Although the identification system was near her, the girl didn't use her keycard. Instead, she managed to open a drawer revealing a keyboard and monitor, and then she started to type sothing at unbelievable speed.
"Mmm… I guess she is so kind of computer nerd. Although her job is organizing the files, she must have so skills to keep the files protected. It looks a single governnt system exists in this world, but nothing says that the harvesters may use magic or so sort of advanced device to hack their system and destroy their archives…"
"… You were summoned to this world, right?" The girl asked.
"What makes you think that?" Leon asked.
"I heard about you, you appeared out of nowhere and ran away when the guards tried to arrest you." The girl said. "If you had the sa goal as the harvesters, you wouldn't run away. You would instead kill everyone on sight and destroy the systems that protect the capital."
"I see… so you guys use so kind of system to keep the harvesters away." Leon nodded. "But since you are still at war with them, it looks like the system can't protect this place forever… You are right. I was summoned to this world by a lizard monster. Although the guards of this place tried to kill , I don't have ti to waste on things like revenge. I just want to find so clues to go back ho."
"I see… sorry for causing you trouble." The girl said and slowed down her typing a little bit.
"Why are you apologizing? You work organizing files. You aren't a guard." Leon said.
"It is because my grandfather gave the order to kill every invader on sight." The girl explained. "My grandmother died when the first traveler ca to this world… I don't know if it was an accident or not, but…"
"You should stop there. I don't have ti to hear about the sad past of those who tried to kill ." Leon said. "Just do your job, and I promise that no one will die today."
The last thing Leon needed at that mont was that kind of information, he didn't want to waste ti-fighting, but if so fights break out in the future, he couldn't let his enemies walk away after defeating them. He wasn't that naïve, and he wouldn't let anyone treat him like pushover two tis.
Much to Leon's surprise, the door opened quite fast, and then Leon saw a single room that had the smaller versions of that massive computer. Under every computer, Leon could see so symbols, but couldn't understand them.
"Are these the letters of this world?" Leon frowned since those letters looked even harder to understand than hieroglyphs.
"Yes… by the way, it looks like the access for this room is limited." The girl explained while she was reading sothing at the monitor. "The door will close in thirty seconds and will only be opened after three hours."
"Shit… then I will have lock myself and won't be able to watch my surroundings." Leon clicked his tongue.
According to what Leon heard from Eadmund, he would have four hours to invade the research center… half an hour had passed since he began the mission. So, the door or the archives room would open again a few minutes before dawn. He wouldn't have the chance to access that place again, and he couldn't let anyone see him, so he had to escape before dawn.
"Let's enter… you will have to read the files for ." Leon said.
The girl promptly nodded, for so reason, she wasn't trembling like crazy anymore, but Leon ignored that and just let out a long sigh when the five ters thick titanium-like door closed.
"You are looking for archives of what kind of magic?" The girl asked.
"Anything related to teleportation magic, space magic, and ti magic," Leon answered.
"… You know that those use stupids amounts of mana, right?" The girl asked.
"It doesn't matter. I want to learn about teleportation magic." Leon said.
The girl looked around and searched for the computers that had those archives. It looked like she was taking her ti, but Leon wasn't so sure of that since the number of computers was close to three hundred. If Leon could take his ti to learn at least a small portion of that… but even if he could, he hadn't ti. Just hearing about sothing wasn't enough to Leon learn, he would have to practice and polish the action until it becos a spell. Besides, the knowledge obtained by civilization over seventy years wasn't sothing Leon could learn in his lifeti.
"It is here…" The girl accessed a random computer. "Yes… my brain doesn't rember, but my body does… It looks like we already began experinting with teleportation magic… but there isn't a single positive result. The researchers tried to move so objects from one point of the city to another. However… the said objects had never been found again. The archive about teleportation magic just says that."
"Shit… I will have to interrogate the harvester then." Leon clicked his tongue.
"��� Are you going to do what?" The girl frowned.
"I'm going to whatever I have to do to go ho… that is all you need to know." Leon answered, a bit annoyed. "Now, look for the files about space magic… that being said, it shouldn't have any information valuable either."
The girl looked for the information in question, and just like Leon had imagined, there wasn't the information Leon wanted. However, even though the people of that world failed at using teleportation per se, they managed to bend space to so extent. The spell was called Checkpoint, but it wasn't like Leon would return to a certain point in case he dies. That spell was used to travel between locations that the user registers.
"Hehehe, this is quite an interesting spell," Leon smirked.
