Chapter 80: 80: Knowledge Is Power Part 2

By the time the following day had arrived, numerous supplies had moved around Galos City without attracting any attention in particular. The members of the faction Sovereign faction remained inconspicuous in public and although only a day had passed, Lady Belle's anxiousness of the unknown began to grow.

Despite this she could not openly make a big move and risk antagonizing Aron in the process. Spying was one thing but using her members to interrogate his was surely a recipe for disaster... unless done stealthy...

Meanwhile for another day in a row Aron made his way towards the Academy, this is its own was slightly odd since he rarely came at all and had still never formally attended any class.

Some believed they just didn't see him or he took different courses as was the case with many of the high rankers who chose to not stand out much like Juliet and Anastasia who rarely showed themselves either.

Near the gate an average looking student stood nervously while glancing around at the many students passing by anxiously, when she saw Aron approaching in the distance she slightly perked and looked excited.

However this lasted only a moment before her face showed a look of worry and nervousness. Normally Aron looked neither approachable nor scary at first glance, but given his status and the imposing atmosphere he gave off it was only natural for people who weren't approached by him to make the first move.

"E-excuse me!" As Aron was about to bypass the nervous student, she mustered up her courage and called out to him with her eyes closed and her body stiff. "Hmm?" Aron paused and looked at her but said nothing as if wanting to confirm if she was talking to him.

"Is something the matter?" Seeing as she was frozen like a statue and unable to speak any further, Aron took the initiative and spoke first. This broke the girl out of her daze immediately as she replied energetically and said "Oh yes!... Lady Rose was asking for your assistance at the library." 

Aron raised his brow curiously as he focused on the word "assistance", it immediately sprung a couple of ideas in his mind but he didn't entertain any of them and asked the reason directly to the student. However she also didn't know the details of the assistance Lady Rose needed or at least claimed so.

"Is there a specific time I need to see her?" Aron no longer probed the girl and decided to move on, the student shook his head at his question before replying. "No, she's closed the library until further notice so you can seek her out there at anytime today." She replied in a low tone before receiving a nod from Aron.

"Then I'll head there right now." Aron saw no reason to delay the matter and turned to leave, however the nervous girl offered to lead him there like he wasn't aware of the way.

Aron didn't protest and the two quietly made their way to the library, however once they reached he corridor leading to it they found numerous students standing outside.

"How come the library isn't opening today?"

"Did something happen? Is there an event taking place again?" 

"How long will it stay closed..."

Judging from the questions that and opinions that kept being thrown around, it was easy to tell that the library closing was obviously done abruptly and without notice. 

As the nervous girl appeared in the corridor,many students turned to her and began firing questions.

"Agnes is Lady Rose okay?"

"Why is the library closed?"

"When will it open?"

"You're the assistant, come on explain?!"

Many of the students sought answers from the nervous girl who actually turned out to be one of the few library assistants. 

If one saw this scene they'd think the students were extremely passionate about knowledge and their studies, unwilling to bear the library closing. Aron who knew the actual reason for this didn't know how to even react, only shaking his head as if seeing something truly eye opening. 

"Lady Rose has some business to attend to so please bear with it and avoid disturbing her!" Despite her nervous demeanor, Agnes's high pitched voice echoed in the corridor causing the students to go silent, none were willing to disturb Lady Rose.

What is simplemindedness? This was simplemindedness. Without arguing everyone seemed content with the answer although dejected like they had lost a part of their soul, to Aron this individuals truly were "special"

After giving them a satisfying reason she continued walking towards the library with Aron beside her. Many thought he was just here for the same reason as them, a fellow believer if you will but they soon realized he was actually intending to enter.

Did they want to speak? Yes. Did they? No. Rank four with the title of Harbinger while holding the record of most beasts killed ever in the Journey's history. If love was blind then fear was the cure as none of them dared to even ask the reason he was there.

One of the smarter people present, directly asked Agnes instead about Aron being the one she had business with and she nodded without giving any more information.

Alas everyone felt their heart grow heavy. Who would be happy knowing their crush wanted to see a man stronger than them who wasn't lacking in looks either. Today these students experienced a different kind of pain.

The pain would only grow worse as Agnes remained outside and only Aron was allowed to enter. Business? A man and woman? Alone? Imaginations began to run wild and they flooded Agnes with questions but she genuinely said she didn't know. 

Inside however, upon entering the library Aron could no longer hear noise coming from the outside. Either he hadn't noticed this feature before or it was new. He didn't give it much thought and turned to a table where the woman who had summoned him stood patiently with her gaze focused on numerous sheets of paper on the table.

She didn't look up at Aron even as he slowly approached her, his gaze had also shifted from her towards the sheets of paper as well that had neat sketches of beasts of varying types. All of them beasts was very familiar with.

"May I ask for your help identifying these? The academy is lacking in knowledge of beasts." Without even giving him a greeting she immediately asked for his assistance, Aron who had been expecting a much more interesting development was slightly let down as he turned his attention to the sketches.

Without wasting time, he began naming each of them while giving certain details about them as well. Lady Rose quietly listened to everything he had to say before she finally raised her head towards him.

"Does the best learning institution in Pesia not have a department that studies beasts or at the very least records them?" Aron asked with a brow slightly raised, he knew from the journey that many individuals had little knowledge of beasts so perhaps in this world only the strong ones were made notice off.

"It does, however how could they hold records of beasts that aren't from Pesia." As Lady Rose said this, Aron furrowed his brows and realized he may have just exposed himself.

Was there a problem with originating from Limbo? No. However it still wasn't knowledge he wanted made public.

"I suppose you're right. Then how did they end up here?" Aron maintained his demeanor acting as if he wasn't bothered by what he had just revealed. A weakness is only a weakness if you let it be viewed as one. 

"I have my theories but I can't confirm anything just yet, evolution is out of the question which only leaves one very likely reason..."

'A Limbo crack..' They thought in unison before staring at each other blankly as if they encountered a very problematic individual.
