Loren continued reading the contents of the diary. His guess was correct; the Dawn Princess's experiences truly matched the storybook.
[My older sisters bought beautiful new clothes again today and deliberately showed them off in front of . I can't even rember the last ti I bought clothes. Saying I'm not envious would be a lie, but if I could just attend the magic academy, I wouldn't need to buy new clothes for the rest of my life...]
[My older sisters have no magical talent, so they won't let go to the magic academy, saying the family has no money. Yet the money they spend on clothes could cover my tuition for a lifeti...]
[I heard the Observer is coming to our area soon to recruit students. The Observer has always taught without discrimination and never charges tuition. Maybe I can be chosen.]
...
After reading a few passages, Loren closed the book to take a breather. He never expected the Dawn Princess's backstory to be so similar to Cinderella's, except the prince in the story was replaced by the Perpetual Observer.
"No way, the Primordial Gods used to appear in the mortal world so casually back then? It's the complete opposite of the Orthodox Gods now..."
Even Loren couldn't help but feel a bit stunned hearing about the Perpetual Observer's seemingly casual appearance. This was the Perpetual Observer, one of the Primordial Gods, the deity of truth, eternity, and reason. How could He be like Confucius, seeing two children and imdiately offering teachings?
At the sa ti, Loren understood just how thoroughly the Orthodox Gods had acted. The Dawn Princess started as just an ordinary girl from a remote town. Even she knew of the Perpetual Observer. But now, there might not even be five people in the entire world who know of the Perpetual Observer.
[The Observer is coming here soon. I stole one of my sister's outfits. It's way too big for , but it's still much better than my own clothes.]
Loren skimd over this, quickly flipping through the diary's contents. These parts weren't useful to him. Loren was looking for the sections related to the Perpetual Observer.
[Stealing my sister's clothes was discovered. They beat up and locked in the woodshed. I'm used to the beatings, but I really want to see the Observer... I must escape...]
[The Observer has arrived. My sister has already gone to see Him. No, I have to go...]
The handwriting in this part was exceptionally ssy, indicating the Dawn Princess was truly desperate at that ti. The date of the next entry was very close, and the handwriting was equally chaotic, but this ti due to excitent:
[I escaped. The Observer had already co. The streets were crowded. I rushed in desperately and finally saw what the Observer looked like. He saw too, and then, among a crowd of prodigies, He chose .]
[Those people were all ones I could only look up to but never reach. My two older sisters were among them. I still can't forget the looks on their faces.]
Most of the following content detailed the Dawn Princess's learning process under the Observer. The Perpetual Observer had many students, truly giving Loren a Confucius-like feeling—teaching without discrimination. Among these students were people of all statuses and races, even including werewolves.
[This period was the happiest ti of my life. Teacher would answer all my questions, no matter how absurd the question was.]
[Under Teacher's guidance, my knowledge continuously expanded, and I learned many spells. I even invented a new spell for the first ti. Teacher was very happy.]
By now, the Dawn Princess's address for the Perpetual Observer had changed to "Teacher," officially beginning her own power fantasy journey. Even protagonists of power fantasies didn't have it as smooth as she did.
She wasn't that old at this point, yet she had already learned high-tier magic and even created original spells. Even Loren couldn't do that.
[Teacher's other students were all very good too. There was an older sister nad Amy who was very kind to . Although her na is cute, she herself is mature, steady, and very reliable.]
"!"
Loren was shocked. He realized he seed to have stumbled upon a major secret.
The na Amy is very common. So girl who died on the street yesterday might have been nad Amy. But this is also the true na of the God of Light and Fire.
Yes, that most powerful, most insane God of Light and Fire. Her true na is Amy.
That's why She is extrely sensitive about Her true na. Whenever soone utters this na while thinking of Her, they are instantly incinerated to ash on the spot. This applies regardless of whether the person saying the na is Her believer or not.
Loren had used this trick to sche against people before. First, trick soone into saying the na, then tell them it's the God of Light and Fire's na. They would die instantly.
"It can't be this much of a coincidence..."
Loren rapidly flipped through the diary, trying to find other nas. He didn't have to search hard; on the very next page, he found a familiar na.
[Older sister Somnia has a very good personality, gentle to everyone. She often offers useful suggestions when my research hits a bottleneck.]
Somnia is the na of the God of Dreams. One match might be a coincidence, but matching this many is different.
"The gods were once all students of the Perpetual Observer. Later, they betrayed the Perpetual Observer, stole the authority, and successfully ascended to godhood...
"It seems the Observer's disappearance isn't just due to the lack of authority. It's also inextricably linked to the various Orthodox Gods..."
Furthermore, the Orthodox Gods completely erasing the Perpetual Observer's existence wasn't just to prevent Him from enlightening the people. It was also to erase their own pasts.
Once all traces of the Perpetual Observer vanished, they could be the lofty, pristine Orthodox Gods. Betrayal? That simply never existed.
This world's Christmas is on January 1st, the day the gods descended. So, it's highly likely this day is also the anniversary of the Perpetual Observer's death.
"How utterly ironic..."
This diary didn't record much, but it truly gave Loren so explosive revelations. However, these weren't the diary's true purpose.
Loren closed the diary, then grabbed a specific part and rapidly flipped through it. A few letters on each page would flash. After flipping through the entire book, Loren also learned what spell was hidden within this diary.
"Super-tier Magic, 【Abyssal Sea Collapse】."
The diary contained magic power left by the Dawn Princess. When necessary, this super-tier magic could be cast through the diary. Although it doesn't consu the user's mana, it requires a long chant ti, and the magic can only be used once. After use, the diary will beco an ordinary notebook.
Now, this diary had beco Loren's greatest trump card. He had thought about searching for the Dawn Princess's diary before, but this item was highly sensitive. Even the Falling Star rchant Guild didn't dare accept such a task.
Now, coming to the Uridia Kingdom and casually obtaining one was an unexpected delight. Loren was very satisfied with the gains from this trip. Next, he just needed to fool that group of vampires and he could make a clean getaway. He just had to see Cecelia before leaving.
Just as Loren finished reading the diary, another vampire ca to see him. This ti, it wasn't soone sent by Ofemia.
