Chapter 150 Do you need any help?

Next day, Kyle woke up in the afternoon. He took a bath and left the dorm with Bia.

After the theoretical exam was over, all the students who were learning day and night were now sleeping or resting.

The practical exam would be held the day after tomorrow that's why Kyle went to the library. He was feeling a little bitter because Elder Han didn't help him when Liam was torturing him with his extreme training.

'Well, I will forgive the old man temporarily because he is my free potion maker and I need to learn about Arrays.'

Kyle shook his head and threw the matter of revenge in the back of his mind.

He entered the library and the familiar librarian nodded at him. Kyle looked at the old man.

The dark circles underneath the librarian's eyes have become more thicker. His old face was pale. One could see from his facial expression he hadn't slept for a long time.

'The Academy is working him too hard.'

Kyle's eyes darted at the old man.

"Sir, do you need any help?"

He said with a serious expression. The Academy was huge but the staff working inside the Academy was ridiculously low because if they hired someone strong casually it would increase the possibility of a mole from other Kingdoms to enter the Academy.

The old man gazed at Kyle. It was the first time someone asked him this question. He had been working inside the library for two months but because he didn't have any assistance he had to do everything himself.

While staring at Kyle, a brilliant idea popped inside his head. He looked at him with a mysterious smile.

"Now that you said it. I think I need a little help."

Kyle blinked his eyes. Within a second, the old man jumped out from the reception and handed him a thick register.

"I will close the upper floors because I can't leave them open If I am not present. Even though the possibility of any student coming to the library is very low because they will be tired after the exam. Still, if someone comes just tell them to leave because the library is close."

"I will come back soon. You just need to sit inside the reception and wait for my return."

The old man said hurriedly and before Kyle could reply he dashed toward the stairway leading to the library next floor. With a swift motion, he activated the array and closed the second-floor entrance.

After he was done, he gazed at Kyle and instantly disappeared from the library.

'I can finally rest! Haha.'

Kyle looked at the librarian fading back. Even Bia who was sitting on top of his head raised her brow.

"So, I just need to sit here?"

Kyle mumbled and gazed at the thick register. It was used to register the names of those who took or bought anything from the Library.

With a sigh, he sat inside the reception and placed the register in front of himself.

"Well, I just need to wait until he comes back. I am free anyway so it's fine."

Bia started flying and sat on top of the reception desk. She gazed at Kyle.

-'Why do I feel like he went away after dumping the work on you?'

Kyle looked at Bia and then looked at the various bookshelves present around him.

"It's okay. We should wait for a while."

He randomly grabbed a book from a nearby bookshelf and started reading while keeping an eye on the library entrance.

Just like the old man said no one entered the library for the first few hours but when the afternoon sun started leaving the horizon two male students wearing blue uniforms entered the library.

Kyle popped his head from behind the pile of books he read while waiting for the old man.

'Is he back?'

He was getting bored and tired while doing nothing. The old man said he would return soon but it's been more than 4 hours since he left. Even after such a long time he was nowhere to be seen.

'I just asked to help for the sake of politeness. Who could have thought this old man would take advantage of me!'

Kyle looked at the library entrance. The two students who entered had three white lines present on their chest, indicating they were his senior.

The student's gaze also landed on Kyle but when they saw his appearance they frowned.

One of them instantly arrived in front of him with narrowed eyes. He had peach hair with black eyes.

"Who are you? Where's the librarian?"

He was a third-year student. He and his friend encounter a unique monster while completing their mission. The teachers were busy that's why he wanted to find some knowledge regarding that monster inside the library.

The other student also arrived in front of Kyle with curious eyes.

Kyle stood up. Bia was sitting behind the books that's why the new arrival didn't notice her.

"Hello, seniors. I am Kyle. The librarian went to do something important. He asked me to sit here until he comes back."

The duo looked at Kyle suspiciously because they were not able to sense anything from him.

The peach-haired boy frowned but decided to believe Kyle because the Academy was heavily guarded. There was no way anyone could trespass without getting caught.

"Alright. We just want to see some books about monsters and will leave after we are done."

Kyle hurriedly stopped the duo.

"I'm sorry seniors you can't enter inside right now. The Librarian said to not let anyone in until he comes back."

The peach-haired youth narrowed his eyes. He looked at Kyle from top to bottom.

"When will the librarian come back?"

"I don't know he just said he will be back soon."

"We will wait until he comes back."

"That..."

Kyle wanted to refuse but the duo just dragged some chairs and sat beside the reception.

They waited beside Kyle who sat in the reception with an annoyed expression.

The other boy sitting beside the peach-haired boy looked at Kyle.

"Your name is Kyle, right? My name is Richard and he is Jones."

Kyle gazed at the duo and nodded. They waited together and soon the sun was nowhere to be seen as dark clouds appeared on the horizon.

Kyle was cursing inwardly because the old man was still nowhere to be seen.

On the other hand, Richard and Jones were regretting their decision to stay inside the library.

At midnight, Kyle finally saw someone entering the library.

'Finally, he is back! I can leave now!'

Kyle stood up and hurriedly approached the person who entered the library but he stopped when he saw the face of the person.

"Master?"

Elder Han looked at Kyle. He was just passing by and decided to sleep inside the secret room for a while because he was a little tired.

"What are you doing here?"

Kyle sighed but then his eyes lit up. He gazed at Elder Han with a serious expression and hurriedly told him everything.

Elder Han frowned but then he shook his head.

'Taking care of such a huge library is indeed hard. I will ask George to hire some more people to take care of the library.'

"Master I remember something important so I will take my leave."

Elder Han was thinking when Kyle grabbed Bia who was lazing behind the books and hurriedly fled the library while laughing inwardly.

'I am finally free! I took revenge on the old man as well! hehe.'

"Huh?"

Elder Han blinked his eyes he wanted to stop Kyle but the latter was too fast.

'Did he just run away?'

He didn't know how to react. He was here to rest not to work as a guard for the library!

While Elder Han was thinking what to do his gaze landed on Richard and Jones who were dumbfounded when Kyle just ran away without any notice.

"Kids."

Richard and Jones looked at the old Librarian. They gulped nervously because for some reason they knew they messed up.

They wanted to run away like Kyle because sitting inside the library the whole day was very tiring but before they could Elder Han grabbed them with an evil smile.

"I have some work for both of you."

Elder Han spoke gently but the duo only felt goosebumps all over.

They were put behind the reception by Elder Han who just disappeared after asking them to keep an eye on the library.

The duo wanted to cry because even after the night passed and the next day arrived no one came to their rescue. They could do nothing but stare at the bookshelves with regretful eyes.

.....

After leaving the library, Kyle went back to his dorm but to his surprise Nine, Alec and Carcel were standing in front of his door.

While he was walking, Alec's gaze landed on him. With hurried steps, the trio arrived in front of Kyle.

Nine gazed at Kyle.

"Bro, We were going to leave because even after I knocked on your door a few times no one answered."

"You know nowadays it's so rare to see your face!"

He put his arm on Kyle's neck with curious eyes.

"What are you busy with anyway? Did you also secretly find a girlfriend!"

Kyle gazed at Nine with a raised brow. The word 'also' was very suspicious.

"I am not sure about myself but it's seemed you found one."

Nine chuckled and wore a proud expression.

"Of course. I am not lonely like you three! I am a charming young man all the ladies would want to acquire but unfortunately, it's too late because I am already taken! Hahaha"

Kyle clicked his tongue but then a smirk appeared on his face.

"I am waiting for the 50,000 mana stones you owned me."

Nine smiles vanished as he stepped back with wide eyes.

"I don't owe you anything! The results are not out yet!"

He protested but Kyle just shrugged his shoulders because there was no way he would get a bad grade. The paper was too easy!

After grumbling for a while, Nine threw the matter at the back of his head and looked at Kyle with sparkling eyes.

"Bro, The practical exam is the day after tomorrow that's why we are going outside the Academy to have some fun! We already took a mission about killing some low-rank monsters because the first-year students can't leave without permission. Let's go together."

Kyle thought for a while and nodded. He was bored so it wasn't bad to do something fun sometimes.

He gazed at the Alec and Carcel. He didn't show it but he stepped back when Alec approached him. He wasn't hostile toward the latter and still considered him a friend but after knowing about that strange thing called 'System' and Alec's ability to see through things, he was a little cautious around him.

"Okay let's go."

After Kyle agreed, all of them left the Academy.
