Secret: The undead do not die in the fire

Chapter 18: First Tarot Club
apprentice.

This is the sequential path Embers has chosen.

The reason is also very simple.

Because the Apprentice itself is one of the recommendations, and this path has some abilities that Ember is very interested in -

Sequence 9: 'Apprentice', can pass through walls.

Sequence 5: 'Traveler', can flash.

Besides.

Ember considered the paths of fortune teller, thief, and polymath, but ultimately gave up.

The reason for considering the Universalist is that its core ability of Sequence 9 'Universist' is to awaken memory.

This is extremely tempting for the amnesiac ember.

But he finally gave up.

Because my memory was not forgotten, but had been burned.

He didn't think that a mere Sequence Nine would be enough to restore his memory.

not to mention.

His intuition told him that recovering his memory now might not be a good thing.

As for the thief and the fortune teller, he considered them seriously for similar reasons and chose his apprentice after careful consideration.

Although divination and stealing both seem good, they are not suitable for him.

For him, flash is more real.

After he selected the sequence path, Ms. Arianna disappeared quietly.

In his place was the kind-looking Anthony.

He would prepare and mix the apprentice-level potions for Ember to advance to.

As for where the ingredients for the potion come from?

This is obviously not a difficult task for the Church of Night.

……

Monday, October 7.

Three days have passed since Ember returned to Backlund and became an apprentice.

And this day was also the 'Tarot Club' that the Fool had told him about.

Ember lay on the bed in the room on the third floor of St. Samuel's Church, waiting quietly.

……

Above the gray mist, huge stone pillars supported a magnificent temple.

Two dark red masses suddenly appeared next to the ancient and mottled bronze long table, blurring and stretching into illusory figures.

Next to one of the deep red figures, there was a tiny flame rising slowly.

But no one has ever discovered it.

"Tarot Club?"

Yu Jin opened his eyes and looked at the people nearby.

The first person at the top is still The Fool, and on the same side there is a man with messy dark blue hair.

On the other side was a tall girl with smooth blonde hair.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool."

The blonde girl made a pleasant sound like a cheerful lark. She smiled and said, "It's a pity that there is no good wine here, otherwise we could toast to your successful attempt."

"You are far more powerful than we imagine."

Alger Wilson followed suit with a compliment.

Klein was still surrounded by extremely thick gray fog. He pressed his right hand lightly and spoke at a steady pace.

"This is the new member, titled Lover."

"This is Miss Justice, Mr. Hanged Man."

"Lover?!"

Alger and Audrey were both startled and subconsciously looked in the direction Mr. Fool pointed.

That's not some inconspicuous corner.

The other person was sitting not far from Alger, but the two of them didn't notice anything from beginning to end!

If it weren't for Mr. Fool's guidance, they might not have noticed each other until the end of the Tarot Club!

"Forget about Mr. Hanged Man. I am a spectator now, and I didn't even notice it."

As Miss Audrey observed the embers, she couldn't help but wonder, "This is Mr. Fool's Tarot Club. How did he do it?"

Alger's hands and feet were even colder.

He was unable to detect the other person's presence even at such a close distance.

What if the other party was hostile to him, wouldn't he have died without knowing why?

Fortunately, this is Mr. Fool's Tarot Club, and the other party will not attack me for no reason. "..."

Klein the Fool looked at the dazzling array of rings on Ember's fingers, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

Above the gray fog, he could clearly see the pattern of the ring on the other person's left hand.

Thanks to having completed the game many times before, he still remembered the styles of these rings clearly -

Starting from the thumb, they are Greedy Gold Snake Ring, Greedy Silver Snake Ring, Sleeping Dragon Emblem Ring, Phantom Limb Ring, and Silver Cat Ring.

The first two increase the 'treasure drop rate', while the last three have a 'hiding' effect.

The Sleeping Dragon Ring eliminates sound, the Phantom Limb Ring makes you invisible, and the Silver Cat Ring is completely immune to damage when dropped.

Just now, the other party had quietly taken off the Sleeping Dragon Emblem Ring and the Phantom Limb Ring.

Without this, even with their own guidance, Justice and the Hanged Man would never have been able to discover each other.

Although these rings are unique to the Dark Souls world, they can obviously also play a role in this world.

It’s hard to say about high sequence.

But in the middle and low sequences, any one of these rings can be regarded as an absolute killer!
In addition, the opponent also has five rings on his right hand, and the effects of each ring are also different.

Based on this, Klein had reason to suspect that the other person's toes were also covered with rings!
"Damn it, I want it too!"

Klein felt a little sour for no reason.

Others have max-level gear when they first travel through time, but I have nothing when I come across.

We are all time travelers, so why is the gap between time travelers so big?
"However, being able to bring the ring above the gray fog should be the effect of the 'backpack', right? Someone originally jokingly called the 'backpack' a soul space. Now it seems that this is indeed the case. After all, only souls come above the gray fog."

"But this also means that these rings can also work on a soul level."

"And since he was brought above the gray fog, that means the other party's real body should not be wearing a ring at this time."

"No, that's not right! His true form can definitely wear other rings!"

"The 'soul' wears ten rings, and the body also wears 'ten rings'. Together with the feet, that's a total of forty rings."

"Gan!"

The more Klein thought about it, the more upset he became, and he almost cried.

Damn it, why did he have to see this?

Gray fog, ah, gray fog!
Look at others and then look at yourself, can't you do something?
"Hello, Mr. Lover."

Miss Audrey smiled sweetly, and her clear and pleasant voice rang in her lover's ears.

But after saying hello, she suddenly felt something strange.

Lovers or something...

"Hello."

Alger nodded slightly as a greeting, but did not mention Ember's nickname.

That would make him feel a little embarrassed.

"Hmm~"

Audrey's face turned red, and it was obvious that she had realized the problem.

In order to avoid further embarrassment, the girl hurriedly changed the subject and said, "Mr. Fool, I have obtained another page of Emperor Roselle's diary. I should still owe one page."

"I was away from land this week and couldn't find any new ones."

Upon hearing this, Alger immediately stood up, put his right hand on his chest, and bent forward to express his apology.

"Emperor Roselle's diary?"

Ember frowned slightly.

Ever since he last talked to The Fool and learned about Emperor Roselle, he had gotten to know this person a little better.

After all, he is a confirmed time traveler, so it won’t hurt to know more about him.

And now, Roselle's diary has appeared again.

"if."

Ember slowly said, "If I want to obtain these 'diaries', what price do I have to pay?"

"Eh?"

Audrey looked at Yu Jin in surprise, and Alger also looked surprised.

PS: The reason for choosing an apprentice is very simple.

The protagonist is an undead being, with no shortage of attack methods or spells.

The only things that can have some effect on him are precognition (fortune teller) and flash (apprentice).

In addition, the protagonist is an undead and he wants to backstab, so he chooses to flash.

This makes sense.

PS2: Choosing an apprentice is also a tribute to the apprentice boss.

Yes, that's right, that's it.
