Waking up Val found himself in a large queen size bed with Isaac next to him. Taking a few minutes to look at him and just smile he decided to wake him up. Leaning close to him he gave him a kiss on the forehead as he spoke softly to him. "Sweetheart it is time to get up. If you don't soon then I will have to wake you up by force."
Rolling over onto his back Isaac stared at the ceiling before speaking.
"Don't you dare use force. Last time I woke up covered in ice with a candle up my nose."
Chuckling, Val gave Isaac another kiss before getting out of bed and heading to the bathroom adjoining their bedroom.
Isaac soon heard the sound of running water as he got up soon after. Heading into the bathroom he washed his face and brushed his teeth. Val soon finished his shower as they both headed out.
Finding William in the hallway waiting for them he greeted them before leading them to another room where he had prepared breakfast. Sitting down Isaac and Val ate while complimenting William's cooking skill.
As the two ate William spoke. "So after you finish eating you need to send out more invitation keys. Then I will explain to you some basic information before we can finally begin your training to use energy."
Nodding with their mouths full of food they both continued to eat enjoying the amazing breakfast that William made for them. After around 20 minutes of eating while chatting they finished up their meal.
They tried to help William clean up but he just snapped his fingers causing everything to vanish. Both Isaac and Val looked at him in shock as he just chuckled before leading them out of the room.
Heading to the key invitation room Isaac went to go through with the invitation process when he realized that Val couldn't touch the keys. Asking William he soon got his answer. "You need to raise his authority level in the library."
"To do so summon the book that is in the tattoo in your left hand."
Focusing on the book symbol on the back of his hand Isaac felt the connection to the book. Thinking of bringing it out he soon felt a weight in his left hand. Opening the book the first page was his rank, age, and some other info that Isaac didn't really understand. Turning the page he saw a list of library leaders which he figured meant the workers since he saw Val and William along with their authority level which was basic. Raising it up to the highest level both Val and William looked at their left hand as a book tattoo appeared on it.

"This is the first time I have been given this level of authority." William said with a smile. "Thank you for trusting me Isaac. I promise not to let you down."
"Don't worry about it William I trust you. Now let us all summon some new guests." All 3 of them picked up a key as 2 extra key holes appeared in the wall. They all put the keys in before turning them and speaking. [Under my authority as a keeper of the library I send out this invitation]
As they finished speaking their keys did different things. Isaac's key acted like his first one. It glowed golden before turning into a beam of light and shooting off into the void. Val's key began to shimmer gold before crumbling into dust and floating off. While William's key began to spark with electricity before morphing into a card shape and shooting off into the void leaving a beam of light in its path.
"Well that was cool!" Isaac said with a childish smile plastered on to his face. "So what's next William?"
"I will be explaining how to unlock energy gathering so you may grow past rank 0. Although before that I have something to offer you both. I am in possession of multiple divine bloodlines and I would like to know if you are interested in absorbing one of them. They will help you grow stronger at a faster rate but you will no longer be just human. You will become like demi-humans. You will take on some features of the creatures. Just be warned that it will be extremely painful to you."
"Well what kind of bloodlines do you have?" Val asked with a shimmer in his eye.
"Way too many to name. But if you can think of it I most likely have it. I have been collecting various bloodlines across the universes for an extremely long time."
"Do you have kitsune?" Isaac asked while acting like an overly excited kid. "If so I really want that one! It has been a dream of mine for many years."
"I do have kitsune. I think the best option for you would be the royal elemental kitsune. They can use every element but it is harder for them to increase their elemental mastery level. It takes a longer time when they get to a higher level."
"What about you Val? Do you want one of the bloodlines?"
"This is gonna be a long shot but you you have a dragon bloodline that can use all other dragon abilities? Something to rule over all other dragons with their might Val asked sounding nervous. Dragons seem so amazing to me and I have always wanted to be with one as a friend or I want to be one."
"Ah I understand. What I can offer is the Royal Rainbow Chromatic dragon bloodline. It comes with everything you asked for plus a few bonuses. The downside is the same as Isaac's though. Also both of you will progress slower than other kitsune or dragons but faster than normal humans or creatures with no bloodlines."
Sitting in the main library while having this conversation William told the two of them to lay down on the ground before waving his hand creating a magic circle around them before speaking.
"Alright prepare yourselves because this will hurt a lot. I will make sure you don't die so if you fall unconscious I will make sure you are safe. Alright now let us begin."
Before they could change their minds or tell him to stop William shapeshifted his hands into syringes filled with blood that glimmered with faint golden specks. They both braced themselves as William plunged the syringes into their chests and right into their hearts. They gasped in pain but as the blood drained out of the syringe and into their hearts their gasp turned into a blood curdling scream.
