Super Planet System Behind The Moon

Chapter 35 - Comeback To Sam

"So you mean… They could be people who harm others, like me being used by bad guys like Vernandes?" Aidan asked Lucas, the man was reluctant to say it was true but Lucas had to say if that was what he meant earlier. Lucas sighed and nodded at Aidan.

"Then… Where should we look for them? Where are they at now?" Aidan asked that question successively to Lucas who exhaled again and reached into his pocket and took out the piece of paper he was carrying which was Aidan's birthmark which was located on the right side of his neck.

Aidan's eyes widened at the picture Lucas showed him, "Oh?!" He said surprised.

"This… This is the thing I brought with me when my grandfather found me in the haystack when I fell from the sky." Lucas explained to Aidan who was now touching his birthmark, he also said to Lucas.

"That is my birthmark!" Aidan said which made Lucas nod his head, confirming it and showing that he already knew if the mark was his.

"That's why I was able to find you and go see you. With just this image… Our birthmarks are a clue we can use to find the others, Aidan." Lucas said to Aidan which finally made Aidan remember something and immediately took out the cloth he took from Belinda's notes, along with Belinda's book.

While Lucas, who was standing beside him, just watched what Aidan was doing at the moment, "If that's a sign that's a clue you came to see me. Is it possible… We can also use this as a clue, Lucas? Is this a common sign?" Aidan also asked Lucas if the image on the cloth he was carrying was a clue to finding another star. Lucas, who heard Aidan's question, immediately grabbed the cloth that was in Aidan's hand and then opened the cloth.

Lucas's eyes widened when he saw an image similar to the letter Z which was joined by a stronger h. What made Lucas believe that the picture was also a clue to lead them to find another star because he found a similarity between the picture and the sign it carried which was none other than Aidan's.

"Aidan… I think this is indeed a common sign, and we should immediately start looking for it!" Lucas said to Aidan who was confused by the words 'Must hurry' that Lucas said as if there was something that Lucas was rushing to find the person who had the mark. But without asking much, Aidan finally nodded his head and agreed with Lucas' words.

Lucas is like a person who doesn't know the time, because after Lucas got a clue about the next picture, Lucas immediately invited Aidan to go find the meaning of the picture in the Alexandrian library, which he had visited with three other small children.

Aidan, who had set foot in the place for the first time and saw the shape of the building, couldn't help but chuckle in admiration. He was very fascinated by the thousands of books and scrolls of yellowed paper neatly arranged in the large room.

"Woah… Lucas, to be honest. I've never been to a library before, but this new place I've been to is really neat… It's even bigger and neater than the data room in Devil Rebel's territory." Said Aidan who was amazed, Lucas who heard those words just shook his head.

He who had walked first, turned back to face Aidan who was walking behind him. "This is an ancient library, which was built in the time of Ptolemy II Philadelphia in the two hundred and eighty-fifth or two hundred and forty-six years BC!" Lucas explained to Aidan who now opened his mouth wide because he couldn't believe what he was hearing about the library they were stepping on. He did not know if the ancient library still existed in the modern era like today.

"Whoa! I can't believe this, they can maintain this ancient library! What technology do they use?" Said Aidan was fascinated by the people who he thought had preserved the inheritance from their ancestors to last all this time and even when he looked at the neatly arranged books, the condition of the books still looked very good. Far from old and outdated. Meanwhile, Lucas, who heard Aidan's words earlier, couldn't help but chuckle and shake his head as he explained to Aidan what was going on right now.

"Not stupid! It's not them who are great to keep all this intact, but we who have returned to bad where this library still stands!" Lucas said explaining to Aidan that they had returned to the past so that the library was still well maintained and in good condition. Aidan who heard the explanation just said 'oh' while nodding his head realizing that it was actually them who returned to the past, and not the technology used so that the library survived so well.

Aidan silently looked to his right and left, then he looked back at Lucas and asked. "So… We're going to look for a picture of the hundreds of thousands of books in this library? Is that your plan?" Lucas nodded his head confirming Aidan's question which managed to make Aidan not believe it and exhaled slowly. But inevitably and there is no other choice for Aidan but to accept the plan.

Aidan nodded his head slowly then said to Lucas, "Alright… Then let's start looking!" Said Aidan who immediately approached one of the bookshelves and began to look at the contents of the book page by page, little by little and carefully. Aidan looked at the letters one by one in the book he was holding. And when he just opened the twentieth page, he felt that he was no longer able to find the same symbol in the book, even though he had only opened twenty of the millions of sheets in the library.

"Ah! I give up… I can't take it anymore!" Said Aidan who threw out all his complaints, which succeeded in making Lucas who was focusing on his book become distracted and turned to Aidan who was currently sitting tiredly in front of the pile of books that he had taken down from the bookshelf, but he had not read it at all...

"Searching for one picture among thousands of books is not as easy as you think, Aidan… So be patient!" Lucas said to Aidan who was now shaking his head repeatedly, refuting those words.

"No, no, no! Did you also find my mark among these thousands, ah… Millions of books?" Aidan asked who was very curious how Lucas could find his whereabouts. Lucas nodded his head confirming Aidan's question.

"Yeah, right… I found it. But the scroll wasn't complete because the scroll was…" Lucas was silent when he realized something that of course made Aidan frown upon hearing those unfinished words from Lucas' mouth.

"Ter?" Aidan asked Lucas who was holding his breath and narrowing his eyes, feeling stupid for what he was about to say. Lucas then put the book he was holding back into the shelf in front of him then walked over to Aidan who was still sitting in his place.

"I should have known sooner if this was going to happen!" Lucas said to Aidan who now rose from his seat and faced Lucas while frowning at the man. He didn't quite understand what Lucas had just said, and his question remained unanswered.

"Lucas! You have not answered my question!" Aidan scolded Lucas who turned to him and nodded casually in response. Then Lucas looked like he wanted to say something serious to Aidan.

Lucas swallowed his saliva before he finally spoke to Aidan, "The scroll is half burnt, and I realized if there's one mark in the scroll, the other marks are likely in the book as well. Lucas said explaining to Aidan what he was thinking and considering right now so he decided to go back to looking for evidence in this library. But of course, this made Aidan even more confused.

"So, We won't know the meaning of the next sign, I see?" Aidan asked who concluded what Lucas just explained to him. But Aidan's wrong answer made Lucas shake his head and then go back to explain.

"No, no! The scroll can still be interpreted, and that means the emblem we have can also be interpreted." Lucas was clear to Aidan who was curious about what Lucas just said. Where can they find out about the sign? That was the question on Aidan's mind right now.

"Where? And Who can help us decipher this sign, Lucas?" Aidan asked at that time making Lucas smile remembering Eliot, Daisy's Nanny, and Sam who knew a professor who could translate the scroll.

"I think we should go to my friend for her help again." The sentence that was uttered by Lucas made Aidan now look at him curiously, but Aidan would still follow Lucas' steps after Lucas had made Aidan aware that the place he called home was hell for innocent people.

Aidan's eyes now turned to look at Lucas' hand that was outstretched to him, and without much consideration and hesitation, Aidan immediately shook Lucas' hand for the two of them to finally disappear from the Alexandrian library to a place that Aidan would not have guessed.
