�Reality is different? That�s it? Ugh, he reeks of stupidity. Get away from here. Quickly, get lost!�

Then, when the door finally closed, he grabbed Shirone and bursted out laughing.

�PUHAHAHA! Shirone, that was awesome! I�ve never seen my older brother make that kind of face before!�

While being dragged around by Rian, Shirone�s eyes were staring at the place Rai left through.

�Swordsman vs. Mage!�

Maybe the reality was different, as Rai had said, but Shirone believed he was right.

He believed that the mindset of a mage who explored the boundaries of knowledge without hesitation, despite the fact his weaknesses may show, would overcome a swordsman.�

That cold will was the reason for the existence of intelligence in this world.

The Great Library was cold enough to make one feel chilly.

The bookshelf, which used to be filled with knowledge, was now empty. The luminous lamp that had once brightened up the inside was now also turned off.

Only a single ray of sunshine from the 4th floor window shone on Shirone.

Under the sunlight, Shirone turned the pages.

One page after another� Until finally� he finished the last page and closed the book.

Shirone stroked the cover gently.

It was easy work to flip a book.

However, to finally turn the last page after swimming through a sea of books? Now that wasn�t something anyone could do.

850 books of history.

Shirone read all the history books in the Great Library.

�I�m done� This is my Core of Knowledge.�

It was warm.

He felt the light filling up his heart.

Although he was a hunter�s child, he could now confidently say he knew nearly everything about the whole world!

�A year and six months!�

Although it was a slow start, after reading and reading, Shirone started to accelerate, and once he did that, he never slowed down again. He sped up so much that he finished his work six months ahead of schedule!

Now, he could go back home any time and there would be no reason for his family�s life to be in danger.

�It�s like a dream!�

His mind was filled with the numerous experiences he went through the past year and a half.

�Hey, Shirone! Didn�t you say you finished your work? Why are you still here?�

As he opened the door, Rian fanned his hands and coughed due to the dust. JrNovels.com
