Three years later, in the Shadowcrest Castle library.
"I finally completed it, the Compendium of the Basic Water Element!" Nero shouted happily.
Ever since reading that trash book on the Basic Water Ball spell, Nero had vowed to revise it to perfection.
Thinking of using the Heavenly System to correct all the flaws in the book, Nero quickly sprang into action.
Crawling through every collection of water-element books, Nero made a horrifying discovery.
All the tier 0 books he found were full of loopholes—so much so that he became sick for several days.
If not for his father healing him with unknown methods, he might have been plagued by nightmares from then on.
Stepping out of the shadows, Nero vowed never to read a book again until he could scan all the water-element books into the Heavenly System.
Seeing imperfections and not being able to fix them felt like torture.
