Aran continued to think about a plan for three whole days. After thinking of every possibility, he finally found a plan that was completely over the top and no one suspects. Thinking about that plan, he started to feel marvellous about himself.
On the next day after the classes ended, aran went straight to the academy's office to meet the person who was in charge of making library schedules. As he met her, she asked
"Hello, how may I help you?"
" I want to change my library schedule!" Aran replied with a smile.
" Sorry, but I can't do that!" She said.
" Why not? I have read the rules, and it says, I can if there is an open period! "
" Yes. That's right but there are no open periods, all the other times are already scheduled, "
" Well not all of them, I'm sure there will be some period when the library will be empty "
" Sorry, there is no period like that !"
" What about the two to three on Sunday ?"
" Sunday is free time, So that's when most of the students enter the library, so you can't enter Sunday afternoon "
" I'm not talking about the afternoon but Sunday morning from two to three, "
Hearing that she started to wonder what was wrong with him. She couldn't understand why would someone read books that early in the morning; that too on Sunday, the only free day in a week.
" But there won't be anyone else reading on that period, you will have to read alone at the midnight. Are you sure about that?"
" So there is a free period !" Aran said sarcastically.
" Yes, there is! "
" Well, then I would like to change my schedule to Sunday morning two to three. " He said and left that place after changing his schedule.
Since aran was thinking about copying the books the first thing he had to do was to make sure that no one else is present in the library. Since Sunday is free time, everyone will be taking a rest on Saturday night. So he knew that it will be the best time for him to do it.
When the woman in the office reported that news to the officials of the academy, they became suspicious of Aran and they started to wonder why would someone do that and decided to keep track of him when he enters the library.

The next thing aran wanted to do was prepare some important materials.
At first, he started to follow every move of Professor Terrowin using his vision and found that Terrowin was selling the students from the rich family, whatever they wanted and collecting the money from their families.
Since aran knew these kinds of things are common everywhere he had expected this. So it solved another problem for him.
On the next day, he and his friends went to the academy store to collect their weapons. After reaching there, when aran saw his custom-made sword, he was pleased to know that it is exactly what he thought it would be.
Since mixing both kinds of mana breaks his swords and he had to find a solution for that and that was why he asked for Cestian, one of the strongest metals in the world. He was sure that he can use Cestian for more than a year without breaking it.
After collecting his sword and paying for it with the academy's spirit stones, Aran told Terrowin that he wants to talk to him about something in private. Since Terrowin knew that he is from a rich family, he invited aran inside the store.
Aran told his friends to leave without him since he had something to talk to Terrowin about.
After his friends left, both Terrowin and Aran went inside. As aran walked inside, He saw that Terrowin had a very fancy meeting room for a professor. He realized that he is earning more than what he was expecting, by selling things to the students.
" So, is this the only thing you do?" Aran asked.
" I don't know what you actually mean but if you are talking about my job, then, No. I own more than ten artifacts shops in the carwel. Actually, I am the biggest artifact businessman in Carwel!
Most people don't know about that since I want to keep my identity private but remember, you can get anything you want here, just don't break rules by using it inside the academy against the students! " Terrowin said.
Hearing that aran was shocked because he didn't think that Terrowin will exceed his expectations this much.
" Well there are some things I need, they are not unique but I want them by tonight! " Aran said.
" You will get it, but what about the payment? "Terrowin asked.
" You didn't have to worry about that, just send the bills to the central palace of the Wilford family and tell them, it's the expenses made by the young master of the family who is in the academy! " Aran said.
Since that was mostly how Terrowin used to do business he accepted instantly. He didn't know anything about what was happening between the Wilford family members and the only family members who were known by most people were Hadwyn and Fenris.
Since Fenris was Aran's brother, Terrowin was sure that he don't have to worry about the money.
"That's great. So what are the things you need ?" He asked.
Since the central palace was the one going to pay the money, thinking that it might be Jason who bought these things, aran included all the things he wanted and even the things he didn't need in the list.
After giving the list to Terrowin, Aran left for his room.
When Terrowin read the list he started to wonder why does aran want these things. Because he had also included some jade slips containing the basics of the language literature such as basic reading and writing.
Aran had also included many notebooks. These things were normally used by small children who just started to learn. Although it seemed silly, Terrowin thought, he doesn't have to care. So he decided to give him what he wants.

After a while when aran was reading the book in his room, someone knocked on the door. As Aran opened it; one of the subordinates of Terrowin was standing there waiting for him.
" I have the things you need, where do I put them ?" He asked.
Aran invited him inside and showed him an empty place in his room
" Here! " he said.
After unloading all the things from his storage ring, The subordinate left after saying good night to aran.
Aran had asked for many things from Terrowin, including a thousand high-tier spirit stones. After the subordinate left, he immediately stored everything in his ring.
Since Aran had gotten what he needed, he decided to go with the next thing. He first summoned his book on his right hand and then he took out an empty jade slip from his ring into his left hand.
Soon he looked for a specific martial technique in his book and transferred the technique to the jade slip. After that, he took out another jade slip and transferred some other things to that slip.
Even though a cultivator has to form an array and perform the technique inside that array, to successfully transfer a technique into a jade slip, some masters, who know every small detail about the technique, could directly transfer a technique from their mind to a slip just by touching it.
Since the book included every small step about the technique and aran was connected with it through his soul, transferring a technique was no big deal to him.

On the next day, as aran went to the class, he waited until all the classes ends and as soon as the alchemy class ended, he followed professor Gefrey, who was his alchemy professor.
" Hello professor, stop! " Aran shouted running towards Professor Gefrey who was leaving after the class ended. As Gefrey heard aran, he stopped and turned around.
" What's the matter? Why are you shouting? " professor Gefrey asked. He thought aran might want to ask a doubt about the alchemy lesson he just finished.
" Sir, I have to talk to you about something "
" Sorry, I am busy right now, whatever the doubt might be, you can ask it tomorrow "
" No sir, it's not about the class. It's about something else. Please listen! I am sure you won't regret it. " Aran said confidently.
When Gefrey heard him, he thought it might be something important since it was the first time aran was talking to him this seriously.
" Fine. follow me!" He said And aran followed him to his private office room. As both of them went to his room, Professor Gefrey sat down in his chair.
" Sit down," He said and as Aran sat down Gefrey asked
" So what is it you wanted to talk to me about ?"
As aran heard it, he took out the jade slip from his ring and gave it to Gefrey and said.
" This is was I wanted to talk to you about. "
As Gefrey took that slipe and poured some mana into it to read it, thinking what might it be, his expression started to change and he was shocked to see that. He couldn't trust his own mind and started to wonder how could have aran managed to get something like this.
