Secret: The undead do not die in the fire

Chapter 23 Lover of Justice

"Mr. Black."

Audrey sat down next to the ember and introduced herself gracefully, "My name is Audrey Hall."

The previous discovery made Audrey more certain of her guess.

There is a high possibility that this gentleman is a 'lover'.

This made Audrey excited and nervous. She was excited that she met the members of the Tarot Club in real life so soon.

And this is why she was nervous, because she didn't know exactly who Yu Jin was.

As a spectator, she actually knew that she shouldn't have approached and said hello so rashly.

This would break her identity as a member of the audience and put her at the centre of the 'stage'.

But the girl's strong curiosity still drove her forward.

By the time she realized all this, it was already too late.

However, judging from what Yu Jin had learned about the Church of Darkness at the previous Tarot Conference, he should be an extraordinary person affiliated with the Church of Darkness.

Even if not, his relationship with the Church of Darkness must be extraordinary.

After all, he was able to get the potion formula from the Church of Evernight through his connections.

"Hello, Miss Hall."

Yu Jin looked the girl up and down, nodded slightly, and asked politely, "How can I help you?"

He recognized this as the girl who had secretly observed him at the race meeting last time.

"No, I'm just curious."

Audrey pointed at the rings on Yu Jin's hand and asked curiously, "I want to know the origin of these rings. Hmm~, or do they have any special meaning?"

"terribly sorry."

When Yu Jin heard Audrey's question, he looked apologetic and said, "Actually, I don't know much about these rings. After all, I'm just a beginner in this area."

"So, would you mind explaining it to me, Mr. Black?"

Audrey smiled sweetly, with even a hint of teasing and cunning in her eyes.

At this moment, she was almost certain that Blake was her lover!
Because the tone and voice of these two people are almost exactly the same.

"Mr. Lover is still as modest as ever."

Audrey thought.

"What do you want to know?"

Yu Jin pondered for a moment, then spread out his palms and asked.

"Hmm~, like this one."

Audrey pointed excitedly at the cat-shaped ring on her little finger.

"Silver cat ring."

Yu Jin said slowly, "It's a silver ring made in the image of a leaping cat. In the age of gods, or in other words, when gods still walked on earth, it was said that there was an old cat that could speak human language. It was an undead cat with the voice of an old woman, like a phantom."

"Eh?"

Audrey blinked after waiting for Yu Jin to continue.

What happened to this immortal cat?
She thought this was the beginning of the story, but it turned out to be the end?
"Like I said."

Yu Jin met the girl's puzzled look and said, "I know very little about this either."

"What about these two?"

Audrey puffed up her face. She didn't believe what Ember said.

Thinking that Yu Jin was deliberately speaking only half of the sentence, he pointed to the two snake-shaped rings.

"Greedy Gold Snake Ring, Greedy Silver Snake Ring."

“The snake is a degenerated dragon, and the gold ring is made in the image of a snake.

Snakes are known for their extreme greed, as they can swallow prey larger than themselves.

Since you are dissatisfied with the shackles attached to you, sometimes you have to make up for it by satisfying your greed. "

Seeing that Yu Jin only said half of his words again, Audrey's cheeks bulged even more obviously to show her protest to Yu Jin.

Why do you always only say half of what you want to say?

"So."

Audrey changed the subject and pointed to another ring, asking in a different way, "What about it? What is its function?"

It was a ring with intricate hollow patterns. Because it was hollow and had no decorative protrusions, it looked very ordinary - or, in other words, cheap.

"Ring of the Sun Princess, slowly restores blood... well, injuries."

"Recovering slowly..."

Audrey was suddenly stunned.

She has realized the problem.

Although I have already confirmed that 'Ash Black' is my 'lover'.

However, in the other party's eyes, I should just be a curious and unreasonable noble lady.

If that's the case, why would he introduce the function of this ring so seriously?
Just thinking about this, Audrey suddenly felt uneasy.

And the next second, she saw Yu Jin asked calmly.

"Any questions, Miss Justice?"

His voice was not loud, just loud enough for Audrey to hear.

But this also scared Audrey. Her original intention of teasing Yu Jin and trying to pretend to be a "young lady with princess syndrome" was instantly ruined.

"Justice or something..."

Audrey said weakly, "Mr. Ash, when did you recognize him?"

"From the beginning,"

Yu Jin replied, closed the book and glanced at Audrey's face.

The top of her head to be exact.

【Justice】Audrey Hall
With such a large icon, it’s hard not to recognize it.

But remembering that he was just an apprentice, Yu Jian humbly added, "I was a little skeptical from the beginning. After all, the image of a blonde noble lady is easy to recognize."

"Plus, Miss Hall has been observing me, and it seems that she has known me for a long time. But I have only been in the capital for a short time, and I am confident in my memory. I am sure that I have not met Miss Hall before."

"After the horse race, Viscount Glint suddenly invited me. Although I did attend a party he hosted before, I was not very popular there, so he shouldn't invite me again."

"So, this should also be the work of Miss Hall. You seem to want to approach me for some purpose, or to test me."

"Based on the above information, it is only natural to connect Miss Hall with justice."

"..."

Audrey Hall said frustratedly, "Really, Mr. Ash, are you also a spectator?"

According to what Yu Jin said, wasn't that just her exposing herself?

"Not really."

Yu Jin calmly shook his head. "Although I could have chosen the audience sequence at the beginning, I gave up."

"give up……"

Audrey suddenly felt complicated.

She had no choice.

Although there was another sailor, it was impossible to choose that one, so there were only spectators at the beginning.

"Can I ask a question?"

Audrey asked cautiously, "Mr. Ash, how many choices did you have at the time?"

“Sixteen.”

Ember glanced at the girl and replied.

"16..."

Audrey opened her mouth, then lowered her head with mixed feelings, saying that she didn't want to say anything now.

There are only 22 sequence pathways in total, and ordinary people are extremely lucky to get a sequence 9 potion even from one of them.

Embers, on the other hand, has 16 options!

A total of 16 kinds!
With these conditions, you tell me that this is just an ordinary fallen noble from the border?
