"You were not there... You couldn't hear it... It was not that emperor who rescued Black; it was most likely someone working for him! The way he talked... I am sure that he is stronger than we think!" Explained Leion, and after a deep breath, he continued. "I think he held back when I tried to kill him; that is why I am still alive."
"That... if that is the case, could he rival the strength of our elders?" Questioned the eldest man in the room and looked at Leion.
"No... I think even if our elders were to fight him... They would lose..." Said Leion, and once again, he lowered his head.
"Could he rival our diety in strength?" Spoke up Leion's father after some time.
"If what your son said is true, and he really did hold back... Then there is a slight chance... After all, a whole city was destroyed in that event..." Replied the eldest man.
"I am sorry, but I think I should go now... Although I am a hero, my experience can't rival yours; if I stay here, I would only hinder you. Please forgive me; I think I should leave. Goodbye, everyone!"
Said Leion and stood up. His father quickly stood up, but the other two men stared at him, so instead, he sat back down and only nodded. Leion looked at his ring and closed his fist, and, with a yellowish light, was teleported to a library. The library was large and was many floors tall. Just like in the study, the light was provided by crystals, as the library was too big for the windows to provide enough light. Leion was teleported right in front of the door of the library, and next to him, a young girl in a maid outfit was cleaning some books on a table whit a piece of cloth while she was humming. The girl had slightly curly green hair and red eyes, and as she was cleaning, she was smiling and slightly moving, almost as if she was dancing. As Leion stepped forward, the floor slightly creaked under his feet, and the girl jumped up and quickly turned around to look at Leion's chest as she was much shorter than him.
"Oh, Princ leion! Please forgive me for not noticing you!" Jabbered the girl and quickly bowed.
"Don't worry about me. I just came looking for some information." Replied Leion with a smile on his face.
"B-but sir... I heard that you had been injured. If you needed something, you could have simply ordered me to bring you the book or books you desired. You know I would be happy to do that for you, sir! And what if someone sees you here? What..." Jabbered the girl even faster than before, but Leion interrupted her.
"I am already fine! I just needed to sleep for some time, that's all. And if someone comes here, then I will deal with them." Said Leion and walked closer to the girl.
"I... I understand, Prince Leion! In that case, what can I get for you?" Asked the girl with a smile.
"Everything related to casting or spells." Replied Leion and scratched his head.
"Sir, I thought you were already proficient in that area. But I will find you everything we have on that topic!" Jabbered the girl and quickly walked away.
"That silver-haired guy used some strange spell... What could it be? Although he was strong, I don't think he could have dealt that much damage to Black with a single spell... It seemed as if it was not a spell focused on physical damage, as Black seemed unharmed physically, yet he seemed in great pain!"
Though Leion and he walked over to the table and sat down. He grabbed the books the girl was previously cleaning and put them into one pile. After he was done moving the books, he leaned back and stared at the crystal above his head.
"Now that I think about it. I don't even know what happened to him... When I meet him again, I will thank him for dealing with Black... And if I can't find anything about that spell, I will ask him about it." Thought Leion and was surprised, as moments later, the maid came back.
"Sir, so far, I only found these, but I will keep looking; I am sure we have dozens of books about your topic."
Said the girl with great enthusiasm, placed two books on the table and walked back to the selves. Leion looked at the books and opened one of them, and started reading it. As time went on, the maid brought more and more books over to Leion. Eventually, there were almost forty books on the table, and by the time the maid finished her search, Leion had barely finished half of the first book.
"Do not let anyone in without my permission." Ordered Leion as the maid was about to leave.
"As you wish, Prince Leion. Would you like me to do anything else?" Asked the girl with a sweet smile.
"No, thank you!" Replied Leion without looking up from the book he was reading.
"Alright, I hope you find what you are looking for!"
