Secret: The undead do not die in the fire

"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool."

On Monday, in the ancient palace above the gray fog, the Tarot Club members emerged at the same time and greeted Mr. Fool in unison.

Klein looked around and suddenly felt something:

The Hanged Man is currently the Cardinal of the Church of Storms in the Rorsted Islands, responsible for the liaison between the Church of Storms and the Church of Fools.

Justice was already a Sequence 3 demigod, and all he needed was a suitable ritual to be promoted to a Sequence 2 angel. Putting aside himself and Ember, this was undoubtedly the first angel to be promoted by the Tarot Club.

In addition, with the help of Carula, Justice has basically completed the control of the Psychological Alchemy Society. Although this secret organization is only a vassal of the Dusk Hermit Society and Adam, due to its characteristics of being spread across various countries in the Northern Continent, its own strength should not be underestimated.

The Sun is the Archbishop of the Fool Church and an elder of the Six-Man Council of Silver City. He is the most devout follower of the Fool in the Tarot Club. Besides the Sun, the second most devout one is probably the Hanged Man, a traitor of the Church of Storms...

'Moon' is a vampire count, and in the future he may also serve as the archbishop of the Church of Mother Earth.

'The Hermit' has risen to become the Pirate King and is also one of the Ten Pillars of the Moss Ascetic Order.

The Magician, with the support of the Abraham Family, is leading the members of the Abraham Family to use the special extraordinary ability of the Gate to quickly travel back and forth between the Kingdom of Loen and the Kingdom of Feynaport to provide enough food for the missionary work of the Church of Fools.

Although Judgment had only joined MI5 last year, due to his demigod strength, his outstanding performance during the war, and his record of killing the demigod Feysac in the Battle of Backlund, he had now been successfully promoted to lieutenant general and became one of the top leaders of MI5.

The weakest one at the moment is still 'Xingxing'. Although he has completely digested the potion with the power of the dream world, he still needs a Sequence 4 'Night Watcher' Beyonder characteristic to advance. This is a very difficult thing to do without betraying the Church of the Night.

Even though he had accumulated a lot of merit during the war, and could get a chance to advance to Sequence 4 from the Church of Evernight, there were many Nightwatchmen who had the same idea and enough merit, and many of them were waiting for this chance to advance. In other words, if one wanted to advance to Sequence 4, the ‘stars’ had to line up.

Klein the Fool, who was shrouded in gray mist, quickly retracted his gaze, feeling inexplicably emotional:

The Tarot Club has grown to this point! Not only are almost all of its members demigods, but all of them hold high positions in major churches and secret organizations... Well, let's not talk about the former for now, the latter is also a manifestation of the Tarot Club's strength... But from the perspective of the major churches, the Tarot Club is simply a gathering place for traitors...

Klein the Fool complained in his heart, but quickly calmed down and said with a smile:
"This should be the last time we meet this year."

Hearing Mr. Fool's words, Alger, the Hanged Man, felt a shudder in his heart, because he understood what Mr. Fool meant. Almost subconsciously, the Hanged Man turned his head to look at the other members, and found that they all had more or less surprised expressions on their faces, and it was precisely because they understood that they were surprised!

Derrick the Sun asked with some concern:
"Mr. Fool, are you going to fall into a deep sleep?"

The Hanged Man looked away. Well, it seemed someone still didn't understand.

The 'magician' kindly reminded:
"Mr. Sun, today is already December 12th."

"what?"

The Sun was stunned for a moment, but still didn't react.

The Moon explained in silence:
"That means the next Tarot Club meeting will be next year."

'The Sun' finally came to his senses, looking a little embarrassed.

But he soon realized something else - was Mr. Fool kidding them? This had never happened before!
After all, Mr. Fool is a god!

He subconsciously observed the expressions of others. Although he was not as meticulous as Miss Justice, he could still see the emotional changes of other members to some extent - this was an ability he developed during his time as Archbishop.

The Hanged Man Alger thought silently:

"It seems that Mr. Fool's humanity has been more fully manifested."

At his level, he could more or less guess the importance of "faith" to the gods, especially since he had the intelligence channel of the Tarot Club.

The reason why the major gods are keen on developing believers is actually to use the believers' faith as an 'anchor' to fight against the divinity brought by the Beyonder characteristics. In this confrontation, their humanity can be preserved to the greatest extent.

Mr. Fool is a resurrected ancient god. Before this, there were only some powerful but insignificant followers. With the surrender of Silver City and the rise of the Church of Fool, Mr. Fool's followers have increased to millions.

The faith of these millions of believers is enough to become an anchor for a god, helping him to fight against divinity. And the humanity that is preserved and released in the confrontation makes Mr. Fool more humanized.

Just like now, Mr. Fool, who has gained more humanity, will even take the initiative to joke with them.

If The Hanged Man could figure it out, then of course everyone else could as well. It was just that they all chose to ignore it, and no one would take the initiative to discuss it, because it was disrespectful to Mr. Fool.

Leonard looked around and saw that the other members remained silent, so he spoke tentatively:

"According to the intelligence we have collected so far, a war between gods did take place before. What is certain is that the ones who appeared in the sky above Backlund were the 'Goddess of Night', the 'Lord of Storms', the 'God of War', and the 'Mother Goddess of the Earth'. As for the result, I think everyone is clear about it. What do you think about it?"

"I can't understand why such a result occurred. The mother and son team of 'Mother Goddess of the Earth' and 'God of War' were defeated so easily by the 'Goddess of Night'..."

The Hermit Cattleya did not hide her doubts and frowned slightly.

The war had made a lot of preparations for this war of gods, and this protracted war was the best manifestation of this.

After the war between gods ended, although she received the oracle from Mr. Fool and took over Sonia Island before the Church of Storms, she still felt it was incredible. It was obviously the God of War who took the initiative to attack, which was enough to prove that the God of War was fully confident before taking action.

But the final result was that the war ended quickly in less than a day. So what preparations had He made before that?

The Hanged Man Alger withdrew his thoughts and said carefully:

"I received a piece of intelligence. Feynaporte switched sides just after the God War ended."

"The Mother Goddess of Earth betrayed the God of War?" It was difficult for 'Judgment' Xio to understand.

What is this? A loving mother and a filial son?

Yu Jin looked at the stunned expressions of the crowd and asked with a smile:

"What makes you think Mother Earth is Omibella?"

Hearing this, everyone in the Tarot Club was a little hesitant. All the information they knew showed that the Earth Mother Goddess was Omibella. Even the God of War thought so, otherwise how could he trust the Earth Mother Goddess so much?

Audrey, the Justice, thought for a moment and asked on behalf of the others:

"Mr. 'Lover', why do you say that?"

Yu Jin looked around and spoke slowly:

"Because Omibella had already fallen in the Second Age." Leonard 'Star' asked subconsciously:

"Sure?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he began to regret asking such a question.

Yu Jin is a guaranteed angel. Since he dares to say so, he must be completely sure.

Ember smiled and said:
"Of course, I killed him myself."

For a moment, Alger, the Hanged Man, Audrey, and the others were speechless. It was as if they were struck by lightning. They were paralyzed in their positions like stone statues.

What do you mean by 'you killed him with your own hands'?
In other words, you were already an angel in the Second Age?
No, more than that!

Omibella was also an angel in the Second Age. To kill a Series 2 angel, one must be at least Sequence 1 or even the King of Angels!
If the Lover was already the King of Angels in the Second Age, then what is He now...

Alger, the Hanged Man, had a vague idea of ​​something, and glanced at the young man beside him with some difficulty.

"If Mother Earth is not Omibella, then who else could she be?"

'Sun' Derrick couldn't help but ask.

The Hermit Cattleya also felt that something was wrong. If Omibella had already died, it would be impossible for no one to have discovered it.

Yu Jin looked at Derrick and asked:

"I remember that Silver City has two god-level sealed objects, right?"

"Yes."

Sun Derrick didn't know why Yu Jin suddenly asked this, but he nodded obediently and explained:
"One is the 'Certificate of Glory', which is the crown once worn by the Giant King Almir. It was thanks to this seal that the City of Silver was able to resist the invasion of waves of monsters in the darkness during the Dark Ages."

"And the other divine seal is 'Gift of the Earth'..."

Derrick paused, his expression suddenly becoming somewhat uncertain.

Silver City once believed in giants, so it is not surprising that they have the seals used by giants. But if the "Proof of Glory" is the crown of the giant king Almir, then what about the "Gift of the Earth"?

The calm voice of Ember sounded in his ears:

"That's Omibella."

The Hanged Man and others felt their scalps go numb.

If they remembered correctly, the predecessor of Silver City was the Kingdom of Silver, and they believed in the giant queen 'Omibella'.

But now, Mr. Lover told them that Omibella fell in the Silver Country that believed in him. Even his remains were made into a seal and used by the Silver City for generations.

The Hermit Cattleya was a little bit unbelievable for a moment:

"Doesn't the God of War have any doubts at all?"

Yu Jin glanced at Cattleya and continued:

"In fact, Omybella's fall was prepared for Olmir."

"At that time, it was only the 'Ancient Sun God' of the Two-Path True God who personally grafted the fate, and the Goddess of Night also used the authority of 'Secrecy' to cover it all up. It's just that the 'Ancient Sun God' grew too fast and didn't use this move."

"Star" Leonard swallowed hard, cold sweat oozing out of his forehead.

As early as the Second Age, three "True Gods" had taken action against Omybella, who was still an angel. From this perspective, Omybella's death was not unjust, and it could even be said to be worth it - not all angels have this honor, and he is probably the only one.

If there was the cover of the "night" and the "ancient sun god" grafting fate, then all of this had a reasonable explanation. Even the giant king Almir couldn't find the abnormality, so how could the "god of war" who was only an angel at the time find it?
'Justice' Audrey murmured to herself:
"So, who is Mother Earth?"

Since it is certain that 'Omibella' is dead, the answer is actually not difficult to guess.

First, only adjacent pathways can be interchanged.

If He wants to take over Omybella's destiny and become the true God of the 'Earth' path, then He Himself must be of the 'Earth' or 'Moon' path.

In the Second Age, there were only three beings who had such prerequisites.

Lilith, the ancestor of the blood clan, and her two subordinate gods, the goddess of beauty and the goddess of life.

Both of them are still alive and are leading the vampires to this day.

The only exception was Lilith, the ancestor of the blood clan. She died because of the betrayal of the giant king. But this death was not complete, because the blood clan still believed that the ancestor of the blood clan was still alive, and she would occasionally respond to the prayers of the blood clan...

Thinking of this, Audrey the Justice asked hesitantly:
"The Mother Goddess of Earth is the ancestor of the blood race?"

Emlyn's eyes suddenly widened, and he instinctively sat up straight.

The moment he saw Mr. Lover nod and confirm Miss Justice's guess, his mind was suddenly in a mess with all kinds of thoughts.

The Tarot Club was silent for a long time. The Hermit Cattleya calmed down and asked carefully:

"Mr. 'Lover', are you involved in this war of gods?"

Yu Jin said calmly:
"I didn't contribute much."

Hearing Yu Jin's reply, the corner of the Hermit Cattleya's eye twitched, but in her heart she was certain of her guess - she originally thought that this battle between gods was a fair 2v2, so she was puzzled by the fall of the God of War. You are a great God of War, how could you lose so quickly in a one-on-one duel?
But now, she understood everything!

This is not a fair 2V2 at all, but a righteous four-on-one!

After figuring this out, Cattleya no longer doubted the strength of the 'God of War', and instead felt a vague sense of sympathy for him.

Facing the siege of four or even more true gods at the same time, it was not unfair for the God of War to lose!

As for what Yu Jin said about not putting in much effort, isn’t that just saying that he didn’t put in much effort?
After all, this was a righteous four-on-one fight, and it really didn't require much effort. On the contrary, the God of War actually persisted for a whole day under such circumstances. It should be said that he was worthy of the name of the God of War.
