Angor sent the scroll into the dream wasteland using the Dream Whelk to help Freud manage Foundation City better. Apart from the scroll, there were also many other alchemy items.
Angor couldn't bring his real power into the dream wasteland, but he could still use these items to control someone.
Under the influence of the magic scroll, Roland had completely fallen into a state of confusion.
"What's your name?" Angor asked casually.
"Roland Nord," Roland answered after a moment of hesitation.
"So he didn't lie to Kim about his name."
"Rolando Nord. Is that really your real name?" Sunders suddenly asked.
Roland hesitated for a long time, and a lot of sweat seeped out of his forehead before he said softly, "No."
Angor was surprised by the answer.
"How do you know that, sir?" Angor frowned in confusion. "He's already hypnotized. How can he lie?"
"You once told Thewis that the real owner of the Crimson Crown is someone who shares the same bloodline as Goman King, right?"
"Since they share the same bloodline, they should share the same surname. And the Goman Royal Family's surname is Goman, not Nord. "
Roland's surname was obviously different from the real one, which was why Sunders wanted to know if it was a real name. As expected, Roland denied it.
"As for whether he's lying or not, let's ask him."
Roland seemed to be brooding over his name and answered hesitantly, "I know my name isn't Roland, because I don't think Nord is my surname."
"What do you think?" Angor frowned. What kind of situation would someone use words like "I think" to express their surname?
"I don't know my real name either. The king gave it to me later, so it's kind of my name," Roland answered.
Angor's question was answered now. Because he didn't know his real name, and had always used Roland's name in public, his answer before was not considered a lie even though it was a little back and forth.
"How come you don't know your real name?" Angor asked curiously.
Roland explained, "This is the price for the birth of the blackened personality. The moment he was born, my name was taken away."
Dark personality?!
Angor and Sunders exchanged a look. So the dark personality was Roland's "second personality"?
Angor didn't expect to find out such a secret when he asked for Roland's name to test whether the hypnosis worked or not.
And from Roland's answer, it could be deduced that the second personality, which was the blackened personality, was not Roland's original personality.
"What's with this dark personality?" Angor asked.
They were here to find out how to remove the Crimson Crown's Bloodline Retraction. Since the dark personality was preventing them from doing so, they had to learn more about it.
"It's because a mysterious person made a deal with the king," Roland explained.
At first, they thought that this blackened personality had appeared because of the Crimson Crown, but as Roland explained, they realized that there was more to it than meets the eye.
Roland's name was taken away, but he still remembered it.
It happened twenty years ago, when a mysterious person suddenly found Goman King. He showed up out of nowhere without warning, which alerted the entire Goman Royal Family.
Goman King seemed to have fought with the mysterious person and lost in the end.
Roland didn't know what happened after that, but Goman King and the mysterious person seemed to have reached an agreement. Several days later, Goman King brought the mysterious person to Roland.
Roland had already become the owner of the Crimson Crown and was grounded for three years. That was the first time he saw someone other than Goman King.
Goman King had brought the mysterious man to Roland because he had made a deal with the mysterious man.
Goman King didn't hide the deal from Roland. Instead, he made the deal in front of Roland.
The mysterious person came to Goman Kingdom to take a look at the Crimson Crown. And the price he paid was that Roland was born with a blackened personality.
Roland finished talking about the birth of the Darkened Personality, but there were still many things that were puzzling.
Especially the part about the mysterious person. He came to Goman Kingdom just to take a look at the Crimson Crown? This seemed to be a little too strange.
And how did this person give Roland the dark personality?
They asked Roland to tell them more about the mysterious person, but Roland didn't know much about him. This mysterious person was very secretive from the beginning to the end. Even his appearance seemed to be covered in a layer of mist, making it impossible to see him clearly.
According to the mysterious person, he didn't come from the southern region. He came from the source continent.
"From the source continent? Ever since the southern region lost the path to the source continent, there hasn't been a wizard from there for a long time, "Sunders said softly. But he didn't think the mysterious person would lie about such details. It was very likely that the mysterious person came from the source continent.
However, what was his motive for traveling from the distant Origin Continent to the southern region without a teleportation array? Just to take a look at the Crimson Crown?
Roland said, "I think he told King that he was looking for a Mystery item that was about to go out of control. And he said the Crimson Crown might go out of control. "
A Mystery item that went out of control? Angor never heard of such a thing before. He glanced at Sunders, who shook his head. Clearly, Sunders didn't know what a Mystery item was either.
"But the mysterious person looked disappointed when he saw the Crimson Crown. Clearly, the crown wasn't the item he was looking for."
The mysterious person's real goal was revealed, but it also brought more questions.
What did he mean by a Mystery item that went out of control? Why would he want something like that? "Are there deeper distinctions among the mysterious objects?"
"When I was in Dark Castle, I talked to Lady Isabelle, the Lord of Twilight. She told me that the Source Continent has a more detailed ranking system for Mystery items. But Lady Isabelle didn't know about it."
"So it's something of a higher level." Sunders didn't feel regretful at all. Instead, he looked excited.
Many wizards who stayed in the southern region for too long were completely limited to this world. After being shackled for too long, they would lose their sense of self and become complacent.
But Sunders wasn't such a person. He longed to improve himself, to learn more knowledge, and to seek the truth. The southern region was definitely not his final destination.
The news from the Source Continent was difficult to decipher, but it still made Sunders excited. That place represented the unknown, a higher level existence.
"We can't reach the mysterious person's goal for now, and there's no need to investigate it now." Sunders suppressed his excitement and turned to Roland. "But you haven't answered my question yet. How did he give birth to the dark personality?"
Roland said, "He took out a flute that he could play on his own. According to him, it was a mysterious item called the Dark Movement."
The effect of Dark Symphony was to gather all negative energy in one's body and forcefully give birth to the most evil personality.
However, when the new personality was born, his name would be taken away. It was a forceful process. Even if someone told Roland his real name, he would forget it in the next second. Therefore, Roland had to use the second name given to him by Goman King — Roland Nord.
This evil personality was both a good and bad thing for wizards. By abandoning all unnecessary emotions and focusing on selfishness, self-interest, and plunder, one's personal training would progress faster than one could imagine.
However, while the evil personality was inseparable from the main body, he had an independent training system. In other words, his training was his own and could not be combined with the main body.
There was one more thing that was important.
The evil personality would only obey the orders of the owner of Dark Symphony. When the mysterious person gave birth to the evil personality in Roland's body, the order he gave was —
"Obey Goman King's orders and protect the Crimson Crown! "
When the story reached this point, many unsolved mysteries were gradually solved. It turned out that the reason why Roland's blackened personality was so much weaker than his main body was because he had an independent cultivation system and could not merge with his main body.
As it turned out, the evil personality obeyed Goman King's orders because of the mysterious person.
"Where's the mysterious person now?"
"Twenty years ago, he made a deal with Goman King and left. He never came back."
If the mysterious person was gone, the evil personality would have to obey Goman King's orders.
…
They also asked more questions about Eureka's madness, and the general situation was similar to what they expected. It was true that Roland used the scroll in the suitcase to control the Crimson Crown, which led to the tragedy.
Now that everything was clear, the only problem was how to deal with the Crimson Crown. And to deal with the Crimson Crown, they had to deal with the evil personality.
"What will happen to the Crimson Crown if you die?"
The reason why Thewis and Sunders didn't dare to touch Roland was that they were afraid of what would happen to the Crimson Crown after Roland's death. But this was only their guess, and there was no proof. Now that Roland's main personality had been separated, they could ask for the real answer.
Roland said, "If I die, the blackened personality will replace me and completely control my body."
In other words, to kill Roland, they would have to kill him twice. The first time was when the main body died and the evil personality took over the corpse.
The second time was when the evil personality died.
"No wonder the dark personality kept yelling at you to kill him." Angor finally understood.
Roland continued, "The Crimson Crown won't do anything if my main body dies. But if the evil personality dies as well, the Crimson Crown will suffer unforeseen consequences. "
Roland didn't know because Goman King didn't tell him about it. But he was sure that Goman King would find the Crimson Crown's location immediately.
