The Study of Space-Time Transformation

Hey there! Long time! What? I look like I lost weight? That is true. The studies I have been conducting these days have been brutal to my body. I've been working on this new study where I'm seeking a new method that'll allow you to move from one place to another at an exact time by warping the dimension of time. This is obviously not an easy task...

Don't you think it'll be great if this really pans out? If it does, then we can travel to the past and correct our mistakes. I have actually gone 80% with this study, and it had been going great... until now. I've been stuck on neutral for a while now... in order to warp the dimension of time, I'll need to use the crack of dimension at Ludibrium. Unfortunately, you and I both know that place is controlled by Papulatus.

[Nome], are you really willing to help me with this? Of course, if all goes well, I will reward you well for your work.

With your unparallelled bravery, I think you are more than capable of defeating Papulatus. Defeat Papulatus, and also take note of anything abnormal that may serve as clues to this study.

Is Papulatus too much for you? Do I have to face him myself? Oh no...

Did you get any clues from Papulatus?

Hmm... it's a key. What is it for?

Please find anything abnormal regarding the crack of dimension through Papulatus.
