Mystery: When the Fool Meets the Masked Fool

Chapter 490 Where can I find the wife I'm missing, Fool?

"Let's begin the gathering," Klein said, officially commencing the Tarot session.

After speaking, he relaxed and leaned back in his chair, looking at the other members with a smile.

Leonard looked around and, seeing that the other members remained silent, tentatively spoke up:

"Based on the intelligence gathered so far... well, there's really no need to gather any more information, the whole world has probably already seen it."

"In short, a divine war did indeed take place. It is certain that the goddess of night, the god of war, the earth goddess, and a newly emerged god called the God of the Negative World appeared in the skies above Backlund."

"Then there are two more that are just guesses, but not certain. They are the Demon Lord and Emperor Roselle." As he spoke, he bowed slightly to Roselle, who was not far away.

Russell nodded in agreement.

Leonard continued:

"As for the outcome, I think everyone knows it. What are your thoughts on this?"

This……

Several people looked at each other.

What else can I say? The goddess is awesome?
Are the senior deacons of the Church of the Night coming to us seeking recognition?

“I can’t understand why that happened. The Earth Mother and the War God, mother and son, joined forces and were defeated by the Night Goddess…” The hermit, Cattleya, did not hide her doubts. “I suspect that the Night Goddess joined forces with those two newly appeared Gods of the World and the Demon Lord.”

If it were a three-on-two situation, this result wouldn't be hard to understand.
Alger snapped out of his thoughts and said carefully, "I received intelligence that Feneport has already defected right after the war of the gods ended."

"What if the Fool suddenly falls from the sky and knocks the God of War to the ground with a slap?" Padmon suddenly offered a new idea at this moment.

"So that's how it is. Only by returning can the secret be revealed. Perhaps the Earth Mother is Mr. Fool." Xing stretched and immediately realized the truth.

"It turns out that Mr. Fool had been lurking behind the God of War as the God of War's mother all along, and betrayed the God of War on the spot during the God War."

Xing and Padoma started discussing the details.

"I kind of want to see Mr. Fool in women's clothing."

"Mr. Fool is the most powerful Faceless Man, turning into a woman is a piece of cake for him, isn't it?"

"That makes sense, that is, to directly change one's appearance."

"There must be some kind of covert assistance."

"The night has dried up too."

“You’ve missed one more. Your Mr. Demon was also in the Astral Plane at the time,” Rosell chimed in at this point.

"Oh oh oh!"

With a true God as a guarantor, the credibility of the whole matter has risen to another level.

"I didn't expect you all to find out. Since you already know, I won't hide it from you anymore. Actually, the God of War is the son of the Fool. As the most powerful diviner in the world, the Fool foresaw the birth of the God of War thousands of years ago, and so he seduced the God of War's father..."

Just then, they heard the long-lost tapping sound again.

That was Mr. Fool tapping on the table.

Justice, Audrey, and the others turned to the head of the bronze table, waiting to hear what answer Mr. Fool could give.

The Fool Klein's face was obscured by the gray mist, making it impossible to see his expression as he said, "I can give you some hints."

"Anxious."

"Definitely."

Xing and Padma were still whispering to each other.

Klein glanced left and right, then ignored him and continued, "Why does the Earth Church like to recruit vampires as believers?"

"The earth and the moon are two adjacent paths."

"Legend has it that during the Second Age, the ancient goddess Lilith, who represented the moon, perished because of the betrayal of the giant king."

"He occasionally responds to the prayers of vampires, and does not seem to have completely passed away."

It's called a hint, but it's actually an explicit indication; the answer is obvious after that.

"The true identity of the Earth Mother Goddess is Lilith, the progenitor of the vampires!"

Emlyn felt his head explode.

His eyes widened suddenly, and he instinctively sat up straight, his mind a jumble of thoughts.

In his eyes, the palace, which had been shrouded in gray mist, suddenly became bright.

In this dazzling light, Emlyn's blood-red eyes revealed a tangible joy, and his voice echoed ethereally in his mind:

"I did not betray the vampire clan..."

At this moment, they no longer had any doubts about the true identity of the 'Earth Mother Goddess'.

“Thank you for the tip.” Justice Audrey immediately bowed to Mr. Fool.

After the others expressed their gratitude, they all looked toward Emlyn, the moon, which remained in its original position.

Look at Mr. Moon, who got into the wrong bridal sedan chair but married the right person, entered the wrong church but believed in the right God.

The Mother Goddess is the Ancestor, and the Ancestor is the Mother Goddess. It turns out I've never changed my faith. No wonder I still habitually go to the Harvest Church even without the priest giving me any psychological suggestions. It's because my intuition tells me that the Mother Goddess is the Ancestor!
So, the progenitor favored me, making me the savior of the vampires… Emlyn’s mind raced with thoughts, trying to justify his previous feelings of guilt.

With a plausible explanation, he began to believe he was the most devout vampire!
I am the progenitor of double faith at the same time!
That's right, I am the most devout vampire.

Can anyone else do this? To reach this level, to double the faith in the progenitor in one go!

That's right, he was the only savior they chose.

“Mr. Moon, perhaps it won’t be long before you become the Archbishop of the Backlund Diocese of the Earth Church.” Alicia joined the conversation with a smile. “At that time, those of your kind who once mocked your faith in the Earth Mother Goddess may all line up to come before you and receive your baptism.”

"After that, I might have to address you as Archbishop Emlyn."

Upon hearing this, Emlyn's mood instantly brightened, and he couldn't help but slightly raise his chin.

Only Xing and Padomao seemed disappointed.

"So the Earth Mother Goddess isn't Mr. Fool after all?"

"So who's going to fill the gap in our 'wife fool' category?"

After discussing this matter, the members of the Tarot Club fell into a brief silence, unsure of what to say.

Seeing that no one spoke, Otto also voiced the question he wanted to ask that day.

He consulted the Fool Klein, and then conjured a pattern.

That's the symbol of the Command Seals on the back of John's right hand.

"Does anyone know this?"

Eh! Audrey was shocked. Her first thought was that Otto was also a Master, and the box had ended up on her.

But soon, she noticed that Otto didn't have a Command Seal on the back of his hand. If he were truly a Master, even if he had come to the Gray Mist, he should have a Command Seal on the back of his hand. Just like her, she could feel the Command Seal on the back of her right hand, but she had worn gloves to cover it up today.

It wasn't that she distrusted her fellow tarot readers; if anyone asked, she wouldn't mind taking off her gloves. It was just that she had been wearing gloves for the past two days and had gotten into the habit of not taking them off before the tarot meeting.

Command Seals? Roselle recognized what it was at a glance and immediately looked at Serres.

Klein also felt that it looked familiar, as if he had seen this thing on the internet in his previous life.

Serres immediately pointed at Klein: "This is a gift bestowed by your Mr. Fool."

"The great Fool bestows divine grace..." Serres repeated the lines spoken by Amon. Most of the Tarot Club members were greatly shocked, never expecting the Fool to be so generous.

This is a wish of godlike stature!

Only Klein sensed that something was amiss.

brother?

He always felt that this job title was something was wrong.

In the Source Castle, he possessed an intuition no less than that of an angel, which made him quite certain of his judgment.

brother...elder brother...

Oh no! My alternate account!
He suddenly looked at Serres.

Dashachun, what are you doing!
But Serres just looked around and didn't make eye contact with him at all.

Xing then immediately showed his right hand: "I...I...I am the Master."

It's here; it's a suicide truck.

Audrey blinked, hesitating whether to reveal her identity as well.

It's okay, after all, they are all friends and partners from the Tarot Club.

Moreover, everyone can see Xing's character; she's so naive that she can be lured away by a lollipop shaped like a trash can, so there's nothing to be wary of.

"Oh dear, why didn't the lovely True Self Angel receive an invitation?" Alicia looked at Mr. Fool and said reproachfully, "I'm your angel! How can you bear to leave me out of such a fun activity? I'll cry!"

Surprisingly, the priestess was the first to make a move. Interesting. Fowles, now a spectator, immediately started watching the drama unfold.

Hugh glanced at his friend first, then immediately understood what she meant and started watching the drama unfold.

Klein's brain worked at high speed for a moment, quickly coming up with a solution.

He casually raised his hand and pointed to Serres not far away.

“Every single ‘invitation’ was issued by Mr. Devil; it didn’t pass through my hands. You can go ask him for it.”

Klein used his skill to shift the blame, and the effect was outstanding.

Serres immediately rebuked Klein with his eyes.

What? You're actually trying to shift the blame! Even though I'm the one who threw this blame at you, don't you think you made any mistakes at all?

However, resolving the issue with Serres is much simpler.

"There's nothing we can do. Mr. Fool only gives a limited number of invitations. It's already a shady deal that I was able to leave two and a half for our Tarot Club."

"Mr. Devil, what does 'two and a half' mean?" Little Sun asked, not understanding.

“Since Mr. Tower’s command seal is in the hands of his crew, it can only be considered half a seal,” Serres explained.

“I can give up my crew’s Master status,” Otto said. “I know his wish, and I can help him fulfill it myself.”

John was genuinely uneasy about leaving this thing in his hands.

After learning how to use Command Seals, he did consider replacing John as his Master and summoning Kallen.

But then I thought about it.

Why bother?
Why bother?
"So you want it? I think transferring Command Seals should be possible," Otto asked.

"No need, I was just kidding." Alicia shook her head. "If someone loses their rights because of me, I, being the emotional person I am, would definitely be so upset that I wouldn't be able to sleep at night."

"Thanks anyway." She winked.

"Speaking of which, if there are two and a half, then who is the other one?" Hugh asked curiously at this moment.

A few seconds of silence fell over the room before Audrey finally raised her hand.

"it's me."

Alicia sighed, feigning regret.

"Sigh, it seems that in Mr. Devil's eyes, Miss Justice and Miss Emperor are more charming than me." Then she changed the subject, "But that's understandable, after all, they are beautiful girls who even I would be attracted to."

After saying that, she changed the subject, saying, "Since it's a war, why don't Miss Justice and Miss Emperor form an alliance?"

“I have no objection.” Xing nodded immediately.

Audrey also thought it was fine.

“Actually, even if you’re not a Master, you can still participate in this war, right?” Alger suggested a new idea at this moment. “There shouldn’t be a setting like ‘only Servants can attack Servants’ or anything like that.”

“Indeed, theoretically speaking, you could go and help, and it’s not certain that all the Heroic Spirits can defeat you.” Serres flipped through a small booklet, nodding frequently. “But are you sure you want to come? You might die.”

"After all, one of the Masters summoned a Servant that was indeed far beyond the norm."

"How much is it excessive?" Emlyn asked, slightly conceited after just confirming his status as a savior.

"It's probably so extreme that even Mr. Fool would have to get involved himself," Serres explained.

"Damn it, don't you dare wear that vest on!" Klein immediately stopped him with a look.

The others were even more shocked.

Emlyn immediately wilted.

“Mr. Fool… this… I… um… then I admit that He is stronger than me.”

He tried to save face, but still subconsciously used the third-person pronoun that represented God.

"So who exactly is it that could make Mr. Fool personally intervene?" Gadriya, bursting with curiosity, finally couldn't help but ask.

“Well, to put it bluntly is against the rules,” Serres tapped the booklet in his hand. “But what is not widely known is that biased refereeing is the norm in the Holy Grail War.”

“I’ll tell you one more thing, something that the true gods of most major churches probably already know,” Serres said.

Rosell probably guessed what he was going to say; last night, He too sensed the return of that "god" from the shadows of order.

“You should know this person, right? Or you should be quite familiar with him,” Serres said to Derrick.

"I know him?" Derrick pointed to himself, somewhat puzzled.

“Yes, you know Him,” Serres said. “After all, when you first joined the Tarot Club, you talked about Him every day.”

Little Sun, you used to talk about it every day? Really...?

Klein had a bad feeling.

Serres turned the booklet in his hand over to show it to everyone, and focused his attention on Derrick.

"Look, this is it."

Everyone looked over; it was written in a language they had never seen before, but could understand:

Class: Rider.

Strength: EX, Magic Power: EX, Endurance: EX, Luck: A, Agility: A++, Noble Phantasm: EX.

Noble Phantasm: A Noble Phantasm derived from the concept of "the creator of all things, an all-knowing and all-powerful god," with its specific form and abilities unknown.

Mount: Amon

Heroic Spirit Name: Ancient Sun God.
