The collection was vast but not quite the treasure trove he'd hoped for; perhaps the most valuable books were hidden elsewhere.
After dinner, instead of returning to his room, Damian headed toward the Spellborne Legion section. He didn't have to go far, as Lucian was already on her way to meet him. They crossed paths and made their way to one of the rooms Damian had been assigned for his "challenge."
Unlike the Highsword guards and academy staff, his friends weren't as enthusiastic about the challenge he'd devised. The second rankers guards and even some cleaning staff people kept telling him it was a fair way to determine the worthy squire and complied with his requests promptly. Damian felt a twinge of guilt over the dungeon guarding challenge being a sham, though it didn't change his black heart much.
