Chapter 9 - Secrets of a Café

Daniel and Dante arrive at a café called Genesis Order. They exit the carriage, with Daniel gazing at Dante as if admiring his features.

"This café serves as a front for our group. This is where you were held the other day, and it is also where you'll be operating. We'll teach you most things today, so do not worry."

Daniel opened the double doors for Dante, giving him a playful look, which Dante noticed, reflecting his understanding of Daniel's personality and admiration.

Both of them enter the café, where a barista recognizes Daniel and lets him into the back area.

They reach a storage room filled with various boxes of materials. Daniel leads Dante further inside, and once they reach the back of the room, Daniel looks back to ensure Dante is following. He places his hand against the wall, and suddenly, the wall parts, revealing a machine that moves up and down.

Dante stares at the room with awe, never having seen anything like it. They step in, and it begins to descend.

"This is where you begin your training. After completing this, you can officially become a sorcerer. Before that, you must learn about what sorcery is, as well as the source of its power and its origin. However, studying the origin is not mandatory."

Daniel says briefly before the machine stops at the bottom opening up to a massive dungeon under the café.

Daniel and Dante step out of the Machine Dante looking around this dungeon with awe fascinated by its size and prominent energy.

"I know I already said this a multitude of times but this is where you'll learn about sorcery, how to use it, and how to control your divine gifts."

Daniel leads Dante through many corridors passing by many rooms with different signs such as Library, Alchemy, and Armory.

Daniel notices Dante's fascination with the dungeon finding it adorable. They stop at the door of the library Daniel opens it revealing a large Libary with hundreds of shelves with possibly thousands of books.

"Do you like the Library Dante? We put a lot of work into it, all of these books contain knowledge of sorcery, and spells endless knowledge of everything you need to know."

Daniel and Dante approach the shelves, Daniel grabs three books and leads Dante to a table placing them in front of him.

"These are the books we'll look at i'm going to teach you a little differently than I'm supposed to but that's okay."

Daniel gives Dante a reassuring smile, Dante looks a little concerned by his mysterious teaching methods but has no choice but to comply.

Daniel opens the book to page 84/400 the contents within are talking about "spiritual energy."

"What is this Spiritual energy? it sounds extremely mysterious" Dante reads further in but it the more he reads the harder it becomes to understand as if the words were bending his mind.

He quickly looks away from the book before something happens to his mind possibly warping it in many ways.

Daniel smirks with amusement as always, and he slides his finger on the edge of the book "What's wrong feel something dear?" Daniel brings his hands together crossing his fingers with a light smirk on his face.

Dante stares at him confused hesitating to open or even look at the book again, 'What the hell was that it was like the book was attacking my mind.' Dante thinks scared of what the book might do to him.

Daniel continues staring at Dante now tapping his right index finger over his left one, "You must really feel it now huh the fear of what might happen if you open that book"

Dante looks up into Daniel's perfect emerald eyes trying to figure out what he's thinking.

"Do not worry Dante that's not the real book we'll use, I just wanted to see something interesting the other two are the real books.

Dante narrows his eyes now suspicious of Daniel and what he is up to. 'Such an interesting individual you are Dane it fascinates me I wonder what else I can get out of you.' Daniel thinks to himself watching Dante glare at him while grabbing another book.
