Mystery: The Undead Don't Die from Linking the Fire

Chapter 14 Hello World!

"Didn't we talk during the day? Why can't you understand me now?"

"I suspect you're faking it on me, but I have no proof!"

Klein felt rather helpless, but there was nothing he could do if the other party didn't understand.

Then we can only communicate in Chinese.

But wouldn't that expose me?

probably not.

He also revealed that he could speak Chinese in front of "justice" and "the Hanged Man".

No one has stipulated that local indigenous gods cannot learn Chinese, right?

not to mention.

Only by speaking Chinese can one better demonstrate the omniscience, omnipotence, and high-class status of the "Fool" as a deity.

The "Fool" here has laid the groundwork for everything.

Meanwhile, the embers on the other side.

His brows remained furrowed.

Don't I have the "Eye of Wisdom"? Why can't I understand?

This garbage, even the "Idiot's Eye" won't do!

Hmm? No, that's not right.

Yu Jin looked around.

He suddenly realized that he didn't seem to be carrying that "eye of wisdom" in his current state.

understood.

I am probably in a soul state right now, while the Eye of Wisdom is still in my physical body.

That's fine.

The "Eye of Wisdom" is actually quite powerful.

"Welcome, Mr. Ember."

Klein composed himself, smiled, and spoke in Chinese, "You can call me Fool."

After saying that, Klein said in a light and calm tone, "You don't seem to understand the common language of the Loen people, but I happen to have some knowledge of your language."

Ok.

This way, one can maintain the "fool's" high-class image while still being able to engage in dialogue with the other party.

Simply perfect.

"you?"

As expected, Ember reacted to the "fool's" words about "you," asking, "Who else?"

"a lot of."

Klein breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Ember had reacted, and then smiled and said leisurely, "For example, Emperor Roselle, he is one of you."

"Roselle? Who is that?"

Yu Jin raised an eyebrow slightly; it was yet another name he'd never heard of.

"I……"

Klein paused, nearly losing his composure on the spot.

What's wrong with you?

Are you deliberately trying to embarrass him?

And another thing, don't you have any common sense at all?!

and many more.

If the other person and I time travel at the same time.

Having the memories of 'Klein' laid the foundation, he naturally knew some common sense.

But the other party crawled out of their grave...

amount.

It's normal that he doesn't understand Rune and doesn't know Roselle.

That's fine.

"I think I can ask around from other people after you leave."

Klein said casually, with a slightly teasing tone, "He's quite well-known in this world."

"I see."

Ember nodded silently, then turned his gaze to the mysterious figure who called himself "The Fool" and asked, "Where is this?"

"Tarot Club".

Klein continued in an ethereal and profound tone, "A gathering of those destined to meet."

"Tarot Club? The Fool?"

Yu Jin raised an eyebrow slightly, as if he had suddenly noticed something.

In fact.

Although his memories of this world were fragmented, he did remember some things.

Just as he was able to connect the Church of the Night, the Goddess of the Night, Antony, and Ariana to the fact that this world is Lord of Mysteries.

Based on the existing clues, a jumble of thoughts suddenly formed in his mind.

However, due to a lack of key information, he was always unable to connect all of these things together.

"What are you looking for?"

Seeing that Ember remained silent, Klein felt somewhat helpless and took the initiative to guide the conversation.

"King of Cinder"

As if sensing this, Ember looked up at the Fool and slowly asked, "Do you know where I can find them?"

"..."

Klein's eyelids twitched, and for a fleeting moment, a sudden inspiration struck him as he looked at Ember.

Is he wondering if I can burn it?

Klein's lips twitched slightly; it seemed quite possible.

Besides, who knows which Lords of Cinder exist in this world?

"Shouldn't you already have a lead?"

Klein adopted a mysterious and inscrutable demeanor.

"Yes."

Ember nodded slightly. "He gave me a hint about the Black Emperor."

"Who is 'he' or 'she'? Or perhaps, it is Him?"

Klein's mind stirred slightly, but he quickly regained his composure and deliberately chuckled, "Black Emperor, I see."

"Do you know where it is?"

Seeing that there seemed to be a clue to the main storyline, Yu Jin pressed for more information.

"certainly."

Klein smiled slightly, inwardly muttering to himself, "Of course I don't know."

He doesn't even know who the Black Emperor is, so how could he possibly know where he is?

However, judging from the history he learned about his "predecessor", the Black Emperor seems to be a common title for every emperor of the Solomon Empire?

But what does this have to do with the King of Cinder?

Could it be that the "Black Emperor" of the Solomon Empire is still alive?

"I can tell you the answer."

Klein's mind raced, but he maintained a relaxed smile, saying, "But the question is, what price are you willing to pay?"

What do you want?

Ember retorted directly.

"..."

Klein was speechless. You've stumped me again.

If this really is Ember, then he wants many of the opponent's items.

The problem is, he can't mention it!

He doesn't know where the Black Emperor is. What if he can't answer the questions asked for something?

Wouldn't that completely ruin your image?!

"I follow the principle of equivalent exchange."

Klein continued in a deep tone, "But unfortunately, that's a price you can't afford right now. However, I can give you a chance."

"What opportunity?"

Yu Jin continued to press for answers.

"Tarot Club".

Klein chuckled and said, "Some people like you have asked me to set up a regular meeting, and I'm a witness. You can't get information from me for enough money, but it might not be for them."

"So, do you want to participate?"

Klein was half-concealed, giving off an unfathomable air.

"want!"

Yu Jin answered without hesitation.

But after he finished speaking, he frowned slightly. This scene seemed familiar, just like the Great Blessing...

and many more.

A look of confusion appeared in Yu Jin's eyes.

What is the Great Blessing?

A flash of inspiration struck him, but due to his severely damaged memory, he was unable to grasp the key point.

Klein felt relieved to see that Ember had finally fallen for the trap.

With a light tap of the left index finger, the tarot cards materialized on the bronze tabletop:

"They've chosen names based on tarot cards; Justice and The Hanged Man are already selected."

"You can choose one card from the rest of the tarot cards."

"..."

The embers silently swept across the tarot cards, finally settling on one of them—

That is the world.

His intuition told him that he should choose the world.

It's not because of smashing Waludo, but because it seems like something interesting is going to happen.

but.

It's not interesting enough.

I choose this one.

Yu Jin pointed to one of the cards and slowly began to speak.

So Mr. Fool glanced at it.

"Lover."

Klein's eye twitched slightly. Why did he feel that the other person had a wicked sense of humor in choosing this card?

"Every Monday at 3 PM, free from distractions."

Klein succinctly explained the specific timing and requirements to his "lover".

Then, he sent the other party directly out of the gray fog.

He had realized something was wrong and was afraid that if he continued, he would be exposed.

"Did I say too much just now?"

Klein began to review his actions and couldn't help but reflect on his own performance.

As a 'fool,' he shouldn't have said so much.

However, since the other party lacks common sense, the two riddle-solving individuals simply cannot communicate without some explanation.

Secondly, he felt a genuine sense of familiarity when the other person spoke Chinese, so he couldn't help but say a little more.

But it's alright.

After all, he is a fellow countryman who speaks Chinese, and an "ember" that saved the world.

Given his 'status,' it wouldn't be too undignified for the 'fool' to have a few more words to say.

"call."

After reviewing the situation, Klein found no major flaws and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Now that Mr. Ember has been pulled onto the gray fog.

Then, it's just a matter of time.

"No rush, we can't rush things. Everything will be resolved eventually."
