468 The Moon (2/2)
Heh, where did your arrogance go when facing a hidden existence? Why is there only humility? Klein secretly lampooned as he tapped the edge of the mottled long table and said, ”But you have to adhere to certain matters.”
”Please speak.” Emlyn held back his excitement.
Klein smiled and replied, ”You cannot reveal anything related to me to anyone unless you gain my permission.
”This includes the Sanguine who were previously present at the ritual.”
”But…” Emlyn was somewhat unable to accept the request.
Klein asked warmly in a very certain manner, ”It's likely that Lilith didn't get you to report to anyone afterward?”
This could be inferred from the fact that there was no prayer content in the revelation!
Li…”He” directly called the Ancestor by ”Her” name… It sounds like they're old friends… Emlyn's heart trembled. He lowered his head and replied, ”No.”
Klein said with an unperturbed smile, ”This is a secret deal, which is why I responded after you were free from surveillance. Similarly, you don't need to report this to Lilith as it will let certain people notice it.”
Seeing Emlyn nod in understanding, Klein added, ”If you want to be the key to saving the Sanguine, you must suffer the pain of the corresponding thorns. For example, you will not be understood by others, be slandered, and looked down upon. You can only silently proceed forward in the darkness while being burdened by your heavy mission.”
The words that were aimed at him made Emlyn White imagine a corresponding scenario.
He, who was always mocked by his kinsmen because of his fondness of dolls, had gotten lost and entered the Harvest Church. Stained with traces of shame, he, who had never been valued and thought highly of by his elders, would silently guard his race from the corner, protecting everyone without anyone knowing…
Very soon, Emlyn, who had moved himself, respectfully replied, ”Your will will pass through the earth.”
Klein leaned back and said very lightly, ”I tacitly consented to the establishment of a secret gathering, and it is held right here.
”Are you willing to join this gathering in search for the method to become powerful to save the Sanguine?”
”I am!” Emlyn replied without any hesitation.
Klein nodded in satisfaction.
”Do you have any other requests?”
Emlyn was overjoyed. He said in a hurry, ”Honorable Mr. Fool, I would like you to help me dispel the psychological cue in me. A bishop of the Church of Earth Mother…”
”I know.” Klein calmly interrupted him.
He knows… As expected of a hidden existence… Emlyn's head lowered again.
Klein let out a soft chuckle.
”I can help you, but what price are you willing to pay for this?”
Above the gray fog, he had a very potent Spirit Vision, and he had previously discovered that the dark-colored psychological cue within Emlyn White's Spirit Body had at some point mostly dissipated, thinning out to the point of frailty.
Klein had intended to resolve the problem by referring to the ritual used to resolve similar problems in the Book of Secrets, but the situation now led him to believe that a secret deed ritual with the Dark Emperor card and the purification of the Sun Brooch would thoroughly disperse Emlyn White's psychological cue.
Price? Emlyn thought about it for a moment, but he couldn't think of anything that would interest a secret existence like The Fool.
Seeing this, Klein took the initiative to say, ”I'm very interested in some of your Sanguine history. You can use that in exchange.”
The Sanguine's history? After a moment's thought, Emlyn agreed.
”You can think about what you would like to describe first. Heh heh. Before that, you need to choose a code name from them.” Klein conjured the unselected Major Arcana tarot cards on the surface of the long bronze table.
Emlyn White scrutinized the cards with interest and said, ”The Moon.
”I choose 'The Moon' card!”typically used to describe early teens who have delusions of grandeur, who so desperately want to stand out that they have convinced themselves they have hidden knowledge or secret powers
