Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master



As for the royal one, William was sure it was filled with mysterious scrolls and unidentified items that he wanted to see.

He knew his pass towards there was by further impressing the elders. Least to his knowledge that his wish was about to come true soon enough.

"This library has only three sections," as they arrived at the front of this library, Tara started to explain everything related to this place.

As William expected, two sections were related to high end knowledge of things known in this world. The third section was specified for things that were unknown to masters in this world.

"... There are only scrolls with unknown languages and writings there. No one really understands them, and they are left there for us to research and try to figure out what they mean…"

"I see," William paused, "I want to be sure of something… If I got lucky and figured out the content of any of these scrolls, will this be considered a high contribution or what?"

He knew he would recognise part of these scrolls at worst. After all, this content came from the outer world, a place he was familiar with everything related to it.

"For sure," Tara would take his comment before as a way to boost or show off or something. But after what he did back at the audition, she knew he meant what he just said.

"But I have to warn you, alongside our long history, no one ever managed to decipher an entire scroll. The best any did was to just get inspiration by linking the drawings on the scrolls with things we know in our world…"

"Don't worry," William knew she meant well by such a warning, "let's go towards that section first."

"As you wish," she walked inside as she was quite familiar with this place. When they arrived at the third section, they found a large building, taking the shape of an octagonal star, with a low dome in the middle.

"You and your domes," William couldn't help but sigh when he spotted that dome. This was the second time for him to see a dome on top of one building.

"They look nice, right?" Tara turned to Angelica to ask for her support. And the latter just nodded, without saying anything. In Angelica's mind, she was quite excited about what William was going to do next.

It was as if she was invited to a magic show, and the magician just boarded the stage to perform.

"It's nice but, it's weird," William said, while giving Angelica a weird look, "anyway, let's go in."

The third section was a place that was much wider than what it looked like from outside. William found himself standing in the middle of an empty place, with walls all filled with shelves and scrolls stored there.

From his spot he could see lots of dust covering almost all of the scrolls. "No one comes here anymore or what?" he couldn't help but turn to Angelica with questioning gazes. Unlike what he saw at the common library, this place was deserted.

He didn't see a single soul here. And with all this dust, he jumped to the conclusion that visiting here was quite rare, or none.

"Well… We only come here before any upgrade in our positions," Angelica seemed a bit embarrassed, "anyone wanting to jump the ranks to a higher one has to stay for an entire day here, trying to study and decipher the contents of these scrolls. However…"

"Don't tell me you come here to sleep?!" William was surprised by this, "not even interested in trying these scrolls? Understanding what they got?"

"Ahem," Tara's face turned a bit rosy out of her embarrassment, "we know it's futile anyway. Endless masters tried, and none succeeded. Why will we try then?"

"..."

William was speechless, glared at her in silence for an entire minute, making her feel quite weird. Then he shifted his eyes away, feeling that masters of this world were quite soft boned.ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novelenglish.net . Fire(.)nᴇt

They weren't even curious to check these scrolls out. William started to take a tour around, and all he could see was a thick layer of dust that covered up all the scrolls he sat eyes on.

After taking a full round, he started to pick scrolls and check them out. He just picked five scrolls at the same time, used a weakened version of a wind technique to blow dust off them.

Yet his technique expanded and covered lots of scrolls, ending up creating a bellow of dust all over the place. As the dust settled with all of them sneezing and coughing, he finally opened these five on the ground, stood by, and started to examine them.

"This… It's the Arkan tongue!!!"

The moment William saw the five scrolls, his eyes couldn't help but wide in bewilderment. He muttered softly, and yet as the place was empty, the other two girls managed to hear what he said.

"Do you recognise these symbols?!!!" Tara couldn't help but blink thrice before she gulped and said these words.

William didn't say anything, and just started to focus over these scrolls. The first few words he read were enough to make his eyes bulge. He leant forward, picked that scroll up, and started to read its content with disbelief.

"So, what does it say? Huh?" Tara asked in impatience and curiosity, while she and Angelica literally jumped to stand by his side, as if they were able to get anything from the scroll by gazing at it.

"It's… Complicated to explain…" William sucked in a deep breath, while trying to control his anxiety and shock.

The scroll he picked was speaking about something he was partially familiar with. It was speaking about Mystic Arts, the same as the ones he previously read in the scrolls of the Cult in his world.

He never expected that the first scroll he'd pick would speak about such a secretive matter. And when he moved his eyes around the other four scrolls, he found them speaking about the same topic.
