Chapter 88
"Hey, why are you daydreaming?" the old man asked again, bringing Ray back to reality.
Ray was puzzled about how the old man knew what he desired. He had never shared his intention to obtain a condensed Aether crystal with anyone. Moreover, this was his first time attempting such a practice, so he was worried that something might go wrong.
Cautiously, Ray regarded the old man, fearing that he could read minds, which would be perilous for him.
If the old man could read his mind, then all of Ray's secrets, from his transportation to the inheritance of the ruins of the slave, would be exposed.
Meanwhile, the old librarian didn't appreciate Ray's unfriendly expression. "Hey, what's with that look on your face? Instead of answering my question, you're giving me that disdainful gaze!"
"And how did you figure out that I want the Aether crystal you possess?" Ray inquired.
