Chapter 961 Warning By Informing
“Adam is one step closer to being divine.”
Such a simple sentence instantly sent tumultuous waves through every mber of the Tarot Club.
Other than Leonard, the other mbers, including Xio, who had been briefed of the important points by The Magician, imdiately recalled the information regarding Adam.
Ancient sun god, City of Silver’s Creator’s son, brother of Blaspher Amon. Suspected to be one of the eight Kings of Angels!
And this mythical figure, who had existed before the Cataclysm, had beco active in the real world once again. And “He” was one step closer to being divine!
This... To make Mr. Fool sigh, it ans that Adam is probably just one step short of reaching the divine throne, Sequence 0. There’s a chance that “He” might make that step at any mont. Alger subconsciously ca to a conclusion as he hurriedly clasped his hands and couldn’t help but have thoughts run through his mind.
A Sequence o true god is about to be born!
There are still births of true gods in the Fifth Epoch?
This will be the first true god this Epoch?
With deities no longer able to descend upon the real world, it’s unbelievable that a Sequence o would still appear!
Alger always found himself ambitious, with him now setting his sights on Sequence 2, to beco an angel. But after hearing about Adam, he still found it unacceptable.
One had to know that the last one to beco a Sequence o true god was the forr God of Craftsmanship, the present God of Steam and Machinery. And that happened in the late Fourth Epoch.
Since the Fifth Epoch, over thirteen hundred years, there hadn’t been any new existence reaching the divine throne!
It’s no wonder Mr. Fool said that the tis will change as a result... Amidst Cattleya’s scattered thoughts, she suddenly ca to a realization as though she could see the waves that marked the end of an Epoch flooding over.
Having already gathered the ingredients and being in the process of making preparations for the Sequence 4 ritual, she believed she had the chance of attaining divinity in the near future to change her existence. She was still reeling in joy, anticipation, and unease. But at this mont, she suddenly felt a baffling sense of horror. All she wanted was to communicate with Queen Mystic face to face to confirm the future.
Fors, Xio, and the other mbers had a myriad of reactions. On the one hand, they were shocked that Adam was attempting to achieve divinity, never expecting such a matter to happen in the Fifth Epoch. On the other hand, they were worried for their present life. After all, be it Emlyn from the Sanguine, or Audrey who lived amongst the Loen Kingdom’s upper-class, all of them lived in the Fifth Epoch, living in a situation which had more than a thousand years of history setting the foundation. They didn’t dare have any sacrilegious thoughts towards true gods. Even when facing evil gods like the True Creator, they still felt a deep sense of fear and awe, acknowledging “Their” level and loftiness. Therefore, they couldn’t believe that a god would soon appear. They couldn’t imagine what would happen next.
In their eyes, The Fool was a reawakened ancient god, an existence who originally sat at the throne of Sequence o.
One step closer to being divine... Becoming a god... Derrick was mostly excited, as though he could see hope and have a target to strive for.
To him, only a Sequence o could save the City of Silver!
Adam? Becoming a god... Although Leonard didn’t know who Adam was, just the simple words of being “one step closer to being divine” was easy to understand.
He connected it to that ordinary priest who had appeared after the battle ended and had picked up 0-08 in front of Klein.
That’s Adam? Or a subordinate of Adam? No, 0-08 is a Grade o Sealed Artifact. Only Adam, who’s very close to the divine throne, can do it personally with great certainty... It’s no wonder the battle with Ince Zangwill was easier than I expected. I thought the best outco would be and Klein dragging Ince Zangwill into hell together... Who’s Adam? Why haven’t I heard of “Him”... Perhaps a result of being parasitized by an angel, allowing him to know so of the secrets and developnts of the Fourth Epoch, Leonard had a deeper understanding of Adam’s path to being divine. The impact he felt wasn’t too great, with most of his feelings puzzlent and curiosity over Adam’s true identity.
And at this mont, The Fool didn’t speak again or give further explanations. It was as though he was simply warning the mbers to make preparations for the change of the tis.
Amidst the confusion and wandering thoughts, The World Gehrman Sparrow glanced at The Star Leonard and simply said, “Adam is the son of the ancient sun god, Blaspher Amon’s brother.”
Leonard imdiately jumped in fright and failed to control his expression.
He had a deep impression of Amon, and he had a deep trauma for Amon because of Old Man’s descriptions. And Adam was Amon’s brother, so it was very possible that the level of horror was likely the sa between the two brothers!
The World ignored The Star’s reaction and continued, “It can be confird now that Adam is one of the eight Kings of Angels, titled ‘Angel of Imagination.’ ‘He’ is ranked on par with Angel of Ti Amon.
“The reason for ‘Him’ targeting Ince Zangwill is to obtain 0-08 to make up any shortfalls for ‘His’ path to being divine. And ‘His’ plan succeeded.”
Angel of Imagination... Adam is a King of Angels from the Spectator pathway? Audrey instantly connected this to the Dragon King Ankewelt’s title, Dragon of Imagination!
And she had long known that mind dragons represented the Spectator pathway.
As for Leonard, another comprehension obstacle appeared before him. He had been stumped by the concept of a King of Angels, but he was too embarrassed to ask. He had planned on seeking Old Man’s help when “He” awakened.
Alger pondered over Gehrman Sparrow’s words as his expression turned slightly odd. He probed, “You seem to have witnessed the matter?”
Just as he said that, all of them heard a familiar, hoarse laughter.
After Gehrman Sparrow finished laughing, he looked at The Star and said as though it was nothing, “The murder of Ince Zangwill was committed by and my partner.”
“...” Cattleya’s mind instantly went blank.
She could accept that Gehrman Sparrow could easily finish off Admiral Hell, but she couldn’t imagine that he would one day kill a real Sequence 4 demigod!
Cattleya quickly cald down because, with a King of Angels involved in the battle, it was possible that a Sequence 5 could kill off a heavily injured demigod due to various coincidences. Furthermore, he had a partner.
Audrey “read” confidence from The World’s tone. She couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity, “Mr. World, have you already beco a demigod?”
The World didn’t give a direct answer as he chuckled.
“In the future, all of you can entrust matters involving demigods to .”
Every mber present figured out the aning in between the lines.
He had beco a genuine Sequence 4 demigod. Furthermore, he was the kind who had the ability to kill peers at his level!
At that instant, Cattleya beca abnormally calm. She tried hard to recall everything that she had seen and heard regarding Gehrman Sparrow. She was very certain that he was only a Sequence 6 before the visit to the ruins of the battlefield of gods. He relied on the glove to match a Sequence 5.
As for Gehrman Sparrow’s search for rmaids without hunting any of them, it implied that it was a requirent of a ritual. This ant that he had indeed advanced to Sequence 5 back then. His various performances after that proved this point.
Today, it had only been about three months since Gehrman Sparrow stepped into the ruins of the battlefield of the gods, but he had already advanced to Sequence 4, becoming a demigod existence. This overturned Cattleya’s understanding of the world.
She wasn’t too old, with her age being less than thirty. But to reach Sequence 5 and gain the title of Admiral of Stars, it took her about seven to eight years. It was only in the past one or two years did she have the confidence to attempt to breach the gate to beco a demigod. With her starting to make preparations, she believed she was already far ahead of the pack.
Mr. World is impressive! He beca a demigod so quickly! Derrick sincerely felt joy. His idolization for Mr. World grew more intense as he hoped that he could be like him, becoming a demigod at the fastest speed possible.
Audrey was both alard and delighted. Following that, she gained an understanding towards the abnormality in Gehrman Sparrow’s ntal state.
From the looks of it, his low spirits, gloomy, and depressed feelings happened after he beca a demigod. These are the negative effects accumulated from potions. It’s just like how I nearly lost control when I beca a Psychiatrist...
Also, after becoming a Sequence 4 and gaining godhood, he could naturally penetrate more of reality. He then realized that he had been sleeping for a very long ti. His family had passed away, making him lose his goals...
How pitiful. With his warm nature, he must’ve had deep feelings for his family and friends...
However, I’m so envious. Does being Mr. Fool’s Blessed make one advance so quickly... I also wish to beco a demigod early. Mr. Fool’s ntion that “the tis have changed as a result” leaves fretting...
While Emlyn and the other mbers were still in shock, Alger, who also shared the sa feelings and felt deep envy and jealousy towards Gehrman Sparrow, had other thoughts.
As Mr. Fool’s Blessed, Gehrman Sparrow’s embroilnt with this King of Angels and 0-08 matter clearly isn’t an accident...
On the contrary, it might be more reasonable that it’s a mutual plan between Angel of Imagination Adam and Mr. Fool. That will explain it!
Two mythical figures that existed before the Cataclysm. One is awakening, and the other is making an advancent, the two secretly coming together!
Amidst his thoughts, Alger had another idea:
Since Adam had obtained 0-08 and opened the door to the divine throne, what about Mr. Fool? What benefit did “He” get in this matter?
Subconsciously, Alger turned his body and slightly bowed his head to look at the seat of honor.
He didn’t dare look directly, and could only look through the corner of his eye.
