Chapter 24 - Luovizt

Kate woke up feeling tired from her restless night, but as she opened her eyes, she saw the little Hill Myna bird chirping away in its box. She carefully checked on it and made sure it was fine before giving it some food. As she fed the bird, she couldn't help but be enchanted by its adorable little voice.

Feeling a little more awake, Kate got dressed and prepared for another day at Eden. As she headed out, she grabbed the box with the bird inside, making sure it was comfortable for the ride.

As she arrived at Eden, she noticed that the fridge was stocked with bottles of Longan juice. She had never tried it before, but decided to give it a go. As she took a sip, she was surprised by how sweet and delicious it was, and made a mental note to drink it again in the future.

After finishing her breakfast, Kate got to work, tending to the animals in need. Throughout the day, she couldn't help but think about the little bird in the box and how cute it was. She made sure to check on it whenever she had a free moment, making sure it was comfortable and well-fed.

As the day went on, Kate found herself becoming more and more attached to the little Hill Myna bird, and couldn't wait to take care of it again the next day.

As Pond and Pim were setting up the shop, they talked about their recent journey in Xylo Chronicle. Pim was kneading the dough for the bread while Pond was putting the freshly baked loaves in the display. "We need to find someone who can give us more information about this golden coin and the identity's message," Pond said. "The Velsharoon royal academy might have a professor who can help us out."

Pim blushed as Pond started massaging her back under her apron. "Pond, stop it!" she giggled, trying to concentrate on the dough. "I need to focus on the bread."

"But Pim, you told me that the bread will be more delicious if we knead it well," Pond teased, continuing to rub her back. "So, you must be very delicious now as I knead you well." He kissed her neck and rubbed his hands up her soft legs, causing her baking dress to roll up around her waist. He softly bit her ear, making her body shake.

"Stop it, Pond," Pim said, trying to hide her smile. "We need to finish this bread."

"Alright, alright," Pond relented. "But can I come in and help you with the bread?" He placed his hands on her tiny waist and gently pushed her to the side, taking over the dough.

As they continued working, Pond couldn't resist sneaking in a few more touches and kisses on Pim's neck. "You know, Pim," he whispered, "if we work together like this, we could make something even more delicious than bread." Pim blushed again, but couldn't help but smile at Pond's playful teasing.

After closing the bakery and logging back into the game, Pond shared his plan with the rest of the party. "We need to find out more about this golden coin and the message from the golden identity. I think the Velsharoon royal academy is our best bet," he explained. The others nodded in agreement, eager to uncover the secrets of Xylo Chronicle.

As they approached the Velsharoon royal academy, the grandeur of its magical architecture was visible from afar. The spires of the academy towered over the surrounding buildings, and the sound of spells being cast could be heard even from outside. Kate couldn't help but feel a sense of awe at the sight. "This place is amazing," she exclaimed. "I wonder what kind of knowledge they have here."

Pim chimed in, "I heard that the academy is run by a council of high-ranking mages. It's said that they have access to some of the most powerful magic in Xylo." Palm added, "I hope we don't get into any trouble. I heard they're very strict about who they let in."

As they approached the entrance of the Velsharoon royal academy, the party couldn't help but be amazed by the magical architecture of the building. The academy was made of white marble and had tall towers that reached up into the sky. The entrance was grand, with a set of double doors made of gold and inlaid with precious gems.

Once inside, they found themselves in a large courtyard with fountains and statues of famous mages from the past. The courtyard was bustling with activity, with students rushing from one class to another. They could hear the sounds of spells being cast and incantations being chanted from all around them.

As they approached the guard at the entrance of the academy, he asked them who they were looking for. "We're looking for a professor who has knowledge of The Old God and The New Order's history," Pond replied. The guard thought for a moment and then suggested that Professor Luovizt might be the one they were looking for.

"He's not at the academy at the moment, but you might find him at the Velsharoon sacred library," the guard said. "It's the biggest library on the Xylandria continent. You just have to look for an old man wearing a colorful cloak with the sunflower emblem on it."

"Thank you for your help," Pond said, and the party made their way towards the library, excited to find Professor Luovizt and uncover the secrets of the golden coin and the golden identity's words.

Excited to find Professor Luovizt, the party made their way to the Velsharoon sacred library. As they walked, they marveled at the sheer size of the library, with row after row of towering bookshelves that seemed to stretch up into the heavens. "This place is massive!" Pim exclaimed in awe.

The atmosphere inside the library was one of hushed reverence, with the occasional sound of pages turning or a scholar's quill scratching across parchment breaking the silence. As they navigated through the labyrinthine stacks, Pond couldn't help but quip, "If we get lost in here, we might never find our way out."

As they searched for Professor Luovizt, they continued to joke and speculate about where he might be. "Maybe he's hiding in a secret room behind a bookcase," Kate suggested with a grin. "Or maybe he's disguised as one of the statues in the reading room," Palm added with a chuckle.

The party couldn't help but feel a sense of awe as they explored the vast expanse of the Velsharoon sacred library. The ceilings were painted with intricate murals depicting scenes from ancient myths and legends, while the floors were made of gleaming marble that shone like glass in the dim light.

As they continued their search, they stumbled upon a small alcove tucked away in a far corner of the library. And there, sitting at a small table surrounded by stacks of books, was Professor Luovizt himself. "Well, that was easy," Pim remarked with a grin.

As they approached the table, Professor Luovizt looked up from his book and regarded them with a curious expression. "What brings you to my corner of the library?" he asked in a gravelly voice. The party exchanged a nervous glance before Pond stepped forward to explain their quest.

As the party approached the table, Professor Luovizt looked up from his book and regarded them with a curious expression. "What brings you to my corner of the library?" he asked in a gravelly voice. The party exchanged a nervous glance before Pond stepped forward to explain their quest. "We're on a mission to uncover the secrets of the Old God and the New Order. We've heard that you might be able to help us," Pond explained.

Professor Luovizt's eyes widened as he listened to Pond's words. "Ah, the Old God and the New Order," he said, stroking his long beard. "A fascinating topic, to be sure. But what makes you think I can help you?"

Pond took out the golden coin and showed it to the professor. "We found this coin with strange patterns engraved on it, and it came with a message from a golden identity. It said, 'The Old God reunited, The Supreme reborn.' We don't know what it means, but we think it has something to do with the Old God and the New Order."

Professor Luovizt took the coin from Pond's hand and examined it closely. His eyes widened as he read the message. "This is no ordinary coin," he said, his voice shaking with excitement. "It's a symbol of great power and importance. And the message...it's a prophecy! A prophecy about the return of the Old God and the rise of a new Supreme Being!"

The party gasped in amazement as Professor Luovizt continued to explain. "I must show this to my colleagues at the academy. We must study this prophecy further and unlock its secrets. Please, follow me back to my room at the Velsharoon royal academy. We can continue our discussion there."

As they followed Professor Luovizt through the labyrinthine corridors of the library, the party couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation. They had stumbled upon something much bigger than they had anticipated, and the thought of uncovering the secrets of the Old God and the New Order was thrilling.

Along the way, they cracked a few jokes to lighten the mood. "I hope Professor Luovizt's room isn't as dusty as this library," Palm quipped. "Otherwise, we might never find him!" Anastasia laughed, "Or maybe he's just trying to lure us into a trap with promises of ancient secrets and forbidden knowledge."

Suddenly they found themselves walking through secret underground passage that connects the Velsharoon sacred library and the Velsharoon royal academy, A narrow tunnel made of stone and lined with torches. It winds its way beneath the streets of Velsharoon City and is only accessible by a hidden entrance located in the back of the library's archives.

As they finally arrived at Professor Luovizt's room, the party couldn't help but feel a sense of awe. The room was filled with books and scrolls, all neatly organized on shelves that stretched from floor to ceiling. Professor Luovizt gestured for them to take a seat, and the party settled in for what promised to be a fascinating discussion.

Pond took out the golden coin once more, and the party leaned in as Professor Luovizt began to unravel the mystery of the prophecy. As they talked and debated, they couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and wonder. They had stumbled upon something much bigger than themselves, and they were determined to see it through to the end.
