While Byers had witnessed Phil's amputated arms, Weber's hanging death, and the insects gathering into a hand of the "Magician," and had a certain awareness of the eerie transformations brought by "0-02," his understanding remained somewhat superficial. He hadn't fully grasped the underlying terror, instead interpreting these events as ghost stories becoming real. Thus, at this moment, though he was afraid, he found the courage to step forward—boldly approaching the long rectangular table, a courage also influenced by the very nature of the "Seafarer's" journey. Within just a few steps, Byers had reached the point where he could easily touch the bronze book. Without pausing to think, he extended his right hand, grasped the bronze pages before "0-02," and quickly flipped through them. Throughout this process, Byles' forearm remained resting on the still-unfilled copper page, preventing it from being obscured so that both he and the "Magician" gentleman, as well as the "Angel" lady, could promptly observe any changes and respond in a timely manner. Amid the rustling sounds, the "Seafarer" noticed the clause stating that "touching the 'Trenzost Copper Book' would result in death," which initially sent him into a state of shock, followed by a strong sense of doubt about his current situation. However, this did not interrupt his action of turning the pages. In Caine's eyes, successive copper pages appeared, each bearing different sets of rules. These projections did not vanish one by one to be replaced by others, but instead existed side by side, gradually accumulating. In the end, within each of克莱恩's eyes, there remained distinct numbers of copper-leaf page images, neatly arranged in rows and rows, much like the "0–02" had been separated into individual pages and placed upon the glass table to bask in the sunlight. This was the angelic technique of "dream divination"—克莱恩 had now vividly recalled each of the things he had just seen. Over time, the copper-leaf pages within his deep brown, nearly black eyes began to rotate, gradually highlighting one in particular: "...the 'Trenzost Copper Book' originates from the 'Judgment' entity's 'uniqueness' corrupted by the 'Disordered Kingdom'..." Exactly as I anticipated—the 'Trenzost Copper Book,' being capable of revealing all underlying rules, must necessarily contain a description of itself within its own content! This is inherent to its nature—unless it is fully awakened or activated, possessing sufficient wisdom to choose when to conceal itself... As soon as Klein had a moment of joy flash through his mind, he saw new mercury words beginning to emerge on the previously blank copper page. This meant that "0–02" had finally broken free from its dead cycle, drawing forth part of its strength to add provisions, provide explanations, and repair flaws. "Leave!" Klein didn't hesitate—he simply shouted it. Byers strictly adhered to the higher authorities' instructions and immediately withdrew his right hand, turned around, and sprinted toward the落地 window. "Act as if you're attacking me," Klein added suddenly, upon seeing this dual-natured "sailor" now having departed the municipal library. Byers was deeply puzzled, yet still raised his right arm, pulled back his shoulders, and assumed the posture of about to punch Klein. At this point, the new provisions finally took shape: "The 'Trenzostor Bronze Book' and the groups it permits shall be exempted when enforcing these rules..." Nevertheless, even after this provision had been successfully enacted, Byers received no punishment. It was clearly evident that when issues arose from dead ends or ambiguities in definitions, the 'Trenzostor Bronze Book' itself remained unaccountable—just as it had previously remedied rule gaps without assigning any blame to the 'Mirror' Arōdes. For the same reason, Byers, who had genuinely interacted with the '0–02,' remained free from contamination by the source essence—before the supplementary clause was introduced, Byers was an integral part of Berdán and thus could not be damaged in any way, rendering him immune to contamination; after the supplementary clause came into effect, his prior actions were no longer subject to retrospective accountability. In fact, after leaving the municipal library, Byers violated the curfew, but Kline had already noticed an issue: Belland citizens often pursued outsiders without being bound by the curfew. Therefore, he had Byers adopt an aggressive stance toward him, thereby avoiding the corresponding penalties. Subsequently, seizing the opportunity presented by the "0–02" repair, Kline quickly recalled the detailed information about the "Trenzostor Bronze Book": "...the book possesses a living quality, though it typically operates at a low level most of the time. ...its first half contains nearly all the major foundational rules, while the second half remains blank and requires manual completion. ...once freed from constraints, it naturally establishes and rigorously enforces laws tailored to its immediate surroundings, continuously adjusting and refining them based on feedback and emerging issues." "...as the laws grow more refined, His living nature deepens... until a comprehensive, highly detailed law capable of intervening across all aspects takes shape, the 'Trengsost Copper Book' will fully come to life, attaining genuine wisdom and gaining the ability to modify certain foundational rules in the first half to a certain extent... the specific extent achievable is as follows... "...if contradictions arise among the legal provisions that cannot be resolved, or if the pages are fully filled yet a sufficiently robust legal framework has not been established, the 'Trengsost Copper Book' will, one hour later, at the junction between the first and second halves, insert a new clause stating: 'The following rules are hereby invalid.' " "As this clause takes shape, the subsequent rules will gradually fade, returning the pages to blankness... Once the latter half is entirely blank, the clause stating 'the following rules are invalid' will be erased, and the 'Trenzost Copper Book' will resume its prior behavior until a comprehensive, well-structured legal framework emerges that influences all aspects... The rules it establishes must be publicly announced or made known to take effect... When an action lacks a specific statutory provision, does it constitute a violation if it aligns with the common understanding of the surrounding beings?... The 'Trenzost Copper Book' dislikes distorted, unattractive rules and deeply resents having its loopholes sought out." Such a detailed description... There must be an implicit method of sealing the '0–02' here. Klein's thoughts raced, striving to extract usable information from each sentence. At that very moment, the night spoke softly to the head of the penitents, Arianna: "Find a way to fill the pages following '0—02' with the statutes, though not tightly sealed." Indeed! Thus, the "Trenzostor Bronze Book" would declare those rules invalid and begin anew—temporarily lifting its restrictions around it, giving us the chance to touch it, carry it away, or even pray directly to the gods... But how could this be accomplished? The "Trenzostor Bronze Book" detests twisted, unattractive rules and resents being scrutinized for flaws. A spark of inspiration struck Caine's mind. Without hesitation, he extended his hands forward, as if embracing the air. The next instant, within the city library of Beldan, whose total floor area had shrunk to one-tenth of its original size, a grand hall—lined with deep black stone and adorned with countless slash marks—materialized into reality. The hall stands with eight black stone pillars, and from the lofty dome hang one after another metal cylindrical rods—each ending in a candlestand carved into the form of a different creature, forty on the left and forty-one on the right. This was the council hall of the Tudor–Trenskorst United Empire that Caine had once seen; at that time, both chief magistrates were still Sequence-1 "Slaying-Sequence Princes" of the "Black Emperor" lineage, so the hall was filled with distorted, atypical, and utterly unesthetic rules. In addition, when Caine summoned this historical scene, he employed the domain's ability to incorporate numerous Fourth Age details he himself had mastered, enriching and solidifying the order rooted in the "Black Emperor," making it tangible and real. Plink! His hands severed simultaneously at the wrists, landing on the ground, with blood gushing forth—just as any ordinary person would. This was Caine's second instance of fraud! After the two palms and the gushing blood fell to the ground, they rapidly dissolved into a series of translucent, writhing worms and a slightly viscous, nearly intangible liquid. As these "spirit worms" twitched and died, Caine contorted in pain, simultaneously seeing numerous worms crawl out from the severed edges and gather to form new palms. At the same time, he worked hard to maintain the scene he had built through repeated summonings, preventing it from dissipating entirely. On the rectangular table, within the book bound in bronze pages, a surge of new provisions emerged: “…all buildings and arrangements must adhere to the golden ratio and symmetrical beauty…” “…unauthorized attire is strictly prohibited…” “…the following offenses shall be punishable by death…” “…” The "Trenzostor Bronze Book" rustled and turned, intermittently revising the orders originating from the "Black Emperor," one after another, with the pace of new provisions accelerating progressively—until, by the end, the intervals between entries no longer exceeded a few seconds or even a few tens of seconds. At that moment, the "Tronsthorpe Bronze Book" had turned itself to the final two pages and lay open there, motionless. Seeing that the last page was filled with statutes and could not form a coherent system with the earlier rules established before "0–02," Caine silently exhaled, relaxed slightly, and sensed that his spiritual energy was nearly depleted. "Let's go to the Byers' and wait for one hour," he turned to Arianna. If they stayed put, they would face increasingly severe penalties for repeatedly violating the curfew, eventually risking execution. As for monitoring the "Tronsthorpe Bronze Book" without any mishaps—the task was clearly entrusted to Arodes. Though this magical mirror could not directly observe "0–02," it could monitor the bulletin boards, using the disappearance of the edicts as an indicator of developments.
