Motaro arrived at the hills of Jivana. Flowers blooming with hum of light and nature magic, trees with magical birds on top, singing with an unknown language over the plains. Motaro however... Did not give a damn toward any of them. His whole focus was on finding the library.

  Motaro : fuck... Oh wait... Fuck me. (he said while hitting his forehead with a fist)

  Library is in front of me why I'm so angry about where it is?

  He gazed at the large looking wooden mansion, with hundreds of stairs leading to the main door.

  Motaro : it is what it is... I've walked miles. Few steps on stairs won't hurt.

  Scene change

  Minosashi and sewn mouth were training with each other in the training room of library. Swords clashing with immense speed. All of a sudden, their expressions hardens. Their battle, stopping mid air.

  Minosashi : you feel it too?

  Support the creativity of authors by visiting the original site for this novel and more.

  Sewn mouth : a threatening power... Overwhelming... It probably...

  Minosashi : is an abyss general...

  They rushed at the main doorways of library. Awaiting for an ambush. Their presence fading within the shadows.

  Motaro pushed the door open. The force so immense it caused multiple cracks from bottom to the top on it.

  Motaro : what? I didn't even push that hard! Pffff... Who cares... Time to find my family.

  The moment he steps in, Minosashi rushes outside of shadows, putting one of the katana's edges near his neck. Sewn mouth with his third eye open, had his scythe near motaro's heart.

  Motaro grinned : what a gentle way to approach a guest son of a bitches.

  "Who are you?" (Minosashi's voice was calm, full of absolute focus)

  Motaro : I'm looking for my crew you dumbass.

  Minosashi : your... crew? (he asked with curiosity)

  Motaro : yeah. I'm the leader of a crew that is supposed to be here. All of them safe?

  Minosashi : wait... You are...?

  Before minosashi could finish his words, Lionye opened the doors of the grand hall. Slowly walking outside. His footsteps were steady, filled with his authority. Yet, they seemed to have no threat in them.

  Lionye : what is all these noise and sound...? (his voice, calm and steady)

  Motaro : oh good! Now an old monument of books is here! I'm Motaro looking for my goddamn brothers. Can you please fucking guide me to them?!

  Lionye's voice softens : Motaro... The unbeatable warrior. The unbreakable will... Welcome to my humble library. (he bowed)

  Motaro laughed : ahahaha! who gave me those titles? I'm just a centaur, the last centaur to be exact. Ahem...

  Lionye : Right... My mistake. Come inside. You are more than welcome. I'm sorry for the treatment of Minosashi and Sewn mouth. They are the best defenses here for our library. (he gestured toward the inner part of library, inviting motaro inside)

  Minosashi and Sewn mouth sheathed their swords and vanished in shadows to get back to training.

  Motaro on the other hand, joined Lionye to witness the library...
