As we divided into smaller groups, we began looking for the Ayla magic book. Since the librarian forbade conversation in this space, we spoke to one another on the phone. We were solely using the vibrate feature on our phones. I only heard a book page flipping as I was searching the book. In the library, it is incredibly silent.
Hmmm... Where is it? *I move slowly forward as I search for the book.
Hm? *I've noticed that one of the books is a different hue than the other. Despite appearing to be damaged, the book was still positioned on the rack. Squirrel brown was the color of the books.
What is this? *I pick up the damaged book and use my left hand to continue holding the phone. I then turn to the book's cover.
"Leviathan Summoner" was the name of the book. The middle of the front book has the word written in a large, strong font. The adjective was black.
I read the book title.
Do you know this book?
System: "Hmmm... I remember this book was back years ago. Probably around 500 years old or more."
Hmmm... Wait, what is my current year now?
System: "It's the same as your world, 2023."
Ah... But why this book looks damaged? *I try to glance at the page and the handwriting as I open the book. It appears quite dated, with handwriting that is difficult to read but has a soothing appearance. Additionally, the inside book paper has been harmed. The hue shifted to a shade of almost brown with a torn edge on each page.
System: "This is part of the summoner book, and it can be learned by everyone since this type of book was not specified by the class. But, according to my data, there's none or a single person could learn the book."
System: "Even though if someone manages to learn it, the cost of summoning it is not a joke."
I see... *Flipped the page.
Maybe I should read this later. I need to help Ayla first. *I put the book back on the rack after closing it. I'll then proceed to move slowly because I'm still carrying my phone.
*Brt. *In the next millisecond, my phone vibrated.
Hm? *Someone is sending me a text message as I unlock my phone.
✓✓ I found it! ~Aria *She also includes a photo of the book. The book has the appearance of a typical book. Antique white was the hue of the books. "Common Healer Magic" was the name of the book. The middle of the front book has the word written in a large, strong font. The adjective was black.
In addition to sharing her present location, Aria sends one selfie. She is clutching the book while standing in the center of the book rack. She smiled and turned the book's title toward the camera.
We soon came across one another and looked at the book she had discovered. According to the placard at the top of the shelf, the book was in the healer section. Ayla picked up the book and began to page through it. She was examining the contents page.
✓✓ This is what I needed! Thanks, Aria. ~Ayla
✓✓ No problem. :P ~Aria
✓✓ Let's find an empty table quickly. So we could get done with this and go to the dungeon immediately. ~Myra
We then walk together and try to find an empty chair.
✓✓ Ummm... About the dungeon... Why we should go right away after this?
Ayla messages me in private chat all of a sudden. Not when we are still on the go and in the group conversation.
Hm? Ayla? *I read the message as soon as I open it.
Hmmm... Let's say we were forced to level up by some new teacher this day. ✓✓
✓✓ Ah... I see...
✓✓ Then I should tell my mom first about this.
Okay. ✓✓
We discovered a vacant chair. Since there is nothing on the table, nobody appears to be sitting at it. So we made the decision to sit there.
As we sit here, Ayla continues to read the book. She went page by page through it.
Hmmm... This is boring... What should I do? *As I did nothing but wait after a moment.
After waiting a moment, Myra was finding a book. She also seemed to be growing bored. After that, come back here and read the book. "Origin of the Elf" was the title. Color and type were both the same term. The title words appear to be all the same. The cover of the book was green and included a plant motif.
*I was reading the title she held.
Ah... I forget that she was an elf...
Hmmm... How could an elf in this world exist?
System: "It's just how this world has been made. In this world, there is human, elf, and half-human. They all exist from the beginning. But some believe every part of them has their own history and how they were born in this world."
I see...
