Chapter 60: Second Blasphemy Slate

"Okay." Klein said.

Alger deliberated over his words and said, "The Antigonus is an ancient family. Their history can be traced back to the Cataclysm Epoch before the Fourth Epoch and is related to the second Blasphemy Slate."

The second Blasphemy Slate? There's a second Blasphemy Slate? How many are there? Klein was surprised.

According to what The Hanged Man and Justice have said previously, the Blasphemy Slate contained the profound mysteries of the twenty-two paths of the divine. There are two of such important items, or even more?

After his recent revision, Klein even knew that the third epoch was separated into two eras: the Glorious Era and the Cataclysm Era.

"A second Blasphemy Slate?" Audrey plainly revealed her ignorance on the matter.

Alger thought and answered, "The first Blasphemy Slate appeared in the Dark Epoch, which is the second epoch where we humans struggled to survive under the protection of gods. The second Blasphemy Slate appeared at the end of the third epoch. It could even be said that its appearance symbolized the end of the Cataclysm Epoch."

"The content of the two Blasphemy Slates is kept secret by the seven major churches. I only know bits and pieces of it and that they involve the pathways to godhood, but I am not sure of the differences between them."

"Was the Blasphemy Slate that Emperor Roselle saw the first or the second?" Audrey asked curiously.

Then Alger simply replied, "The second one."

Alger continued. "During the Solomon Dynasty in the Fourth Epoch, although the Antigonus family was considered an illustrious part of the aristocracy, they didn't do anything memorable until they supported the establishment of the Tudor Empire and stood in the middle of the stage of the Northern Continent.

In that period, Antigonus, Amon, Abraham, Jacob, and others were illustrious names of the human kingdom. However, after the War of the Four Sovereigns, the Blood Emperor from the Tudor Empire perished, and they were all hunted by the seven gods.

I am not sure about the actual process, but I do know that the Antigonus family was destroyed at the hands of the Church of the Evernight Goddess. Mr. Fool, if you'd like to know more, I am afraid that you can only obtain the information from the Church of the Evernight Goddess or from a few ancient secret organizations. You know which few I am referring to."

I don't… Klein nodded while feeling bitter inside.

The Secret Order is one. Captain and Old Neil mentioned the Moses Ascetic Order. I wonder if the Psychology Alchemists count…

"Very well, I am satisfied with the payment." Klein said.

"Then, I shall ask the second question: what is the name of the subsequent potion for Spectator? Where can I find the clues?" Audrey asked.

"I'll answer the question for free because I led you on this pathway." Alger said.

"The subsequent Sequence for Spectator is Sequence 8 Telepathic. The ancient name of Sequence 7 is Psyche Analyst but is called Psychiatrist now. This is what I found out from a member of the Psychology Alchemists. I think they have quite a number of potion formulas for this pathway."

"Do you know the whereabouts of that particular Psychology Alchemist's member?" Audrey asked.

Alger gave a rare laugh. "I do. He's immersed in the seas around Sonia Island. I sank him with my own hands.

If you would like to look for the Psychology Alchemists, I have to apologize since I severed the clues.".

"Sank..." Audrey was at a loss for how to reply.

She took a deep breath and asked, "The third question. If—and I'm saying if—a normal animal were to drink a Sequence 9 potion, what would happen?"

What kind of hypothetical question is that?

Klein saw changes in Audrey's aura.

Could she have done something that stupid? Klein was astounded but didn't find it strange. After the past two Gatherings, he was certain that Miss Justice was quite an airhead.

The Hanged Man was equally dumbfounded as well and took a while to reply. "Normal animals do not have the brains of humans. They wouldn't be able to learn Cogitation in a timely manner. Therefore, it would most likely lead to immediate death or a turn into monster. However, if they survived the initial ingestion of the potion, they would become an extraordinary creature. If the potion has the ability to enhance their intelligence, they should become smarter."

"Alright." Audrey breathed out a silent sigh. "I have no other questions."

Alger similarly, he shook his head and said, "Nor do I."

"I have something." Klein spoke. "It will require your cooperation."

"Previously, I said that we would do some experiments so that you do not have to worry about being called here abruptly.

You could try a piece of ritualistic magic during your free time. It need not be too formal. As long as you are in an environment that won't be disturbed... Put four brand new candles on an altar, placed on four corners, respectively. It's best if they are candles with a sandalwood scent..."

Klein described his modified version of the luck enhancement ritual and explained how to create a spiritual environment.

Audrey listened with interest and asked, "Mr. Fool, what's the corresponding incantation?"

Alger turned his head to look at The Fool.

Klein, who was immersed in the fog, said, "The Fool that doesn't belong to this era, you are the mysterious ruler above the gray fog; you are the King of Yellow and Black who wields good luck."
