chapter.11 Windfall(2/2)

It's a pity that until more than a hundred years after he was assassinated, people in this world still called those words "Roselle's Secret Text", and no one knew how to interpret it.

The Emperor failed to find the second time traveler throughout his life.

After putting away all his feelings for his seniors, Klein recalled the other messages exchanged at the Tarot meeting one by one.

The second "blasphemous slate"...

Well, on this topic, he deliberately revealed to Justice and the Hanged Man in a casual tone that the "blasphemous slate" was related to the essence of the gods. It was an attempt to learn from Miss Witch and sell it.

The result was also very good. Klein obviously felt that Justice and the Hanged Man were more in awe of him.

Furthermore, because the wording he chose was very clever, it was enigmatic while leaving room for the listener's imagination.

In this way, even if there is a discrepancy between the truth and Mr. Fool's words, Justice and the Hanged Man will feel that there is a problem with their own understanding, not that the mysterious and powerful Mr. Fool said something wrong.

Well, very good, perfect!

Klein nodded again, satisfied with the current situation.

Afterwards, he got up and explored the palace above the gray fog for a while. He found that with his current strength, he could not see through the things behind the fog, so he temporarily suppressed his desire to explore and walked slowly back to the long table in the center of the temple.

I don't know why, but Klein always feels like he's missing something.

This vague intuition has always troubled him since he came above the gray fog and stepped into this mysterious palace. It touched his spirituality like gangrene in his bones, as if he had ignored an important and fatal issue.

.

No, but that's not possible.

Reason tells Klein that his life is on the right track and everything is developing steadily in a good direction. Even variables like Miss Witch...

Wait a moment.

Klein's thoughts suddenly froze at this moment.

He suddenly realized the problem.

It went too smoothly. Everything went too smoothly.

This is not referring to his recent living conditions... but to the witch lady who calls herself a "visitor from another world", Alice!

If we look at it with logical and rational thinking, if a complete stranger suddenly breaks into the lives of three brothers and sisters in an ordinary family, the disturbed party will always be a little uncomfortable no matter how kind and gentle they are.

but none.

From the first day Alice came to his house, Benson and Melissa accepted her without any grudge.

They had no doubt about Alice's words and showed a considerable degree of recognition and liking for her.

Okay, maybe if you look at this alone, you would think it was just a coincidence, but if you focus on his colleague...that nighthawk with a poetic temperament, Leonard Mitchell, Klein recalled his performance in recent days.

, I just felt an indescribable chill spreading throughout my body while trembling.

Leonard was completely obsessed with the girl who had only met him once and asked him for directions.

During the lunch chat with Klein, he regretted more than once that he did not ask for the girl's name, otherwise he could find out her address and create an opportunity for a "chance encounter" when she was out.

He didn't even remember her appearance, he only remembered that the girl had beautiful eyes.

He didn't know her name or her specific appearance, but this pale and ridiculous affection was regarded as a treasure by Leonard. He would talk about it from time to time, and even wanted to write a poem with her as the theme, without realizing it at all.

What a strange situation.

Although this person can't compose poetry at all.

However……

The strangest thing, and what frightened Klein the most at this time, was that there was something wrong with him too!

His doubts about the witch lady were dispelled one by one by him for various reasons... He thought that after verifying the authenticity of the "contract" that the witch lady asked him to sign, it proved that she did not deceive him.

But how dare he come to this conclusion? Why can't he remember the two lines of warnings clearly written on the wanted poster that the captain asked him to read?!

——The items held by the "Mirror Witch" include at least two powerful and dangerous sealed objects. One is in the shape of a staff, and its function is suspected of amplifying black magic in rituals. The other has an unknown shape and is speculated to affect other people's cognition and fabricate hallucinations.

Ability.

——Close contact with the target is strictly prohibited! It has been discovered that cognitive tampering, emotional loss, hallucinations and auditory hallucinations have occurred among the Nighthawks team in Conant City...

Perception has been tampered with...

What if the stories he has heard from Miss Witch so far are just conjectures resulting from his cognition being tampered with?

It's not impossible!

He had read a lot of online articles before traveling through time, and there were enough story materials deep in his memory. It was entirely possible that under the influence of an unknown and mysterious supernatural power, he made up a set of highly credible stories for himself!

And because this was a story he made up and considered reasonable, every time he had doubts, he was dismissed by himself. Later, he even took the initiative to provide reasons in his own mind for things that Miss Witch did not explain!

So is that unknown language that has never been heard before...

If it was just a "fake language" made up from his own memory, and it was an auditory hallucination she caused him to have, then as the initiator, she could obviously make him understand the meaning after "casting the spell".

of.

Those magical, so-called "different world spells" are also...

He was just a newbie who had just stepped into the extraordinary world, and his understanding of those high-level and other ways was almost zero. Under this premise, how could he be sure that the strange power she deliberately showed in front of him was

Spell?

Maybe...maybe, there are other ways to achieve the same level of ability, but he just doesn't know it!

By the way! Isn’t it clearly stated on the wanted notice that the witch is good at mirror spells and confusing people’s hearts...

And the ability that Alice displayed in front of him was not related to the mirror! That's why she never explained her "spell principle"!

The ability obtained from potions is similar to some kind of instinct. What magic theory can she make up?

As for the other... abilities of Black Flame and Frost, he hasn't seen them yet, but if he angers her, he might have a chance to see them.

Klein felt a chill running through his body, which was the psychological effect produced by his excessively frightening mood.

If what he has experienced these days is all an illusion that the witch wants him to see and hear...

So where is the truth? Where is the falsehood?

Klein's mind suddenly became confused, and he could hardly maintain the balance between spirituality and emotion. He was almost falling from this magnificent palace of gray mist back to a body shackled by matter.

Fortunately, he caught a flash of inspiration at a critical moment.

Since he has been deceived by the witch for several days, why now?

Why did he suddenly wake up to the problem at this moment? Did he realize his own incompatibility?

——Just because he came to this mysterious space above the gray fog?

Here, can he be isolated from the influence of the witch on him?

After trying to stabilize his emotions through meditation, Klein gradually regained his composure and carefully flipped through the memories of the past few days in his mind, trying to analyze the entire experience from a bird's-eye view.

After sorting it out, he got the following pieces of information.

First, he was too unwary of the witch living in the same room. He almost accepted it within three days and even got used to this outsider invading his personal space.

Second, after his attempt to divine the witch-related issues failed, he "confirmed" the witch's claims in other ways, but he did not remember to verify the issues he had divined again.

Third, he had never been curious about the witch's motives and whereabouts when she went out during the day, and he had never explored it, and she herself did not take the initiative to mention it to him.

Fourth, he occasionally feels uncoordinated, but always quickly forgets such doubts.

Fifth, the witch often played the harp at night and would wake him up with the sound of the harp in the morning, but he never thought about her reasons for doing this, nor did he think of asking her.

6. After seeing the Nighthawks wanted notice, he tried several times to confirm with her the real situation behind the conflict and the situation of the missing sealed objects, but the witch quickly changed the subject, but he never doubted it.

Why did she avoid answering?

seven……



Too much unreasonable.

What's even more unreasonable is that he didn't discover these inexplicable contradictions until now.

Klein rubbed his eyebrows and felt a slight tingling in his head. Knowing that this was a sign of excessive spiritual consumption, he took a deep breath, simulated the feeling of falling, returned to reality, and saw the familiar figure.

Desk and bay window.

And just as he expected, the fear that made him shiver above the gray mist began to fade away after returning to reality.

He doubted his guess on the gray mist.

He felt that those thoughts just now were purely unnecessary, and things were not as complicated as he thought.

Is there any benefit for Miss Witch to deceive him? Even if it is beneficial, why does she need to make up such a loophole-filled lie?

With her strength, it would definitely not take much time to deal with a Sequence 9 with little fighting ability. Why should she take such roundabout ways? It would interfere with his cognition and cause him to have hallucinations and auditory hallucinations.

What's more, hadn't she already let him see the specialties from the "other world", such as that gold coin...

call--

Klein suppressed the two competing thoughts in his mind, maintained absolute calmness, and eliminated distracting thoughts little by little. Then he sat down on the bed and used meditation techniques to restore his spirituality.
