Hearing The Fool's question, Audrey did not immediately answer as she used to. Instead, he widened his crystal eyes and glanced at The Hanged Man with a meticulous demeanor.
Algeria subconsciously subdued her body movements. After a few seconds of silence, he said, "i found two pages of Emperor Roselle's diary and have remembered the contents."
"I have one page," said Audrey, whose gaze was obscured by the fog, as if she had been removed from the conversation.
"Pretty good." Klein did not let his excitement or disappointment be noticed from his voice.
He felt happy that there were three full pages, but was also disappointed that there were only three. Their initial search for the diary was clearly easier, as all they had to do was ask through the connections and channels they were already familiar with. Collecting pages will become increasingly difficult as time goes by as it will involve more elements.
"Should we 'express it' now?" Audrey asked in a calm tone.
"Yes." Yeah." Klein just nodded.
He maintained his posture without any changes. He had to be careful in front of an audience.
As he finished his sentence, pieces of yellowish-brown goat skin parchment and a deep red pen appeared in front of Audrey and Algeria.
The two of them took their pens and began to recall the symbols they saw. They also instill emotions to express them.
Secretly, lines of text appeared on the goatskin. Some of them look right, some smooth, others oblique.
In just a minute, all the content that Algeria and Audrey had memorized had been forcibly written.
Klein willed the three pieces of parchment into his hands.
He glanced at the pages at a glance and realized that some of his grammar was wrong. There are also missing and incorrect words in the content.
But experiments have proven that incorrect word order to some extent does not affect the overall understanding of Chinese. Klein was also not afraid of losing his word as he often read web novels containing censored asterisks.
"april 8th. I stood in the bow of the Black King and spread out my hand, saying to Grimm and Edwards, 'My luck is yours to take, but you must find it first. I left all mine at the end of the Fog Sea!' They didn't understand my humor at all and even asked if I really had any other treasures. It's boring. You can't be my Four Doomsday Horsemen if it continues like that!"
"April 11th I found a nameless island that was not in a safe sea lane. There are many amazing animals there, not—I prefer to call them amazing creatures; it feels more impressive that way. In addition, there are some strange creatures on the island.I believe that if Darwin was moved there, there is no way he could have written his Theory of Evolution."
"april 15th. The grimm suddenly became a little strange. Is he infected with something?"
When did Emperor Roselle, who was born in the Intis Kingdom, embark on the journey? The Fog Sea was supposed to be the sea west of the Intis Republic. Yes, I need to use the historical information from the library for this cross reference. Klein quickly finished reading the page, and, turn his gaze to the back of the piece of paper.
At this point, he no longer hid the fact that he could decipher the secret symbol of Emperor Roselle because this ability matched the personality and status of the Fool. Audrey and Algeria did not speak. They waited in silence, as if not surprised by such a revelation. In fact, they even believe that it is true.
"2 October. They actually wanted me to marry Matilda of the Abel family without even consulting me first! Oh, my God, I haven't even met him! No, I must refuse! Even if I run away from home and survive on my own and suffer a life change, I will have to fight against this marriage!"
"5 October. Miss Matilda is so beautiful."
"6 October. His personality and attitude are just my type. I'm starting to look forward to the wedding."
Hey, Emperor, where's your integrity? Klein leaned back into his chair, not letting his emotions pass through the fog.
He realized that Gustav did not write in his diary every day from an early age. Often, he will only write in a diary when there are certain events that he needs to review, record, or vent his emotions.
He turned his eyes down. Klein looked at the last sentence of this page.
"9 October. They call me Son of the Steam. I like it so much."
Klein was slightly disappointed that the information on the first two pages was of little value.
But he didn't turn sullen. He moved the third page up. This page has content written on both sides of the paper.
"21 May. The Church of the God of Work gave me two options, two lines of the initial sequence. One of them is Savant. This is the complete Sequence path they have. The other was Mystery Pryer, which they obtained from the Musa Ascetic Order, but did not have a higher Order."
"22 May. My choice is easy: Savant! Savant has a complete Sequence line! Although using more information about mysticism can help me return home, the problem is that if I am not strong enough, there is a need to get outside help for transmigration. And I don't know if this external entity is good or bad, good or evil.I can't control it, and thus it can become very dangerous. In that case, why not strengthen myself and come back by relying on my own strength? strength? So, the complete order is the most important factor in my consideration!"
"i not only remember knowledge, but I understand it more deeply, as well as its possible applications and implications. Haha, this is a 'job' specially designed for transmigrants like me from alternate realms.I will be able to express my gains to the maximum! I have to say that if I go back to my current state to the third year of high school, I will definitely become a top scholar. If I could specialize more in an area, it wouldn't even be too difficult for me to become a scientist."
"May 26. I enjoy my status as Savant. Something strange to mention. When I refer to myself as a Savant, doing things that go along with this role, the murmurs that drive me crazy become much softer.I have also been able to control my outbursts of anger occasionally, too, I also remembered the matter about the diary.
"Is this the 'acting' mentioned by the mysterious Mr Zaratul? This could be the key in resolving the side effects caused by the herb."
As Klein read the pages of the diary, he was well aware that there was a fundamental difference between the way he and Emperor Roselle did things.
For example, regarding the matter of returning home, Klein considered understanding the deep knowledge of mysticism in order to avoid risk and achieve his goals, while Emperor Roselle preferred to rely on herself and face risk.
I must say, I sometimes envy people like that. Maybe everyone craves something they don't have. Of course, I should also consider strengthening myself; both are important, Klein thought, sighing a little.
The description given by Emperor Roselle about acting instilled confidence in Klein that the conclusion he made about acting yesterday was more or less true.
He put down the three pages of the diary, staring at Justice and The Hanged Man. He smiled and said, "Sorry, I'm too excited to read it."
Audrey calmed the envy in her heart and smiled faintly.
"I can understand. I hope to someday be able to exchange information about the contents of that diary."
"That's gonna take a price." Klein smiled and glanced at Justice, then turned his gaze to the silent Hanged Man.
Audrey put her palms together and placed them in front of her.
"Fool Master, Hanged Man Master, I have three questions to ask. If you think the answer requires a high price, say what you want, I'll try my best to look for it."
"No problem" replied the Algerian briefly.
Klein nodded and leaned further, making himself comfortable.
Audrey thought for a few seconds and said, "The first question is, what does 'acting' really mean'? I realized that the rest of the soul in the potion had a small effect on me; was it because I had been acting as a Spectator the entire time? this long?"
Algeria did not speak; instead, he looked at the Fool, as if waiting for him to give an answer.
Klein rubbed his finger on the edge of the table and said in a relaxed tone, "Let me explain this by analogy. Imagine the power of your potion core as a heavily guarded castle. The soul remains that could have caused a counterattack were inside that castle. Our goal is to get rid of him and become the real ruler of the castle.
"There are two ways we can do that. The first was to forcefully storm the castle. There is no guarantee that this will work, and you will definitely hurt yourself unless you can suppress it with absolute power. But of course, we're not equipped to do that.
"The second way is to make the castle owner extend the invitation. This invitation allows us to sneak through the guards' surveillance and infiltrate the castle. We can then easily finish off the enemy. But the problem lies in the fact that these invitations determine the facial features and characteristics of the guests. So, we have to go undercover and act as guests, got it?"
The Algerian immediately asked, as if he had anticipated this answer, "Then the invitation mentioned above is the name of the potion Sequence?"
"That's right" Klein replied with great affirmation.
Audrey froze for a moment, suddenly feeling that she really understood what 'acting' meant'.
He was immediately out of his Audience status due to his excitement. He praised happily, "What an amazing method, I think — I think it matches your title. His style fits perfectly with The Fool .. I would never believe that acting would have such an effect. Fortunately, I've been acting as a spectator the past few days."
He paused for a moment before saying, "i think this is a very precious answer; my heart was not comfortable accepting it in vain. Stupid Master, what do you need instead? Of course, I still remember that I owe you one page of Emperor Roselle's diary."
"More pages from Roselle's diary, or.." Klein paused for a moment.
He wanted to obtain information about the Sequence regarding the Diviner but felt that such low-level requests would damage the mystical image of the Fool. Therefore, he chose to give up and planned to ask them secretly one day.
I had just advanced recently and had yet to fully digest the Seer potion .. He comforted himself and added expressionlessly, "Anything about the Antigonus family, even if I myself already knew it."
Algeria remained silent for a few seconds. He looked up at the long bronze table for a moment before slowly opening his mouth.
"Fool Master.I'm sure I can pay you back immediately with the information you requested just now."
