Ring of Fate

Chapter 717 The Divided Tamara Family
After Yebus said the number "0-05", he looked at Franka and Janna with great anticipation, hoping to see expressions of shock and fear on their faces.

Judging from the strength shown by this team of extraordinary people, they should be very clear about what a "level 0" seal represents and what it means!
That is a horrible thing that can destroy the entire Trier and even the entire world!
The higher the number of the "0" level seal, the more dangerous it is.

Now, we are going to discuss "0-05"!
Franka and Janna did show some surprise and curiosity, but that was not what Jebus expected to see.

They didn't even respond to Jebus, but turned their heads and looked at Lumian.

Although they did not see and did not dare to see the specific content, they all heard Lumian say that the monster child Ludwig "stole" a piece of sealed material from the Church of Knowledge and gave it to Lumian as a transaction reward.

That information belongs to "0-01"!
“0-05”? Lumian raised an eyebrow.

As far as he knew, in the more ancient times, seals should not have been numbered. Even if they were, they were the individual actions of different churches. It was not until the end of the Fourth Age or the beginning of the Fifth Age that the seven major churches that truly ruled the world jointly established the current rules for dividing seals, and used them to number those under their control.

Among them, because of the huge harm caused by "0" and "1" level seals, the Orthodox Churches have reached an agreement to inform each other of the general situation, unify the numbering, and never repeat them.

In other words, there is no possibility that the "Eternal Sun" Church has a "0-05" seal and the "Goddess of Night" Church also has a "0-05" seal.

In the whole world, only the "Wishing Magic Lamp" can be called "0-05"!
When the seven major churches first numbered the "0" level seals they owned, they would definitely sort them according to factors such as the degree of danger, the time of appearance, and the special nature of the seals. Those obtained later would be named according to the order in which they were sealed.

In this way, the dozens of "0" level sealed objects in front will most likely follow the rule that the earlier the number, the higher the degree of danger and the more special the nature. The fact that "0-05" can be ranked fifth among so many "0" level sealed objects is enough to illustrate its horror and status!

Of course, according to this rule, the "0" level seals with the last number are not necessarily weaker than those with earlier numbers.

Lumian looked at Jebus and said in a tone that was not too exaggerated:

"'0-05'? The fifth most terrifying thing among all '0' level sealed objects?"

"Yes." Jebus's desire to show off was finally satisfied a little.

Lumian asked curiously:

"Its name is 'Wishing Lamp', does that mean you can make a wish to it?"

At this moment, Lumian felt an anticipation in his heart that was even stronger than his expression.

Jebus nodded solemnly:
"Yes, it can grant the holder any ten wishes."

Before Lumian could ask further questions, Jebus added:

"But as far as I know, the fulfillment of those wishes was always in a very distorted form, or with extremely terrible consequences. Moreover, no one who once possessed the magic lamp had a good ending. Russell Gustav might have died because of this."

Hearing this, Lumian fell silent.

"'0-05' once belonged to Emperor Roselle?" Franca glanced at Lumian and asked.

Jebus answered without hesitation:
"Correct."

"What now? Do you have any clues about '0-05'?" Franka asked with great interest.

Jebus was happy to share:

"Yes, it should be with the leader of the secret organization 'Elemental Dawn'.

"The leader is suspected to be Roselle's eldest daughter, Bernadette."

"Wow!" Franca made a sound of admiration and relief, as if she had heard that an old friend's children were doing well after his death.

Although after the sea prayer ceremony, she and Lumian knew that Emperor Roselle's eldest daughter Bernadette was still alive, invented fairy tale magic, and was closely related to the Major Arcana card "The Hermit" of the "Tarot Club", they did not know the specific situation of the other party.

Now, she was surprised to hear that Bernadette had become the leader of a secret organization.

Franka had heard of the "Dawn of Elements" before. She knew that they were mainly engaged in the research of occult knowledge and extraordinary alchemy, and were fighting against another secret organization pursuing knowledge, the "Moss Ascetic Order". They were mainly active in the Intis region, the central and southern regions, and the sea.

"It's normal for the emperor's relics to be with his eldest daughter." Lumian was also somewhat happy for Emperor Roselle.

Franka continued to ask about Jebus with great interest:
"Have you planned how to deal with Bernadette?"

Jebus shook his head slowly:
“We don’t have the corresponding capabilities yet, which is one of the reasons why we cooperated with ‘Man in the Mirror’.

"Only by practicing the truth and pleasing the truth can the 'Overseers' obtain more gifts to fight against Bernadette and her men."

Controlling the government and practicing "truth" to varying degrees is a ritual to pray for blessings? Well, Jebus himself said that this is a ritual to please "truth"... Their rituals for obtaining blessings are different from those of other evil cults. They are not based on blood sacrifices, but rather pay more attention to the influence, utilization and transformation of order... Lumian summarized a major feature of the "School of Truth" from Jebus's words.

He thought for two seconds and said:

"'Overseer' is both a position and a name?

"What sequence is equivalent to the potion pathway?"

"Sequence 4, just obtained divinity." Jebus answered concisely. It was unclear whether he was unwilling to talk about this or he didn't know much about it.

Lumian then said:
"We have already understood the philosophy and purpose of your school. What is the purpose of 'The Man in the Mirror'?"

Jebus thought about it and said:

“They also want to open the seal of the ancient city underground. Only by removing the seal can they enter the depths of the special mirror world where they originally lived and find something of special significance, but that has nothing to do with us.

“They have also been smuggling more ‘Mirror People’ out to replace the original owners.

"I don't know if they have other purposes."

"Besides Moran Avni, which other 'people in the mirror' do you know?" Franca did not hide her desire to know the answer.

Jebus shook his head:
"Ever since we reached a cooperation agreement with Moran Avni, he had the other 'People in the Mirror' move to another location and change their identities, so he is the only one who can contact them."

"How did you find out that Moran Avini was the 'Man in the Mirror'?" Lumian sought for other clues.

Jebus laughed:
"Our 'School of Truth' was established with some members of the Tamara family as its foundation. Several of them had long suspected that there were problems with Moran Avini and some other members of the clan. After receiving the revelation of truth, they completely confirmed this suspicion."

"Which path did Moran Avini's original owner take?" Lumian frowned.

Jebus did not help Moran Avni to hide:
"He is from the Path of Judgment. Now he not only possesses the power of the Path of Judgment, but can also use some powers related to the mirror."

"Are there any members of the 'Judgment' branch of the Tamara family who neither follow the 'Truth' nor are they replaced by the 'Man in the Mirror'?" Lumian asked further.

"Yes, they broke with our 'School of Truth' and have been trying to deal with us." Jebus answered truthfully.

This... The Tamara family first split into two branches, the "Judgment" and the "Apprentice", and then the "Judgment" branch split into three parts: one that believed in the "truth", one that was replaced by the "Mirror Man", and one that adhered to the original tradition... But the "Apprentice" branch of the Tamara family mixed with the Witch Cult, and it was more likely to be replaced by the "Mirror Man". That branch also split? Why is your Tamara family always splitting... The Tamara family is in danger of being replaced by the "Mirror Man" regardless of the branch? Is this due to some unsolved secrets of the Fourth Epoch? Lumian combined the information he had and made an analysis and speculation.

"What sequence does Moran Avini roughly correspond to?" Seeing that Lumian remained silent, Janna asked for help.

“Sequence 5.” Yebusi answered Janna’s question with a smile.

Sequence 5 “Punishment Knight” ah... Franka has the guidance of the Major Arcana card “Judgment” Lady, and is very familiar with the “Arbitrator” path.

Sequence 9 is the "Arbitrator", Sequence 8 is the "Sheriff", Sequence 7 is the "Interrogator", and Sequence 6 is the "Judge".

The "Punishment Knight" who has mirror magic and abilities related to the mirror world... Lumian looked at Jebus and asked with a smile:

"You are neither the 'Man in the Mirror' nor the 'Witch'. Why can you freely enter and exit the mirror world and not be affected by certain dangers there?"

Jebus pointed to the glass cuff nail on his cuff:

"This is an item given to us by Moran Avini. It allows us to enter and exit the mirror world. We can use the connections between mirrors to travel back and forth without being attracted to other mirrors.

"It can be used five more times now."

Very good, from now on it will be ours... well, let's call it "mirror button"... At this moment, Franka even thought of the name of the cufflinks.

Lumian nodded and said:

"If your abilities correspond to the potion path, what is Sequence 9 called?"

Because there was a high possibility of a conflict with the "School of Truth" next, Lumian did not miss the opportunity to learn about the other party's extraordinary abilities.

Jebus smiled proudly:

"It's 'broker'.

"We are the gray between white and black, the fog between light and darkness, and the bridge between order and shadow!"

"Speak human language..." Franka muttered softly.

Lumian smiled and asked, not being fooled:
"What specific abilities does the 'Broker' have?"
