Secret: I can play two paths

Chapter 153 Klein regrets being Mr. Fool

All kinds of doubts lingered in Star's mind, making him feel a little uneasy.

But he couldn't explain clearly what the reason or change was that caused the Dusk Hermits, where Adam worked, to release the commission ahead of schedule.

Star had no choice but to put the matter aside for the time being and then think about how to answer Alger.

Because at the previous Tarot meeting, he revealed the news that the King and the Prime Minister decided not to retaliate against the Feysac Empire on the east coast of Balam in the short term, and proposed to select officials through public examinations.

In the subsequent Tarot Club, Miss Justice also took the initiative to help Star prove the accuracy of the news.

In addition, Ghost Rider has done something like this this week and has not yet been traced.

I'm afraid that in the eyes of the Hanged Man, Star is already a very powerful figure in Backlund.

This made Star not know what to say for a moment.

If I refuse, it will damage my lofty image; if I agree, I am only relying on the information revealed from my omniscient perspective after watching the plot before, and if I really take this task, I will be exposed.

Simply put, Star felt that he, like Mr. Fool, had to endure the consequences of his pretense with tears.

Fortunately, he quickly thought of a solution:
He can outsource this task to Miss Justice~
Then Miss Justice could outsource this task to Fors and Xio.

If this is passed down layer by layer, there will be no pressure on Star's side.

Since Miss Justice seemed to still owe him some "compensation", she could use this mission to make up for it all at once.

Otherwise, at the literary salon with Miss Justice, Star wouldn't have the heart to keep looking at her and thinking about how to repay his "debt".

Miss Justice seemed to be really thinking about where to buy extraordinary materials for Star.

"After all, this is what we owed you since the very first Tarot meeting."

She told Star in a serious tone at the time.

Hearing this, Sta didn't expect that she would be thinking about this matter for so long just because he mentioned it casually.

He felt a little ashamed, but now maybe he could help her repay the favor through this mission?
At least I can put down a burden in my heart and feel relieved?
Star felt embarrassed to let Miss Justice always think about these trivial matters, making the relationship between the two colleagues seem like it was mixed with some complicated debts and favors.

Of course, this outsourcing cannot be directly announced at the Tarot Club, and maintaining one’s personal image is something that must be paid attention to at all times.

Even if Mr. Fool, who is also strong on the outside but weak on the inside, knows about this, it won't work.

He is not like Xiao Ke, who is just an "empty shell".

His py capital is to win over many parties and make others owe him favors.

Yeah, so he really has a lot of energy…

Star answered the Hanged Man without any shame:

"Small problem, leave it to me."

When outsourcing the task to Miss Justice, I have to disguise it as a training task for Miss Justice...

Maybe I can sell some favors again.

No, didn’t you say that you wanted Miss Justice to owe fewer favors and have fewer worries?
Well, then just treat it as a simple act of kindness and give her a chance to pay back the debt?

Can helping to pay off a debt be considered as owing someone a favor?
Star sorted out these thoughts and then said:

"Mr. Hanged Man, please introduce the pirate general to me."

With some solemnity, Alger the Hanged Man said:

"He is also a Sequence 6 Beyonder of the Sailor Path, a Wind-loving One. He also possesses a magical item, which can also be called a sealed item. He is quite cunning and cruel."

As for reminding the Wheel of Fortune to be careful, that is a doubt about the ability of Mr. Fool's followers.

I believe that if things go wrong, Mr. Wheel of Fortune will seek help from other followers of Mr. Fool.

Fortunately, this time I paid a price to ask one of Mr. Fool's followers to take action. Mr. Fool should also pay attention to this matter in the future...

Thinking of this, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Klein and said:
“Mr. Fool, can I ask your followers to help me at a critical moment? I will pay a price that interests you.”

After all, the Wheel of Fortune is Mr. Fool's follower. If you want him and other followers to take action on this matter, you have to satisfy Mr. Fool first.

Alger thought so.

But Klein was panicking. "Don't talk nonsense. The premise of this matter is that Star agrees..." Klein used complaints to ease his emotions.

Mr. Fool can only command himself, okay?

And he probably knew what the price Alger was talking about was.

But even if he gets a lot of Emperor Roselle's diaries, it won't be enough to offset the price Mr. Fool paid for asking Sta to help, right?

It’s very expensive to ask Star to help!

At this time, he was a little overwhelmed, not knowing whether he should agree to Alger's request.

Like Star, Mr. Fool felt that he was about to suffer the consequences of his pretense.

Paying thousands of gold pounds in exchange for a bunch of Roselle's hunting diaries or something...

I don't want to do this kind of thing!
He regretted being Mr. Fool.

But there is no point in panicking, we must find a solution.

His mind suddenly changed, and he decided to express his refusal in a way that would suit Mr. Fool.

Klein smiled slightly and said:
"The premise is that my other followers happen to be in Backlund."

This sentence means that Star's strength is not enough to hunt Qilingos head-on for the time being, and he needs the help of Mr. Fool's other followers.

As for Star, if he could fight against a pirate general, he would take up this commission, and it would be the price that the Hanged Man would pay.

It is possible that Mr. Fool could even receive a favor from Mr. Hanged Man and obtain some of Emperor Roselle's diaries.

Of course, this lie that was told at the spur of the moment must have many loopholes.

For example, if Star showed such powerful strength, wouldn't it seem that Mr. Fool's judgment was inaccurate?
But that will wait until later.

Should I pay Stacey some hush money?

It was as if he saw thousands of gold pounds waving goodbye to him. Klein was speechless for a moment and could only curl up the corners of his mouth.

God damn it, why did he pretend to be Mr. Fool in front of Senior Wheel of Fortune?

Fortunately, Star had an idea in advance, and at this time he smiled and helped to cover up the lie:
“Yes, without the help of Mr. Fool’s other followers, I am not sure I can definitely take him down, and I am afraid it will be difficult to finish him off afterwards.”

Of course, Xiao Ke is not strong enough and can accept missing this opportunity.

But Star will definitely not let go of this huge profit from Qilingos.

With Will as his partner and knowing how to impress Mr. Azik, Star was just smoothing things over for the clueless Mr. Fool.

Putting aside the 30000-pound bounty, the "Creeping Hunger" that Qilingos possesses is made from the extraordinary characteristics of the "Shepherd", and is indeed a magical item that is essential for murder and robbery at home.

The value of the wriggling hunger alone is enough to make Star want to attack Zilingos!
Not to mention that it also has the "Faceless Man" extraordinary characteristics that he needs.

After the "player"'s skill bar is filled with some of the practical skills above, they can be sold to Xiao Ke.

One fish, many meals!
Just as Star was calculating how much he would gain from this operation, Klein, who was sitting at the head of the group, felt a chill on his back.

He always felt that his wallet was in trouble...

Klein was somewhat depressed and wanted to wait for the Tarot Club to end.

I don’t know what price he will have to pay to get rid of the Qi Lingos matter after this Tarot meeting.

Hey, I finally got more than 10,000 pounds, now I have to spend money again to avoid disaster?

The God of Poverty sighed inwardly, feeling as if he were carrying some kind of curse.

It is obvious that Star can earn a lot of gold pounds.

When it comes to him, he becomes the one who collects diaries.

Just because he lied that he was a god?
And the gods are not interested in mundane things like money?

In addition, I have to pay the price for this matter and lie a thousand times...

At this moment, Klein could only raise the corners of his mouth to hide the depression in his heart...
