After the first meeting, Lod led Nemu to the forty-sixth room in the center.
They walked down a spiral staircase and reached the deepest part. After passing through several sealing barriers, there was a huge, well shaped library in front of them.
From the time Soul Society was established until now, everything that had happened had been automatically sorted into relevant books and stored in this well shaped library.
Nemu carefully came to the edge of the well and stuck out her little head to look down. However, she found that she could not see the bottom at all, as if it was a tunnel leading to the abyss.
"So deep, so scary."
Nemu lay by the well, his eyes a little timid. He asked, "Brother, why did you bring me to the Great Spirit Book Corridor?"
"I'll let you see someone."
Lod smiled and touched her hair. Then, he held her hand and stepped onto a floating platform. He said, "In the future, if something happens to me, you can come here and seek help from that person."
"No!"
Nemu suddenly shouted loudly and tightly hugged Lod's arm. Her big black eyes suddenly became moist, full of worry. She said, "Big brother will definitely be fine, right?"
"I hope so."
Lod smiled and said no more.
Nemu seemed to have something on her mind, and she was no longer mischievous along the way. Her small face was full of uneasiness, and she held Lod's hand tightly, as if this was the only way to make her feel a little more at ease.
Soon, the floating platform reached the end.
A huge ancient bronze door stood in front of them. It was covered in mysterious patterns, and there was an indescribable feeling of vicissitudes, as if it had experienced the vicissitudes of time.
And below this bronze door, a handsome man with black hair and brown skin sat cross-legged in front of the bronze door, wearing a coarse linen coat. He was sizing the two of them up with his ice-blue eyes.
"Let me introduce you."
Lod held Nemu's small hand.
He pulled her in front of him and said to the man, "This child is called Nemu. She is my sister. You can treat her as me."
Then he squatted down again and stroked Nemu's black hair. He said gently, "That uncle is called Cain. He is the one I told you about before. If I encounter trouble or am not here in the future, you can come and find him."
"Hello, Uncle Cain."
Nemu greeted politely.
"Hello, child."
Cain glanced at Nemu. Although this did not match the conditions he had previously agreed to never interfere, for some reason, the pure gaze of the child seemed to have touched the soft spot in his heart.
After a moment of silence, Cain finally did not refuse. He nodded slightly at Nemu and said, "If it is not a very serious matter, try not to disturb me."
"I'm very happy that you didn't reject me."
Lod was a little surprised. Originally, he did not have much hope. He did not expect Cain to agree. Could it be that this guy liked children more?
"You seem to be different."
Cain did not answer this question. He only looked at Lod carefully. He frowned slightly and said, "I can feel a familiar power hidden in your body."
"Yes, many things have happened."
Lod sighed and said, "That is the power of the Seraph. I made a contract with Michael."
"So it's her. No wonder she is so familiar." When Cain heard Michael, his eyes clearly flickered. He seemed to be a little surprised, but he concealed it very well and did not let Lod notice it.
"There is one more thing I think I need to tell you."
Lod sat cross-legged facing each other, staring at the bronze door behind Cain. He said in a deep voice, "A hundred years ago, I met an incomplete Evil God. It summoned an ancient bronze door that looked extremely similar to the door behind you."
"I got it."
Cain did not react at all. He was still as expressionless as ice. After a few seconds of silence, he said, "If there's nothing else, you can leave this place."
"Aren't you going to explain?" Lod stared at him, trying to find a trace of surprise on his unchanging iceberg face, but unfortunately, he still failed in the end.
Cain had no intention of explaining at all. He slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Seeing this, Lod silently sighed, knowing that it was impossible to get any more words out of Cain's mouth.
This guy definitely knew some things, but he just liked to be a riddles person, making people want to open his head and see what secrets were hidden inside!
"Forget it, forget it."
Lod did not think that he could get words out of his mouth, so he was not too disappointed. He slowly stood up with his hands on his knees and said, "This time, besides this matter, I have a favor I need your help with."
Cain opened his eyes, revealing a hint of helplessness. "That wasn't what you promised me when I first came here."
"It was just a small favor that could be easily solved."
Lod then took out an irregular dark red crystal and said with a smile, "You should know what this thing is, right?"
"This is a fragment of the Garden of Eden?"
Cain frowned and carefully studied the fragment. He asked doubtfully, "Where did you get it from?"
"Garden of Eden fragment?"
Lod looked at Cain in surprise. He said in surprise, "This is a fragment of the Spiritual Prison. Michael read it from Naige and gave it to me for safekeeping."
Cain was silent for half a second. He smiled and said, "So this is how humans in this era call it?"
"What about the Garden of Eden you mentioned?" Lod faintly felt that this thing might be more important than he had imagined.
"It's nothing. I roughly understand what Michael is thinking." Cain seemed to be in a better mood. His lips curled into a faint smile. "Are you planning to use it to open up a new space here?"
"Your guess is correct."
Lod nodded slightly and said, "I plan to build a prison under the Great Spirit Book Corridor used to imprison criminals."
Cain's eyelids suddenly twitched, and an ominous premonition welled up in his heart. "You're not planning to let me guard this prison, are you?"
Lod smiled without a word, and his eyes confirmed his guess.
In any case, it was just to watch the library. It was better to develop a part-time job by the way. One or two would work. It was also fine to watch the prison.
Moreover, Cain was the first human being, and he had the 'seven times counter-injury' bestowed by God. God knew what other trump cards he still had. Even if the Weeping Angel came, it would be useless. He might even throw himself into the past space crack.
"I hope this is the last time."
Cain sighed helplessly. In the end, he still chose to compromise. "I just want to pursue an environment where no one disturbs me. So it is a prison, but I still don't want to see too many people."
"Don't worry about this."
Lod smiled and promised, "Maybe in a few hundred years, no one will be imprisoned."
Cain shut his mouth and did not say anything. He only sneered. He did not believe in Lod's promise.
Lod scratched his head awkwardly. Fortunately, he was thick-skinned enough. He ignored Cain's slightly disdainful gaze and muttered in his heart, "System, use [Special Building: Infernal Hell] here to fuse with the Limbo Fragment."
