51-51. Library

The next day.

We had come to the library with Mekku after a long day at the inn.

"This is the largest library in the world, the Vafol Library," he said.

Deca...

Bigger than a...

The sheer size of the building pressurized me and Raina.

It didn't feel like a library.

It might be better to call it a giant castle.

If the building is this big, it should have a lot of books.

But will they be able to search through it all?

I feel like there is a limit to what three people can do.

There's a gatekeeper before that, but this isn't something you can go in as you please, is it?

Let's ask Mekku.

"Hey, Meku. What's the easiest way to get in here?

It costs a lot of money, but everyone is welcome to enter. But you can't read all the books. If you want advanced information, you'll have to go through a lot of trouble.

What kind of trouble is trouble, exactly?

You've got to earn the town's affections. Well, Tetsuya is a strong man. I think that's something we can manage.

Powerful people are going to love it.

I don't want to do anything that will make them like me.

If that's the only way, it's the only way.

For today, you can look for what you can read. There are a lot of books that can be read from the beginning, so it's not so easy to search through them. There are a lot of books out there that anyone can read.

It's unlikely that it contains information about your Mark or breaking the curse on me.

Anyway, it would be good to start out looking as far as you can read, and then you'll get the likes of this town's movers and shakers and go find advanced information.

Then we'll go in.

We walked into the library.

The price was five gold, which wasn't a lot of money.

The gatekeeper will give us a heads up.

Do not make a noise in the library.

Don't take the book without permission.

Do not damage the books, etc.

I heard that I will be banned or made to pay a large amount of money when I tore the book. There was a guard inside, and I was reminded that I should not do anything badly.

There must be so much trouble.

Since the literacy rate in this world is not so high, I think that only those who can read would be of reasonably high status, I don't need to be reminded that much.

I walk into the library.

Mek told me to ask the librarian about the books.

I asked the librarian where the books with information on curses and such were located.

The librarian leads me to the place where the books are.

'There are quite a few books with curses written in them.'

There are roughly two hundred books on that sort of thing.

They seem to be about curses that you can inflict on your opponent with magic and skills.

Mek's is a curse, so it's fine here, but I honestly don't know if the imprint is a curse or not, so I don't know if it's fine here.

I don't know where else to go, so I'll just look it up here too.

''It looks like it's going to be tough to read it all!

It must be quite a chore to read it looking like this.

We started reading.

Meku is in his stuffed animal form, but he manages to read the book. It looks pretty hard to read, though.

Raina can read at least once. Mek didn't teach her, and she has amnesia, but she only knows the letters from the beginning for some reason.

But his comprehension was a problem, so he asked Mek what it meant every single time he asked her what it meant.

And after a few hours of research.

No.

I'm hungry.

We'll leave for now. Let's get out of here for now and go to dinner.

I bet the food in this town is delicious!

But I don't have a lot of money, and it looks like I need to do some adventuring in this town and in the adventurers.

For today, I decided to leave the library and have some food.

○

Yummy!

We were eating food at a nearby restaurant.

It was a restaurant that served noodle dishes and served a ramen-like dish.

It tasted a lot different than the ramen I knew, but it was pretty good.

Speaking of which, I heard that Saint Riko will be coming home tomorrow.

Well, I'd like to see you, wouldn't you?

Saint Rico?

It's a standard fantasy saint, but her name is Rico. She seems to be Japanese.

Hmm?

But I think I've heard the name Rico before.

Oh, I just remembered.

I was told by the Abyssal King (Abyss King).

He said it was an irregularity that occurred at the same time.

In short, the name of that high school girl who came to this world with me must be Rico.

Coincidence........right?

It hasn't even been that long since she came to this world, and it's not natural for her to be called a saint in this short period of time.

No........she would have a special skill just like me.

If you use it, wouldn't you say it's impossible?

I'll have to take a look at that Saint Riko person once.
