"Why?" It was "Justice" Audrey who asked on behalf of "The Sun".

"The Hanged Man" Alger did not answer directly. He said to himself: "Abraham, , , , — these are the five great families that supported the establishment of the Tudor dynasty, second only to the Blood Emperor."

"Among them, the Amon family is the most mysterious, with the least recorded history, as if distorted and covered by some force."

"From 'King of the Five Seas' Nast, a message spread that the Amon family is a blasphemer family, who grasp the secret of stealing the power of gods!"

"Also, the Amon family claims to be descendants of the ancient Sun God."

was confused. Within his knowledge of mythology, there was no such thing as an ancient Sun God!

"The King Ormile, the Dragon of Imagination Angelwide, the Beast King Kwasithun, the Elf King Suniya Solem, the Destroying Demon Wolf Freygela, the Vampire Progenitor , the Immortal Phoenix Progenitor Griegarley, the Demon Lord Fabti — none of these eight ancient gods wield the authority of the Sun," Derrick seriously pondered. "If I must make a connection, the Lord of Creation, the Almighty God, did manifest divine power in the Sun domain. Could the Amon family be His descendants?"

Seeing that "The Sun" was silent, "The Hanged Man" Alger touched the stubble on his chin and said: "The Amon family is an ancient clan from one or two thousand years ago, almost synonymous with history. I'm very curious: why can that gentleman you met appear near the Silver City? And what is his purpose?"

He thought: Yes, the Amon family is in Mr. Hanged Man and Miss Justice's "world", so why could he appear around our Silver City area? Why did he agree to the "visit" request but then leave strangely without keeping the promise, and caused an entire squad to lose control, except for that team leader? What does he want? What is he looking for? If he truly is the descendant of the Lord, perhaps his purpose is the same as mine: to find the reason for the Great Calamity in ancient times and uncover the truth of the curse... "The Sun" Derrick was lost in thought for a while before shaking his head: "Mr. Hanged Man, I cannot answer your question. This is also something I want to clarify."

Alger replied with slight disappointment: "Then you should communicate more with that former team leader next door and see if you can dig up new information."

Having said that, he thought for a moment and added a reminder: "However, you must be sufficiently careful and cautious. I think that person is very dangerous."

"Very dangerous? You think so too?" "The Sun" Derrick asked back with surprise.

The elders of the Council of Six also think so!

"The Hanged Man" looked at the towering dome, silently took a breath, and said: "Only those who don't think so have abnormal brains."

Seeing that "The Sun" was still puzzled, he shook his head and said: "In the entire exploration squad, only he is alive. This fact alone is enough to show he has significant problems."

"Staying in the dungeon designed for out-of-control individuals for forty-two years yet still being clear-headed and rational further demonstrates his strangeness!"

"Coupled with that mysterious Amon, danger is obvious."

These were all bits that Derrick had thought about but not pieced together. Now, he saw it clearly and said sincerely: "I understand."

"Thank you, Mr. Hanged Man!"

"Justice" Audrey, who was listening and observing with keen interest, resisted the urge to cover her face with her hand, feeling that "The Sun" was even more naive than herself.

Seeing that everyone's curiosity was satisfied, and even the gloomy "World" slightly adjusted his sitting posture, and "The Sun" seemed to have no other matters to ask for help, she turned her head to look at the head of the bronze long table and smiled slightly: "Mr. Fool, I request a private conversation."

Here we go again... Klein felt amused and nodded lightly: "You may."

He immediately blocked the senses of "The Hanged Man" and the others, rather than isolating himself and Miss Justice, mainly worried that others might be idle and chat casually, thereby exposing the truth that "The World" was just a repeater.

Upon receiving the hint, Audrey spoke with a smile: "Honored Mr. Fool, I have three new pages of Roselle's diary."

After the "Blasphemy Card" was stolen by Mr. Fool's followers, she did not guiltily avoid the Kingdom Museum. Instead, as if nothing had happened, she openly begged her father for another chance to browse that "notebook" this week after the exhibition ended.

Audrey believed this would make her appear open and honest, which was the best way to avoid suspicion.

If she always seemed guilty and didn't do what should be done according to normal logic, then even if the Steam Church hadn't suspected before, they would find it problematic later.

And based on her own experience, she believed that the first few pages of a diary often reveal more things, so she mainly memorized the first three pages.

Before Mr. Fool could speak, she quickly added: "I understand this is not a matter that requires a private conversation, but I hope to hide it from Miss Magician for another one to two weeks. That way, even if she later learns that you need Roselle's diary, she won't suspect that I am 'Justice'."

She had met Fors and Hugh once in the middle of this week, and through guiding the conversation, naturally mentioned that the collected Roselle's notes had been chewed up by her dog in play and were difficult to restore.
