Wandering Mysterious Lord

Chapter 15: Chapter 15: Old Friends



N/A: For those who don't know the LOTM lore, Klein = Zhou Mingrui, Roselle = Huang Tao, Evernight = Amanises 

Amon had long returned from the Duoluo Continent and was very happy with this strange fluffy and emerald bird. Very big and fluffy. For a Lord of Mysteries, he was truly unique. Bi Ji was the name of this bird. 

If the Celestial Worthy of Heaven and Earth had come back from the dead, then no god would have a good time. This was the same Celestial Worthy that everyone hated because he was an asshole. So much so, that as long as he attempted to revive, the other gods would press down hard on his coffin lid.

If Amon hadn't been transmigrated, then Klein would have been the one to suffer. Although Amon did arrange for a happy ending for Klein and his family. Klein had officially joined the Transmigrator Club VIP as a Sequence 3 Scholar of Yore.

Two sequence 0 gods, a pillar and a demi-god. Truly the best friends among transmigrators. Unfortunately one of them just had to go to the moon huh? Amon rubbed his nose as he set the bird down on the castle floor. A quick scan of the group chat surprised him, someone had finally found a way to change their nickname and now everyone was happy. 

Bah, how boring. 

[Rin] [Finally freed from that name!]

[Ei] [My honor has been restored]

[Kiana] [Hmph! No more!]

[Mobius] [Does anyone know how Amon's pet hunting trip went?] 

[Gudao] [Honestly at this point do we even want to know? I don't even know If I'll survive, humanity has already been razed to the ground.]

[Luke] [Knowing Amon he's probably already back home.]

[Amon] [I would like for you to remember. I am not the Amon you all think off. Don't tarnish my name just because I share the same aesthetics and name. Plus I do have casual clothes ok?]

[Amon] [IMG1232.png]

[Luke] [Why do you look like you're about to hit the casino?]

[Mobius] [....]

[Amon] [I've got a game to play with some friends?] 

[Kiana] [You have friends? Can we see some proof?]

[Amon] [... Be careful, lest I sic the hounds of fulgrim on you. I'm quite sure you wouldn't want to have prolonged exposure to the femboy loving baboon.]

Amon sighed as he waved his hands causing the entire gloomy fog filled place to change into a hospital warm house from the modern days of his memory. His invitation should have gotten across soon.

A few knocks on the door of the castle as he waved it open. 

Lights turned on as the long mottled table shifted into a round oval shape with cupholders and snacks. 

The veiled lady smiled and greeted him "Hello Amon. It is still quite strange to see an almost identical twin of "Amon"" Amon shrugged "Honestly blame the parents of my body for thinking Amon was a good name."

She took a seat as she enjoyed the modern day vibes of Sefirah Castle. The next to come in was Klein who had come in rubbing his hands and flipping divination coins only to realise that inside the Sefirah Castle, all divination was useless to prevent cheating. 

The three of them sat down while Klein shuffled the cards. A boisterous laugh echoed through the place as they glared at the raggedy man. 

"Huang Tao, you're late and stop acting like an idiot. Today's game is poker."

Amanises chuckled as the cards were dealt smoothly by Klein. "What's your buy-in collateral?" 

Zhou Mingrui smiled and took out a singular preserved diary page. "Limited edition, Roselle's Diary page from one of the earliest lost pages. I've already read it." 

Huang Tao's face darkened and sank as Amon counted the chips before moving them over. "Quite a hefty buy-in, Zhou." 

Amon stared at Amanises as she too took out a legal document regarding the birth certificate of a man named Leonard Mitchell. Amon, Klein and Huang Tao stared... "Did you just...?" 

Amanises snorted "He's part of my church, therefore my property." Amon handed over the chips while looking at Huang Tao. Huang Tao's face scrunched up, "I've just realised, I'm still dead and sealed." Huang Tao stared for a bit before his face lit up. 

"I'll put my daughter as collateral!" 

Amon/Amanises/Zhou Mingrui: "SCUMBAG"

Huang Tao reeled from the rejection as he softly pouted "How come Amanises get's to put Mitchell as collateral but when I do it, I get yelled at." 

Amanises raised her giant scythe before putting it down as the bird in the corner screamed in fright. "Please don't kill me."

The fight stopped as the three transmigrators wondered how a bird got into the Sefirah Castle. 

Amon looked the bird before asking "You can talk?" Amanises stared at Amon, "A bird got into the Sefirah Castle and your first response is "YoU CaN TAlK?" Huang Tao got up and stared at the bird "Buddy, I'm pretty sure this is the common trope where an animal can transform into human." 

Zhou Mingrui sighed as he asked "Brother, we can talk about the talking bird and it's origins during the game. Money! Surely you were buried with a few pounds?" 

Huang Tao sighed as he scribbled an IOU as Amon handed over the chips. Amanises glanced at her cards before asking. "So where did this bird come from? We haven't seen you at all since you disappeared. Our only hope was our meet ups in the Sefirah Castle." 

Amon grinned and put the bird he had taken as collateral. The said bird could only hope to disappear in the battle between gods. 

Amon told the group about how we was bored and found this chat group that could connect worlds like the novels. Huang Tao and Zhou were instantly hooked "Nice! And this must be the bird that came from another world?" 

Amon nodded as he raised Amanises without looking at the cards. "I was bored and Sefirah Castle was feeling lonely without my blessed visiting. She has her own life in the Xianzhou Loufu." 

Amon stared at the bird intently "You can transform can't you?" A shine of light as a gentle lady in green with glasses appeared. Huang Tao held his palm open as Amanises and Zhou both placed a chip onto his palms. 

"Told you. Never doubt me." 

Amon nodded "Cool. I got a talking green transforming bird lady for a pet." Zhou already gave up the round and folded while Huang Tao called. 

Amon glanced at his cards while maintaining a straight face as the cards on the board gradually came out. Amanises was happy with the pot while Huang Tao decided to raise again. Amanises soon gave up while Amon pushed everything in. 

"I learnt this from a man named after a rock." 

"IT'S ALL OR NOTHING" 

Huang Tao grimaced "You asshole. Feigning weakness and then trapping me?" 

Amanises grinned as Huang Tao folded under the pressure. "Show! Show the winner asshole!" 

Amon flipped over a dud as Huang Tao writhed like a bug under the pain. It reminded them of that video of a the angry monkey in the enclosure. The three all had the same face as the game went on. 

Soon the group sat at the table enjoying the small snacks and drinks that Amon had stored within the castle. Klein had filled his pockets and Amanises had gains. Amon was happy and Roselle was crying. 

Amon took advantage of the situation as he took a group photo. They were kindred souls all alone in a world where none of them belonged. 

Amon also uploaded the photo to the group chat as it soon was bombarded with messages.
