The library

Weeks passed with Devon not going out of the house, Even Mae did not come to check on him, it was like she forgot about him completely not to mention Anne and Lina.

Mae sent someone to deliver his clothes and emblem with his name printed on it some weeks ago.

As a core tier Member his breakfast, lunch, and dinner were delivered straight to the living room so there wasn't any need for him to go to the Cafeteria.

There wasn't any need for him to step out of the house not until he got a disturbing message.

Thankfully she also assigned him a personal Maid who was attending to all his necessities.

"Failure equals deduction of contractor level by two."

"Timeframe remaining: Two and a half-day

It was until then, he decided to get out and find the damn library, passing through the back door because he could tell people were waiting for him at the front door.

You have to know entering a core tier member house without permission from the owner was punishable by death. Regardless of one status or power.

Passing through the back door, his hair was achilles gold and neatly arranged to perfection. His eyes had the same startling clarity as a mountain stream, and the lineament of his face was in a perfect proportion to each other.

He seemed molded from a different cast and had an androgynous look uncommon to most people. Lacquered and enameled by the sun, he radiated energy and brio. He was only 15 years old this year and yet he looked to be a youth of 18-19.

Devon stepped out of the back door.

"Oh, I almost forgot to put on my mask, that would have been bad." Devon said.

He always believed his beauty was a sin to mankind, from infancy to maturity, he had been too beautiful. To Devon, destiny decided to curse him with one thing and that was beauty.

His face was covered in mud the whole time he was with Mae, so she couldn't see his face clearly.

After asking people he saw left and right for the library direction he finally knew where it was.

Seeing someone putting on a mask was not a new thing to the high tier and core tier members and not being able to sense any celestial energy around someone didn't necessarily mean he or she was weak.

Sometimes it meant one wasn't strong to sense it around that person, especially when it was in the main compound. Who among them wasn't powerful enough to destroy an organization.

Arriving at the Library...

The Library here was divided into four floors, low-tier members are only able to access the first floor, mid-tier members could access the second floor, high-tier members on the third floor, and core-tier members had access to the last floor.

If not for the task he was given, Devon wasn't interested in going to the library because it was full of books.

Going straight up to the last floor

"Okay, Okay, let's get this done quickly this place is creeping me out."

He went around searching for books that picked his interest It took a while, but he finally found one. It was something about the history of the World.

Not like he had any choice, Devon picked the book and started reading it.

It was the battle between Gods and Demons that led to the World being split into three. The Underground World where there was abundant Celestial energy, The mortal world where there wasn't any energy, and finally the Demon World.

Long ago, there was just one world, the Gods and Demons lived together during those times there was both celestial and cosmic energy present in the world surprisingly they were equal. Be it in power or anything. Not until the Demon realized something.

Not all God's children could absorb celestial energy some were just plain even their life span was short just 2000 Years. The Gods referred to them as the cursed child and the Demon called them the best meal in the World.

The cursed child was the purest form of cosmic energy, by absorbing a cursed child they could reach a stage higher than they had ever reached before. Even monopolizing the world didn't seem impossible.

The gods got to know about this and led an all-out war, exterminating 80 percent of the Demon's lineage and the Demon's exterminating only 70 percent of the god's lineage. Who knew the Gods had a secret weapon, after battling for millions of years they both agreed on splitting the world but each ten thousand year war another war between the Gods and Demons will be held.

"Bullshit, Bullshit, which illiterate wrote this thing no energy in the mortal world screw you then how do you explain why my father is crazily strong."

Seeing someone shouting in a library was very disturbing, especially when the person is shouting at a book, but knowing you can't do anything about it was more frustrating. That black robe was like a warning sign.

After reading the second book, Devon realized it wasn't necessary to read the book to finish, he could just skim through it all that matters is having a little bit of understanding about it.

"Screw it, I still have one and a half days left."

*Ding*

"23 books already read, 27 remaining."

That annoying voice.....

Devon decided to call it a day, it was already getting late anyway. He brought out the map he told his maid to get him and arrived home still passing through the back door.

"Home sweet home."

A smile appeared on his face when he entered his living room, his food was already there neatly arranged with decent wine.

The food looked so tasty, of course, it was filled with celestial nutrients.

Not known to him a figure was watching him through the window and a smile appeared on the figure's face. The figure stood there for some minutes before finally disappearing from there.
