So, that’s why Ariel-sama and Luke were in a bad mood as well.
I knew from the beginning that I could not win against Rudi.
Well, though I didn’t think that it would be this overwhelming of a defeat.
But for those two, me losing wasn’t enjoyable I guess.
No, such a thing is okay. Let us put it aside for now.
"Rude...eh, Rudeus-kun? For what reason are you here?"
"Doing a little bit of research."
"About what?"
"Metastasis Events."
When I heard those words, I thought.
I thought maybe Rudi was thinking along the same line as I am.
"The Metastasis Event? Why?"
"I was also a resident of Fedoa Territory in the Asura Kingdom. Because of that incident I was sent to the Demon Continent."
"The Demon Continent!?"
I was even more surprised.
I have heard stories about the Demon Continent.
It’s a harsh land in which Magic-beasts are all C-rank or stronger.
Some people go there to do warrior training, but most of them don’t come back.
So, if someone was teleported there, their chance of survival was mostly zero.
Rudi, managed to come back from there.
"Yeah, it took as long as three years, but I managed to come back. During that time I managed to find my family, but there is still one person I haven't found yet. But there is a good chance, if I examine this in detail, I may find a lead, right?"
"Do you mean..., for the sake of that one person you came to this school?"
"That's right."
When I heard those words, I reaffirmed Rudeus‘s greatness.
"I see, you are an amazing person...after all."
Even though coming back from Demon Continent took 3 years, instead of relaxing, he started to search for another person.
Even though just that is pretty amazing, since he received an invitation from Magic University he decided to research the incident as well.
You could not find such a person anywhere else.
If it were me, coming back after 3 years which is amazing, I would be resting at the refugee camp.
"So, what is senpai doing here?"
Hearing those words I came back to myself.
I was in the middle of transferring the materials for the class.
Ariel-sama is waiting.
I want to talk to Rudi more, but I cannot afford to leave Ariel-sama alone either.
"Aaaaaah! That's right! I was supposed to be bringing these materials somewhere. I've got to run. Rudeus-kun, see you later!" "Ah, sure, later!"
While I was leaving, I remembered this library is big and has a lot of books, but there are only a few materials regarding metastasis.
Even for Rudi, finding material regarding the Metastasis Event would take a lot of time.
"Oh, that's right.... If it's about Metastasis, then a book by Animas called [Investigation Records of the Metastasis Labyrinth] is a good story you should read, It is in narrative form, but because it is written in an easy-to-understand way it would be good to start from there."
I decided to recommend that book, because it helped me to understand the Metastasis better.
If it is that, you'll understand the Metastasis because it’s written so even a child can understand it.
Though there were pages missing.
That made me feel that I did a bit of a good thing and left the library.
