I Just want a Peaceful life

Chapter 766  Elwint

Fortunately, Angus didn't have any bad intentions towards the elven girl. It is not that he wasn't interested in the clumsy elf girl. It is because he didn't dare to have any bad thoughts about her.

Although Angus is separated far away from Jayna in the Heart Kingdom, their mind is still connected. Admiring someone's beauty is one thing, but having any other with other girls is another matter.

Even if Jayna didn't say anything, Angus would still feel unbearable since he is quite faithful. Fortunately, their journey is short and unimpeded.

"Umm… Are you sure you want to go here? All the 'nails' here are in Elwint." said Aleria.

"[It's books not nails. I also know Elwint a little bit.]" said Angus in elven language.

Elwint is the mother language of the elf race. It is often dubbed as Elvish or elf words. It is a unique language on the border of ancient powerful language and common language.

"[Y-You… You could speak Elwint!! How? Are you an elf? Half-breed? But, I don't detect any trace of an elf in you.]" said Aleria excitedly in Elwint.

"Err... I just know Elwint a little bit." said Angus in his usual language.

Then, Angus entered the silent public library with rows of bookshelves. Like any other building, the public library is shaped like a tree with a big hole as an entrance. Still, Angus finds this building is more unique than other buildings.

He finds the whole library, shelves, and books are integrated with the tree building rather than forced through enchantment like Angus' tree residence.

The whole library is empty and only a few elves work as librarians. After Aleria talks with the receptionist, Angus gets permission to explore the library. During this time, some librarians and workers looked at Angus weirdly but didn't do anything.

Using his sharp perception and proficiency at Elwint, Angus finds the librarian is quite skeptical that he can speak and read Elwint. However, Angus neither confirms nor denies their doubt.

In fact, Angus already mastered Elwint with the help of the high elf Silvia. He even learned Ancient Elwint words, though he couldn't vocalize them as they belong to powerful ancient languages.

Still, Angus didn't dare to claim to master the language openly since he knew this language was quite dangerous. According to Silvia, the Elwint language is derived from one of the most powerful languages in the world, the Dragon Tongue.

To learn the Elwint language, the person needs to learn many vocabulary words and their grammar and a unique mana manipulation pattern for each word vocalization.

This makes the language almost unlearnable for outsiders since, without proper guidance, they couldn't even speak Elwint properly. If someone is forced to vocalize the words, it will not become unpleasant and rough in the ear. Their meaning could also change.

Since Angus' mind is connected with Silvia, he could learn Elwint easily by digesting the information given by this two-faced elf through his mind. With his high intelligence and [Analyze], he could memorize thousands of mana manipulation patterns in half a day.

If Angus uses his [Analyze] second threshold, he only needs half an hour to thoroughly memorize and learn the language.

"Mr. Angus, I am unsure where you learn the Elwint Language. However, we also had no rules to forbid others from reading our books. As long as you keep the place clean and don't damage the books, you could explore the library." said the elven librarian.

"Sure. Don't worry, I am just interested in elf literature." replied Angus before walking to a nearby wooden shelf.

Entering the extensive circular library, Angus passed many wooden shelves while glancing at all the books. Occasionally, he will stop and take the nearby book to flip it over before moving again.

Seeing Angus immersed in reading books, Aleria decided to wait outside and not disturb Angus. Unbeknown to her, it is also part of Angus' plan.

'Silvia, are you there?' asked Angus telepathically.

'I am at your service, master.' Silvia's voice is heard inside Angus' mind.

'You know what to do. Scanning all the books here without missing a single piece.' thought Angus.

'Y-Yes.' replied Silvia with difficulty.

Noticing the reluctant tone in Silvia, 'Don't worry, I promise to keep all the knowledge here by myself. Besides, you should be glad I didn't force you to appear here right now. Just do your task.' said Angus in a stern tone.

that I choose. It is also a curse for us, the high elf race.' said Silvia.

'Alright, master.' replied Silvia in an expressionless manner.

'Silvia, about your current condition… Will you become emotionless tools like artificial intelligence?' asked Angus with worry.

'As expected, you noticed my current condition master. T-This… This is something that I choose. It is also a curse for us, the high elf race.' said Silvia.

"You are lying again. No, you didn't tell the whole truth. *Sigh* Sometimes, I really wonder why you always punish yourself like this. However, your unstable mind also makes it hard to pity you. Still, I didn't believe you didn't have any solution for it.' replied Angus casually.

'It's… It's too late. I.. I am sorry, Master. I can't talk to you now and need to focus on scanning the book.' said Silvia.

Through his mind, he notices Silvia is lying to him once again. However, he also didn't say anything about it. He feels Silvia is trying to kill herself by becoming something similar to emotionless intelligence.

Silvia's current condition may be a little bit harsh and somewhat pitiful. Angus assumed Silvia had drastically changed since he defeated her in the duel.

She becomes expressionless without emotion more often than usual. Silvia's emotional part slowly numbed and only became a sort of programmed intelligence. This self-harm behavior becomes more apparent as time passes by.

However, it didn't mean Angus would not use her for his convenience. Scanning closed books is not as easy as when he opens them and reads them directly.

Angus needs to scan the whole book's words and reconstruct them in precise detail in his mind. During this time, he required full concentration and couldn't be distracted.

It also takes him a lot of mental and mind power to do this task. Therefore, Angus decides to use Silvia in this exhausting task while lending her his mind-processing ability. In this way, he could still pay attention to the outside world while Silvia scanned all the books in the library.

After shaking his head and clearing his mind, Angus starts to browse the information he gets from Silvia's scanning. Although Silvia is still not done scanning the books in the library, he finds a lot of important information in this library.

In fact, Angus has already targeted this public library since the start. He heard from Silvia that the elf race likes to collect knowledge and books. Therefore, their simple public library is a treasure trove for a researcher like Angus.

Unbeknown to Angus, the Roundel public library is one of the most complete libraries in the elf community. Not only forging techniques, they even have a few elf secret techniques.

However, all this information is properly concealed in travel logs or storybooks. Unless someone reads the books carefully, they may be unable to find the information easily. Moreover, Elwint's writing is more unusual than the common language.

To understand Elwint's writing, people need to read the whole sentence. However, it is a different case for books. People need to read the entire book before slowly decoding and reconstructing the whole book to read it.

Such a laborious task not only takes time but also heavily tasks someone's mind. Without cheating powers like [Analyze] or Angus' mind processing speed, someone will need at least a few months or more to read one Elwint book properly.

While pretending to flip the book over, Angus suddenly turns a cold expression before putting the book on his back to the shelf.

"Come out. I know you are there." said Angus to the empty space between shelves in front of him.

"As expected from someone with enormous chi. Now, I am truly interested in you. Say, boy why don't you come with me?" an enchanting voice from the surroundings.

At the same time, Angus finds Ivis revealing herself from her hiding in front of him.

"Greetings, Mistress Ivis. I don't think enchanting someone without their permission is polite. Should I take this as a provocation from the Makina Kingdom?" asked Angus coldly without being affected by Ivis' charm.

"Hee… You could even resist my charm. Now, I really want you. Say boy, did you interest in working for me?" asked Ivis coquettishly.

"I am sorry, I already have a girlfriend." refused Angus coldly.

"Huh?! You know... I find your tone quite annoying. [Domain - Crystal Palace]." said Ivis.

Ivis releases an invisible wave that covers Angus and his surroundings. In a moment, Angus finds countless beautiful naked women surrounding himself. He also feels a pleasurable warm feeling in his body. Even his lower part subconsciously gets hard by itself.

"This technique… Who are you?!!" roared Angus in anger.

"Fufufu… It seems you also know the domain technique. But, it is a futile effort to struggle. You are mine now." said Ivis in an enchanting voice.
