Although it sounded like a good plan, Domenech didn't want to do it. He had a serious heart disease, and the reason why he was still alive was that the doctors in Flosinone's hospital kept him alive with precious medicines.
If he decided to escape, he wouldn't be able to have such a good medical environment like he did in Flosinone. Even if he wanted to escape to the Odin Empire, he might die on the train before he could reach the Odin Empire.
That was why Domenech didn't run away even though he knew he had lost everything. Instead, he came to the Family Library. He wanted to use the precious two and a half hours to do something more meaningful. For example, he wanted to find the secret information that Ferguson left behind in the Family Library.
Domenech took out a bottle of white pills from his pocket and swallowed them. He then took a deep breath and walked into the Family Library. For the rest of the time, because he wanted to find the secret materials in the family library, he had to fight with the library keeper, Jon Ferguson, it could be said that it was inevitable.
Although Domenech was confident that he could kill Jon Ferguson, he still needed to be prepared. He couldn't let Jon Ferguson, who was a Grand Knight, drag him down in this battle.
Since Domenech was an elder of the family, he had been here for more than 10 years, so he wasn't unfamiliar with the first floor of the family library. He knew the first floor of the family library stored some unimportant materials, and the secret materials he wanted weren't on the first floor of the family library.
The Family Library's second floor, which he had never been to before, might be his final target. Therefore, Domenech didn't waste his precious time on the Family Library's first floor. Instead, he went straight to the second floor.
Different from what Domenech imagined, the second floor of the family library was similar to the first floor. There were bookshelves everywhere, and there were all kinds of books on them. Domenech was a bit disappointed. He knew that what he wanted was the biggest secret of the Ferguson Family, and it couldn't be placed in the open. He didn't want to see all these books in front of him.
As Domenech was thinking about how to find what he was looking for in this family library, he heard a series of footsteps. Domenech immediately became alert. Although he had successfully sneaked into this family library, he didn't forget about Jon Ferguson, the guardian of the lighthouse!
Domenech held his crossguard sword tightly as he hid behind the bookshelf. He was ready to stab Jon Ferguson when he appeared. As an old-fashioned soldier, Domenech was more willing to trust his crossguard sword that had been with him for many years compared to the more advanced guns that he had.
"Dadadada!"
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and a familiar figure soon appeared in Domenech's sight.
"Arveloya, why are you here?"
Seeing that the man wasn't Jon Ferguson, but Averoya, the general manager of the Ferguson Mineral Distribution Company, Domenech was surprised. Although Jon was in charge of the military force and Averoya was in charge of the family business, Domenech was familiar with Averoya. He knew that Averoya was just an ordinary senior manager of the family business who helped the family make money, and had a good relationship with many people in the family business.
Domenech was curious as to why an insignificant person like Aveyroa would appear in the library of the Lucien Family.
Looking at Domenech's confused expression, Aveloja had a hint of pity in his eyes. He didn't answer Domenech's question. Instead, he said, "Domenech, I advise you to stop struggling. You don't know who you are facing!"
Domenech's eyes flashed with a cold light when he heard Aveloa talk to him like this. It seemed like he was about to attack Aveloa.
Although Domenech's movements were subtle, Arveloya saw it clearly. He adjusted his glasses and put on a disdainful smile. He raised his arm and pointed at Domenech with his finger.
In the next second, Domenech, who was about to attack Aveyroa, felt like he was hit by a cannonball. He was blown away and crashed into the marble wall of the library.
Domenech fell to the ground and spat out a few mouthfuls of blood. Although he looked like a mess, he was still a Grand Knight. Even though he was almost 70 years old, he still didn't lose consciousness and didn't drop the cross sword in his hand.
Under Averroa's surprised gaze, Domenech struggled to get up from the ground with the help of the cross sword. After a few failures, Domenech finally stood up with the help of the cross sword. He stared at Averroa and asked, "Are you … a wizard?"
