Zel finished reading as much as he cared to on the Dark Lord Shabranigdo.. which was basically all the book allowed him to read. This Library was being very secretive. Maybe it somehow suspected him of stealing information? Somehow, he got the feeling that The Library itself had a sort of consciousness-- if that were at all possible. Anyway, Zel set that book down and moved on to Lina Inverse. As he held the book in his hands a thought crossed his mind which had so far escaped him. Had that Peony girl said something to him just as he left? Something about depressing spirits or something? Well what was he supposed to do about it? Even if he gave her some useful advice (there were ways in the magic of his world to seal ghosts and spirits) she wouldn't remember it when she left. It would just be cruel to get her hopes up in these brief moments.<br/><br/>Zel gave a sigh, deciding he had no place meddling in her world anyway. He turned his attention back to Lina's book and opened it up. A large chunk of pages at the front were blank. That must have been the time before he met Lina. Reading this book was kind of nostalgic for him. Although it focused on Lina, it recounted all of them and their adventures together... Not all of it was nostalgic in a good way, but if it was he would have suspected forgery.<br/><br/>He got to a certain point which triggered some memories he'd forgotten. He could remember now, what had happened just before he wound up here. He'd been watching Lina quickly beat the stuffing out of Jillas again. He'd been standing on the sidelines simply because she didn't need any help with it. Hey, even Sylphiel could beat up this moron. How he kept surviving was beyond him. Zel closed the book. With that settled, he may as well go report what he'd found to the Librarian. Suddenly though, Zel found himself eying Xellos Metalium's book. The guy was so mysterious... he may as well have a peek. Besides, he'd forget it as soon as he left anyway.
