Simultaneous Transmigration: A Fateful Traveler's Journey Begins in Mystery

He glanced up slightly at the darkening sky and said decisively.

"I'll go to the newspaper office in a bit, and as a police officer, I'll ask them to put the Tarot Club on tomorrow's front page."

“It’ll be up for at least a week,” Moraine said, holding up one finger.

“Yes, yes, yes, at least a week.” Leonard nodded frantically.

Demigod...

The one in front of me is at least a demigod...

The only one capable of killing a demigod so easily must be another demigod.

He absolutely cannot die here; he must bring back the information about the Tarot Society.

This is beyond the capacity of the city of Tingen to resolve.

"Great! Very energetic!" Moraine patted Leonard on the shoulder again in admiration. "I have high hopes for you."

"Of course, of course."

“Then, as a reward for you,” Moraine said with a smile, “now say the name of my lord.”

"Okay, okay... huh?" Leonard's nodding suddenly stopped.

Leonard immediately made a face that looked worse than if he had eaten shit.

"This...this isn't right..."

“I am not qualified to recite His name…”

“This is a reward for you,” Moraine said, looking at Leonard with encouraging eyes, “so don’t feel embarrassed.”

Leonard felt his face must be covered in sweat right now.

Judging from Morion's expression, he was now absolutely certain that the "Mr. Fool" whom the other person believed in was a real person.

He heard it; Morion had just addressed the true creator by his very name.

Although Leonard didn't know who "Grisha" was, it wasn't hard to guess from the context.

This means that Moraine is very likely under the protection of another true god.

It's probably "Mr. Fool".

A true God who can rival the true Creator, a truly great being!

Now, to recite the name of an evil god without any protection means to hand over one's life to the other party.

The other party could crush him at any time; it wouldn't be much more difficult than crushing an ant.

"Come on, read this."

Morion read it aloud:

"The Fool who does not belong to this era, the mysterious master above the gray fog, the King of Yellow and Black who controls good luck."

Leonard still wanted to get away with it, saying in Rune's words:

"Does not belong to..."

“In Ancient Hermes,” Moraine emphasized.

"Okay," Leonard resigned himself to his fate.

"The Fool who does not belong to this era, the mysterious master above the gray fog, the King of Yellow and Black who controls good luck."

He repeated it in Old Hermes.

“Very good,” Morion put his hand down. “Keep up the good work, and you might have a place in the Tarot Club in the future.”

"Thank you." Leonard forced a smile that looked more like a grimace.

Morion then looked at Klein.

"And you, you read it too."

Klein, on the other hand, was much more relaxed, pointing to himself.

"Do I have to read it too?"

"Correct."

“Very good,” Moraine nodded with an inscrutable expression, and said to Leonard, “I allow you to report to the Goddess of Night about me, but only to me personally. As for other things, you should know what you should and shouldn’t say.”

“Remember this,” Moraine glanced at Klein and said to Leonard, “The Great Fool is watching you.”

With the deaths of Mr. Z and Butis, and their spirits being devoured by Morion's swarm, Morion also discovered some problems.

This expansion of the field is actually a bit superficial.

First is Mr. Z's decree: "The reality here is weakened, and the spirit world is strengthened."

Whether the spirit world is strengthened or not has little impact on Morion; the main issue is the "weakening of reality."

This allows him to better extend his "birth realm" onto "reality".

Secondly, there's Mr. Z's behavior of cutting up space.

Mr. Z cut off this space primarily to ensure that the three people present would not escape, and also to avoid the battle making too much noise and attracting the attention of the local Night Watchers, Punishers, and Mechanical Heart.

This could be considered a bargain for Morion.

Just as Fukuguro Megumi's incomplete domain requires the "squeezing" of caves, stadiums, or other domains to be used, Morion, who was opening his domain for the first time, was also not proficient and only succeeded in opening his domain under the squeezing of this space.

Moraine doesn't believe in coincidences, especially in a world where "fate" truly exists.

He glanced at the two night watchmen present and smiled.

If we say that Boutis died because he couldn't escape when he first saw him, it's more accurate to say that he was just incredibly "unlucky".

Not only did he provide Morion with the conditions to expand his domain, but he also lost several opportunities to leave the domain because of Mr. Z.

He's right, a single field can't confine him.

If it weren't for Mr. Z, or if he had dealt with Mr. Z directly from the beginning, he could have left the domain long ago.

After that, he was able to deal with Morion, who had the ability to use spells to melt away spells, very easily.

Even more surprisingly, he didn't bring the "Old Box" he always carried with him this time.

Although the reasons are sufficient and convincing enough.

But with so many coincidences combined, it's no longer a coincidence.

He was so unlucky.

And if we were to say who best represents "misfortune" in this world...

Finally, Moraine's gaze settled on Leonard.

It seems that even though the call was interrupted halfway through, "Night Express" still got through.

The Queen of Calamity and Fear heard his prayer.

Therefore, the outcome of this battle already reveals the goddess's attitude.

If Morion lets the two escape, it means the goddess is giving him a warning.

If Morion killed one and let another go, it means that the goddess's attitude towards him is "turning a blind eye".

Now that Moraine has dealt with both Boutis and Mr. Z, it means that the goddess has shown him kindness.

The general meaning should be:

"Stop with your messy experiments. We don't care about killing cultists, but stop spreading the old name."

Probably that's it.

"You...you won't stop us from reporting to the Goddess of Night?" Leonard was stunned.

What does it mean?

Moraine looked at Leonard with an expression as if he were looking at an idiot.

"I just praised you for being smart."

Leonard immediately began brainstorming.

You can report this to the goddess.

why?

There are only two possibilities.

First, he completely disregards the goddess, which seems plausible given that he dares to call the true creator by her real name.

But there is another possibility.

Considering his consistently friendly attitude towards himself and Klein, Leonard felt the second possibility was more likely.

That is, "Mr. Fool" is likely one of the allies of the Goddess of Night, perhaps some ancient being that has been resurrected and was an ally of the goddess in ancient times, or perhaps he is simply an incarnation of a righteous god.

Therefore, Moraine's request is quite specific.

Such an important matter has fallen on my shoulders, making me a witness to history.

I truly am the protagonist of this era!

"Don't worry, leave it to me." Leonard patted his chest, indicating that he would take Morion's request to heart.

The gears of time have begun to turn, and history rolls ever onward.

Chapter 85: The 2.5th Blasphemous Tablet of the Tarot Society

Backlund, Queens, inside the Hall family's luxury villa.

The piano room door was opened from the outside, and a large golden retriever with a rolled-up newspaper in its mouth squeezed in and then closed the door with its hind legs.

The melodious tune slowly faded away, and Audrey, who was sitting on the piano bench, stopped what she was doing and turned to look at Susie, who had entered the room.

"Audrey, I've brought in today's newspaper for you."

Susie placed the newspaper on the ground at Audrey's feet, opened her mouth, and spoke through spiritual vibrations in the air.

"Oh, thank you, Susie." Audrey bent down to pick up the newspaper from the floor. "Did you go play with that little butterfly again?"
