Amid Miss Justice's greetings, Cattleya remained a calm bystander as before, not getting too involved and seemed to be still an outsider to the party.

She watched as Miss Justice and Miss Magician each took out Roselle's diary and paid off their previous debts. Then, she carefully glanced at Mr. Fool, but she still couldn't see more through the strange gray fog. Her deep purple eyes could only reflect the clothes that were definitely materialized.

Holding the three pages of Roselle's diary, Klein didn't wait to read them as usual. After all, he had touched and used a "0" level seal, witnessed what the "uniqueness" of an extraordinary path looked like, and effectively intimidated this artifact. He thought that no matter what Emperor Roselle wrote, it would be difficult to shock him too much.

“Unless he was blessed by a powerful person with unique abilities and temporarily became a woman…” Klein joked in his mind and looked around the bronze table with interest.

Hmm, Ms. Hermit's curiosity is different from that of Ms. Justice. She seems to attach particular importance to the matter in Roselle's diary? Klein retracted his gaze, wrote down his discovery, and then casually read the brown parchment in his hand:

"On April 22, we are going to go in there and explore the abyss."

"On April 23, we followed the dark ocean, penetrated the thick fog, and arrived at a mountain that looked like a monster. Behind it was endless black fog that seemed to cover a continent.

"But if you look down at the bottom of the mountain, you'll feel like there's no end, no limit. I jokingly told Edwards that if I jumped off the cliff here to commit suicide, I might never reach the ground, but would just keep falling."

Seeing this, Klein almost raised his eyebrows. He couldn't believe that after seeing the abyss, Roselle dared to organize his knights and sailors to explore the border area.

“Isn’t he afraid of death? Rumor has it that it is a place that will corrode everything and cause all living beings to fall! At this stage, Roselle is definitely not at Sequence 4, and is not a demigod. He is at most Sequence 5, or maybe even lower… If it were me, I would definitely turn the ship around immediately and report to the church…” At this moment, Klein once again deeply realized how huge the gap between him and Roselle was.

In addition, Roselle's description of the border of the "abyss" reminded Klein of the mysterious stone door in Amon's Tomb. After it was touched by the "doll" of Archbishop Horamick of the Church of Steam and Mechanics, it presented a similar scene.

I wonder what Russell will find there... At least he didn't die from this exploration, and he lived a wonderful life afterwards... Klein lowered his eyes and read the rest of the diary page:

“On April 24, we descended along the mountain and tried to go deeper.

"The black fog was cold and slippery, as if it could penetrate flesh, blood and soul. Haha, fortunately, some items on the Black Throne can effectively resist this corrosion, otherwise I suspect that my Apocalypse Knights and I would all become members of the Franca Dance Troupe. (Note 1)

"It's very quiet here, we didn't find anything."

“On April 25, we saw the demons, but all that remained of them were their rotting corpses.

"Behind the jagged black rocks, beneath the mud that can hardly be called a road, in various normal and unimaginable places, there are different demon corpses.

"It was as if they had suffered the same death at the same moment."

"April 26th, either corpses or silence, there is no end in sight.

“Those items on the Black Throne are beginning to show signs of corrosion.

“I have rarely felt scared in recent years, but here, the fear of the unknown is like an invisible hand, tightly squeezing my heart.

"We must leave! We must return! We cannot stay any longer!"

What happened next? Did Emperor Roselle escape the border of the abyss very smoothly, or did he encounter something else? What did the changes there symbolize? A fierce war? Klein turned to the second page with subconscious expectation, but regretfully found that there was no connection between the previous and the next:

“On May 8, my lovely Bernadette is almost two years old. She is getting more and more adorable as she grows older. She is indeed a little girl who inherited the excellent genes from me and her mother.

"Listening to her clear voice calling daddy and watching her lively figure, I suddenly felt a sense of satisfaction.

"Since I came to this world, I have done many things, some of which can even be said to be shameful, but I do not feel ashamed, nor do I regret it. This is partly because I am a person who finds it difficult to control my own desires and is easily influenced by the surrounding environment. Haha, I must thank fate that I have never encountered the 'Apostle of Desire' of the 'Devil' path. Otherwise, according to the records, I would definitely be suppressed by the Beyonders of this sequence, and I might even be killed instantly.

"On the other hand, I still feel alienated from this world. My father and mother in this life are very good to me, and I try my best to make them proud. However, I know that my feelings for them are very weak. Similarly, this is how I feel about Matilda. I feel more possessive than emotional.

"I have to admit that my mentality is like playing a virtual reality role-playing game. My parents, wife, brothers, and friends are just NPCs. I can invest some emotions in them, but I won't really take them to heart. So, I can participate in all kinds of decadent parties without guilt, and I can deal coldly with my former acquaintances, just like when I played Antiquity, I could slaughter an entire village for a chicken.

“But after Bernadette was born, I found that I felt more at home in this world and was no longer so alienated.

“This is my child, a living child.

“Maybe this is what they call maturity?”

Without children, I can’t experience this feeling. No, I don’t even have a girlfriend... But I have to be wary of the mentality mentioned in the emperor’s diary... Just because it didn’t exist before doesn’t mean it won’t appear in the future. The higher the sequence, the more divinity there is than humanity... Klein sighed silently and turned to the third page of the diary:

"January 6th, a new year, a new beginning.

“After being promoted to ‘Craftsman’, I’m finally able to do that!

“That was the mysterious silver medal in my memory. It’s likely that it caused me to travel through time!

"In fact, after becoming a 'universalist', I have completely recalled its appearance, and the strange symbols and patterns on its surface. But at that time, I could clearly sense that I could not imitate a similar item."

“On January 9, after several failures, I finally succeeded.

“Holding this silver medal covered with strange symbols and patterns, I tried hard to infuse it with spirituality and inspire it.

“An endless gray fog seemed to appear before my eyes, but nothing happened afterwards.

“Is it because of the material, or is it because of the lack of necessary steps?”

"On January 10, I restored my state according to my memories of my pre-crossing experience. I thought I was no longer lacking anything. However, the mysterious silver medal still only allowed me to see strange gray fog and could not help me accomplish anything.

"If this doesn't work, how did I manage to travel through time successfully in the first place?

“I have temporarily given up trying and destroyed the silver medal. Perhaps when I become a High-Sequence Warrior and a Demigod, I will be able to decipher the meaning of those patterns and symbols and figure out the mystery of the time travel.

"Well, I can definitely become a demigod! I am the protagonist of this era!"

Grayish-white mist? After the emperor copied the mysterious silver plate from Earth, he saw an endless grayish-white mist! Klein's pupils shrank as he read the diary.

Right under his feet, there was an endless gray fog that seemed to have never changed!

"Could it be that the Emperor and I's journey through time are both related to this mysterious space? But why can't the Emperor enter, but I can? According to the Emperor's diaries in the last stage of his life, he certainly didn't solve the secret of the silver medal. Otherwise, when he was most desperate and crazy, he would have wanted to come here and would have used this place as a support... Klein raised his head and his eyes fell on the outside of the ancient palace.

He remembered that deep in this mysterious space, there was a staircase of light leading to heaven, which vaguely corresponded to its own sequence.

The stairs seemed to be built for giants, and the destination was a layer of gray mist floating in the air, which seemed to be supporting something.

Where are the secrets of Emperor Roselle and I's journey through time hidden? Klein made the diary in his hand disappear, leaned back in his chair, and said in a normal tone:

"You can start now."

"Sun" Derrick originally planned to purchase the Sequence 6 potion formula behind "Sun Priest" in advance, but Elder Lovia's release made him temporarily abandon this plan. He couldn't wait to tell the whole story, hoping to get the necessary guidance.

Considering that this was the transaction stage, he forced himself to suppress the impulse in his heart and continued to wait in silence.

Little "Sun" is worried... Something happened in Silver City? "Justice" Audrey looked away thoughtfully, and also did not ask for anything.

At this time, Alger, the Hanged Man, looked around and took the initiative to say:

"I need the potion formula for 'Ocean Songster'."

Sure enough, he already has Sequence 6 and is a "Wind-loving One"... Isn't he a member of the Church of Storms? Why is he looking for the potion formula of the "Ocean Singer" outside? It is much easier to obtain it from the inside... Did he want to hide a secret from the Church of Storms, or was he just pretending to be a member of the Church of Storms before? "Hermit" Cattleya instantly had a lot of guesses and nodded gently:

"I can keep an eye on it for you."

Seeing the Hermit's response, Alger asked:

"Ma'am, what do you need?

"I can collect clues in advance so that I can exchange them for potion formulas later."
