"Mr. Moretti, I might know what you want to ask."

Roger didn't wait for Klein to continue speaking and took the initiative to respond:

"But I don't think this is a good time to discuss this question. As an astrologer, you can try to do divination on your question."Full novel: Secret World: The Great Clock Gehreros Pathway — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠

Klein paused when he heard this, seemingly speechless at Roger's behavior as a riddler.

But in the end, he still took out the pendulum from his arms and hung it on his hand.

Not long after, the pendulum's bob began to sway slightly.

But the swaying was irregular, sometimes clockwise, sometimes swinging in parallel, and sometimes it became counterclockwise.

"Unfortunately, my divination seems to point to an unknown mist."

Klein shook his head.

"'Attention Seeker's' Anti-Divination characteristic..."

Roger thought to himself.

He took off his hat, revealing a warm smile: "Then, it seems that today is not a good day to reveal the answer."

"I still have to talk to Lady Angelica about some things, so I'll take my leave first. I'll see you on Narcissus Street later."

Roger bowed slightly, and Klein could only step aside, making way for him.

When he turned his back on Klein and walked towards the reception room not far away, Roger pursed his lips tightly, trying to show a normal State as much as possible.

It's not that he doesn't want to acknowledge Klein, his compatriot, the problem is that he has too many debuffs on his back right now.

He's a subordinate of Amon, a candidate member of the Aurora Society, and also involved in the secret of the Pillar Level.

Although Klein doesn't know these things, if the Nighthawks notice this "new friend" of his at this stage, the decent job he just found will be ruined.

So Roger deliberately gave Klein a vague feeling, making it difficult to distinguish his Background.

This way, both sides can continue to have friendly contact as good neighbors and good neighbors, and neither side needs to reveal their Trump card.

Klein is a smart person. According to Roger's understanding of him in the original work, he will most likely bury the problem in his heart for the time being and wait for a suitable time to talk about it.

There are many benefits to this.

Besides not causing trouble for Klein, if he accidentally gets involved in something related to the Evil God, Klein will probably not report him to the Church immediately...

This makes Roger feel like he's a scumbag, but in order for his compatriot, the God of Poverty, to have a few more good days, this is also necessary.

After all, in the near future, the Aurora Society will also make a big splash in Tingen City... No, it's to get a big treasure from the Land of the Forsaken Gods.

That incident will completely disrupt Klein's Life Trajectory, causing him to go far away from home and start a Fool's journey with no return.

"Lady Angelica, I can do divination today, please arrange a Divination Room for me."

Walking to the front desk, Roger said to Angelica.

"Ah, okay, no problem. It's a coincidence, there happens to be a Gentleman here who is looking for a good Astrologer. You go to the second Divination Room on the left side of the corridor first, and I'll bring the person over right away.

"By the way, that's the Divination Room usually used by Mr. Hynes Vincent, but he just told me that you can use it."

Angelica smiled and pointed to the right side. Given Hynes Vincent's affirmation of Roger's divination skills, she is very much looking forward to the latter's work results at this time.

"By the way, Mr. Bonway. The Club offers free Sibei Black Tea, Southwell Coffee, and Dicy Coffee. Which one do you need?"

"A cup of Sibei Black Tea, without sugar or milk, thank you."

Roger was a Tea Connoisseur when he was on Earth—of course, compared to the milk tea that is quite popular in Loen nowadays, he still prefers the way of drinking Pure Tea.

"Okay, I'll send it to you right away."

Roger nodded and walked straight towards the direction Angelica had pointed out earlier.

Although the Divination Room is not very big, the Decoration is quite exquisite.

On the table, there is a whole set of beautifully bound Standard Tarot Cards, a Copper Mirror, and a stack of Astrological Chart Books.

"Hynes still can't forget his Magic Mirror Divination."

Roger picked up the inverted mirror and examined it for a while, secretly laughing in his heart.

This Believer of the Aurora Society seems to be very fond of Magic Mirror Divination, and he will try to promote it to people whenever he has the opportunity, even harming his own students.

This mirror is likely to have had a relationship with the True Creator, but Roger is not afraid.

With the Corruption of Yog-Sothoth, he is not afraid of being corrupted again at all. Anyway, as long as the other party's Status does not reach the Three Pillar Gods, no matter how many come, it will be like a stone sinking into the Sea.

After a while, Angelica came in with a cup of Sibei Black Tea and a cup of Dicy Coffee.

With her came a serious Middle-aged Man with a Hook Nose, Broad Forehead, and Gold-rimmed Glasses.

Judging from the man's Formal Wear and Cane, this man should not be a successful businessman, but rather someone with a Peerage.

"Mr. Bonway, this is Mr. Willis from Conston, Intersea County. He has a divination request, you can chat."

After Angelica said that, she put down the Black Tea and Coffee and left on her own.

Intersea County is one of the top three Iron Ore and Coal producing areas in the Loen Kingdom. In recent years, with the development of the country's Industry, many businessmen from the Coal and Steel Combine have made a fortune.

The man named Willis sized up Roger, Nod Slightly, but when he saw the cat on the other party's shoulder, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

Bandit obviously saw that the other party didn't like him, so he jumped down and fell asleep under Roger's feet.

"Mr. Willis, I am Mettis Bonway, you can call me Mettis.

"I am good at Astrolabe divination, Pendulum divination, and Tarot Card divination. You can make any requests."

Roger briefly introduced himself and the types of divination he is good at.

"Astrolabe divination is fine, I have been in contact with this before, I don't believe in the others."

Mr. Willis's voice was a bit hoarse:

"A week ago, I brought my little son James from Conston to Tingen to discuss a deal for Iron Ore. Everything went very smoothly at first, but three days ago, James said he wanted to experience the Bar culture of Tingen, and he never came back.

"I have tried to call the Police, and the Police Officer also conducted a search according to the missing population, but to no avail."

Roger Nod Slightly: "You want me to divine the whereabouts of Little James, right?"

Mr. Willis nodded and took a deep breath: "That's right. This is his birth date, time, and Location. I know Astrology needs these."

Roger breathed a sigh of relief. The thing Astrology fears most is that the client cannot provide an accurate birth time. Since the other party has done their homework, it also saves him a lot of trouble.

He quickly drew James's Natal Chart, and then drew a Celestial Chart on the outside based on the current Star Calendar as a comparison.

The purpose of doing this is to calculate the current environment James is in, so as to determine his Location.

Then Roger carefully examined this Astrolabe, but the more he looked, the deeper his brows furrowed.

"Hiss... The ruling star of the Ascendant has fallen into Pisces, forming a Restraining Aspect with Mars... Is this involved in a Mysticism event, and is there a Life Threatening?"

There will be another update tonight.
