As Daedalus had dealt with the trap Ceridwen said "I will leave that journal and Hasien Torothine to you. It is clear that the journal itself was meant to kill me. Seriously he has clearly read the journal before, or been told what's in it, before the formation was even set, did he think I wouldn't sense that something was wrong with how he acted?"
Daedalus sighed and said "Do you think he is really the son of the patriarch?"
Ceridwen nodded solemnly and left the room, as she did she quietly said "Do me a favour and lock his talent and cultivation, I will be dealing with the Torothine noble family."
Daedalus turned back to the book in his hands just as her body flickered from its place, and opened the book to the third page. It was clearly an old book however Daedalus could also see that it was in a remarkably good condition. Just to be safe Daedalus carefully flipped through the pages while memorising each and every word he saw.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
It wasn't very long until Daedalus reached the last page. As he opened the journal to the last page Daedalus saw what it said "If you have read this far into my journal you probably have a good understanding as to who I am. As the person who set up this trial I have left this for someone worthy of my abilities. I hope you can take my knowledge and make it yours, bring my ancient name glory."
Daedalus after reading that slumped into his chair and thought about everything he had just read. From what Daedalus had previously learned this legacy world was millions of years old, and from what he just learned the person who set up the legacy world was still alive until a couple thousand years ago.
Quietly Daedalus put the journal into his spatial ring and sighed before leaving the room and walking toward the room he had given Hasien. When Daedalus had brought Hasien to his room previously he had felt that he had had a sort of sinister jubilation to him. So Daedalus had set up a shielding formation in order to trap him inside.
Back to the present and Daedalus could see Hasien banging against the shielding formation screaming profanities. Unimpressed Daedalus walked over and turned off the formation before grabbing Hasien and binding his arms and legs together.
Hasien of course just continued to scream at him until Daedalus put a ball of cloth in his mouth. Just to make sure that Hasien couldn't escape his binds Daedalus checked his cultivation only to be surprised. Hasien had no cultivation in the slightest and was in fact less fit that even a normal child.
As if sensing Daedalus shock and disdain Hasien said "So what if I don't cultivate, I am still better than pigs like you, at least I am of the noble Torothine family!"
Daedalus didn't even bother with Hasien anymore as he realised that the elf had likely been taught since young that nobody was as good as the Torothine family. It was a sad sight to see but one Daedalus saw anyway.
