Seraphina led a grand procession back to the Arcane Village base with the group in tow.
In the past, Andreas and his companions would have descended upon the Arcane Village base like gods from the heavens.
But now, they wouldn't dare.
No matter what Seraphina said, they insisted on carrying the books through the city gates, claiming that doing so was a sign of respect for the place.
"Suit yourselves!" Seraphina couldn't be bothered with them anymore and headed back to the school.
William was in his office working on the second volume when Seraphina returned. "Did you get the books?" he asked.
Seraphina grimaced, "I had Andreas and his team bring them over. They're at the base now."
William looked up at Seraphina, smiled briefly, and didn't say much else.
These were trivial matters to him.
"Mr. Johnson, they really went all out, copying fifty thousand books," Seraphina said enthusiastically.
