《The Story of a Dreamer》Library

"You're new to Konoha?" Boruto asked with a big smile as he stared at Laiz in interest.
"Mhmm" Laiz hummed with a small smile, appreciating his energetic accompany.
"Then, I'll show you around!"
Laiz laughed softly as he stared into Boruto.
"I'd appreciate it, Boruto"
With that, Boruto started guiding and introducing Laiz to the main parts of Konoha. Which with Laiz's nature, he highly enjoyed.
With Boruto's help, Laiz was able to familiarize himself to the most meaningful and popular places of Konoha.
During this time, they happened to meet up with one of Boruto's friend.
She had short black hair with red glasses, a red sleeveless dress that went just below her hip, normal ninja pants and black arm tights.
'She should be.. Sarada, one of the last uchihas' Laiz quickly recognized the girl, now named Sarada.
"Boruto!" Sarada ran to Boruto, waving her fist in the air.
She stopped a small distance away from crashing into Boruto, grabbed his shoulders and shook him wildly as she demanded the reason to why he painted Naruto's statue.
"S-stop, it's not like my old man cares anyway!" Boruto struggled to get free and speak from Sarada's strong grip.
Laiz could only stand aside and smile wryly at the two.
Sarada didn't seem to have liked the answer which led to the loud arguments between the two.
"Uhmm Boruto, is that your girlfriend?" Laiz finally decided to intervene, directing a question to Boruto with his usual smile.
"Her?! My girlfriend?!" Boruto pointed his hands at Sarada as he shouted towards Laiz, outraged yet blushing at the idea.
"Shut up! Like any one would want to be with you!" Sarada shot back at Boruto's insult.
The two bashed their heads together, each growling threateningly.
'It's more cute than threatening though' thought Laiz
Laiz's smile widened.
"Alright, alright. I was just joking" Laiz seperated the two with a lot of effort required.
"It's not funny!" The two screamed at Laiz
"Sorry, sorry" Laiz said with his usual smile, not meaning it at all.
Before the two could call that out, they were forced to look above.
The clouds took a darker tone without their notice as they felt drops of water land on their bodies softly.
...
"Who are you? And why are you with this idiot?" Sarada asked Laiz as she pointed at Boruto blankly.

The three were currently inside a fast food restaurant. Boruto and Sarada sat next to each other, while Laiz sat across them
"I'm Laiz. Boruto was just guiding me" Laiz explained as they both ignored the outraged Boruto.
"Guiding?" Sarada asked
"Hmhh, I'm new to Konoha" Laiz cleared up her confusion.
"Whe-" Sarada question was beaten by Boruto
Sarada glared at Boruto.
"Big sister, where are you from anyway?" Boruto seemed to have calmed down to his usual energy as he asked Laiz an important question.
'Big sister? Is that formality?' Laiz considered his gender confusion as normal but was confused by the new title, luckily the surprise wasn't able to keep him from answering.
"I'm from another world" Laiz stated blatantly.
"..." The two stared at Laiz blankly,
"Now you guys are probably wondering what type of world mine was right? Well," Laiz stared outside with a nostalgic expression
"..It's a lot sim-"
"We're wondering about your health!" The two shouted across the table in unison, interrupting Laiz's casual story.
"It's fine if you don't believe me.. You can just say i'm far from here" Laiz smiled towards them, of course they wouldn't believe him. Well, it just makes it funnier for next time.
".. Right" Was all the two could say
"Anyway, looks like the guidance stops here Boruto" Laiz said as he pointed towards the weather.
"You're right.." Said Boruto
"I actually have somewhere to go so, i'll see you two next time" With that, Laiz got up and starts heading to his original destination.
"See ya!" "Bye" The two stood up with Laiz and waved goodbye, before heading the opposite direction while arguing with each other.
Laiz couldn't help but smile at the two.

"..."
'Looks like things are gonna change' Thought Laiz nonchantly as he looked ahead, smiling.
...
In the corner of a packed library was someone in a dark blue shirt that seemed too large for 'her' frame and shorts that barely reached the middle of her thighs.
After seperating with Boruto and Sarada, Laiz had come across a clothing store which fortunately reminded him of his current clothes. Not only did it look a bit out of place in this world, it was also starting to develop a bad oder from his travels.

After Laiz discarded his old clothes and bought a new one, he had straight away headed to to the library.
Unfortunately, he was restricted from the upper floors of the Library which was reserved for shinobis and academy students.
Laiz had been upset for that restriction. Which didn't last long.
'I feel like slaping myself for not realizing this sooner'
Laiz was scanning the upper floor through his elemental senses. With that, he was able to read the restricted books freely.
He couldn't help but feel depressed at wasting his time reading all the books on this floor. It was clearly meant to be for normal civilians, thus the lack of chakra oriented subjects or even depth full books of the shinobi history.
'Memorizing all this will take some time though..' As there were many floors above him, it would most likely take him a month to memorize all its content. He wished there were a more efficient way of storing these knowledge.
As if the system could read his mind, Laiz heard a ding
There, on the corner of his eye was an exclamation mark. Laiz's eye flashed, hoping for something to save him from the troublesome phase of memorization.
Laiz opened the panel in anticipation,
- - - - - - - -
Requirements met!
* Wisdom - 80
* Intelligence - 50
* Consumed a thousand books
Host has unlocked the 'Library' function.
- This function allows the host to freely store any books, scrolls, or tablets in a world located in your consciousness
Would host like to unlock this feature?
(Y) (N)
- - - - - - - -
Laiz smirked at the big reward as he struggled not to make a scene in the packed yet civilized library.
It was just as he expected!
Laiz took some time to calm himself before scanning his surrounding.
With the place clear, Laiz tapped yes.
The panel changed into a process bar starting from one. The bar quickly approached 50 percent before Laiz could input his thoughts and reached 100 percent a few seconds afterwards.
Laiz didn't even need to search his menu panel as he felt a change occur inside his consciousness.
Inside his head, he could feel a vast world with traces of time and history.
Instinctively, he felt a strong connection towards this space and accessed it despite that lack of knowledge how.
Laiz felt his perceptions leaving him as darkness overpowered him slowly.
- - - - - - - -
Old data found!
May host like to open 'Oswald's Library'?
(Y) (N)
- - - - - - - -
With no room for thoughts and emotions, Laiz quickly tapped yes.
A bright flash of light quickly assaulted Laiz no long after. Forcing him to cover his painful eyes.
Thankfully, the pain resided after a few seconds.
With his eyes fully functioning he was gifted with the sight of countless books, scrolls and tablets each in its respective shelves that seemed to reach the skies had it not been for the equally tall glass and wooden ceiling above.
Laiz kept looking around dumbly, speechless at the sight.
He could feel his admiration rising once more as he stared ahead.
The shelves were aligned straightly and went as far as Laiz could see. On the sides were pillars with ancient symbols and patterns, while the windows above and side illuminated all each pillar and shelves.
Forcing Laiz to further gape at the branches and vines that grew leaves and flowers attached to the shelves and pillars, signifying its old age.
Unconciously, Laiz walked forward slowly as he looked at every detail around him.
'This is Oswald's library..?' It took a lot of effort to ignore the immense feelings of respect and admiration towards not only the Library but at Oswald as well.
Laiz couldn't imagine the time required to collect even a quarter of these books. And he had a feeling this was just the tip of the iceberg.
Despite the distance from his previous spot, he still could not see the end of the path ahead. Seeing this, Laiz stopped and settled to just search the books close to him. He considered exploring the rest later.
