Chapter 3 Weird Dreamland

Castle bathroom

A small room similar to the sweat steam in the previous life, with a half-person high bathtub built entirely with stone. The male servants brought hot water and Lis maid tried the water temperature.

"Master, you can take a shower."

Odin rejected Lis' unreasonable request to help wipe her body, and asked Lis' maid to close the door and go out.

"Oh~ so comfortable!"

Soaked in water, I reached out and touched the clearly visible ribs on my chest.

"This body is too thin. No wonder the practice of Dou Qi is stagnant. It seems that you have to practice well. Only with a good body can you enjoy life better."

As a middle-aged man with kidney deficiency in his previous life, the way to maintain health has penetrated into his soul. He has suffered from running around for life without a chance. Now that he has plenty of time, he has decided to strengthen his body and strive to enjoy two more years of happiness.

The old butler lit up the oil lamps in the study. Although this castle is a little old, its utensils are well maintained. Two oil lamps are enough to illuminate the study.

After taking a bath, Odin came to the study wearing a soft nightgown, hoping to deepen his understanding of the world through books. He said that after waking up from a coma, he had not entered the study.

Looking at the empty desk, Odin spoke out and asked the old butler waiting beside him.

"Modi, where is that book?"

"What kind of book master are you looking for?"

"It's the iron-packed book that smashed me into a coma!"

"Is that book? I remember it was on the ground, and there was still blood on the corners of the book. Later, I went to ask the pastor to treat you, so I didn't pay much attention. I guess it was the servant who put it into the bookshelf when he cleaned the study.

It seems to be an emerald green cover, with white iron sheets wrapped around the corners, which is quite thick."

The old housekeeper tried hard to recall the scene at that time. For him, it was really difficult for him to remember such an unintentional little thing.

"Forget it, if you don't see it, you won't see it. I'm just a little curious."

After saying that, he picked up a book called "Travels of the World" from the bookshelf and started reading it.

The original owner, Odin, had basically no obstacles in writing. He was proficient in languages ​​and scripts in several principalities on the mainland, and even dabbled in the elves and polar barbarians.

The original owner graduated from Knights Academy after all, and he was a bit useless, but he learned the fastest in other knowledge courses, which may be related to his introverted personality.

"Travels of the World" tells the story of a magician constantly exploring the unknown world and traveling almost the entire continent.

"There is only one continent in the center of the world, which is an irregular oval. Hum, it's interesting...

The elf forest in the south, the polar barbarians in the north, the endless mountains in the west, and the human countries in the east, are quite diverse...

There are countless islands around the continent, and there is also a mysterious dragon island deep in the sea. I heard that it is the birth and burial place of the giant dragon clan. No one has ever seen it with his own eyes. Tsk tsk..."

The introduction of the Danube Principality that Odin had been waiting for for a long time did not appear, which disappointed him a little.

In fact, this book was written more than 200 years ago. At that time, the Danube Principality had not been established, so of course it could not be found. The map of the town in Ruved's hand still did not know which lord painted it, and only the range of the huge stone lord.

"Backy technology, backward industry, and upper-class nobles only care about their own enjoyment, education, politics, and even medical care are all prepared for the aristocratic class. This map travel notation is just the interest of the magician, and it is written. It is really a deformed world!"

Odin sent me with emotion.

As for his desire to change the world and do something to make the serf turn over and become his master, he probably will be the first to lead his troops to destroy his relatives for justice.

Besides, he is not a young man in his twenties, and his life has smoothed his edges and corners. Now he just wants to be a noble master safely and be worthy of his reincarnation this time.

...

While Odin was immersed in reading, Butler Modi quietly brought a cup of hot milk on the table, and then quietly took it to the door and left.

As a housekeeper, you must know when to speak and when to shut up. You must be close and respectful to the master at all times. The fifty-year-old Modi is very clear about the measure in this.

Now, Modi is going to conduct the last castle inspection work today during the time when the master is reading, to ensure that there will be no sound in the castle after the master falls asleep.

After inspecting the dining room, living room, and kitchen in turn, he drove the idle servant back to the room, took out the key from his waist and locked it in the warehouse, ending all activities in the fort today, and after confirming that the castle was completely quiet, Modi walked along the original road to the study.

In the study room

Two oil lamps steadily release the orange-yellow light

After drinking a cup of hot milk, the warm feeling made Odin feel sleepy. He touched the remaining thickness of the pages and forced his eyelids to finish reading the last few pages while sleeping.

Seeing that the last page was about to turn over, he could no longer resist the sleepiness that was coming, and he buried his head and fell asleep.

He had a very vague dream. In the dream, he was still reading a book, but it was not the one he held.

The emerald green cover page and the iron-packed corner of the book. Looking at the book, I suddenly remembered what the butler said. Isn’t this the book that hit my head? Why did it appear in my dream?

As my brain thought, the vague dream became clearer. I looked around and was still in the study, and I was sitting on a chair.

The real touch from his hand made Odin wonder if he had woken up, but this strange book reminded him that this was definitely not reality.

After touching the milk cup, the remaining heat was so real that Odin pinched his thigh hard.

"Hiss~It hurts so much!"

I stood up and wanted to leave the study room, but found that I could not open the door.

"Modi! Why lock the door!"

Odin kicked the door hard, and was so exhausted that he was panting after a few kicks.

After several deep breaths, my brain calmed down. It had nothing to do with Modi. The door was strong and I could be kicked twice, but this door didn't react at all, like a stone wall. This was abnormal, very abnormal!

Odin returned to the chair and observed the book carefully. If there was any problem here, it must be the one that caused the book.

Gently stroke the cover with your hands, the emerald green color, the texture of cowhide, the texture of marble, the iron sheet covering the corners was very white, there was no blood stains mentioned by the butler, and there was no title of the book.

No matter how you look at it, it reveals a hint of weirdness, not like a serious book.

"You smashed me, and I didn't even go to trouble you, but you asked me to dream about it. What does it mean?"

Odin did not open it rashly, but tried to communicate. After all, there was all the magic of fighting spirit, and a book that could speak was nothing.

“…”

No response.

"Is it a spell that needs a matching one? But I haven't learned magic, it's hard to deal with it now... I don't care, let's open it and talk about it!"

“Is this God’s perspective?”

Am I looking at myself from the perspective of God?

Can you really see it?

or……

Zoom in a little bit?

Crazy thoughts grow in my mind and I can't stop this impulse.

Suddenly, a strong sense of dizziness came, and Odin felt like he was spinning and stood up suddenly.

"Master! Master! Go to the bedroom to sleep."

A kind butler face appeared in front of him.

"Modi?"

"Sorry, the study is too cold, so go back to the bedroom to go to bed."

"Well, help me over, my legs are numb."

The dizziness in my brain had not subsided yet, and I hurriedly glanced at the book on the table, which was exactly the travel notes of the world I read before.
Chapter completed!
