The Azure Avenger.

Alger Wilson, the "Hanged Man," held the newspaper with trembling hands, while the crew outside passionately discussed the new pirate king—Cao Ya, the "Boiler of the Sea."

They were among the firsthand witnesses to that "boiling the sea" battle.

Recalling that moment, the sea was boiling and rapidly receding, and the Hanged Man even had the thought that "I am doomed."

But in the end, he survived safely, a close call that became a topic of conversation and bragging rights for the crew.

Alger held the powerful figure who caused this scene in awe, but he never expected that he was actually a member of the Tarot Club!

Same name? Unlikely. Cao Ya is a rare name; it's too much of a coincidence… How could there be two demigods named Cao Ya? No, not just demigods…

The Hanged Man's expression was complicated. Was the new member actually an angel from the ground?

In an instant, a sense of excitement and exhilaration returned, after all, Cao Ya is a member of our Tarot Club!

Although he knew that Mr. Fool had followers of Sequence Two or higher, he had never interacted with them and lacked a real understanding of their existence.

Actually, that was Mr. Azik.

Not only is he not a follower of "The Fool," but Mr. "The Fool" is even somewhat dependent on Mr. Azik.

But that's something the Hanged Man couldn't possibly know.

Backlund, a member of the Tarot Club who learned about the matter through the newspaper, was surprised for a moment but then didn't pay much attention to it.

He also had to go to the Church of Mother Earth.

Hmph, I am a noble vampire! Such a startled expression is so embarrassing… We vampires also have angels on earth… I am even the chosen one of our progenitors, the savior of the vampire race…

Mr. Moon proudly raised his head and walked with his chest out to the Church of Harvest in Backlund. When Father Utravsky looked over with his calm and gentle gaze, he immediately shrank back, all his pride gone.

Backlund, Joewood District.

Miss Fors, the "magician," lay on the sofa while Hugh read aloud from the newspaper beside her, leaving her stunned.

“Cao Ya… Mr. Hugh, do you know him?” Fors looked bewildered. After receiving today’s newspaper, Hugh seemed very excited. In fact, Fors was also quite excited after reading about Cao Ya’s deeds.

Our Tarot Club is really amazing!

However, she never expected to hear so much about Cao Ya from Xiu.

It seems that Xiu knew Cao Ya a long time ago.

This left Fors both confused and curious. He was confused because Hugh knew someone who was more than a demigod, and curious about how Hugh knew Cao Ya.

Hugh put down his newspaper, raised an eyebrow, and looked at Fors, who was lounging lazily:

Didn't I say that?

Fors said, feeling wronged:

"No."

Xiu, you've changed. You don't tell me anything that's on your mind anymore... Hmm, how should I face Mr. Cao Ya at the gathering this afternoon?

Fors began to ponder, but also listened as Hugh recounted her story with Cao Ya.

There's nothing wrong with talking about it; we're just friends, it's a very simple relationship.

The Kingdom of Loen, the capital of East Chester County, the city of Storn.

The Hall family's territory was actually located in East Chestershire.

Audrey politely declined various banquets and salons; she had important business to attend today, namely this Tarot gathering.

Having witnessed the wonders and mysteries of the extraordinary world, Audrey was completely immersed in it, even though it was occasionally terrifying. She became a little impatient with various social obligations, but her ability as an "audience member" allowed her to control her emotions very well.

Audrey would generally decline any invitations she could, and would only attend invitations that she absolutely had to refuse.

There are far too many banquets and salons hosted by noble ladies and wives.

Moreover, Audrey wasn't interested in what they were talking about and was just giving perfunctory replies without making it obvious.

"The Boiler of the Sea," "The Strongest Pirate King"... Mr. Cao Ya is really amazing, he must be more than just a demigod... Maybe he's an angel on earth? The official conclusion should be correct... Audrey, keep it up, don't hold our Tarot Club back, you should be able to stand on your own like the Hermit, the Hanged Man, and the World.

Audrey smiled, her eyes sparkling, her beautiful eyes shining, exuding elegance and poise.

Beside her, Susie, a large golden retriever, lay on the ground with her eyes half-closed.

This big dog named Susie is also a Sequence 7 "Psychotherapist" through the "Spectator" or "Dreamer" pathway.

Due to a series of unexpected coincidences, Susie accidentally ingested Audrey's potion, but miraculously survived without harm, even digesting the potion better than Audrey.

From then on, Audrey would prepare two portions of every potion from the "Audience" pathway, one for herself and one for Susie.

Moreover, Susie is a dog, which allows her to enter many places that Audrey cannot, eavesdrop on many secrets, and is not easily noticed by others.

Who would care about a dog?

Although sometimes Audrey felt embarrassed and made a fool of herself in front of Susie.

Fortunately, Susie never mocked her.

After all, it's a dog, and its perceptions differ from those of humans in many ways.

In the afternoon, Audrey instructed Susie to guard the door and not let anyone else in, not even her personal maid, Anne.

"Woof, Audrey, leave her to me." Susie stood up, wagged her tail, and lay down at the door.

Audrey returned to bed and lay down gently, pretending to take a nap. In reality, her conscious spirit had already entered the gray fog.

“Good afternoon, Mr. Fool” Audrey greeted cheerfully.

Above the gray fog, beside the bronze table, streaks of deep red light appeared, fading into blurry figures.

The deep red light in Cao Ya's eyes faded, and Yuanbao came into view. Looking around, he saw that all the members had arrived.

He also noticed that the way the members looked at him was filled with a special light—surprise, curiosity, awe…

The only exception is the little "sun" who knows nothing.

Who told the land forsaken by God to be isolated from the northern and southern continents?

Moreover, the sun had not yet noticed the unusual behavior of everyone.

It has to be said that it's no wonder the Sun was fleeced so many times by the Hanged Man; he's really naive and doesn't have much of a scheme.

This is not a bad thing.

The members withdrew their gaze from Cao Ya, and amidst Miss Justice's greetings, everyone also paid their respects to Mr. Fool.

Cao Ya remained calm and did not speak. The current Tarot Club was of a lower level and did not have what he needed.

He seemed like an outsider.

However, he wasn't the only outsider on the field; the "Hermit" Cattleya also maintained a calm and detached attitude, without getting too involved.

Miss Justice and Miss Magician each took out Roselle's Diary and paid off their previous debts.

Under the strange gray fog, Klein held the three pages of Russell's diary and read them slowly, without any hurry.

He has experienced a great deal, witnessed many things, and learned a great deal about the secrets of the extraordinary world. He believes that no matter what Emperor Roselle writes, it will be difficult to shock him too much.

Cao Ya glanced at "The Fool" Klein, showing no interest in Russell's diary.
