"Tsk, tsk, Klein, when it comes to freeloading, I'd call you the best."
Listening to Lin Ruo's words, which seemed sincere but were full of a sense of persecution and were completely deliberately provocative, Klein felt an urge to immediately log off and escape the gray fog.
Too embarrassing!
This was too embarrassing!
Klein never expected Lin Ruo to suddenly come out with something like this.
Moreover, he was indeed in the wrong on this matter, having been freeloading all along. It wouldn't have mattered if he hadn't been exposed, but now that he was suddenly exposed, the sense of shame instantly made Klein tense up, even wanting to cover his face.
However, Klein had already been persecuted by Lin Ruo so many times. Although he was momentarily ashamed and wanted to escape the gray fog, he quickly restrained his emotions, coughed, used his Clown ability to control his expression, and said, "This can't be called freeloading, can it? If you compare the Tarot Club to a platform, I can only say I'm collecting channel fees."
Regarding his defense, Lin Ruo widened his eyes in feigned shock, then revealed a gratified smile, and said, "Kid, you've grown up!"
"Channel fees, no problem, no flaws!" While saying this, Lin Ruo deliberately emphasized the three words "channel fees," and his smile was indescribably sarcastic.
Klein: ...
Crap!
Seeing that Klein was really about to explode from his teasing, Lin Ruo slowly changed the subject, saying, "My former title should be Angel of Judgment."
"Angel of Judgment..." Still embarrassingly wanting to die, Klein, seeing Lin Ruo change the subject, also followed suit and forgot about the matter just now, after all, he would really not be able to help but escape the gray fog if they continued talking about it.
He chewed on the title, somewhat puzzled: "Why Angel of Judgment?"
"Don't know." Lin Ruo honestly shook his head, then said: "By the way, remember my previous honorific name. Although in my current state, even if you recite this honorific name, I probably won't feel it, but who knows, maybe it will be useful in the future!"
"Honorific name..." Klein was stunned for a moment, then realized that with Lin Ruo's previous status, it was perfectly normal to have an honorific name, "Tell me."
"Monarch of War and Judgment, the Master of Distorted Rules, the Arbiter of Fate." Lin Ruo slowly recited his honorific name.
"Your honorific name..." Klein, whose knowledge of mysticism had become very solid under Lin Ruo's various tutoring sessions, was immediately stunned, because Lin Ruo's honorific name was indeed a bit strange.
The format was completely that of a god's honorific name, not to mention that Klein's own honorific name also had this style with the help of the gray fog's position, but the areas represented by these three sentences were too broad.
Just as Klein was completely confused, he heard Lin Ruo say with a smile, "How is it, doesn't it sound very cool and imposing?"
"It is indeed very cool and imposing... but don't you really think your honorific name is a bit strange?" Klein asked with a subtle expression.
"To be honest, it is a bit strange, but I can roughly guess why I would use such an honorific name back then." Lin Ruo nodded, then, under Klein's curious gaze, smiled and said, "Of course, regarding this point, I can't tell you for the time being, because it involves some of my personal little secrets."
Klein: ...
Okay!
Although he was still a little curious in his heart, Klein was not the kind of person who liked to pry into other people's affairs. Since Lin Ruo had said that it involved some of his secrets and it was inconvenient to tell him, Klein naturally wouldn't ask any further.
Lin Ruo then continued: "Speaking of which, you also need to be careful about the Angel of Imagination and the Angel of Time Amon, especially the Angel of Time Amon, he is the King of Angels of the Marauder pathway. Nowadays, the Marauder pathway Beyonders have withered to the point of being almost invisible, and he alone accounts for 90% of the credit."
Hearing this, Klein was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said, "He ate all the Marauder pathway Beyonders?"
"Almost." Lin Ruo nodded and said, "You should still remember the angel who was parasitizing Leonard's body, right? He was forced to his current situation by Amon."
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Ruo decided to temporarily not say the words "You and Amon are destined to be mortal enemies," after all, Klein was only Sequence 7 now, and it wouldn't be good to give him so much pressure too early.
Hearing Lin Ruo's words, Klein first frowned, then thought of something and asked with some worry: "Then will Leonard be okay?"
Klein naturally wouldn't forget what he wanted to achieve to advance to Sequence 0. If Amon wanted to become a god, he would inevitably not let go of Mr. Pallez Zoroast, who was parasitizing Leonard's body.
Once involved in the war between the two angels, for Leonard, a Sequence 7 shrimp, it would really be possible to receive a lunch box with just a slight bump. Not to mention that Amon's advantage is obviously very large compared to Mr. Pallez who is parasitizing Leonard's body, and with Lin Ruo's description of Amon's bad character at the Tarot Club just now, the possibility of him letting Leonard go after eating the angel is too small.
In this situation, Klein would naturally worry about Leonard's safety.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen in a short time, and I will help them." Lin Ruo comforted him, thinking of Klein's feat of becoming a god in three years in the original book, the smile on his face became even more subtle, "As for the future... we'll see!"
Afterwards, Lin Ruo chatted with Klein for a few more words, finished reading the Roselle's diaries that were related to him, and because there was nothing else to do, the two of them left the gray fog one after another.
"Huff..." Lin Ruo, who had returned to his body, stood up and lazily stretched, then looked at the box on the table containing the materials.
It's time to concoct the potion and advance!
He then carried the box into the alchemy room. Because of the previous experiences, this time he naturally concocted the potion in no time.
If the Pyromaniac potion was tomato juice-like in color, then the Conspirer potion looked like boiling blood.
Lin Ruo looked at the Conspirer potion in the glass, silently adjusting his state, and soon he picked up the glass and drank the potion in one gulp.
Glug—
Unlike the previous potions that were both bitter and sour, this time the taste buds were filled with a taste of iron rust, which made Lin Ruo frown, but he still swallowed the potion in his mouth completely.
Lin Ruo's spirit, like last time, suddenly Trance out of control, and then some images seemed to unfold before his eyes, but they gave him a more real feeling than any previous time.
He seemed to see flames, saw people standing or sitting around him.
Lin Ruo smelled the aroma of grilled meat.
