The Tale of Hero Alice's Social Death Chapter 114

PHA – Chapter 114 – As Expected

“What to do?” Zauna asked worriedly as she looked at Alice.

As for Luna, although she did not speak, the gaze she cast to Alice was similarly filled with doubt.

“What else can I do but meet this person alone?” Alice said carefreely. Since she transmigrated to this world, the only secrets she had to hide were her identity as the Hero and the Demon King. She hadn't done any scandalous things that other people could use to threaten her. So, it wouldn't hurt her even if she met this person.

At worst, Alice's fake identity as the princess would get found out. After all, Hatter's reputation as the king had always been excellent. If someone had the determination to sieve through Hatter's history, they could certainly find the flaws in Alice's identity.

“Don't worry. Do you two really think I'll get into any danger?” Alice asked, chuckling when she saw the worried looks on Zauna's and Luna's faces. Then, she subconsciously touched the “hair ties” used to tie her double ponytails and continued, “I might look weak normally, but if it comes down to a fight, I should be able to deal with it unless the Demon King comes.”

The possibility that the other party was the Demon King was also extremely low. After all, Luna had assimilated with a portion of the Demon King's Power's strength. The Demon King's Power would need to accumulate its strength for some time before it would start finding a new host.

The reason why Alice had chosen to study taboos in the March Royal School of Magic was also to use this brief reprieve to increase her strength so that she wouldn't have to rely on panties to fight all the time.

“That's true.”

Zauna felt that Alice's words made sense. Alice was someone who had summoned an entire mountain to crush the Boria Wolf King. Even if she could use it only once in a while, it was already more than enough to deal with most enemies she faced. Alice should have nothing to worry about unless the matured Demon King came.

However, when Zauna recalled the additional mountain that had appeared in the Gryffin Forest, a different worry appeared in her mind as she said, “But make sure you don't summon a mountain in the academy.”

“Don't worry. I know how far I should go.”

Alice smiled awkwardly. She, too, remembered the mountain she summoned to flatten the Boria Wolf King. However, Zauna's worries were unfounded this time since Alice had already inspected the skills of her two hair ties.

Of the two, the one on her left ponytail was a single target spell, while the one on her right ponytail was an AOE attack. All she needed to do was choose which taboo to use depending on the situation.

Moreover, Alice technically wouldn't be meeting with Academy Know-It-All by herself. After all, the stone tablet she carried inside her second weapon storage box housed Kristine's soul.

Meanwhile, after deciding to meet Academy Know-It-All, Alice quickly replied to the other party's message:

“No problem. Where should we meet? Do we meet up now?”

Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks

“I'm on the library's 27th floor, inside the small cubicle next to shelf D10. You can meet me here.”

Academy Know-It-All replied almost immediately, giving Alice the feeling that the other party was waiting for her reply. However, what surprised her was that the other party was also in the library. Could it be such a coincidence?

“I'll be going now,” Alice said to Zauna and Luna before leaving.

Meanwhile, Zauna and Luna could only nod and watch as Alice walked to the elevator lobby.

The library's elevators were similar to Earth's elevators. Alice guessed that another unfortunate transmigrator must've “invented” it before passing away.

After the elevator arrived on the 27th floor, Alice stepped out of the metal box and scanned the floor. Unlike the 10th floor, the 27th floor was surprisingly packed with people. Not only were most of the tables and chairs occupied, but even the ten computers used for searching books were fully occupied.

Feeling a little surprised, Alice took a look at a random bookshelf. Then, realization dawned upon her—this entire floor was reserved for novels and comics. It was no wonder why there were so many students here.

Fortunately, the library enforced silence, so most people were immersed in their own worlds right now, earnestly reading the comics or novels in their hands. They did not notice Alice coming out of the elevator at all.

Of course, if Alice overstayed her welcome, it was very likely that someone would notice her. So, she quickly looked through the bookshelves and located bookshelf D10.

Shelf D10 was similarly packed with comic books. Meanwhile, located at the end of the bookshelf was a small cubicle. Seeing this, Alice guessed that Academy Know-It-All must be an avid fan of comics. The other party had most likely been reading a comic here when he received Alice's message.

After pondering for a moment, Alice gently knocked on the cubicle's door, making sure not to make too much noise and draw attention to herself.

“Are you here?” a crisp female voice came from inside the cubicle. Then, the cubicle door opened slightly, and a head popped out through the gap. “Good. It seems you really came alone.”

Alice froze for a moment when she saw the other party's face. Then, realization dawned upon her:

“So it's you.”

Alice was previously confused as to why this Academy Know-It-All seemed to know that she was in the library from the very beginning. It turned out that it was because the other party had already seen her when she entered the library.

“Hehe, surprised?” the blonde girl with red eyes, who had attracted Alice's attention in the library's lobby, said with a sly smile. Then, she retracted her head back into the cubicle and opened the door a little more, saying, “Come on in. You wanted to know how to get to the underground workshop, right? I have the answer you want here.”
