#103 - Klein tells stories

The only difference in the Royal Academy's information is that the academy advocates self-breakthroughs, relying on one's own strength to break through limits.

Klein also did this during his first breakthrough, using intense battles to push his magic to its limit and break through.

The academy faction believes that this type of breakthrough is the most reasonable and strongest. However, Jay Society does not offer any guiding instructions on breakthrough methods.

Jay Society's theory is that as long as you are truly at the peak of a certain rank,

then any breakthrough method is acceptable, even taking medicine or using strange methods.

Existence is reasonable. As long as you can break through, all methods are viable. Breaking through with external force is still a breakthrough.

The higher the rank of magic, the stronger the activation of the body. In other words, the earlier you break through a rank, the longer your lifespan and peak condition will be.

Advancement doesn't increase your lifespan, but rather multiplies your remaining lifespan by a factor.

Klein also felt that Jay Society's approach made some sense and could be considered more pragmatic.

… …

For Klein, it didn't really offer much practical help, as his situation was somewhat special.

Before advancing to Tier 1, it was fine, but after Tier 1, he didn't even have a magic pool, let alone recast one.

The Heart of Burning Magic didn't seem easy to tear apart or destroy, and he didn't have a method to recast it. So, the question now is, how should he break through?

He had almost read through the modern mage's breakthrough methods without gaining much, so Klein decided to look at books about ancient magic.

He wondered what breakthrough methods ancient mages used to employ.

Could he possibly draw inspiration from ancient mages' breakthrough methods and develop a different approach from ordinary people?

With these questions in mind, Klein began searching in the library.

Unexpectedly, he had searched the entire first floor of the library and didn't find any information about ancient magic.

This was a bit strange. Even the Royal Academy's library should have some ancient magic texts.

Jay Society was known for having no taboos, so it was impossible that they wouldn't have any books about ancient magic.

Klein thought for a moment. It seemed that he could only go find that somewhat annoying librarian.

As he walked to the door, Klein noticed that the bald middle-aged man was still there reading a book.

He was smacking his lips while quickly flipping through the book 'Headless'. Judging by his lingering expression, he must have finished reading it.

Klein's eyes lit up slightly. A librarian who likes to read ghost stories.

And one who likes to read the ghost stories he writes. It seemed like he could manipulate this situation a bit.

"In the end, they still didn't catch that vengeful spirit."

Klein heard the man's murmur and smiled. 'Buddy, you're really engrossed in my book.'

He walked over to the bald middle-aged man and said,

"There's no such thing as a vengeful spirit. The one creating the headless corpses is always a person."

"What did you say? A person?"

The middle-aged man glared at Klein, but his tone was still somewhat doubtful.

"I said the one creating the headless corpses is a person, not a vengeful spirit."

"Have you read this book? Impossible. The author's note at the end clearly stated that they never caught the vengeful spirit who committed the crimes."

Klein shook his head. He was the author of this book, or rather, the pen name 'Labor Model'. He said to the bald man:

"The author said that because he also didn't know who the real killer was."

The middle-aged man wasn't stupid. He had already understood the implication in Klein's tone.

However, he didn't intend to ask further. Who wrote this story, who wrote this book, was not important to him at all.

What he wanted to know more was the truth in the book.

"Then who is the real killer?"

Klein didn't continue to play coy.

"The real killer is that little girl."

"That little girl? How is that possible? She couldn't have done it.

Weak, small, without any supernatural powers, she couldn't possibly cut off an adult's head."

Klein came to the middle-aged man's side and began his performance.

"Although the little girl didn't have enough strength, she had enough wisdom.

She used gravity, steel wire, gears, and inertia to design one ingenious trap after another.

She simulated each trap hundreds of times. She prepared for this plan for a full three years. Of course, she could do it.

Mr. Librarian, please look at the first major section of the story, where the girl is swinging on the swing. And the second section, where she's changing the curtains."

The middle-aged man opened the book and found the places Klein was pointing to.

[Nora was tidying up her swing. Because the swing swayed so much, the ropes of the swing were made of braided steel wire.]

[Perhaps because it had been too long, the curtain gears in the villa were a bit rusty. Fortunately, the careful Nora bought many new ones, ready to replace them]

The middle-aged man repeatedly recalled the specific content of the book and the two places Klein pointed out, and said,

"If the steel wire and gears are the murder weapons, the impact force of the steel wire at extremely high speeds can indeed sever a person's neck.

And if the little girl is the killer, many things can be understood.

Did she kill everyone in the family to get her grandmother's property?"

"No, the grandmother wasn't killed by her, and the grandmother had already discovered that the killer was her little granddaughter.

Moreover, the grandmother was the only one who knew the truth. Knowing that her days were numbered, she committed suicide to protect her granddaughter.

The girl's parents were killed by her uncles and aunts when she was 10 years old, so she spent three years formulating this plan… …"

Klein explained the causes and consequences of the story in detail to the bald librarian.

Don't ask why, because in Klein's dictionary, every librarian is worth taking seriously.

Even Billy from the ordinary library in Larchmont City was no exception.

In the previous world, the great Mr. Jin had clearly told us.

Every librarian has the potential to be a hidden BOSS, and even if they're not a BOSS, they'll be a doctor.

Because most librarians read a lot of books and are knowledgeable.

Klein had always believed in this truth, so he treated all librarians with a bit of respect.

… …

The bald man carefully savored the little girl's actions in the book and couldn't help but admire her.

"What a mentally outstanding fellow. If such an outstanding child is well-trained, they will definitely become a remarkable talent."

The way people's brains work in this world is different from Klein's previous life.

In his previous life, the little girl in the book would definitely be a little devil, but here, she would only be called a genius.

If there really was such a talent, there would be organizations willing to train them.

Ghost stories are all harmonized, and I won't write "I'm a dog" in ghost stories again in the future.
