Chapter 46 - Forbidden Library

{Wake up! Wake up!!! WAKE UP!!!}

'Huh..?'

{You're finally awake... Took you long enough!}

'Oh, sorry... Thanks for waking me up. Anyway, what was that..? I had a weird dream... Was it even a dream..?' Rem wondered, confused.

{You're going to be late.}

"Oh, right! Forget about that weird dream I had. I'll worry about that later... Right, now, I better get ready!!!' Rem rushed to get ready for school, not wanting to look at the time.

After getting ready and giving a few jerkies to Roy, Rem ran towards her homeroom. Thankfully, she wasn't late. Rem barely made it this time.

'That was way too close...' Rem thought as she sighed, walking towards her seat.

"Good morning, Remie!" Karina greeted loudly.

"Morning." Rem greeted back.

"Almost late again, huh?" Karina giggled.

Rem remained silent as she sat next to Karina. After a few minutes, Karina managed to calm down.

"By the way... Do you know about the forbidden library?" Karina suddenly asked, changing the topic.

"A forbidden library? What do you mean..?" Rem asked curiously.

"Apparently, there's a library on the top floor of this school. Nobody is allowed to go near it." Karina said.

"Oh..."

'Interesting... Should I go there..? I'll sneak in the forbidden library at midnight when everyone is probably asleep. This school must be hiding something! Maybe I can find some more information.' Rem thought.

"Don't even think about trying to enter the forbidden library, okay? The principal is very strict about it. You'll get in trouble!" Karina said.

Karina had a feeling that Rem wanted to go to the forbidden library and wondered if she made a mistake telling Rem about it.

"Anyway, let's get going now. We still have class." Karina said, walking to her next class.

"Okay, okay." Rem followed Karina while trying to think of the perfect plan on how to sneak inside the forbidden library.

Rem, Karina, and the twins spent the whole day together since they all had the same classes. After school, Karina went back to her dorm room while the twins decided to stay a while longer to help their teacher. Rem tried to get a higher rank in the arena before it closed. After disguising herself, she rushed to the arena, wanting to get ranked in the top 10 my today. Unfortunately, Rem is currently ranked 30th. She only challenged the ranked 90th person, ranked 80th person, ranked 70th person, ranked 60th person, ranked 50th person, ranked 40th person, and the ranked 30th person because Rem had 2 people who challenged her but, of course, Rem won all of them anyway. Rem began to realize that after ranked 50th, people there all had levels 50 and above. So far, all the duels were fairly easy for Rem. Barely anyone would do a death duel. Rem never encountered someone who wanted a death duel. When there's a death duel, more people would bet and use more money than usual because death duels are exciting and entertaining for the audience to watch, according to many of them. It was 8 P.M. and the arena was officially closed for the day. Rem went back to her dorm, gave Roy some jerkies, and began browsing the shop.

'Come to think of it... I only wear the school uniform and the clothes I bought after I was reborn. Still... Looking at myself is weird... I'm not used to it yet.' Rem thought as she looked at herself in the mirror, getting rid of all her disguises.

Rem decided to activate her transformation and eye of truth skill all the time, without deactivating it. Her transformation skill barely costs her any MP and her eye of truth skill doesn't cost anything anyway.

'Since the last time I saw myself, I'm pretty sure I grew an inch... I think my hair length also grew a little. I still have the same black hair, red eyes, face, and figure. Nothing really changed except for my hair length and height which only changed slightly. Looking at myself with a pair of wolf ears and two foxtails are a little weird..! They can move!!!' Rem thought, impressed.

'It's also so fluffy... My ears and tail are both the color of clean snow, with a few black stripes on them. I'm fine with this form but half-humans aren't really welcomed by the humans. They let them in but they still don't get along with each other. This world really is just like my past world. Race and gender discrimination still exists even here...' Rem sighed.

'I should probably get a new outfit that's suitable for me. It's winter so I need something warm to wear. Now which one fits me..?' Rem asked herself, taking her time trying to find the perfect outfit.

•••

After spending about 3 hours trying to find the perfect outfit for Rem, Rem finally found the perfect outfit for her.

[An outfit with Black Clothes, Black Cloak, Black Mask, and Black Combat Gloves]

[Cost: 15,000]

[Do You Want To Buy The 'Black Outfit?]

[Yes/No]

Rem bought, activated her disguise skill, then wore her new clothes and looked at herself in the mirror again.

'Looks decent. I like this new look.' Rem thought as she was looking at herself in the mirror.

She was wearing a sweater with zippers, pockets, and soft fur inside. On the inside, she wore a black t-shirt. Rem doesn't like tight clothes because it would be hard to move in so she always wore sweatpants. She chose to wear a mask so she can hide her face, even if she was disguised. Rem would always have combat gloves on, just in case she had to fight her enemies with her bare hands. She wore regular, plain socks and sneakers as usual. Of course, everything she was wearing was black. Rem wanted to wear black clothing because this way, she can camouflage in the dark better. Plus, black was one of Rem's favorite color.

'This should be fine. My fashion sense is kind of plain... But whatever. This is comfortable for me so it's fine. It's almost midnight. I should probably go now.' Rem thought, jumping off from her window after putting on her black cloak.
