"The book on married life...no."
"The story of a gentleman…. "Fuck this"
"Dark Hope Novel... What?"
....
As the signs of exhaustion overwhelmed Amazaki from excessive distress, he felt extremely frustrated
He did not find on the first or second floor any book that even talked about the existence of other races... If those two from the market had not talked about half-beasts, he would have lost hope of completing the research completely.
"Shit… I still have ten floors to go…*sigh*"
He then headed to the third floor to spot a beautiful-looking boy with long, golden-yellow hair and blue eyes, wearing green clothes almost similar to the clothes of the girl who was on the first floor. It seemed that that outfit was an official uniform for some purpose... while that boy was sitting in his chair with visible signs of boredom. On his face he suddenly noticed Amazaki and came towards him
After seeing him, Amazaki went to the stairs on the fourth floor while saying to himself:
"I hate these types of people...they always stick their noses into things that don't concern them."
While he was trying to climb the stairs to the fourth floor, he heard someone calling him from behind
"Ah... wait, brother, you look lost. Do you need help with something?"
Amazaki said while sighing to himself
"I knew this bastard would talk to me...no...wait...I might use him."
Amazaki slowly turned to him and said with a peaceful smile on his face
"Actually, yes...I know where I can find a book that talks about the history of the founding of this kingdom or some information about other races."
The boy replied with a childish face
"I think that book… hey hahaha where are my manners I didn't even introduce myself"
"Ahm… My name is Kyle Rockzard, and I am the second son of the famous Rockzard family, which is also one of the five most influential families in this kingdom, and we own vast lands. We even monopolize some markets...etc."
While Amazaki's smile is calm and steady, inside he is cursing and cursing what he said
"Fuck you, you f***, I don't want to know who you are or your family. Just tell me where the book is and we will leave in front of me."
Amazaki had spent four hours examining the books on the first and second floors... and now he could barely force a smile on his face
That boy asks Amazaki a surprising question
"Could you be preparing for the military academy entrance exams?"
Amazaki replied, surprised
"Hmm?..academic??...I mean Ahhm...yeah that's what I was going to do hahaha. So can you tell me where the cat is?
Then the cat interrupted him
"It looks like you haven't registered yet..."
Amazaki replied surprised
"What?"
The boy replied
"I mean, where is your uniform? Once you register, they give you one like the one I'm wearing now."
Amazaki responded with a childish smile
"Actually, I only came to town yesterday so..."
The boy replied
"Hahaha… Okay, that's okay. I will help you with the entrance ceremony, but you need some money, so let's meet tomorrow in front of the library gate."
"No, you don't have to do all this, all I want is for you..."
"No, you do not have to thank me, because I will also take the test, and according to what I heard, the test changes every year. One time, the test was a written test, and another time it was a combat test. As you can see, I have been studying in this library for a month until I became bored, and I even met many people who will….. etc"
Amazaki is almost losing his patience, he says to himself
"Ahh... when will this chatterbox stop talking? I'm not sure how long I can control myself."
"Okay... I'll be patient, I don't have time to search the entire floors."
And that boy is still talking
"...And that girl on the first floor is taking the entrance exam too, I think...
I tried to talk to her, but she said that I was annoying and rude because I stuck my nose into things that did not concern me. She believed this even though I was trying to help her."
Amazaki said in a low voice
"Well I think I agree with her on that one."
The boy responded as if he did not hear what he said
"What?"
Amazalki said annoyed while his hand was trembling with anger
"You said… quickly tell me where the book is."
The boy replied as if he had forgotten what Amazaki asked
"Ahhh... the book... I think you will find it on the tenth floor in the ninth hallway to the right."
"Finally"
Then Amazaki started walking up the stairs, ignoring the boy
"Wait, wait... you haven't told me your name yet."
But Amazaki did not pay attention to him and continued on his way
The boy said to himself while a malicious smile appeared on his face
"This guy is really interesting...I feel like we'll become good friends..."
As Amazaki climbed the stairs, his face became cold, devoid of any feelings to say to himself
His name is Kyle Rockzard... right... although he looks childish, he hides a malicious nature... Hump... as long as he doesn't get in my way, who cares?"
"And the academy he talked about... I may visit it later."
He continued on his way, while on each floor he ascended, he noticed that the number of books had become less and less until he reached the tenth floor to find only some shelves containing a few books.
While he was searching among the books, he found the book he wanted in the exact place that the boy told him
"Hmm…finally"
So he took a chair and sat reading the book
After half an hour had passed, Amazaki became very frustrated and said
"Damn, I knew this."
He had read that all races were under the burden of war among themselves
"*sigh* I really wanted to see the ghost girls- I mean all the half-monsters.. and now even if I go to them they will attack me."
"Why would humans start a war with them? Why..ah."
An evil smile appeared on his face and he said
"At least humans signed a peace treaty with the jinn, otherwise they would have become extinct already."
"So I will be able to see them...but why didn't I see any of them here?"
