Chapter 577 Chapter 155 Greek Mythology

"Hey!" Alice nodded happily.

She looked at this newly recognized niece, and the more she looked at it, the happier she felt. Just when she was about to say something, Bernadette asked as if she had woken up from a dream:

"You just said to save my dad... is he still alive?"

Her eyes shone with strong expectation and hope. Alice paused, stopped joking, and said with a slightly more serious tone:

"I can't give you an answer until I actually meet your father.

"However, what is certain is that he should have been a true god when he died, and true gods, well...

"It's not that easy to completely kill a true god. As long as a new 'Black Emperor' is not born, there is still hope for his return."

When the words fell, Alice felt as if a bouquet of fireworks bloomed in Bernadette's eyes, and the bright fireworks made her face red. She opened her mouth to speak, but Alice stopped her:

"I know you're in a hurry, but don't worry yet.

"The situation on your father's side is very complicated - based on my current understanding, let alone saving your father, even if you want to see your father, I am not sure I can bring you back.

"I recommend that you wait, wait... until Mr. Fool's strength can interfere more with reality. At that time, you can find a way to ask Mr. Fool for help.

"I think if he had a choice, he would still want the 'Black Emperor' to be his old friend."

Bernadette paused.

Being excited does not mean losing IQ. After the temperature of her brain dropped, Bernadette finally had the energy to retrieve the information she had collected before and start thinking about it, such as——

"Auntie." Bernadette called tentatively.

Alice was as happy with the title as she had shown before. She nodded excitedly, then leaned closer and asked:

"You need my help with something?"

This straightforward attitude confused Bernadette. Although it was in line with Alice's usual image, Bernadette still felt quite complicated:

"No, I, I have something to ask you."

"Ask," Alice nodded, "while I'm in a good mood."

Bernadette reluctantly tried to close the relationship quietly but her choice to close the relationship was exposed by Alice herself. She could only follow up and be frank:

"That's right, I'm a little curious...

"Judging from your tone, you should be much more familiar with Mr. Fool than you are with my father, but why, why..."

"Why do I call Mr. Fool 'him', but your father is just 'him'?" Alice blinked and answered the question that was difficult for her to ask.

Bernadette responded with silence, and Alice smiled and said:

"Why did you call me aunt just now?"

Bernadette was slightly startled, and Alice already asked and answered: "Because you want to please me."

A flash of inspiration flashed through Bernadette's mind. She looked at Alice. Alice leaned back and sighed sadly:

"So, I am also trying to please the great Mr. Fool~"

This is the truth. Alice is really trying to please Klein in a certain sense. After all, this is her future "mother". She wants Klein to be unable to refuse this matter emotionally and in terms of benefits, and to accept it willingly. Let's do this.

But this is also a lie. She called Klein "He" not because she was trying to please Klein, but because...

Russell is really the "Black Emperor", but Klein is not yet the "Fool"!

——She is supporting Klein.

It doesn't matter what the truth is, because Bernadette believed Alice's words, or subconsciously she didn't think Alice would lie - how could a child lie?

Bernadette didn't ask the reason for the flattery. The question just now was based on Alice's transgression because she was complacent about her status as aunt. For further questions, Bernadette didn't think she could get the answer.

——Based on her experience, Miss Destiny just doesn't like to play tricks on people. She is not stupid. On the contrary, she sees certain things very clearly.

For example, if you can tell at a glance that you want to build a relationship...

Thinking of this, Bernadette felt a little helpless. She took a breath and stood up to say goodbye:

"Miss Destiny, thank you for your answer. I think maybe I shouldn't continue to disturb you..."

Alice had no intention of leaving anyone behind. She waved her hand and then asked curiously:

"By the way, Gehrman... forget it, 'The World' said you stayed because of the prophecy, that is, to be promoted to 'Sage'. Now it seems that there is no hope of promotion. Are you planning to..."

"I might go back to Intis," Bernadette replied, "or it might be at sea...I'm not sure. I need to think about it carefully."

Alice suddenly understood, nodded, and then asked with a smile:

"Then when do you plan to send the complete diary?"

Bernadette was stunned for a moment, then she said in a daze:

"Maybe, when I'm ready, I, I want to..."

She paused, looked at Alice cautiously, and then asked cautiously:

"...I wonder what it will cost to ask Mr. Fool to help me save my father?"

"Ah," Alice patted her head, "You want to use the entire diary as a price?"

Bernadette nodded, looking embarrassed. Alice shook her head and said:

"You can rest assured that Mr. Fool is not as shameless as me. He will not accept two rewards... I mean, as long as letting your father become the 'Black Emperor' is the most beneficial choice for him, he will definitely Find a chance to save your father."

Bernadette opened her mouth and closed it again. She stood there and swallowed, watching Miss Destiny, whom she was scolding, fall into a long silence.

No, you...

Alice was amused by the hesitant look in her eyes. She waved her hand and said with a smile:

"But having said that, a formal price may be necessary. A complete diary is indeed a good choice, and he is not in a hurry anyway... Well, by the way, did Cattleya tell you something?"

"What?" Bernadette asked confused.

Alice blinked and said, "Before, Cattleya..."

Alice truthfully told what happened to "Artisan" Sharf and their final agreement. After listening to it, Bernadette only asked one sentence:

"'Reaper'...must be alive?"

"There is no point in dying," Alice shook her head. "You have seen the 'world', you should understand why I want to live."

Bernadette nodded calmly, and then said: "I will solve this matter...but it will take some time."

Alice made an "OK" gesture and then asked curiously:

"Then can you help me ask why Sharf can't die? After all, if it's just that he can make magical items, then the secret puppet is actually the same..."

There is nothing that cannot be said, Bernadette explained: "Sharf is a descendant of my brother Charles."

"Ah..." Alice was startled.

Almost at the same time, she thought of Bernadette's other brother, that "lovely angel". After a moment of silence, she pretended to be natural and said:

"Is that so...then you took him back?"

"No," Bernadette shook her head, "Cattleya took him aboard the Future, and now he..."

After a short pause, Bernadette spoke in a strange tone:

"He is now working as a laboratory assistant for Frank Lee... You should know Frank Lee?"

Alice swallowed hard, leaned back suddenly, and clung to the sofa. She looked around in horror, and after confirming that there were no strange creatures around, she exhaled and said cautiously:

Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!

"Is it an experimental assistant or experimental materials?"

It took Bernadette more than ten seconds before she spoke in a calm tone:

"Sharf used to have a strong desire to reproduce, but now he has improved a lot."

"..." Alice closed her eyes in pain.

Without seeing the scene, Alice had already guessed what Frank could do. She showed a bright smile and said to Bernadette:

"Maybe I should congratulate you, and your brother, it sounds like he has many descendants."

Bernadette's eyebrows jumped suddenly. She thought it might not be wise to continue talking to Alice. She did not answer the topic and only said goodbye:

"Miss Destiny, I need to go back and think about my next actions..."

Alice did nothing. She waved her hand and signaled Bernadette to leave, so Bernadette left among a field of pea vines.

Seeing the last bit of green disappear from her eyes, Alice played with the pair of rings in her hand, curled her lips and sighed:

"It would be nice if there was a Chinese Valentine's Day... No, it would be nice if there was a lunar calendar."

Unfortunately, the notation of the lunar calendar will probably become her memory forever. Alice reluctantly took back the "Rose Oath", then smiled proudly, and sent a message to Klein in an excited mood. :

"Klain Klein, Bernadette called me aunt!"

This did not disturb Klein at all. After all, the life of a rich man was so ordinary. Except that his personal servant turned out to be a secret partner, there was nothing wrong with it.

——This secret couple was another unlucky villain that Klein caught in Calderon City after "Winner" Enzo was left behind.

As an ordinary person, he really has nothing worthy of praise. If it were not for the language of the Southern Continent, Klein really did not want to waste the position of such a close friend. Although he had the foresight to start learning the language of the Southern Continent by himself, a rich man would never You should do everything yourself.

But Alice's news was really weird. After hearing this, Klein thought carefully for a long time. He was curious about the context of the word "aunt", and at the same time he couldn't help but get entangled in the complicated ethical relationship inside.

——In his opinion, he and Emperor Russell are the same generation. If you really want to count, Bernadette should call him uncle, and Alice...

Klein has basically acquiesced that Alice is his daughter after all.

Therefore, the name "aunt" seemed strange, because based on this calculation, would Emperor Russell want to call him...

dad?

...No, at least he should be an uncle.

Klein waved away the first outrageous call and seriously imagined the scene of Emperor Russell calling him uncle. After a moment of silence, he responded to Alice's message:

"How about...we each have our own thing?"

So that night, above the gray fog, Klein and Alice had a cordial discussion about the complex ethical relationship between them, and Alice had to suggest:

"Seriously, why can't we discuss things on our own terms? After all, if you want to calculate it that way, the relationship with the 'Ancient Sun God' is really chaotic..."

"How do you say it?" Klein showed a listening attitude.

Alice tilted her head and talked about what she knew one by one:

"First it was Adam... the 'Ancient Sun God' gave birth to Adam. Adam and Amon should be brothers, but Adam is the 'Ancient Sun God'... I don't know what the specific form is, but he must be 'Ancient Sun God', so he is both Amon's father and Amon's brother...

"Then there is the 'True Creator'. He must be part of the 'Ancient Sun God' or something like that, but he can be considered as being born of the 'Ancient Sun God'...

"Then there's Uroleus, the path of 'destiny'... Where did he 'restart'? After all, he is both Amon's brother and Amon's nephew. If we combine Adam and Amon Considered an equal, he can still be Amon's grandson...

"Then there is Sasril. Amon said that he was made from his own rib by the 'ancient sun god'... You don't believe that he is a real person, right? I can guarantee that he is also the 'ancient sun god'... Wait a minute, why did the 'Ancient Sun God' cut himself into so many pieces?"

Klein was silent. At this moment, his brain was working at high speed, trying to sort out this complicated ethical relationship.

After a few minutes, he gave up, turned to Alice, and asked sincerely:

"Are the ethical relationships between all your mythical creatures so complicated?"

"Maybe, I mean maybe," Alice said cautiously, "Do you think there is a possibility..."

She paused and asked with an unusually calm look and tone:

“We have Greek mythology here?”

this……

The corner of Klein's mouth twitched. He covered his face and spent several minutes to calm down. Then he put down his hand and asked sincerely:

"Who is Zeus?"

"In terms of authority, it's actually like the 'Storm Lord'..." Alice hesitated, "But in terms of relationship...well...I'm not sure, I don't know. Although I have read Greek mythology, the gods in it are I have never understood the ethical relationship with God, you understand..."

Klein held his forehead. He closed his eyes and then opened them. He looked at Alice with a complicated expression and said:

"I'm really worried that in the future someone will look at our version of the myth and have the same expression as you."

"Don't worry," Alice patted Klein's shoulder and sincerely comforted her, "Think on the bright side, maybe we won't have a future?"

The corner of Klein's mouth twitched fiercely. He glared at Alice and asked, "...Are you sure this is a good direction?" (End of Chapter)
