《Slade the Shade》Chapter 14: Library and librarian.
Advertisement
[Welcome to Evergreen City traveler]
[Evergreen City has been automatically set as your respawn point]
What appeared in my sight was a massive city surrounded by high walls, clean streets bigger and better houses, and lots of people doing their everyday business. in the center of the city was a huge beautiful fountain which was slightly ruined by a statue of the goddess next to it. With guards everywhere, Slade found the city quite nice and a good place to start his journey. While he was touring the city taking in the sights and making a mental map a message was shown in front of him, making him stop and bump into someone.
[World announcement: Ten players have made it to level 10 and as a result, the top ten rankings for levels are now available]
[Would you like to reveal your name]
[Y/N]
"Yes, I do not see why not," Slade said
'Ranking'
[Level Ranking

2)Zed; Pyromancer; 10
3)Slade; None; 10
...]
"Third place, huh" Slade sighed as he was about to walk away.
"Hey, you can not just bump into someone and walk away." When Slade turned around he found a short woman wearing glasses with brown long hair and a good figure, which admittedly Slade found cute, talking to him.
"Sorry, it's my fault now would you excuse me." Slade tried to leave but he found the woman holding his clothes refusing to let him leave.
"What else do you want young lady." She blushed and pointed at the fallen books around them. With an irritated face and extreme reluctance he picked them up and even offered to carry them for her. On the way, he made some small talk and found out her name is Mira.

"Say Mira why are you carrying these heavy books around for?"
"Um, actually I'm a librarian and I'm collecting the loaned out books."
"That's convenient."
"Why is that," she asked timidly.
"You see I have a quest that needs me to research something so I came here to this city."
"Wait are you a traveler?" she asks me with eagerness and anticipation all over her face.
"Yes, is there a problem?"
"No, I'm just excited at seeing a real traveler, omg, I read lots of books saying travelers will be here soon and defeat the demon lord, before protecting the kingdom. Is that what you going to do after your research?" she said with an innocent charm.
"Maybe another traveler but definitely not, please don't put those expectations on me" Slade cringed as he imagined being some sort of naive hero
"My bad I'm sorry but maybe you guys can end all the conflicts in this world."
"You are truly naive Mira but maybe it's better to be as optimistic as you. And like I said don't expect anything of that nature."
With a long walk to the library, Slade finally made it to the last step of his quest. What Slade found out was that it costs 10 silver a day to read books in the library and after paying for a few days he requested the books he wanted from Mira. Books about ghosts, books about the supernatural, and books about mythical beings.
After a long two days, he finally found the shocking information he was looking for, Slade pulled out the teleportation scroll and anticipated the class and race change he was about to receive for his quest completion.

Home of Laplace
I opened my eyes to an unfamiliar mountain peak standing tall above me like seeing a skyscraper from the street. Soon the chilling burn of the snow that covered me began to invade my senses and I flung my torso upward, sitting up straight. I grabbed my head in confusion as my eyes surveyed the area around me: The corner of a mountain wall stood menacingly in front of me accompanied by thin, dangerous looking paths on either side. The likes of which only adrenaline-seeking psychopaths would use. I turned my head backwards and felt my heart drop as what looked like an infinitely long freefall met my gaze. I was sitting on the ledge of a snow-covered mountain. "CRKKKK" A heart-shaking croaking sounded from above me further up the mountain and I jolted backwards at the impossibly loud sound. 'Shit, wasn't there nothing behind me?' The sound of cracking stone accompanied the heart dropping sensation of descension. As I plunged down backwards, the last thing I saw was the deep-set brown eyes of that blue-skinned monstrosity further up the mountain. ----------------------------------------------------- Levi Laplace is a former genius biochemistry student that died a simple and laughable death on earth. Having studied profusely and written many papers published by large firms he was well-respected and accomplished in his field. But that did not prevent him from having his own problems in his personal life. Having chased behind the back of science for so long he had neglected his social life, ending up lonely and without a partner in his early twenties coming out of his studies. He decided that the best way for him to rekindle his social prowess was to retire to teaching high school science in a small town. He never ended up falling in love as he dreamed but he did find surprising contentment from dealing with the troubled raccoons he taught on a daily basis. Finding himself summoned to a strange world by unknown forces he is confronted with harsh issues and the struggles of its people. Meeting many more problem children, he is moved by his sense of duty to help them find their path in this journey through life. As well as find his own in this dangerous new world. ________________________________________________________________________________________________ Chapter updates DAILY AT 12:00 PM EST (...Is the goal, sometimes a bit later in the day or the next day at 12:00 instead :P ) Definitely at least once every two days though!
