《The Primordial》Chapter 5 - A New Connection
Advertisement
Inside the Ragnarr estate, Valcor and Ashuen were having a discussion within a private study.
“Sylvie’s banquet must be wonderful. We can’t prevent the filth from attending, but we can at least let Glenn and Avera handle the trouble. This is Sylvie’s special day. There can’t be any mishaps. “ Ashuen spoke sternly to her husband, Valcor.
“Of course, I know that, I feel the same. She’s our daughter, after all. Those scum have no place here, but I’ll do what is within my power. “ Valcor nodded seriously.
“Alright, let’s prepa-“ Ashuen froze as she suddenly felt two incredibly threatening presences.
“In the garden! “ Ashuen yelled, anxious.
“Yes, hurry! “ Valcor responded frantically.
A layer of water piercing forward from Ashuen's body, she explosively launched forward with immense speed. Next to her, Valcor’s body became surrounded by fire as he stepped heavily on the floor, also launching forward. Where he stepped, the floor was crushed and charred.
Seconds later, a body of water and fire simultaneously appeared inside their garden where the presences were located. Temporarily withdrawing their mana, they became dumbfounded. With the same dumbfounded expression, Sylvie was standing besides an array with a man and woman inside.
The man was laying on his back with a frown, while the woman was on top of him with a cheerful expression.
Recovering from their shock, Ashuen and Valcor looked at each other.
‘Although the presences we felt are gone, it must be them. Whether they’re friend or foe, we must determine this right away.’ Ashuen spoke quietly to Valcor.
‘Right. If they have malicious intentions, take Sylvie and send an emergency message to the Capital and the other city leaders while I hold them.’ Valcor voiced adamantly.
‘No, I’ll break the Razzir Medallion and send Sylvie away with a Transportation Rune. We’ll hold them together. ‘
‘Alright’ Valcor nodded to Ashuen.
“Speak! Who and what are you? How did you get so deep into this city? “ Valcor questioned with vigilance. He wanted to get in front of Sylvie, but the pair on the ground were closer. He didn’t want to risk something happening to her because of his rashness. After all, the threat they felt most likely came from the two.
“Will you get off of me already and remove that content smile? How do you not even react to this situation? Damn, the first people we meet, and it has to be like this. “ the man scolded the cheerful woman before sighing.
With Sylvie and her parents inspecting them closely, the man and woman finally stood up, returning their stares.
Finally getting a good look, some shock ran through the entire group, especially Sylvie.
The woman was incredibly beautiful, but her expression wasn’t cheerful like before. It was emotionless. She was wearing a knee-high black dress with pitch black, red tipped hair dropping down to her waist. Ruby red eyes with vertical black iris’, they also noticed very thin black scales under her eyes and along the edges.
From the woman, Valcor and Ashuen noticed something, other than her rare features and emotionless visage.
Gazing into her red eyes, they shivered, as they felt an endless threat of darkness and bloodthirst hidden deep within. This was something they’d never experienced before. How many lives would one have to take to gain something like this?
Before they could fully comprehend it, the danger within her gaze disappeared when the man put his hand on her shoulder.
Lost in the woman’s eyes, Valcor and Ashuen finally focused on the seemingly ordinary man.
Looking to be in his late 20s, he only had a normal black cloth shirt and pants on, as well as a pair of leather boots. He had short, black hair and a stubbly beard, but the most striking aspect were his eyes: unusually grey, they were deep and unfathomable, like the ocean. How a man seemingly in his late 20s could project such a feeling, was a mystery. And unlike the woman, you could feel absolutely no danger hidden within.

As Valcor and Ashuen watched him with their full vigilance, they noticed that he didn’t even pay them a single glance. Following his line of sight, he was staring directly at Sylvie. To their puzzlement, Sylvie was also staring at him unblinkingly.
Observing this, Valcor started shaking slightly as he was about to charge towards the man in a rage, afraid that he was targeting their daughter. Before he could move, Ashuen grabbed him and put her finger in front of her lips, making a *hush* gesture.
‘What are you doing? Don’t you see this!?’ Valcor looked at his wife as he lowered his voice, clearly angered.
‘Let’s wait and see. Treat it as my intuition.’ Ashuen whispered.
Valcor could only relent as he gave a surprised look towards Ashuen.
Staring into each others’ eyes, Sylvie was the first to speak up.
“You’re… the Elemental that I summoned? “ Sylvie asked, uncertain, as she placed her left hand on her upper right arm.
Observing Sylvie’s action, the man lifted his left arms sleeve, as an almost translucent rune became visible. With a pondering gaze that switched between his left arm and Sylvie’s right, a look of certainty appeared.
“Seems like that’s the case. This is pretty interesting. “ the man replied, nodding.
At his reply, a look of excitement appeared in Sylvie’s eyes. ‘It actually worked!... But why do I also have a rune?’
Listening in on their conversation, Valcor and Ashuen had faces full of surprise. ‘An Elemental Summon?’
“What’s your name? If you’re an elemental, why is it that you look human? “ Sylvie asked.
“No, no, how about you answer my questions first, as you’re the one who dragged me here. “ the man shook his head.
‘What!?’ The same thought occurred to Sylvie and her parents.
“Y-You’re not bound by the summoning? “ Sylvie asked, bewildered.
Witnessing their expressions, the man seemed confused, before looking at his arm.
“Oh, so that’s what this rune is for. I’m supposed to be a servant or something similar? Makes sense. “ the man rubbed the rune on his arm.
“Hahahahaha. Bound? Not even the heavens can bind master. “ speaking up for the first time, the woman laughed melodiously as if she heard the funniest joke in the world.
He shook his head helplessly when he heard her.
‘Well, I guess I’ll just speak first.’ he murmured.
“I'm Nox, and this woman besides me is Nyx. Although I’m not under your control, you did manage to summon me. You and I both have these runes on our arms, so I'll consider it as Fate. As such, I can give you two choices. “ Nox spoke seriously.
“One, you come with Nyx and I, as we won’t be staying in one place. Two, you don’t, we forget everything that happened here, and we go our separate ways.I follow no one, and I am no one’s servant nor attendant, so these are the only options. “
Nox looked at Sylvie with a serious expression, expecting her to decline. He didn’t want anyone else to join them, but these choices were more of a whim.
Observing Nox and gazing into his piercing grey eyes, Sylvie felt something she’d never experienced before, as her heart palpitated and her heartbeat slightly increased. ‘Is… is this…’ she thought, unable to control herself for a moment. Taking a deep breath, she replied resolutely.
“Okay, I’ll come with you. “
‘……what?’ it was Nox’s turn to be dumbfounded. Valcor had the same exact expression. Why the hell would you agree so easily with someone you just met? This is traveling together! Isn’t this a bit ridiculous?

Standing by his side, Nyx was curiously watching this play out, intently appraising Sylvie. Hearing her response, Nyx smirked, gaining an appreciation for Sylvie and thinking ‘This is the one thing you can’t escape from, master.’
Next to Valcor, Ashuen unexpectedly also smiled.
“Are you… serious? Although you summoned me, you know that I’m not under your control. I’m not some weakling, and it’s clear you’re not that powerful.“ Nox said, puzzled, before his gaze abruptly turned sharp.
Within a blink, Nox arrived in front of Sylvie. Placing the side of his hand on her neck. Killing intent flowing out of him like a flood, a cold and murderous aura suffused the surroundings.
“You don’t know how I am. If at any point I want to kill you, no one can stop me. “ Nox threatened in an emotionless voice.
When Valcor saw this scene, his anger almost exploded outwards. Even if he dies, he’ll prevent that.
A sharp pain suddenly attacking his side, Valcor turned his head and looked at Ashuen in confusion.
‘Calm down you idiot. Do you really believe your intuition is better than mine? If I’m not nervous, then you shouldn’t be either.’ Ashuen rebuked him in irritation.
Lowering his head in defeat, Valcor settled down and only observed. He had complete trust in his wife’s judgement. It was never wrong before, and it won’t be now.
Nox and Sylvie now only a foot apart, Sylvie noticed he was a few inches taller. Although he had a serious and cold expression, gazing into his piercing grey eyes, even with his hand on her neck and that killing intent directed at her, she oddly felt at peace, as a wide smile suddenly blossomed on her face.
“I’m the most serious I’ve been in my entire life. “ Sylvie expressed in a sweet voice.
“Although no one can stop you, I know you won’t hurt me. “
Sylvie was staring at Nox, and he was doing the same.
Wearing a fitting white robe with black leggings and boots, it looked like something a mage would wear. Along with her long, light blue hair with small white horns poking through the top, she looked very dainty and pure. It was a good contrast to Nyx’s shapely figure and coquettish demeanor.
Being in such close proximity, when he witnessed that smile and gazed into her beautiful, emerald green eyes, Nox’s entire body briefly froze.
*sigh*
Nox sighed. His killing intent instantly dissipating, he removed his hand from Sylvie’s neck. It was always said that the eyes are the windows to a person’s souls. He was only trying to scare her, but it seems that it caused the opposite effect.
Today, too many things happened. Although all his experiences and memories that came after the incident still lingered, he was mostly back to his old self that had only lived for several hundred years.
Inwardly, Nox now felt even more grateful towards Lings elder sister, Elise. She suggested coming to Archaeos, and with Nyx’s push, the energy she planted in his mind became the catalyst that initiated his ‘restoration’. If that never happened, who knew how long it would take for him to truly ‘feel’ again.
‘Is she part of my fate?… or was it just my imagination? Whatever, I’ll just continue going with the flow.’ Nox pondered as he recalled his own reaction.
Movement suddenly occurring by his side, Nyx popped up and whispered with a taunting smirk.
‘Oh, master, how are you? Feeling frustrated?’
‘….’ Nox ignored Nyx’s taunting.
“Fine. I always keep my word. “ Nox said helplessly. To meet someone like Sylvie was too unexpected, but he didn’t mind her joining them anymore.
“Hehe, I’m Sylvie Ragnarr, and those are my parents. “ Sylvie giggled and enthusiastically introduced herself as she pointed towards the two people standing on the sidelines.
As they witnessed the scene play out, Valcor looked relieved while Ashuen smiled.
Walking up to Nox and Nyx, they could finally speak normally.
“Forgive our rude reception, I’m Ashuen and this is my husband, Valcor. “ Ashuen greeted apologetically.
“Your presences startled us, as this is in the middle of the city, furthermore, inside our home. “
“Yes, apologies. Thankfully, my wife prevented me from acting rashly. This is our estate, and she’s my daughter, so I’m sure you could understand. “ Valcor expressed honestly. Although he had a tough exterior, he was very straightforward.
‘Interesting parents.’ Nox thought, expecting that they would act very differently.
Inspecting them, Valcor was a tall and burly middle-aged man with brown hair and a bushy beard, with long grey horns poking out from the top of his head.
Ashuen had dark blue hair with short white horns, and emerald green eyes. Middle-aged as well, she was still very beautiful. Although Sylvie had light blue hair, she clearly took after her mother.
“It’s fine. Strangers appearing out of nowhere, especially where a loved one is, I would have thought the same in your position. “ Nox responded in understanding.
“To reintroduce ourselves, my name is Nox Ferrum, an… Elemental. This is Nyx, my comp-“ Nox stated amicably as he got interrupted.
“FIANCE! “ Nyx interjected without shame as she glared at Nox.
“…fiancé. “ Nox didn’t want to bother.
Valcor and Ashuen seemed to be expecting that, but Sylvie looked on in shock.
‘She’s… his fiancé?’ Sylvie muttered, as a hint of loss hit her heart.
Gazing forward, Nyx suddenly took up her vision and appeared in front of her. Surprised, Nyx whispered something in her ear.
“W-w-w-w-what!? “ Sylvie cried out as she became flustered.
“Hehe “ Nyx giggled in delight from her reaction.
Looking away from Sylvie, Nyx moved her gaze to Ashuen who was staring at her. Observing each other, they both nodded and smiled, seemingly thinking the same thing… for people who just met, it was very mysterious.
Watching this scene, Nox started to develop a headache.
‘The hell, how is this logical?’ he thought, at a loss.
Walking up to him, Valcor placed his heavy hand on Nox’s shoulder.
“It seems that no matter the place, you will find people with things in common… Life can be difficult. “ Valcor looked Nox in the eyes, as a mutual understanding was formed.
“…Very true.“ Nox nodded, as he gained some respect for Valcor. Even if it’s their own family, it was impressive for someone to place so much trust in them.
Nox felt Valcor's vigilance and anger earlier, but he put it all away because of his wife and daughters’ judgement, now treating him, whom had suddenly appeared in his home and just met, with a type of friendship. Even after Nyx leaked out her depths and he showed killing intent, they still arrived at this point.
Nox kept this in his heart. No matter how old you are, you can always learn something new.
“Nox, Nyx, we’ll leave you here with Sylvie while we prepare your lodgings. You two just appeared in a foreign land, so I’m sure you have many questions, and Sylvie can help you with that. “ Ashuen said.
“Come Valcor, let’s go back, we also need to prepare for later.“ Ashuen gestured.
Looking Nox in the eyes with meaning, he turned to his wife and nodded, as they both walked out of the garden.
Watching them leave, only Nox, Nyx, and Sylvie remained in the garden.
‘What, him too? Ugh… would I also be that way when the time comes?’ Nox thought about Valcor's meaningful look, as well as Stella, who’s somewhere out there in this world.
“A-alright, let’s sit over at that pavilion. You must have a lot of questions. “ Sylvie gestured towards a white pavilion in the distance, still a bit flustered.
“Right. “ Nox replied, following Sylvie with Nyx in tow. The pavilion was a bit of a ways away.
On their way to the pavilion, Nox realized he never got the chance to take in the scenery.
The garden was very large and beautiful. Stone walkways running throughout, the area was filled with a myriad of flowers and lush trees. Surprisingly, some of the trees bore fruit.
In a few random places, there were small artificial ponds with colorful fish swimming about. The water was very clear, with no impurities or algae on the surface. Whoever oversaw the garden, took very good care of it.
A short while later, the group finally arrived at the pavilion. Gesturing for Nox and Nyx to have a seat at the table, Sylvie was about to start speaking, as a maid suddenly appeared carrying a tray with tea and what appeared to be sweets.
‘That was fast. I’m still not sure about gauging strength right now, but she’s probably not weak. And considering how large the garden is, Sylvie’s family must be pretty powerful.‘ Nox thought as he glanced at the maid.
“Second young miss, Sir Nox, Lady Nyx, Lord and Madam tasked me to deliver tea and snacks. “ the young maid said with a professional aura, placing the tray down and bowing.
“Thank you, Mel. “ Sylvie thanked the maid.
“Of course, second young miss. I will now take my leave. “ bowing once more, the maid, Mel, left as swiftly as she arrived.
Taking a good look at what was on the tray, Nox and Nyx’s eyes glittered, although Nyx seemed a lot more enthusiastic.
“Have some, they’re for the both of you after all. “ Sylvie giggled at their expressions.
Not even replying, Nyx excitedly grabbed the tea cup. When she picked it up, she fumbled a bit and appeared very unnatural, but quickly held it elegantly, much like a noble would.
‘Oh yeah, she just got a body and hasn’t held anything like that before. ’ Nox thought when he saw Nyx’s unnatural movements, but he wasn’t surprised to see her adapt so fast.
Reminiscing a bit, they met many nobles over the years and he had to adapt to a multitude of situations. With such a long life and all the knowledge and experience that came with it, it made sense that she could adapt easily. Not to mention that at their power, it was easy to turn knowledge into practice.
Not feeling awkward in the slightest, Nyx had a sip of tea.
“Mmmm, it’s so good! “ Nyx looked very excited.
“Master, here, you eat the first sweet.“ Nyx said slyly and picked one up.
“I will in a se-“ without getting the chance to finish, Nyx stuffed the sweet shaped like a cake into his mouth.
Chewing it, Nox was enraptured by the taste. It was white on the outside, but the inside had chocolate. It was fantastic. Savoring it, he was filled with praise for the baker.
“That was really good. “ Nox said emotionally after he finished eating it.
“Was it? Let me try” Nyx then took one of them for herself.
“Hold on, what the hell Nyx! I could’ve grabbed one myself. “ Nox feigned displeasure, but glee from the cake couldn’t be hidden.
He might get annoyed sometimes, but it was very difficult for those he cared about to evoke any real negative emotions from him. Thinking about it now, Nox began to feel that he was an enabler.
Watching the antics of the two, Sylvie appeared in a daze. Noticing her, Nyx moved and whispered into Sylvie’s ear.
‘Don’t worry, remember what I said; master will also eventually be yours, and you can do these things as well. I’ll tell you a secret: Master actually has many weaknesses, and sweets are one of them!’ Nyx reassured and advised her.
Sylvie’s face flushed once more from Nyx’s words, but determination surfaced in her eyes.
Viewing Sylvie’s eyes, Nyx smiled. Other than the chance to gain a body, Elise told her a few secrets Archaeos holds, and one of them is related to Fate.
Fates normally only guides one to certain events or occurrences, but there’s one exception; soul fates. This fate is only made when two or more souls have a naturally strong connection with one another, and it’s not something artificially created.
This knowledge is why Nyx is more insightful than Nox regarding these things. Although, Nyx knows that Nox could feel the existence of any fate if he focused specifically on that, such as when they first arrived, but now he decided to just let fate do what it wants. This was a new experience and a type of reset for him, so whether it led to good or bad, it didn’t really matter.
“Okay, ask away. We have a few hours before my birthday banquet. “ Sylvie said after clearing her thoughts.
“Oh, it’s your birthday today? Happy birthday. “ Nox expressed with a smile.
Hearing that it’s Sylvie’s birthday, Nyx beamed.
“Yes, congratulations! Birthdays are always nice. How old are you today? “ Nyx asked with enthusiasm.
“Thank you. “ Sylvie expressed happily.
“I’m 100 today. I’m not really that old, but it’s significant for us Demons. “
“Umm...if you don’t mind me asking, how old are you two… You don’t have to answer, I was only curious. “ Sylvie asked curiously.
Nox froze, as a wry smile appeared on his face. Looking back at his life on Earth, living until 100 was incredible, so, in his eyes, how could that be young? But when remembering his own age and those on Tian, it really was inconceivable.
As for Nyx, her expression actually turned severe.
“Are you sure you really want to know? You might look at us differently. “ Nyx specifically asked this after noticing Nox. She saw his memories, so it must have affected him regarding people learning their ages.
Observing Nox and Nyx, Sylvie became startled. She didn’t expect them to react this way.
“If you’re willing. “ Sylvie nodded seriously.
Gazing at Sylvie, Nox felt awkward.
“Master, what do you say? “ Nyx looked towards Nox.
*Sigh*
“Go ahead. “ Nox sighed.
“If we’re going to travel together, maybe it’s best to know a few things about us. “
Getting his assent, Nyx looked directly into Sylvie’s eyes; there was no hesitation.
“I’m not sure of my exact age, but I’m around 19,000 years old. As for master, he is currently 7,542. “ Nyx voiced directly.
Although determined, Sylvie was shocked, especially by Nyx’s age. It was rare to meet people their age, especially ones who still had their younger appearance and demeanor.
Actually, Nox was surprised as well.
“Nyx, you’re 19,000 years old? I never knew… “ Nox realized that he never asked her how long she had been a weapon spirit before he found her.
“Hehehe, well, master, you had never asked me. Actually, I only started counting a few hundred years after that day. 19,000 is only my guess. “ Nyx nodded.
“Am I too old for you now? Are you going to leave me? “ Nyx’s expression turned downcast, as she feigned heartbreak.
“Don’t joke around like that. Even if you were a million years old, it wouldn’t matter to me. “ Nox replied seriously.
Listening to their conversation, Sylvie became curious from what Nyx said, but she buried it when Nyx looked at her with a meaningful smile. Viewing Nox’s sincerity, she became determined.
“Age doesn’t matter!” Sylvie voiced loudly, causing Nox to silently gaze at her, while Nyx looked on with a smile.
“All races have different lifespans and mature differently. For normal humans, those in their 40s are considered middle aged, but an elf might need to be over 10,000 years old to be considered middle aged. This only includes the normal ones, and not the stronger ones whose lives have been enhanced by mana and the elements. “
“Your ages don’t change how I view you. The numbers don’t matter, I was only curious, so you didn’t need to worry about it. As far as I’m concerned, we might as well be close to the same age. The majority of races and beings also would feel the same.“ Sylvie expressed passionately, looking briefly at Nyx and then locking gazes with Nox.
Listening to Sylvie, Nox remembered something he had forgotten today. When he was on Tian, a lot of beings were immortal, therefore the age gaps were ridiculously large. Some had a difference of hundreds of thousands or even millions of years. How you were treated always depended on your demeanor and power. After all, how could you truly interact and form relationships with others if you thought otherwise, treating them based on the numbers?
Only after regaining his memories of Earth, did he start to think about age; mainly about his and Nyx’s, compared to others. What people would think when they learned about them.
But these worlds aren’t like Earth. The limits aren’t just around 100 years old. The minds of those who live longer also don’t change much. If it did, how could you handle such a long life?
‘She’s right. It looks like the memory merger with my life on Earth affected me in more ways than one. I had never even thought like that before. ‘ Nox reflected on himself.
“Heh, well said. Age is indeed only a number. Thanks, your perspective helped remind me of that. “ Nox looked at Sylvie with a thankful expression. Who knew how long he’d have been hung up on his age if she didn’t say anything.
“I’m only saying what I feel. “ Sylvie beamed when she heard Nox.
“Alright, Sylvie, let’s move on for once. Where is this? Oh, and you mentioned Demon before. What does that mean? “ Nox asked curiously.
Although he knew what Demons were from his memories, this was still an entirely new world. How could he know any of the specifics?
As Sylvie gazed at the two, Nyx also had a curious expression.
“You don’t know what Demons are? “ Sylvie looked at them oddly.
“Nyx and I come from a distant and isolated land. It feels very different here, so I can tell this place is not just a small distance away. Don’t worry, though, we wanted to leave at some point anyway. “ Nox came up with something on the spot. How could he just say that they came from another universe?
“Oh, that makes sense. I’m sorry... Because this situation isn’t normal, I didn’t realize at first that the summoning took you away from your home... “ Sylvie expressed regretfully.
“Like I said, don’t worry about it. Nyx and I wanted to leave at some point, so you did us a favor. “ Nox consoled.
Although a bit of lie because they came from another universe, this was a lot better than walking blindly around some forest, knowing absolutely nothing about the world. Not to mention meeting someone like Sylvie. It was a surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one.
“Thank you, I’m glad. “ Sylvie said in relief. Normal elementals choose to mark themselves for summoning, so it felt horrible to force someone.
“Well, welcome to my birthplace, the Kingdom of Razzir! Razzir is also known as the Demon Kingdom. The city we’re in is called Grenir, one of the kingdom’s major cities, and this is my home. “ Sylvie said enthusiastically, proud of her origin.
“As for Demons, we are considered as one of the naturally long-lived races. Compared to most other races, we have a larger mana pool and higher affinities to elements, especially Dark magic, which is what we’re known for. “
Nox reaffirmed his assumptions after listening to Sylvie, while sending his thoughts to Nyx at the same time. During this period of time, Nox had subconsciously tried to speak with Nyx, mentally, as that was second nature on Tian, and it surprisingly still worked.
‘It was as I thought. Because she mentioned Dark magic, and the fact I’m now an Elemental and you’re a Dragon, that must mean mana is what we felt in the air, and the elements are a part of it. It seems that the elements are pretty much the same as Tian, so Fire, Water, Wind and the others must exist. Other than Demons, she also mentioned Elves. If they also exist, that means many others should as well…Interesting. ‘
‘Yes, master, this appears to be the case. I wonder what we can do.’ Nyx agreed and became curious about their own abilities.
‘Me too. They should have a library here, so maybe we can find some more general knowledge information, as well as how to use mana. It’s very different compared to Qi because I can’t feel any meridians or something similar we can use to channel it. We need to learn how to control it as soon as possible!’ Nox set a plan of action.
His new body was very strong, but he relied on Qi for over 7,000 years. He felt vulnerable not being able to use his own energy. It felt as if you were missing all your limbs. It wasn’t a pleasant feeling.
“I see, that’s good to know. Well, your home seems very nice. “ Nox complimented.
“And this garden, it’s very well taken care of. “
“Yes, it is! I always love coming here, as it’s very relaxing. The maid you saw earlier, Mel, is also the caretaker of the garden. She isn’t a regular maid, she’s like family. “ Sylvie expressed earnestly.
‘Sylvie and her family definitely must not be typical nobles; they’re too down to earth and honest. Are they a military family?’ Nox thought about Sylvie and her father and mother’s demeanors.
The vast majority of nobles that Nox met on Tian that are like this, were from military clans. They were always straightforward and honorable. They fought for their country and land, and weren’t out for money and prestige. It was only something second hand that came from their merits.
“You should tell her I said she does a wonderful job. I know you mentioned a few hours until your birthday banquet, so do you think you could point Nyx and I to a library? I don’t want you to sit here and answer the many questions we have. “ Nox inquired.
“I don’t mind answering any questions, but ok. We have a big library here in our home. My mother and father collect a lot of books, and my brother also likes to collect them. I’m sure you can find whatever you need. “ Sylvie replied
“That would be a big help, thanks. “ Nox expressed. Nyx and he needed to get more information, and the System was currently worthless.
“Let’s go, I’ll take you two there. “ Sylvie smiled.
