"Hey, Beatrice, I'm back."

Fang Zheng pushed open the door and said hello to Beatrice who was sitting on a chair flipping through a book. Beatrice frowned when she heard Fang Zheng's voice, then looked up at him.

"You're back now? It's only been a few hours? You didn't forget..."

"Yo, Betty."

Before Beatrice could finish her words, Parker came out and greeted Beatrice. When Beatrice saw Parker, she immediately threw aside her previous indifference and widened her eyes in surprise.

"elder brother!"

"Betty!"

While calling, the man and the cat pounced on each other, and then Beatrice hugged Parker in her arms and kept rubbing him.

“Ahhh, it’s this touch, it’s this feeling…”

I never thought that Beatrice is actually a cat lover.

Seeing the fluffy Parker being rubbed on the cheek by Beatrice, Fang Zheng also stretched out his fingers and gently teased the kitten in his arms. The kitten meowed and turned over to let Fang Zheng rub its soft belly.

Oh my... Why are cats so cute? I can't help it!

Friction, friction, friction.

"Wow... I never thought Betty would be tricked by you."

After hugging Parker for a while, Betty turned around and looked at Fang Zheng with an unhappy expression, while Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders.

"How did I plot against you?"

"You know my brother, right? If you didn't know it, how could you find it so quickly?"

"No, I don't."

"I don't know him either, Betty."

Fang Zheng and Parker both denied Beatrice's guess.

"In fact, Leah and I were living a peaceful life in the forest, but this guy suddenly descended from the sky on a flying golden boat and said he wanted to talk to me. I was shocked. But the golden boat was really fast. If we used a dragon car, it would probably take more than ten days to get here from Leah and me. But the golden boat took less than half an hour... It was really shocking."

"is that so?"

Although she was skeptical about Fang Zheng's answer, Beatrice obviously listened to Parker's words, but she still couldn't let it go.

"But, it's probably been less than two hours since Betty asked you to look for your brother. If you really didn't know where your brother was, how could you have found him so quickly? Ordinary humans can't do that."

"Of course, ordinary humans can't do that."

Fang Zheng scratched the kitten's chin.

"But I never said I was an ordinary human being."

“…That’s true.”

Beatrice instinctively wanted to refute Fang Zheng's answer, but then she thought about it and realized that it was true. It was impossible for an ordinary human to kill Roswaal with one sword and destroy his soul. Beatrice knew very well that Roswaal would not be killed so easily. He had a special method. Once Roswaal died in an accident, his soul and will would be transferred to Roswaal's descendants.

In fact, this is not the first time that Roswaal has used this method to prolong his life. Logically speaking, if Fang Zheng simply killed Roswaal, he should have been resurrected as one of his descendants.

However, according to Beatrice's investigation, she was surprised to find that Roswaal was really dead, completely and totally, without leaving a trace.

Anyone who can do this cannot be an ordinary human being.

By comparison, it didn't seem so incredible that he was able to find Parker so quickly.

"So, Betty, what do you want from me?"

At this moment, Parker also raised his head curiously and asked, while Fang Zheng coughed.

"Let me explain."

Next, Fang Zheng explained the general situation of the matter. Of course, he was too lazy to repeat what happened with the clown, so he directly told Parker that he was the owner of this mansion and territory now, so he came to check the room, and then found Beatrice here, and then the other party asked him to find Parker... That was about it.

"Then you don't want to get rid of Betty."

After listening to Fang Zheng's explanation, Parker frowned and asked, while Fang Zheng shrugged.

"Normally, if it was an ordinary child, I would definitely send her home directly. But Beatrice said she couldn't leave the Great Library..."

"That's true."

Parker nodded.

"You may not know that Beatrice is different from me. She cannot absorb magic from the air. She can only maintain her existence through the magic of the Forbidden Library. If she leaves, the consequences will be disastrous."

Obviously, Parker was not stupid. Since he knew that Fang Zheng in front of him was not an ordinary person, it was better to make some things clear.

"Is there such a thing?"

Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment after hearing Parker's answer, while Beatrice nodded reluctantly.

"Well then... Beatrice can stay in the library, but I'm worried about her being alone here... Well, let me build another portal, connecting the castle and this place. This way, I can move between the two places at will without having to take a carriage or walk... Oh, it seems that they use a dragon carriage here..."

Anyway, as long as it’s not a Filo bird car, it’s fine.

"ha."

However, upon hearing this, Beatrice snorted softly and stared at Fang Zheng with dissatisfaction.

"Build a portal here? Do you know where this place is? Maybe you have some magic skills, but here..."

"Okay, done."

However, before Beatrice could finish her words, she saw Fang Zheng snap his fingers. Soon, a beam of light shot out from between his fingers and hit the wall next to him. Then, a wooden door appeared out of thin air on the originally flat wall. Fang Zheng reached out to open the door and stuck his head out to look outside.

"Well, it happens to be the third floor of the castle. Fortunately, there are not many people here. If you want to go to the castle in the future, just open this door."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng turned around and found that Beatrice and Parker were staring at him in amazement, as if they had seen something incredible.

"What's wrong?"

"How did you do it?! How could you possibly get through here and the other dimensions?!"

Beatrice immediately jumped up and screamed. You know, what she was guarding was not an ordinary library, but a forbidden library. This was not an ordinary space, but a closed space. It could even be said that the inside of the forbidden library was originally a closed world, and only Beatrice had the ability to use the "anywhere door" to connect to the outside.

But even for Beatrice, she can only connect to the doors within the mansion, and she is definitely not able to achieve a fixed teleportation space over long distances!

Of course, when it comes to teleportation, many powerful people can do it, and Parker also has the ability to teleport over a certain distance, but fixedly connecting two distant spaces is another matter. Not to mention, Parker and Beatrice didn't even see Fang Zheng struggling. It seemed like he just suddenly had this idea and then did it directly? !

What a joke, this is the forbidden library! Logically speaking, only Beatrice should have control over this closed space. No one else, not even Parker, can control the forbidden library at will!

"This may be a little difficult to explain to you..."

"Disaster?"

Upon hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Beatrice jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on.

"Do you know who I am? I'm Beatrice! The Great Spirit of Yin! Magic is no problem for me!"

"Are you sure?"

"I am sure."

"Oh well……"

Fang Zheng spread his hands.

"It's actually very simple. First, let's assume that time is the X-axis and space is the Y-axis..."

“……???”

"…Because particles…and time travels through all dimensions, we can therefore know that in the fifth dimension…I say, do you want to hear me or not?"

"What on earth are you talking about?"

Beatrice was completely confused by the long string of words that uttered from Fang Zheng's mouth, whose meanings were completely incomprehensible.

What's this?

Are we talking about magic?

Are you sure you and I are talking about the same thing?

"The principles are the same. As long as you know the principles, there is no difference between magic and science."

Facing Beatrice's question, Fang Zheng chuckled.

"Do you want to continue?"

"No... Although Betty doesn't know what science is... But let's stop here."

Beatrice raised her hands in surrender.

"Then it's settled. By the way, do you need a meal? I can have someone prepare your portion and send it directly to the Forbidden Library when the time comes?"

"Um...thank you for your help."

"You're welcome. It's just an extra pair of chopsticks."

“What are chopsticks?”

"Hey, Fang Zheng."

While Fang Zheng was talking to Beatrice, Parker suddenly spoke.

"Can Leah and I live here too? Sorry, I haven't seen Betty in a long time and I want to spend more time with her."

"No problem. I'll ask Ram and Rem to prepare a guest room for you."

"Hey? Parker?!"

Emilia cried out in surprise when she heard Parker's proposal. She never thought that Parker would decide to live here even though he was just visiting.

However, Fang Zheng didn't seem to care. He just waved his hand and opened the door and went out, leaving only Beatrice, Parker and Emilia in the forbidden library.

"Parker, what are you thinking about?"

At this moment, Emilia also hurriedly grabbed Parker and complained in a low voice with dissatisfaction.

"I'm sorry, Leah, for not discussing this with you in advance, but I think this is a good opportunity."

"Good opportunity?"

"Yes……"

Facing Emilia's question, Parker hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"To be honest, I think... I just think that this guy might be able to help you solve that problem."

"Really?!"

Hearing this, Emilia shuddered all over and her eyes widened in surprise.

"Probably. I've never seen someone as powerful as him. Frankly speaking, I don't even think he's human. Although I haven't seen his true strength, I have a feeling that he's probably not much worse than the three heroes in the legend."

"Really? If that's the case, I'll go ask him for help right now...!"

As she spoke, Emilia hurriedly ran towards the door, but Parker stopped her.

"Wait, I haven't finished speaking yet."

"Anything else?"

"You should understand that this matter is not that simple. It is not as easy as asking someone to save a kitten that is stuck in a tree. So, what do you want as a reward?"

"this……"

Facing Parker's question, Emilia couldn't help but fall into silence.

"Besides, we know nothing about his identity and origins. I find it strange. It is impossible that I have not heard of such a powerful person. But I have no impression of the magic tools he uses or his name... Although I don't think he is a bad person, we still have to act with caution at this time."

"But……"

"I understand how you feel, Leah, but we have to proceed with caution, do you understand me?"

“…”

Facing Parker's question, Emilia hesitated for a long time, and finally, she nodded helplessly.

"Okay, I get it, Parker..."
