He slowly returned to the reclining chair, sat down, and began to seriously read the papers.
Upon seeing this, Richardson didn’t say a thing as he silently retreated out of the room and quietly closed the wooden door.
With this in mind, Klein immediately entered the bathroom, took four steps counterclockwise, and arrived above the gray fog. Every time he appeared as The Fool, his inner shell beneath the gray fog would wear Klein Moretti’s appearance. It wouldn’t overlap with Sherlock Moriarty, Gehrman Sparrow, or Dwayne Dantès.
Due to the lack of necessary information, he could only divine about any danger that targeted himself; therefore, he didn’t use dream divination. He removed the spirit pendulum around his wrist and wrote the corresponding divination statement: “Walter’s abnormality will bring me danger.”
Holding the spirit pendulum in his left hand, Klein closed his eyes and entered Cogitation as he muttered the sentence he had just said.
After repeating it seven times, he opened his eyes and saw the topaz spinning counterclockwise at a rather ordinary speed and amplitude.
This also meant that Walter’s abnormality wouldn’t bring him any danger.
Just as he put this matter on hold, he suddenly saw the crimson star that represented The Hermit coruscate as it burgeoned and shrank.
He was left disappointed because Cattleya was only requesting Mr. Fool to pass on a message to The Hanged Man. She didn’t mention when she would close the deal with The World.
At this moment, Alger Wilson had just finished his reports and had passed the examination, allowing him to return to the Blue Avenger.
When he saw the endless gray fog and heard The Hermit’s words, he walked to the captain’s cabin with a deadpan expression, keeping his pace normal.
Upon entering the room and closing the door, he came in front of an alcohol cabinet, took a bottle of Lanti Proof, the most beloved drink of pirates, and poured half a cup.
Alger immediately held the cup to his mouth and downed it like it was water.
During this process, he kept his eyes half-closed as though he was completely immersed in his own world.
After drinking half a cup of Lanti Proof, Alger put down the cup, wiped his mouth, and chuckled.
He quickly reined in his emotions and paced about, finally giving up on his idea and responded frankly to Cattleya’s request.
“… Please inform Ma’am Hermit that she can directly ask Miss Magician for clues regarding the direct descendants of the Abraham family…”
After settling the request by Admiral of Stars, Alger took the initiative to mention his encounter during the night of the Blood Moon, and he inquired to Mr. Fool about whether the item that resonated with the Ocean Songster’s Beyonder characteristic was the Book of Calamity, and if the female holding the golden cup in the coral palace was Cohinem.
This wasn’t based on intuition, but a logical inference.
He had once obtained the golden cup that Elf Queen Cohinem loved, and a similar vessel had appeared in the dream.
Elvish Songster Siatas knew of Queen of Calamity’s daily trivialities, and she had quite a strong relationship with the angel, which strongly implied that she was an elf that attended to Cohinem. It was completely understandable that the Beyonder characteristic she left behind resonated with the Book of Calamity on the night of the Blood Moon.
With this in mind, Klein suddenly recalled a matter. He had given Cohinem’s beloved golden cup to Vice Admiral Iceberg Edwina for her to bury in Siatas’s tomb.
After some thought, he calmly replied to The Hanged Man, “That’s right.”
Following that, he forwarded the message to the crimson star representing The Hermit.
After doing all of this, Klein conjured The World Gehrman Sparrow and made him pray:
“Honorable Mr. Fool, please tell Danitz to pass on a message to Vice Admiral Iceberg Edwina Edwards about the existence of any abnormalities between Elvish Songster Siatas’s corpse and the golden cup.”
Coming before his changing mirror, he looked at his gray sideburns and blue eyes as he curled up the corners of his lips. He knew that he had returned from being Mr. Fool to the mysterious merchant, Dwayne Dantès.
…
Bayam, inside a primitive forest.
Danitz, who was having a feast in a particular base of the Resistance, suddenly trembled as he nearly choked on the liquid in his mouth.
Although this wasn’t the first time he was receiving an answer from the mighty Fool, he still felt apprehensive and afraid.
After he identified the figure and heard his words, he heaved a sigh of relief and knew that Gehrman Sparrow was getting him to do something.
Cattleya considered a moment and decided if she ought to give The Hanged Man a new mission because she wasn’t too sure if Miss Magician was willing to divulge clues to the Abraham family.
…
Walter returned to 160 Böklund Street in the afternoon with a normal expression like before. He had apparently resolved everything easily.
Klein didn’t ask. He felt that their relationship hadn’t reached a point in which his butler could be totally frank with him. Furthermore, the problem hadn’t fully blown up before him in a way that couldn’t be hidden.
Time quickly passed as he had his lessons. The next evening, with the arrival of the full moon, Klein brought along Richardson and rode his high-end carriage to Saint Samuel Cathedral for the Moon Mass.
He wasn’t worried about the donation that would happen, because Miss Justice had paid him 1,000 pounds. He now had 2,186 pounds, so it wasn’t too difficult for him to donate a few hundred pounds.
