10 THE REWARD
"Brother, aren't you making it too hard for him?"
asked Maria, after seeing that Robin has left the dining hall.
"What are talking about Sis.? "
asked back, Peter with a confused look.
"You took about three months to finish those books. Now you are asking him to finish it in one month. Isn't it too much. "
asked Maria with a questioning frown.
Hearing that Peter smiled and said,
"What do you know? My master also gave me two months as a deadline. And because of that, I finished it in three months. I have taught that kid how to read and write in NONAME and I know his capacity. So I have to give him this deadline in order to develop him further. You won't understand it, because you don't have a disciple "
"Hehe... Is that so? I think I can get a disciple easily now. "
Said Maria while looking toward the library.
Seeing that Peter panicked,
" No Sis, you can't. As you know my Master has only me as a disciple and I have only one Master, the same thing applies to him. We shouldn't break this custom that is going for about ten thousand years. That was what Master told me when I said I'm gonna take in a disciple."
" Yaya... I know, I just joked with you."
grunted Maria.
Peter relaxed after hearing Maria say it was just a joke Because he knew Robin is a pervert and for him getting a Master like Maria is a holy dream. He is one hundred percent sure, that Robin will definitely accept her as Master and disown him if she asked Robin.
"And I gave him one month because I think he is more talented than me. When I taught him, how to read and write. He learned it all in less than six months. So I think he can finish ten thousand books in a month"
said Peter with the pride of a Master.
''Only by fighting oneself can a person became stronger"
Hearing that Maria grunted even more as she stood up and left the dining hall.
As for Robin, he has been reading the books with complete immersion in it. While thinking to himself,
' I will finish this one month. '
After about 15 days, Robin has only read about three thousand books. Seeing the Robin who was still reading the books with great interest, Maria who stood about ten feet away from him said,
"Wow... He is faster than you. But still, look at his daily routine, he eats, he read, he sleeps... Doesn't he look like a puppet to you? Is this how a kid should be?"
" Nope, he looks like a committed person to me."
said Peter who stood beside her.
"Even though he has the commitment, he can't finish seven thousand books in 15 days," said Maria. She felt bad as Robin would be disappointed when the time comes.
Then she smirked to herself,
'I will motivate that, little pervert'
They having been standing there for about ten minutes, but Robin didn't even look at them once. He was totally into reading the books. As some books are written about war history and some a biography of great leaders. He had a single thought in his mind,
'Books are best friends'
This is not the first time Peter and Maria came for a visit. Every time they came to visit him in the last 15 days, it's the same.
So both of them just left him be.
But for Robin from the first day every time he finishes reading a book, he felt like his reading skills are improving rapidly. So he continuously read, even when some books were repetitive.
From the books, Robin came to understand the geographical location of the CELTIC. It isn't much different from what Peter told him before. But there was something different about the cultivation levels from what Peter has said. Peter just told him basic realms. But for every realm, they are further divided into three levels- low level, mid-level, and high level. For example, Robin is now an
Beginner Assassin-Low level.
Then comes
Beginner Assassin- mid-level and
Beginner Assassin- high level.
Now he understands why it took one hundred years for Peter to reach Grand Realm. But Robin doesn't know whether Peter is in the Grand realm low level, mid-level, or high level.
But he knows the level difference from a low level to a high level is greater.
And most important is the longevity of life. A Beginner realm can live for a hundred years. And it's gets doubled as your realm increases.
' A Mystic realm can live for 3200 years'
--------
Robin's reading speed didn't increase after reading two thousand books that are on the tenth day. For five days, he read one thousand books. But as he finished a total of three thousand books. He felt like a new skill is unlocked within him.
After that, his reading skill entered a new realm. His reading skill increased into fast reading.
Robin finished reading five thousand books in ten days.
--------
25th day
There were only one thousand and eight hundred books left now. Since he read 200 books on his first night here.
Looking at the remaining books in the rack, Robin thought,
' Five days for a thousand and eight hundred books, Will be easy pie. Hehe'
The reason for his happiness is because of a deal between him and Maria. On the fifteenth days of his assignment, Maria came to the library at night and met him. She said with a beautiful voice in his ears,
"If you can finish reading these books in 30 days, I will show you, my dress color."
And Robin knew what dress color she meant. So that has become his motivation for completing the task given by Peter.p
As Robin was thinking about these things with a lewd smile on his face, he heard Peter's voice,
"Robin, we are going out for work and will come after five days. The spirits will look after your foods and needs."
Hearing that Robin looked up and saw both Peter and Maria have dressed in formals.
Peter wore a formal red tuxedo.
Maria is not wearing her usual maid outfit. She is wearing a blue long gown, it's a sleeveless one, exposing most of her skin.
Looking at that Robin gulped. Seeing that, Maria said with a smiling face,
"It looks like you are going to win the deal. "
But she thought to herself,
'I will just beat him up if he asks for the reward.'
Peter asked,
"What deal? "
Robin said, as his face flushed.
"Nothing Master.... Have a safe trip. "
Seeing that, Peter chuckled and said,
"Okay, you take care. "
Peter thought to himself,
'Why is he having a perverted smile on his always.'
After they left Robin grinned to himself,
'At last, I will walk the path of reaching my harem. Hehe... Even though you are in Grand Realm, I will take you into my harem'
Hahaha...
Then Robin closed the door of the library and sat down. But he didn't read the books. Instead, he wanted to do something that he has been waiting for twenty days or to say for five years from the time he awakened in this world.
It was about the artifact, Angel gave him. After he entered this world, he tried a lot of times to call for the LIMITLESS ARTIFACT but it didn't respond to him. But after reading the books he came to an understanding before twenty days. That Old Artifact only reacts upon activating the magic inscription within them. And after only reaching the Beginner Realm can a person can produce magic. So that was the reason why the artifact didn't respond to him before.
As for the reason why he didn't try it out right after knowing about this information, is because of Peter and Maria. Those guys will definitely find him using the artifact, Angel gave him. And he can't explain to them how he got the artifact. So he waited to be alone and try it out.
'Now is the right time '
Then he tried to reach out to the LIMITLESS ARTIFACT, as he felt the connection to the artifact magic inscription, a black light enveloped him..... Robin can't feel a thing...
He blanked out.....
As the black light in the library disappeared, Robin couldn't be seen anywhere... He disappears with the black light.
