Everyone Else Has a System

Chapter 204 The Librarian#2

"Lyrica, as the name suggests, is a race adept in using sounds. Their way of talking and using magic are sound dependent, and most of their lifetime they live in places which are extremely quiet.

Though dependent upon sound, they are vulnerable to it as well because under normal conditions, a loud sound from a car crash or perhaps someone shouting really hard is enough to destroy an entire city of Lyrica.

Henceforth the reason why they are found only in quiet places. However, as they grow stronger with the help of their special System, they can adapt to loud sounds as well, but that is rare for the current situation in the world.

Hmmm… about their special features, they are adept in making sound artefacts and weapons related to sound and they also are perfect assassins because of a special ability the stronger Lyrica possess," I recalled the information about Lyrica a little before turning at Cristine as I spoke,

"The amount of information I have is a lot, so it would be better if you ask specific questions rather than me explaining everything at once."

However, rather than being asked any questions, all of them just stared at me blankly….

"You are making this up, aren't you?" asked Gloria with a face of disbelief and everyone else just observed me with… a dumbfounded face as well.

"You really do know everything, don't you?" Clair spoke and Cristine nodded before Eliza asked,

"Is there anything you don't know, Aidan?"

She was really polite with her words right now and Gloria, a bit taken aback with everyone's statement, spoke out loud,

"Wait! Wait! Wait! Why are you all taking his words as it is? None of us know about such a race, do we? And isn't it all a myth… isn't it?"

Though everyone sighed pitifully as they looked at Gloria, who wanted at least one person to take her side.

She turned to Variel, who just looked at her with the same expression she was making, and then

"He is right. But I do wonder how you know all that?" An aged voice came from a distance and everyone turned to the stairs from where a beautiful lady was coming down.

"Momma!" Erfina moved towards that woman with a smiling face.

"Head Librarian," Clair stood up and bowed as she introduced her and Head Librarian nodded in return before she turned at me,

"The information about Lyrica is highly classified even to the most famous people of this world and looking at you, I believe you know why as well."

I nodded as I answered," they are being hunted left and right… might become extinct at this rate, won't they?"

She narrowed her eyes and said,"So may I ask why are you telling everyone all this without so much as a second thought?"

"Well, I know about them, have met them as well. Kind of a deal, I made with them a long time ago, which allowed me to tell anything about them to anyone I want… it was an interesting deal, you know? Wanna hear about it?" I spoke as I smiled at her and everyone turned at me and then at her as she spoke.

"Would be delighted to hear the details."

Hearing her words, everyone turned at me and I pondered a little before I muttered,

"Hmmm… I guess… There should not be really much of a problem…"

'Since I could be meeting them within the next 2 months anyway,' I thought as I looked at Variel and Gloria before sighing a little as I turned towards the Head Librarian.

"Close the doors first. It may have looked like I was telling the secrets without any care in the world, but I kind of wasn't… so… Close the doors of the library and create a secluded place," I spoke and the Head Librarian nodded before creating walls of black veil around us.

If I remember correctly, this spell allowed the user to hear, see or sense anything on the outside, but those outside of the veil won't be able to even feel this place. It will look like an empty area for those who are outside.

Everyone then turned at me, and I started speaking,

"Illusion Magic: The Tell Tale's Magic," and a bright multicoloured multidimensional hologram came in front of us, which felt more alive than those around us. Except Eliza, Clair and Cristine. Everyone looked at me with a dumbfounded expression and I just sighed before speaking.

"I have a few artefacts."

That hologram then took the shape of a humanlike being with its skin blue and its eyes completely solid like a blue-coloured rock. It had strange fin-like structures all over its body and instead of ears, it had a small knob.

"His name is Arice, a Lyrica I met a long time ago. Back in the days, there used to be war, of which I cannot speak, in which Lyrica took part in. Arice, was one of the farmers, whose son took part in the war, and Ari… well let's say he wasn't in favour of that.

Still, like a hot-blooded young warrior, he took part and gloriously died in the battle which kind of ticked off Arice… he was mad furious… he almost lost his sanity that day when he heard the news.

And his anger… opened up an evolutionary path for him… which wasn't really the best thing that happened to both Lyrica and their enemies…. The Song Dancer… it's what he evolved into…" I kept speaking as I changed the features of Aric.

His blue coloured skin turned darker, his blue rock eyes turned pearly grey and the knobs like ears turned into pointed needles with a golden helical ring covering it. If the previous one was like a calm and cool lake, then this new being in front of was like a storm that would engulf anyone in its way.

"This one was the first Evolved Lyrica.. The one everyone feared… because of whom the danger level of the entire Lyrica race reached a new threshold," I spoke as I recalled the next bits of information from my memories.
