He tells me to search for information about myself, promising to grant my wish if I do, stating that I’ll understand various circumstances. Is this why he boldly instructed me to search for information about myself?
Because he knows I can’t find any information about myself?
I held back a sigh about to escape. If I sigh, the children may look back at me again. I forced myself to focus on the book once more.
‘How can I find even a small clue?’
If there is no information about the name Sehelus…
I lifted my head to look at the bookshelf. The tucked in the lower part caught my eye conspicuously. It was within arm’s reach, so I pulled it out.
‘A small clue… Sehelus clearly said he chose the previous Tower Master. Maybe there is information about that?’
I quickly flipped through the history book. From the very beginning when the Tower was built to the events that unfolded within it, it was all densely recorded.
And there I found a brief page about how the previous Tower Master Teslo came into power.
And who voted for it.
‘Strong One. Helion.’
As he had said, the names of the Strong One, the Old One, the New One, the Proficient One, and the One Facing Death were listed. But the name Sehelus was not there.
I thought it might be incorrect information, but except for the name of the Strong One not being Sehelus, the rest was as he had said.
Those were the exact names he told me. That made it all the more strange.
‘Did he use a different name? Was Sehelus… actually named Helion?’
He introduced himself as Sehelus and the Emperor also knew him as Sehelus. But now it seems that even that was incorrect.
Helion. That thought crossed my mind that it could be his name.
‘Should I search again with the name Helion?’
Meanwhile, the children who had been reading became bored, or so it seemed, as they buried their faces in the book and fell asleep.
I looked at the children for a moment. Like rabbits in a rabbit hole, they were tangled up and sleeping together. Round heads, chubby cheeks protruding.
‘Children are prettiest when they sleep, they say. Seems to be true.’
I grinned and once again picked up the large book I had put down earlier.
And there I found the name Helion.
However, that was all the information. Whether because they had to contain so many people’s stories, or perhaps at the time, there was not much information about Helion, the description was exceedingly brief.
“Is this all…?”
An introduction unbefitting the name of the Strong One. Once again, I found myself searching for another person, Rediac.
I thought it was a brief description of Helion, but it wasn’t.
The descriptions of people were all brief. Suppressing my rising irritation, I took out [An Easy History of the Mage Tower Vol. 2].
The end neatly wrapped up as a Mage Tower advertisement. The story about the false eternity was nagging at me.
False eternity? The problem was that none of the three books I had referred to mentioned it, so I needed to fetch another book.
‘Of course it won’t be written! It says to look at Volume 3 for false eternity!’
For a moment, my irritation flared up. No wonder there were dozens of volumes of An Easy History of the Mage Tower.
Clearly they’re selling books this way. Fragmenting the stories and writing them in different books.
“Turns out, the detailed history is in Mage Tower’s chronicles, but they cut it short in this blasted Easy History of the Mage Tower just to sell books. Given that the publisher is the Mage Tower, it’s credible, isn’t it!”
I expressed my anger quietly so as not to wake the children.
“Hmm hmm.”
It was then. Suddenly, a sound of someone clearing their throat came from somewhere.
“What’s this…….”
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
