Chapter 10: The Man
"In this way, I have been sealed in the book, and when I calculate the time, it should have been five hundred and sixty-three years, and in the past five years, you have been the first batch of students to come to the sixth floor. ”
The tattered and old books were windless and automatic, jumping and jumping, the pages rattled, and the thin Yafanka phantom sat on the open pages, constantly circling in circles.
She had been alone for too long to sleep while she was in the books, but she was sent to the empty library, kept only by the moonlight and cobwebs every night.
"Heresy Witch...... There was indeed such a period in history, but it was suppressed by the royal family and the church. Sost recalled.
"You said you were rescued and sealed in this book?" Ferrante asked.
"Yes, it was a very strange person, I couldn't even see his face, and when my soul floated out of the stake, I saw him staring at me in the crowd, and then I fainted, and when I woke up again, it was already in the book. ”
The tiger girl Yafanka quietly told her experience, which caused the three of them to ponder.
"What is this book about?" Ferrante asked suddenly.
Yafanka's body writhed lightly, and she delivered the tattered book to Ferrante, and the pages turned in such a way that his eyes widened a lot.
"It's the same as the text on the magic scroll!"
"What!"
"Yafanka, do you know what this text is?"
"I don't know...... I can't read. ”
"Do you hate them? I mean the one who burned you at the stake. ”
"Cassia!" Thorst glared, it wasn't a good habit to uncover other people's scars.
But Cassia didn't seem to hear Sost's warning, and looked at Yafanka floating in the air calmly.
"I ...... Don't hate, I'm not a witch, but if I hadn't been burned at the stake, I would have been terminally ill, and I wouldn't have lived long, and my father would have gotten a lot of money, and besides, it's been so long, there's no reason to blame what they've done on the heads of people now. ”
"What a kind girl. Sost praised.
"You are not gentlemanly at all, even a little obscene. ”
"Cassia, are you a gentleman, this is the second time you have violated my personality!"
"Stop arguing. Ferrante woke up from his contemplation, "It seems that this kind of writing is indeed related to magic, maybe it was a magician who sealed Yavanka back then. ”
"You opened the door?"
"No, I don't have the power to open that door. ”
Yafanka didn't seem to care that she was trapped here, and the arrival of the three of them had given her enough luck.
After a while, Sost glanced at his pocket watch, and at half past two in the morning, the three of them were ready to leave here, even if they had gained more knowledge tonight, even if they and Yafanka still had a lot to talk about, they still had to sleep, and tomorrow's class could not be delayed, which involved the key to unlocking the secrets of the magic scroll.
Before leaving, they tried to push the door to the seventh floor, but they still didn't move, you know, the seventh floor of the Great Library is the oldest ancient book in history.
But the three of them were not disappointed, they were able to come to the sixth floor and see the existence of Yafanka, and tonight was already worth the trip.
"Yafanka, what do you think of this place?"
As soon as he walked out of the door, Sost suddenly turned around and asked, Cassia and Ferrante knew in an instant what he wanted to do, thieves don't go empty, let alone a tomb robber.
"Do you want to go for a walk?"
"Sost, now is not the time to do such a thing!"
Thorst ignored Ferrante's snort, reached out to Yavanka, and stepped back into the door.
Yafanka, a tiger girl who relied on the broken ancient books, was stunned, the passage of time did not take away her innocent side, and her eyes lit up with a glimmer.
A cold wind blew, and Yafanka's figure vanished, but the tattered ancient book flew into Sost's palm.
With a smile on his lips, Sost turned and left, but the moment the ancient book crossed the gate, a strong burning sensation spread to Sost's arm.
The unbearable pain made him subconsciously let go of the ancient book, and when he withdrew his arm, there was a little burn on the back of his hand.
And the ancient book also fell to the ground, and Yafanka's soul appeared, obviously a little more transparent, and the light in his eyes also dimmed.
"Look, I'll just say, I can't get out. ”
Chirping......
The door on the sixth floor slowly closed, leaving only a gap, and the two of them hurriedly left here with the unwilling Sost.
The way back also required climbing the wall, and when Sost and Ferrante were the first to go down through the window, Cassia suddenly stopped.
When he left Sears, Sost also created a balance ring for him, saying that it was a symbol of his status as a magician, but now that he remembered it, it seemed that he had just been frightened by Yafanka and fell on the floor of the sixth floor.
"You wait for me, I'll be back soon!"
"Hey!"
When Cassia stood in front of the door again, he could still see through the crack in the door the dark space inside, and Yafanka seemed to have returned to the bookshelf, and the balance ring was lying alone on the floor.
Pushing open the door and calling twice, Yafanka didn't appear, maybe what happened just now also hurt her.
Cassia didn't think much about it, leaned down and picked up the ring, the cold silver ring made him shiver, and his bent waist froze for a moment.
He suddenly didn't dare to stand up straight, and the hairs on his neck trembled, as if as long as he raised his head, he would look directly at the terrifying existence in front of him.
Someone!
Swallowing his saliva, the fear of despair hit Cassia Ming's heart, but a chill came from the silver ring, which made him sober up a little.
Gritting his teeth, Cassia boldly stood up straight, his eyes staring straight ahead, and out of nowhere, an idea came to him, why be afraid?
As far as the eye could see, the tapestry fluttered in the window in front of him, and the broken moonlight seeped in, and a tall black figure was standing there, flipping through the ancient book that sealed Yafanka in his hand, and turned his head to look at Cassia.
The tall black figure couldn't see its face, its gender and age, and only a black mist shrouded its face.
The whole body is like a tattered cloak, windless, and like a demon hiding in the black mist, waiting for an opportunity.
Looking at the black mist on the other party's face, Cassia felt a blank in his heart, although he couldn't see anything, he knew that the other party was staring at him, staring at him with a smile.
Maybe it's a moment, a second, but cassia feels like years.
The tall figure raised his hand to return the ancient book to the shelf, and the black mist shrouded it, and he bowed to Cassia.
The voices of men and women who couldn't tell the difference were like the friction of steam gears, which was heart-wrenching, echoing in this empty and dark library.
"See you again, dear you. ”
"What?" Cassia stepped forward.
But the figure did not make any unnecessary explanations, but suddenly held his head in his hands and fell into a state of extreme pain.
The shrill shouts pierced Cassia Bright's eardrums, as if countless people were screaming and screaming in fear and despair in their ears.
As the voice diminished, the tall black figure vanished, dissipating in the moonlight like a black mist.
The sound of his heartbeat in his chest was clearly audible, and Cassia touched his back, already in a cold sweat.
When the tall black figure dissipated, in the office of the headquarters of the Gewu Society in Evos City, a middle-aged man in regular clothes took off his glasses and frowned.
"Someone went into the library......"
Before the words fell, the middle-aged man got up and put on his coat and walked out of the office quickly.
......
......
At noon the next day, Ferrante and Sost woke up at the same time yawning, and yesterday's thrilling night was so exciting that they slept until now.
"Wake up, eat something. ”
Cassia put the pastry and porridge on the table and sat aside.
"You woke up so early. ”
No, no, I didn't sleep well at all...... Cassia muttered to himself that he hadn't said anything about what had happened to him since he came back yesterday, but the tall black figure had been haunting him.
Who is the other person, why is that attitude, and does the other person know himself?
I don't have a clue about everything, and I can't think of a reason.
After a while, the two of them finished eating 'breakfast', and in just a few minutes, the classroom was full.
The three of them sat in the middle position, Cassia was still thinking about what happened last night, and Sost was also touching his chin, and the figure of Yafanka appeared in his mind from time to time.
Only Ferrante spread out his notebook and waited earnestly for the arrival of the president.
Knock knock.
A middle-aged man knocked on the door, took off his well-breasted jacket, lifted his glasses, and stood on the podium and smiled at the suddenly quiet classroom.
"Hello students, my name is Kvass and I am the instructor of this class. ”
