--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lucifer woke at the break of dawn, slipping on his fluffy slippers, he got of his bed, and he wobbled a bit as he stood.
Going to the bathroom, he followed his daily routine; first he took a bath and also brushed his teeth in the shower. While, showering he went over last night`s events, going through his plans for today. Changing into a fresh pair of clothes, he left the shower. Snuff was spread out on the bed, drooling onto the pillows.
He glanced at his wrists, the shackles which Aunt Hilda had given him before were still intact onto wrists. He reactivated them again, with a new set of engravings. The pressure on his body would increase by one kg every time he got used to the weights. Snuff lazily got out of his bed, staggering while walking towards me.
“Master, what are we going to do today”, Snuff said while letting out a yawn
Getting out of the room, they both quietly tip toed down the stairs, not wanting to wake anyone. It was 5 am in the morning and no one in the mansion was still awake yet. Getting out of the mansion, he started jogging to the stables. Herald was sleeping in his cabin, beside the stables. Gently tapping on the rickety wooden doors, he waited for Herald to open them. After, a few minutes, the door opened and herald walked out.
“Brat, Why are you here again?” herald was not happy to be woken up this early.
“He…Herald I want to ride the horses again”
“Huh, all right then”
Herald proceeded into the stables and then returned with a black stallion, handing its reins to him. Lucifer had grown a few centimeters in height after the dungeon incident. Now, he could easily mount the stallion, with no problems. Snuff hugged him tightly when they rode the stallion, his paws clutching at Lucifers small waist. Snuff, tongue was constantly out of his mouth as they rode.

“Is this a bear or a child”, Lucifer thought to himself
The purpose of this ride was so that, he could use Snuffs` ability to verify if there were any ingredients nearby and at the same time increasing his proficiency at horse riding. After, an hour and a half they still did not detect any ingredients in the garden.
*Ding*
Skill Name:Skill Rank:Skill Level:Skill Experience:Horse RidingBeginner322%Effects:
Increased command over the horse.
Stability increases after each level up.
He was however not disappointed, he had expected this result. He had also calculated the time needed to increase his skills proficiency in his Mind Palace.
The sun was completely up now, dropping of the stallion at the stable. He proceeded back to the mansion along the way he was constantly planning on how to get to the place he desired.
Entering the mansion, he headed off to the hall. Food was already set up by the servants. Looking around, he was not the first to arrive, his cousin Malcolm, Aunt Hilda`s son was seated at the table, gobbling his food furiously, he was surprised at Avaritia`s sudden appearance. He quickly extended his arm sleeves so that they would cover his wrists, but
Lucifer had instantly seen the red marks on them. Malcolm seemed to be in pain, as every movement he did cause his to
gasp. Quickly, devouring his food, Malcolm left the hall.
Aunt Hilda came down as soon as Malcolm left. Before sitting in her place, Aunt Hilda gave him a hug.
“Darling, how was your sleep”, Aunt Hilda said
“It was nice”, he flashed an innocent smile
Snuff was also seated at the table, looking at the food before, saliva dripped out of the corners of his mouth. The house was very empty. Most, of the time it was just him and Aunt Hilda. Mother had left for somewhere; Father was trading in some other continent. It seemed as if his parents didn`t care much about. Not that it mattered; he just wondered if Human parents should act like that.

“He respected Aunt Hilda more than his parents, she was more of a mother figure to him”, he thought“. Plus she was straightforward and had a wild nature.
He, however, needed information right now and lots of it. Knowledge is power as they say. Furthermore, he needed information on Physique alteration as the human structure was very complex he had to know the various parts of the body. In his Mind palace, he had constructed about 25 % of the human model; he needed more books if he wanted to complete the rest of it.
“Aunt Hilda, can we go to Casaria”, because I have never gone out” he asked
“Sure darling, get ready in 30 minute and we will leave”
Quickly devouring his food, he dashed off into his bedroom to get ready. Soon after, he entered into the carriage with Snuff which stood in front of the mansion. The capital was about 1500 km away. The journey progressed slowly, they went past several villages, and he caught sight of weird animals which were domesticated on the farms, they also helped the farmers while they were working. He quickly stored their images in his mind palace. The rest of journey was boring, nothing new to see, so he took a nap along with Snuff.
He woke up to the sounds, of people arguing, merchants screaming to sell their wares and the laughter of children. He looked out of the carriage; he saw taverns, inns, forges lined side by side. Their carriage came to a halt, as he got out of the carriage, many people started to stare, ladies especially, some fainted. He wondered why they were staring at him; maybe it was because of Aunt Hilda. The stares wouldn`t stop but rather increased, he noticed more and more women started following him. Snuff was walking alongside him.
What he didn`t know was that, he didn`t look like a 5 year old but rather a 9 year old, his height was really tall for his age. Furthermore, his doll like features with the combination of his silver hair made him look like an angel. His royal purple eyes made him drop dead handsome, he looked even better than the elves which were hailed as the most gorgeous race. His graceful way of walking added augmented his otherworldly looks. He however, didn`t know this because he hadn`t interacted much with the outside world.
“Aunt Hilda, why are they looking at us like that”, he asked her
“It`s because of your bear”, Aunt Hilda lied
“So, Avaritia dear where would you like to go”, She asked
“The library”, he said
Along the way Aunt Hilda glared at anyone who ogled at but no matter how much she glared the women would still follow them.
“Avaritia is going to be a handful in the future, if he is like this right now”, She muttered.
She suddenly grabbed Lucifer by the waist with Snuff; she could no longer bear women having lewd thoughts about her nephew.
“I am the only one permitted to have such thoughts about him”, she sneered before teleporting
They materialized right in front of the library; the building was huge round like a colosseum and 17 storeys high. As they entered, the building, the interiors were illuminated by green torches, which were latched onto walls, piles of shelf’s surrounded the. The building had about 12 floors, and each of the floors had shelf’s s which were assigned numbers.
