Chapter 309

Lucky 309

-- Scratch Scratch

In a dark, dirty cell, a woman with long hair was scratching at the wall. She scratched the moss that grew on the wall.

When her unkempt nails were filled with green moss, the woman did not think twice and began to nibble them.

Her teeth and tongue made sure that she consumed all the moss.

In this unknown dungeon, eating moss was one of the ways to stay alive.

The woman did not know who she was. She did not know her name or her parents. She knew nothing. She never saw life outside of this place. She believed that this dungeon was the whole world and there was nothing outside. She never knew that outside there was a soft blue sky and a warm sun.

"Aaahh ggaahh guah."

She spoke. She did not know any language, this was her way of talking to herself. By speaking 'guah gah.

She smiled after tasting the dirt. For her, this moss was the most precious thing besides the daily rations of food.

-- Tang Tang!

"!!"

The woman jumped in fear when she heard the certain clang of metals. Her face changed and she was frightened.

She closed her eyes and knelt down. She hoped she would not be chosen this time.

Fortunately, the officer walked past her cell and went into another.

"Guaah! Aggadah!!"

The officer pulled a struggling man out of his cell. Just like the woman, this man could not form proper words. Language was not a concept in this place.

"Get out! Or I will beat you!"

The prisoners trembled.

The words 'beat' and 'get out' made them shudder. They had heard these words many times and knew what they meant. Maybe these were the only words they knew.

"Gauah!"

"You!"

The officer frowned as the dirty man touched his pants. These filthy beings were dirty and the officer was disgusted just to be near one of them. However, this was his job and these ignorant things were an important part of their plan.

"Ugh!"

The officer began to hit the poor man. He did not care if the man would go limp or bleed to death. As long as he did not die, the officer was free to beat him.

"Argh..."

"Tch! Follow me or I will not feed you this time."

"Gauge..."

The weak man had no choice. He followed the officer with his limping feet. He was crying, beaten black and blue.

The people in the cells were afraid and did not dare to look at the officer. All they could hear was the man's pitiful moaning.

The woman stopped kneeling and wiped the tears from her eyes. She had never known freedom, she had never known God. All she knew was that sooner or later she would die in this place.

When she opened her eyes for the first time, she was already in this terrible place. This was her world, she never thought of leaving this place. She just hoped to live at least a little longer.

After a few minutes, she looked at the walls. She licked her lips and decided to eat some moss again. She was already used to this life and she just wanted to continue her life eating the dirty moss.

She smiled. She had already forgotten that someone had been beaten.

"Hmmm!"

In her opinion, this moss was better than the stinky, glue-like, tasteless food the officers brought them. At least this moss tasted good and made her tongue feel something. But of course the rations filled her stomach even more, so she would never say no.

The woman touched her cheeks with happiness. She had brown skin, green eyes, and long ears just like those...

......

...

...

"Here I am... The University of Horvart. The first university in history."

Calix muttered as he stared at the huge structure in front of him. This place was so huge that it would take him twenty days to explore the whole place.

Horvart University could be considered a city, and most of its citizens were students from all over the world. This university gathered all the geniuses and nurtured them. It was a neutral territory, and even Junian could not command the university.

'I have heard that this university has an ancient library where all the lost scriptures can be found.'

It was indeed true that Horvart University had an ancient library, and people wanted to enter the holy place at least once. However, the ancient library had the highest security. Only special students and high-ranking individuals could enter the place.

'Even Esmeralda is not allowed...'

The president's identity was too dangerous for the university to let her enter the library.

"Well, Esmeralda isn't allowed to visit Junian, so it's useless anyway.

Considering the situation between the two countries, it was obvious that Esmeralda was not allowed.

Calix's current identity was Lucky T. Tiko.

A young tourist and transfer student from Carrillo. It was a fake identity and Calix chose the name himself.

"I think my major is archaeology."

Which meant that he would have a chance to study the history of this country.

"Also... I need to find my contact.

Esmeralda told him that she had planted a spy in this place a few years ago. The spy did his job carefully and gathered information.

Calix wanted to ask this person if he had any idea about Toshi Densetsu or anything related to the Dark Elves.

Besides, this mission was a kind of vacation. He wanted to visit some places and take some pictures.

"In a way, I'm really a tourist."

"Excuse me? Are you Lucky T. Tiko?"

A woman approached him.

"Yes, I am."

"I'm your guide, my name is Oni Chichi."

"Nice to meet you, Miss Oni"

He gave his best smile. But with his bangs covering his eyes, he looks kind of creepy. Like an MC from a hentai...
