"!"

Egam woke up inside a library, everything including the wood was neatly polished as if it was marble painted in wood. Every book was properly organized including the chairs and tables, the rows of bookcases seemed to go on towards infinite with each infinite number books being unique to each other. She began reading the titles out of instinct, Egam always had the bottomless appetite for books with knowledge and sometimes pleasure from good novels.

"the king's avatar... Release that witch... Lord of the mysteries..... Nonstop Levelling?" She mumbled while being heavily tempted to pull it out and start reading like a bookworm

"hey Egam!" Someone shouted while she was reading through the interesting titles

The voice was familiar to Egam, it's not easy to forget, that particular tone was similar to remembering someone by their face. The voice came from somewhere, the noise echoed throughout the infinite library so you really couldn't pin point the excact location or even make a guess to where it came from, it could probably come from literally anywhere.

"go right.... I'm right at the manga section, oh its Harry by the way"

As soon as she looked at the manga section, her eyes were literally bombarded with colorful book book cover as if some mad scientist decided to shoot her eyes with a powerful raindow laser cannon. However, Harry wasn't there to be seen but Egam could still clearly hear him.

"Harry? (why is the grand mage here?!)"

"flip that pickle over there, at the table" Harry told her while doing his best not to laugh

Why a pickle? No, why is there even a pickle lying on the table in the first place. Egam was unusually a little terrified by this sudden request granted to her, doing it by hand was out of the question so she grabbed her staff until she noticed it wasn't in here hand. She always held her staff since that was basically her weapon so it's rare to her without one.

She swallowed her now dry saliva and proceeded to slowly reach out her hand to flip the pickle, it seemed unusually dry so it must have been sitting there for quite a while. She swallowed her saliva again and turned the pickle slowly, slowly and slowly and slowly and slowly and then.

"I've turned myself into pickle Egam, I'm pickle Harry!!" Harry shouted while uncontrollably laughing

"what the

Heck!" Egam shouted as she lied in bed with the rest

It was only one bed but somehow the entire party managed to fit themselves in to sleep, it was still night but that weird dream really woke the sleepiness out of her. She didn't really feel the need to sleep, her adrenaline was already kicked in.

"Egam.. shut up we're tryna sleep here" Sarya weakly said while unintentionally snuggling Kai's legs

"..."

Egam's slim and small figure slowly arised from the bed like a vampire waking up from its coffin, she looked outside through the windows, even at night the town is still somewhat very busy. People were still common to be found, shops were still open including a few restaurants. She quickly noticed quite a few people gathered around in a single area, they talked loud and clear so Egam decided to eavesdrop for the time being.

"have you heard?"

"?"

"the main army of the demons are in our region now"

"it hasn't been a year yet, why do early?"

"don't know man, this war could probably end in like two years"

"two years?! I've heard of longer wars than that!"
