Chapter 15 - The Collos library

On the way to the Cafeteria Caleb meets Dex again but this time with someone else

"Hello Caleb it's been almost a day since we last met, oh and this is my other friend John from the Everett family" Dex said pointing to the young man beside him

"Hello there its nice to meet you John" Caleb offers a handshake and John accepts it nicely

"Well then i'm going to the cafeteria to eat so see you later" Caleb said before walking away and going to the cafeteria

When he arrives he sees a poster at the door of the cafeteria saying that the library's construction is almost complete and after reading it he immediately goes inside and went to the counter and orders the same food he got last time

After a few minutes of waiting the chefs are already done cooking and gives the food to Caleb and he takes it joyfully and sat to a nearby empty table

He then starts eating it and in a few minutes Caleb is done so he decides to leave the cafeteria and check the construction of the library

In just a few moments of looking around he already finds the construction of the library as it's also huge and the construction vehicles are all around in some place so he easily suspects that it's where the library is being constructed

He then goes close into the construction and arriving at it he sees the library only needing a bit more part to be built and paint to be applied

"This is just too fast even for over 50 construction workers" Caleb thought seeing all the construction workers doing their job

"Could there be someone buffing them to work better and faster?" Caleb wonder about the reason they can last for so long working

But while thinking about it a worker suddenly comes towards him

"Sir you're not allowed to step close here as it's dangerous, so please don't go near and it's almost done anyway tomorrow it's gonna be completely built" The worker said so Caleb listens and left the place deciding to go back to his room

Arriving into his room, he decides to sleep for the day

The next day Caleb wakes up early to check the library and to his shock it is really done getting built but he doubts whether the inside have bookshelves and actual books that will help the people about the things about the tower

He then opens the door to the library and inside is a proper decorations and tons of bookshelves but what stood out from the bookshelves are the one at the middle

A bookshelf separated from the rest is at the middle with a sign saying "knowledge about the tower"

Placed in the bookshelf is 4 rows with all having different books in each row but the books from each row are the same but this is enough to surprise Caleb as he never thought the information that will be gathered will be so many already

"Four books? That's a lot and yet i haven't met anyone else in the tower, could the explorers leaving the tower at the middle of the night?" Caleb wonders thinking that it's the most likely thing

Caleb walks toward the bookshelf and takes a book at the top row and seeing its contents he reads a few of the contents the same as he experienced

From the skills level getting higher to the rewards you get from being the first one to defeat an elite creature but there's still somethings he didn't know

Like the fact that if multiple people helped each other at defeating an elite creature for the first one to do they will all have their rewards split for balance

"This book's contents are actually important if some people goes into the tower as a group" Caleb thought before putting the book back to its place

Caleb then looks to the lowest row and seeing the title of the book it immediately gets his attention

"The category of skills and its ranks" Caleb read

He then takes the book and open it seeing the contents of it he's surprise from the information it have

From the current 5 ranks of skills that's known to the world and the types of skills and even the elements of a skill

"This is a lot, and there's even the elements of the skills and its weakness and strength" Caleb said shocked from all the knowledge he's gaining in just a span of minutes

Soon he's done reading most of its contents and decides to go to the other bookshelves but after searching for a few minutes nothing catches his attention

So he decides to leave the library and goes to Alice's room to tell to her about the contents of the books

"Hey Alice the library is now built" Caleb said only to see a still sleeping Alice

But with the noise Caleb made Alice wakes up from it and look into Caleb with a frowned face

"It's early in the morning so why can't you not go into someone else's room and make a noise" Alice sighs as her sleepiness is gone

"Well i didn't understand what you said, so what is it about?" Alice asks curious about it

"Well the library is now built completely and the contents of the books for the knowledge about the tower is actually interesting" Caleb said nervously waiting to how will Alice react

"She will absolutely be furious for the reason she got woken up" Caleb thought

But to Caleb's surprise Alice remains calm and looking like intrigued to what the contents of the books might be

"Alright i will take a look to see if it's something worth the time you made me waste"Alice said before leaving her room and going to the library
