January 17, 2020 · 3 min read · 683 words

Seeing that Mr. "Fool" was smiling and silent, "Justice" Audrey and the others had to withdraw their gaze and stop asking questions.

They didn't see any problem with this situation of only giving hints without explanations; beings of divine level often have similar habits, sometimes giving not even hints but revelations.

In the eyes of such a big figure as Mr. "Fool", just a name is enough; our inability to understand is due to our insufficient level, so we need to ponder and try more diligently... "Justice" Audrey increasingly looked forward to becoming a "psychologist".

"...I recall that in that half-abandoned temple, there was text similar to 'Rose of Redemption'?" "Hanged Man" Alger turned his head to look at "Sun".

Derrick nodded without hesitation: "Yes, in a corner of a mural, written in a script derived from the Giant language; it took us some time to decipher."

"Script derived from the Giant language..." "Hanged Man" Alger hadn't paid attention to this detail before, but now he couldn't help but think about it.

That little boy Jack seems to have come from the Sonia Sea... Script derived from the Giant language... Alger considered and materialized a line of words.

Those words belong to Ancient Feysac, the source of the scripts of the Northern Continent countries, meaning: "Rose of Redemption."

"Sun" Derrick looked closely and was somewhat surprised: "It's very similar, only the endings are handled differently. "Mr. 'Hanged Man', is this the script of your region?"

Saying this, Derrick reproduced the words from the mural.

"Yes." Alger gave an affirmative answer. "This language itself has evolved; the one you found should be of an earlier type."

In linguistics, this type of Ancient Feysac is widely considered a characteristic of the Solomon Empire... Historian Klein gave the most correct answer in his mind.

"Hanged Man" Alger paused and said: "What about the content of the mural?"

"I wasn't responsible for that area and didn't look carefully before setting out..." "Sun" Derrick suddenly felt a bit ashamed.

Alger nodded expressionlessly: "Find a chance to clarify; perhaps the key point lies here."

"Okay!" Derrick increasingly felt that things weren't so bad.

Seeing that he had relaxed, "Justice" Audrey asked with some curiosity and confusion: "Mr. 'Hanged Man', if that little boy named Jack is indeed the child of a 'Listener' as you described, why could he communicate with 'Sun' and the others?"

After the matter of the corresponding words for "Rose of Redemption", she was completely sure that the language used in Silver City was different from Loen and from all the common languages of the Northern and Southern Continents.

And above the gray fog, everyone can communicate very fluently and without barriers, relying on Mr. "Fool"'s power... Audrey silently praised.

"Hanged Man" Alger looked at her and chuckled: "Miss 'Justice', you haven't experienced many supernatural events, have you? "Jack has already turned into such a terrifying monster; what else can't change? Believe me, sometimes language acquisition is very easy, just a matter of a second or two."

...Audrey blinked and realized that she had again exposed her lack of experience and knowledge in the mystical domain.

After this matter was settled, the Tarot gathering proceeded according to the usual steps. "Justice" Audrey looked at the top of the bronze long table and said: "Mr. 'Fool', this time I have three more Roselle diaries; I still owe seven."

Hearing this, "Magician" Fors hurriedly followed: "Mr. 'Fool', I also received a reply, and next time there will be new Roselle diaries."

"Good." Klein smiled in response.

Nearby, "Sun" Derrick suddenly felt ashamed again, because due to participating in the exploration team, he hadn't had time last week to go to the library to consult materials and remember historical details.

After the simple procedure, Klein picked up the materialized three pages of the diary and began to read with great anticipation: "August 8th. For the first time, I received an invitation to enter the White Maple Palace and attend the king's ball. "These aristocrats are damn extravagant, and the food pursues novelty: roasted swans, balls made from ram testicles..."
