Closed meeting

I quickly closed the book and looked around to see if anyone saw us. I said to Mohammed, "Mohammed, climb up quickly." We climbed up to the palace trembling. We entered the palace and sat on the tattered bed. I closed the door and said to him, "First, before opening this book, I want two things from you: Promise me that you will keep all the events that will happen from now on, between us only".

He said, "Alright, but why are you saying this?" I replied, "I feel like this book will bring a lot of troubles with it. Its appearance does not bode well."

The second thing is that I heard you mention Karaman and something like a hidden treasure. What do you mean?" Mohammed replied, "I think I have figured out the origin of this book after connecting the dots.

Mr. Karaman, and what do you know about Mr. Karaman? He is a beggar, not like any other beggars. He is a man with long white hair, wearing old clothes, living alone in a hut. He is not mentally disturbed, but he does not care about this world.

His only concern is his books and theories. If he had the resources, he would have tried all the correct and incorrect chemical reactions. He keeps repeating phrases that are well-known to the residents of the neighborhood, morning and evening.

I remember some of them: (Traveling through the universes - Martin's secret - Martin's disappearance - God's punishment - Forbidden chemistry). I used to sit with him sometimes, and he would tell stories with no head or tail. When I was about to travel here, I went to bid him farewell because I don't know what fate holds, and he said It is possible to find Hemaro's treasure in Japan.

When I asked what Hemaro's treasure is, he said it is a book that came from a parallel universe through Hemaro.

At first, I thought it was just another fantasy, so I replied casually without much interest. However, it turned out to be true, and I felt that this book could change many things in my life.

I sat with Mohamed and said, "I believe that it holds secrets greater than those of nations, and its key is Mr. Karmen. It could either improve our lives or be our undoing.

" Mohamed remained silent, and I couldn't tell if he was listening or lost in another world.

Mohamed finally spoke, saying, "Now that we know the truth about this book, it means we are the ones responsible for it. Every simple action could alter the course of the universe if Mr. Karmen's fantasies are true." His words struck me as true, and I couldn't help but feel torn. The book was now in our hands, and if we left it, others might find it and misuse it. Honestly, I was fed up with this mundane life and felt that this extraordinary book would finally give me purpose. Mohamed concluded, "It all depends on the validity of Mr. Karmen's fantasies.

To determine that, we need to meet Karmen himself.

Let's carefully consider the significance of this step that will connect us to Mr. Karmen."

Indeed, we were in a small cabin, approximately 16 meters above the ground, but it felt like we were in a meeting deciding the fate of humanity. Each of us was calculating the butterfly effect of our actions.

Mohamed agreed that we needed Mr. Karmen, but I disagreed about bringing him here. I believe we should travel to meet him. In case things take an unexpected turn, we can leave everything behind there and return to our respective lives. Moreover, we must ensure the secrecy of our hideout, which is this palace.
