Chapter 06 - What the hell is this?

Author's Spot: Hi hi hi!

I came here once more to show you all that I can write more now!

I had this done for a few days already and I was just waiting to get at the X-mas so that I could post everything together as a present.

Have a mad read!

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

Anselm PoV

On the library I gave back the book I had taken home, it was a book about calculus and the idea and the concept was good, but it had it’s limits. I need to know more, the time travel equation, how to input the data needed to travel across time and other things.

I had thought about using speed to travel to the past, but it has a problem, what in the world would be fast enough to break the barrier of time? I would probably be able to create the needed machine to do it, but the equation… I think that will be the most difficult thing to do.

I continued my research on the math section, but… what can I say… it looks like this timeline worked a little more trying understand the world using math. They had a way to ‘see’ mana too and to explain the laws of the world using calculus is truly a good idea. This way we can find and create new things using that as a base if I remember correctly it is called physics and I wonder why they aren’t giving this knowledge now… probably they need to give more math before reaching the point where someone can understand it easily.

The alchemy in this timeline is working fast too. But well…. 3000 years in the future, they ought to have more technics to do things. I wasn’t really reading them now, just forming a pile so that I could start reading it in the future. As I was gathering it, some people would ask if I needed help to put them back. And when I said that I was finding books to read and was gathering this amount because it would be faster this way and I would put them back after that. They left after shaking their heads. “Normally people get just one book to read.” I heard someone saying.

I have got three books of alchemy, physics and calculus until midday. I left them open in a table with my ID on the middle showing that they all are mine and I was reading them. I go up to eat my lunch. It had two escalators going up in a circle way to the top. It had some stops making rooms and rooms after a few steps, but the massive structure was beautiful.

I go up using the Dyanos as a flying carpet. Why should I tire myself with pointless activity while I can use them as that? I go up to the last floor. This thing is bigger than I would had expected, it was seven store tall building and on the top it had a glass door. It was probably used to block the noises and the food to go down. As I was observing the door I find that my implication was true. The door had been enchanted to not leak noises or to permit the food to go down. I enter the place and small noises start to assault me. Some people talking about this and that, I shrug and go to the counter. I ate a light breakfast, so if I want to eat something that wouldn't make me feel hungry easily. So that I wouldn't need to stop my reading sphere. I choose a plate with rice, meat, and some vegetables. I had to wait a little and what can I say... The food was delicious and to drink I got a glass of orange juice.

I ate and I didn't need to pay, because it is included in the payment of the school. I head down to read the books I had taken.

Reading through the books I learnt that magic can be used in alchemy to purify the items and products created using it and a few of the chemical elements that together would create good and bad reactions.

The physics books talked how to use the required items in certain situations to understand the point on the question and a small hint appeared there. That is it, physics is the point needed to finish it, but where is it... I should be able to create the needed equation if I gather more knowledge, I know I can do it, but... What should I do here?

Without any other idea I go the books about calculus, there I can see the explanation about limits, derived, integrated number and others types of different equations. 'It is here! I can feel it!' I thought while reading the applications in real life.

It was when my Dyanos sent me a signal, it was 6PM and I needed to go to the Principal office now. I get up seeing the books I was reading until now. These were the things I need, but where is the other books? These was the only books that I had found about the subjects.

But alchemy has some more. Almost all the books here is some kind of story about the kingdoms and the identity and how some kingdoms were created, some were stories about the other continents where demons, elves, dwarves and beastmen lived.

I shake my head. The books about tech was so little... And it is outdated! All my technology is already more advanced than what they had discovered in 3000 years! How is it possible... I don't know. I thought they would be able to advance the technology already... Or this and the other books I want are in the special zone that just a few selected people can enter? Should I ask about it to the Principal?

I walk to the office while deep in thought. I could felt someone staring at me, but I won't mind them. I am one of the most brilliant mind in this school. Why should I bow to the stupidity and the brutality of this barbaric people?

But one gaze is different... I could feel it... But who would gave me such a gaze?

????? PoV

The show he did on the entrance ceremony was unique. He refused the President with a smile on his face showing that he had more power than anyone here. The Principal had a little hint of fear when he announced the ending of the boring ceremony.

That purple eyes had a strange charm. How can I explain it? His eyes have insanity, courage and the way he look down to everyone.

His body is slim and he doesn't have too much muscles. He look like some kind of old sir if you look at his hair but his eyes and face shows that he is young. 15 or 16 years old.

This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.

I was thinking about him when I enter my classroom and find him sitting on his strange things right beside the teacher's desk.

His face when reading is cute. His eyelashes are long, his insane smile is cute. It looks like a small kid that found a thing to play with.

And when the teacher entered he created a new show once more. He made the teacher angry with just a few words and after that he made him look like a doll left on the floor.

What can I say about him? His eyes, face, demeanor, aura... Everything is unique. He doesn't look like a prince, he appears to be more fit to be a mad alchemist than a prince. But what was the things he had pulled out on the class? It looked like the things we had found in an ancient ruins hundreds years ago but until now no one was able to understand them.

On the next day he didn't appeared in the class... But I had seen him on the campus during the sundown and he was whistling a strange music... for some reason I had find it amusing.

That night I had a difficult time to sleep. Every time I closed my eyes I could see his face. I could feel my face getting hot and it was probably red as my hair.

Before me is the test the kid Andrei had talked was, what can I say... It is so perfectly made that I think even the teachers got surprised about it. Every detail in its place and impeccable handwriting. The questions about every subject was too perfect! But as they said to me he couldn't have copied it, all of them was with him, except for the the teacher of magic. He had to give classes during the test and it had taken him two hours to finish the test.

"Principal, he was the only student on the class and we all were looking at him. He haven't did any strange movements and it would be impossible for someone to cheat in this test. I was using detect magic to see if he was using dishonest methods, but he was too clean! And he was humming while writing!" Gregory, the monsterology teacher said. He has experienced eyes and can see when someone is cheating in a test or lying.

I can see that all of the are surprised to find such a gem inside our academy. I am surprised as well, I had already known that he wasn't normal because of the small madness glow inside his eyes. Now... he is more intelligent than the teachers! I had asked them if they had to look for the answers themselves. And he had one day to read the books! And he answered it so perfectly that it looked like a god had appeared and this is one of his embodiment!

They left after giving me the results and their reports saying what he did during the test. It was a miracle that he got it. I would never believe if someone was to say it to me before. In two days someone had already completes a year of study in this academy and he is coming to get it after the 6PM… I should give him something… let’s ask him what he want and if I can ‘use’ his abilities it will help us develop faster. Our technology is a little too old if we compare it with the things he had used and shown until now.

I was lost in thoughts when my door was knocked. It was the prince Livius, he was wearing the same type of clothing as before. His eyes insanity was there, it looked like it had grow in this lasts days but it was restrained. His mind clearly wasn’t totally corrupted by it.

“Your teachers had left a little ago leaving your tests to me. I could say that I wasn’t expecting someone to show such great knowledge in two days. And it looks like you just read the books. Is it true?” I ask to him, I need to be sure about it. If his parents treated them differently than the others I should ask why they did it.

“Since I was small I would need to learn by myself, as I had no one to explain things to me. Now I just need to read to get to understand the subject and if needed some experiments.” I had wave to him to sit in the chair before me and he took it without waiting more than a few seconds. “I don’t really needed to cam here to get the tests as I know that I got the score needed.”

‘How can he be this confident on his ability? Is this insanity or something else?’ I thought to myself showing him the results. He takes them and with a flick of his hand fire appears in his hand.

“Don’t burn them!” I stop him before he starts. And the fire dies. He had a strange light in his eyes when the fire appeared. “I need to archive such a thing, and I want to grant you a thing in this academy, and if it is in my power I should do it to you.” I say to him and his face lights up.

“I want to be able to access the special place in the library and I don’t want to be disturbed while I am there.” His eyes were shining… ‘And what he want in that place?’ I thought to me but well… if I can manipulate him a little more…

“I can do that but you will need to do a test and I may need to know what are you reading and doing in that place. Do you agree with this?” The prince looks at me while thinking. His eyes were showing that he was finding it unpleasant.

“I agree, but I will be the one who will choose what can be shown or not.” He is really a difficult kid… but this will prove to be useful so I’ll leave it be.

“You can have access, give me your ID card for a few seconds.” He takes it from his pocket and I give a little bit of my mana and it change colors.

“Now you can go to the basement without being stopped. Oh, and you can’t take the books out from there.” I give it back to him saying the ‘new’ rules. He nods and a wide and perilous smile appear in his face.

‘I think… I gave the only thing I should never had given to him.’ With this thought running in my mind I give my farewell to him.
