A Library With Hundreds of Thousands of Books, There Exists a Level Beyond That Of The Elemental Lord?

Arthur and Runa walked towards the library together.

At first, Runa led the way in front of Arthur, but he soon walked by Runa's side and occasionally glanced at the little maid beside him.

Arthur smiled and decided to tease Runa.

He believed that relationships needed to be nurtured slowly, and this was an opportune time to deepen their relationship.

Runa, who occasionally stole glances at Arthur's face, suddenly felt embarrassed and quickly averted her gaze.

She had just met Arthur's gaze and seen his smile.

As Runa looked away, her face turned red, reaching the tips of her ears.

Arthur noticed this and decided not to continue teasing her.

He knew she was a shy girl and didn't want to make her uncomfortable.

Together, they walked towards the library door.

Arthur couldn't help but marvel at the lavish decorations adorning the door in front of him.

Suddenly, Runa spoke up with a smile on her face: "Young master, we have arrived at the library."

Arthur nodded in acknowledgment but couldn't take his gaze away from the ornate door in front of him.

"The library in front of it must be more complete, and there are many books that can explain the situation of the elemental world clearly."

Arthur reflected on this and immediately opened the door in front of him.

Immediately, an amazing sight appeared in front of him.

The library was vast!

roughly dozens of times the size of the library in the previous mansion!

The bookshelves were neatly arranged with various signs for each type of book.

There were also guards guarding every corner of the library.

After all, this library must have stored various ancient books that had been lost!

Thinking of this, Arthur felt very refreshed.

Soon the two of them walked up to the librarian, and Runa explained Arthur's identity to him.

Upon hearing that, the librarian immediately ran over and approached Arthur.

"Greetings, young master." The librarian, who was a middle-aged man, bowed respectfully to Arthur.

Arthur immediately felt the strength of the person in front of him and was surprised.

"A nine-core elemental with an earth core!"

Arthur was really surprised that a librarian alone had such a powerful force!

"Many powerful elementals are hiding throughout this mansion."

"That's really terrible."

Arthur sighed in his heart and immediately spoke lightly.

"Alright, get up."

The librarian immediately raised his head and asked Arthur respectfully.

"Young master, what need do you have to visit the library?"

"Please let me know if you need anything from here."

Arthur nodded lightly, and his gaze returned to indifference.

"I want to read a book in this library."

Arthur spoke lightly to the librarian in front of him.

Immediately, the librarian said so respectfully.

"Yes, young master!"

"What kind of books do you want to read, young master?"

"I will prepare everything."

Arthur held his chin and thought.

Soon, he mentioned one by one what books he wanted to read.

"I want a book that explains about all the elemental levels and the history of the elemental world."

"If possible, take out all the books related to those two types."

Hearing this, the librarian nodded and immediately bowed respectfully.

"Yes, young master, please wait in the reading room above."

Arthur nodded and immediately walked over, with Runa leading the way.

After more than ten minutes of waiting in the reading room, the librarian brought all the books he requested and placed them in front of him.

The number was probably more than thousands!

However, he knew that this was not all because he guessed that all the books in this library amounted to more than hundreds of thousands!

What was the concept of books with such a number?

If placed in his previous world, perhaps this library would be one of the libraries with the largest collection of books in his country.

Not to mention the libraries in the Balka Empire, which probably reached millions of collections!

Arthur really couldn't wait to rob their library.

The librarian smiled embarrassedly and spoke with an apology on his face.

"Sorry, young master, I can only collect this in a short time."

Arthur nodded and immediately spoke lightly.

"Well, that's fine, you can go."

The librarian bowed his head and quickly left the reading room.

After that, Arthur asked Runa to help him sift through the books.

Over the course of half an hour, the thousands of books were reduced to dozens.

Arthur took the important ones first and read the rest later.

After all, he couldn't read them all now.

"Alright, Runa."

"You can go do whatever you want."

Arthur smiled softly and spoke to Runa on the side.

Runa, who heard this, immediately shook her head and said softly, "I want to accompany the young master here."

"I will also read the book so that I can help the young master!"

Runa immediately opened the book on the history of the elemental world.

Arthur nodded his head, smiled, and started reading about the elemental level.

After all, he had only read a few books about this in the library before, and the information displayed in the novels might not all be accurate.

Soon, he opened the book and read it.

The elemental world, which was a world with various wonders

One of them was the "Elemental Core," found in the body of every living being.

However, not all living beings can use their "core," because the "core" of only some people can awaken the true power of a "core" residing in the body.

Those who can use their "core" are the chosen and talented ones.

The essence in the body is divided into various elements with four elemental bases.

Hence, all levels of power in this world use the word "elemental," which is based on the elemental power in the core of every living being.

The power system in this world is divided into four major stages, with each stage having several sub-stages.

The first stage is the Elemental Core level, which consists of nine smaller stages.

Each stage represents the formation of an elemental core in the body.

If a person has one core formed in their body, they are in the first stage of the Elemental Core level.

The final stage of this level is marked by the formation of nine cores in the body.

Beyond this level is the Elemental Saint stage.

The final stage of the Elemental Core level, where all nine elemental cores are combined into one, is extremely powerful.

This marks the beginning of the next stage, the Elemental Saint stage, which is further divided into three levels: initial, middle, and late.

However, above this stage lies the legendary Elemental Supreme stage.

At this stage, the core within the body is transformed into an artifact, such as swords, bows, spears, or other elemental artifacts based on one's talent.

The artifacts formed at this stage are incredibly powerful, with a single strike capable of destroying half of the Balka Empire.

The rare elements used in creating these artifacts, such as lightning, light, and other destructive elements, make them even more formidable.

People who reach this stage are legendary figures and the top leaders in the elemental world.

As Arthur pondered the incredible power of the Elemental Supreme stage, his attention was drawn to the last stage: the Elemental Lord stage.

Though it was once thought to be only a fairy tale, it was confirmed to be true.

Achieving this power meant becoming a godlike being capable of destroying the Balka Empire with a single swipe.

According to various stories, it is said that at the Elemental Lord stage, one awakens their avatar.

This avatar is an image of one's elemental aura and, when awakened, is incredibly powerful.

An avatar awakened by an Elemental Lord can even suppress an entire human continent and reach heights of thousands of meters.

In the novel "The Birth of the Elemental Lord," the protagonist, Abel, finally reaches this stage and awakens the avatar of the Thunder God.

This avatar is depicted as holding a black lightning bow and, with a single shot, can make the entire human continent tremble.

The power and might of an avatar at this stage are truly awe-inspiring.

This is shown during the last arc of the novel, when Abel fights against the Ancient Star Empire.

You can imagine how powerful the Ancient Star Empire is if it can defend against Abel, who awakened the Avatar of the Thunder God at the Elemental Lord stage!

After reading the book, Arthur immediately leaned his head on the back of his chair and thought.

"So powerful!"

"This power is what I must obtain to change my fate!"

However, he soon stood up and remembered something terrible.

"The Elemental Lord is very powerful!"

"However, the book does not mention that someone at this stage can split a continent with a wave of the hand!"

"Abel in the novel who is at the Elemental Lord stage can also only make the human continent tremble violently."

"It might be able to destroy the human continent, but it certainly can't be done with just a wave of the hand, right?"

Arthur broke out in a cold sweat on his back, and he asked inwardly.

"Then, the mysterious figure described in the book, what stage is it at?"

"Is there a stage beyond the Elemental Lord?"

------

Finally finished too, I described a little power scale in this chapter so it's longer.

Perhaps, the Auxiliary chapter that explains in more detail about the power in the elemental world will be next.

Thank you~ Stay tuned my friends!
