Knights, Magic, and Technology
chapter 45's

arcane walked among the people with a heavy feeling, not because of his words but because he was currently in the territory of the upper class or nobility but they had unkempt slaves.

as always, those in power and influence can do what they want, especially in this era of slavery.

arcane feels crowded neither in his old world nor today the humans are very cruel to each other, in the previous world although not called slaves but their treatment is the same.

it is to torment those below and to make as much profit as possible from their sweat and tears.

if he could buy all the slaves and build a civilization to change, but he was also realistic if it worked out there must be people who did the same because of greed and greed.

arcane looked at those who continued to serve her employer until she was unknowingly in front of a bookstore.

because gray is not far from the arcane into, when entering many shelves containing various old and new books.

arcane looked around and began walking through the store because it was so quiet that the store had an atmosphere of tranquility in silence, he found that most were books of poetry, history, and stories.

arcane Trus looked around and he found that there were parts of training techniques ranging from sword techniques to magic books, and uniquely now arcane saw there is a technique of absorption training mana.

arcane began to be interested and took the type of book, because the type of book that is not too much so he took some, fruit and went straight to the reading table available in the store.

followed by gray standing next to him, Arcane began to read the book and was immersed in his focus on learning.

a while later a woman wearing maid clothes came, she had a pretty cute look with a calming aura that was all around her.

he approached arcane and offered shop service.

"excuse me sir, do you have an order to accompany your reading?"

arcane silently did not respond, the waiter was confused and he looked at gray.

"ehem, master is like that when reading.

so don't step aside, just a second"

gray then held onto arcane's shoulder and said that the shopkeeper had come.

"master, ....the shopkeeper came"

when his shoulder was held in arcane immediately realized and turned to find gray and 1 stranger, and he also put on a question mark expression.

seeing that the waiter said again.

"this store has a service of buying drinks and selling cakes to accompany you mambaca, are you interested?"

arcane understood and immediately said.

"oh.....

I order tea may be long so provide 2 cups and 1 teapot, and I order 2 servings of snacks that you guys recommend or the most delicious here"

the waiter nodded and left, while arcane looked at the gray who continued to stand in his place.

"the gray?

why are you still standing there?"

gray was a little confused by the words arcane then arcane again said because he saw gray's expression.

"sit here, this table is still quite spacious and has 3 empty seats"

gray then replied with a slight hesitation.

arcane smiled then said.

"my words are all the same, I don't care about things like that.

so come here"

gray hesitantly sat down in the arcane, hesitating he sweated quite a lot, while Arcane just laughed a little at gray's behavior.

arcane continued reading and increasingly read more and more questions that were on his mind about the natural phenomenon called mana.

then someone came in the maid's clothes, not the maid's but it was a man in a neat and charming suit.

the person sat in front of the arcane and stared with a serious expression.

"you're thinking too much about things"

arcane stopped reading it and looked at it.

"what do you mean? "

the man smiled then as fast as lightning he picked up the 2 books that were in the arcane bracelet.

"i'll take this book"

arcane was surprised and checked his bracelet again, he knew that even though he did not remember the book but his instincts told him that he was the owner of the book.

angrily he started to give off his mana aura.

"you!, return my belongings! "

but the man shook his hand and instantly arcane like an ordinary person who could not do anything like an ordinary person.

"calm down, I'm not the enemy let me explain"

arcane regained his composure and began to dissipate his aura, then after calming down the man continued his words.

"this book is dangerous to you even this world, I don't know your nature but this book can make someone wild and savage and one of them becomes uncontrollable.

well even though you can make yourself the strongest person in this world, but every world has rules, even though some people violate the rules, but those rules should not be too deviant, it would only make the world chaotic.

so I take this book, and I'll compensate you "

the man then flicked his hand again then from the void appeared two books that had brown covers.

the man gave arcane the book, and of course he accepted it.

arcane was actually a little confused but he still chose to accept it, then he again saw the man but the man disappeared from before him.

arcane was confused and then he went out with gray, not forgetting he paid the fee at the store.

when he turned around the store disappeared and there was only an empty space like a dead end alley, he turned around and said to gray.

"gray do you remember there's a bookstore here? "

gray confusedly replied

"isn't we just at a restaurant sir?, the book here is a luxury item sir, if there is a bookstore certainly if you want to buy it will be very expensive"

arcane was confused and did not continue it he decided to return home and choose silence because unwittingly the day was approaching night.
