"What kind of transactions?" Audrey asked with some curiosity.
"Miss Audience, it depends on what knowledge you need in those areas." Facing Audrey Hall's inquiry, Lynn displayed a confident smile and calmly introduced, "For example, understanding the characteristics of low-level paths like witches and secret worshippers, which tend to lean towards corruption and evil, can help you better protect yourself. Also, knowledge related to the spirit world, various extraordinary creatures, some buried history, and even..."
Lynn paused for a moment, as if hesitating, before continuing, "Regarding numerous hidden entities in mysticism, those mysterious or evil beings, and various secretive organizations within the Beyonder domain, I also have a considerable understanding. Although Miss Audience may not join those organizations or worship those entities, having more knowledge for self-defense is still a good choice."
"That sounds intriguing." Audrey's eyes lit up even brighter than before, clearly interested in what Lynn described.
"Mr. Peeker, do you really have a deep understanding of hidden entities in Mysticism?" Xio suddenly interjected.
"Basically, I have a general understanding of the hidden entities in Mysticism, but the depth varies," Lynn replied with a smile, glancing at Xio. However, he saw a potential client and naturally inquired, "How about you? Are you interested in this knowledge?"
"Not exactly interested, uh..." Xio scratched her head, not sure how to explain. She couldn't exactly say that she recklessly uttered a certain hidden entity's true name and might have attracted its attention. That would sound too foolish.
After struggling for a while, Xio could only say, "Mr. Peeker, have you heard of an existence called the Fool?"
Upon hearing this, Audrey Hall almost choked, but fortunately, she was a mature spectator, and in the end, she restrained her expression, still wearing a smile without showing any difference.
However, Audrey then glanced at Klein opposite her with a slight sense of confusion. As a mind reader, she observed that when Xio mentioned the name "Fool," the gentleman opposite her seemed to have a significant emotional fluctuation.
Although he quickly restrained himself, Audrey caught it, sparking her curiosity almost instantly, and various speculations emerged in her mind.
'Could Mr. Peeker's companion also know Mr. Fool?
No, if he only knew, his emotional fluctuations wouldn't be so significant. Could this gentleman have experienced something related to Mr. Fool, or even... be a follower of Mr. Fool?'
Audrey Hall speculated enthusiastically. As the most devoted believer in Mr. Fool in the Tarot Club, Audrey Hall never doubted the existence of many followers of Mr. Fool in this world. At this moment, she also began to speculate in this direction.
On the other side of Audrey, Klein, who had barely controlled his expression and body movements with the help of the Clown's ability, felt complex and uncomfortable at this moment.
He knew that just now, due to his astonishment caused by being surprised, there might have been emotional fluctuations that Miss Justice could have captured.
'But even if Miss Justice noticed my relationship with Mr. Fool, it doesn't matter. After all, I can be a follower of Mr. Fool...' Klein thought to himself, and then heard Lynn repeat with a slightly puzzled tone,
"Fool?"
Naturally, Lynn had noticed the changes in both people's emotions. Having prepared himself psychologically and even subliminally suggested, he perfectly controlled himself, even momentarily showing a puzzled expression.
Lynn then looked at Xio and asked, "I have never heard of an existence called Fool in the mysterious domain, but it's possible that the name I know is different from what you know. Do you have more detailed information about this Fool? Such as his honored name? Maybe I can identify which entity this is from his honored name." There was a hint of curiosity in his tone.
Upon hearing Lynn's words, Klein could almost guess the subsequent development. This made him feel embarrassed from the bottom of his heart, as if his behaviors after drinking had been recounted by a friend, and he almost wanted to dig out two layers of villas on the spot.
Fortunately, after the astonishment just now, Klein had calmed down his emotions again, and he could barely control himself with the Clown's ability, appearing calm and introverted as usual.
The theatricality in the room at this moment was almost excessive, except for Fors and her little friend Xio.
"Yes!" Xio nodded, then hesitated, finally thought of the fact that she had recited even the Turani von Helmosuin's manuscript of the old Hermes language, and decided to re-narrate it in Loen language. But before she could speak, Lynn interrupted her.
While handing Xio paper and pen from his pocket, Lynn smiled and said, "Just write it in Loen language. Although theoretically, speaking out the honored name of hidden entities in normal languages may not have an effect, for the names of such high-level entities, it's safer to write them down, isn't it?"
Not every language can pronounce the honored names of gods to pray effectively. Generally, only languages such as Hermes, Old Hermes, Giant, Elven, and others that have communication with mysterious powers can establish a connection between believers and gods. Common languages like Loen are usually ineffective even if the name of an evil god is pronounced.
Of course, if you are particularly unlucky and attract the attention of the gods, that's another matter.
But there is no problem if it is copied down in a normal language. Official Beyonders usually do it this way. Otherwise, every time a new evil god is recorded, there would be a doomed official Beyonder.
'He is being very cautious, not as easygoing as usual...' Klein muttered in his heart, somewhat surprised but not too amazed.
After all, someone like Lynn who possesses extensive knowledge and hidden secrets may appear easygoing on the surface, but in the areas where caution is necessary, he is indeed very cautious. Otherwise, he wouldn't carry so many scrolls even though he thought the ambassador incident was over.
