I headed down the staircase, Mei Gui following closely behind. The other girls were disappointed to be left behind, but didn't question and instead spent this time exploring the 2nd Floor of the Library of Infinite Beginnings.
The 'something' I had to do was, of course, investigating about that young man I had met within whatever that portal was.
"Mei Gui, did you also meet that man when you went into the portal?" I asked as we were on our way down.
She nodded. "Yes, Master. He wore a black mask that covered only his eyes, a white robe, and had two angel-like wings."
"That's the one," I muttered. "What did he ask you?"
"I attacked him before he could ask anything," Mei Gui replied calmly.
I blinked. "I should've expected that...but uh, what happened? Did he just run away or something?"
Mei Gui shook her head. "He started asking me questions while evading all of my attacks."
Heya everyone, Cyclxne here.
A bit of a filler chapter, since we haven't had one of those in a while. The mysterious angel man's identity will be revealed (kinda) in the next chapter. The Library of Infinite Beginnings also holds quite a big secret at the topmost floor...one that will become vital to the plot.
Anyway, that's all from me for now.
And as always, I'll talk to you all in the next chapter~
