Little By Little

After figuring that out Xilo got up to check a couple other books as well just to be sure it wasn't the one he was currently reading that was like this. But even after checking those he still found nothing of use about Cestrin. Reluctantly giving up he sat back down and moved on to the next closest country to their current one. But Unfortunately luck was seriously not on his side in this manner. The country that was closest after Cestrin turned out to be Tildel and that meant he had not much information on it as well. Which would be fine if it wasn't for the fact that their country was populated with humans and were in constant skirmishes with Cestrin due to their general dislike for beast kind..

"We are really stuck in a hard place here."

He was probably in the worst possible location he could be in for him and Xelfia's situation. He almost wondered if the world was telling him to stay where he was and this was just their way of giving a hint. Sure he could probably visit Tildel alone if he covered up a little bit but that would involve not bringing Xelfia along with him and since he promised to explore the world together with her he wasn't too keen on such a thing. Plus it was his selfishness that mixed in and wanted to be by her side more.

Little by little he was slowly getting more comfortable to her being by his side. He had noticed it a little bit before but the biggest realization happened this morning for him. He really enjoyed being around her whether it was just sitting in a room like they were now beside each other or the conversations they had at other times. "Plus she gets me talking." Out of his entire life these past few weeks have probably been the most he had ever spoken all together and it was something he needed and wanted. Even if he messed up sometimes or couldn't figure some things out. At least she was in the same position.

"Learning together. It's definitely different."

He couldn't imagine how he would handle someone else being by his side this constantly if they were anyone else and that thought brought a slight smile to his face.

"So how's it going so far."

Interrupting his thoughts he heard the voice of the person he was just thinking about to find her sitting beside him with her book closed with a somewhat confident smile on her face. Seeing that smile sent even more shivers down his back then the story he had just read. Since he couldn't count any of that towards his points he was most likely behind in points at the moment and it scared him just thinking about what was going to happen. But most of all it made him sad to not be able to figure out and help Xelfia with her potential problem. "Get Serious Xilo, you don't have time to be messing around anymore." It really might come down to that one point at this rate if he kept on fooling around.

"It's going just fine what about you? On to your next book I see?"

"Yea, I just got finished now with this one and boy do I have a lot of information to tell you, Hehe I can't wait."

Not even waiting for his reply she looked back down and grabbed another book at her side and began reading again. "Ugh." Resuming his own reading he went on to all the countries that were in close proximity to Ukel only to come back empty handed. The only information he could openly find on any of the countries he looked at besides some of the more central ones were stuff about their Astral Zones and the capital cities linked to it with some small details about other things that didn't interest him much.

"Why don't you have more information, pointless." At that point though he was just venting his useless anger. He knew unfortunately that not many people cared about Geography and information as much as he did and even if they did they wouldn't put it in a public library unless they were strange. Like the writer of the story he had read a little bit ago.

"Haaaaa..It's fine, we'll get to those places eventually."

Giving up for now he moved onto the task he had in mind. Since he could only find information on his country primarily at the moment he was going to burn everything important about Belturn that he could into his head. Sitting up he walked over to the nearest bookshelf and started looking for a guide book of any sort about Belturn. After a couple of minutes of looking he finally found a small book that could finally help him.

"Finally."

With that he sat back down and began reading it. After about another hour of reading that he had finally finished reading the book he had chosen.

"Whooo. That took more time then I thought it would but I'm done now. We still have some time left. I wonder what I should look for next."

Taking a moment to stop and think about it he thought of other possible things they would need until eventually one thing came to mind. Going back to search for it on the shelves he continued his point collection.

Rewinding a little bit back After Xelfia had finally finished reading about Astral Path's she was just beginning to move onto Astral Rings and what they do for Astral Keepers. Turning the pages she began reading. Astral Rings primary function for their respective owners was to give people either more defensive abilities, attack abilities or both.

"So similar to our Innate ability?"

Unlike the ability people can get beforehand or afterwards though that can be anything from teleporting to flying these abilities can only be a part of a smaller range of choices that varies depending on person.
