Chapter 203: The Fool Decides to Pretend He Knows Nothing

It was already known that Lynn was aware that the Roselle diary was written by a transmigrator.

Secondly, Mr. Fool had always been collecting Roselle's diary and evidently could understand its contents.

Finally, although Lynn always claimed not to be very smart, he was actually extremely observant.

'No, I can't be so hasty. Mr. Fool being able to read Roselle's diary at most only means that He is also a transmigrator... But if that's the case, as a fellow transmigrator, if I don't seek help from the Fool regarding transmigration but instead seek help from another transmigrator, it would appear very strange.' Klein struggled internally, feeling that his Fool persona was about to be exposed.

But there was nothing he could do. He couldn't possibly not tell Lynn about transmigrators in that previous situation. As long as Lynn knew this information and combined it with his connection to the Fool, it wouldn't be very difficult to deduce his Fool identity.

'But Lynn hasn't mentioned anything about this in the past few days...' Mr. Fool's heart was actually already screaming.

To be fair, Klein wasn't entirely against revealing his identity to Lynn. After all, Lynn's other half, Lynn the Angel of Secrets, probably already knew, and Klein didn't worry that Lynn would treat him differently. He trusted Lynn's character, at most, Lynn might get a little angry and tease him a few times.

However!

As soon as he thought of the times during the Tarot Club meetings where he played both the Fool and the World in front of Lynn, and his various performances as the Fool, Klein had an urge to cover his face.

It was simply too embarrassing!

It was like playing a role-playing game; if no one knew who you really were, you could have a lot of fun. But if your friends knew who you were while you were playing, most people would feel embarrassed and humiliated.

Klein now had the urge to dig a three-room apartment on the gray fog with his toes.

But he restrained himself, quickly smoothing his emotions and making a decision.

That was to act naturally.

As long as Lynn didn't voluntarily expose the matter, Klein would pretend it didn't exist.

'As long as I act like it doesn't exist, I won't die of embarrassment.'

'And this way, it can also avoid the situation where Lynn didn't actually notice, but I accidentally expose myself.'

With this thought, Klein's gaze fell on the pages of Lynn's diary in his hand. 'As for this page of the diary, after this Tarot Club meeting ends, I'll copy a version for Lynn and translate it for him.'

Klein knew that in the current situation where his disguise was shaky, the best course of action was to act like this diary didn't exist and use other means to divert Lynn's attention to strengthen his disguise.

But Klein couldn't do that. Even if the Fool's identity was exposed, he would only feel embarrassed. But this page of the diary recorded Lynn's past and involved two important people to Lynn. Under these circumstances, Klein couldn't hide it.

With a decision made in his heart, Klein calmly set down the two pages of the diary and said, "You may now communicate freely."

—By the way, although Klein had a lot of inner thoughts, the time he spent reading these two pages was not long, about the same as usual.

After announcing the end of today's reading session, Mr. Fool manipulated his World smurf account to raise a hand and look at Sun, Derrick, asking, "Mr. Sun, do you know anything about the King of Angels?"

Klein knew very well that directly asking about the King of Angels in the Tarot Club as the World would increase the likelihood of exposing his identity, but at this point, he didn't care much anymore.

Self-deception aside, Klein couldn't really deceive himself.

While asking the question, Klein glanced at Lynn, whose expression was normal. However, as someone who knew his friend's playful nature very well, Klein detected a hint of anticipation as if watching something interesting.

Klein: ...

Klein's manipulation of the World almost faltered for a moment but he stubbornly decided to act as if he hadn't noticed anything, just controlling the World to look at Little Sun Derrick, waiting for his answer.

"King of Angels?" Little Sun was stunned for a moment, then nodded, and without waiting for the World to ask for a price, he started talking:

"I have read about this in some ancient texts. It is said that when the Almighty God who created everything gazed upon this world, many angels surrounded Him. Among them, the leaders of all angels, the closest to God's throne, were the eight Kings of Angels. However, I don't know more. The texts I read didn't contain more detailed records about these eight Kings of Angels."

Obviously, in Little Sun's view, this wasn't something that needed to be kept secret and could be freely shared with other Tarot Club members.

After all, during the Tarot Club meetings, they often shared some relatively unimportant information, and in Little Sun Derrick's view, the information he knew about the Kings of Angels didn't have much value. Perhaps Mr. World already knew it.

Little Sun, I haven't even mentioned the reward yet, how could you... This really makes it hard not to want to exploit your generosity!

Mr. Fool suppressed the slight guilt and accepted Little Sun's selfless sharing.

The eight Kings of Angels closest to the throne, this matched the content of Lynn's diary. Wait, since Medici is a future King of Angels beside the Creator of Silver City, then what about Lynn? Could he also be one of the Kings of Angels? And what about Sasrir...

Klein suddenly realized that he might have underestimated Lynn's post-transmigration identity, which might be even more outrageous than he thought.

"Mr. World, why did you suddenly ask about the Kings of Angels? Did you encounter something related to them?"

Miss Justice Audrey couldn't help but ask. Although Little Sun Derrick had only briefly mentioned the Kings of Angels without revealing more information, the description "the closest to God's throne" was enough to pique Miss Justice Audrey's interest.

In fact, not only her, but even The Hanged Man Alger also looked at the World, evidently interested in this matter as well.

After a brief contemplation, Klein controlled the World to say, "I encountered something related to the War Angel, Medici. He is one of the eight Kings of Angels, so I wanted to learn more about this topic."

"Does anyone know anything about this War Angel?"
