Chapter 366
Fortunately, there weren't many people in the library, otherwise, if she showed up like this, everyone would know who she was.
"Well, there's no book called "Su Bing Lie Zhen" in the library? I've been searching for it for three days, and I can't find it in the last cabinet. I always feel that there are not enough books here. Is it really a library?"
"So you haven't forgotten to look for "Su Bing Lie Zhen". I thought you were curious about these random books in the library and were looking for them here."
"Of course, when you come to the library, you should browse through all the books and take a look at everything. So, is there no "Su Bing Lie Zhen"?"
"Of course there's no such book in the library."
"But, shouldn't you be able to find all kinds of books in the library? In the dungeon, the dungeon that can be called a 'library' has all kinds of books."
"According to records, the last dungeon with the suffix "library" was probably five hundred years ago. This kind of dungeon is hard to come by..."
Liya paused when she said this.
Wait...
So, in the world of witches and the outside world, a "true thing" has been rumored in the form of a "legend".
Five hundred years ago, there was a dungeon called the "Library of Everything", which was basically made up of books. After the dungeon was conquered, books could be taken out of it.
And... the person who brought out various books on ancient magic and gave them to the current witch seemed to be Yaer.
"Wait, how do you know this? As the boss who appears in the dungeon now, you shouldn't know that there is a library dungeon!"
"I... how do I know, isn't this common sense... common sense?"
She frowned as she spoke.
"Is it common sense? It seems that I haven't heard my subordinates talk about this in the dungeon, and the vampire girl who used to come to the dungeon often didn't say it..."
She hesitated a little, and put back the book "How to Pretend to Know Ancient Magic" in her hand.
"Yes... why do I remember it?"
Leah noticed something wrong with this Al. Will seemed to have told her that if Yaer was really in the dungeon, she would definitely be a "special" existence.
"Forget it. If there is no magic, then there is no magic. Since there is no magic, when she attacks us, we can only make the best of it."
Since she attacks us...?
Leah seemed to remember that although Will said that the attack on Al must rely on the power of Iel's "Plain Ice Array".
But Will didn't seem to explain what he relied on. That book was also an ice-attributed magic, which was not compatible with her, and she hadn't studied it.
From this, it seems that Al really cares about that magic.
According to what Liz said, all the readable versions of ancient magic books were obtained by defeating the BOSS in the dungeon, which might be Yaer.
The readable version of "Plain Ice Array" should have been obtained from her.
Could it be...
Al in front of him could really...have previous memories when he was the BOSS of the dungeon?
"You sound very concerned. Why are you so persistent in finding this book?"
"Why should I tell you? I have my own plans. Besides, you are an adventurer. In a sense, we are enemies who will meet on the battlefield, right?"
"Oh, oh, oh, so you still remember."
Al has been hanging out with her in the library these days, and eating and drinking on the street. Leah almost thought that this guy knew nothing.
"Oh~ Lord Al, the almighty Flame Dragon, can you tell me why you are so persistent in finding the "Plain Ice Array"?"
"If you ask me like this, I won't agree!"
"What if you add an ice cream later?"
"Ice, ice cream is actually not good for the Flame Dragon's stomach with molten lava. Eat less in the future... well, eat less."
"Then add ten kilograms of apples."
"Okay!"
When Al said this, his tail almost swept the books off the bookshelf - this behavior of wagging his tail at the beginning reminded Leah of someone who also had the half-beast element.
After "prepaying" the price of ice cream and apples, Leah sat with her under the tree they saw at the beginning, and then she told her the truth--
"Actually, Baji Baji, it's nothing big, Baji Baji... It's nothing more than the Baji Baji of "Pure Ice Array" after it reaches its extreme... That magic is extremely strong, and it really specifically counters me."
"Oh, it's extremely strong... Today's apples seem to be particularly delicious."
Liya listened to her speaking in a very calm tone, and she also ate an apple-she found herself here with Al, like elementary school students who bought apples after school.
"...Wait a minute?! What did you say? Specifically... specifically counter you?! How do you know what the ultimate magic of "Pure Ice Array" looks like?!"
Liya couldn't hold the apple in her hand steadily, and it fell directly from her hand.
"Yes. What is the final form of this ancient magic? Can't you just remember it in your brain at a glance?"
She caught Leah's apple very accurately with a "snap".
Just as she easily answered Leah's question that had troubled countless witches who studied ancient magic.
"No way!" Leah still didn't know what the Candle of Origin created. "So, what kind of magic is it?"
"Not very good, just pause time. For the Flame Dragon with relatively high defense, pause time is not a problem. During the pause time, because the large magic is not long enough, it will definitely not break the defense. But..."
She also put the next apple back in Leah's hand very preciously, and then continued to talk--
"But for me sitting in the 'cockpit', this time is enough to pull me out. That would be a victory."
"... 'cockpit'?"
"I hope that girl hasn't learned it. Although she looks a little bit short...?"
Chapter 410 Iel's Mission
In front of Will's door, Iel stood at the door with the candle in her hand. Her shadow was stretched very long. After hesitating again and again, she held the door handle.
Bowed to Will who was already lying on the bed in the room.
"Good night, Master. See you tomorrow."
"Good night, Iael."
She smiled and nodded, blew out the candle, wiped the ash on the cabinet on the side of the room, put the candle on it, closed the door, and slowly walked out of the room.
Walking through the empty corridor filled with the aroma of steak, she stood at the door of her room.
The shadow of her animal ears was reflected in the room. Because she discussed with Will how she performed this skill, she actually went to bed a little late today-but she didn't feel sleepy at all.
Standing at the door of her room, she still felt unusually awake, as if she had been injected with some stimulants. She even felt that she could run three laps outside happily and come back.
However, in order to face Will more soberly tomorrow, she slowly opened the door of the room.
Returned to her small room full of the breath left by the master.
She didn't have time to clean up the room, so the layout of the room was still the same as before-
On a whole wall, there were hearts she took out from various fire dragons, and each heart was still written with a name.
Around this wall, there was a small table that belonged to her with a mirror. In addition to combs and hair grooming supplies, the book "Master's Mission" was also placed devoutly.
The mirror was always wiped clean, and she could see the moonlight coming in from the side window when she sat in front of the table.
She sat down, lit a candle, and placed it on one side. So, the candlelight competing with the moonlight illuminated her face from the other side.
She looked up at the shining gray eyes, curly orange hair, and the old collar that Will put on her neck in the mirror...
Everything was exactly the same as before, just like when she stood in front of this mirror before Will came back.
She sat here, in a familiar environment, and felt "at ease".
A sense of security that she had never felt in the previous Systrom family.
"It's strange, I didn't complete the task left by the master..."
She reached out and opened the book again.
A sense of peace that could eliminate all the anxiety when she lost the master before.
Perhaps it was because she had not stood in front of the mirror for many days to take care of Will, and she had not opened the book for a long time. A thin layer of dust had fallen on it, and it felt a little different to the touch.
"So the young master can master the final magic in "Ice Array" without any hints?"
She turned the pages from back to front, and she remembered every task on it very well-
[Task: Maintain and upgrade the weapons at hand. ]
[Task: Practice the ability to brew warm black tea. ]
...
[Task: High temperature training. ]
She didn't seem to perform these tasks these days, and even when Will came back, she didn't perform other tasks.
"But even so, the young master seemed to be more satisfied."
Yi Ai'er stroked her chest with her hand, thinking of Will in the afternoon.
Although she couldn't see his eyes, whether it was his tone or the smile on his lips, Yi Ai'er remembered Will's expression every time she made a little progress.
Even when eating at the table, he cut a few more pieces of beef than usual!
She remembered Will's appetite clearly!
"He showed a very nice expression that made Iaier very happy."
In the candlelight after dinner, when Iaier passed by to clean up the dishes in front of him, he saw him leaning on the wheelchair, but he stretched out his hand to face the book "Su Bing Array" that Iaier placed on the table.
He should not be able to see what was written in the book, but he stretched out his hand to turn the pages one by one, as if he was feeling the notes and traces left by Iaier when he read the book.
In this way, he sat in the dim light, and the candlelight left a very obvious red dot under his pure black sunglasses.
The corners of his mouth slowly, even unconsciously, showed a smile.
A smile that used to only appear when Iaier was prying at the door, when he was studying the knowledge in the book, as if he suddenly understood something.
Since he came back, Iaier has never seen that expression again.
He always sat in silence on the chair, not wanting Yiel to forcefully do what he ordered. Even if she was doing the tasks he had left before, he didn't seem to be happy.
"...So it turns out that seeing the young master's smile like this is what Yi Aier wants most?"
A sense of security, as if you no longer have to worry about being abandoned and no longer "needed".
Yi Aier tried her best to please him, and she wanted to do the same as before. She would do what he asked her to do, so that he would like her.
For a long time, she was just a puppy with a collar around her neck - the most important thing for a pet is to be obedient, and the most important thing for a pet is to dedicate her life to her owner.
In the past, the peace of mind could only be obtained by being by Will's side, satisfying him, and obeying him. Now...
With her own consciousness and her own thoughts, she saved her favorite young master and filled her heart again.
"...Compared to going back to the past, maybe it's better to be like this now?"
Finally, she turned the book to the first page.
She saw the mission that she had copied word for word without any tampering on the first page——
[Mission 433: Defeat the Flame Dragon Al. 】
"Looking at it this way, tomorrow may be considered a very important day."
Elle smiled, picked up the pen, and rewrote the task just like she had done in Will's notebook before, changing the task written on it.
"Now, maybe it should be called... the mission of 'Iel'... right?"
She seemed to have walked in the maze for a long time, and finally found the exit one day.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The next day.
Opening the curtains, Yiel stood in front of the mirror.
She lowered her head, adjusted her maid skirt, put on the bow, and then looked up at herself in the mirror.
Now she is no longer wearing the black maid dress before, but a pure white maid dress that even sparkles in the sun and looks particularly dazzling.
She smiled in the mirror, and just like before, the first thing she did after getting up was to confirm her smile in the mirror.
Then, she turned around and walked out of the door.
