Here, the Lord said this is a good thing

"you are……"

Before Ye He revealed Lawrence's identity, Edward suddenly stood up and looked at Lawrence in surprise, attracting everyone's attention.

"Are you the author of On the Psychology of Crime, Mr. Kim Lawrence?"

No one expected that Edward was actually a fan of Lawrence. His face showed the surprise of suddenly meeting his idol, and his nervousness was evident in his words.

"I've been protesting against them putting my photo on the title page of the book...but the book was banned and destroyed after only a hundred copies were sold, right?"

Lawrence was very calm, mature and in control of the situation.

Considering that he had put Yehe into "danger" time and time again, it is not surprising that he could write that kind of book.

However, Ye He always thought that Moriarty was the kind of "criminal mentor" character.

"No, I have the first edition here! Oh... it's a pity that I didn't bring it with me. It's a masterpiece that my father, grandfather, and I all love. Please sign it for me!"

"Later," Lawrence ignored Edward's excitement and turned his gaze back to Ye He's face:
"I warned Moriarty that he would run into trouble with you, but he never listened to me."

"Oh? He's yours..."

"A bastard... people always make mistakes, don't they?"

Lawrence told a big secret without changing his expression, which also put Ye He's doubts to rest.

Not surprising then.

"Sorry, I tend to get sidetracked at my age. Where were we just now?"

After completing the "personal reminder" to Ye He, Lawrence prepared to continue to complete his purpose of coming back to find Ye He.

"Golden demon."

Considering the other person's age, Ye He cooperated and continued the topic.

"Yes, the Golden Demon, a subordinate of the King of Eternal Night, and one of the twelve original demons. It is a reflection of desire and the embodiment of the concept of "changing the basic form of existence of matter."

"The King of Eternal Night?"

Ye He has always been good at extracting the key points and keeping the topic going.

“To be precise, this is the ‘King of Eternal Night City’.

No one knows his true name, but in the era when he was active, he was the master of all monsters.

The existing monster king, including the one in the Imperial Research Institute, should actually be his creations!"

Lawrence pulled out a pipe filled with tobacco from his arms and lit a match.

When he lit a cigarette for himself, his hands were shaking slightly, causing the flame to shake constantly.

This seemed to indicate that Lawrence himself also attached great importance to this secret, and his heart was by no means as calm as his tone when he stated this secret.

Edward, Monica, and Sandra at the counter were already shocked by the secrets Lawrence told them.

Is this information I can hear?

"In fact, tomorrow night after the auction is over, I will set off to the ruins of Sacred Heart City to see the castle that has reappeared in the world."

Seeing that Lawrence was busy using tobacco to calm his emotions and had no extra information to share for the time being, Ye He announced his itinerary.

Then he saw Lawrence almost drop his pipe on the ground, with his head raised and neck stiffened, looking at him in horror.

"That...that castle? The City of Eternal Night...has reappeared in the world?"

"Don't you know yet?"

Ye He grinned and showed Lawrence his big white teeth!

"That was more than 20 days ago!"

……

Lawrence, who had recovered from his shock, provided Ye He with a lot of information about the City of Eternal Night.

He also handed Ye He a very old notebook and told Ye He the client who asked him to pass on information to Ye He.

"Simon Belmont..."

Ye He, who had returned to the Continental Hotel, was sitting behind his office. He placed his right hand on the old notebook Lawrence had given him and tapped on it with his fingers.

Through Caesar's scan, Ye He was able to examine the contents of the notebook without opening the cover.

The reason for doing this is that this notebook is too old, and turning the pages too hard may cause the pages to break.

Moreover, Ye He basically could not recognize the words composed of letters written in small languages, and it would be too torturous for him to read them with his naked eyes.

Through Caesar's scanning and translation, Yehe can also more easily understand the contents recorded therein.

The first sentence written in this notebook almost made Ye He go back to cause trouble for Lawrence:
"This is the knowledge I, Leon Belmont, recorded in order to completely destroy the [Immortal King]! Only members of the Belmont family can read it. If you are not Belmont, then you are now!"

Don’t underestimate the value of the four words “Now is the time”, because this notebook has the following title in Ye He’s personal dashboard:
[Knowledge inherited by the Belmont family] (Special job transfer item)
If Ye He hadn't used Caesar to read this sentence, when he actually opened the notebook and saw this sentence...

The power of destiny in this notebook will take effect immediately! Let Ye He immediately obtain the "Belmont" bloodline!
Rather than calling it a kind of "inheritance", Ye He would rather call it an unsolvable "curse of fate", a "virus" that once infected, there is no escape and there is no antidote!
This was not a good thing for Ye He, but fortunately he was cautious enough... and lazy enough.

However, Yehe can also see Simon Belmont's "good intentions" from this.

The last descendant of the Belmont family is unable to challenge the Eternal Night City, but he wants to drag down Ye He, the "strongest human being", into the water!

Ah……

Ye He, who did not let him succeed, sneered, and then continued to review the contents of the notebook through Caesar.

“Lucia is my fiancée, a lively girl full of adventurous spirit, but I never expected that she would go deep into the Evernight City for adventure.

In order to find Lucia who never came back, I formed the first team to defeat the [Immortal King], but we couldn't even get into the gate of the castle!

The monster guarding the gate has a pair of bull horns and a bull's tail. The double-edged axe it uses can chop a fully armed knight in half with one blow, including the horse and the man!

My friend Jenkins has discovered its weak point, which is the base of its tail, but since the expeditionary team suffered heavy casualties and I was knocked unconscious by the axe, he could only take me away from the bridge."

Jenkins?
Suddenly seeing the name of the first generation of Williamette in this diary-like notebook, Ye He couldn't help but curl his lips, and yearned for that magnificent era more and more. But the first generation of Belmont who wrote this "diary" did not seem to realize the potential of his best friend.

Before long, he and Jenkins quarreled over the selection of members for the re-formed expedition team and expelled Jenkins from the team.

You are so brave! Mr. Lyon! You just gave up the greatest help you could have used!
Sure enough, after losing the first generation Williamette, Leon Belmont began a career of repeated defeats. He spent all his family wealth, formed new expedition teams again and again, and almost piled himself up in the City of Eternal Night with heads.

Among them, he transcribed and recorded a large amount of what he saw and heard in the Eternal Night City, as well as information about the monsters in the Eternal Night City. These were the information that was more useful to Ye He.

But the most important thing is the record about the Lord of Evernight City, the Immortal King. Leon Belmont only has a few words:

"I lost... I couldn't possibly be His opponent... He didn't even kill me, nor torture me... Maybe He felt that I wasn't even worthy of dying at His hands?"

At the end of the "Diary", Leon Belmont said from the bottom of his heart, "I will not accept this!", which vividly displayed the helpless rage of a defeated weakling.

"That's it?"

Ye He loosened his fingers in disappointment, and his respect for the fate of the Belmont family dropped to freezing point.

He used to think that Leon Belmont was quite brave.

The entire Belmont family was able to keep an eye on the [Immortal King] for hundreds of years, and was even willing to continue this responsibility by risking the curse of fate. This was extremely courageous.

But losers are losers.

Those who cannot achieve their goals and become successful do not even have the qualifications to have their names recorded in history books.

This kind of "iron-headed kid" experience is not even worthy of being used as a negative example to promote in the opposite direction.

At least in Yehe's case, the only usefulness of the entire Belmont family is the records in this "diary" about the environment and monster information of Eternal Night City.

"It's better than nothing..."

Ye He turned his head to look at the setting sun outside the window, and began to wonder what kind of changes would come to the City of Eternal Night with the addition of [Despicable Prince] and other disaster witches.

Through the information currently collected, Ye He has confirmed that [Despicable Prince] and [Disorderly Prince] were taken away under duress by the Golden Demon.

No matter whether they are willing now or not, they will definitely join the City of Eternal Night in the end.

The so-called "Frost Kingdom", the frost forest has been almost razed to the ground by Cassio!

After the four witches of disaster are beaten to a bloody pulp by Cassio, they will definitely choose a force that is strong enough to support them in "establishing a country".

At first, Ye He thought that they would eventually come under his command, and he actually didn't mind playing a "national war game" like "playing house" with William IV.

But now they have a more suitable place to go, but this is not necessarily a bad thing for Yehe.

Ye He knew that Cassio would soon discover that all the witches of disaster had disappeared, and then he would be sent by William IV to Angelababy to test the City of Eternal Night.

Perhaps there will be a Catalina who has also completed the suppression mission?
Then... Ekaterina might also be watching the Eternal Night City in secret, protecting the growth of her nephews and nieces as a protector, while keeping an eye on the monsters in the Eternal Night City that can "generate electricity".

The information I released to the outside world that I would leave for Eternal Night City tomorrow night should be correct.

For her own sake and to save energy, Ekaterina should not fight the [Immortal King] before herself.

Ye He didn't want her to scare the [Immortal King] away, then tear the Eternal Night City into pieces, pack up those monsters, and bring them all back to the vicinity of Sedawell for research.

Don't doubt it, Ekaterina definitely has the ability to do this.

"My lord, Her Highness Catalina invites you to dinner."

Rose came in and conveyed the news to Ye He as if to verify Ye He's guess.

"Well, I'll go down right away... That's right!"

Ye He, who was about to leave his desk, suddenly stopped, picked up the notes on the desk and handed them to Rose.

"There are two more auctions today...right?"

"Yes."

When Rose took the notebook handed to her by Ye He, she was shocked by the sense of history contained in the notebook.

After all, it is a historical relic from before the founding of the People's Republic of China. The notebook has been preserved to this extent thanks to the fate curse on it.

As history progresses, some of the power of this fateful curse has seeped into the carrier of the material world, which is this notebook.

Therefore, no matter who looks at this notebook directly, they will immediately notice its "historical weight" and think that it must be a "treasure"!
"Use this to replace the last lot of today's auction, and then..."

An evil smile that seemed to be creating unrest in the world quickly appeared on Ye He's mouth, making him particularly charming!

"This is a note about the deeds of the Williamson family's ancestors before the founding of the country!"

Rose stood there in a daze, her hands tightened and she almost crushed the notebook.

It was only because Ye He pressed her finger in time that the fragile notebook was saved.

"Sir...sir..."

But Rose's voice couldn't help but tremble.

This is within the empire? Publicly auctioning the secrets of the founding monarch? What on earth are you trying to do? ? ?

"Don't worry, those Williamites... they all know about the existence of this thing, and they won't care about it. Just do as I say. I'm going to have dinner with Catalina."

Ye He patted Rose's shoulder. After all, Rose was his right-hand man, so Ye He mercifully comforted Rose and calmed her frightened mood.

When Ye He arrived at the restaurant, Catalina was already waiting there.

At this moment, Catalina was playing with a pearl as big as her fist. This was a treasure that Ye He had picked up casually from the Church of Poseidon, and it was bought by Catalina at the auction today.

Whether it is used for viewing or to show goodwill to the Church of Poseidon, this thing is quite suitable, but Ye He no longer cares about Katarina's little thoughts.

As soon as he sat down, Ye He asked Catalina directly:
"Are you ready to go to Angelababy?"

"I'd love to go... but unfortunately, my father doesn't seem to want us to disturb your fun."

Catalina quickly understood what Ye He was talking about, but the meaning of William IV that she conveyed surprised Ye He:
"That's not a place our father allows us to get involved in, so... you can only enjoy your journey of "revisiting the old place" alone!"
