Logan was shopping the books within the Imperial Library as we speak. Many of the books have been obtainable within the Grand Duchy, however he nonetheless visited the Imperial Library each month simply in case he missed something.
It was a spot the place individuals who had acquired miracles from the god of the underworld, or who wished miracles, gathered. They have been thought of eccentric and stored their distance from beings on the floor.
After a lot effort, Logan was in a position to mix in. The explanation Logan didn’t discuss this place was that the knowledge he obtained from them was fairly priceless. Nonetheless, just lately, he began to assume that possibly this place may disappear.
The so-called “miracles” haven’t been occurring these days. Issues like individuals who have been on the verge of loss of life coming again to life. These occasions have been uncommon to start with, however now that they had utterly vanished. Maybe Mary’s disappearance had affected these miracles…
Or possibly Mary disappeared simply earlier than their desired intentions may very well be fulfilled.
‘One other day, one other waste.’
Logan couldn’t discover any vital materials within the library, and there was no new details about the underground world. Even the individuals on the temple appeared baffled.
Maybe it was time to inform them that every one the ‘miracles’ weren’t as a result of god of the underworld, however to the gods up within the sky who have been impressed by their efforts.
With a pleasant face, Logan casually slipped into that type of dialog.
Since Mary Conler disappeared, every little thing has felt stagnant. Everybody within the Grand Duchy appeared to be on edge.
Logan’s new pastime was observing Tia Bluea. At any time when Logan stared at her intently, Tia would kindly strategy him and strike up a dialog.
Logan gladly engaged in dialog along with her. What began with a couple of exchanged phrases steadily turned longer discussions.
It was solely pure for Tia Bluea, since within the Grand Duchy, Logan was the one one who confirmed curiosity in her.
As she was comfy with him, she would typically complain about why individuals have been treating her like that when she herself got here from a decent household.
Nicely, in the event you don’t prefer it, you don’t have to come back.
She had no concept what Logan was considering as he smiled sweetly in entrance of her.
Logan, nonetheless, skillfully hid his innermost ideas and acted as if he actually loved spending time with Tia Bluea.
For Logan, it was essential to converse with Tia Bluea as a result of he needed to discover the similarities between her and Sofia Bruno.
May that be thought of similarity? Even Logan wasn’t certain about that.
Logan, who forcibly searched for his or her similarities, akin to flipping her hair to 1 aspect, parting her hair to the left, or lengthening her phrases, ultimately gave up, feeling pathetic.
“Mr. Logan Riley?”
Somebody known as out to him as he trudged again to the carriage, feeling dejected. Logan turned and noticed a person he didn’t acknowledge.
A stranger known as his title as he emerged from the temple. Logan stepped again, on excessive alert.
He rapidly scanned the person from head to toe. At first look, he appeared nice.
Nonetheless, Logan took one other step again. It was as a result of the person had black hair.
“Who’re you?”
Though his eyes have been brown. The person smiled affectionately as if making an attempt to interrupt Logan’s guard.
“I’m proper.”
“Why don’t you inform me who you might be first?”
The person closed the space that Logan had fastidiously created. Logan was displeased, however as an alternative of backing off once more, he folded his arms. The person bowed politely.
“My title is Arsene.”
Logan’s gaze turned icy on the point out of his title. He launched his arms and grabbed Arsene by the collar, pulling him in the direction of the wall.
Arsene thought to himself, “Looks like this occurs typically,” as he appeared on the hand gripping his collar.
His palms have been white and nice, as if he had by no means held a weapon like a sword in his life. It should be true that he confined himself in his lab and simply research.
He additionally had a horrible grip on Arsene. However Arsene didn’t say something, simply adopted Logan’s lead.
“Aren’t you going to reply?”
Disregarding Arsene’s efforts to repair his look, Logan grabbed Arsene’s collar as soon as once more. Avoiding Logan’s gaze, Arsene remembered what Mary had mentioned to him earlier than they got here right here.
He’d mentioned that Logan was a bit annoying, however he was fairly rational, so he’d be simple to speak to.
Fairly rational… But he loses his composure when he give a barely delayed response.
“May you settle down for now and let go of this?”
“You took Mary Conler, didn’t you? The place did you’re taking her?”
“Mary is doing nicely.”
Upon seeing the decided look in Arsene’s eyes, Logan loosened his grip on his collar. Then he took a tough breath.
It appeared like his voice was breaking, as if he had by no means shouted earlier than. Arsene felt sorry for him.
Seems to be like he has used up all his vitality. Arsene may hear Mary’s voice, anxious about Logan’s lack of train.
Arsene thought that if Mary have been to return, he’d have to inform her to get Logan in form.
“So why did you present up in entrance of me?”
Logan requested in a barely calmer voice.
Lastly, Arsene thought that this was the Logan Mary talked about, the one who was “a bit annoying, however nonetheless fairly rational.” Arsene fortunately replied.
“Mary mentioned she wished one thing from you.”
He didn’t really consider Mary when she mentioned that another person knew in regards to the god of the underworld or Yusa.
He had come to see Logan half-heartedly, as a result of he wished to present her no matter she wished.
Something she wished to know, any questions she might need, if she was confused about one thing, Arsene may reply all of them.
“Nicely, it’s fairly in depth.”
Sadly, nonetheless, Logan was not cooperative in any respect. The scowling man from earlier appeared all of the sudden relaxed.
“Simply inform me. It’s what Mary desires.”
“If I begin reciting it to you, do you assume you may memorize all of it?”
It was infantile.
Mary, you’re mistaken. This man may be very annoying, not slightly
He may now totally perceive why Mary requested him if it was okay for him to satisfy Logan in individual.
“Then, are you able to write it for me?”
“I’d want tons of parchment, however my palms damage.”
Logan shook his wrists backward and forward as if considering how painful it was.
“Mary had a tough concept of who he was.”
Logan’s face grew critical once more at Arsene’s phrases.
“You imply the id of the underworld god?”
“In case you cooperate, maybe I can get Mary again slightly sooner.”
“If Mary may come right here, she wouldn’t have disappeared out like that, would she?”
“Then why don’t I simply go over there?”
“How can I belief you and take you there?”
“How can I belief you handy over my stuff?”
They’ll’t talk. Logan and Arsene checked out one another and thought the identical factor. After observing one another with out averting their gaze, Logan sighed.
“Are you certain that if I hand over my supplies, Miss Mary can come again quickly?”
“……Sure.”
“In case you’ll excuse me for a second, I’ve some notes in my lab that I’ve organized.”
He didn’t appear to be the type of one who would simply surrender his stubbornness. Seeing Logan surrender unexpectedly rapidly, Arsene hesitated to observe him.
Is that this some type of entice? Was he making an attempt to catch him off guard and seize him alive?
“Don’t fear, I’m going to cooperate.”
“Why?”
“Miss Mary has her causes, and I perceive why you may’t simply belief me.”
“However why do you……?”
“The explanation I consider you is due to your title, Arsene. The woman has typically advised me that you simply helped her.”
A mild expression crossed Logan’s delicate face. Whereas considering it was lucky that Mary was cherished quite a bit, Arsene puzzled.
Did Mary not point out that Arsene was a canine? Was he pretty much as good as Mary mentioned he was…….
“Oh,” mentioned Logan. “You do appear to be a canine.”
Arsene had a hunch he’d by no means get together with Logan.
