Sorceress - Chapter 272

Since some of them already had plans for today, the group decided to have their lunch at the pantry first.

So that they can spend time together. Before they would go and deal with each of their own plans.

After having a hearty meal, Mu Lingxi and her friends finally bid their farewell to one another and decided to went on separated ways.

Long Fuzi, Long Yue, Chang Gu as well as Yun Xue all went to Majika just like what they initially planned. While Mu Lingxi and Fan Lei also went on separate ways.

Since they had some free time, Mu Lingxi decided to spend this leisure time at the library.

The truth is she was actually planning on going through the school records once again.

Although they already check it out before, she still wanted to make sure that she did not miss out on something within the records.

She wanted to give it another try and see if there is any useful information that she could use.

Since the library is the only lead that she had so far, then she was thinking of leaving no books unturned in this library.

If checking each and every book inside their school library is her only way to get the answer that she was looking for, then she is more than willing to do so.

She had never dared wonder about it before, but now that she uncovers more about the past and identity of the previous owner of her body, the more curious she felt.

She now can’t help but have some doubt if her transmigration really happened by some stroke of luck, or if its premediated and there was more secret behind it.

Also, she was planning of doing some research about the forbidden practice of necromancy.

Since she already learned that her identity had something to do with this forbidden practice then she felt the need to learn more about this necromancy thing.

Going to the section located at the far end corner of the library, Mu Lingxi soon arrived at the section where the school records were being kept.

It looks exactly just like how it looked before when they first came to this part of the library.

This section still looks desolated and abandoned as ever. Thick dust still cloaked the covers of the books that were left unattended in the bookshelves.

Although it was still daytime right now, there is barely any sunlight coming on this part of the library.

If not because of the artificial light coming from crystal pearls that illuminated the area, the place will be dark.

Since she was intending on checking all of the books on the shelves, Mu Lingxi started picking up the books, section by section.

“Janus, help me to look for information at this books.”

She said as she put a pile of books before her cat.

As soon as she put down the books at the table, a cloud of dust raised in the air.

‘Cough! Cough! Cough!’

Both Mu Lingxi and Janus cough hard as the cloud of dust raised from the books.

“MEOW”

[Who is the librarian of this place?! They need to be called out! Look at how thick those dust accumulation already are?!!! Are they planning to build a dust castle out from it???]

“Stop complaining Janus. Just keep on reading. Then tell me if you found the record for the sorceress named Yu Yan. Or if you will find any record for the best sorceress in Elixir Making around 20 years ago”

“Oh! Right, I can also use her.”

Mu Lingxi said to herself as another great idea struck her. Then with a flick of her hand, the fluffy white baby snow dragon, Guinevere, came out from her storage ring.

“Guinevere, I need your help. Check these books for me and look for any information regarding the sorceress named Yu Yan or a sorceress that made their name in Elixir Making, 20 years ago.”

After giving her instruction, Mu Lingxi placed another pile of books in front of Guinevere. Just like before, another cloud of dust raised from the cover of the books as soon as it landed on the table.

Guinevere tried her best to flap her cute tiny wings to fan the dust away from her.

“You’re joking right???? Do you honestly expect me to read books??!!!”

The baby snow dragon asked in her usual brat-like tone.

“Yes, you heard me right. And don’t think about slacking because we still have a lot of books to check. You see all those books over there and there???  We have to go through all of that!”

As she said that, Mu Lingxi tried pointing at the different section sections of the library. This is to show Guinevere that they still have a lot of books to check on.

So she better hurry up. Or it will take them forever before they will finish all those books.

“No way! I am a Dragon, not an owl! Duh????”

“Fine with me. But no more food supplies for you from now on. No meat jerky, nothing at all. Deal?”

Mu Lingxi stated her condition when she saw how adamant the baby snow dragon was about turning down her order.

“Where’s the book??? Bring it on!!!!”

It seemed that Mu Lingxi’s threat work on Guinevere.

Because as soon as she heard that there will be no more meat jerky for her, she instantly had a change of heart.

For a glutton like Guinevere, there is nothing more frightening than being deprived of foods.

Being a self-proclaimed meat jerky fanatic, she can’t imagine living a happy life without a meat jerky in a single day.

What’s with checking out a few piles of books??? She was even more than willing to raid ten more libraries in a single day if a meat jerky is at stake.

Mu Lingxi felt quite bad for threatening Guinevere with food. But she had no other choice but to do that.

Considering Guinevere’s spoiled brat attitude, Mu Lingxi knew more than anyone else that she will have a hard time asking the other party to do something for her.

If she really wanted to make the baby snow dragon do as she bids, then she has to learn how to balance the carrot and the stick properly.

Besides, she needs as much help that she could get to finish reviewing all of the books in their library.

It was already a blessing in disguise itself that she got two talking pets to help her.

Or else, she might going to end up exhausting all the life force stored inside her body without even finishing half of the books in the library.
