Mr.Owner

The sun shined. The birds chirped. The leaves rose. It was time for a new day!

Reve slightly opened his pudgy eyes.

For the past three months, he had been going through the most horrendous torture that one could experience. He had been reading books upon books.

However, the good thing was that reading had a direct and passive effect on him.

[  Name: Reve

  Race: White Arcadian Cat

  Level(exp): 2 (2/10)

  Titles: #######, Deviant, First Kind

  AP: 30

  [Attributes]:

  [Skills]: 

]

He had gotten to Level 2, yayy!!!

Well, it didn't seem much but it was something.

Also, the fact that he achieved that by just reading makes it more appreciative.

Alright. Alright. It might be a little….just a little depreciative.

However, every street leads to the highway….or is that is how they say it?

Reve furrowed his brow, "Hmmm...every road leads to Rome? Not that"

He stood on his two hind legs and placed his two front claws together, "Every dao leads to the great tao…."

His words flowed through his body and the rays of sunlight perfectly hit his white fur.

He appeared like a monk cat that speaks encompassing words.

At least, that was what he thought...….

"Hmmm...that's not it. Let me try again," said Reve.

He made a few dramatic movements and released the words that have been bubbling inside him for long, "Ever--Every--Every--Eve--- Oh, bullock! What was I going to say?"

Outside, the sky rumbled and rain started to pour on the green land.

It was nature.

Yet, someone decided to take offence.

The cat emperor cursed, "You are mocking me, right? it's mocking me! It's clearly mocking. You, bloody *********."

After addressing his frustrations, Reve laid on the cold floor and listened to the sound of the rain.

It might not look like it, but he had gained much.

For instance, .....

[  Attributes' Nixy Window 

  Strength: 4

  Speed: 11

  Constitution: 4

  Intelligence: 20                                                                                ]

His first three attributes had increased by one or two points, which was quite normal. However, his intelligence went up by a whopping four points.

Wait, maybe it wasn't exactly whooping. However, going by the fact that the subject is the intelligence attribute, it could be considered whooping.

His intelligence didn't have any shining effect on himself. 

The main reason it had increased was due to the large amount of knowledge he had consumed.

He could now call himself a citizen of Arcadia!

"But…..."

Reve's eyes softened as he slowly glanced at the bookshelf.

About a quarter of the books were clean and taken care of, but the rest were buried in the dust of time.

He hadn't read them yet.

Despite boasting of great knowledge of the Nixy practice, he still hadn't comprehended everything accessible to him. Meanwhile, he was sure, based on what was written in the books, his general knowledge was greater than 40% of Arcadia.

If Reve had to count, he had only read one bookshelf among the ten-ish shelves.

He couldn't help it. His mind wasn't boundless. He could only retain information for a small amount of time.

Hence, he made sure to concentrate on knowledge of Nixy Practice, while he dabbed a bit into general knowledge like his current location.

Reve winced as he remembered the countless nights he had spent memorizing and re-memorizing certain books.

Now, he has reached his limit. No matter what information he absorbed, he couldn't retain it.

*Drip Drop!* *Drip Drop!*

The rain settled down a bit and Reve saw this as a cue to move.

"It is finally time. Meow, I just want to sleep," he dragged his body outside the dilapidated building.

Before he went out the open door, he glanced at the center of the building.

He could see some sharp lines drawn in a circle in a beautiful pattern. They glowed dim, which was a sign that, whatever they are, they were dormant.

However, this didn't deter Reve from sighing whenever he laid his eyes on them.

"The teleportation circle…. "

In other words, the thing that brought him here.

In other words, the thing at the depth of Earth's devil triangle.

In other words, the reason for his and Myrna's suicide mission, which she didn't get to see eventually.

It was a pity it couldn't take him back.

On second thoughts, maybe it was better that way. He wouldn't want to face the terrific sea monsters back in the devil's triangle.

Even thinking of it gave him the chills.

"Focus, Focus, Reve…...one step at a time," Reve chanted.

He took one last look at the teleportation circle and left the building.

As he walked past the field of large grasses, he summarized what he knew about the building.

"My previous theory of Earth and Arcadia being connected is right. The owner of the building is a person who harnessed the connection. He was probably mighty strong."

"He created the teleportation crystal and visited Earth. I say this because Mr.Owner is most likely from Arcadia and not the other way around. Despite his extensive knowledge of the English language, he sometimes substitutes 

words with Arcadish, the general language of Arcadia."

"As for what the Arcadish words meant…..Well, R.I.P to that...How did he expect me to understand? But then again, he didn't write those books for me. I feel he simply translated it for fun sake."

Noticing he was trailing off again, Reve forced himself to focus, "Mr.Owner, apparently, was an explorer, like himself. From his written knowledge in the building, I could tell that he had travelled around Earth as well. The building, holding his treasured knowledge, was most likely his bat-cave!" 

"However, something happened to him and the connection of both worlds that left this place to not be visited again. The End. Dun dun dun…."

Yet…..

"Yet, I am right here. I used the portal that was technically inactive. Clearly, something strange is going on. My bet is that following the trails would lead to---"

A beastly roar thundered in his head as he stopped in his tracks.

He had already forgotten that thinking while walking does not work in the forest of Arcadia!
