The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 591: I Have To Rely On Myself In The End

Chapter 591: I Have To Rely On Myself In The End

Frederick had caught some clues even without any evidence.
“Justice” was unlike himself.
Frederick knew Justice well, probably better than his parents.
Justice was a pure person. He was a self-centered person and had a strong desire. It was not based on material, but based on emotion. In other words, he cherished and attached great importance to every relationship he had.
Whether it was the friendship with Frederick, the secret love for Ingrid, and the respect for Gray Professor, Justice would do anything to maintain the relationship.
Justice was the kind of person who would kill for a friend or a lover.
Of course, that included people who harbor hostility or malice toward Justice’s friends or lovers… If someone wanted to hurt them, Justice would be the first to rush up. However, Justice might also kill his friends or lovers if faced with betrayal.
The sense of danger hidden in his behavior pattern could make new friends who started to get close to him feel uneasy.
Immediately, the friends would instinctively stay away from Justice, but they did not know that Justice would treat this as an act of betrayal.
It was precisely because of this that Justice only had Frederick as a close friend.
As a member of the Melvin Family, Frederick was not a lawful good person. After undergoing and surviving the ritual of the child of divinity, his “humanity” was virtually gone.
Frederick had lost his mortal love for material desires, whether it was the desire for food or the romantic love between men and women.
Frederick no longer feared failure, nor rejoiced in success. He was not afraid of injury, nor was he afraid of death. From this perspective, he might no longer be considered a human being.
Frederick made friends, and even friends of the opposite sex, more out of a sense of “ordinary people need friends”. He imitated mortals as a rebellion against his own “Melvin” surname.
Ordinary people certainly would not become friends with Justice.
However, it so happened that Frederick was not an ordinary person.
Frederick did not act out of desire, nor shrink back out of fear. Hence, Frederick would not betray Justice at all, since he did not have the motive.
So even if Justice was dangerous as a friend, it would not affect Frederick.
Instead, such a “useful”, “solitary” and “loyal” friend was exactly what Frederick needed to play an ordinary person. Frederick could make friends with Justice attentively without worrying about the many troubles that the other party might bring.
For example, meaningless socializing, banquets, developing a social circle, etc. These did not make any sense to Frederick. Frederick needed to “have friends” rather than “having many friends”.
Compared to Justice, Ingrid was a bit more troublesome.
Ingrid was a good kid. She was innocent, pure, and kind. The only thing that should not be done was falling in love with this monster, Frederick.
Frederick didn’t know what love was. He could only try his best to imitate the “acts of love” which he read from the book and respond appropriately.
Watching Ingrid leave the barbecue store after receiving the message, Frederick looked at Justice calmly.
The person in front of him was more like Ingrid than Justice.
Innocent, straightforward, and carefree like a youth.
Frederick stared at “Justice” for a while. He saw a trace of divinity from “Justice”.
The presence or absence of this trace of divinity was the key to learning Idol Spells.
Justice would not have divinity for no reason.
So there could only be one answer.
This idiot with a bright smile like a silly dog wa​is not Justice.
I am currently in some kind of nightmare. Considering that this “Justice” wants to save me, it is probably my nightmare.
Am I dead already?
Frederick watched “Justice” with interest.
Justice is visibly relieved when Ingrid left the barbeque store. So, is his mission getting Ingrid away from me?
Why?
Ingrid couldn’t possibly kill me.
She is incapable of that.
So is there a dangerous item around her?
It’s impossible. In that case, I should be able to notice it immediately.
Therefore, the mission of “Justice” can only be [the Murder of Ingrid].
This may indicate that Ingrid will become some kind of hindrance affecting me in the future, and may even hurt me.
Frederick had no mortal feelings. He wouldn’t be hurt emotionally. Since he was already at the Silver Rank, there was no possibility of advancing to gold in the short term.
Then, what could I possibly die from?
Is it something that makes Ingrid stronger than me? Could it be the Fallen path?
That’s possible.
Ingrid was pure. She had clear and persistent desires. Once she embarked on the Fallen path, she had a chance to become a powerful demon.
Besides, there was another possibility.
“Professor…has he been researching sacred bone recently?”
Frederick spoke suddenly and asked Justice.
Thankfully Ingrid was gone. Otherwise, she would have noticed something was wrong at the first moment.
Of course, the real Justice wouldn’t know the answer to this matter.
Not to mention, “Justice” was not yet a student of Gray Professor.
Even if Justice was a student of Gray Professor, “Justice” just learned that he had the adaptability of [the Skull of Honesty]. This could also in turn prove that Justice did not learn this matter before.
However, it did not matter if Justice could not understand it as long as “Justice” knew.
Since he entered the nightmare from the future, he probably investigated Frederick.
“It seems so.”
Unsurprisingly, “Justice” replied without any precautions, “I remember it as ‘the Fearless Bone’, but I don’t know exactly when.”
—the Fearless Bone.
I see.
Frederick narrowed his eyes.
He knew that Gray Professor had been collecting the Fearless Bone.
Not long ago, the Gray Professor collected all [the Fearless Bone] fragments, which he seemed to be trying to fix it.
So is it possible that if Ingrid hadn’t died, then she would have been used to “hatch [the Fearless Bone]”?
Probably.
“Listen, Justice.” Suddenly, Frederick said, “Don’t respond to me, and don’t ask me anything. Just listen.”
“I am currently 16 years old. The key is [Immature Wolf Wine, Second, Snowy Cotton]. I’ll repeat it. Listen carefully. It’s three words: [Immature Wolf Wine, Second, Snowy Cotton].”
“If Ingrid accepts the sacred bone transformation of Gray Professor, then everything is fine. However, if she becomes a demon, then she will be a demon who tends to be [love] or [exclusive]. Her essence will be concepts such as [cage] or [imprisonment].”
“The identity of [Gray Professor] is a fake name. His real identity should be a werewolf. I speculate that he may change his name to [Professor Wolf].
“One occult knowledge is, [‘the Wolf of the Valley’ and ‘Tragedy Writer’ are actually the same deity].
“Farmers in the Papal Kingdom and the United Kingdom would deceive their children by telling them that the wheat fields are dangerous because wolves hide in them, which will cause the wheat to bend and fall over when the wind blows. This was originally meant to prevent the children from trampling on the wheat seedlings, but over time people began to believe it to be true.”
“They believe that this [wolf] is the Deity of Harvest, the soul of the grain, and is the so-called ‘the Wolf of the Valley’. It is usually represented by a black wolf with its tail down… Its counterpart is a white dog with its tail up, symbolizing wheat’s albinism. When a farmer is injured in the field, he will be said to be ‘bitten by a white dog’. Some old farmers in the United Kingdom will ask the carpenters in the village to carve a heavy-tailed black wolf idol sculpture and place it in the center of the wheat field as a ritual to pray for a good harvest.”
“However, ‘the Wolf of the Valley’ is not a real deity. It is a myth and legend created by the Tragedy Writer to advance to the Gold Rank before the deity’s ascension. The records about the Wolf of the Valley revealing divinities and blessings are times when the Tragedy Writer appears.”
“Yes, Tragedy Writer is the sublimated deity of werewolves because wolves and wine are the essences of grain. ‘The Drunk Madman’ can be understood as ‘a man in wolf’s clothing’…”
A sudden earthquake came from below Frederick as he revealed the truth to this point.
Frederick suddenly realized something.
Glance sideways at Ingrid, watching her being buried by the building.
So Frederick immediately said in a hurry, “Also! Don’t try to seek power from Tragedy Writer through ritual… He is a peerless ritualist himself, and the sacrifices and gains of ritual will inevitably be distorted by him!”
“When you see me again, tell me the key! I’ll tell you the rest of the truth—”
Frederick hadn’t finished speaking.
Husky and Thirteenth Fragrance completed the main mission of [Break out of the second dream.] at the same time.
The world in front of them was instantly changed.
Husky looked bewildered.
