Chapter 7 - Chapter 7- The Library trail and technique to complete quest

Location: Royal Palace – Inner Chambers

In their private quarters, Bianca and Leraka were summoned by the royal guards.

"Miss Bianca, Miss Leraka—His Majesty requests your presence."

They followed in silence, entering a chamber where Vestora stood beside the glowing Destroyer Pyramid.

Bianca bowed slightly.

"Why did you call us, Majesty?"

Vestora smiled gently.

"We're friends. Students. Teammates. Call me just Vestora—no formalities."

He gestured to the pyramid.

"Touch it. You'll receive three random skills. It's time to awaken your true path."

Bianca stepped back, eyes glowing with new power.

"I… I've become Pandora. A box caster. Not book. It simulates futures."

The room fell silent. Even Jasface looked stunned.

"What is this class?"

Vestora nodded calmly.

"We'll find out in the next quest. For now—train. Prepare. Pandora may be our key."

Following Bianca's awakening, Leraka stepped forward and placed her hand on the Destroyer Pyramid. A surge of radiant light enveloped her, pulsing with water and spirit energy.

Bianca nodded, impressed. Vestora smiled.

"Team Twisted Edge now holds Pandora and Dragoon. Let's test them soon."

Time: 12:00

Jasface entered the chamber.

The team stepped into a vast, echoing hall—walls lined with glowing tomes, floating scrolls, and whispering codices. The air shimmered with ancient wisdom.

Jasface stood at the entrance, voice solemn.

"Welcome to the Library of Hidden Worlds.

It holds over 1 crore books, from elemental treatises to transcendent memoirs.

This is your next trial."

Rules & Environment

"Each of you must read 100 books.

No speed boosts. No duplication magic. No shortcuts.

Food is available in the café. I'll be stationed there.

No talking. Only silence and focus."

Jasface turned to leave.

"I'll return in 25 hours. Good luck."

Vestora's Strategy

As the silence settled, Vestora whispered to his team:

"Big books take time. Let's pick short books—around 100 pages each.

We'll make a fast stack of 100 per person."

Bianca activated Ghost Mode, scanning the library's layout and locating the shortest volumes.

Leraka followed, gathering the books with precision.

After 2 hours, the trio had assembled their reading stacks.

The Challenge Begins

Vestora looked at the others.

"We must clear at least 40 books today."

Bianca blinked.

"Why 40?"

Vestora's eyes narrowed.

"To beat Team Tech Tunes. They hold the record.

We'll break it. Quietly. Efficiently."

Leraka nodded.

"Let's do this."

After reading ten dense books, Vestora leaned back, eyes narrowing.

"This is boring. I have a plan."

He turned to Bianca.

"Use Ghost Mode. Search for magazines—they count as books too."

Bianca nodded, phasing into spectral form. She glided through the library's labyrinthine shelves, scanning for overlooked volumes.

1 Hour Later – Discovery

Bianca returned, eyes gleaming.

"Floor 17, Shelf 8. I found 500 magazines—each 50 pages.

They're titled Questoria Time: Basic Knowledge Series.

Compact, rich, and fast to read."

Vestora smiled.

"Perfect. Team Twisted Edge—let's move. These magazines have multiple parts. We'll finish faster."

The trio relocated, stacks of slim magazines in hand. Silence returned. Pages turned. Focus deepened.

20 Hours Later – Jasface Returns

Jasface entered the library café, visibly exhausted.

"Majesty… I'm tired. You left so much work in the kingdom."

Vestora didn't flinch.

"I don't care. Work hard. I'll clear the academy in three years.

And good news—we're tired too.

But we finished the quest."

He stood tall.

"100 books read in one day.

We shattered Team Tech Tunes' record—by half a day."
