Chapter 114 (1/2)

What happened next?” Celeste demanded from atop my shoulder.

I shook my head. “I don’t know.”

“What? What is that about?”

“I said, this is only part of the story. There are other rooms like this strewn about the mansion. They should have the other mosaics and will provide more of the story.”

“Really! They do?” Celeste asks excitedly.

I leaned away, as she was leaning so close her breasts were nearly in my eyes. They were small, but up this close they looked like the first time I had seen them. They even jiggled a bit, which seemed like it broke the physics engine for this world.

“Yes… if we keep going down, then…”

“Not necessary!” Celeste said excitedly. “I’ll take you to the next room! You’ll tell me the rest of the story if I take you to all the rooms, correct?”

“Ah… to the best of my knowledge, sure?”

“Yay!” She jumped off my shoulder and flapped her wings, flying off, “Then, let’s go! Let’s go!”

“W-wait! It’s late and I’m tired! The next library is probably a few floors down.”

“Pfft! That’s easy! Just follow me!”

“O-okay…”

{Celeste is now in your party.}

Ah, so people from this world can form parties too. It looked like it really was something as simple as “follow me”. She floated over to a pillar in the middle of the room. I didn’t really know what it was. It most resembled the altar from the cathedral-like rooms I had entered in the previous dungeon. She felt around for a moment, and then the pillar suddenly glowed.
