"You bunch of damned bastards!!!!!!!!!!"
"Huh?!"
Elyse lifted her head, looking at the door in surprise, but she quickly shook her head and refocused on the magic book in front of her. Verna's attitude towards Jain and the others was quite terrible, which wasn't a secret anymore. At first, Elyse was still surprised by this, but later she got used to it... after all, they were dark elves.
After returning from the human settlement, Elisa released Enyo from prison and took her to a guest room. Moreover, she also got a job as the administrator of the library here. Elisa was also extremely surprised by this change in treatment and didn't know why Jain would suddenly change his mind. However, no matter what, for Elisa, being able to come out of the cold, damp, and dark dungeon was always a good thing. Although Elisa was a half-vampire, she was still human after all, not a pure-blooded vampire who liked coffins and underground caves.
As for being a librarian, Elise was not unfamiliar with this profession. She had done similar work in the Bloodstone Abbey, so it didn't take long for her to become thoroughly familiar with the environment here. Moreover, Elise also liked this job very much.
She had been fond of reading since her time at the Bloodstone Abbey, whether it was magic books, history books, or even the travelogues of bards. Elise could devour them with great relish. Reading was one of the greatest pleasures in her life. However, the collection in Black Onyx Castle was limited after all, but Jain's library was a different story altogether. Not only did it have an ocean-like collection of magic books, but Elise also discovered various secret historical records and documents, as well as illustrated guides to magical creatures that had not been seen for ages and were only mentioned in legends. There were even some secret records about the Sky God Realm and the Demon Realm, which was like Ali Baba entering the treasure trove of the Forty Thieves for Elise, leaving her dazzled and wishing she could take away all the knowledge.
What surprised Elsie even more was the library itself. She found that any book she had read and put back on the shelf would be replaced by a completely new one in the same position the next day.
Is there an endless number of books here?
For Elise, who loves books like her life, this place is simply her paradise. If she had some dissatisfaction with Jain before in the prison, now she has no opinion about Jain at all, and even if Jain wants to drive Elise out, Elise probably won't leave now.
But here, what Elise valued most was those magic books.
The library of Zhan En recorded not the magical factions that circulated on the surface, but the magic of the dark realm and the demon world. This was a completely new experience for Iris. Although her flame was entirely negative energy, making it impossible for Iris to normally use the eight major factions' magic. However, the profession of spellcaster had been passed down for so many years without becoming extinct, and naturally, they also had their own unique survival techniques. They could utilize the condensed flame to form a kind of talisman, thereby simulating the spells of other factions to a certain extent.
Of course, due to the limitations of negative energy, Yangyan explosion and other spells that completely require positive energy cannot be released. However, if it's defensive system, illusion system, or plastic energy system spells, Elise can still more or less simulate them.
The mage's attack method originated from the magic flame and ended with the magic flame, so it's better to learn and study other spells, and simulate them to increase various different combat methods for yourself. Moreover, the magic books here in Zane are all genuine products of the demon world, which record complete magic, and are completely different from those incomplete spells on the ground that have been damaged by time. As a result, Eris also became more and more fond of it, and in just a few days, she was completely absorbed in it.
It was precisely because of this that Elise didn't take Vilna's roar to heart. She had just finished reading a magic book that detailed how to sign contracts with creatures from the demon realm and summon them to the main plane by breaking through the boundaries. These things Elise had also dabbled in at the Blood-colored Cult, but the demon realm was too far away and mysterious for surface dwellers, so the records weren't very complete. However, here in Jain, it wasn't a secret. Elise was extremely intelligent, and after carefully reading through it several times, she already grasped the secrets within. She had even made up her mind to experiment with using her own magic flames to open a channel to the negative energy plane and summon demons when she had time.
"Breath..."
Closing the magic book in her hand, Eris straightened up and stretched. Unlike when she was in prison, Eris was now wearing a loose-fitting purple nightgown, with a sleeping cap on her head.
Of course, it's still hollow inside.
This outfit was also at Jen's request, and when Enyo brought it out, Jen asked her if she wanted to wear the purple pajamas or the maid uniform that showed off her legs. Opting for the lesser of two evils, Elise hesitated for half a day before choosing the purple pajamas.
But anyway, what does it mean that the lord of the castle wants me to say "mumu" from now on? Is this some kind of spell?
Thinking of this, Elise shook her head and put the magic book back on the shelf. She had already finished reading it, but she still needed some reference materials to open the negative energy interface... where could they be?
Just as Elise was about to put the magic book back on the shelf, she suddenly noticed a book lying quietly in the corner of the shelf, which was only slightly larger than her palm. Unlike other books, this book had a yellow cover, but there was no title on it. It looked mysterious and intriguing, and Elise's curiosity was piqued as she reached out to pick up the book and began to flip through its pages.
"What is this? In a quiet library, a girl's................?"
She whispered the title of the book, and Elise furrowed her brow, instinctively feeling that this was not a good thing. But somehow, she still reached out to open the book and continued reading.
The book describes the story of a girl who loves books like her life. She grew up in the library since she was young, and is fascinated by the books in the library. She likes to indulge herself in the ocean of books, savoring the joy of acquiring knowledge. The library has no other visitors except for the girl and the librarian who raised her. The girl has never left this quiet, tall and spacious library. For her, this place is everything. She lives here, works here, arranges books, and takes care of everything in the library, which brings her the greatest joy.
As for the scenes described in the book, Elise also felt the same way, and had more empathy for the heroine in the book, so she continued to read with great curiosity.
And then, the girl suddenly discovered a secret room deep in the library, where there were many books without covers. Out of curiosity, she flipped through the books and was shocked to find that they described nothing but affairs between men and women. The girl was both curious and worried about this content, as she had grown up in the library since childhood and had never been in contact with others, so she knew very little about it. However, as she read on, the girl felt her own body, which seemed to be gradually changing...
"Ugh... what's wrong with me? The things written in these books are so strange... but for some reason, they're also so captivating. I shouldn't be reading this kind of thing... if someone finds out, it'll be terrible. But in the dimly lit corner of the library, the girl can't calm her racing heart..."
With a low voice, Elise read the contents of the book, her eyes also becoming dull and unresponsive. At this moment, Elise seemed to have completely immersed herself in the world of the book, as if she was the girl born and raised in the library, hiding in the quiet corner of the library, quietly savoring the forbidden feeling.
"Ah................!!"
Alice suddenly came to, her eyes clearing once more. The dimly lit scene in front of her quickly dissipated, replaced by the familiar tall and dark bookshelves.
"What's wrong with me?"
Elsie's face turned bright red as she took a few steps back, her hands instinctively reaching down to press against her lower abdomen. She shook her head vigorously before quickly turning around and hurrying away from the bookshelf.
This is a nightmare, this must be another nightmare!
One side of her was screaming deep down inside, while another part of Elise sat back down in her chair and closed her eyes.
But even so, in her mind, everything that had just happened was still so clear and unforgettable.
