Chapter 102 77th Lifetime
Chapter 102 The Seventy-Seventh Generation
A parrot flew in through the open window and landed precisely on the parrot stand.
Then, in a hoarse voice, he began to chant with great passion:
"Wait, wait, wait! It's library time now, exactly noon."
Then it began broadcasting the latest rumors it had heard.
Aside from some gossip and idle chatter, the information was mostly about slaves, ghost ships, and demonization incidents.
Aaron has been hearing similar news a lot lately, and some of the events seem to have been reported repeatedly.
These events appear to have become focal points, or have been occurring frequently recently, and have had a significant impact.
However, Aaron was more concerned about the pheasant that reported the news than the news itself.
It was radio number seventy-seven, and only then did Aaron realize that it had been in service for a year.
No wonder he always feels enthusiastic and energetic when he hears the news broadcasts lately.
If it were that old bird, number seventy-six, it would have lazily finished delivering the message in a listless manner, then patted its tail feathers and flew away.
Thinking of this, Aaron went to the mirror and looked at his somewhat weathered face.
In the past, whenever the parrots were handed over, Aaron would add one to the suffix of his name.
Aaron only put the matter aside for the time being because Annie and Lola were around.
However, now that the two girls are gone, Aaron can finally consider picking up the matter again.
Without hesitation, Aaron immediately activated the abilities from "Catherine's Amorous Travels," drawing upon his extraordinary power to manipulate the texture of his skin. Instantly, the wrinkles on his face became moist and firm.
Aaron examined the details of the skin and couldn't help but smile.
Yes, I still look better in my younger self.
Suddenly, the person in the mirror started moving on their own.
The person in the mirror rested their chin on their hand, stared at Aaron for a long time, and murmured:
"Hey—Lady Aure's abilities are really useful."
Aaron's eyelids drooped, feeling somewhat disappointed.
But the person in the mirror is right. Currently, the supernatural power that Aaron uses most frequently is Aure's ability.
The person in the mirror, in Aaron's form, stood in the mirror world and curtsied to Aaron:
"Welcome to my new master, Mr. Aaron Mosley VIIVII."
Aaron ignored it. Unless he was really bored, he didn't want to talk to this lying mirror any longer and prepared to turn and leave.
Just then, Aaron noticed that the contents of his "Banned Books Borrowing Record" had suddenly changed.
New text and information have appeared on the previously blank sixth page of the book!
Aaron quickly looked toward the door, but the library door remained firmly in place, and no one entered.
He was somewhat confused, so he immediately examined the contents of the "Banned Books Borrowing Record" carefully, and suddenly realized:
[Borrower, Serial Number VI]
Name: Christopher Gamma
[Compatible with banned book: "The Guide to Determining Fate"]
[Level of Mastery: 0%]
[Borrowing date: January 19, 1586 (French calendar)]
[Book Return Date: Not Returned]
These days, Aaron has thoroughly checked all the books in the library and has determined which banned books are missing.
That book, "The Guide to Destiny," was one of the two forbidden books that Anne had secretly taken from the library.
In other words, the borrower named Crostoff never came to the library; he obtained the banned book directly from Anne.
Aaron was also surprised; it turned out that the chosen one could borrow forbidden books without going to the library.
But more than that, Aaron was concerned about why Anne was able to identify who was the appropriate person for the corresponding book.
He never believed from the beginning that Anne stole the forbidden books from the library because she was naughty.
In the thousand years since Aaron came into this world, there have indeed been a few people who know the secret of his immortality.
But no one ever knew about the "Banned Books Borrowing Record".
Therefore, it's impossible that Anne took the forbidden book for Aaron's sake.
Only a few months after Anne left, the forbidden book encountered a suitable user, and Aaron found it hard to believe that this was just a coincidence.
Besides, there are so many books in the library, why did she specifically take these two? It's as if she knew in advance that she would meet the perfect match for these two books.
Aaron strode back to the registration counter, rested his hand on the counter, and pondered quietly.
He focused his attention on the contents of the "Banned Books Borrowing Record," hoping to glean as much information as possible from the few words and phrases recorded therein.
The date is today, which means that Anne just handed the forbidden book to Christopher.
And the suitable book is "A Guide to Destiny Interpretation".
Aaron recalled the contents of the forbidden book and immediately remembered the extraordinary power it contained.
A smile immediately appeared on his face, and he murmured:
"I see-""
Aaron roughly guessed Anne's motives and why she was able to find a suitable match for the forbidden book.
This is certainly not a coincidence.
However, Aaron also realized that since the books had accurately reached Christopher's hands through Anne's, this meant that...
Anne and Christopher have been in contact.
So, under what circumstances did the two of them transfer ownership of the books?
Aaron was somewhat worried, since there was no evidence to prove whether Annie handed over the books voluntarily or involuntarily.
Aaron had no idea what kind of person Christopher was.
Aaron couldn't help but feel uneasy at the thought that Anne might be in danger.
