Mystery: I, the Hermit, am too eager to improve

Chapter 35 Great Emperor, you truly live up to your reputation!

"On May 15th, Green told me that he regretted choosing to become a Seer. After becoming a Seer, he would be subjected to indoctrination by the Hidden Sage every now and then, and the sage would nag him repeatedly, making it difficult for him to sleep."

Green?

After a moment's thought, Roy remembered who the other person was.

One of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse under Emperor Roselle, he later helped Roselle find the island, but also led him into a trap.

He continued reading.

"On May 19th, Green was promoted. He cursed the Hidden Sage again, and I cursed a few words along with him. After all, my adjacent path was so terrible that it really didn't make me happy."

"On May 20th, 520, I have to find someone to celebrate with, even if they may not know the meaning."

"Mrs. Coppert is so considerate, much more charming than Miss Sharyl."

Your Majesty, you truly live up to your reputation!

"On May 22nd, Green left. Before he left, he said I was too extravagant and indulgent, and that I would regret wasting my time in the future. I took his advice and am quitting drinking today!"

Is there another one that wasn't mentioned at all?

The emperor remained as stable as ever, with 60% of the pages of his diary recording his romantic escapades.

However, Green turned out to be a spy.

He thought of his own surname, and Bernadette's message for Hyde to come to him, and a strange conjecture arose in his mind.

Could it be that I am a descendant of one of the Four Apocalypses, just like Edwina?

It's not impossible.

but.

Even if he is a descendant of Green, it doesn't seem to make much difference. It's not like Green left him a legacy at the dawn of the elements, is it?

He shook his head gently.

"Stop dreaming."

Regardless of whether he is a descendant of Green or not, the passage of time makes it impossible for him to rise smoothly on the path to extraordinary success. He can only rely on himself and the mysterious temple.

He took out the pendant that had been offered as a sacrifice beforehand.

"The Aurora Society was involved in the recent gang wipeout."

Repeat it seven times.

Driven by spiritual inspiration, the pendant quickly rotated clockwise.

really.

Aurora Viewing.

Roy thought about it and decided to try dream divination.

With the protection of the mysterious temple, he would not encounter any danger when using dream divination, and he had seen the scene in person, so his success rate with dream divination was very high.

"The truth behind the destruction of the gold-splashing party."

The members of the Gold Splashing Party were mainly a group of laborers who frequented factories and docks.

They help people carry goods, and on the side, they do some shady business.

Roy muttered to himself repeatedly, then his consciousness sank into a deep sleep.

Before long, a scene appeared before my eyes.

Factory workshop.

The accessories were piled up haphazardly, but the ritual magic constructed of flesh and blood in the middle area stood out.

"With this magic, we can hear the voice of God and gain superhuman strength."

"Praise be to God!"

"Praise be to the great Lord!"

A group of people shouted excitedly.

These people were all members of the Gold Splashing Party, but at this moment they looked more like devout believers than anyone else.

however.

What awaited them was terrifying babbling and madness.

The flesh and blood disappeared.

When the delirium began, the entire Gold Splashing Party descended into madness, turning on each other until the fighting overturned the furnace, causing a fire to break out and spread.

however.

Even amidst the flames, some prayed frantically, while others fought and brawled, with no thought whatsoever of escaping.

One ceremony, and dozens of lives were lost.

This is a mysterious world.

Even ordinary people are not immune to madness.

Roy sighed, his eyes sweeping across the star map, where the brightest points were like the moon, while the dimmer ones were barely visible.

Maybe--

When necessary, it is still advisable to take the risk of engaging with those knowledgeable and powerful beings.

Finally, Roy sent a message to Klein through the pale purple star.

……

Klein felt a momentary illusion before his eyes, followed by a stream of information that transformed into text and appeared before him.

"I will hold a secret study session every Sunday at 7 p.m."

well.

Avoid scheduling your tarot readings at the same time as your own.

He doesn't need to be forced to change the timing of the Tarot meeting.

"Praise be to the hermit!"

Klein silently praised him in his heart.

Then, he couldn't help but laugh at himself—

Including his own Tarot Club, he is now connected to three organizations.

Would you call him a traitor who served three masters?

……

Backlund, Joewood District.

"Fors, where did you get the Magician's recipe?"

"I have another secret gathering, introduced by a writer friend, but unfortunately I can't bring you in."

Fors said regretfully.

Hugh immediately understood.

"So, you asked me to collect Emperor Roselle's notes for you, also so you could make a deal at that gathering?"

"Yes, it was with that information about the Morse Order that I obtained that gentleman's magic master formula at a relatively low price."

Fors nodded.

Hugh was envious, but he teased her, "You've been working really hard lately, but don't go back to your old ways as soon as you get the Magician's Formula."

"I don't think it'll work either!"

Fors's face fell instantly.

Each of the extraordinary materials corresponding to Sequence 8 costs around 300 pounds, and with her current wealth, she can only afford one piece of material.

She lay slumped on the sofa, pondered for a while, and then suddenly sat up.

"Hugh, we can't be this lazy!"

"???"

Hugh looked completely bewildered.

Is this something Fors should say?

and.

"You've been the only one who's been lazy all along, haven't you? I've been working hard to get arbitration and earn commissions."

"Well, that's not important. What I mean is, our current methods of making money are too slow. We need to find a better way to make money, otherwise you can arbitrate until you're old and I can write until my hand is worn out and still not earn much gold."

Fors said.

Hugh agreed.

The issue is--

"How can I make more money?"

"Knowledge, information."

Fors had been pondering this for a while, and now he quickly voiced his thoughts: "We can make money using the knowledge and information we have. I remember that Viscount Grelint was very interested in the occult."

"Viscount Grelint?"

Hugh recalled the information about the viscount.

He was very wealthy and longed for the extraordinary world. He was always collecting mysterious knowledge and got to know Fors because of the book "Stormy Mountain Villa".

It seems possible.

She thought for a moment and said, "What should I do?"

"You'll be in charge of gathering information and intelligence. We'll create the identity of middlemen and become the intermediary for these nobles and extraordinary individuals. We'll split the profits 50/50."

Seeing that he couldn't refuse, Fors quickly raised his hand, "Gathering information is more arduous and dangerous than me finding people and channels. I'm taking advantage of you."

"We need to be cautious, careful, and discerning. When should we contact Viscount Grelint?"

"No rush. Let's wait until Viscount Grelint has a gathering. For nobles, gatherings are the best time to meet and chat. It would be too impolite to approach them so casually at other times."

After thinking for a moment, Forl added, "I can go alone this time. Once we have a more familiar working relationship, I'll introduce you to Viscount Grelint."

"it is good."

I accidentally clicked "publish" instead, so I'll add an extra chapter. Happy Mid-Autumn Festival everyone!!
