Regarding the island in the sky where Golden Chariot appeared, no one, including Klein, who was very curious about mystical knowledge, mentioned that they wanted to go up there and "take a stroll."

Unless you want to become the same black footprints as that unfortunate pirate.

Going around the four pillars supporting the island, "Future" continued to move forward in the almost windless waters. Although this classical-shaped sailing ship was not equipped with steam power, the mast painted with strange symbols could obviously absorb strong forward kinetic energy in the breeze, so it did not slow down.

The journey became boring in the next few hours. There was only this ship on the vast sea, and the rest were the illusory islands in the distance that were almost indistinguishable, the occasional flame floating on the sea, and the scorching sunshine that never changed.

Does "Admiral of Stars" really know the route? She can't tell the direction at all... Looking at the scenery that keeps repeating, Angel has countless doubts in her stomach, but she has only entered this sea area for a few hours, and Cattleya also showed an extremely familiar attitude towards it, so she decided to take a look for the time being.

Klein also squinted his eyes in the always intense midday sun, scanning the unchanging sea surface, trying to find clues about the mermaid.

Until a pirate cautiously approached and informed them that dinner was about to begin.

After Angel rescued all the pirates through "Sedative Disease" last night and protected everyone who was thrown in the air at breakfast, most of "Future" The members' respect for her has reached the level of "one of their own", and even her companions, "Mad Adventurer Gehrman Sparrow", who has a gloomy face and is surrounded by scandals, have become much better.

As long as he doesn't deliberately get close to "Admiral of Stars"...

As soon as Angel and Klein followed the pirates to the inner cabin, they felt that the scorching sun that seemed to never change outside the door and window suddenly dimmed. In just a few seconds, the cabin fell into darkness, with only a solitary oil lamp hanging on the bulkhead, which was extremely desolate.

A gust of dark wind blew by, sending chills down the spines of the three of them. Angel hurriedly came to the porthole and looked at the sky, only to find that the entire sea had been shrouded in a night sky that was so dense that Star could not be seen.

How many seconds does it take to go from noon to midnight?

While she was stunned, the voice of "Admiral of Stars" Cattleya came to her ears:

"Everyone goes back to their rooms, puts themselves to sleep and waits to wake up naturally."

"What if I can't sleep?"

Walking out of the restaurant, he happened to bump into a few people, "Toxin Expert" Frank muttered. There was still a dab of cream on his lips. He had obviously just had a full meal.

"Then when we wake up, we will find that you are missing from the ship and cannot be found."

The amplified voice from the captain's cabin replied.

With the experience of dealing with "Golden Chariot" in the morning, Angel did not dare to ignore Cattleya's order. After saying hello to Klein, she returned to her room alone, got directly into bed, and fell asleep quickly through meditation.

Soon, she felt that her eyelids were being illuminated by the sun, and the light penetrated her skin and entered her eyes, making her feel itchy.

it's over?

Angel opened his eyes and pushed the quilt away with both hands, only to find that he was not lying in the cabin of "Future", but lying on his back on a worn carpet.

In front of her, a row of floor-to-ceiling windows was emitting a heart-warming dim light, illuminating the room she was in.

Surrounded by rows of neatly arranged bookshelves, they were piled with books of various styles. On the carpet closer, there were long tables and armchairs, creating shadows of varying lengths in the sunlight.

One minute he was in a single room on a boat on the sea, and the next minute he was in a library-like place, leaving Angel with a momentary blankness in his mind.

But she immediately realized that this was a "dream".

The evidence is not only that she moved here without warning, but also that "Hidden Holy Emblem" is exuding a faint aura of inner peace on her right wrist.

So, after "Future" suddenly enters Evernight, will you fall into such a dream when you fall asleep?

According to Cattleya, it is safe in dreams. Otherwise, Dream Invasion will disappear?

Angel thought about it, quickly got up from the ground, checked the other Mystical Item and Charm on him, and found that they were all where they should be. Then he felt slightly relieved and cautiously came to the floor-to-ceiling window.

The glass of this row of windows was extremely clean and transparent, not even a product of this era, allowing her to easily see the scene outside.

The sky in the far distance is dim Sun. Compared with the real sky that reflects Blazing Sun at noon, this place is more like the sunset of "Physical World".

Below it is a mountain covered by countless walls, towers and palaces. They are magnificent and cascading upward, with the top almost touching the setting sun. The size seems not to be the residence of humans, but the temple of the gods.

Looking down, below the mountain peaks and the palace is an endless abyss, which separates the palace embraced by the setting sun from the library where Angel is located. On this side are steep cliffs, dry trees and buildings made of black stones.

Compared with the "Dusk" opposite, this side seems to be "Evernight"...

Angel murmured, and suddenly saw two familiar figures on a boulder.

Is it Klein... and "Admiral of Stars" Cattleya?

Angel's far superior vision instantly confirmed their identities.

Are they in my dream too? Is it a real person or a phantom in my dream? Then Nina, Frank, are they also in other places?

She frowned, countless thoughts flashed through her mind, and she wanted to smash the floor-to-ceiling window in front of her and call out Klein's name, but she cautiously stopped her impulsive thoughts.

Let's try first to see if we can find a way down...

Taking one last look at the magnificent palace in the distance, Angel reluctantly withdrew his gaze and looked around the library in the sunset, looking for the door or stairs.

Walking through the bookshelves like a city wall, Angel secretly increased his vigilance, his eyes constantly scanning the gaps between the bookshelves, and his hand touched the "Good Luck" revolver on his waist.

I wonder if the ammunition and Charm consumed in the dream will also be consumed in Physical World... As soon as she had this strange idea, her eyes fell on a special book on the bookshelf.

"Rosell's Notes 5".

This black-covered book is sandwiched between "Release of Spirituality" and "True Starry Sky and Astrology". There is no pattern at all, and there is no Rosell's Diary 4 or 6 around it.

The entire Rosell's Diary, the diary of the time traveler emperor?

She immediately stopped and her heart started pounding as if she had discovered a treasure.

If this is true, then my year, no, Klein and I's "Roselle's Diary" for the whole year will be saved!

Gently reaching out to touch the spine of the book, until his fingers touched the soft leather cover and pulling out the entire notebook, Angel confirmed that this was a real book and not an illusory dream.

Of course, this is in a dream, and nothing is real, but this is a strange dream in an unknown sea, and other companions even appear in the dream. Maybe... is the note real?

Just as he was about to open the cover, a series of footsteps suddenly came from beside Angel.

Ta, da.

The sound was unpleasant, but it seemed to hit Angel's heart.

She immediately dropped Rosell's Diary, grabbed the "Good Luck" revolver with one hand, and pressed it on her chest with the other. She immediately disappeared between the bookshelves and entered an invisible state.

Ta, da.

Footsteps came from behind the bookshelf to this side. The first thing that caught Angel's eyes was a pair of black leather boots, followed by beige slim trousers, a light brown knee-length skirt, chestnut hair that reached her waist, and a pair of blue eyes that were like a concentrated ocean.

Those eyes looked at the invisible Angel without any hesitation.

A soft, but emotionless voice came out of her mouth:

"Are you looking for it again, looking for Roselle's diary?"

Angel's heart almost froze in this sudden shock.

She had encountered this figure, this outfit, and this tone of voice at Backlund's Roselle exhibition.

That High Sequence Beyonder who is suspected to be the emperor's daughter Bernadette!

Silently de-invisible, Angel put away the "Good Luck" revolver, and his slightly bent kneeling posture for easier attack changed back to a casual stance.

"Hello, we meet again," she said hello proactively, "Bernadette...Miss Gustav."

Her temptation did not receive a response from the other party.

But the silence itself also said a lot.

"I am indeed collecting Emperor Roselle's Diary. I once said it was for Mr. Fool." Angel continued.

This sentence made Bernadette Gustav's indifferent expression change slightly. The blue eyes under the straight eyebrows looked at the "Rosell's Notes 5" that fell to the ground.

Following the other person's gaze, Angel also looked at the black-covered book that was spread out naturally, and was surprised to find that all its inner pages were blank.

Sure enough, the things in the dream were all false, just the manifestation of my inner desire... No, I didn't long for the "real starry sky" or "Spirituality release" at all. Could this dream, or this library that suddenly appeared, be the "design" of Bernadette?

She met me in Backlund. At that time, I revealed that Mr. Fool was collecting Roselle's diary, so she used this blank notebook to test me, and finally confirmed that I was his follower... But how did she appear in this dream? Could it be that Bernadette was also hiding on the ship of "Admiral of Stars" and came to this sea together?

Damn it, she wasn't even willing to use the real diary to fish me out...

Looking at the blank note, Angel was angry but didn't dare to express it. He had to curl his lips and look at Emperor Roselle's daughter, who was also High Sequence Beyonder's woman.

"If you need a real and complete diary, I hope you will exchange it for interpreting his own words. In addition, I can also meet most of your requirements, such as recording Card of Blasphemy of 'Demoness' Pathway, or provide you with certain help when you face some great difficulties."

Bernadette continued to speak with her emotionless words, then turned around and walked behind the bookshelf. The skirt on the beige trousers swayed, giving this uncoordinated outfit a lively feel.

But I have already seen the "Demoness" card, how could she get the second "Demoness" card? And I can't understand Chinese characters at all, only Mr. Fool can understand... No, she is actually making a request to Mr. Fool, hoping that I, a believer, will convey it to her?

Angel thought quickly and confirmed the other party's purpose. Seeing that Bernadette was about to leave, he quickly said:

"Wait, there is one more thing," she said hurriedly, not for herself, but for a girl who had been waiting for a hundred years. "Do you remember 'Queen Anne's Revenge'? Anne is looking for you."

Before she finished speaking, she saw the pair of black boots disappearing into the gap between the bookshelf.

Opening her mouth slightly, Angel looked at the unoccupied bookshelf with some surprise. She did not expect that the other party did not even think about Great Old One's acquaintance, and did not even stay for a moment.

Could it be that she is not "Bernadette Gustav", but has the same name, or is she a younger descendant of the Great Emperor?

If so, then Anne...

Angel's eyes suddenly flashed, and Bernadette's blue eyes appeared in front of her. Her long chestnut hair was swaying, and her face that had always been indifferent showed a different expression.

That's eagerness.

"You mean, sister Anne is still alive? She is looking for me?"
