Fantastic Beasts of Records: Lecherous Prince Of The Sea

Chapter 2 Demons Of The Seas

?"Oh, shit!!!" My lips parted apart as I muttered subconsciously, with the scenes playing right in my head.

…....…..

"I told you didn't I, I am just here to take some books because I couldn't find the Ebook I wanted online" Wyatt said as he looked at the librarian behind the counter, even though the man looked to be at least passed his late fifties, Wyatt could see some vitality in his eyes as the man continued to plead with him to read his book.

"Please sir, I beg you take a look at my book, as a marine biologist, I am sure that you would love it" A man responded, begging continuously as he pushed the book into Wyatt's hands.

'It was my mistake. I shouldn't I told him about my profession as a marine biologist' Wyatt immediately shook his head at the passing thought in his head.

'What am I saying? I would have stayed here for a few hours if I hadn't told him about the books I was looking for and why I desperately needed so many of them'.

And most of all, he could repay the man for his help by bringing something delicious to eat the next time he comes by or needs to return the book since it was all he could afford.

But who would have taught that the only reason the man had gone so far was so that he could help him read and review his book.

And it wasn't just some few pages that he had to read, because if it were, then he would have at least reconsidered and given it a chance.

But looking at the humongous books in his hands that looked like it was about 20 cm x 28 cm with several thousand pages underneath them, Wyatt quickly became discouraged as he knew that he wouldn't even get passed the first few pages before he puts them down in boredom.

"Fine, even though you aren't going to read it, at least tell me why. Does the book cover not look pleasant enough? Or is there something about the appearance that stopped you from picking it up?" The man said as he looked at Wyatt attentively, hoping to pick up anything that could help him make the book a little better or more readable.

"It isn't the book cover" Wyatt said as he looked at the black-coloured book cover with various golden inscriptions drawn around it. And in the middle of its cover, the title of the book which was also written in a bright golden colour read 'Fantastic Beasts of Records'.

Although he liked the simplicity of its design and the strange uniqueness the book gave off, he just wasn't going to read something as big as that.

"It's just that I don't think that I can finish it and give you the review of it on time" Wyatt added.

"Is that the only reason?" The man asked, calming down after he has listened to Wyatt's reasoning for refusing to read his book.

"Yes" Wyatt said as he nodded his head immediately, thinking that the man has finally understood his reasons for not accepting the book.

"Then if it's like that, don't worry, I have all the time in the world. Even if you don't want to read it, at least read the ones you can as best as you can and write down the review in a booklet. And if you are unable to finish it before your death day, give It to your descendants and tell them the same thing until one of them finishes the book together with the review I need" The man said, not noticing Wyatt's expression that changed the more he opened his mouth.

"Whichever of your generation finishes the book, I will grant them a very big reward for doing such a marvellous thing for me and….".

"Enough…!!" Wyatt said, quickly interrupting the man as he could no longer listen to the man's nonsensical chatter.

"Are you indirectly insulting me?".

"What do you mean sir, I just…"

"Every day I walk up early in the morning just to go to job, I thought that I would be escaping the 9 to 5 dreaded work hours of every adult since I was doing the things I love as a marine biologist. But you know what happened one day" Wyatt said as he looked at the Liberian with grievance in his eyes.

Although he had no right to be angry at the man since all this wasn't his fault and the man was just begging him to review his book since he had mostly not found anybody else or they had dropped it and escaped immediately they saw how big it was.

But still, he needed someone to release all these pent-up emotions and pains that's been building up in him for several years now.

"Don't cry. Don't cry... . You are a man Wyatt, don't show your weakness" Wyatt said to himself as he sucked a snort that was unknowingly below his nose back in.

"One day, I went on fieldwork to further document the behavioural features of dolphins, which I had readily applied for since I wanted to see one of the most intelligent animals of the sea. And also my girlfriend had requested cute pictures of the dolphins as she too was a fan of them. And depending on the qualities of pictures and how good they were she would prepare something crazy for me that night"

"Of course, I knew what the crazy thing was after catching a glimpse of her perverted smile, and immediately knew that she had just used the dolphins as an excuse. But still, that didn't stop me from giving it my all and putting in my best efforts to take those pictures. But just when I had gotten in the water with my camera, one of those….. sniff!! Sniff!!" Wyatt added as he froze his face to avoid his tears from falling.

Even his eyes weren't blinking as he waited until the tears dried up from under his eyelids.
