What exactly is the relationship between Angel of Judgment and Mr. The Fool?
At this moment, aside from the two parties involved and a soulless dummy incapable of thought, even the most Salted Fish Magician Fors couldn't help but ponder.
Justice Audrey, who had been guessing whether Angel of Judgment was showing goodwill towards Mr. The Fool, was even more excited, clenching her fists under the bronze long table, feeling as if she had discovered the truth.
Sure enough, Angel of Judgment is showing goodwill towards Mr. The Fool!
Is he trying to form an alliance with Mr. The Fool, or is he trying to pledge allegiance to Mr. The Fool?
Justice Audrey couldn't help but speculate. She didn't think Angel of Judgment was Mr. The Fool's subordinate Angel from the start, because if that were the case, Mr. The Fool wouldn't need to let his Blessed, Mr. Gehrman, join the Tarot Club when Mr. Chariot had already joined.
Combining the information revealed by Mr. Chariot's words just now, Justice Audrey was more inclined to believe that Angel of Judgment was not originally Mr. The Fool's ally or subordinate Angel, but he developed such an intention after Mr. The Fool, this ancient deity, awakened and returned.
Therefore, Mr. Chariot joined the Tarot Club and converted to Mr. The Fool—he was both Angel of Judgment's gesture of goodwill towards Mr. The Fool and Mr. The Fool's symbol of acceptance towards Angel of Judgment.
Moreover, judging from Mr. The Fool allowing Mr. Chariot to inform Angel of Judgment about the Tarot Club and supporting Mr. Chariot's research, Angel of Judgment might have already become Mr. The Fool's subordinate Angel. Well, even if not, he has at least become an ally... How wonderful, Mr. The Fool's influence in reality has grown even stronger!
When Justice Audrey thought of this, she was genuinely happy for Mr. The Fool. She glanced at Little Sun Derrick again, remembering what he said about City of Silver only being able to eat blackface grass and monster flesh for so many years, and couldn't help but sigh, thinking to herself:
I hope Mr. Chariot's research can succeed soon, and I hope City of Silver will welcome light soon.
While Justice Audrey was praying in her heart, The Hanged Man Alger, as the Tarot Club's primary overthinker, naturally had many thoughts.
Regarding the relationship between Angel of Judgment and Mr. The Fool, The Hanged Man Alger's thoughts were actually quite similar to Justice Audrey's, but he thought of even more.
No wonder Chariot has always been so respectful and submissive to Mr. The Fool, knowing so much yet never questioning anything, and being so willing to share knowledge... The Hanged Man Alger recalled Chariot's various behaviors in the past, feeling that some doubts finally had an explanation.
Chariot probably already knew from Angel of Judgment's words what a great existence Mr. The Fool is! And precisely because Chariot represents Angel of Judgment, as a link maintaining the relationship between a deity and a King of Angels, he had to perform well at the Tarot Club.
Even... The Hanged Man Alger thought of that forbidden speculation that had already been cast into the deepest part of his heart.
If Chariot is truly Angel of Judgment's divine descent vessel, his joining the Tarot Club itself represents that Angel of Judgment's service to Mr. The Fool.
This is also a form of sincerity.
As for the fate of Chariot, who serves as the representative of sincerity...
The Hanged Man Alger buried his head even deeper. He didn't even dare to continue thinking along that line, trying hard to empty his mind.
Compared to their thoughts, Little Sun Derrick and Magician Fors's thoughts were much simpler. One simply speculated whether Angel of Judgment had already submitted to Mr. The Fool, while the other, while guessing this, also diverged her thoughts and imagined the relationship between Chariot and Angel of Judgment. In short, their thoughts were not as complex as the two mentioned above.
Lin Ruo, who took in their expressions, could naturally guess the general thoughts of these few and was not surprised.
After all, their direction of speculation was actually the result of Lin Ruo's intentional guidance—of course, not including the divine descent vessel theory.
Although Lin Ruo also found the divine descent vessel theory very interesting, especially suitable as a tragic element in a story, and even capable of forming a team with Gehrman, he originally hadn't planned to apply this setting to Chariot.
However, since The Hanged Man has already overthought it this way... Lin Ruo propped his chin with one hand, feeling that perhaps he could deliberately restrain his actions when he teams up with The Hanged Man to explore mysterious islands in the future.
A divine descent vessel, isn't it normal to be able to borrow a part of 'Angel of Judgment's' power?
Lin Ruo made a pleasant decision when he heard Little Sun Derrick ask:
"Mr. Chariot, what are mushrooms?"
There are no mushrooms in the Forsaken Land of the Gods, and textbooks haven't recorded such things. So, after pondering the relationship between Angel of Judgment and Mr. The Fool, Little Sun Derrick's attention naturally shifted to "mushrooms."
"Mushrooms are a type of food. Although not all mushrooms are edible, some are indeed harmless and edible..." Lin Ruo explained simply, not intending to explain like a botanist, as Little Sun definitely wouldn't understand. He simply asked Mr. The Fool for permission afterward and then materialized the appearance of a normal mushroom.
After Little Sun Derrick curiously took it to look, Lin Ruo added, "However, the mushrooms my friend cultivates are a bit different from normal mushrooms, although their appearance looks similar..." Remembering the mushrooms that gave him a psychological shadow of mushrooms and fish, Lin Ruo's expression became indescribable.
After thinking for a moment, he still said, "How about this, I'll give you some of the mushrooms he cultivated later. Although they definitely won't be the same as the finished product you'll eventually get, at least you'll have a reference."
Lin Ruo didn't plan to send normal mushrooms to Little Sun. There was no other reason; he was mainly afraid that the difference between normal mushrooms and Frank's cultivated mushrooms would be too great, and Little Sun, after experiencing the former, would be unable to accept the latter—Lin Ruo himself was an example of this.
However, although he cared about Little Sun's food problem, Lin Ruo temporarily didn't plan to send other normal food to Little Sun. Having experienced light, it becomes even harder to endure darkness. Lin Ruo could solve Little Sun's individual food problem, but he temporarily couldn't solve that of so many people in City of Silver.
In this situation, just a simple taste would be fine. But what if Little Sun ate too many diverse foods from the outside and then found blackface grass and monster flesh unpalatable? Wouldn't that be disastrous?—Little Sun had to patrol with others and eat with others. Showing abnormalities in front of someone like the Chief would be one thing, but showing abnormalities in front of others, those people wouldn't think as much as the Chief. If they discovered an anomaly and killed Little Sun as an evil god worshipper or an anomaly, it would be too unjust.
So, for safety reasons, Lin Ruo felt he could only make Little Sun's taste buds suffer a little more.
