"From year 24 to year 121 of the magic calendar, who was the owner of the Eye of Fairy?" At this time, the librarian seemed to be completely bewitched. Arikos was unwilling to accept the reality in front of him. He gritted his teeth and continued to ask more and more difficult questions.
Unfortunately, the guy on the other side was still unhurried. It seemed that Archmage did not need to think at all to blurt out, "Again? During this period, there was not only one person in charge of the Eye of Fairy, but three people. In order, they were Dardarcy, Finlich, and Anthony. "
"How much did the second repair of the Palace of Verne cost, and how did the money come about?" Arikos's eyes were bloodshot. Lolo did not understand how a person could become so haggard in such a short period of time.
"In year 46 of the magic calendar, the Palace of Verne suffered a fire, and then it was repaired for the second time. It cost a total of 21,073 gold coins. One-third of the money came from the royal family at that time, one-third from the nearby lords, one-sixth from foreign loans, and one-sixth from the public." After answering this question, Rob finally became a little impatient. He raised his eyebrows at the young librarian and said, "Well, are you satisfied now?"
Satisfied?! The librarian did not know whether Luo Bu was mocking him or not. His current mood was far from being satisfied. The only thing that could make him feel satisfied was the scene of Luo Bu being humiliated after being exposed, and the scene of Luo Luo breaking off all ties with Luo Bu in a fit of rage. Only these would make him feel sincerely happy, and now, he was clearly getting further and further away from these two goals.
Arikos was completely bewitched by the huge contrast between reality and ideal. He simply waved the book in his hand and shouted, "What's the fifth word on the second line of the 69th page of the first volume of 'The Chronicle of Gudilesi'?"
As a result, Archmage looked at him as if he was an idiot.
"That's enough, Arikos. That's enough!"
Just when the librarian was about to lose his mind, a familiar voice came from behind him. Hearing this voice, Arikos felt as if a basin of ice water was poured on his head, and his originally hot brain miraculously cooled down.
When the young librarian came back to his senses and looked at his previous actions again, he suddenly felt ashamed. He had realized how stupid he was just now. The young librarian's heart was full of bitterness. He felt that in the girl's eyes, he must be like a clown.
"Mr. Donahue, why are you here?" Facing the old man in front of him, who he respected the most and had always regarded as his father, Arikos behaved respectfully, but he could not hide his frustration.
Unlike Luo Luo's impression of those great scholars who always had a stern face and were full of vigor, the old man named Donaxiu seemed to be particularly easy-going. He was like an ordinary grandpa who was doing morning exercises in the park or leisurely selecting fresh vegetables in the market. He had gray hair, a stooped and thin body, and a face full of wrinkles. Perhaps the only thing that was different from other old people was his eyes.
That was a pair of eyes full of wisdom and understanding.
When you looked into those eyes, you would soon ignore his ordinary appearance and feel the unique temperament of his body. Then you would find that although his hair was silver, he was hale and hearty. Although his body was hunched, his steps were very vigorous. His wrinkled face had a enthusiasm that did not match his age, as if he was full of love for everything in the world.
But now the old man's expression was rare and serious. "Someone complained that there was an unruly guy in the reading area who had been making a lot of noise. It just so happened that I went back to the library today to find a few books, so I came to have a look. I didn't expect that person to be you, Arikos. Do you remember what I told you when you first entered the Raphael Library?"
The young librarian's face turned red. "The library is a place of freedom and equality. Whether you are a noble or a beggar, we all enjoy the same rights in the temple of knowledge. The vast majority of the Raphael Library is unconditionally open to anyone. All the books here can be borrowed free of charge. The librarian's duty is to provide corresponding help to the readers and maintain order in the library …"
At this point, Arikos couldn't help but lower his head. "I'm sorry, Mr. Donahue. I didn't perform my duty well. As a librarian, I made a lot of noise in the reading area and brought trouble to the people around me."
The old man sighed. "Your memory is very good. I've never worried about it. But compared to your memory, your heart is not strong enough. Usually, you don't talk much, but your feelings are very delicate. This is not a bad thing. Delicate feelings can help you better understand the world, but sometimes it will also hinder you. Perhaps you don't realize it, but it's very easy for you to get stuck in a dead end because of this delicate feeling."
The wrinkles on Donahue's face finally stretched out. He patted the teenager's shoulder. "There's nothing wrong with liking someone. When I was your age, I also liked many beautiful girls. But most of them preferred guys who were more handsome than me."
The old man shrugged. "Of course, I was also very sad at that time. I even secretly cried a few times in the woods. I was as indignant as you. I was obviously more outstanding, but why did someone else get her in the end? But this is love. Whether it's bitterness, sadness, or unwillingness, these are all part of growing up. But Arikos, you have to remember, no matter when, don't let the devil named jealousy devour you. Obviously, liking someone is a very good thing. Why do you have to make it ugly? "
"Mr. Donahue, I know I was wrong." The young librarian was ashamed. If the old man hadn't reminded him, he might never have realized that his previous seemingly "righteous" actions were all because of the selfish and twisted love at the bottom of his heart.
After realizing the mistake he had made, Arikos turned to the rookie The Brave and her guardian knight and solemnly apologized. "I'm sorry. Because of my previous stupid hot-headed behavior, I have brought unnecessary trouble to the two of you. As compensation, if you have any needs in the future, I can serve you free of charge in the library."
After a pause, the young librarian said, "In addition, you can ask Mr. Donahue about the Academy of Magic you are looking for. He was the previous curator of Raphael Library and has a deep understanding of the history of Gudilesi University City. As for me, there are a lot of people coming to the library to borrow books this afternoon. I should still need help, so I'll take my leave first."
