YM778.TV Chapter 66 The Librarian I
"Hum hum~"
Zamira\'s happy mumbling as she dressed back up to begin their day.
Constantine\'s eyes opened only to see the sight of Zamira bending down, portraying all her glorious back to him as she wore back her trousers first.
"Good morning, master."
"Morning... I fell asleep..." Constantine too yawned in shame, after yesterday\'s meal he went straight to sleep after both of them had discarded their clothes.
"We fell asleep." She confirmed with a small giggle; trying to not have him reproach himself for jumping the guard.
"Is your hair longer?" He saw her lustrous purple hair that not only looked slightly longer but also, voluminous?
"It is your imagination, I feel it the same, in fact... it feels lighter~" Lifting her arms she wore her shirt, it pressed tightly against her chest.
Deciding that he had gazed enough, Constantine prepared to dress himself up, beginning with the mantle on his head.
"Master?"
"Um?"
"I love you~" Having said her words, Zamira continued to dress up clumsily while Constantine simply remained there, scratching his head.
"..."
\'Okay, she\'s happy...\'
[Aren\'t you too, pervert...? I\'m surprised you didn\'t go all the way.]
\'I\'m not yet clear about this whole \'Golden Seed\' thing that Aurelianne gave me... I don\'t want Zamira to end up pregnant.\' He didn\'t dispute the \'pervert\' accusation.
\'I should ask her next time...\'
"Would you like to have your breakfast before departing, dear customer?"
While he and Zamira disposed themselves to leave, the receptionist asked them.
"Master?" Zamira\'s stomach indicated that she did want to have breakfast but he...
\'I\'m still a little full from yesterday...\' It was such a weird occurrence, Zamira is undoubtedly one in a million.
His encounters with ladies usually end up with them filled to the brim, yet right now he\'s the one \'filled\'.
"Okay, but I\'ll be having something light." He groaned and the two headed to the noble restaurant where they were the only customers, Zamira\'s mood was high in the skies and he couldn\'t blame her for all the moaning that took place the day prior.
...
"What are our plans for today?" She asked as they walked on the sunny streets, the ground was moist and the sunshine reflected it, apparently, it had rained.
"Today we\'re heading to Andre\'s and see if they got the property I told them, afterwards, the fastest possible we\'re heading to the Lindom Forest to search for this material." He wanted to focus on completing this quest, aside from that, everything else was second place in priority, even their lodging... perhaps that would be their last day staying at the hotel despite the fact he paid for five days, in any case... the second room\'s payment was already lost.
"Um." Zamira nodded, simply willing to follow with her trusty sword in her back, she hoped they\'d have a chance to spar soon since she wanted to try it so bad.
...
As they walked Constantine was thinking about his magical prowess, the last attack made him know that magic was something he needed to control after creating a small tsunami by using his entire power.
\'I need to think of a way of joining my swordsmanship with magic, to create something deadly...\' His sword wouldn\'t be enough to defeat the greatest opponents, and his magic wouldn\'t be enough to stop those that came in close quarters, the scarred cult was a rather easy bunch, but according to Zamira, they\'re the weak ones, there are stronger members and they need to be prepared.
"Is there a library in this town?" he asked suddenly and she pursued her lips before coming up with an answer.
"Yes, there is- oh! There are plenty of magic books in there, master, they\'re quite basic but they should work for you!" As if catching the idea mid-air, Zamira reproached herself for not having talked about that sooner, he is a magus and of course, he\'s going to need magic books to grow in this aspect.
The problem is, she only went there once, the idea would have never popped up no matter how hard she tried.
"Have you read any?" He inquired, already knowing his answer if only by how much of a klutz Zamira is when she proposes to be.
"No... I don\'t have the magic of the elements after all, but they should serve you well, master, come this way." They switched paths and Zamira led the way towards the library, but they were bound to pass by a certain someone\'s house along the way.

"Sir, Madame!" A girl yelled after finally having caught a glimpse of the person she was looking for, Constantine.
"Oh, Raki~" he saw her in the distance, running and panting, apparently she got herself some new clothes although they looked cheap, those were casual clothes of the kind he\'d never see back in his world, long trousers that seemingly clutched on her waist, a shirt and some shoes.
After running a small sprint, Raki came to a stop in front of them while panting, her auburn hair let loose.
"I-I have been looking for you, S-Sir, I didn\'t know where you\'d be." She was panting but still greet him cordially, she also nodded towards Zamira who merely greeted her back with a smile.
"It\'s good to see you\'re okay, you got yourself nice clothes~" He praised.
"F-Father said that I couldn\'t present myself in front of you with those rags, it would be... unsightly." She fidgetted and awaited his reaction, but all she received was a pat on her head.
"Then your father is rather wise." He thought she looked pretty, her eyepatch and those few scars slightly ruined her otherwise flawless countenance, but it wasn\'t something that he cared for at the moment, the girl was doing better and that\'s what matters.
"Where are you heading to?" She asked then, obviously planning to stick along.
"The library... are you free this week?"
"Yes! If I can I\'d like to begin the training right away!"
"I love your enthusiasm, very well, you\'re coming with us to the Lindom Forest, I\'m looking for a certain material, here... I want to meet an alchemist and see if he can tell me something about the flowers I got from you." He gave her the sheet with the description of what they were looking for.
