Unwinding

--------------------

Both Val and Isaac helped William clean up the library by sweeping and putting books back in place. William told Isaac to make sure he checks out the special book in his hand. Isaac nodded saying he would do it later.

Once they were all done they headed towards the employees only door. William told them that there was a faster way to travel through the various rooms than walking through the hallways. William grabbed the doorknob and simply thought of the dining room. Right after the door shimmered a bit and when he opened it it led to the dining room.

They all walked in and sat down as William brought out some food which they quickly ate like they were starving. They didn't talk much since Val and Isaac were feeling really exhausted and mentally tired.

Soon after they helped William clean up before he said he had to go do something. When they asked what he needed to do William just said he couldn't tell them yet.

They just ignored it for now since they were too tired and just headed towards the bathroom to take a shower.

In the bathroom they both stripped naked and headed into the shower turning on the hot water and just standing underneath it without speaking. Both of them had a lot on their mind and were too tired to speak with each other. They simply washed up in silence before getting out and walking to their bedroom.

They put on some simple clothes to relax in consisting of just some shorts and a t-shirt before climbing into bed and relaxing.

Isaac summoned the book in his hand and decided to look at it with Val. They noticed there were two new sections. There was one for the members of the library where there were two people listed although they were marked as not here. The other one is a section showing gathered energy and how much energy per day they are generating which is currently at 2/day. It seemed that with the copper level membership they generate 1/day per person.

Taking a closer look Val noticed a section showing total gathered energy which was at 1,000 and also a place where they can purchase upgrades.

There were various elemental rooms, a cultivation room, medical bays and more. Each room for lvl 1 was 500 energy points.

"Which ones do you think we should purchase? I am thinking of the cultivation room and this greenhouse." Isaac said looking towards Val.

"The cultivation room would be good. We could charge library members energy coins to use it so our profit would increase. We don't really need the elemental rooms at the moment or the medical bay since nobody is injured and it is unlikely that they will be. The summoning room I think would be the most useful since it could help us get some help in the library so everything isn't on me, you, and William. "

"I didn't even see the summoning room?!" Isaac said sounding shocked. "Probably cause I am just mentally tired."

"Well also I am just better at managing things like this." Val said with a smirk. "It did used to be my job back on earth after all."

"Yeah that's true. What would I do without you."

"Oh you know probably fall apart and not even be able to find your ass." Val said back giving Isaac a kiss.

"Yeah you are probably right." Isaac said while laughing. "Now let's purchase these tomorrow. For now let's get some sleep because I am exhausted."

"Yes agreed." Val said while smiling. He tucked himself under the blankets with Isaac and cuddled him close taking the big spoon position. Both of them quickly drifted off to sleep while holding each other.

William's POV

Once he finished eating with Val and Isaac he quickly left returning to the main library. Heading to a normal part of the wall near the employees only door he pressed a panel on the wall causing it to slide away revealing a few switches. He flipped the first one before closing the panel back. The wall shapeshifted into a door. William opened it leading to a long and completely dark stairway leading downwards. William summoned a small ball of light in his hand and began walking downstairs.

After a couple minutes of walking down he stepped into a large hall filled with statues. Each statue showed a pair of people all of them being of different species but they all looked very similar. One was holding a book while a crown with different jewels sat on their head. The other held a staff with jewels rotated around the orb on the top of the staff. They stood hand in hand and showed no fear on their faces.

William walked down the hall heading to the large pair of statues at the far end of the hall where the oldest looking statues stood.

He got down on his knees and spoke to himself. "The cycle has begun again. I wish this time is different from every other time. I am growing exhausted from having to do this every time."

"I wish you two would come back." William said touching the base of the two large statues. Right after he pulled out a bouquet of flowers and left them at the feet of the statues before getting back up and heading out. As he exited the eyes of the largest pair of statues seemed to shed a tear in sadness and pain before the hall went back to it's normal state.
