79 Unique Soul Type Technique 2 (2/2)
Despite Elder Flyleaf's determination, he had no good answer for his long-time friend. He could only shake his head, ”we must trust that things were made like this for a reason. Trust our ancestors and trust the gods we came from. They gave us our strength, our faith and our future. We can't forsake them.”
”If only the old and devoted generation could still fight…”
”if only we could still fight…”

Dyon walked around the school completely oblivious to the fact he had inadvertently become part of something much bigger than himself.
Soon, after wandering aimlessly, Dyon finally found something that resembled a library because of a sign displaying a book. Following up a spiraled stair case in the school pavilion, Dyon suddenly wondered about what Ri could possibly doing. Because of his distraction, he didn't notice the odd glances he was getting as he climbed the stairs, and couldn't be bothered to focus on whispers.
”who's that,” someone looking up asked.
”Don't mind him, if he's entering that library, it must be because he has the authority to. If he doesn't have an allowed access, then someone else will deal with his punishment, there's no need to get involved and potentially end up with our efforts unappreciated.”
The students who heard him nodded in agreement. They weren't of high enough standing to really know who had access to this library or not. What Dyon didn't know, was that this stair case was a direct entrance to the 5th floor of the library of Acacia Academy. In all his searching, he hadn't managed to find the main entrance. However, the main reason no one stopped him was the same reason those entrances never had any guards to begin with. For one, no one dared to break the rules. Secondly, access to exclusive areas of the school were decided by the amount of soul pressure you could withstand. While Dyon was lost in thought, he hadn't even noticed that something was pressuring his soul. Or maybe, more accurately, to him, the pressure was so minuscule that it wasn't worth noticing.
The surrounding crowd could only watch in awe as a boy that couldn't possibly be more than 15 years old, climbed stairs even the best of geniuses at his age couldn't.
