Why did Chapter 6 skip the beginner's dungeon?
Rosen didn't keep him in suspense and said straightforwardly, "I want to learn about the history of this world and understand its current state..."
Rosen looked up and met Sasriel's gaze, his smile as gentle as an angel's:
"May I?"
He wasn't in a hurry for potion ingredients, nor would he directly ask the Sun God for them at this stage—even if the other side dared to give them to him, Rosen might not dare to take them.
But understanding the situation in the new world was essential for Rosen; after all, who would want to be blind in a strange world?
Sasriel paused for a second, then gave a gentle smile and said, "Of course, it's not an unreasonable request."
He then looked at Ammon and Adam and said, "Starting tomorrow, I will begin offering relevant courses, and you will also come and learn together."
Having received a satisfactory answer, Rosen continued to drink his juice with his head down.
Of course, he needed to understand the various aspects of this world. After all, the original work was just a book and couldn't possibly describe everything about a world. Even if Rosen knew a general idea of many things, he still needed to learn about them personally.
As for whether the sun gods would provide him with a truncated version of knowledge, Rosen didn't care. Having a truncated version of knowledge was better than having none at all, so Rosen wasn't picky.
……
Learning is not a painful thing for Rosen. In fact, most of the time, Rosen is happy to learn new knowledge, especially the parts that are useful to him.
This made Rosen even more engrossed in studying than his two adopted brothers, unintentionally inciting the other children of the gods to join in.
When Zhou Mingrui's will reawakened within the cotton doll, what he saw was a cub diligently studying a book made of parchment.
Zhou Mingrui was stunned for a moment.
Zhou Mingrui looked down to check his current physical condition.
Zhou Mingrui wanted to inhale oxygen.
"Calm down, Zhou. This isn't your first time time-traveling, so don't be so surprised."
Rosen, of course, wouldn't miss the cotton doll's movements. He glanced at the cotton doll's complex expression, closed the book in his hand, and said with a smile, "Besides, didn't I already tell you last time that I'd see you tomorrow?"
Zhou Mingrui was silent for a few seconds, probably resigned to his fate, before he couldn't help but complain, "...Is it possible that a week has passed since my last time travel?"
"Wow!" Rosen exclaimed dramatically, then laughed and said, "It seems there's a big difference in the flow of time between our two sides. Only 24 hours have passed here."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Mingrui showed a thoughtful expression. Then, as if remembering something, he looked at Rosen with a more serious expression and asked, "Sir, you said last time that you didn't know how all this happened, but you obviously can control my time travel..."
"It's not manipulation, it just allows you to go back earlier." Rosen shook his head, interrupting Zhou Mingrui, and said with a smile, "The vessel you are currently inhabiting has a weak connection with me, so I can choose to expel your consciousness back early, but I cannot control when you will descend into it."
After a pause, Rosen looked at Zhou Mingrui and said sincerely, "But I don't think you're in a hurry for me to take you back right now?"
Zhou Mingrui fell silent. He coughed lightly but did not deny it, saying, "I'm not in a hurry to go back."
If he were to be completely transported to a completely unfamiliar era, he would definitely look for a way home. But if he were only staying in a different world for a short time like this... As someone who grew up reading all sorts of time-travel stories, Zhou Mingrui admits that he is also curious about other worlds.
Rather, who wouldn't be curious in this situation?
However, before learning about this other world… Zhou Mingrui seemed to remember something, looked at Rosen, and tentatively said, “Although you probably already know, I still want to introduce myself here. I am Zhou Mingrui. May I ask how I should address you?”
"Rosen, Rosen Nicholas." Rosen didn't bother with any suspense and introduced himself straightforwardly. He then glanced at the young Zhou, who seemed rather naive and not quite a mature adult, and suddenly asked, "How old are you?"
"Uh, eighteen." Zhou Mingrui paused, then said somewhat embarrassedly, "I'm a freshman this year."
He then looked curiously at Rosen. Having taken care of the neighbor's child before, he could tell that the little boy in front of him was probably only three or four years old. However, Rosen, as a senior transmigrator, was obviously not that age, so Zhou Mingrui asked, "And you?"
So it really is Little Zhou... Rosen raised an eyebrow, then said seriously, "Strictly speaking, it should be less than two days."
"Huh?" Zhou Mingrui was clearly taken aback.
"No, I'm asking about your age before you time-traveled..." After realizing what Rosen was referring to, Zhou Mingrui couldn't help but ask again.
"That's a secret." Rosen made a taut sign to keep it confidential, and before Zhou Mingrui could press for more information, he chuckled and said, "Compared to these trivial questions, aren't you curious, young Zhou, about what kind of place you've traveled to?"
Zhou Mingrui's attention was immediately diverted, as he was genuinely curious about what kind of place he had transmigrated to. Although this was his second time transmigrating, the last time he had come in such a rush that he hadn't learned anything about this world.
Rosen didn't keep Zhou Mingrui in suspense and slowly introduced the current situation of this era: the chaotic and dark ancient god era has just ended, and everything is waiting to be rebuilt. The era of the sun god has just arrived. The budding of technology has not yet appeared, but mystery has never left. This era is an era in which gods and humans coexist, and also an era in which humans live together with extraordinary races, and so on.
There were many of these points of knowledge that Rosen had only just learned, but that didn't stop him from introducing them to Zhou Mingrui.
Of course, Rosen did not directly reveal the fact that this was a later era than Zhou Mingrui's, rather than an alternate world.
"...So there really are gods and angels in this world, and you are now the child of the Creator?" Even though he had prepared himself for the existence of extraordinary powers in this other world after he learned that he had transmigrated, Zhou Mingrui was still shocked at this moment.
After all, novels are novels and reality is reality. For a college student who has believed in materialism for the past 18 years, everything in the Third Era is too advanced, as if skipping the tutorial and directly facing the truth of the world.
"You can understand it that way." Rosen nodded, not offering any further explanation, but then suddenly seemed to remember something and asked with great interest, "By the way, do you want to meet my cheap brothers?"
