"You're right…"
As those words were spoken, Klein, from his perspective, could clearly see the person before him being enveloped by an indescribable sadness and desolation at a speed almost visible to the naked eye.
But strangely, Klein didn't feel like Lin Ruo himself was aware of this sadness and desolation.
He was like a person crying without realizing it, thinking the emotional fluctuations were minor, but in reality, he was already overwhelmed with sorrow.
This made a slight sense of unease rise in Klein's heart, along with a touch of guilt.
He couldn't help but cough softly and say, "I don't know if you've tried it… but I have a clue, an idea about my transmigration, so I want to give it a try."
Hearing this, Lin Ruo quickly pulled himself out of his previous emotions.
He rubbed his temples, and the content of the original "Lord of the Mysteries" novel flashed through his mind.
He said, "Although I don't know what you plan to do… I still wish you success!"
After speaking, Lin Ruo smiled and jokingly said, "Besides, I'm bound to you now.
If you can go back, maybe you can take me along for the ride!"
"If it really could be like that, that would be great." Klein smiled and subconsciously began to recall the details of the good luck ritual he had performed before his transmigration.
After all, this concerned whether he could return home, so Klein didn't dare to be careless.
What Klein didn't know was that while he was recalling the good luck ritual, Lin Ruo opposite him was also thinking about almost the same thing.
However, Lin Ruo was considering whether, in his current state as a spirit behind Klein, he would be pulled up to the Sefirah Castle if Klein went there.
Although he wasn't interested in snatching the Sefirah Castle, Lin Ruo was still interested in witnessing the development of the Tarot Club.
As Lin Ruo was thinking this, he saw Melissa, who had gone to wash up, return to the room.
After boiling water and making tea, she and Klein began to eat black bread with the tea for breakfast.
Because Melissa had to go to school, she naturally left in a hurry after eating breakfast.
However, before going to school, she repeatedly instructed Klein about buying black bread and lamb, completely treating Klein like a silly older brother who didn't know how to manage his life.
After Melissa left, Klein changed his clothes, took his revolver, and also planned to go out.
Of course, during this time, he described his affairs before the transmigration to Lin Ruo and explained his plan to repeat the ritual again.
This wasn't something that needed to be concealed.
After all, given Lin Ruo's situation, even if Klein didn't say it, he could still watch the whole process, so it was better to tell the truth and maybe get some advice.
"I haven't heard of the ritual you mentioned, but I feel like it shouldn't be dangerous for you… If you want to, trying it isn't impossible." Following Klein as he floated out of their room, Lin Ruo said in a sincere tone.
He naturally knew that Klein's upcoming good luck ritual wouldn't allow him to return home, but he also understood that this would be the first step for Klein to become the Lord of the Mysteries.
He had to say, he was quite looking forward to it.
"Yeah." Because he was in public, Klein naturally couldn't answer too much and could only vaguely respond, while his gaze couldn't help but glance in the direction from which Lin Ruo's voice came.
He naturally couldn't see anything, but the other party's voice reminded him that there was indeed a spirit behind him.
Of course, considering that even the magical thing like transmigration had occurred, it didn't seem strange that spiritual bodies existed in this world.
The two of them arrived at the place to buy food.
After Klein bought the black bread, almost as Lin Ruo expected, he saw the circus clown handing out flyers in the municipal square.
Then, as Klein approached, someone stopped him and asked in a hoarse voice:
"Want a divination?"
It was a woman wearing a pointed hat and a long black dress, with red and yellow paint on her face and deep gray-blue eyes.
Almost the instant the other party appeared, Lin Ruo's attention was completely focused on the woman.
After all, there were too many guesses among the silly readers of his previous life regarding this woman's identity.
The most reliable and widely accepted one was that this woman was related to the Evernight Goddess.
After all, no one would believe it if a random fortune teller could divine that Klein was "The Fool"!
However, to Lin Ruo's disappointment, even though he stared at the other party the entire time, even after this fortune teller finished divining for Klein and produced the Fool card, he still couldn't see anything strange about her.
Then, the other party was driven away by the real fortune teller—that's right, because this person's actual job was an animal tamer.
Helpless, Lin Ruo could only follow Klein out of the divination tent.
Finally, unwilling to give up, he looked back, but was suddenly stunned.
Because he saw that "fortune teller" next to the tent.
And the other party's gaze was falling on him.
Lin Ruo: !!!
He almost instinctively wanted to do something, but before he could act, everything before his eyes went black.
That was a true, literal blackness, not a loss of consciousness.
Immediately afterward, Lin Ruo seemed to see something more in the darkness.
It seemed to be a brilliant galaxy, or perhaps a scarlet moon, but everything was fleeting.
Lin Ruo only felt that he suddenly had a cold, hard thing in his hand, but before he could think more, his vision returned to normal.
Lin Ruo almost couldn't wait to look at the "fortune teller" again, but was immediately disappointed.
Because although the other party was still standing there, she was no longer looking at him, but was looking around with some confusion.
Without a doubt, even if the other party was really related to the Evernight Goddess just now, now she was just an ordinary person in his eyes.
Lin Ruo pursed his lips and turned to look at Klein, who was heading towards the "Lettuce and Meat" market, planning to buy the remaining ingredients.
He slowly exhaled, controlling his spirit to follow Klein, while raising his hand to look at the thing that had appeared in his hand.
It was a black badge, not much larger than a one-yuan coin, of unknown material, looking like both jade and metal.
There were patterns on the surface, and the patterns gave Lin Ruo a strong sense of déjà vu, reminding him of a passage from the original novel—"Deep black as the base, brilliant embellishments, surrounding exactly half of the scarlet moon."
Lin Ruo: …
Isn't this thing the holy emblem of the Church of the Night?
Why did the Evernight Goddess give him this?
Lin Ruo was puzzled, and suddenly a flash of inspiration struck his mind.
Then, he tentatively poured his spirituality into the badge—this was an operation he had learned when he gained Beyonder abilities using fallacies in the early morning.
Although the Beyonder abilities could no longer be used after the fallacies were canceled, he still remembered a lot of knowledge and stored it as information.
After the spirituality was poured in, Lin Ruo immediately sensed a real, tangible but invisible force spreading from the badge, then enveloping his whole body.
At the same time, he also obtained corresponding knowledge from the badge:
This is a holy emblem made by the Evernight Goddess, with hidden power.
As long as it is in an activated state, it can ensure that his actions and thoughts are not remotely sensed by others, and it will add a very high-level anti-divination to him, equivalent to giving him a secret protection, and the consumption is surprisingly small, as long as a little spirituality is input, it can be maintained for a long time.
In addition to improving the secret protection, this badge also has another function, which is to allow Lin Ruo to transform into a hidden state, similar to invisibility, not to be seen by anyone.
It had to be said that this was a very useful thing, especially for Lin Ruo now, the first thing was to prevent him from being purified as evil by the official extraordinary.
"Is this considered… an early investment?" However, Lin Ruo couldn't be said to be very happy, after all, getting this holy emblem made him feel like he had been arranged clearly.
"Be optimistic, at least we should be considered half a favored one of the gods." After a while, Lin Ruo, with a complicated mood, could only comfort himself like this, but his mind unconsciously recalled the various things about the Evernight Goddess in the original novel.
Being noticed by the Night may not be a bad thing…
I just don't know what kind of price he will have to pay for this gift in the future…
Lin Ruo's thoughts couldn't help but drift.
It was also under these circumstances that he followed Klein, who had finished buying things, back home.
By the time he came back to his senses, Klein had already placed the four black breads he bought in different corners according to the needs of the ritual, preparing to try the good luck ritual.
The Evernight Goddess here is a private setting.
