"Are you a recorder?"

"How long have you been part of the Void Cult?"

"How many times have you evolved, and in what direction?"

Lex heard this woman, who looked as weak as a little chick, and began questioning her.

"I haven’t joined the Void Cult yet…"

Feeling Lex’s intimidating presence, Sarah spoke softly.

"Then how did you become a recorder, and get a temple?"

Lex was stunned upon hearing that and asked in confusion.

"Forget it, I’ll explain."

"Miss Sarah was personally brought back by Miss Sonia. She really is an ordinary person."

"But she is the recorder, and she lives in the Records Temple."

"And stop being so domineering. You’re scaring her."

Seeing Miss Sarah too frightened to say much under Lex’s presence, Kyle could not stand by any longer and spoke up.

"Brought back by Miss Sonia?"

"Then what about this woman? Was she brought back by Miss Sonia too?"

Hearing Kyle’s words, Lex’s expression changed, and the sharpness in his eyes softened considerably as he asked.

"No. Miss Lalatina was brought back by Tony Stark. She is Tony Stark’s secretary."

Seeing Lex’s expression ease and his terrifying presence withdraw somewhat, Kyle explained.

"Tony Stark, the inventor?"

Hearing that name from Kyle, Lex asked thoughtfully.

"That’s right."

Kyle nodded.

"So that means Tony Stark is on the island right now?"

Lex had naturally heard Tony Stark’s name before. He glanced at Lalatina, then looked back at Kyle and asked directly.

"Yes. It seems Tony Stark does not plan to return to his hometown this year. At least, he hasn’t told us that he intends to go back."

Kyle thought for a moment, then nodded again.

"Fine, let’s not talk about Tony Stark for now."

"Recorder Miss Sarah, I got your name right, didn’t I?"

Upon hearing about Tony Stark, Lex decided he would take a look later and see what kind of person Tony Stark was. Then he looked at the somewhat frightened Sarah and asked in a gentler tone.

"That’s right, Lord Lex. Hello."

Seeing Lex’s attitude take a complete turn after hearing that Sonia-senpai had brought her here, Sarah responded politely.

"Could you tell me what changes have taken place on the island over the past year?"

"And what exactly does your position as recorder involve?"

Lex’s attitude became exceedingly gentle as he asked with a smile.

"Lex, if you want to learn about the island, come with me."

"We can talk while we eat breakfast."

Having received Lex, Kyle spoke.

His main purpose in coming here had been to pick Lex up.

They had both evolved in the direction of physical strength, so they had sparred before and got along quite well.

"If those two are coming along too, then fine."

Lex glanced at Sarah and Lalatina before speaking.

"I have to come too?"

"But I still have work to do later."

When Sarah heard that they were eating breakfast together, she was a hundred times unwilling. She wanted to find an excuse to slip away.

Having met so many people on Void Island, Lex was the first person who had frightened her from the very moment they met. After interacting with him, she found his personality even more forceful.

"Miss Sarah, come along with us. With me there, you’ll be able to get to know him better."

"I’ll take you back to the Records Temple later."

Kyle could see that Miss Sarah was unwilling, but given Lex’s personality, if they did not bring Miss Sarah along, Lex clearly would not let the matter go.

"Alright."

Faced with a situation she could not refuse, Sarah could only agree.

"Then let’s drive the car back first."

It was Lalatina’s first time going to the cafeteria with someone other than Mr. Tony.

Although Lex also felt rather frightening to her, his attitude had eased considerably after learning that she was Mr. Tony’s secretary.

Soon afterward, the four of them proceeded down the road together.

"Kyle, what changes have happened on the island over the past year?"

"And tell me more about the Records Temple."

Lex strode forward in great steps. Though he was walking, he easily kept pace just behind Sarah and Lalatina’s car, walking side by side with Kyle as he asked.

"The Records Temple was built at Lord Kassadin’s instruction, though Miss Sonia was the one who brought back its staff."

"As for what the Records Temple specifically does, it keeps records."

"When you travel far away or return to Void Island from another planet, you need to let her know."

"Let her know? Her?"

Hearing Kyle’s words, Lex became even more confused.

"Lord Lex, I need to correct something here."

"You do not report to me; you merely notify me. So please do not misunderstand. It is not mandatory."

Hearing Lord Kyle’s words, which seemed to make Lord Lex think even less of her, Sarah hurriedly spoke up.

"It’s all the same."

"Lex, whenever you come to Void Island in the future or plan to leave Xandar,"

"it would be best to make time to meet Miss Sarah and inform her of your itinerary."

Kyle waved his hand and spoke directly.

"Fine."

Although Lex did not understand why Sarah, an ordinary person, was assigned this work, he agreed after considering that the Records Temple had been established under Lord Kassadin’s decree.

"As for what other changes have taken place on the island, let me think about how to explain them to you in detail."

After seeing Lex agree, Kyle began thinking seriously.

The Void Cult was still in the early stages of building its influence, so it did not yet have all kinds of positions and such.

Thus, Lex was basically always on other planets, spending at most two days on Void Island over the course of a year.

Therefore, when Lex returned, Kyle needed to explain certain information to him so they could communicate better.

He had discussed it with Renoli, Lacey, the Precognitor, and Tony.

Miss Sarah’s position as recorder should only be the beginning. More positions would surely be added in the future.

Although Miss Sarah had not joined the Void Cult yet, no one doubted that she would definitely be able to join it later.

Before long, Lex followed Sarah and Lalatina to a temple.

"Is this where you work?"

"It is clear that the great Great God of the Void Kassadin places great importance on this position."

"Miss Sarah, as an ordinary person serving as a recorder, you will likely encounter some difficulties."

"But it’s alright. If you run into any trouble in the future, you can come to me anytime."

After seeing the temple’s decor, Lex looked at Sarah and said with a smile.

Mr. Kassadin was great, and the decisions he made were correct. Nothing he did could possibly be meaningless.

Since Lord Kassadin had created this position and made the temple so imposing, Miss Sarah would surely become one of the Void Cult’s brethren in the future.

"Thank you…"

Sarah stared blankly at Lex’s approving gaze and friendly attitude. Faced with those words, she could only thank him gratefully.
