《Serpent girl Lily.》Chapter 5: The library.
Advertisement
“damn that’s stupid arrogant perverted bastard, I swear his only role in this world is to ruin my days” Aura said to herself as she walked towards the library, this time not even bothering to pay attention to the people around her.
“the kings curse you. Whose fault do you think it is that I have to isolate myself” she muttered in a small sad voice.
“it’s his damn fault I started to talk to myself in the first place!” now with a hint of anger in her voice. “but maybe I should do something about that habit of mine,” she thought downhearted.
Aura was still the center of much attention, but no one dared to walk up and talk to her. She was, after all, a Queen, and one wrong move would course them to make her many silent admirers quite hostile. That and right now she had an aura around her that did not allow people to get near her.
As she walked she couldn’t help but feel a slight regret that her day which had started off so brilliant had taken such a turn for the worse thanks for that Kaspian. “I swear to the kings that I will find a way to ruin him and his stupid plans” she swore to herself as she picked up her pace a little.
After around two hours of walking, the sun was now beginning to set. But the great building that housed the library was also ever so slowly coming into sight.
A slight smile appeared on Auras face as the building came into sight.
The great library of the endless forest sect was truly worthy of the name great. It is the largest library in the world not counting the royal library of the fairy kingdom, but that was also tens of thousands of years older than even the human race so there is no way anything could surpass it.

But to the must people, this library was still far more important. As the fairy’s held texts of mostly ancient history. While the endless forest sect’s library holds the must information about cultivation as well as the endless forest.
Here there was text containing almost everything known about cultivation. Missing only some rare secrets held by other powerful sects and clans.
From simple things such as text telling about how the human race had over ten thousand years ago, wondered why some trees were so hard they could never in a hundred years cut them down, or while some of the beasts which they normally hunted for food. could sometimes destroy entire towns overnight. leaving them powerless in the face of death.
To them learning of the essences of nature. And starting to cultivate their soul realm, earning them great strengths. And their later attempt of world conquest.
It also held all the cultivation paths belonging to the different races, while the base for theses paths is the same. The absorption of essences to strengthening the soul, the soul will then strengthen the vessel, that being the cultivators body.
And how the paths come into play as the races are not all equal in affinity with the different elements. And that the paths allow one to convert the essences into the elements best suited for the nature of one’s race. And how must races have multiple paths each allowing cultivators to differ from others, not to mention that there are tens upon tens of thousands of arts to master so all differ from other in many ways.
And there is also an incredible amount of arts stored here as well. Making this place the destination of many thousands of disciples every day.
Aura walked through the great doorway, and she headed deep into the building past many large bookcases and other disciples. And went up many floors, each time she ascended a floor the sect elder guarding it would always look up, but upon seeing her silver robe they all just went back to their cultivation without a word.

The library has a great many sections and must disciples can't enter must of them. There is a total of twelve sections and for example, the Emperor of Zakunn could only enter the first 6. Aura as a one of the sects Queens of beauty could enter a total of ten, the only ones who could enter more is the great elders and the sect leader himself. This is just one of the many privileges given to the Queens.
Reaching the sevenths section, she finally stopped going further up and instead began to look for texts on the subject of enlightenment, which she had come for.
Hours passed and the only sound that could be heard on the entire floor was Aura slowly going through texts upon texts and the ever increasingly louder noises she made. As she time and time again ended up without results.
While Aura had told prince Kaspian that she was entering an area he could not enter she had lied to him as he with the title of a prince would enter up to the eights floor, but even still she was alone as few could enter this high and even then, must would not.
As Aura as slowly beginning to lose hope for an answer, she heard a familiar voice.
“having troubles finding what you are looking for?”
Recognizing the voice Aura turned to look in the direction it came from.
“Holly! Don’t scare me like that” she said looking at the beautiful angel who was standing beside her.
“hehe I didn’t mean to scare you but you was just too focused on the book you didn’t even sense me approaching. And that’s a big no no what if it have been someone else and not me? What if it had been prince Kaspian?” she said with a great big smile on her face.
“so you have already heard about that have you?” Aura asked already knowing the answer.
“yeah I have heard all about how the fourth-ranked beauty in the sect came into a big fight with the fifth-ranked prince,” Holly said teasingly.
“is that so? Then let me ask you what is the first ranked beauty and strongest cultivator of the young generation doing here alone so late at night?” Aura replied back also in a teasing voice.
