The Crossing Diary

"... I wonder if the Ancient Sun God will properly educate Amon. Sigh, but I can't stay in this place anymore." Luo Lin shook his head, picked up the Time Worms scattered on the ground, and didn't linger in the area. He nimbly packed his bags and prepared to flee.

Although the Ancient Sun God had sealed the space when he beat Amon, the seal had since been lifted. Who knew if official Beyonders or Amon's main body would come looking for him? Luo Lin felt it was better to find a new place to live.

As for being tracked later—Luo Lin wasn't worried about mystical tracking. As a vessel for Nyarlathotep's power, it would be strange if the Beyonders of this world could even divine his whereabouts.

And as for physical traces, Luo Lin, who had extensive experience being tracked, naturally knew how to erase them completely.

By the time the official Beyonders realized something was wrong and came to investigate Luo Lin's original residence, Luo Lin had already melted into the vast, complex city of Backlund like a drop of water.

That afternoon, a certain house on a certain street in Hillston Borough welcomed new residents.

After seeing off the maid he'd temporarily hired to help clean the room, Luo Lin closed the doors and windows, put away the freshly washed beakers and other tools, then took out a small suitcase. From it, he retrieved materials like pure water, gold mint leaves, colchicum autumnale extract, and elf flower.

These were all auxiliary materials needed to concoct the "Troublemaker" potion. Finally, he took out a small iron cigarette case from the suitcase. Upon opening it, a Time Worm lay quietly inside.

There was naturally more than one Time Worm left after Amon's clone self-destructed, but Luo Lin had collected the others for future use.

Luo Lin didn't rush to concoct the "Troublemaker" potion. Instead, he took out the last item from his small suitcase. It was a deliberately aged blank notebook, with a few large Chinese characters on the title page: "Transmigration Diary."

Luo Lin then opened the notebook, a thoughtful expression on his face, as if he were composing the plot of a story in his mind. A few seconds later, Luo Lin smiled with pleasure and wrote the following on the first page:

"June 29th, Sunny.

It's been three days since I arrived in this world. As much as I hate to admit it, I have to acknowledge one thing: I've transmigrated to another world, and I can't go back.

Well, with so many people transmigrating in this world, it's not particularly strange that it happened to me. Thinking optimistically, at least my current wealth ensures I won't worry about food or drink, and I can just relax and skip decades of hardship.

"June 30th, Cloudy.

I take back my words from yesterday. It turns out this world possesses extraordinary powers. Although my current identity is merely that of an ordinary young master of a wealthy family on the surface, in reality, I come from a family with a profound heritage. My ancestors were prominent, and my family has produced members of mystical families with extraordinary abilities throughout generations.

Good news: I can become a Beyonder, and I can even choose to follow the path of a Seer, an Apprentice, or a Thief.

Bad news: I just found out that our family has a super powerful enemy named Amon, who will equally devour every member of the Zoroast family he encounters.

Hahaha, I can't relax at all."

"July 1st, Cloudy.

I've decided to become a Thief, as that path is the most complete within our family's knowledge. The families of Seers and Apprentices only possess parts of the middle and low sequences, making it more difficult to advance further.

Although I don't think I can necessarily become a demigod, if there's an easier path, why make things difficult for myself?

After all, I heard Amon devours everyone equally, whether they are Seers, Apprentices, or Thieves."

"July 2nd, Heavy Rain.

Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!

I met Amon! Ahhh! I was almost eaten. Fortunately, Amon is a sadist and decided to keep me around for a while before eating me, after I reach a higher Sequence.

I need to think of a way to escape before he eats me.

Fortunately, Amon doesn't know Chinese, so I can write down my thoughts and plans in Chinese, constantly refining and correcting them to avoid forgetting."

"Done!" Luo Lin put down his pen, looking with satisfaction at the diary he had just fabricated. The purpose of writing these few diary entries was, of course, none other than to disguise them as Rosell's Diary later and sell them to the members of the Tarot Club. This would allow him to trick... oh no, use the diary to remind a future Mr. Fool of the dangers he might encounter, provide him with a little help, and incidentally, frame Amon.

Of course, depending on the situation in the future, he could also frame others in the diary.

Frankly speaking, Luo Lin was quite interested in Klein. He himself was never a good person, so he particularly admired truly good people.

It was the existence of these good people that made Luo Lin feel that the world wasn't so bad, and living wasn't such a terrible thing.

Moreover, as the future Lord of Mysteries, Klein was an excellent investment target. By building up some goodwill now, Luo Lin could steadily borrow demigod-level power in three years. How wonderful would that be?

Therefore, in Luo Lin's plan, he certainly intended to contact Klein and didn't mind helping within his capabilities. Besides, Klein wouldn't be short of entertainment and powerful figures around him, which could satisfy his two needs at once.

He even planned to inadvertently reveal his identity as a "fellow transmigrator" when interacting with Klein, wanting to see Klein's reaction.

He would probably be surprised but wouldn't immediately acknowledge him, instead observing him secretly first?

After all, Mr. Fool was a cautious person!

Thinking of this, Luo Lin chuckled, closed the diary, and set it aside. He picked up the beaker not far away, holding his hand suspended above it. In the next second, accompanied by the faint sound of popping bubbles, a translucent object about the size of a baby's palm, a light blue color, fell into the beaker. This was the "Troublemaker" characteristic segmented by Yog-Sothoth.

Luo Lin stared at this beautiful extraordinary characteristic for a few seconds, then meticulously began to concoct the Troublemaker potion. He first added pure water, colchicum autumnale extract, and other auxiliary materials into the beaker in sequence. After all these ordinary materials were added, he then put Amon's Time Worm into it.

The moment the Time Worm entered the beaker, the solution within took on a strange texture, like a liquid gemstone. Luo Lin's expression remained unchanged, and he deftly added the final Troublemaker extraordinary characteristic into the beaker.

"Gurgle— Gurgle—"

As if undergoing some chemical reaction, the potion in the beaker turned into a chaotic darkness at this moment. However, this dark color only lasted for a second before being replaced by silver-white. The pattern within the cup now resembled a blooming flower or the stars in the sky. The entire cup of potion presented a chaotic yet brilliant beauty.

"It's quite beautiful, but it doesn't look like something drinkable," Luo Lin commented objectively as he looked at the finished Troublemaker potion. Then, without any hesitation, he directly tilted his head back and downed the entire cup.
