A spirit of the Library of Records was born.
The main and most important upgrade the Library of Records and even the Perceptual Nexus Repository had was the birth of the spirit of the Library of Records.
Corey never knew that the Library of Records could produce a spirit.
Heck, he didn't even think it was alive!
Although, when he thought about it. There was a ti when a voice explained certain things about the library of records to him when he first entered.
But, the voice sounded more like an android and Corey just took it as an AI.
Turns out he was wrong.
Corey did not know what to expect from the spirit of the library of records.
Was it going to have its own personality?
Was it going to be aggressive? Loyal? Arrogant?
What would it look like?
And most important of all.
Was it going to be powerful and could it betray him and kill him?
Various questions of curiosity arose in Corey's mind as he gazed at the door to the library of records.
Although, Corey did not have the answers to his questions. He knew one thing.
The spirit was waiting for him.
He could feel a gaze from behind the middle door and he knew it was coming from the spirit.
Well, ti to et a Librarian spirit.
Corey made a light smile, then he walked towards the middle door.
He opened the door and when he saw a black swirling portal behind the door, he raised his brows and entered without hesitation.
Nurous and various bright colors flashed into Corey's eyes, almost blinding him in the process.
The colors and their intensity continued changing randomly for an unknown amount of ti, then it stopped.
Thud.
"Shit."
Corey cursed as he felt a hard surface and instantly collapsed on his knees.
His vision swam and he almost felt like puking his guts out.
His face changed countless tis for a few seconds, then he gulped and released a soft sigh with his eyes closed.
He opened his eyes and his vision returned back to normal.
A strange expression appeared on his face when he saw a pair of small bare feet a few inches from his face.
Corey looked up, and his expression beca weirder.
"What's with that expression weak one?"
A voice which undoubtedly belonged to that of a young male.
An extrely young male…
Flowed into Corey's ears and Corey's expression beca much weirder.
An expression Corey rarely made.
Standing a few inches away from Corey was a young boy of 3 feet 9 inches.
The boy looked like a five year old kid, and he had pure white eyes like Corey's Eyes of Omniscience.
He also had pure white hair and in his hand was a book.
Corey might not have found this completely strange.
But, what he did find strange, were the clothes of the young boy and the serious expression he had.
The boy was wearing a tuxedo.
A pure, pristinely white tuxedo with a white bow tie!
The only thing that was missing in the boy's outfit were his shoes.
He wore no shoes.
A five year old handso boy in a white tuxedo and a book in his hand.
It was extrely strange.
And also cute.
Corey found it cute.
"Are you perhaps deaf?"
The boy tilted his head as he looked at Corey with a slight frown and a tinge of curiosity.
Corey did not answer, but instead stood, then looked at the boy.
The boy looked back at him.
Corey looked down. The boy looked up.
Corey found it uncomfortable looking at a boy who barely reached up to his knees, so he decided to sit.
"At least you have common courtesy."
The boy said and Corey raised his brows.
Even though the boy's words were arrogant, Corey could not take him seriously since he was just a small boy whom he found cute.
"So, you're the spirit of the Library of Records I guess?"
Corey questioned in a tone that was not really a question.
He already knew the answer but he just wanted to clarify.
"Yes I am." The boy nodded.
"And what a terrible na you gave this place. Well, I've heard much worse before."
The boy shook his head while releasing a soft chuckle.
Corey's expression changed slightly when he heard the boy's chuckle.
It was strange.
It sounded more like the chuckle of an old man than that of a five year old.
'Please don't chuckle again.' Corey hoped.
Corey looked away from the boy and decided to observe his surroundings.
Sothing which he should have done from the onset. But, ever since he saw the boy, his attention was always on him.
Deciding to shift his thoughts away from the boy, Corey focused on his surroundings.
From the mont he entered the Library of Records, Corey knew the library of records had changed.
And as he looked around, he was right.
The library had changed.
The first noticeable change was that the library of records was no longer in a room.
They were literally in space, or to be more precise, the dark space which contained countless stars and the gigantic chained white star.
Corey could see shelves which seed to have no end either horizontally or vertically.
There was no ceiling, walls or even solid ground in the Library of Records, and Corey found this… sort of beautiful and peaceful.
"Hey. I was talking to you."
Just as Corey was enjoying the scenery, a figure appeared in the blink of an eye in front of him, with his voice sounding quite angry.
Corey looked at the figure whose face expressed mild anger.
'Cute.'
Corey thought and had the urge to pinch the young boy's cheeks.
And he did.
Much to the boy's shock and anger.
"HEY!"
The boy shouted and he tried to push Corey's hand away but he was too weak.
Corey's hand barely budged and after a few seconds, Corey stopped.
"You'll pay for this."
The boy said with narrowed eyes while rubbing his red cheeks.
Corey shrugged nonchalantly.
"So, you said you're the spirit of the library of records. What can you do?"
Despite it seeming like Corey had not been listening to the boy from the beginning, Corey heard all that the boy said. But he chose to ignore all of it.
"I asked you a question first. How were you able to create and unlock the alchemy anvil?"
"You're too weak to have unlocked these things on your own."
The boy asked and Corey shrugged.
"Answer my question first."
Corey said, and just as the boy was about to protest, Corey made a pinching motion with his hands.
"Unless you want to pinch and pull your cheeks again."
The young boy went silent and his left eye twitched in anger.
