Chapter 16 The Mysterious Side
-Fain's POV-
*Ehem*
I took one look at her and decided it was time to get what I came here for. "Can I go to the library right now?"
"Yes, follow me, but I warn you, the information contained in this library is very valuable. It was a secret that only important people would know, so don't let your greed get the best of you. You have to make sure you get what you really need. You are now at your own risk," she said.
I looked at her, and while she appears naive on the outside, it seems that she had some maturity within her. It was, however, understandable. Because she is the daughter of a prestigious family. She had to deal with politics and other people's machinations on occasion.
I'm currently lacking in information. Ignorance could cost me my life in this dangerous world. That's why I decided to gather as much information as possible. I can only make a rational decision if I have all of the relevant information. Regardless of how intelligent someone is...
He'll never be able to do anything without information. because you can't build a wall unless you have bricks Just as detectives require clues in order to reach a conclusion. That's how vital the information was...
I immediately followed her into a creepy-looking underground...
'As expected, exactly like in the movies in my previous life.'
...
-5 minutes later-
We've arrived at a normal-looking wall.
'Would it be the thing where you press the wall and the door suddenly opens?'
' I pondered as I stared doubtfully at the door.
Sofia made a mysterious face as she looked at me. She began to fondle the wall as if looking for something.
'AS EXPECTED, just like in the movies I thought with disappointment.
After a while, the wall began to tremble, just like in the movies... The wall had split on two sides, exposing the entrance completely.
I just stood there staring at the scene, unconcerned. Sofia looked at me as if she was waiting for a reaction.
I just smiled as I looked at her. When she saw this, she turned around and asked, disappointed. "Hey, why are you so calm? Don't you want to ask me some questions? Aren't you interested in what's going on right now?"
"Not really, I was expecting something like this," I said with a proud smile.
Sofia simply looked at me suspiciously before turning around to lead the way.
*Sigh*
"Why can't anyone believe an honest person like me?" I bemoaned as I contemplated the harsh reality...
I looked at her with my eyes half-closed, but she just looked at me like I was a fool.
'Oppppsss... 'It appears that someone has grown accustomed to my teasing.' I reflected inwardly and resolved to abandon my terrible sense of humor.
We walked in this manner for at least eight minutes because it was dark in the tunnel. In this quiet place, you can only hear the sound of our footsteps.
The light at the end of the tunnel is finally visible in front of us. What greets me as I emerge from the tunnel is...
It's like a WHOLE NEW WORLD...
There was a mountain of books in front of me, and I expected the place to be orderly, but I didn't expect to see such a complete mess.
"You might be wondering why this place is so messy," she joked.
'This girl now has the upper hand on me,' I grumbled as I clicked my tongue.
"Well, do entertain me," I said, crossing my arms in front of my chest and looking at her in the eyes.
She puffed her chest proudly and smiled triumphantly at me.
'Is this what it means when they say you got a taste of your own medicine?'
'I cursed myself for being such a jerk.
"Well, you got me right there, so, can you explain what the point of this is?" I inquired, my interest genuine.
"Follow me, it's better to show you," she says, returning to her serious demeanor.
We're now standing in front of a book, with Sofia typing on it as if it were a keyboard.
'How on earth is that even possible?' Isn't this a technologically backward place? ' I reflected.
Sofia asked, looking at me. "So, what do you want to learn first?"
"Well, first and foremost, I'd like to learn about this World's Mysterious side..." I stated flatly.
She gave me a strange look but said nothing. She quickly began to move her fingers in the book as if typing something. I looked at this scene with interest, but it was just a blank page.
'Is there some type of condition here? and one connected to Vladimir's family? Is this their method of preventing information leaks? If that's the case, this is a brilliant way to keep a secret.' Questions begin to arise in my mind.
? Despite the fact that this World's technology is outdated. There are so many things that even advanced science in my previous life couldn't explain.
Sofia finally turned her attention to me after ensuring that everything was in order. She handed me a sheepskin-covered book and said. "This is the detailed information of this World's supernatural side," she stated solemnly.
I examined the book with interest and decided to turn the page slowly. When I saw the first page, I was shocked; after another eight pages, I was horrified; and after finishing the book, my face was numb.
I can see why they'd want to keep this a secret. After all, the information I just read has the potential to turn the entire world upside down. I was still having trouble believing it. First, I took a deep breath to calm myself. I looked at Sofia, who was staring at the floor; she must have known what was in this book for a long time. What a poor child... This book should not be allowed outside because it will incite riots and panic among ordinary people. There is no doubt that chaos will engulf the entire world. This world is really...
*Sigh*
Forget it. because what I just saw in the book just now was...
