After hearing the residents' wishes, a thought instantly formed in Caine's mind: "Everything seems to revolve around food." The "Turner" Aljer paused and addressed the "Sun" Deric: "You could allow individuals with this mindset to join the industry guild in Bayam, through whom they could find suitable mentors, or directly invite those with specialized skills to teach in the new Silver City, offering them generous compensation. Of course, the precondition is that you must quickly enable the residents to master the common language of the Rosedale Isles—on this foundation, you can then gradually introduce Rûn, Old Futhark, and Duthan as well." After Aljer finished speaking, the "Keeper" Gardeleia also offered her suggestion: "In addition to organizing mercenary units, you might also consider applying for public positions in the major cities of the Rosedale Isles, where you can handle extraordinary events." Although the government of the Rosedale Isles and the "Sea God" Church have received an impressive array of extraordinary traits and corresponding potion recipes from the Silver City and the Moon City, they still cannot quickly cultivate enough extraordinary individuals—those at Sequence 9 fare relatively well, as selecting individuals with sound psychological, spiritual, and physical conditions allows most to successfully absorb the potions with minimal risk of instability or madness; however, higher sequences present greater challenges, as the role-playing process often fails and requires considerable time. Under these circumstances, as long as the residents of the Silver City join official institutions, they should not fear unemployment in the foreseeable future. Of course, the Rosedale Isles government will inevitably control the number of new entrants, and thus the Silver City cannot fully resolve employment issues through this channel alone. Klein strongly agrees with the Lady of the Hidden Ones' proposal and believes it is essential to communicate this to the Divine Oracle of Daniz, urging the government of the Rosedale Isles and the "Sea God" Church to increase the number of officially recognized extraordinary individuals within a defined scope. This is not about helping the residents of Silver City and certain non-malformed inhabitants of Moon City find jobs—it is a necessity driven by the approaching end times, deepening incursions of the Outer Gods, and the steadily increasing frequency of extraordinary events. At this moment, the "Recluse" Gauthier glanced at the "Justice" lady and continued addressing the "Sun" Deric: "You now likely hold a substantial pool of liquid capital. Consider investing in the mining operations, spice estates, and plantations of the Rosted Isles, acquiring fertile lands and rich forested areas—these are currently quite affordable. Indeed, while the Storm Church still exerts influence over the islands and the new government has pledged to protect foreign-owned enterprises, many Ruin, Vosak, and Intis citizens remain unconvinced and are eager to liquidate their assets and return home." The divine messenger named Daniz has recently purchased a spice estate—Deric recalled previous reports, and suddenly felt a clear sense of understanding. Cadriya, the recluse, offered this suggestion, which inspired others. Audrey, representing Justice, immediately added: "When you go to negotiate, it would be wise to bring a few professional lawyers—otherwise, you're easily deceived. If necessary, you might also bring some city-based psychologists. Furthermore, since you're backed by a medium-sized port, you can develop a corresponding economy. Given that both the Rosted Islands government and the 'Sea God' Church lack sufficient common sense, you could establish fee-based courses for newcomers in the civic school of the New Silver City—though, you'll want to omit sections that might cause friction with the orthodox divine church. And the railway connecting New Silver City to other cities must be completed as soon as possible." "I forgot about his lack of economic foundation..." Justice Audrey reflected slightly, closed her mouth, and smiled, indicating to the young "Sun" to seek assistance from the "Wanderer" gentleman. Once Deric materialized the paper and pen and recorded the earlier suggestions, the Tarot members—Justice Audrey, Moon Emlyn, Star Leonard—began offering their ideas, often challenging one another's less mature and less practical proposals. This lively exchange continued for nearly two full quarters before concluding. Deric, gazing at the stack of papers—neither thick nor thin—could not help but smile warmly. He seemed already envisioning a bright future for the Silver City. Yet seated at the head of the weathered long table, the "Wanderer" Klein felt unexpectedly moved, his mood growing more somber: if one didn't consider the end of the world just a few decades ahead, the Silver City, as discussed, truly seemed promising. Yet, the arrival of the end cannot be delayed by human will, nor by the saints or angels. Shifting his gaze from the sheet of paper before him, Dric considered and added, "We have constructed a temple and church dedicated to the 'Fool,' and we wish to spread the faith throughout the island cities—what should we be mindful of?" The 'Hanged Man' Aljer frowned slightly and asked, "Have you composed a sacred scripture? Have you designed the liturgy and the details of prayer?" "Yes," Dric nodded firmly. These were crafted based on the miracles revealed by the 'Fool' and Dric's own understanding, supplemented by the religious texts left behind by the earlier Creator. Moreover, the Silver City has already prayed to the 'Fool' and communicated this matter—His stance is one of tacit approval. "Have you established a well-structured internal system for the Church?" Aljer inquired further. Derek instinctively glanced at the "Knight of the Fool," shrouded in layers of gray-white mist, then turned back and said: "Currently, we're mimicking the internal structures of other churches, with our Council of Six appointing a chief who also serves as the Archbishop, and we've appointed a group of residents with strong missionary zeal as bishops and priests." As for the internal institutions of the church handling extraordinary events, Silver City hasn't established any, since most of its inhabitants are extraordinary beings, and there are already corresponding organizations in place. Seeing that the "Knight of the Fool" neither objected nor agreed, but seemed to ponder thoughtfully, and restrained his desire to offer guidance, he gently nodded and said: "We can start with this approach." He paused and added: "But keep two points in mind: first, avoid highlighting the shortcomings of other churches to prevent friction, and second, honor the current prophets, since, until the 'Knight of the Fool' designates a church leader, the prophets serve as the representatives of the divine." "Thirdly, don't preach in a harassing manner... And I have serious doubts about the oratory skills of the bishops and priests in Silver City—perhaps Daniz should arrange for some professional training. Quietly listening, the 'Fool' Kline muttered under his breath. He had refrained from commenting on the scriptures compiled by Silver City because it would have been awkward, yet if he objected to certain descriptions, it might damage the image of the 'Fool.' Thinking of this, Kline added a few more internal criticisms: "Perhaps one day, Will. Onsight will read the scriptures of the 'Fool' Church and exclaim in surprise: 'When did I become an angel under the 'Fool'? And then, Leonard's grandfather, the awakened Azk, and the recovering messenger lady will follow up: 'What? Even I?'” "After discussing the matters related to the City of Silver and the City of the Moon," Elder Galadriya glanced around the room with only modest expectations: "Of you all, who has the extraordinary trait of the 'Seer' path at Sequence 3?" She had been digesting the 'Mystic' potion for some time now, and though she had received the recipe for the 'Seer Master' potion from the Moth Monastery, she was still far from securing the extraordinary traits or the primary materials—indeed, far from it. ——Although she was one of the Ten Pillars of the Moth Monastery, the resources associated with higher sequence pathways were undoubtedly more precious; even such an ancient organization could not freely expend them. Moreover, Galadriya came from the 'Dawn' lineage and had received less influence from the 'Hidden Sage' tradition, which meant she wasn't particularly trusted within the Moth Monastery's inner circles. For Gauthier, who had ascended to the rank of "Mystic" through the blood of the "Fated Serpent" and had already fully absorbed the elixirs early on, the Third Sequence should have been a relatively straightforward hurdle—yet she was stalled by material constraints, with little hope of progressing within several years, or even decades. Thus, she had to seek assistance at the Tarot Circle. "Sun" Deryk recalled the semi-divine traits held by the Silver City and slowly shook his head. At that moment, "World" Germain Sparo offered a hoarse, chuckling suggestion: "I recommend you simply ask the 'Mystic Queen.'" Bernadette has now become an Angel of the Second Sequence; if she possesses any surplus "Seer" exceptional traits, she might consider separating them out. Of course, Caine cannot be certain whether the "Wise One" elixir consumed by the Queen includes the prerequisites for the Third and Fourth Sequences. To ask the Queen? From Gelman Sparo’s response as "the World," Cadrya the "Recluse" sensed some clues, suspecting that something had occurred to the Queen. "Very well," she restrained herself from pressing further questions. Klein continued to manipulate "the World" and addressed the "Recluse" thus: "I have a long-standing commission: to gather all available information regarding the sudden revival of the 'Hidden Sage.' You may claim your corresponding remuneration now, or wait until you need it in the future." Klein remained somewhat puzzled by this matter—though it could indeed be described as a unique, sudden revival, the revival itself should have occurred much earlier. After a moment’s reflection, Cadrya the "Recluse" replied: "Understood." Following further exchanges, the Tarot gathering concluded, and the members returned to their respective realities. In the captain’s cabin of the "Future," Cadrya pushed gently at the heavy glasses resting on her nose, pondering how to compose the letter to the Queen. During this time, she strolled to the window and saw Frank Lee pitching his alcohol-free volcanic beer, brewed from marine microorganisms, to the crew. Truly proactive... Just as Gauthier had murmured this, her brow furrowed. "At the tarot reading earlier, the 'Wanderer' said that the paths of the 'Plowman' and the 'Moon' were particularly distinct—originating from the stars, more susceptible to contamination, and often receiving messages that were either true or false. Frank is indeed a remarkable figure on the 'Plowman' path. Moreover, he had previously complained that the Earth Church failed to grasp the true will of the compassionate mother." Gauthier's eyes, partially obscured by the thick lenses, narrowed slightly.
