Chapter 25: Chapter 25: I fell for you

"I really don't understand why you selected him as an Elder."

While Eren was climbing the stairs to read on the fourth floor, a conversation was taking place on the fifth floor that was thought to be empty currently.

The Sect Master looked back at the Grand Elder whose face was hidden behind a thin veil.

"Do I need a reason for that?" she asked.

The Great Elder revealed an amused smile. She looked at the woman sitting on the floor with great interest.

"You certainly don't need a reason for that. But I remember, you were never interested in these things. You always leave these boring things for us to handle."

She further added, "How could I not be curious when he's the first man you brought home?"

As soon as the Great Elder finished speaking, she felt a bloodlust that was aimed at her.

"Cough, I meant the first Elder you brought to the sect." The Great Elder clarified.

"You should be really careful with your words," the Sect Master reminded the Great Elder as she stood up. "I am done here."

She walked past the Great Elder, halting for a brief moment.

"Also, if you want to read these foolish books about romance stories, then you could have done that at your place. You don't need to read such things here."

Her eyes only briefly glanced at the book that the Great Elder was reading. Although the book was covered in an old cover, it was clearly a book that was recently written.

"You don't need to be so stern," the Great Elder replied, letting out a melodious laughter. "You have abandoned your emotions, but I can't do the same. I can't help it if I'm such a romantic."

"If you want to read it, I can give this to you for a few days?" she suggested. But by the time she turned around, the Sect Master was already gone.

"She is always so stubborn." The Great Elder was left alone on the fifth floor.

"Still, to think that the person who abandoned all her emotions, brought a man to the sect. I wonder why she did that?"

"That boy's aura was strong indeed, but it wasn't strong enough for her to pay attention. So why him?"

She closed the book, getting really intrigued by Eren. Visitt novelbin(.)co/m for the latest updates

He was easily able to pass through the barrier, that in other cases would have killed even someone much stronger than him.

"I suppose it wasn't an exaggeration that Elders don't come here."

The entry floor was completely empty. He appeared to be the only Elder here.

"Or rather, they've been here for a long time, so they have probably gone through all these books."

He entered the fourth floor library, which was so vast that he didn't know where to start.

"Is the Librarian here?" he asked around.

On the first three floors, he hadn't seen the Librarian at all.

Usually, the Librarian was on the highest occupied floor, which he believed to be the fourth floor.

Just as he was about to call out for the Librarian, a sweet scent spread across the entire fourth floor.

Eren felt his heartbeat getting faster, just with the scent alone. It was as if he never wanted to leave this place.

"Are you looking for me?" While Eren was feeling strange urges rising within him, he heard a beautiful yet seductive voice coming from behind him.

The voice alone was the most beautiful voice he had ever heard. It was as if his heart was willing to fall for the woman, even though he hadn't seen her.

He had to use his entire willpower to resist this urge.

"Are you looking for a fight?" Eren asked as he released the Sword Emperor's Aura that covered the entire library.

As soon as he used his aura, he was able to recover a little from that strange atmosphere.

"Why would this poor girl look for a fight when she adores Young Master so much," the Seductive Voice came again as the scent once again assaulted him.

A woman hugged him from behind, as if she wasn't hurt by his aura at all.

"This poor girl is just so happy to be meeting such a handsome man that made her fall in love at first sight."

Her warm breath brushed against his neck as her hands moved around him, as if toying with him.
