章 320: Chapter 321: Comparison Is the Thief of Joy
"Nothing much, just looking forward to the father-daughter reunion tonight," said the Angel of Secrets, with an increasingly gentle smile and a hint of meaning. "I hope they don't end up fighting."
"Ah?" Klein was taken aback.
"Huh?" Lynn showed an appropriately confused expression.
After exchanging a glance, Klein cautiously asked, "Why would they fight?"
Even without an answer, Klein's intuition told him that this likely had something to do with the angel before him.
"There's no helping it. Roselle always wrote scandalous news in his diary instead of doing serious work. Bernadette naturally got angry when she found out," the Angel of Secrets explained, with a seemingly helpless smile.
"Bernadette... How did she find out what was in Roselle's diary?" Klein couldn't help but ask.
"Of course, I read it to her," the Angel of Secrets answered frankly. He looked at Klein and continued, "If everything goes as planned, Roselle himself should be reading his diary to Bernadette tonight. You can enjoy a good show."
Klein: ... What the heck! What kind of devilish move is this?
Klein was stunned. Having read many of Roselle's diaries, he knew very well what kind of content they contained. While there was a lot of serious stuff, there was also plenty of inappropriate material.
Klein couldn't even imagine what the scene would be like when Roselle read those scandalous entries to his daughter.
This isn't just social suicide; it's social obliteration!
'Even though the emperor was quite wild, he didn't deserve this...' Klein swallowed hard. Despite often complaining about Roselle's wild behavior, he felt a sincere sense of sympathy for Roselle at that moment.
Roselle would probably want to die from embarrassment!
And Klein could clearly understand that the reason things developed this way was due to a certain angel's machinations.
'Devil...' Klein glanced at the Angel of Secrets, then quickly looked away, unable to help but think of his mischievous friend, Lynn.
Klein recalled Lynn's pranks and, while he thought Lynn was already quite devious, he now realized that compared to the true devilishness of the Angel of Secrets, Lynn's pranks were nothing.
'Comparison is the thief of joy.' Klein felt that it was Lynn, not the Angel of Secrets, who was persecuting him, and felt somewhat relieved.
Klein couldn't even imagine being in Roselle's position, having to read his own diary, especially that kind of diary. He might as well just smash his head against the Sefirah Castle and die.
"Now you see how good I am. I'm not as devilish as some people," Lynn said, patting Klein's shoulder meaningfully.
Klein almost nodded instinctively, then hesitated and eventually said, "Isn't there a possibility that persecuting someone is inherently wrong?"
"What? I can't hear you," Lynn said, feigning ignorance and looking around.
Klein's mouth twitched, and he shook his head helplessly.
The Angel of Secrets took a sip of coffee and continued, "As for the third matter, it also involves the dream space."
The Angel of Secrets looked at Klein and smiled, "If you're willing, you can use the dream space to study with Bethel while you sleep."
"Study?" Klein was taken aback, clearly not expecting this twist. He frowned but didn't outright reject it.
Klein wasn't opposed to studying. In fact, after learning from Mr. Door for a few days, he realized how vast Mr. Door's knowledge was. Klein often found himself wanting more time to learn, as lessons were often cut short due to limited spirituality in the Sefirah Castle.
So, Klein didn't mind studying in the dream, but he had some concerns: "Is it safe to study in the dream? There's no Sefirah Castle to isolate pollution..."
"Don't worry, in the dream space I've created, no one can corrupt you," the Angel of Secrets reassured Klein. "Otherwise, I wouldn't let Roselle and his daughter meet there."
Klein felt relieved and then asked, "Will studying in the dream affect my state the next day? Even if the body rests, the mind is still active..."
"For that, you can have Lynn helping you. Many abilities of the Spectator pathway can alleviate mental fatigue easily. Combined with the appropriate potions, you theoretically won't have any problems even if you study all night..." The Angel of Secrets' words sounded almost demonic, but theoretically, it was feasible—like the Sleepless pathway, who could work day and night without rest.
Seeing Klein's changing expression, Lynn couldn't help but laugh and continued with the Angel of Secrets persona, "Of course, balancing work and rest is important in learning. You can decide how much time to spend studying each night and use the remaining time for rest. I won't impose strict rules; I just hope you can learn as much as possible."
Klein sighed in relief.
Though he was used to intense study from a young age, the idea of working all day and studying all night was too much, even for Klein. Even if his body and spirit could handle it, his mind probably couldn't—like angels who theoretically could work endlessly without dying, but even seasoned workaholics like Sasrir would struggle with endless work.
However, Klein could accept studying a few extra hours in the dream each night while resting normally otherwise.
The Angel of Secrets then conjured two colorful bubbles and handed them to Klein and Lynn, saying, "These are the mediums to enter the dream space. When the time comes, I'll pull you in through them, so be prepared."
The Angel of Secrets paused and, looking at Klein, added, "I'll schedule the meeting a little late. So, you can retrieve the Black Emperor card."
