Chapter 5 - Chap 5: CAN I JOIN THE TAROT CLUB?

Above the deck, there was an extra layer of asbestos beneath the grill to prevent the coal sparks from being blown out by the wind and scorching the surface of the ship.

 The fat cook, wearing an apron and a tall white hat invented by Roselle, used a fine brush to constantly apply a seasoning created from a secret recipe—basil, fennel, sea salt, pepper, and lemon juice—to the long, white strips of fish, and frequently flipped them over to ensure that both sides were evenly heated.

 The flesh of the murloc's belly was fatty, dripping with drops of oil and causing the coal beneath the iron mesh to sizzle and flare up.

Luno sat next to Gerhman and waited impatiently for the food in front of him, occasionally looking at the time on his pocket watch, while waiting for Luno to decide to chat with Klein. Luno grabbed a glass of water and spoke in a low voice.

"so, is Sir. Gerhman have a question for me?" Klein was silent for a moment. Then nod.

"Are you an beyonder?" Luno raised his eyebrows, not expecting the first thing that Klein would ask Is that. Luno just sighed and nodded. "Here, other than me and Captain Elland, as well as you, there is no other Beyonder"

Klein raised his eyebrows. "As I expected." Klein nodded to himself. "if you don't mind, what path are you Luno?"

"if I answering, will you want to be my friend?" Luno smiled slightly, then after seeing how Klein looked hesitant, Luno waved his hand.

"What's wrong with that gaze, of course I have to make sure you're not an enemy to me in the future, and saying someone's Beyonder path is a sensitive thing, you know?" Klein looked aware of his mistake, then nodded slightly.

"So, Gerhman Sparrow, will you be my friend?"

Luno's question made Klein doubt, not that he didn't want to, but was Gerhman's character compatible with having friends? But maybe just one friend wouldn't destroy his character, right? Klein took out a gold coin and put it in his hand then flipped it, the gold coin floated and fell- Head, positive.

Seeing that the divination result was positive, Klein nodded.

"klein... You're too cautious..." Luno smiled helplessly at Klein's actions, then he put his glass on the table, and asked Return. "So now that we're friends, I want to know, which god do you worship?" Luno was curious about Klein's answer now, he knew that after meeting Danitz, Klein would boldly say 'the fool' but now he had just changed his nature. So Luno wanted to know how dare Klein said the god.

Luno saw the doubt in Klein's eyes, and it made him laugh in his mind. Of course, Klein was still lacking in confidence he wouldn't easily say that-

"I believe in 'the fool'" Luno's daydream stopped, he looked at Klein with wide eyes. "Heh... Klein..." Luno glanced around, and realized they all didn't hear Klein's words. Luno then took his book and pen and wrote a few lines.

-anyone who is around Luno and Gerhman won't hear Luno and Gerhman's chat until Their Chat is over-

Klein glanced at Luno's book, and couldn't help but frown. Klein then looked around, activating his spirit vision. He couldn't help but be surprised to see some sort of transparent layer enclosing them, and the fact that Elland wasn't aware of this quirkiness made him even more uncomfortable. Klein glanced at Luno who had torn the sheet and burned it.

Feeling Klein's gaze, Luno turned around, and smiled. "Calm down, this won't harm them"

"Mystical item?" Klein asked in a suspicious tone. Luno shook his head. "no, this is my beyonder's power" Klein looked at him in disbelief, it was obvious it was because Klein had never heard of this kind of beyonder power.

Luno did not explain further and instead asked again. "You said you believed in 'The Fool'? You mean half-the fool of the Antigonous family?" this was the plan, making Klein unconsciously fall into a trap, making him see Luno as someone who knew the history of the fourt epoch.

"Half-the fool antigonous?" here he was, Luno nodded, explaining Back, "yes, in my family record, the antigonous family is one of the families that has a angel who went crazy, at the end of the fourth epoch Antigonous had plans to rise to become The fool, uh you know sequence 1 isn't the end, right? The fool is the pinnacle of the pathway seer. And Antigonous was going to go on to become the fool, but because of something I couldn't say, he failed and became half a fool. And 'he' is crazy. So I asked Again, which fool do you worship, which fool?"

Klein fell silent, clearly not expecting Luno's answer about Antigonous after so long... and whether this was a coincidence or not, he had just predicted the potion for the seer path a few days before, and one of the ways I got it came from Antigonous's diary...

Klein frowned, he at least got PTSD from the Coincidence he had all his life here. Realizing he had been immersed in his thoughts for too long, Klein shook his head. "No, my lord is not the half-the fool you mentioned."

Luno pretended to be enlightened, then with false curiosity asked Again "then which fool? Wait, don't the fool you mean is the fool from the previous era? If so, it's only natural that Antigonous failed to be the fool..." Luno nodded nodded.

on the other hand, klein is at a loss for words. He also did not speak back. Luno sipped water from his glass and then Back spoke in a playful tone "when you said the fool you worship is not the fool I know, I can't help but associate him with the recent Tarot organization" it wasn't a lie, even if he didn't accept his memory Even then, Luno would still associate the two things.

Luno could see how Klein was getting stiff, which made Luno smile with satisfaction. "You know, Gerhman... I'm very curious about this tarot organization... As a descendant of a family that always writes the history of various epochs, of course this caught my attention... Gerhman from your previous words... Are you... as I thought?" Klein gasped, his eyes wide, staring at Luno's amber eyes that shone with amusing rays. Klein broke out in a cold sweat, not expecting someone he had just met to guess all of that exactly. This scared him. But Klein didn't feel the evil aura of Luno, he calmed himself down. Gerhman should not be afraid, or feel on the threshold of despair like this.

With a crazy smile, Klein raised his eyebrows, "If so, what would you do? Report me?"

"Damn! WOW... JUST WOW, Klein I didn't know you were going to admit it just like that," Luno praised Klein's candour, even though he believed Klein was now betting on fate. He still praised klein's reckless nature, Luckily I'm not a bad person hahahaha.

"Report you? What's the benefit for me? You misunderstood Gerhman. I'm just curious, and since you're a core member, can you include me? I won't do rash Actions, after all there are gods who see my Actions, I'm not so stupid to try to hurt you guys, after all I'm just seq 6" Luno leaned back in his chair, and said casually.

Klein narrowed his eyes, a little incredulous, and also Luno and Klein were meeting for the first time.

Luno didn't care about Klein's gaze, "I still remember 'his' honorific name, I'll chant that name."

"Why? What is your purpose?"

"Okay you caught me, you could say I want to use this for my future needs, in this day and age there aren't many gods who can answer and provide help, other than The True Creator, Primodial Demoness and Hidden Sage. And I don't want to pray to 'them', from my perspective, 'the fool' is not an evil god like the three gods I mentioned, let's say I'm betting with my own soul, so can you put me in a tarot club? Dear friend?"

Silence, after Luno's lengthy explanation, Klein pondered, there were many things he had to think about, like what would he do if Luno realized The fool wasn't that strong, and couldn't give that much help, but hey, the fool Is klein.

Klein looked at the gold coin in his hand, then let out a short breath, "I can't guarantee it, but I'll tell my lord" Klein said with a sharp look at Luno.

"No problem, I can wait." After saying that Luno flicked his fingers, and the barrier surrounding them faded and disappeared, the atmosphere was back to normal. Klein looked at Luno with a look that was hard to explain.

Luno shrugged indifferently. his amber eyes looked at Donna and Denton. Acting as if he didn't say anything.
