Liam spent the next five minutes in solitude while he thought about the best way to handle the situation. Obviously, he didn’t have any evidence to prove that Larry pushed him down from the building, but he was definitely going to find a way to make him pay. “You have done well, Emrys. Lord Phaunos made no mistake in choosing you as his successor.” Brina’s serene voice said from within his head, causing him to adjust himself on the seat while he sighed softly. “But you tried to stop me from helping him out.”“You were put in a situation that was meant to scrutinize you, and you have shown how noble you are, how kind-hearted you are. You are the right one for this great task, Emrys.”Liam blinked severally, and then he lifted his brows to form a furrow.“Wait…” He huffed some air before he continued after looking around to be sure that no one was watching him. “Are you trying to say that that was a test?” “If that is what you choose to call it, then yes, it was a test.”“Wh

Liam lifted his brows the moment he heard the words from Noah who slowly returned his gaze to him after making sure that no one was eavesdropping on them. “A secret library?” “Yes. A secret library, Emrys.” Noah nodded to affirm his words, and after shielding his mouth with his right hand, he continued. “I think it was built in the past, way before this school became existent. The books there are so old but they contain so many secrets from the past and even predictions about the past. There are books on teleportation, time-traveling, space, reincarnation, and even magic.” Noah shook his head in excitement, staring at Liam who struggled not to express the frenzy that lingered in his mind, ready to let itself out. “Sometimes, I hear voices when I am inside the library, but no one ever shows up. I was thinking that it could be some of the students in this college, but no one seems to know anything about it. I am sure that the school would have reported it to the government if

Liam descended the stairs and made his way toward the classroom block with so much anger boiling inside him. “That coward! He calls me a drug dealer and a drunkard! I should deal with them when the time is right, all of them!”“Relax, Emrys. Do not forget what lies ahead of you. All of these are distractions that can set you back from your path.”“Brina? You are still here.”“Of course, Emrys. I am always here with you until my time is over.” Brina responded at once while Liam walked into the classroom block and sauntered through the hallway that led to one of the laboratories in the building. “Well, I thought you had left me. You suddenly became silent and refused to give me an answer to the question I asked.” “Focus, Warlord. You still have the ancient book to find, you still have a lot to learn.” Brina caused Liam to go into a period of thinking while he continued walking slowly toward the laboratory. “How long is this supposed to take? How long am I supposed to stay bef

Liam was forced to stop while Circe started to walk toward him with slow but steady steps. “I almost forgot about you.” Liam sighed softly even though he got no relief from it. “I underestimated you, mortal,” Circe said with a smirk on her face, she turned toward the maidens who were still grunting in pain, and scoffed at them before returning her gaze to Liam. At that moment, she became a bit wary of him and was cautious of not being attacked by him as she saw that he wielded more powers than she had imagined. “You may have been able to defeat my maidens, Emrys. But I will be back for you when the time is right. Phaunos may have bestowed his powers on you, but that doesn’t mean that you will be as half as the conqueror he was.” “You may be right, Circe. But that doesn’t mean that I will give up. You can try as much as you want, but I will never go back to your island with you.” Liam stood on his unshaken resolve, looking at the Enchantress who chuckled softly. “That’s new

Liam eventually pushed himself up from the bed and headed to the bathroom to have a quick shower before putting on the gray suit which fitted him perfectly.“She was right.” Liam smiled while he admired his outfit, alongside the brown Clark shoes which he got from the wardrobe. Certain that he looked like a young CEO, Liam nodded in satisfaction, adjusted his jacket before he walked out of his Chambers, and headed for the exit of the Castle. “Lord Emrys? You are back.” A female voice called out to him while he was still in the hall, trying to get to the exit doors in front of him. Monica quickly hurried toward Liam who turned around to look at her as soon as she called out to him. “Hello, Monica. It’s you…” “Welcome, Lord Emrys. It appears that you are on your way out.” “Oh yes, Monica. I have an important meeting to attend.” “But you just got back from college. You must be really exhausted and famished. I already asked Gladys to prepare something really nice for you, a
