Seeing the old butler's tall back walk out of the study, Jack jumped down the ladder. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

He nodded, and went to lock the door to the study.

The old housekeeper is right: you can't be spineless, but you can't be cautious.

Well, although the old butler didn't say that...... But the meaning is pretty much the same, isn't it?

For Jack, the so-called caution means not being gullible, not being dangerous, and usually nothing, but now in this moment of crisis, not only the fake Mikael, but even the old butler can't believe it, neither can Tifa, nor can the two younger sisters. The only person Jack can trust is himself...... Well, in fact, he can't be gullible - after all, half of his memories don't belong to him.

After scanning the study, [Star] helped Jack analyze every corner of the room, and after confirming that there were no magic arrays or magic devices, Jack closed the curtains and climbed to the top of the ladder again, he once again took out the old book with a large thick book, and when he turned it for the first time, he found that the book had dozens of pages and other pages of uneven height, and he also found air-dried glue in the cracks between the pages.

So, he resolutely tore the dozens of pages from the roots, one by one, and then, by the dim light, he found a line of small writing inside the spine, where the dozens of pages had been glued.

"A Tulip for Dusk"

Jack quickly recalled the memories of his predecessor again, and then, he learned that the book was a fairy tragedies written by William Chauvin, about a prince who fell in love with a tulip was forced to marry someone else, ran away with the help of his mother, and after going through a lot of hardships, finally exchanged love with Tulips in the sunset, of course, because it was a tragedy, so at that time, Tulips, who had been away from the water for too long, were about to die, and then the prince also ended his life in the twilight.

Jack searched the shelves twice and couldn't find the book, but he clearly remembered that he had read the script as a child, and he even remembered the name of the prince: Nero Claudius.

Well...... How so?

Jack racked his brains and discovered that the title of the book hidden in the spine was of course just accidental, but with the first clue, it must mean that there is a final answer. Obviously, in order to prevent the secret from disappearing forever in the long river of history, the ancestors not only passed it on from generation to generation, but also left behind something to record the secret, but to find such a thing, it takes luck and wisdom.

But where is the book? Did someone discover it and hide it, or did it be thrown away by accident? No, according to the old butler, the study of the Scarlett had remained the same for four hundred years......

Well, wait!

Jack patted his head and jumped off the ladder at once, gritted his teeth and endured the weakness of his legs caused by the failure of the forced force for a while, squatted down, and pulled out a book from the bottom of the bookshelf - "The Tyrant by the Red River"

This is also an old yellowed book, from the famous historian of the Second Age, Farah Alphons, who was known for his extravagance and brutality, and the only prince of the Augustan Empire with a different surname: the Prince of the Red Sun, whose name was also Nero Claudius.

Jack examines the book, and finally, he uses a knife to cut open the back cover, which is slightly thicker than the cover, and finds a cloth as thin as a cicada's wing, between two sheets of cardboard—with a mutilated magic circle drawn on it, which Jack recognizes is usually used to open magic locks.

So where is the magic lock?

Jack restored everything and returned to his lab, where he pushed open the large cabinet in the deepest part of the lab and found a worn, blurred rune on the stone wall behind the cabinet.

This discovery benefited from the memories of the adventures of the predecessor and the revival of the memories of the predecessor through the passage, Jack entered the magic and opened the secret room behind the wall, and then, he used [Light Augmentation] to walk in.

In the center of the chamber was a small table with a scroll on it.

――――――

The lights and noise of the city passed through the layers of woods in the aristocratic manor area, and it also diluted into darkness and tranquility.

The bright moon in the window seemed to cover the stratus clouds through the tulle, and the moonlight jumped faintly in the middle of the room.

Jack arrived at Peter Kun's room.

He crept in silently like a ghost - thanks for the Arcane Trick, and like a night cat with green eyes - thank you again for the Arcane Trick.

He gently patted the sleeping Peter and called, "Peter, wake up, hey, wake up, Peter!!"

Peter rolled over and continued to sleep.

Jack reluctantly patted him again, trying to wake up the lazy worm, but as if under the spell of sleep, Peter even arrogantly pushed Jack's hand away and snored loudly.

No way, Jack smiled shyly, I also want to be a good person, but how difficult it is to be a good person in this world!

He pulled Peter's sock out of Peter's shoe, shoved it into Peter's mouth, and then, he broke Peter's right eyelid open, and used the newly learned [Illumination (Ring)] and the completely instantaneous [Light Enhancement] on his bare eyeball!

"Ahhh......h Whining...... Woowoo...... Woo!"

Peter, who came to his senses in an instant, opened his left eye wide in agony, closed his right eye, and with tears in the corners of his eyes, his whole body twitched, and he screamed and wailed loudly, but unfortunately, all the sounds were drowned out by his own socks.

"Ahh......h

"What are you talking about?" Jack pulled out the stinky sock from Peter's mouth and showed a pair of innocent eyes.

"I'm saying, you!! what the hell are you doing!" Peter was full of pain, and he was already in tears, "Do you know? Do you know how much it hurts? I'm going blind, I'm going blind!! do you know what the hell is going on? Do you know that human eyes are fragile? Do you know ......?"

"Eh...... Don't scream so loudly, okay?" Jack shoved the sock back into Peter's mouth, his face full of helplessness, "I know, I understand, human beings are fragile, who doesn't know, doesn't it? Isn't it three o'clock in the middle of the night...... It doesn't matter if you don't know if you don't look at your watch, I'll tell you!!"

After whining for a while, Peter finally reacted and pulled the smelly sock out of his mouth, and he yelled, "Do you know that you still put the sock in my mouth again, do you know that it is disgusting!

Jack shook his hand and said, "Don't worry about these details, it's not because you're too unvigilant when you sleep." Now, guess what we came to you in the middle of the night?"

"What are you doing?" said Peter, looking puzzled.

"I'll take you to the demon's secret base to play!"

"What are you talking about??? Peter was shocked, "you want to drag me to death?" No, this can't work, just help you fool the stupid boss, and go on some adventures with you, don't talk about it!!!

"You know, when I was younger, I used to play a game, it was a very old game, it was called Castlevania, and since that day I have always wanted to be a hero and be able to explore the demon's castle......" Jack recounts affectionately, he wants to convey his dream with feelings.

"I'm sorry, I don't understand what you're talking about, but don't tell me anything about my childhood! I'll tell you, I'm Chinese New Year's Eve four years old today, and I haven't seen anything? I have a wife and a daughter, don't talk about it, I won't go with you to die!"

"Look at me, Peter, look at me with your Destiny Radiance (Three Rings) and tell me what you watched?" said Jack with a serious face.

"What?" Peter raised an eyebrow, stunned for a moment, and then naturally smiled wryly, "What do you want to say?"

Jack noticed Peter's unnatural expression, but he didn't say anything, instead pointing at himself with a thumbs up.

"Aren't there a colorful sparkle in your eyes? Didn't you say it? My strong luck has never been seen before, yes, I must be the protagonist of this world, how can you go on an adventure with me?"

"No......," Peter thought for a moment, and said, "Jack, have you ever seen a play?
