Allen and his little bones [Western Fantasy]

The old library is not called old because it was built as long as the school history of Black School, but because the name of the school library is "Old Library".

The old library contains many ancient and unpopular ancient classics. It is located in the Black Academy, and the Black Academy rarely communicates with the other two colleges on the Asa Continent. For the students of the tower, it is hard to find at a high price, not to mention that most of them are "dark element books" that need to rely on the power of the undead or magic to activate the contents. , and may not be able to read the contents.

Suddenly realizing that he is now free to borrow these lonely books that require the energy of the dark element to unlock, the power of knowledge instantly overwhelms the original entanglement, Eli packs away both joy and guilt, and enters a place where he can go and watch a book. The excited state of this magical library.

Allen heard the voice of the undead answer briskly: [Okay, I'll listen to you. 】

The remaining small crease between his brows also relaxed: "Well, let's go."

On the top floor of the main building, at the end of the west corridor, there are two ordinary tall wooden doors.

Eli followed Allen all the way here, and he didn't realize until Allen stopped for a moment-the old library had arrived.

【…】

The undead looked at the two wooden doors in front of him in astonishment, and couldn't help looking left and right.

The library of Alberta College is a separate six-story building.

Here, according to Allen, is where the old library is, but it only occupies a corner of this floor.

Compared with the familiar library in memory, this scale gap made Eli a little unbelievable.

This is where a large number of rare treasures are hidden?He couldn't help thinking in his heart.

Allen stood half a step behind Eli. He watched the skull turn left and right, and then looked straight at the wooden door while maintaining the half-raised skull posture.

This Eli looks different from usual, he is obviously in a daze and a daze, even a little...cute?

Allen held a paralyzed face, quietly pondering the words in his heart.

—Did he just think of Eli as "cute"?

Older than him, higher than him.

The age gap of one, two, or even three or four years old is not so clear after the college life is over, but when they are still in the stage of college study, one year old is one class.A friend who is two years older doesn't sound like much older, but when converted to a senior who is two years older, it seems that the other party is much more mature.

Realizing that he used the adjective "cute" for a senior who took good care of him in the past, Alan introspected for a moment. Fortunately, Eli was still looking at the gate of the old library and didn't notice anything strange about him.

When the undead immersed in emotion finally came back to his senses, he turned his head, and what he saw was the face of a human being who had regained his composure.

Allen said, "Go in."

【it is good. 】

Just passing through the two plain wooden doors, you can't really see much of the real style of the old library. Eli pins his hope on the world behind the door.

—He was not disappointed.

Even though he was ready to be surprised by the scene behind the door, the moment the door opened, Eli was still stunned by everything he saw.

Generally speaking, the feeling is that the eyes suddenly brighten up, as if the whole world suddenly enlightened.

The space behind the door is unimaginably wide.

The stone platform under the feet is suspended in mid-air, and the bottom is bottomless. There is a long stone path connected to the platform in front of the eyes, and the stone path leads to the circular platform in front.The round platform is located in the center of the entire space, with six long stone paths extending around it, leading to six different areas of the library. The round platform itself is the old library management center that handles various borrowing and registration procedures.

The quaint stone turns are unremarkable at first glance, but if you pay close attention, you will find that each giant stone slab is engraved with elemental magic patterns. A large number of element symbols are arranged on the stone slabs according to certain rules, blending with the natural texture of the slate itself. It has become a kind of imperceptible decoration.

Looking into a darker place, one can see faint brilliance flashing on those elemental magic patterns.

This is a magical space created by relying on elemental power.

"Long time no see." Behind the wide curved table in the management center, there was only a delicate girl in a school gown sitting. She looked like she was studying in the fifth or sixth grade. Her pointed ears and grayish complexion showed her undead Seeing that it was Allen, she showed a shy smile and called "Teacher" softly.

Allen responded to the greeting: "Long time no see."

The girl is one of the student administrators of the old library, and basically spends all her spare time in the old library. The borrowing and registration management office is only busy for a while during the peak borrowing period. She is very free in other time periods. Nest behind the wide table and read your favorite book.

Although this was not a student that Alan had ever brought, the two of them were considered acquainted because Alan often visited the library when he was in school.

Allen exchanged pleasantries with her, and then received the magic key to the orphan ancient books area.

When doing district entry grades for Allen and Eli, the girl peeked at Eli several times curiously. Today, Eli is still wearing the long black cloak that wraps from head to toe. Even though this is Black Academy, no one would ask An undead cast a strange look, and he was more used to hiding himself under the hood, as if he was afraid of scaring someone in the academy.

Although the girl couldn't see the hidden face of the skeleton, the subtle induction among the same race made her realize that it was also an undead.

The orphan area is located in the deepest part of the entire old library. Eli first followed Allen on the stone road in the opposite direction from when he came. After walking a long distance, he passed two elemental barriers before finally entering the orphan area.

[Really strict defense. 】After successfully entering the area, Eli turned around and carefully inspected the last barrier they had just passed, sighing with emotion in a low voice.

The last barrier is a defensive formation with a strange shape. The lines that outline the formation are sombre to almost blackish red. Under the faintly flickering elemental light, the entire formation seems to be suffused with blood, no matter how you look at it, it makes people happy unknown.

"Orphaned books in the old library are expensive in the black market, and there are always a lot of guys who want to take risks and break in." Allen followed Eli's movements and looked back at the defensive formation. "These formations are all registered with the management center. The system is connected, and only officially registered objects are allowed to pass through, and if an object without permission wants to forcefully break through the barrier, it will touch the defense mechanism of the magic circle."

As for what would happen to the object that touched the defense mechanism of the magic circle, referring to Herbert's description of the object that trespassed on the teleportation circle, it was not difficult for Eli to guess the ending.

It must be a fate that the word "miserable" alone is not enough to describe.
