"Ohh... Don't worry about your cat. He was busy eating over there."
Allan assured her as he pointed his finger at the corner. There they saw Nero busy pigging out.
[Hi there, little lass. I'm over here. Don't worry about me. I am definitely having fun here.]
"Yeah sure, you are.."
Audrey sneered when she realized that her worry is for nothing. Because apparently, Nero was having the time of his life.
"What happened back there?? Why did I pass out???"
Since it was Nero who was with her at that time, then it would be best to ask him about what happened.
Instead of asking her other friends, who most likely knew nothing next to what has actually happened.
[Oh yeah, about that. I also find it weird. Because as soon as you touched the lady, I also felt some connection and a splitting headache assaulted me, which is definitely not normal."
"Why do you think that it is not normal?"
<But of course, no matter how frustrated she was about it, Audrey knew that she cannot tell Professor Sonny what was .running in her mind'Ohh.. If I could just give you an earful! I'll going to give you a piece of my mind. HAIXT!!!'Since Audrey was already dismissed by Professor Sonny, then she no longer has any reason to stay.So even though she still can't understand what's going on in Professor Sonny's mind for asking her to come to his office, she had no other choice but to leave."Oh yeah, by the way. Tell your friend to come here tomorrow morning so I can check what I can do for his spiritual beast."Professor Sonny added before Audrey could step out of the room."Sure thing, Professor Sonny."She said before closing the door behind her.. Then she hurriedly made her way to the boy's dormitory.When she arrived at their dorm she saw that her friends were all gathered in the door waiting for her arri
Audrey knew well enough that this morning really means a lot to Niccoli and of course she was there to support him on it.When they finally spotted the familiar Stairs of Will, Niccoli's smile turn even brighter. he exhaled one large mouthful of turbid air before he headed to the stairs.Audrey and Niccoli hurriedly ascended at the Stairs of Will. When they finally reached the top of the stairs, they saw the familiar gallery-like hall where Professor Sonny's office was hidden.There they met the same old portrait of the beautiful maiden that used to bring them in the real hallway that leads to Professor Sonny's office.This time, Nero managed to get a good look at the woman in the portrait.When he and the other party's eyes met, he felt the same feeling of familiarity that he felt before when he first saw the portrait.It feels like he had met the girl in the portrait before. It just that he can't recall when exactly it happen
As soon as they stepped out of Professor Sonny's office, sadness clouded in Niccoli's feature."It's going to be okay, Niccoli. Just look at the bright side. You will going to see Monami again, fully unconscious in the near future."Audrey said as she gave her friend another pat on his shoulder.Niccoli gave her a smile in return.When they went back to the boy's dormitory, they saw that their other dormmates were all wide awake now."Where did you guys go without us???""Right. When we wake up, you two were no longer to be seen."Allan and Steve as soon as they saw Niccoli and Andrew (Audrey) coming back together."We went to Professor Sonny's office to bring Luna."Audrey was the one who explained their situation. It's normal for their other friends to look. for them.Since they usually wake up around the same time. That is why when they realized that the two were missing, they immediately find it
Going to the section located at the far-end corner of the library, Audrey soon arrived at the section where the school records were being kept. It looks exactly just like how it looked before when they first came to this part of the library. This section still looks desolated and abandoned as ever. Thick dust still cloaked the covers of the books that were left unattended in the bookshelves. Although it was still daytime right now, there is barely any sunlight coming on this part of the library. As a matter of fact, if not because of the artificial light coming from crystal pearls that illuminated the area, the place will be dark.Since she was intending on checking all of the books on the shelves, Audrey started picking up the books, section by section."Nero, help me to look for information at these books."She said as she put a pile of books before her cat.As soon as she put down the books at the table, a cloud of dust raised in the air.'C
For more than an hour or so, only the sound of page-turning can be heard in that isolated section of the library. Even the usually talkative, Nero is silent at this moment. He was skimming books after books, one after another without rest. He was too caught up in this 'book viewing' thing. To the point that he no longer noticed that his master was watching him at the side. Audrey can't help but smile as she observed how focused Nero was on what he was doing."Ohh?? I never would have imagined that you are this cute when you are serious, Nero."[I'm always cute, regardless of what I do.]Nero replied as if it was a matter of fact."So when did you start loving books this much???"Audrey can see that Nero was really serious about what he was doing. It was so rare seeing him like that so Audrey was really enjoying it.[Just today... Tsk!]There was a slight hint of annoyance in Nero' voice when he said that. It seemed that
On the other hand, Nero seemed to be savoring the moment of his victory over Charmy. Because he even paused for a while after insinuating that he found something useful."Oh, is that so? What is it then?"Audrey urged him to continue on what he was saying after a few more moments of silence.[Ehemm...]Nero first cleared his throat before continuing. But not before giving his master a 360 eye roll.Can't she see that he was busy showing off and building dominance over whose better and whose more senior between him and Charmy?It was so rare to have this kind of platform where he can show Charmy that she still has a lot of catching up to do before she could reach his level.But this master of his was grabbing him this hard to come by opportunity.. What an inconsiderate lass she was.[Alright, so I read about this on one of those books at theApothecary class section. I found this record about a sorcere
[Well, there is no such thing recorded at the books. It was only mentioned there, that 20 years ago the same sorceress that went missing all of a sudden came back at Iridos.]Nero replied with a shrug, before he continued.[No one knows where the other party stayed during those years that she went missing. Nor what happened to her or what she had done during those times]"Where is she now???"This time it was Audrey who asked that. She badly wanted to meet that sorceress.The more she heard about the other party, the more she felt that it was the same sorceress that they were looking for.She must be her mother, Delicia.The same sorceress that came back to Iridos to face the apprentice necromancer once and for all for the sake of her dear daughter.[I tried looking about it but unfortunately, I found nothing. What I told you is everything that was mentioned in the old records. There is nothing aside from that anymore.]
Meanwhile, after breaking the fourth wall for a couple of seconds, Audrey and Nero went back to where they left off.And that was pondering and organizing their thought. As well as summarizing the things that happened to them so far up to this point.Also,they were thinking about what they can do to get their next lead on the apprentice necromancer as well as for Audrey's mother who came after him.While the master and cat duo was busy extracting each and every bit of their brain cells to come up with a solution on their recent impasse, the door to their dorm opened.It was Steve who stepped in from that open door. It seemed that he was already done with his plan today, just like Audrey.When Steve saw that Andrew (Audrey) was already around, he was initially startled.He did not expect to see his friend to be back this early. He thought that he would be alone."Are you done with your plans for today? Or you haven't started deal
