Without Louis knowing at all, the dark underbelly of Tino City had already descended into chaos.
Louis waited for a while, but no attack came his way.
Moreover, with William staying in the room at the end of his Prince's Mansion tonight, Louis's unease was considerably reduced.
But expecting him to get a good night's sleep tonight was out of the question.
The sleepless Louis decided to take a look at the future diary.
Only when he opened the future diary, his hairs stood on end in an instant.
Louis flipped through the future diary from left to right, and was dumbfounded.
The most recent update of the future diary was after the sapphire dragon disaster had ended, where the last outcome was him raising the battle flag to avenge the world.
But when he just opened the future diary, he found that all the future narratives had vanished.
The future diary had completely synchronized with the content of the actual diary.
He couldn't understand what was going on, but a pretty far-fetched thought crossed his mind.
If the future diary hadn't malfunctioned, the most likely scenario was that when he left the diary in the study, it silently updated once.
He recalled the last time he had looked at the diary, and immediately remembered that he had just roughly flipped through it yesterday morning.
In other words, the diary had quietly updated once while he was on the way to Charming Street with the swan yesterday?
But why did the future diary completely synchronize with the original diary's content?
Louis vaguely had an answer in his heart.
"Could it be that due to some irresistible force, I lost the future diary?"
"No, this seems unlikely. The biggest possibility is that I no longer have the chance to write down the future diary, perhaps because... I'm dead?"
Thinking of this, and recalling the nightmare he had earlier, he suddenly felt a bit uneasy.
Could it be that he had just had a brush with death?
Just as Louis was about to call William to head directly to the Imperial Palace, he saw the future diary in his hand emit a burst of red light again.
In an instant, the future content that had disappeared from the diary began to reappear page by page.
Σ(☉▽☉"a
He was dumbfounded.
What the hell.
What's going on with this future diary? Delays?
Is it messing around like disconnection in Dungeon & Fighter!
He couldn't wait to turn to the most recent records of future content and take a look.
"Although I realized that people other than me could impact the great momentum and thus push the future diary to update, I didn't expect such a huge storm to arise in so short a time after being reborn."
"After a few tense days, I finally understood that it was the case of the Maiji poisoning we just handled yesterday that pushed the diary to update."
"I initially thought the end of the Maiji poisoning case was discovering the poison master from the dark side of the Love God and genuinely believed the poison master's aim was to hinder Instructor Jino's advancement to legend rank."
"But upon re-evaluation, I found that it wasn't so."
"The poison master indeed belongs to the dark side of the Love God, but this time his operation was to cooperate with the Abyssal Church to test the situation with the Emperor."
"The Abyssal Church had laid out a series of plans in Tino City, including but not limited to —"
"A few years ago, under the guise of resurrecting the Mad King, they supported the Rudelson Organization to set up a living dead altar at the Dragonbone Prairie."
"Among the missing Adventurer Guild personnel in the sewers, perhaps they also had a hand."
"Beatrice, through the Secret Guard, read the memories of the Abyssal scout and finally completed the entire conspiracy chain."
"They captured Grace's father, hoping to use this method to induce the yet-to-awaken Libra Saintess to conflict with the Rudelson Organization."
"Because the power of the God of Glory and Justice is most effective against the Abyssal Church, they want to eliminate Grace but do not want to risk being hunted by the Church of Glory."
"However, due to my intervention, the Dragonbone Prairie became a focal point, nearly implicating their exposure."
"In desperation, they had to use Abyssal magic to erase Grace's father's memory and send him back home."
"After that, they attempted once again through a grain warehouse dust explosion to test whether the Emperor had any reaction."
"At the same time, they started setting up altars for the Abyssal Four Gods in the ruins of the outer city."
"As I guessed, they tried to lure dungeon monsters under the Imperial Bedroom to test whether the Emperor would awaken."
"However, all of the Abyssal Church's layout failed due to either chance or necessity."
"Then the most cunning move came."
"Among this group of Abyssal Church believers, an Elf Spy from the Supreme Forest had mixed in."
"Because of his presence, the Abyssal Church's plans were full of many incomprehensible issues for me, but with exposure, these issues were all resolved."
"First, after he unintentionally discovered Factory Director Snow's affairs, he directly took on the appearance of the Rudelson Organization's head and gave Snow the idea of 'creating an explosion to neutralize elemental waste'.
"Previously, I hadn't linked this together, but who knows the solution to elemental waste better than those elves from the Supreme Forest?"
"Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to sell processing devices across the continent."
"Then this Elf Spy received a task from certain white gloves of the Am Empire who handed it to the Abyssal Church, kill Marquis York, and open the doors of Ense Trading."
"Under the Abyssal Church's instructions, he found the top poison master of the Love God's dark side hidden in Charming Street, ready to trade a substantial bounty from the Am Empire and collaborate with the dark side to poison Marquis York."
"Marquis York had heavily cracked down on illegal slave trade, seriously affecting the lower-level personnel from the Love God's dark side."
"With money on offer and the ability to diffuse blame, the dark side of the Love God wouldn't refuse."
"In the end, this Elf Spy did something incredibly bold."
"He wanted the poison master to precisely concoct the poison and control its spread, leaving Rein Kaichen in a vegetative state after treatment."
"A dead Rein is tantamount to Jino being stabbed directly to the heart."
"A half-alive Kaichen is like slicing away slowly, potentially affecting Jino even more significantly."
"This decision aligns more with the interests of the Supreme Forest."
"He then persuaded the head of the Abyssal Church with the reason that:"
"A half-dead Rein will greatly draw Jino's attention away, lowering the protection from the Royal Guard for the Imperial Palace, which benefits us in probing Emperor's intelligence."
"The Love God's dark side accepted the terms, but requested that the Abyssal Church share intelligence after probing."
"The Abyssal Church agreed to this request."
"And the Elf Spy, in turn, informed the Druids lurking outside of Tino City."
"The elves intended, with the Abyssal Church taking the fall, to have the Druids also explore some intelligence."
"The Elf Spy also received a final task passed down from the Supreme Forest—"
"Pretend to be a member of the Abyssal Church to kill me and frame the Abyssal Church."
"Because over at the Supreme Forest, they had obtained secret information that my cooperation with the White Tower had shaken their pillar industry—waste processing."
"But due to the Little Swan's interference, the two of us disrupted their final plan, forcing them to take action ahead of schedule."
"This explains the original timeline where the Druids clashed with Tino City due to the explosion."
Louis took a breath of cool air.
He never expected the events he encountered during this time to have so many twists and turns.
In the end, he could only shake his head and curse:
"As expected, there's no such thing as extreme environmentalism; under the ideology, it's all business."
But at least one thing is worth celebrating.
His little life was saved.
Thanks to the wise and clever big wife who traveled a thousand miles to save her husband!
