Chapter 6

ARCHEOLOGIST

Ren checked himself on the mirror. He is wearing a black shirt with white strips and black trousers. He is now 2m height looks like an 17 years old for an age of 9.

It's a special day for Ren. He took exam a week before and got his result yesterday. Today Ren is going to be an archeologist. It took 6 months to read whole library and two exams for 4 months effort.

Not only he has learn hist of every kingdom in the world. Their raise and fall from past but also he need to learn all the different languages used by every kingdom.

Yet after all the reading, he didn't learned what he aimed for. They didn't give him codes to decipher poneglyph and Ren didn't ask to earn their trust. Maybe he will learn it today.

" Ren, are you ready? ", Ben knocked the door and asked from outside. Ren snapped out of his thoughts hearing it. He took a last look and opened the door.

Ben is wearing casual clothes rather than wearing innerwear who is grinning at him. Ren and Ben became friends despite their two generations age gap.

Ben is also an archeologist, professor and a scholar. He is the second oldest in the group as Clover being first. Ren was first shocked by respect shown by other members when Ben arrived in library.

Seeing that, Ren asked some doubts and Ben clarified them without groan. Soon Ben warmed towards him and everyone thinks he is student of Ben. Olivia was student under Clover.

" You really surprised me Ren, by getting the badge with in a year ", Clover said and gave him the badge. Ren laughed and took it. " Life is unfair, I took 5 years to obtain the badge ", Roche placed his arm around his neck and sighed loudly.

" Don't pay attention on him. Yesterday was his 5th breakup in this month ", Olivia said and laughed. " Don't mention that now ", Roche shouted at her. Ren too started laughing.

Ben and Clover stood at the background seeing their interactions. " Do you think he can be trusted? ", Clover asked Ben with a serious tone. " He is after the poneglyph language that is true. But I trust him and it is your call ", Ben said.

Clover was in deep thought. ' He is not from Govt and even Ben trusted him. My gut tells me to teach him about it and he will save our lives. I will think about it ', Clover sighed thinking about him.

" Anyway, I want to give you a treat ", Ren said to both Olivia and Roche. " Sorry, I have some matters today ", Olivia apologised. Ren nods and faced Roche. " Shall we go now? ", Roche asked.

" Why not? ", Ren said and both went to a diner. Olivia smiled and went to home. " So, Ren doesn't you have feelings for her? ", Roche asked when they arrived. " No, she is married anyway and I see her as my sister ", Ren said waving his hand. She married an year ago before Ren arrived and her husband always goes out. He can see genuine love in her eyes towards her husband when Ren asked about them.

" You should spend some time with your girlfriend when you are in a relationship. No wonder they always broke up ", Ren said and smiled. Roche wanted to argue but was silent. Ren was successful in changing the topic. Both are silently with their own thoughts.

===================================

At night after taking Roche home who is drunk Ren went home. He went for bath before lying on the bed. ' I will wait for a month. If they are not giving me books to read, I will kidnap Roche or Ben and convince them. I hope Clover will give me the language ', Ren thought and closed his eyes.

When Ren arrived at the library Clover called him to his room. " So, Ren. I want to ask some questions ", he said and Ren told him to go on.

" Do you know about void century? ", Ren nods. " We are trying to decipher poneglyph to know about it and we don't want to bring ancient weapons. I hope you have same thoughts ", Clover said.

" Pluton, Poseidon and Uranus. I know about them but I am not here for them ", Ren replied. Clover sighed in relief. " How much do you know about poneglyph? ", Clover asked curiously.

" There are 30 poneglyph across the world with 9 about history and 4 about location of Raftel and rest about ancient weapons. And locating Raftel will show us the Rio poneglyph which tells the entire history ", Ren told him everything he know about them.

Clover was first was impressed then shocked by the information about it. Even he doesn't know some info about Road poneglyph and Kozuki family. " Ren, want to decipher a poneglyph? ", Clover smiled at him. " Yes ", Ren replied.

===================================

Some where away from Ohara, a pair of eyes which are closed slowly opened. " Someone who is not a D is changing the future, interesting. Charlotte Ren, I will let you grow for awhile before seeing you ", it was gentle, mysterious and sweet voice which seem to calm one's mind and heart.
