After saying their greetings and exchanging some casualties, Zahid dived to the main point.
" Young lady Maitea, since you have requested an attendance with head master Borraig I assume the young lady has something important to discuss "
" Yes, it's important. I wanted to ask very old gramps Bo something "
Her innocent face was totally overwhelmed by Lennox's shamelessness. Let alone the reason why he would wear sunglasses inside a building, Lennox sat there leisurely chewing on some pastries in an indecent position. He accepted their hospitality but didn't utter a single word when they greeted him and even ignored them with a sneer.
Look at that kid who doesn't know how to treat his elders. Isn't he asking for a beating?
Zahid had a soft and good temper so he didn't bother with Lennox. Head master Borraig was more unlikely to pay attention to him, he stayed unmoving all the time like a stone statue, his overly-wrinkled face hid his eyes so it wasn't clear if he was awake or not. On the other hand, Ramis and Lilian were leisure enough to be concerned about manners. But for some reasons, their instincts warned them from provoking that boy by any means.
However, after Everly opened her mouth, they soon lost the brain cells to pester Lennox.
" What is it that young lady Maitea wishes to know "
" I was wondering if there is a way to go to the upper regions "
Chaotic silence fell upon them.
It is important to know that without Realm Gates, it's impossible to travel through the realms, be it the upper regions or gates of hell, unless one had a massive amount of mana or demonic energy to break through the barriers between the realms.
Such individuals were either divine beings or those who spent thousands of years mastering Mana Control. Although breaking through the barriers was possible, the higher the realm was, the harder it gets to break it. Making the fifth realm a limit for every living being except for the heavenly Emperor, Satan, and honourable beings.
These people were the only ones who could travel through all realms.
Ever since the black snow incident happened 500 years ago, the human realm has been isolated from the outer world. Many tried to find a way but none succeeded.
Actually, only a single one did.
Rakshata.
Lennox was the first to react. He choked on the pastrie he was chewing for a while before rebuking.
" WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK??? Why didn't I know about this before?!! "
" what do you mean why? Lennox never asked "
"...."
' I NEVER TOOK IT SERIOUSLY BECAUSE I THOUGHT YOU WOULD ASK ABOUT COOKIE RECIPE!!! SO WHY ARE YOU ASKING ABOUT EARTH SHATTERING TOPIC!!! '
Lennox looked at Everly's bright and innocent face in disbelief. He has nothing more to say, if she wants to die so be it. Lennox pushed his glasses back, fixed his posture and returned to bite down on those refreshments.
Ramis blurted in shock:" young lady Maitea, does master know that you have such thoughts? "
Everly pursed her lips upon the mention of Bernard. If he knew about this, you think he would let her come? Of course not, you idiot!
" brother Ba doesn't know. I don't want him to know either "
No one talked for a while. Only the sound of a teacup taping on the table Lennox made.
" young lady Maitea, I am afraid that we can't help you in this matter ", Zahid sighed with a profound expression on his face, " for hundreds of years, wars broke and people died when there was a single Whisperer about a way to return to the upper regions. Even with that, no one could find such a method "
Everly's eyelids dropped, she tightened her grip on Lennox's shirt's hem, saying in a low voice.
" Is there really no way, or Za doesn't want to tell me? "
" If you dare, then there is a way "
Hearing the deep and hoarse voice, Everly quickly raised her head towards head master Borraig. He looked like a still picture unwavering, if it's not for the fact that they had heard his voice before, one would have thought there was someone else in the room.
He continued, " success is not guaranteed, but it's the highest among all methods "
Everly's eyes burned with determination. No matter if she had to fly high to the sky, or jump down the deepest in the earth to get this method, she will definitely do anything.
" what is the way very old Bo is talking about "
" Rakshata's forbidden manuals, Wanderer's light"
This time even Everly was shocked. Rakshata was a very renowned genius. Although he was born in a body that resisted mana, Rakshata still proved himself to be one of the most knowledgeable ones in history. His studies and theories were all taught in magic academics through many realms. Unfortunately, he was trapped in the human realm, and worst, was hunted down while trying to protect an embryo beast egg.
Before his disappearance, Rakshata wrote down most of the theories that he dared not spread to the public. Out of 23 manual, only 5 books were found, the rest whereabouts were unknown.
One of these missing manuals is Wanderer's light.
If the entire mass couldn't find them, how would she find them??
As Everly finished pandering these thoughts, she finally noticed that the air in the room seemed a bit chilly. She raised her head and saw the terrified looks of the people around her.
Lennox was in rage.
" ha. Hey old fart, you think I don't know what is going through that muddy head of yours? "
Lennox's short laugh could make people faint in terror. He brushed back his hair and smiled coldly.
" you want this fuzz to find it and bring it back to you. Wow, such good eyes, she indeed is able to find it "
Head master Borraig's thoughts were that Everly had the influence and resources that equals half of this realm's power right under her control. She was the darling of her brothers, granddaughter of the heavenly emperor and God's most precious creation. If she couldn't find these manuals then no one else can.
Lennox had no idea about her relationship with the heavenly Emperor or how much long her influence reach. But when he said Everly can find them, she indeed is able to get them with few words and tears. That's because these manuals are right with him.
If she coaxed Lennox to hand them over, he definitely would! He doesn't want to admit this, but Everly always had her way with him because of how cutesy she acts.
' and this nutjob bag of bones wants to take advantage of her???!!! FUCK YOUR GRANDMOTHER!! '
