The Lord Of Mysteries
Chapter 36: Simple Questions

While Audrey recalled the conversation between her father and older brother about the situation, she said in her own words, "They believe that the structure of government is too chaotic. Every election, if there is a change of ruling party, there will be a change of personnel from top to bottom. It makes things messy and greatly lowers efficiency. Not only did it cause battle losses, it also brought great inconvenience to civilians."

Klein knew very well that since there were no examples for reference, the Loen Kingdom had not yet developed into a system that examined civil servants. The political situation is still in its early stages; therefore, after each election victory, many so-called positions will be given to members and supporters.

Hmm, Emperor Roselle who did not set up such an institution at Intis did not match his personality.. Could it be that he shifted his focus to something else later on?

When the Hanged Man, Algeria, heard that he interrupted with a soft laugh.

"They believe? Then their faith was a bit slow. Maybe they've only felt the itch a year after being bitten by a black mosquito."

The black mosquito is a type of creature that lives in the southern Kingdom of Loen. It was extremely venomous, and its venom made the victim have the urge to tear their skin.

Audrey stretched out her palm and covered her mouth. Ignoring the Mens Hanging taunts, he revealed the core information of what he said, "Unfortunately, they can temporarily not find a good solution to replace this system."

Klein listened intently and felt that the topic was within the domain of his expertise. He smiled faintly and said, "It's a simple matter."

The Foodaholic Empire and the decadent countries that studied the Foodaholic Empire had highly developed successful experiences.

"simple?" Audrey came back with a puzzled question.

Although his education did not include politics, he often heard talk from his father, brother, and those around him. He had a good understanding of similar things.

Klein felt as if he had returned to the message board earlier. Compiled, he says, "Test, like a college entrance exam. Have exams open to the public. It can be divided into two rounds or three rounds. Use the most objective method to select the elite."

"But.." Audrey knew what kind of objection this was.

Before he had a chance to organize his thoughts, Klein continued, "After that, use this elite to fill Cabinet positions, district governments, city governments, and various cities. Yes, positions that deal with issues directly, such as the Cabinet Secretary.

“Different positions should be given different requirements. The second or third round can be tested by locale and region. Professional work should be left to professionals.

"For political positions such as ministers, governors or mayors, they will be left to parties that win elections. It was a piece of cake they deserved."

Algeria, which was less interested in such things, subconsciously turned its head and listened carefully. Audrey frowned slightly as she thought hard.

“No need to rush to replace everything at once. Cabinet and various agencies in staffing will be paralyzed if that happens.You can hold an examination every year or every three years. They can be replaced gradually. Finally, given the expansion of the kingdom and the resignation of salaried civil servants that will bring vacancies, you can systematically share the place." Klein fully expresses his talent as a keyboard politician. He then turned his palm out and said, "Such a design can bring a broad-minded royal elite into government. Regardless of the ruling party or who its ministers are, civil servants will allow the kingdom to maintain its basic and effective operations. "

Of course, the side effect is the birth of the eternal demon that is bureaucracy.

While considering the suggestion, Audrey asked doubtfully, "Are you implying that even if the minister were to become a monkey, the effect would not be significant?"

"No," the Algerian sidelines suddenly. "I believe that monkeys are a better choice than the current ministers."

He paused before adding, "At any rate, monkeys just need to eat, sleep, and mate. They won't come up with stupid ideas and insist on projects without brains."

Mr. Hanged Man, it looks like you have a very bad boss. Klein sat on his seat of honor and shook his head amusedly in silence.

Audrey pondered the advice Mr. offered. Fool and after a while, said in surprise, "It seems like it really might work …

"This is a very simple but effective solution!"

He looked at Klein and sincerely admired, "Fool Master, you must be an old man with extraordinary intelligence who is very experienced in life!"

… The corners of Klein's mouth twitched slightly as he stared at the Hanged Man and Justice for a few seconds in silence.

"Let's end today's meeting here."

If Miss Justice can influence her family and make a change in this matter, I can guide Benson beforehand and give him the opportunity to become a civil servant.

If thought through carefully, Benson is indeed fit for such a career.

However, it looks like Justice will not take the initiative to do so. This was because the Hanged Man and I could easily figure out which noble suggested it and basically guess his identity.

Of course, he could do it through the detour silently.

"As you wish." Audrey and Alger stood together.

Klein leaned back slightly and broke off the connection. He saw the illusory figure and escaped from the Justice and the Hanged Man instantly disintegrated and disappeared.

Above the gray fog, in the luxurious palace where the gods seemed to live, he was the only one sitting quietly at the head of the bronze table.

Klein did not plunge into the gray fog like other times to leave. This was because his mind was still quite energetic after becoming a Beyonder.

The reason why he ended the Tarot Club early was because he knew the true attitude the Nighthawks had towards the Antigonus notebook. He decided that he should look for her seriously and not sleep all the way. Doing so would make Dunn Smith suspicious of her activities at home.

Moreover, he had benefited a lot this time.

Klein sat on a high-backed chair at the head of the bronze table. His arms were leaning against the armrest as he crossed his fingers while he observed the boundless gray fog carefully. He found the place quiet as if no one had stepped into it for ten million years.

When he made the connection to summon the Hanged Man and Justice, he was completely aware of something.

That's the fact that as a Beyonder herself, she has the ability to touch other dark red stars!

However, he had no desire to try as he did not know what the identity of the newcomer was or what kind of attitude they would have. After all, not everyone like Justice or the Hanged Man has a unique personality that easily mingles and takes whatever they need. They even seem willing to hide the problem. If he were to attract someone like Dunn Smith, then the mysterious organization he had just set up would instantly be under the watchful eye of the church.

As the boss of the "evil" organization, his future will be alarming.

Klein knew that the gray fog was special. He knew it wasn't something the Beyonder could see in Dunn Smith's Sequence. But the problem was that since he had the strength of a Beyonder, he had to consider the existence of the gods.

Klein had chosen to carefully believe that the seven orthodox gods existed in reality. Of course, he believed more in the belief that these gods were only stronger than the High Order Extreme. In addition, they are under strict restrictions. At least, since the Fifth Age, apart from a few oracles, they had not appeared again.

"Heh, forcibly attracting people here is not a good thing. No one wants to be drawn into the mystery for confusing reasons.Let's wait and see how things are going in the future.." Klein sighed and stood up.

He released his spirituality and felt the existence of his body. Then, he began to imitate the heavy feeling as he fell down quickly.

The scene in front of him changed. The gray and dark red fog instantly left him. Klein felt like he had torn through an endless membrane of water before finally seeing the real world, his room in darkness.

This time, he was completely awake and seriously took the entire experience.

"Anything. There are some differences between the gray fog and the spirit world.." Klein moved his limbs and sensed the existence of his body.

After he seriously thought about the experience, he shook his head, walked to the table and opened the curtains.

Whooshing sound!

The curtains are drawn as sunlight enters, illuminating the room.

As she looked out the street at the oriel window and the pacing pedestrian, Klein took a deep breath and muttered inwardly, "It's time to get out and work.

"How should I act as a fortune teller?"

"Can't rush it. All I can do is use Spirit Vision right now…"

…

Backlund, Consort of Borough.

Audrey Hall looked at herself in the mirror. He saw her cheeks blushing with excitement and her eyes, so bright that it made anyone afraid to look at her.

He did not check all of this as he hurriedly remembered it. He took a ruby-encrusted pen and wrote the formula to the audience potion on a beautiful goat skin parchment.

"80 milliliters of pure water. 5 drops of autumn crocus essence, 13 grams of beef tooth paeonol powder. 7 petals of elves. Mature Manhal Fish eyeballs.35 milliliters of goat-horned black fish blood."

Audrey heaved a sigh of relief as she read it a few times to make sure that she did nothing wrong.

She has a desire to dance again, but reminds herself to stay in control.

After some thought, he started writing various chemical names around the formula of the potion. He then faked the page into a complicated and messy chemistry.

Yes, as long as someone doesn't read it carefully, someone flipping through this randomly won't find the details I'm hiding here! Audrey praises herself and turns her mind towards material gain.

"First of all I'm gonna go find some safe we have. Then I'll try to trade the missing piece for another one…"

"If I still can't gather everything, I can only seek help from the Hanged Person or the Foolish One?"

After some thought, Audrey closed the notebook and placed it on the small bookshelf. After which, he quickly walked to the door and opened it.

A golden retriever dog was sitting obediently outside.

The corner of Audrey's mouth curved as she revealed a bright smile.

"Susie, you completed the mission perfectly!"

"In the serial stories in the newspapers, detectives often have capable assistants.I think there should be a big dog supporting the original audience~"

…

In the basement lit only by flickering candles, Alger Wilson raised his palm and looked at it closely.

After a long time, he sighed.

"It's still magic. I can't figure out the specific details at all…"

Despite having made sufficient preparations, he failed to understand how the Fool completed the summoning…

He turned his gaze down and looked at the goat skin parchment on the table in front of him.

At the head of the yellowish-brown parchment's title, there was a phrase Hermes written in deep blue ink.

"7. Sailor."
