Chapter 383: History
“He hasn’t left yet?”
Loren had originally planned to go to the library at night to look for books, but as soon as he stepped out, he found Casper blocking the doorway. Every time Loren tried to leave, Casper would chase him down with questions, leaving Loren with no choice but to retreat back inside. So Loren waited until late into the night.
“He’s still at the door… A Scarecrow tried to persuade him to go home, but he didn’t leave.”
“This old man—I didn’t even say I was going to the academy tomorrow, and he’s just sitting there waiting? What if I don’t go until next month?”
In the end, Loren decided not to use the front door at all. He activated the High Tower and the Hermit simultaneously, phasing through the wall to leave.
Once outside, Loren flew straight toward the academy. In the air, he saw Casper sitting at the entrance.
“…”
Loren ignored him and headed directly to the academy’s library.
Unlike when Loren had been a student here, the academy didn’t enforce a curfew. Even at this late hour, plenty of people were still around, burning oil lamps as they studied diligently.
