control."
"This makes one wonder if that Gao Xinmu
Are you still alive, living in that book, just like you live in Groselle's Travels?"
"Did you take the book too?" she asked anxiously.
"No, that book was taken away by the Church of the Storm
"Klein poured cold water on her. "According to the time, we have already arrived at the headquarters of the Church of Storms."
Siatas was silent again. She didn't think she could break into the headquarters of the Church of Storms and take the
Grab this book.
Although she has always called the Lord of Storms a false god,
But she knew very well how powerful the Lord of Storms was. In the thousands of years in Groselle's Travels, she had already asked Mobet about the situation of the Storm Church.
Since the Storm Church is in Solomon's First Empire
It was already a behemoth in its early days, and it is still a prosperous and glorious Orthodox Church today. There is no doubt that the power of the Storm Church today is not much weaker than before, and it may even be stronger.
And she's not even a demigod.
"Although this era is very different from yours, some things remain unchanged."
Klein saw that the effect he wanted was achieved.
Then he changed the subject and started talking about his real purpose and began his lobbying.
"You want to find your people, you want to find the descendants of the Zoroast family."
"No matter what, it requires channels, and
You certainly have no channels other than Admiral Iceberg."
"So, what do you want to recommend to us?
Channel? "Cao Beite narrowed his eyes. He could hear"So, what channel do you want to recommend to us?" Mobet narrowed his eyes. He could hear the hidden meaning behind German Sparrow's words.
As a former [swindler], he could sense that there was a certain degree of deception in Gehrman Sparrow's words, but it was a kind of benevolent deception similar to conventional preaching.
"If you are willing to chant the name of my Lord, you will immediately gain a channel. With your origins, you will definitely be favored by my Lord."
Seeing that Mobet had asked the key question, Klein also spoke out the words he had been brewing for a long time.
"I will never change my faith!" Siatas said decisively, "I am a subject of His Majesty the Elf King Sonyasolem, and my only faith is His Majesty's storms and lightning!!"
"The Zoroast family only believes in the great [Black Emperor] Solomon," Mobet said without hesitation, "I will never betray the human god who helped the family preserve the Sequence 1 Beyonder characteristics."
"No need to proselytize."
Klein had anticipated the reactions of the two and had already prepared his words.
"I am not trying to recruit followers for my Lord. I just want to invite you to join the organization established by my Lord."
"That organization only meets in the kingdom of our Lord. Therefore, if you want to attend, you must recite the name of our Lord at least once."
"Reciting the name of a hidden being is likely to cause danger," Mobet said decisively, "The risk is too great, I refuse..."
"If I don't need to change my beliefs, I accept it." Before Mobet could say anything to refuse, Siatas interrupted him and said, "We all accept it."
There is no doubt that she took it upon herself to vote on Mobet's behalf.
"Shatas?" Mobet looked at her in surprise.
"I know it's dangerous, but I'm willing to take the risk."
She gritted her teeth, turned to look at Klein, and expressed her thoughts.
"German Sparrow, if you hadn't come, we would still be in that travel book, waiting for the decisive battle that might never come."
"You kept your promise and gave me Her Majesty the Queen
I recognize your character."
Siatas' eyes, which seemed to conceal a storm, stared at
Klein's gaze was so sharp that he wanted to look away.
"Edwina said that most of the elves in this world are mixed-blooded. There are fewer and fewer pure-blooded elves. My people must be...
"With just myself and the few tribesmen I have, there is no way I can make the storm belong to the elves again."
As she spoke, she clenched her fists until they began to tremble.
"At least... at least let the world remember
Yes, the storm belongs to the elves!" She turned to look at Mobet, "Compared to this goal, my life is worthless!! It's just a cheap chip.
code!!"
"So, I'm willing to take a chance!!" she said again
He looked at Klein and said, "Tell me the name of your Lord. I am willing to gamble my life and soul that your God is not a malicious evil spirit!!"
"Okay," Klein smiled. This was in line with his character. The crazy Gehrman Sparrow admired others who dared to gamble their lives. "My Lord's name is...
"Patients who do not belong to this era,"
"The mysterious ruler above the gray fog,"
"The yellow and black king who controls good luck."
"May you fulfill your wishes under his care."2د
