Chapter 221 Discussion About the Gods
Louise was a little bewildered. She had been thinking about how to join the "Tarot Society" on her own. This time, after the encounter between Tingen and Klein, she felt that the opportunity might be approaching.
But she never guessed that the opportunity came from Audrey. After serious thinking, she felt that it was very reasonable. It was recommended by the enthusiastic Miss Justice, and Louise could also avoid a lot of troubles out of thin air.
However, she can't be too obvious now, so she pretended to be puzzled and asked with a frown:
"About 'The Fool'? What information?"
Audrey slowed down her tone, seemed a little worried, and gave the answer softly:
"A three-segment name with a description of 'The Fool' inside."
Louise's brows frowned even tighter, and there was a lot of curiosity in her perplexed expression. Her voice was almost muttering, but Audrey beside her could hear it clearly:
"Could it be that the ancestors of the Antigonus family successfully took the last step? Or is it a new 'fool'?"
Audrey was at a loss as she listened. What does it mean to "take the last step"? What is the "new 'fool'"? Aren't the gods immortal?
I really want to know the answers to these questions... Audrey once again felt the fact that she was still a rookie Extraordinary, looked up at Louise, and found that she suddenly turned her head to look at herself, and said with burning eyes:
"Is that page of Roselle's diary with you?"
"No." Audrey said, noticing that Louise's eyes were a little lost, as if seeing an article she liked was suddenly interrupted, she hurriedly said:
"If you're interested, I'll have a servant take it to you at night."
"I'm looking forward to it." Louise readily agreed, "If I research something, I will share it with you for free."
Audrey nodded sweetly, and a stone in her heart finally fell to the ground. Immediately afterwards, curiosity popped out of her head again, and she asked:
"You just said that the Tarot cards made by Emperor Roselle are related to the twenty-two Extraordinary Sequences. Can you explain them in detail?"
Louise smiled when she heard the words, and said, "I found that you are more interested in things about Emperor Roselle."
"However, this knowledge may break your perception of the world, do you still intend to continue listening?"
It’s okay not to say this, but now Audrey is even more curious. Seeing that the serious expression on Louise’s face does not seem to be fake, she also thought that she has Mister Fool’s blessing, so she nodded seriously:
"Want to hear."
"Okay." Louise tilted her head slightly, and said easily, "Do you know who the Extraordinary at the top of a sequence pathway is?"
Audrey quickly replied, "An angel of Sequence One."
Louise was noncommittal, and continued to ask: "What do you think the concept of a god is?"
Audrey's bright eyes suddenly widened, and a surprised expression appeared on her face. Obviously, she did not expect that Louise would dare to comment on the high and high gods so casually, and replied with some hesitation:
"A god is a god."
"The Creator woke up from the chaos, broke the darkness, and created the first ray of light. He himself completely integrated into the universe and became everything..."
Louise interrupted aloud and said: "That is the content in "Apocalypse of the Night". The descriptions in this aspect of the scriptures of the seven churches are unexpectedly unified, but the ages of the birth of the seven gods are different. , isn't it strange?"
Noticing Audrey's confused look, Louise continued:
"To put it another way, when several friends who have a good relationship disagree because of something that doesn't involve the fundamentals, the final result is likely to be that each takes a step back, completes a compromise, and reaps a situation acceptable to all parties."
"Don't you think this creation myth is the result of a compromise between the seven churches?"
There are some conventional things that most people will never think about in their lifetime, but once the door is opened, it will be difficult to close it again... Audrey's lips were slightly dry, she frowned and said:
"Even if that's true, what does that have to do with tarot cards?"
Louise suppressed the smile on the corner of her mouth and explained:
"I just want to prove to you that the gods are not born to be born. He used to be the same as us, and he needed to take potions to get promoted."
The blasphemous thoughts in Audrey's mind were getting deeper and deeper, and Louise's voice came from her ear, which seemed a little ethereal due to her ecstasy:
"The main card of the Tarot card corresponds to the twenty-two sequence pathways. The top of each pathway is not an angel of sequence one, but a god, for example,"
"Sequence 0, Fool."
For the first time, Audrey experienced the feeling of downtime. Her eyes almost lost focus, and all the thoughts in her head disappeared, leaving only Louise's words constantly echoing, impacting her young heart.
Gods are nothing but powerful Beyonders. Even ordinary people can be promoted step by step by taking potions, and finally become true gods.
What blasphemy!
Audrey suddenly realized that half of her belief in the goddess had quietly turned into awe.
Using the ability of "spectator", Audrey became calm as quickly as possible, and turned her eyes to the calm Louise again, suddenly understanding where did her pride come from?
When a person knows too many secrets in this world, he will naturally lose a lot of awe that only exists in the hearts of ordinary people.
In the Extraordinary World, knowledge equals power.
"Are there many people who know this secret?" Audrey asked softly.
Louise turned around and looked at the crowd downstairs. Some of them got together to talk loudly, and some surrounded the noble lady and Viscount Grelint, and replied with a smile:
"The vast majority of Extraordinary people in this world will never know this secret throughout their entire lives."
"Ignorance is sometimes a lucky thing."
Audrey felt that the shock she had received today was already big enough. She was afraid that Louise would reveal any blasphemous knowledge, so she changed the subject and asked:
"Is it because of this secret that you want to study the title of 'The Fool'?"
Louise was silent for a moment, before answering the question:
"Whether the ancestor of the Antigonus family was promoted to Sequence 0, or someone else became a new 'fool', the appearance of a true god will definitely change the entire mysterious world, and even the pattern of the real world."
"As an Extraordinary who is struggling to survive at the bottom of the world, the advantage of foresight may be able to help him gain enough benefits in this foreseeable turbulent change."
Through Louise's explanation, Audrey seemed to have been baptized and saw the essence through the appearance. She thought of the purpose of Mister Fool's "Tarot Club" and "The Hanged Man" The gentleman's attitude changed from a little resistance to a respectful and humble attitude...
