Chapter 48 Zhou Mingrui felt puzzled
"Perhaps!" Rosen smiled, not surprised by Klein's reaction, but still feeling good.
Rosen knew, of course, that the reason Klein didn't press the issue was not only due to his personality, but also largely because of his trust in him.
Rosen liked the feeling of being trusted.
"Mr. Fool, is this young gentleman your... friend?" Klein Moretti hesitated before speaking. He had originally wanted to ask, "Is this your child?", but the way the two interacted made it seem unlikely.
As for Klein on Rosen's shoulder, the original Klein Moretti regarded him as a living doll friend from a legend.
"This is my best friend, Rosen Nicholas," Zhou Mingrui introduced without hesitation.
"Hello, Mr. Moretti." Rosen greeted Klein Moretti with a smile, and then deliberately lifted the cotton doll on his shoulder and shook it, saying, "This is Klein, my doll friend."
Upon hearing this, Klein Moretti paused for a moment, then exclaimed in surprise, "What a coincidence, we have the same name."
"Yes, what a coincidence! It means you two are destined to meet." Rosen nodded. "Perhaps you'll become good friends in the future."
"That sounds great." Original Klein Moretti seemed to imagine such a future and couldn't help but smile. He then looked at the cotton doll and said, "Hello, Klein, may I call you that? You can call me Moretti."
"Hello, Moretti." Klein also gave a friendly smile, looking at the bookish young man in front of him, feeling a little sentimental.
His fate and his destiny are no longer the same.
This is good.
After they had introduced themselves, Zhou Mingrui turned to Moretti and said, "Although I have resolved the pollution you encountered, the dark cloud hanging over your fate has not completely dissipated. But don't worry, you will be fine. I will handle this."
At this point, Zhou Mingrui frowned slightly. He could see the traces of interference with Moretti's destiny. His "suicide" was not simply due to the influence of the Antigonus family notes.
However, Zhou Mingrui still needs to perform a divination to determine the specifics of what happened.
Thinking of this, Zhou Mingrui didn't hesitate and quickly used the Mysterious Servant's ability to perform divination, soon obtaining a picture:
In the scene, inside a house with a red chimney, a middle-aged man is writing something in a notebook with a quill pen. As the camera zooms in, Zhou Mingrui can see the contents of the notebook:
It described how the Antigonus Notebooks were accidentally lost by members of the Secret Order, then fell into the hands of members of the Aurora Society, and were then deliberately sold to the unfortunate Welch. It even described how Welch and two others used black divination to activate the power of the Antigonus Family Notebooks, and how they were all destroyed afterward.
The part about Klein's death was simply redacted and replaced with the statement that Klein did not succeed in committing suicide.
In addition, the notes also record how a man named Lanluus used innocent girls to pray for offspring from the true creator.
Zhou Mingrui: ?
What is this? A destiny notebook where whatever you write down will come true in reality?
Although he was already a mysterious servant, as a newly minted "time traveler," Zhou Mingrui obviously didn't know what 008 was. However, as someone who had read a lot of fantasy works before time travel, Zhou Mingrui was clearly not lacking in the idea that "writing is destiny."
"Wait, Rosen seems to have introduced a similar ability... Audience?" Zhou Mingrui's expression suddenly became subtle. Having memories of the Cotton Doll era, he naturally had a basic understanding of the twenty-two divine paths. Therefore, Zhou Mingrui remembered that there seemed to be a similar ability in the later stages of the Audience path.
Thinking of the audience's high-sequence "every word spoken will be known" ingenious characteristic, Zhou Mingrui was silent for a second. Almost subconsciously, he activated the power of the Source Castle to protect everyone present and prevent others from spying. Then, as if he had thought of something, he frowned, looked at Rosen next to him, and said, "Rosen, I remember you know the True Creator."
Although it is unknown what the purpose of the person suspected to be an audience member, or the person holding the item related to the audience member, is, undeniably, that they want the offspring of the true creator to descend here.
"What happened?" Rosen asked, though he already had a guess in his mind.
In the original story, even with the enhancement of the Source Castle, Klein, who was only at a low level, could hardly predict 008's specific information, since the difference between the two was too great. However, with the support of the Source Castle, Zhou Mingrui, who can be called the strongest angel king at this moment, can obviously directly expose 008's true colors.
"I just had some divination results." Zhou Mingrui didn't try to hide anything and quickly recounted everything he had divined. Finally, he said with some concern:
"Although I don't know exactly what that person wants to do, judging from his actions, it's probably not a good thing. So if you knew the true Creator, do you know what the consequences would be if His offspring came to earth?"
"That would probably be a disaster that endangers the entire city." Rosen gave the answer cooperatively, but did not intend to give away any more spoilers. For Zhou Mingrui, who had just awakened and become a mysterious servant, the combination of Ince and 008 was a good practice subject for him.
So Rosen simply said, "The true creator of this era has gone mad, and His offspring will only be insane monsters. If they successfully descend, they will inevitably cause the deaths of countless people."
"I understand." Zhou Mingrui's expression turned serious. He thought for a few seconds, then looked at Rosen and said, "Rosen, I'd like to ask you for a favor."
"What kind of help?" Rosen waited for his answer.
"I want to get rid of the offspring of the true creator. Now that I know about this, I can't just ignore it," Zhou Mingrui said with a frown. If he didn't have the ability, that would be one thing, but since he has the ability to resolve this matter, he can't pretend he didn't see it.
Zhou Mingrui then sighed and said, "But the girl who conceived the child is innocent. I would like to ask you to help me see if we can save her."
"Sure, no problem." Rosen nodded; he didn't mind helping with this.
"Then let's set off now. I'm afraid something might happen if we're too late," Zhou Mingrui said, then looked at Moretti and said, "Mr. Moretti, please wait at home for a while."
"...Although I don't know exactly what happened, may the goddess protect you." Moretti spoke earnestly. Although he was completely confused, he could roughly guess that he might have been involved in some huge conspiracy, and his benefactor was about to resolve the matter.
