"Madam, sir, have you found any of Roselle's diaries?"
Hearing this question, Lin Ruo remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he had already begun considering which of Emperor Roselle's diaries to tell Klein.
Here, it's necessary to mention that although Lin Ruo had been serving as Klein's temporary teacher for some time, teaching him a lot of basic knowledge about the mystical realm, various interesting and useful tidbits about the 22 pathways, and never ceasing to persecute Roselle.
However, Lin Ruo hadn't actually given Klein any of the real Roselle diaries—nor had the latter ever asked for them, even though he knew Lin Ruo must have read many diaries of Emperor Roselle, and that if he asked, Lin Ruo would most likely not refuse.
But just as Klein had proactively asked Lin Ruo not to push credit onto him in the future, Klein never felt that Lin Ruo had any obligation to tell him these things, and naturally wouldn't proactively ask for them.
Of course, if Lin Ruo offered them on his own initiative, Klein wouldn't refuse either, but he would keep this favor in mind.
After Justice Audrey and Hanged Man Alger each reported on their progress in collecting Emperor Roselle's diaries, Lin Ruo also spoke in a slightly hesitant tone, saying, "If the Emperor Roselle's diaries you're talking about refer to Emperor Roselle's notes, then I think I have two pages as well." At the same time, he expressed sufficient doubt.
Huh? Klein, who was both pleased and disappointed by Justice Audrey and Hanged Man Alger's collection progress, was immediately stunned upon hearing this.
Of course, he knew that Lin Ruo definitely had Emperor Roselle's diaries, but he didn't expect Lin Ruo to say so at this juncture.
However, based on the other party's consistent style, Klein wasn't too surprised. He simply glanced at Lin Ruo and said in a low and soothing voice, "Collecting Roselle's diaries is a commission I issued within the Tarot Club. If you are willing, you can also help me collect them, and I will pay you an equivalent reward."
He's putting on quite the act. It's just that compared to the later stages, Mr. Fool is too approachable now. Is it because he's not skilled enough in his role yet...? Lin Ruo thought to himself, but on the surface, he revealed an expression of surprise, doubt, and contemplation, and without pausing, he said, "Okay, Mr. Fool, I will try to collect them." Then, he stopped speaking.
Huh, Mr. Chariot didn't ask how to transcribe Emperor Roselle's diary to Mr. Fool...? Justice Audrey, who had been observing the new member as a spectator since Lin Ruo spoke, was immediately puzzled. Then, she realized that the silent and upright Mr. Chariot, although no longer speaking, seemed to be moving his gaze back and forth between her and the Hanged Man, and she immediately understood.
That's right, the Hanged Man and I just said that we had collected Emperor Roselle's diaries. As senior members, we must know how to transcribe Emperor Roselle's diary to the Fool... Mr. Chariot wants to observe how we do it first.
Very cautious... Not only Justice Audrey, but Hanged Man Alger also clearly saw this point. However, compared to Audrey, he seemed to have thought more deeply and ultimately gave a cautious evaluation.
Having figured out the above point, and with a strong sense of seniority, Justice Audrey was obviously not stingy in showing the newcomer, and immediately asked, "Mr. Fool, shall we express the diary now?"
"Yes." Klein nodded, his words were quite concise, and he tried to restrain himself from using more body language.
This was necessary, after all, he was now facing a "Spectator" who could analyze a person clearly from just a few words.
In front of the "Spectator", one must be cautious!
As his voice fell, yellow-brown parchment and crimson steel pens instantly appeared in front of Justice Audrey, Hanged Man Alger, and Chariot Lin Ruo.
As a new member, although Lin Ruo knew very well how to express Emperor Roselle's diary, Lin Ruo, who was acting quite professionally, naturally didn't rush to pick up the pen. Instead, he first observed Audrey and Alger, who had already picked up their writing tools and started writing the diary content.
He saw lines of text appearing almost silently on the yellow-brown parchment in front of them. Some of these texts were upright and grand, some were delicate and graceful, and some were crooked, obviously copies of Emperor Roselle's diary content made by later generations.
Lin Ruo appropriately showed a thoughtful expression, and after a dozen seconds, he also picked up the pen, recalling the relevant content of Emperor Roselle's diary in his mind, while trying to convey the emotions he eagerly wanted to express, just as described in the original work.
Sure enough, corresponding content also appeared on the yellow-brown parchment in front of Lin Ruo afterwards.
After the three people had imprinted Emperor Roselle's diaries, Klein moved his mind, and the three pages of parchment flashed into his hands.
Klein scanned the three pages and began to browse them.
The diaries provided by Audrey and Alger were naturally no different from those in the original work. Roughly summarized, they were "Roselle playing the pirate king's trope," "Roselle discovering an unnamed island," "Roselle discovering that his subordinate, Grimm, was suspected of being infected," "Roselle complaining about arranged marriages and then later enjoying it," and so on.
In addition to Roselle's daily life complaints, there were naturally some useful points as well. For example, about the unnamed island and Grimm's infection, and the name "Zaratul," which belonged to Sequence 1 of the Seer pathway.
However, these were obviously secrets that Klein didn't know yet, so he didn't realize that these contents were useful.
In addition, the descriptions in the other diary contents about Emperor Roselle's digestion of the potion and the reduction of hidden dangers naturally gave Klein a deeper understanding of "acting." Emperor Roselle's views on the choice and attitude of sequences gave Klein a clear understanding of the style of this transmigrator predecessor.
He's really a completely different person from me... But I have to say, sometimes I'm quite envious of this kind of person... Thoughts flashed through Klein's mind, and while feeling a little emotional, he also looked at the Roselle diary provided by Lin Ruo.
The first entry at the beginning almost made him unable to hold back his expression.
"March 17th, are the ladies of Intis so open? Did I sleep with her, or did she sleep with me? It feels a little weird."
Klein: ? ? ?
Lin Ruo, are you serious?
Justice and Hanged Man don't know the diary content, but you don't know?
Or are you really so enthusiastic about persecuting Emperor Roselle?!
