'Finally, something to read after so long!'
Looking back at his first 'True Reading' experience, Leo couldn't help spotting more and more contrast with his current one. Back then, he was so overjoyed about how his craving for books had calmed down that he didn't touch one until two weeks later. Now, however, he rejoiced at receiving one even though a week had barely passed.
The contrast was simply too ironic. Somehow, Leo's first shot at relaxation had been under the countdown to his 'death'. Meanwhile, the excitement he missed back on Earth started with being held 'captive' underground, forced to do nothing but training.
'Pretty detailed…'
Even as his mind wandered back and forth, the pages didn't stop flipping. As someone who had already read about Spearmanship, he could tell that the book was a great introduction to the topic.
