Chapter 209
That Person is Real
Day One.
In the end, Arin didn’t receive anyone’s favor.
She was hungry, but not yet to the point of death.
And there were enough food and ingredients.
“……”
She thought about moving locations.
‘But it would be useless.’
If someone already knew about this secret chamber.
No matter where she moved, they would find her.
Arin could only pray inwardly.
Please.
She hoped that the benefactor written on the paper wouldn’t torment her like the others.
Creak!
Closing the door and lighting the candle.
She began to read the selected books.
「Reasons Why Magical power Talent Doesn’t Improve」
「Basic Fire Attribute Magic」
「Understanding Magic Formulas」
All written in Ancient Magic.
Books she had found deep within the library.
Clean books untouched, as if no one had ever read them.
‘……I don’t know if this will be of any use.’
Without a true mentor, all she could do.
Was to forge her own path.
Day Three.
Arin didn’t sleep much.
She only fell asleep for three hours a day.
‘If I don’t have talent, I have to make up for it with effort.’
Arin picked up a book again.
Her emaciated arms trembled as if the book was heavy.
Thud!
She leaned the book against the wall and opened it.
“……”
Ancient Magic was profound and difficult, requiring at least three readings to even begin to understand.
How much time had passed?
Thump!
‘Again.’
On the first day, the second day, and today as well.
The unknown benefactor had brought food and ingredients to the front of the secret chamber.
They had replaced the bloated food with fresh items and even brought drinking water.
