Ring of Fate

Chapter 1043: Respective Impressions
"He appears to be taciturn, but actually likes to tease and joke in his heart, and occasionally even nag..."

The “Magician” lady felt inexplicably tense after hearing this, and some thoughts flashed through her mind instinctively:
Is this something I can listen to?
Is this something I can listen to?

If Gehrman Sparrow knew that I was listening to his inner thoughts, which were actually a little lively, would he shoot me in the head?
"This is my impression." Ms. Justice ended her recollection and summary.

Ms. Magician breathed a sigh of relief.

After she calmed down, she thought about it carefully and felt that if Gehrman Sparrow was really as Miss Justice described, then he probably, perhaps, would not use violence to eliminate those who knew his true identity.

After hearing what Ms. Justice had said, Mr. Star, who was sitting next to Lumian, leaned back in his chair, as if trying to relax himself.

He said in a low voice:

“He is a learned man, and this is not just reflected in the fact that he is a history graduate from the university;
“In the extraordinary events, he was very green at first, but soon became skilled and trustworthy;
"He is not used to getting too close to others and always keeps a certain distance. He seems to be afraid of losing and does not want to gain, but in fact, he is a person who attaches great importance to feelings. As time goes by, he will inevitably relax gradually, slowly integrate, and carefully establish friendships with others.
"He is peaceful but not introverted, can make jokes and has humorous language. He pays great attention to life and is willing to enjoy it, but does not want to waste it.

"He is very cautious. Perhaps it is the influence of the 'Fortune Teller' path. He can be called very cautious. If he encounters something that is not urgent and will not cause obvious harm for the time being, he will choose the most conservative response and leave first or wait for help. But if the disaster is very urgent and will affect many people, even if he himself is not strong enough, he is willing to stand up and take risks to try to solve it.
“He values ​​his brother and sister very much, and will be more relaxed in their presence, and will display some of the traits that Ms. ‘Justice’ just described;

"He is the best brother, the best brother, and the best colleague..."

When Mr. Star finished speaking, there was silence in the majestic palace for a long time, until all the Major Arcana cards except Ms. Magician turned their eyes to her.

Ms. Magician cleared her throat and said:
"You can read my impression of Gehrman Sparrow from the novel series "The Great Adventurer".

"If I really have to summarize..."

The angel at the "gate" paused for a moment, and his voice unconsciously became smaller:
“Cold, powerful, mysterious, and he’ll kill on the spot if he says the wrong thing.

"But, but he is very reliable. When I stay with him, I only worry about whether he can solve the problem for me. I don't have to worry about anything else."

The second half of your sentence is more like a tease than a statement... I can clearly hear that you are a little scared, but you still insist on teasing Gehrman Sparrow and yourself. Is this the nature of a writer? Well, from the "Adventurer" series of novels, it can be seen that you respect, fear, and even admire Gehrman Sparrow, but you still insist on making up scandals about Gehrman Sparrow... Lumian, the "Chariot" who was listening quietly, couldn't help but complain in his heart.

After quickly finishing her speech, Ms. Magician turned her gaze to Mr. Hanged Man diagonally opposite her, meaning, it's your turn.

Mr. Hanged Man had already prepared a plan:
“I haven’t had much contact with Mr. Fool in each of his identities. I haven’t even met some of them. I can only briefly talk about them:
“A powerful adventurer who is experienced, intelligent, and strong.

“He seems to have pretty good luck, too.

“It’s not as cold and hard as it looks.

“Be willing to listen to other people’s opinions and respect other people’s experiences.”

After Mr. Hanged Man finished speaking, Ms. Judge, who looked petite compared to the back of the chair, also talked about her own understanding of this aspect:

"My impression of Gehrman Sparrow mostly comes from Ms. Magician, so there is no need to repeat it.

"The person I have the most contact with is Dwayne Dantes. He is a mature, cultured, wealthy gentleman, but he is very mysterious and unusual things always happen around him.

"He said he was a playboy and liked beautiful women with different characteristics, but I didn't find that he had any real deep contact with any woman.

"Well, he is also very kind-hearted. He does charity work out of a genuine desire to help others. He is not only polite to the servants and maids around him, but he is also not condescending, and does not harbor arrogance or discrimination..."

This is also one side of Mr. Fool, especially some details, which can reflect his inner heart... Ms. Justice carefully memorized the contents of other Major Arcana cards so that she could summarize and refine them later.

Mr. Sun, a tall man in a simple white robe, followed up with:

"Powerful but not arrogant, ruthless but not cold-blooded.

"He practices all the right things. He is willing to take great risks to help people who are actually of no use to him. He is the light in the darkness, the leader walking in front, and the angel who protects everyone."

The description was more religious, and the emotions were more extreme and pure... As expected of the Pope of the Church of Fools and a member of the Six-Man Council of the New Silver City... Lumian could clearly hear some differences.

Ms. Hermit pushed her glasses and said:
"A great adventurer who can always make the most appropriate response to unexpected situations.

"He was also missing something, and he would gaze at the setting sun. At that time, I could really feel his loneliness. What he wanted to grasp seemed to be very far away and out of reach.

"Also, a mysterious, powerful, and trustworthy companion."

The original Major Arcana cards of the "Tarot Club" have been finished, leaving only the two new members.

Even though the figure was blurry, it was still clear that it was a female Tank. Lumian thought for a moment and said calmly:
“I have never really come into contact with any of Mr. Fool’s identities in the real world. My impressions of them all come from the information you provided. I can only speak from my encounters with certain dream characters and Mr. Fool in the dream city.”

He was silent for a second, then expressed his first impression:
"Guardian."

Mr. Xingxing, who was sitting next to him, suddenly spoke up, as if to sigh or add:

"A guardian against danger and madness."

Lumian nodded.

He agreed with this description, especially after knowing that the spiritual imprint of Tianzun would never be erased and would never disappear.

This addition also resonated and touched the other big names, and everyone fell into a new silence.

A short moment passed, and Lumian expressed his other impressions:

"Gentle, kind, brother, teacher, friend, a man with stories, a god with humanity."

After a pause, Lumian continued:

"He attached great importance to family and friends. He probably wanted to return to the era to which he truly belonged, to his hometown that was buried in history. He was lonely and often sad and painful because of this. Only relatives and friends who were recognized by him could help him find the meaning of life.

"On the one hand, I am detached, but on the other hand, I pay more attention to the feeling of life and am willing to experience the beauty..."

Lumian paused as he spoke, because the more he spoke, the more he thought about Aurore being in the same situation. He was worried that he might confuse some of Aurore's behaviors with those of Mr. Fool, which would affect the Major Arcana's summary of Gehrman Sparrow's image.

It was indeed like this...Ms. Justice felt that some of her private speculations and judgments after she learned the truth about "time travel" were confirmed.

As she memorized, she thought that the image of Gehrman Sparrow was more down-to-earth, more detailed, and more complete.

At this time, Ms. "Moderation", who was unable to speak due to her own sequence restrictions, showed the paper she had been writing on.

On the paper were words in ancient Feysac:
“My impression is:

“Brave, decisive, growing very fast, becoming more and more reliable and powerful.

"In addition, you must be gentle, polite, kind, rational, have a sense of justice, pursue fairness, have enough sympathy for those in suffering and poverty, be willing to help them, and have compassion."

After reading the contents of Ms. Temperance's paper, Ms. Justice began to think quickly.

After a while, she said slowly:

“Currently, the public’s mainstream impression of Gehrman Sparrow is concentrated on several labels:

"Great adventurer, cold and powerful, angel of salvation, agent of Mr. Fool, pirate killer.

"We don't need to change these for now. What we need to do is to make these labels richer and more detailed, and reflect the complexity of human nature."

——The impression that Gehrman Sparrow was a "madman" that existed in the early days basically faded after the Church of Fools promoted the matter of salvation, and was no longer believed by most people.

Ms. Justice continued:
“We are now beginning to summarize and unify our understanding.

"The first word I want to bring up is, 'guardian.'

All the Major Arcana cards, including Lumian, have no objection to this.

Just like that, after repeated discussions, everyone present had a unified understanding of Gehrman Sparrow's image:
"Strong, cautious, mysterious origin, loves money but is generous, gentle at heart, sympathetic to the world, redeems suffering, values ​​family and feelings, always misses his hometown, and is Mr. Fool's agent."

The Major Arcana cards did not add all the details to make the description richer, because that would be inconvenient to spread and easy to be misinterpreted. It is enough for people to have the corresponding impression.

The Magician thought for a moment and said:

“I think we can also add that he has a lot of inner activities and likes to chatter, tease and joke in his heart.

"It's going to be interesting in terms of the text of the novel, but it's also the real Gehrman Sparrow."

"Okay." Ms. Justice looked at Ms. Magician and said with a smile, "Then I'll ask you to finish writing "The Great Adventurer 7" within two weeks."

“Okay.” The Magician’s body froze for a second, then she forced a smile and said, “I’ve even thought of a slogan. Um, ‘Want to see a more vivid and human Gehrman Sparrow?’”
