After reading through the entire document, I hand it back to Mirayuki. It has been such an amazing, interesting read. Very amusing.
"Jack, Mirayuki isn't lying. Could there be a mistake? Maybe the apostle is someone else?" Seraphiel suggests, crossing his arms.
Mirayuki looks at me, her eyes filled with concern, but I remain unwavering.
"I see... so that's how he fooled you all," I say, exhaling deeply. A subtle, knowing smile plays at the corners of my lips.
Even though both the records and Mirayuki now seem to side with Baek Hyeon-jun, I know for certain, beyond any shadow of a doubt, that he is the apostle of the Demon God Laplace.
"Mira, let me tell you something interesting," I begin, my voice cold and deliberate. "In that alternate timeline, the Queen of Celestein was the eleventh Ocular."
"Huh? But… I'm the eleventh Ocular, right?" Mirayuki asks, confused.
