Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?-Novel

Chapter 571 Arwen

"You’re back already? Have you reconsidered letting Attie be my grandkid?" Li Jian raised his eyebrow.

"No, I’m here for another matter."

"Oh... What is the matter then?" Li Jian sighed.

"Am I allowed to use the library? I know that Lil’ Tian said that the library was limited since there was access to martial arts." Shiro asked.

"Sure you can use it." Li Jian waved his hand nonchalantly as Shiro couldn’t help but smile softly.

In her eyes, it looked as though the sect master was pulling a tantrum because he couldn’t be Attie’s grandfather.

*Sigh

"Do you want to look after Attie while I’m in the library then? I’m going to be doing quite a bit of research so Attie might be bored." Shiro sighed.

"Really?" Li Jian perked up with a smile as Shiro nodded.

"Yes, just don’t expose him to blood and killing. Nothing s.e.x.u.a.l, make sure it’s PG and I swear to god if I see an injury on his body when I come back I’m going to rip the one who did it a new one. And if you don’t understand, it means I’ll give them a brand new a**hole." Shiro warned.

"Of course. But young lady, you really have got to be careful of cussing in front of children. They’ll grow up with bad habits you know?" Li Jian grinned as he reached out for Attie.

"Before that, Estrella!" Shiro called out.

Suddenly, a portal opened up besides them as Estrella stepped out.

"You called, my Empress?"

"Look after Attie with the old man over here and make sure he doesn’t get hurt."

"Understood." Estrella nodded as Shiro finally handed Attie over to Li Jian.

"Be good ok? Mommy’s going to go do some boring research so you’ll be staying with this strange old man ok?" Shiro smiled as Li Jian’s smile twitched.

Nodding his head, Attie pouted slightly before giving Shiro a hug and climbed over to Li Jian.

"Make sure he doesn’t try to force himself to be Attie’s grandpa." Shiro turned to Estrella.

"Noted."

"Take this. You’ll need it to access the Library." Li Jian said as he threw her a key card of sorts.

"Thanks." Shiro nodded.

Waving at Attie once more, Shiro started to make her way towards the library.

Watching Shiro leave, Li Jian was about to say something to Attie when Estrella’s head snapped towards him.

"Woah there, calm. No need to be that on guard. I was just going to ask him about what he wanted to do." Li Jian explained as Estrella relaxed.

"Damn, so stingy." He shook his head.

###

Arriving at the library, Shiro tilted her head back and looked at the giant get of reinforced doors. Hundreds upon hundreds of defensive formations and attack formations could be seen etched onto the material.

Activating her analysis skill, she could see a few hidden formations too.

’Even if I was recovered, I think I might have a hard time breaking through this place.’ She thought to herself since each formation was linked together with meticulous planning.

Understanding that the sect had many hidden experts, a formation expert was to be expected.

Looking around for a spot to scan the key card that Li Jian had given her, Shiro saw the panel to her left. Swiping the key card, she could see a few of the formation shift as the doors began to open.

Glancing past the reinforced doors, she could see row upon rows of books that were currently being cleaned by a tall figure.

Besides the shelves were computer terminals which wasn’t a surprising sight for her since she saw the library in Miriel.

"Oh? A visitor. What brings you to this place?" The figure called out without turning around.

"I’m just looking for some information. Are you able to tell me where I can read about class ups and class up requirements?" Shiro asked politely since this figure seemed to be the librarian.

For some strange reason however, she couldn’t pick up on his appearance properly as everything was shadowed out. From his voice however, she could at least tell that he was a male.

"Class ups you say? Quite a particular topic. One that not many would search for unless they’re either stuck in theirs or are struggling to complete them. What would yours be?" He asked with interest in his voice.

"I suppose I’ll be in the second category." Shiro replied patiently.

"The second category huh? I see... There aren’t any physical copies of any information that you may require but the computer terminals may contain them." The figure pointed towards the computers before going back to cleaning the shelves.

Raising her eyebrow, Shiro nodded before walking over to the terminals.

Turning one of them on, she could see a search bar for the topics that she wanted to find. Typing in Class up, a giant list of entries appeared on the screen.

’Oh god this is going to take a while.’ She signed internally as she began to read through every single entry.

Hopefully, she’ll be able to get more clues as her current class up objectives were:

[5/1] Tier 5 Attunements

[0/1] Tier 5 Awakening Type Material

[0/1] Tier 5 Catalyst

[0/5] Tier 5 Class Relevant Materials

[3/1] Tier 5 Grade Achievement

[1] Tier 6 Grade Achievement

However, while this was helpful, there was also the problem of her chosen class being one that she has to make herself. This means that even if she completed these requirements, there were no promises of class ups.

’Perhaps I’ll be able to find out some research on why we experience class ups.’

###

After going through countless records, Shiro’s body began to feel stiff as she had sat down for a long time.

"Care for a drink young lady? You’ve been looking at the computer for a long time. Have you not found what you need?" A voice asked as the shrouded figure appeared besides her.

Despite him being this close, Shiro still could not see his true form but she wasn’t bothered.

"Sure. Unfortunately, my situation’s a little special so I need to look for something quite specific." Shiro smiled wearily.

"Oh? Perhaps I can be of assistance." The figure replied as Shiro could tell that he was smiling.

"Tell me the nature of your situation so that I may find the correct entry."

"It’s along the lines of how would one class up when their class up option is not a guarantee. You see, I’ve chosen a rather peculiar class where I must find my own way. So I need to figure out how I can trigger the class up." Shiro explained.

If the man could help her then it would be great.

"Hmm... That is indeed quite rare. Out of all the entries, only two of them match your situation. The Norman incident 22 years ago in Britain match this description along with the researcher known as Zesli. She spends a lot of time researching class ups and their hidden workings. Perhaps if you were to meet her, you’ll be able to find out the information you need." The figure replied while placing down a cup juice for Shiro.

"Ah thank you. I haven’t asked yet but who are you?" Shiro asked.

"Me? I’m just a librarian who decided to forsake my past. Though if you needed a name, I suppose Arwen would do." Arwen replied with a soft chuckle.

"I see, Arwen... Ok. Is there anything I can give you to repay you for this help?"

"Repay me? There’s no need. You would have found this information out eventually." Arwen shook his head.

"But time is money and you’ve helped me save time. Therefore, I need to repay you." Shiro smiled.

Hearing this, Arwen paused for a moment before nodding his head.

"In that case then bring me stories or information of which haven’t been recorded in this library. Staying here and reading everything becomes rather dull with time."

"Oh is that all?" Shiro asked just to make sure. After all, she had hundreds of stories from Aria.

"You underestimate the vastness of knowledge held in this library young lady but yes, that is all that I desire." Arwen laughed.

"Ok, give me a few days for my body to recover. Once I’ve recovered, I’ll be able to bring you the information you want." Shiro smiled. After all, she wanted to make sure that her body was in good condition before using her nanobots.

Seeing honesty in her eyes, Arwen was rather surprised and nodded his head.

"Then I look forward to your recovery."
