Chapter 24: chapter 24
At the imperial library.
Lennox entered a section he wouldn't normally.
' I am sure it was somewhere near here....'
He walked slowly while examining the third shelf, not long has passed until Lennox quickly pulled a raged old book.
'Found it!!'
He took the book and rushed to a certain table, on that table placed two other books Lennox fetched earlier.
He first opened the book with the title { hybrids of the fallen } written by T.H Lennox flipped the pages until he reached a chapter titled [ Loves ].
Lennox fixed his seat and carefully read the context.
" Loves, briefly, are beings with a unique mana nature, unlike the known mana control, Loves can not use or be affected by magic or any different type of spells despite carrying a decent amount of magical energy. The reason why is that their mana had only a sole use which is bewitching the surrounding individuals.
Loves were named so as it is unheard about anyone of any race that disliked a Love. usually, these rare creatures secure themselves by luring other's urge to protect them, and since the chances of being charmed by their aura are 100% they always depended on others to live.
The attraction towards the Loves is caused by the familiarity and warmth that the Love emit, however, rarely this attraction turns to sexual affection. As it is not impossible, nevertheless it's hard to occur.
Hybrid Love also can not use magic however, they would be affected by spells that are made by others. The hybrid Love's aura is weaker than a pure Love, which makes the chances of others being caught in it nearly 60%. Those with great grudges or who engaged with the forbidden magic won't be affected by the hybrid Love's aura, aside from them, normal beings are mostly to be charmed.
Although it might be clear to the sharp-eyed magicians, the hybrid Loves themselves aren't aware of their own mana aura–"
'Huh?!!'
Lennox repeated the last sentence a few times, and every time he did his face becomes darker and darker.
' isn't it enough that a race which basically vanished two hundred years ago suddenly came knocking my door, now I have to stun her with the fact that she is not human !!!?'
When Lennox realized his thoughts, he fiercely shook his head feeling pathetic.
' do I even have the right to talk here.....'
After a while of pondering, Lennox put that book aside and took another one, entirely focused on it.

" are you sure you don't want dinner? " Rachel asked.
Everly:" no I am not hungry, but I want to have a chocolate bar. One of those I got with Lennox ".
Even though Everly doesn't even feel hunger, Rachel still believed her, she said:" fine, but you will have to brush your teeth before sleeping".
Everly responded with a beam:" okay ".
Rachel walked to the closet and pulled a basket full of sweets.
She said while returning to the bed where Everly was:" I kind of feel sorry for his highness, he most really wanted to taste them".
Everly said in confusion:" Lennox? What about him?".
Rachel:" you didn't know? His majesty confiscated his highness's share of the snacks and sweets as a punishment for causing troubles in the town ".
Everly exclaimed:" but I caused troubles too".
Rachel placed the basket next to Everly, she brushed Everlys' hair off her face saying softly:" well, you see, the first prince is much more mature, maybe not for now but once you grow older you will get more responsibilities ".
Everly pouted:" no fair, we are the same age".
Rachel's mind blanked.
She Subconsciously blurted:" .......the same age?".
Seeing Everly getting dizzy from nodding firmly, Rachel came to her sense. She said with an awkward smile:" aah I see, then I will go prepare some water for you to wash up".
Rachel rushed out of the room with a head full of messy thoughts.
' they are the same age!!!!? Does that mean she is his majestys' daughter? Then who is her mother? And why his majesty hadn't informed us? Could it be that he is so ashamed of his affair with her mother? NO, WAIT. Does the first prince even know? I think he does, it makes no sense for his highness to keep someone close to him for no reason...'
She kept working her brains out but with no results, Rachel gave up and returned to Everlys' bedroom, however, the room was empty with no trace for the one in question.

After a couple of hours of studying at the imperial library, Lennox returned to his room all beaten up by the unlimited questions that need to be answered.
He sat on his desk and grabbed a bunch of papers from his drawer, the papers were filled with unfamiliar design of magical circles, definitely not something known for humans.
Not long passed when sounds of footsteps and rustle could be heard on the veranda.
No need to guess who that was, Lennox already knew. He said nonchalantly:" what are you doing here again?".
Everly startled, she said feeling depressed:" aaw, how did you it was me? I wanted to surprise you".
Lennox answered in the same tone:" there are no much people who are stupid enough to come to visit me without invitation ".
Everly naively responded:" I guess so, since Lennox have sharp teeth and bites fiercely ".
Lennox:"......".
Everly:"...?".
Lennox: "just what do you want?".
Remembering her reason to come, Everly whooped towards Lennox with a basket on her hands:" I brought my share of candies since they took yours ".
The scene of a mountain of snacks and sweats bewitched Lennox, he schooled his expression and suppressed a smile saying: "nice you done, Everly ".
Everly:" hehe, right!!".
Everly jumped on the table and sat there since there weren't any other seats, both happily munched on the snacks until Everly noticed the magical circles.
Everly:" Lennox?".
Lennox:" hn".
Everly:" why are you using Ishanil circles?".
Hearing that, Lennox chocked on the chocolate he was eating, after few coughs, he cleared his throat and demanded:" YOU KNOW THE ISHANIL MAGIC !!!!!!?".
