Tales of the Supremes 4 HEAVENLY LIBRARY

Tala stored the 'Guiding Silver Feathers' to her holy ring. It was a magnificent golden ring. It is similar to storage ring used by human but holy ring is more special than storage ring because it is part of the guardian's body. Tala can materialize the holy ring as long as she wanted and she can hide it inside her finger where no one will be able to see it. This is one of the greatness of being a guardian. Guardian's weapon is part also of their body. With their call, their weapon will materialize and store as they wanted.

Tala arrived at a vast school. 'Holy Guardian Academy' was written on top of the wide and tall school gate. Even though it was already night, she can clearly read the words as clear as day. A lot of luminescent stones light up the school's ground.

The school's ground was always open especially for the students. There are 5 class and Tala is in the beginning class, the 5th class. 5th class consist of more than 200 students, 4th class consist of more than 100 students, 3rd class consist of more than 50 students, 2nd class consist of 25 students and only 5 students in 1st class.

Tala steadily walk into the hallway while reminiscing her past memory. A moment later, she arrived in front of a golden door and a sign board can be seen on top with 'Heavenly Library' words written on it.

Tala pushed the door. Anyone can access the library as long as you are a guardian. Every door needed an infuse heavenly energy to open it but in some cases, a specific heavenly energy needed to open a special ground. Like the office of the Head, only the Head and Vice-head can freely go in and out. Every private residence is like this too. She walk in and an astonishing vast of collection of books can be seen.

Tala didn't wait for some time. She immediately dashed in to the atlas section. She immediately looked for the 'Holy map'.

'This is it!' Tala's eyes lit up. She take the map near the table and open it. It emits a white light. Upon opening it, she saw a blank page. 'Got yah!'

Tala look for the librarian.

"Tala, what are you looking for?" A young lady asked.

Tala was startled upon seeing the owner of the voice.

"Tala pays respect to Senior Ema." Tala clasped her fist and bowed. "I was looking for the librarian." She said respectfully. This lady is in 1st class, one of the top 5 student in school.

"Oh, I'm the librarian." The lady chuckled.

Tala can't find a word. She know that librarian was a job for only 5th to 3rd class because the higher class needed to devote their time in purifying their heavenly energy. To achieve a greater power, they needed time that's why the elder decided this set up. 'Maybe, she was punish? whatever!'

"Are you planning to borrow that map?" Ema said while pointed the map in Tala's hand.

"Ah, yes!" Tala didn't voice out her curiosity.

Ema put a green book in the table and said, "Put your Identification token in the cover and infuse energy while you utter the name of the object you're going to borrow."

Tala put her token in the cover and utter "Holy Map."

"Your name is now recorded in this book. You can keep it but make sure not to lose it. If proven that you lose it unintentionally or intentionally, you'll need to compensate." Ema warned her.

"I understand. Thank you!" Tala clasped her fist and bid farewell.

Tala saw a boy reading a book with knitted eyebrows. She walked near him and sit on the opposite chair.

The young man raised his head and upon seeing Tala in front of him, he turn his face emotionless.

"Is there any problem? May I know? Maybe I can help you!" Tala put a smile.

The boy just gave her a glance and put back his attention to the book.

"I maybe doesn't looks like a scholar, but I know a thing or two. Maybe I would be able to aid you." Tala insisted.

"Really?" the boy asked sarcastically.

"Try me!" Tala wanted to help this boy. He unselfishly fought with them when the war broke in. She will never forget it.

"According to the book, in order to purify the heavenly energy in the 2nd level, you'll need to feel the surrounding and begin to absorb the energy of nature. Coat thyselves using inner energy and the work will be done. I try to do this method but nothing is happening. What can you say?" Adasa frowned. That's right, the boy is Adasa.

"As expected to you. You are really hardworking. Let me take a look." Tala didn't bother the emnity face of the boy towards her. "To feel the surrounding, given your strength you need a place rich of nature's energy. You can't do it here. You need to find a suitable place. As for the absorption of the nature's energy, using your inner energy is not enough. You will just exhaust yourself. Instead, coat your whole body with your heavenly energy. That will do. The rest is up to the heavenly energy to do the work. That is the easiest method I know." Tala continue.

"Heavenly energy? Are you taking me for a fool." Adasa continue, "Heavenly energy can attract the nature's energy but I am trying to absorb the nature's energy to make it my heavenly energy. The only solution is to use the inner energy to divert the nature's energy to be my heavenly energy."

"You're right but it's only a basic method. A method suitable for those who have sufficient inner energy. But, you lack this kind of energy." Tala explained calmly.

"You are right, but it's not your problem if I Iack inner energy. I will never use your stupid method." Although Adasa know that maybe Tala's words are right, he feel emnity towards her.

"If you use that method, not only your heavenly energy that will increase by leaps and bounds, your inner energy will do the same." Tala stand up and continue, "I'll give you the permission to use and share it. It's your choice if you believe me or not."

Tala stand up next to a young man sitted on a wooden chair. Tala hand over a note to Adasa.

"Here, take this!" Tala said with a cute smile.

"Why would I?" Adasa was a bit perplexed to her action.

"Just take this!" Tala frowned.

"Just put it on the table." Adasa said.

"What are you afraid of? This is just a paper and you can't even touch it." Tala was a bit angry right now.

Adasa was a little doubtful to Tala's action but he take the paper from Tala's hand eventually.

"The method I imparted to you will truly increase your inner energy by leaps and bounds too. I am definetely sure!" Tala rest assured. She continue, "I just want you not to tell others about me."

Tala bid farewell to the perplexed Adasa.

Upon hearing Tala's words, his eyes lit up. 'To increase one inner energy, the main source of energy, by leaps and bounds is a dream of all guardian. If I can achieve it, I will no longer have a hard time strengthening my energy.

Tala and I are not in a good terms, but helping me this lot...'

"Forget it. I should try it first if it is truly effective." he murmured.
