Just hearing this irritating voice, Rod knew it was the Book of Knowledge.

Since it fell asleep the last time, the Dream Realm has been quiet, so quiet that Rod even missed its and the doll's voices.

"Alright, for this matter, I won't hold a grudge."

In the ancient castle, Rod found a spot by the fire and sat down. With a thought, he flew into the Dream Realm.

In the instant the vision flipped, Rod saw the Book of Knowledge charging out of the House of God.

After another soul restoration, it showed a noticeable change.

Pale golden mist surrounded the book, the thick tome became restrained with Divine Light, and the golden cover with the characters "Book of Knowledge" became solid and real.

Overall, the Book of Knowledge indeed looked like it had moved up a notch.

The doll following behind it caught Rod's eye.

It was a lifelike and stunning humanoid, transforming from a simple rusty doll into a beautiful and exquisite entity doll, with shining golden long hair, a delicate and charming face, and eyes as dazzling as blue gemstones, with skin as white as snow and jade, under the mist, so beautiful as to seem unreal.

If not for the obvious mechanical structure at the joints, it would appear just like a real person.

"Master."

The doll bowed in greeting.

"I have awakened."

Rod then came to his senses: "Ah, very good! You two finally awakened. Aphro, why did you sleep for so long this time?"

The doll answered: "Master, it's because we recovered many souls, and to adapt to the changes they brought, we had to undergo a long sleep. Now we're mostly in a complete state, with only less than ten percent missing."

The Book of Knowledge said proudly: "Indeed, our abilities have greatly improved, many lost memories have returned, we no longer have to flit around like headless flies, nor swim in unknown dangers, rejoice, my master, the great and irreplaceable Book of Knowledge returns..."

Rod raised a finger, and the Book of Knowledge immediately swallowed its remaining words.

"Book, you really revert to your old self after a nap, healed scars only to forget the pain, when will you get rid of your arrogant trait?"

The Book of Knowledge let out a dry laugh:

"Master, just a little excited, just a little excited, since regaining the soul, I've become very humble, no one is more humble than me."

Rod was too lazy to pick fault with the Book of Knowledge's words.

"Tell me, what really changed this time you woke? Did you recall any hidden knowledge?"

The Book of Knowledge shook its pages, suddenly appearing spirited.

Pale golden mist lifted it, it hovered in mid-air, speaking.

"Soul is our power, by reclaiming the soul, we regain our strength."

"Aphro's duty is to fight, to defend the Dream Realm, it's a powerful Guardian Spirit that receives great combat bonuses in the Dream Realm, can unleash Divinity for even stronger power, and limitedly leave the Dream Realm to fight nearby, in the next invasion, you'll see its mighty battle prowess."

As the Book of Knowledge spoke, the doll stood quietly behind it, motionless.

If mist could cover her joints, she really looked like a golden female War God.

This image inexplicably reminded Rod of another friend, who was also one of the new stars, had once taught him in a secret branch, said to have gone to North City for battle, he hadn't seen her for a long time.

This diverging thought was quickly pulled back by Rod, he looked at the Book of Knowledge expectantly, awaiting its self-introduction.

Sure enough, the Book of Knowledge did not disappoint and spoke up.

"And I, master of all truths, comprehender of all laws, filled with wisdom and courage, the Book of Knowledge, am responsible for guiding, nurturing, reprimanding, maintaining the Dream Realm and its unlucky master, directing them forward, avoiding them falling into the whirlpool of confusion, the master's guiding light, that is me, Adorlis."

Rod really wanted to raise his middle finger, but he resisted.

"Book, talk a bit practical, I've heard your self-aggrandizing words too many times, whenever you gain Soul Fragments, you say this, but when put to use, you're like an idiot."

The Book of Knowledge's pages flipped violently.

"When have I been like an idiot? You can't slander my wisdom! Even the master can't... alright, fine."

Rod withdrew his finger, speaking lightly.

"Book, say something useful... like what is the Dream Realm, did you remember?"

As soon as the words fell, the Book of Knowledge calmed down.

It closed its pages and floated to the doll's chest.

The doll reached out both hands and gently held it.

The golden aura on the pages harmonized with the doll, its large golden cover facing Rod, with every engraved line in its original place.

The atmosphere suddenly became solemn and still.

"Master."

The Book of Knowledge spoke solemnly, its voice cleansed of flamboyant levity, becoming steady.

"Regarding the Dream Realm, we remembered a lot, although not everything, but we can already know its generality."
