I Just Inherited The Arcane Emperor's Legacy

He went to the Point Shop and saw that it wasn't nearly as full as the Mission Hall. Since it was just the start of the year, no one had any points to use.

He walked inside and went to one of the counters without hesitation. He wanted to see if he got his points or not. When he went there and checked with the people there, he was surprised.

Not only did he have his points, but they also gave him the 5 Aura Essence Pills and Body Tempering Pills. Since Maria never told them how to avail their pills, he assumed that they would be sent to his dorm or he would be told at a later date.

Once he had his pills, he checked the price of the Aura Gathering Pills and the Aura Essence Pills. The Aura Gathering Pill was 4000 Points each, while the Aura Essence Pill was 70000 points.

He was planning on checking it out once he went to the Thousand Treasure Tower. He was planning a trip since he would need a lot of pills to break through to the next aura level. At this point, he realized that he had an Aura Pill body, so he could freely take the pills without any worry.

Other than that, he was also concerned about how he was supposed to grow in magic. He was slowly becoming stronger, but he wanted to reach the Late-Stage as quickly as possible. If he broke through to the 4th Star before the Blood Moon, then he would be strong enough to leave the academy and look for the treasure the compass would point to.

After looking at the pills, he decided to take a look at the Aura Techniques. When he did, he was only shown a card-size piece of paper.

"What is this?" He asked the girl behind the counter.

"This is a Library Pass. It costs 2000 points for a Level 1 Library Pass. That slip will give you 2 hours of access to the 1st floor of the library. A Level 2 Pass will give access to both the 1st and 2nd floors. As a 1st year, you can only buy a Level 1 or Level 2 Library Pass. The Level 2 Library Pass costs 7000 points." She said.

He realized that this was what he had come to the academy for. The library was where all the information in the academy would be. He could learn so much more about magic if he went to the library.

"Can I have a Level 2 Pass please?" He asked.

She looked at him with surprise. The only people with 7000 points were in the top 20 ranks. She took his card and finished the transaction. When she finished it, she saw how many points were left on the card. Her eyes widened.

The person in front of her was in the top 5 ranks of the New Students.

"Thanks," Leo said and grabbed his card and Pass. He immediately left to find the library.

Finding the library was a lot easier than he expected. He knew its general location because of the map, but its structure was what made it easy to spot. The library was the biggest building in the entire academy.

Its exterior was crafted from polished stone and had intricate carvings. Towering columns supported the entrance, adorned with ornate arches and delicate scrollwork. The entrance was marked by a massive wooden door, embellished with decorative metalwork. Tall windows lined the walls, allowing natural light to filter in. The library's roof was a masterpiece of craftsmanship, featuring elegant spires and a central dome, highlighting the building in the entire academy.

The whole building seemed to be 8 stories tall, but in reality, there were only 5 stories to it. When he entered the library, he realized why. The ceilings were incredibly high, giving the entire floor a very spacious environment.

There wasn't a single book on the ground floor. There were only multiple staircases that lead to the floors above. He noticed that each staircase was only connected to a single other floor. Each staircase had a person sitting in front of it.

He normally would have thought the layout was completely idiotic since it only had a single person guarding the immense amount of information inside the library, but the existence of a single person made it work.

In the corner of the hall was a big desk. There wasn't anything on the desk except for the feet of the man behind it. He was sitting on a very comfortable chair and resting with his feet on the desk.

Leo knew that the man was a 4th Circle Mage, which meant that he was the person looking after the entire library. That was good for Leo, in a way, since his Valkyr's Deception would work on everyone in the library.

He went to the floor that led to the first floor first and was about to go up before he was stopped by the person at the base.

"You will need to show your Library Pass," The man at the bottom said. Leo realized that he was a student based on his aura level and age. He was probably being compensated with points instead of Starcoins for the job too.

Leo took out his Library Pass and showed it to the man. He took it into his hands and tore it lightly. He took out a pen and book and noted the time that Leo was entering. There was conveniently a huge clock on one of the walls.

"Can I have your card, please?" He asked.

Leo handed it to him. He then said, "You will be automatically deducted the price of a second pass if you cross your time limit. If you wish to go to the 2nd floor, then you can do so freely."

Leo nodded and was about to take his card but the man dodged his grab.

"You will get your card back once you are back," he said.

Leo frowned. He didn't think it would be this hard to just get into a library. He went up the flight of stairs to the first floor. He wasn't slow since the clock was ticking.

When he got to the first floor, he realized why the building looked so huge from the outside. The place was enormous. It made sense that there were only three more floors for the building.

The floor was made of gray wood, with carpets adorning it. On top of the wooden floors were rows upon rows of towering bookshelves that stretched toward the ceiling. Their wooden frames were laden with books and scrolls.

Sunlight streamed through the tall windows, casting gentle rays of illumination on reading tables scattered throughout the space. There were a spare number of people sitting at the desks, but they were engrossed in reading the books that they had chosen.

Leo immediately rushed to check what was on the bookshelves. He ran through the titles of the books, trying to understand what was in the library.

He quickly realized that the floor mainly had information for people just starting on their path. There were books that mainly catered to 1st Circle Aura Knights and Mages.

But that didn't mean that the knowledge within them was useless to him. In fact, it was exactly what he was looking for.
