At night.

Han Dong specially ordered the dormitory administrator to bring three servings of food.

He shared dinner with the two detained in their dormitory room.

The main purpose was to know more about Togu Gonzales… After all, Han Dong had dragged him into the prison forcibly and the two were bound by a Master-Servant Relationship, rather than being ‘close friends’ like Chen Li.

Chen Li seemed to reject Togu somewhat, sticking closely to Han Dong while eating.

During dinner, Togu was the most polite and ate the cleanest among them.

After finishing the super-large three-tenths-cooked steak.

Togu kept cutting the plate into small pieces, chewing them properly and swallowing them down.

Even the metal fork and knife and the small spoon for the soup were eaten in the end, leaving no trace.

His pure black eyes were fixated on the plate the entire time, without speaking a word, he was obediently seated in his place, without any unnecessary movements.

“Togu, you should be able to understand what I’m saying, right?”

As Han Dong asked, Togu slowly opened his sharp-toothed mouth, uttering demonic words from deep within his throat which Han Dong could understand due to their master-servant relationship:

“Yes, what do you need to order?”

“As long as we can communicate properly…”

Truthfully, Han Dong did not really want to treat the detained as servants to be ordered around.

Living harmoniously is the core principle Han Dong upholds.

The main issue is that if a good foundation of relationship can be established, the detained would do their best to assist.

“You can express any physiological requirements you have. I heard you like to whip yourself, I can provide the necessary tools and space for this…even if you need me to do it, I can.”

Self-whippings were one of Togu’s hobbies, when Han Dong pointed this out, his expression changed slightly.

“Thank you.”

“We’ll have a chance to go to Old Derry Town in the future, be it issues relating to the clown, or about you, we can think of ways to solve them then.

You can share any thoughts you have with me.

As long as they aren’t too excessive, we can negotiate.”

When Old Derry Town was brought up, Togu remained calm. He shifted his concept of ‘home’ unconsciously.

Now, Cell No.2 is his home.

“Thank you.” Togu’s expression didn’t change.

Han Dong gestured Chen Li to return to the prison and rest.

“We’ll stay in the room tonight, and I’ll test your physical strength.”

He used a fairly euphemistic term, brought a chain, locked the door and windows of the dormitory… prepared to build their relationship through ‘common interest’.

After a one hour session of ‘iron whip massage’, Han Dong received an intimacy change notification from his brain.

Setting aside the Master-Servant Relationship.

His intimacy level with Togu had changed to ‘neutral’.

The next day.

A refreshed Han Dong rushed to the Stargazing Room early in the morning to discuss the issues about his ‘personal fate’ with Mr. Black White.

Getting straight to the point.

Han Dong quickly asked if the Bell Tower could locate specific fate events.

“No, the Bell Tower can control the entrance to the Door of Fate to a certain extent, create tools to aid in passing the fate events…but interventions of ‘subjective nature’ can’t be made.

However, I can help with one thing”

Mr. Black White held the power card Han Dong just obtained.

“Since the ‘Fate Card’ can assist you in choosing any event with difficulty not exceeding, I can take you to the Clock Tower and check whether there are event backgrounds for Apprentice Knights within two stars difficulty that you want.”

“Thank you, Mr. Black White.”

“Yes…this falls within your ‘wish’.

The special and important nature of the Clock Tower even surpasses the entire National Royal Academy of Knights…even regular knights are forbidden from entering the council of the Clock Tower.

I’ll be taking you there this time, there will be no talking throughout the journey, just follow me.”

“Okay!”

Han Dong himself was also curious about the Clock Tower, whether it was the mysterious ‘Clockmaker’ or countless derivative devices related to the Clock Tower.

The essence of the Clock Tower might be a major secret to the Holy City.

“Mr. Black White, is there a risk of my secrets being leaked?

If there is a risk, I can wait outside the Clock Tower for the results.”

“It is precisely because there is a risk that I insist to bring you in personally.

Firstly, to highlight our mentor-protege relationship, secondly, to make you directly obtain the qualification to enter the Fate Space alone from the Clockmaker… If you were to be received alone by the Clockmaker later and he finds out your secret, then there would be real trouble.

Frankly speaking, your ‘wish’ is a bit over the top, it would require a not insignificant cost on my end.”

“Thank you, Mr. Black White.”

“Come with me.”

Before setting off, Mr. Black White swapped to his White Mask.

A sensation of ethereal atmosphere washed over them, a completely alien feeling which made Han Dong uncomfortable.

Han Dong was only familiar with and came to know Mr. Black White with the black mask.

Standing before the Bell Tower.

Mr. Black White seemed to have made contact with the interior through a special means.

One steam pipe after another slowly rose.

The Clockmaker with the Vortex Mask emerged, his aura seemed different from the clone Han Dong encountered last time…it’s very likely the main body.

“Mr. White!”

“Tommy.”

Both of them greeted each other warmly with their counterparts’ names and a polite hug when they met.

Following Mr. Black White’s explanation, the Clockmaker contemplated for a while, then led the two into the internal office area of the Bell Tower.

Through a mysterious gear elevator, they came to the central area of the Clock Tower after multiple location shifts.

“Mr. White, as for your visit to the Clock Tower today and this student independently entering the Fate Space, let’s pretend nothing happened… After all, such special solo events, once reported, could cause trouble for me.

Just consider it as dealing with some personal matter.””

“Thank you, Tommy.”

“I still trust Mr. White’s ‘judgement’.”

With that, the Clockmaker turned his head towards Han Dong, it seemed that there was a hidden smile beneath the Vortex Mask.

The mid-level office.

A unique crystal chamber, with various clocks hanging all over the wall.

As the Clockmaker adjusted all the clocks’ pointers to specific positions.

Clack clack clack

A crystal platform rose from the center of the room, on it was an ancient thick book about the size of the Sea of Words… This book recorded all the background names in the Fate Space.

In addition to its association with the Bell Tower, it owed its existence to the Holy City Writers’ Association.

The Clockmaker flipped the book to the corresponding pages.

“This section corresponds to the background of (Seed Period) events with difficulties less than two stars.”

“Thank you.”

Accompanying Mr. Black White, Han Dong began to swiftly flip through the book.

And Han Dong’s swift reading speed surprised the two seniors.

He could finish scanning both pages’ worth of text in a second, purposefully searching for the information he wanted.

“Found it!!”
