Part 2 After drafting the opening of the document, Barton was about to add details when he suddenly realized that Fernal had not submitted any materials at all. “Does he think he can apply for funding with nothing but a letter, relying solely on his relationship with the Foundation?” Barton searched across his desk and muttered in puzzlement. In his impression, Fernal was not an arrogant man. Apart from being somewhat impatient, the archaeologist could be considered a standard Loen gentleman…-

Part 1 “You have been granted an opportunity to meet His Holiness the Pope.” Barton heard a man in dark-blue bishop’s robes speak to him. No matter how hard he tried, he could not see the man’s appearance clearly. He only felt that the face seemed to be covered by a layer of grayish mist. Of course, none of that was important. As a devout believer of the Lord, being able to meet His representative on earth was undoubtedly the greatest honor Barton had ever received in his life. He…

Chapter 41: A New Journey Inside a room in an abandoned ancient castle, sunlight pierced through the gap between the heavy curtains and fell upon a pitch-black coffin. Suddenly, the coffin lid produced a grinding sound and slowly shifted to the side. With a bang, it fell to the floor. A few seconds later, Azik Eggers sat up, his expression rather blank. At this moment, he wore a set of loose pajamas popular in Loen a few years ago, looking like a nobleman who had just woken inside his own…-

Chapter 40: Where the Dream Began After returning to the real world, Alger patiently waited for the mission Mr. Fool had mentioned to arrive. On this day, wearing papal vestments and a silver-black mask, he was discussing internal affairs of the Sea God Church with Danitz, the Divine Envoy, when he suddenly saw a bishop enter. “Your Holiness, the Church of Storms has sent an emissary with two gifts to congratulate you on becoming God’s representative.” The bishop held a box made from white…

Chapter 39: Yesterday No Longer In the Southern Continent, East Balam, inside a room beside a church of the Evernight Goddess, Leonard’s consciousness returned to the real world. He remained silent for a few seconds, then picked up the cup of coffee before him, now much cooler than before, and took a gentle sip. Bitterness immediately filled his mouth, gradually clearing his mind. “Old Man, what exactly happened today?” At last, Leonard could no longer hold back and asked of his own…

Chapter 38: To Face It Amid the dark-blue waves of the Berserk Sea, which seemed as though they would never cease, the Future was like a leaf, at times thrown high and at times slapped down. In these waters, there were still some pirate ships sailing. They were already so accustomed to such conditions that they felt them as natural as the rising of the sun. After Admiral of Stars Cattleya returned to reality, she pondered for only a moment before spreading out paper and picking up her pen to write…

Chapter 37: Questions and Answers As for what her mission would be, Judgment Xio had always felt both expectant and uneasy. She was expectant because, since she had chosen to accept Mr. Fool’s bestowment, she would inevitably have to pay the corresponding price. Learning what the mission was as early as possible would prevent conjectures from arising because of the unknown—and prevent those conjectures from breeding even stronger fear. She was uneasy because she knew the reward she had…

Chapter 36: Mr. Fool’s Commission “Good afternoon, Mr. Fool.” The other members of the Tarot Club all appeared exceptionally grave. Following Miss Justice, they completed the customary greeting. After they sat down again, The Fool Klein looked around and said slowly, “I will enter slumber.” Upon hearing those words, The Hanged Man Alger, Justice Audrey, Judgment Xio, and The Magician Fors all felt as though the second boot had finally dropped. The Star Leonard, The Moon Emlyn, The Sun…

Chapter 35: A Temporary Gathering The Evernight Goddess nodded and said nothing more. She reached forward, as though pinching a corner of the void, and gently tugged. A thin layer of “night curtain” softly drifted down, covering Klein’s body and silently seeping into him. Klein quietly sensed the blessing originating from dreams for two seconds. Then he pressed a hand to his chest and bowed. Immediately afterward, he took two steps back and left the astral world. The Evernight Goddess…

Chapter 34: A Way Behind the endless curtain of shadows, in darkness where a faint shimmer of water swayed. A young man with black hair, black eyes, a broad forehead, and a thin face abruptly sat up, as though he had experienced a nightmare. Wearing a classical black robe, He stretched out His right hand, attempting to draw a monocle ground from crystal out of the “void” and place it over His right eye. But this time, He retrieved nothing. His right hand paused in midair for two seconds…
