Chapter 86: Black Tome

While thinking of something, Randy approached the thick black book and after thinking for a bit, he then observed the book up close with scrutinizing eyes. 

Upon a closer look, he could see some indiscernible characters and designs on the cover of the book, however perhaps due to age, those patterns were hard to see since it seems to be worn out by the ravages of time, coupled with the fact that the cover of the book itself was pitch black in terms of color. 

'Why does it feel like this book was reacting to my magical energy when I came to this floor? No, it should be the opposite, I think my magical energy is reacting to this book since earlier. I thought I was imagining things, however, the more I get close to this black book, the more I could feel the stir in my mana seed. Is it some magical tool or something? Does that mean that it could somehow resonate with those with mana in their body? But if that is the case, why did Miss Feng never mention anything about it being a magic tool with this kind of feature?'

Randy silently pondered as he looked at the floating thick black book in front of him. 

After pondering without understanding what was going on, Randy quickly thought of a method that could answer his questions.

Although this method might not work seeing as how nobody had been able to recognize what this black book was or how to even open the book according to what he had heard from Miss Feng a long time ago, nonetheless, it could not hurt to try and see whether it works or not at this moment. 

With that thought in mind, he outstretched his right arm forward without hesitation, and then he placed his hand on the floating black book.

There was no reaction whatsoever, however, based on his previous experience, he proceeded to wait for a few moments.

A few moments later…

[[Attention!]] 

[[Discovered the Ancient Black Tome of an Arch Sorcerer!]]

The system suddenly announced after a while. 

After quickly reading through the notification that abruptly appeared on the holographic screen in front of his eyes, Randy was instantly shocked. 

He had his doubts about whether it would work or not, but it was now confirmed with this notification from his system.

And then he proceeded to skim through the description given by the system, and immediately after that, he unconsciously revealed a delighted smile on her face. 

After glancing through the description of the black book, Randy suddenly walked away from the table where the thick black book was floating on. 

Now was not the time for him to be excited, only after he fully obtain this black book would he feel excited about his discovery, and thus he went downstairs to the first floor. 

A short while later, he came back to the second floor with the shop owner, Miss Feng. 

They both walked toward the other end of the bookshelf when they arrived on the second floor.

At this moment, they stood in front of the thick black book that was floating on top of the display table. 

At this point, Miss Feng could not help but speak: "Randy, so I did not hear you wrongly when you mentioned the 'black book floating on the table'? It turns out you were indeed referring to this useless unknown book on this floor?"

"Yes." Randy replied. 

"Why would you want to buy this unknown book of all things... instead of choosing from the various magic spell books on this floor?" Miss Feng asked in confusion. 

"Well, I just felt like this book might be special and that it might contain some amazing spell if I could somehow manage to open it someday." Randy thought for a bit and then replied to her.

"Even so, wouldn't you be wasting your money instead if you cannot find a way to open it after purchasing it? Do you even know how much this book cost?" Miss Feng said in an unconvinced tone after hearing his response. 

She did not understand why Randy would rather buy a useless and unknown book instead of buying a spell book like he had intended to. 

"Ah, about that, I brought you here precisely because of this matter. I don't have much money, but could you please tell me how much this book cost and I will happily buy it off your hands if I can afford it afterward." Randy said with a smile as he rubbed his palms against each other in anticipation. 

Looking at him like this, Miss Feng gave up on convincing him and then replied: "Actually, this book does not cost much money despite its size which seemed to indicate that it would cost quite a sum of money." 

"Huh? Why is that?" Randy asked in curiosity. 

At this question, Miss Feng responded: "You remember that I once told you about the origin of this book, right?"

"That… Can you please tell me again? At the time, I was still a kid, so I did not think much of your words back then so…" Randy said to her as he scratched the back of his head.

"It's alright, I don't mind telling you again." Miss Feng waved her hand dismissively as she said to him. 

Saying this, her expression immediately turned solemn as she suddenly spoke: "This may somewhat be shocking to the current you or perhaps not, but in truth, this black book was found in a world that was once on a verge of destruction which stemmed from countless geniuses and prominent figures in that world fighting over who should possess the mysterious black book that suddenly appeared in their world through a space rift." 

"Wait, the book appeared in their world? How is that possible? Can the book itself warp through space or something?" Randy appeared surprised as he doubtfully asked with a confused expression.

"Haah… Just wait and let me finish first." Miss Feng sighed and then said to him.

And then she continued: "In the midst of their war for possession, countless lives were lost, and eventually someone had managed to take ahold of the mysterious black book during the chaos. That person tried to ply it open, however, they soon found out that they could not open the book no matter how much effort or trick they use on the book. When all the other powerhouses saw that someone had managed to take the book and even failed at opening it, they instantly rushed over and then took the book from that person with a doubtful expression. Afraid that something might happen, they did not try to open it themselves instead, one by one they let their men try to open the mysterious black book with no one being able to open it in the end."
