After discussing about the forbidden spells with Frank, Benjamin had dinner and went back to his room.
Originally he had planned to meditate to gather more water elemental energy, but when he sat on his bed, he couldn’t help but frown like he had forgotten something important.
….what did he forget?
After frowning for a good while, Benjamin suddenly had an epiphany.
Previously in the Underground Remains, he had found a dead adventurer in one of the hidden rooms. He had taken two old and broken books from that corpse and kept it in his bag as some sort of reward. He’d forgotten all about them until now. Since he was free, he decided to take them out for inspection.
The dead explorer must’ve been a mage. Although he seemed to be from a distant past, the books were still printed in an understandable language. Benjamin hoped that the wisdom of these ancient texts might lend him some help or inspiration.
