Chapter 469

Furina paused, then quickly looked at Eris.

"I'm not blaming you, this has nothing to do with you Eris!"

Admittedly, the giant beast attack that year brought a lot of shock to Fontaine, and some soldiers sacrificed their lives as a result.

But Eris herself had no ill intentions, and after understanding the situation, she chose to commit suicide, which was equivalent to atoning for her sins with her death.

More than 400 years have passed since then, so what if the score is not settled?

Should we make Eris commit suicide again?

Even disregarding emotional factors, from a purely pragmatic standpoint, Eris's power is indispensable in order to break the prophecy and protect Fontaine's future.

Furina bit her lip, looking at Eris with a complicated expression.

Eris floated over, took Furina's hand, placed it on her head, and gently rubbed it against her. Like a well-behaved puppy trying to please its owner.

"Pfft! What are you doing? It's all in the past... Don't cause any more trouble in the future, understand, Eris?"

"Yes, Lady Furina."

Eris gazed into Furina's eyes with clear, beautiful eyes that seemed to be filled with tenderness and affection.

Furina patted Eris's head, sighed, and gradually suppressed the complexities that were difficult to unravel. Then, she continued:

"They have seriously violated Fontaine's laws and threatened the safety of all Fontaine citizens. Neuvillette declared the Narwhal's Cross Society guilty, and I dispatched the main force of the Shadow Hunter to capture them. Later, the two sides fought a final battle inside your body... Do you remember, Eris?"

Yes. Many people are fighting.

"Yes, it was a fierce battle. Even Master Alain's sister, Marianne, tragically died in that battle. Fortunately, the madness of the Narwhal's Cross Society was eventually stopped, and most of the perpetrators were punished. For Fontaine, it was a good ending."

Furina shook her head with emotion, seemingly also deeply impressed by that period of history.

Then, Furina looked around the hall and said:

"I think I know where this is. I guess this might be the orphanage where Rene, Master Alain, Marianne and others stayed. It has special significance for Rene. So he returned here and transformed it into his private estate and an important place for his society. The fact that it doesn't rot in water, and that maze-like mechanism from before, are probably all protective devices set up by the Narwhal's Cross Society. It's been 400 years and it's still in this state. Rene is indeed a genius, but it's a pity he took the wrong path."

Furina sighed again.

[Mechanical Master] Master Alain discovered the Manghuang Energy System and used it to build the foundation for the entire Fontaine Clockwork Mechanisms technology. That was undoubtedly a world-changing achievement.

Rene was once considered on par with Alain, and his genius was precisely what enabled him to build an academic school of thought. Had he not gone astray, but instead created beneficial theories and inventions like the Master Alain, perhaps Fontaine would be even better today.

Furina sat down in a chair next to the round table, gazing into the conference hall and sighing deeply.

Eris went to the outer bookshelf, waved her hand, and books flew past her eyes as she quickly turned the pages.

'These are all legitimate professional books and research materials. It seems the Dreamscape's owner is a very knowledgeable person? Or perhaps the books were originally there, simply protected by the power of the Dreamscape? Never mind, that's not important. What's important is the books themselves.'

With the Authority of Reason, multiple thought processes, and the World Tree's unique memory and analytical abilities, Eris rapidly digested the important research data of the Narwhal's Cross Society.

'World Tree, search for information related to the Narwhal's Cross Society.'

[Announcement: Rene de Petrique, leader of the Narwhal's Cross Society, has no death record. Jacob Ingord, deputy leader, has no death record. The remaining 46 official members have no records. Also, regarding Marianne Giordan, mentioned by Furina, according to the memories of her contemporaries in the Court of Fontaine, she is dead, but the World Tree has no death record.]

'Oh?'

Eris paused, his eyes narrowing slightly.

That's really interesting.

There are no death records. Does that mean they didn't die, or... their souls and memories went somewhere else?

So, which of these missing persons, or which of them, is the owner of this Dreamscape?

Furina had taken a break, but this time, it was Eris's turn to become interested in exploring and deciphering the mystery.

' The Abyss, human modification, consciousness fusion and separation, primordial Primordial Sea Water, the Narwhal's Cross Holy Sword ... World Formula?'

Eris was finally taken aback, and looked up once again at the enormous clock overhead.

Eris hesitated for a moment, then waved his hand, took out a cake and black tea, and silently placed them beside Furina, who was sitting at the round table.

Then, she brought more documents to her eyes and scanned them.

'World Tree, Primal Anqi, construct World Formula mathematical model and verify its correctness!'

[In progress.] ×2

The Anqi perked up.

This thing is pretty good!
