Lucian ruffled his hair as he became lost in thought, 'Right it's all to deceive the council, I don't want them knowing about my tomes, so I selected some with the same areas of effect as my original tomes,' he thought.
He reached out and picked up each of the tomes, giving them a short look through, pretending to be interested in their contents.
As he let loose a yawn, Claudia appeared towering over him, with a blank face.
"Is there something I can help you with!?" grumbled Lucian, his splitting headache was not helping his mood.
Claudia placed another book down beside him, "It's a list of tomes that the Umbar family is willing to provide you with, including the exclusive tomes of the main household,"
"Not interested," he replied without giving the book a second look, he didn't even need the tome that had been presented to him by Mercurion, it would be a complete waste of his time.
