"Are you saying that you\'ve memorized all of the books that you had picked up, casually flipped through, and placed down on the shelves?"

The librarian came from a race where people could live for a hundred and fifty years. His people shared 75% similarities with humans. They could evolve three times, and each evolution would add another 150 years. There were two stripes on his head, meaning he had become twice. It has lived for 365 years and has come across many prodigies, both good and evil, but not even a single one of them dared proclaim that they would be able to memorize a book by merely flipping through it.

Many visitors were interested in the confrontation between the two. They were all looking at them, and they had their ears perked up, intent on eavesdropping on their talk. Hearing their conversation led them to believe that either something was wrong with Elliot or something was wrong with their ears.

All in all, the onlookers had the same thought as the librarian.

They just couldn\'t believe Elliot.

Heck, even the latest esoteric technology produced by the soul race that was the center and the trading partner of many civilizations couldn\'t do that!

So, how could they believe that a mere human who belonged to a low-end civilization had better memorization capabilities than a robot?

Even robots had to go through each page to record the contents inside of them, not flip through them!

"My eyesight is sharp, and I don\'t forget what I see even once. A single glance is all it takes for me to get things in my brain. In my homeworld, I am called the greatest bookworm in history!" Elliot said, adding spices to his name, praising himself with a straight face, mixing black with gallons of white, gingerly making others believes his white lies through his innocent eyes, "So, yes, I have. Don\'t you believe me?"

How hard was it to believe his words?

Consider ten thousand miniature versions of yourself slapping their foreheads and screaming at you not to believe him; that\'s how much hard it was for the librarian and the onlookers to believe him.

"If you prove it to me, I will allow you to head to the second floor and read books there for free."

"If not?"

"I will kindly ask you to leave."

The librarian wasn\'t willing to offend and wasn\'t willing to let go of a nuisance maker. He had a reputation to keep up, and not punishing a person for flipping through books and making noise pollution would make it look like he was easy to bully. At the same time, if Elliot were really as intelligent as he said, offending him would do him no good.

Thus, the librarian chose the modified carrot and stick method.

He would punish Elliot if he failed to live up to his words.

To make up for his hard attitude, he would reward Elliot if he lived up to his words.

That way, there would be no bad blood between them!

"I\'m willing to prove my worth. Please do not hesitate to do the honor of verifying my intellect and Intelligence."

Elliot wanted to go to the second floor, but it had no vacant seats, meaning he couldn\'t even enter it. The best books were in there, and he wanted to explore them at least once. Winning over the librarian would give him a free ticket to the place he wanted to go. Not to mention, he would also be able to read costly books for free. And all he needed to do was prove that he was telling the truth, something that wasn\'t hard for him to do.

Thus, he accepted the librarian\'s deal with a smile.

"Umm, you\'ve mostly read books on beasts, their habitat, ways of attacking, ways of defending, how to dismember them, what parts of their body is a treasure, and so on. I will ask ten questions related to ten different books on beats that you\'ve flipped through. If you manage to provide a suitable answer, I will honor my words and let you enter the second floor." Said the librarian as he picked up a few books from the bookshelves. All of them had Elliot\'s fingerprints; the librarian could see thanks to his enhanced eyesight. Deep Fingerprints meant that Elliot had held the book for a while and flipped through it, the librarian thought to himself.

Elliot had a how-long-do-I-have-to-wait look on his face while the onlookers were looking forward to seeing a show.

"The first question, where can a person go to look for a Dark Heart?"

For a while, Elliot didn\'t say a thing. What was he doing? Well, he was unearthing all the information related to Dark Heart from his hippocampus region. The others didn\'t know that, and they already started assuming that Elliot was putting up an act of being a super-genius before and that he had no way of maintaining it now!

"Not many places, that\'s for sure," Elliot started with a casual joke to break the tension in the air, and before anyone could say a thing, he added, "It forms only on places where dimensions to the ghost realm or hell realms open up. The cause is the chaotic energy that is opposite to everything us living beings stand for. Anyone who breathes in the chaotic energy and isn\'t able to endure its invasion and corruption would lose their sanity and get possessed by the instinct of destruction.. The moment that happens, their hearts will turn dark, which means that the chaotic energy had already taken roots in their heart and taken over their bodies, leaving others with no choice but to kill them."
