Chapter 100: Waiting for Sunset

\'No wonder, Battle Golem is as expensive as an artifact.\' thought Angus.

While learning about the battle golem, Angus found that Battle Golem has a very complicated circuit, rune, enchantment, and many other parts.

All of these parts could only be built in the hands of experts from various kinds of fields. Moreover, it is only to be found in the old Battle Golem. Angus couldn\'t even think of how much advance the current Battle Golem is.

Battle Golem is a huge project that involves a lot of people. It also takes a lot of time and precision to assemble one Battle Golem. It is similar to building a supercar on earth. It needs a lot of material, research, and work from a lot of people.

\'This is only Battle Golem level, I couldn\'t imagine how complex Colossus or Titan level is.\' thought Angus.

Unfortunately, Colossus and Titan could only be created by specific races such as Gremlin and Goblin who are experts at magical engineering.

Like the Halfling race that is an expert at alchemy, Gremlin and Goblin have more aptitude at Magical Engineering stuff. The rumor said there is nothing that these two races could not make.

Some rumors even said that they could even create a battle golem during the fight in a matter of seconds.

However, like the way the world keeps everything balanced, these two races didn\'t have strong physic or combat power. The strongest of their known combatants only could reach fifth grade. But, their Colossus product is comparable to a six-grade combatant.

As for Titan, the rumor said that it could destroy one small island or country from one of its attacks. This is also the reason the technique to create Colossus and Titan is safely guarded, unlike Golem who spread around the world.

After learning various parts, Angus feels like to learn more than from reading dozens of books. Unfortunately, time keeps moving on. Soon, he needs to reluctantly part with the Battle Golem as the magical engineering course time has come to end.

Although Angus is a good student, he still couldn\'t tamper with the golem alone without any teacher supervision. One more move may cause the battle golem to explode and danger himself especially when he touches the core part.

"Thank you for today\'s lesson, teacher Exius." said Angus towards the old teacher.

"No problem, Mr. Victory." replied the old teacher.

Then, Angus goes outside from the Magical Engineering facility. Looking at the time, he still has some time before the sunsets. He decided to go towards the library to borrow some books before going back to his dorm.

Walking through the academy, Angus sees a lot of students passing by and joking peacefully despite the strict rules about the new security policy.

Looking at this, Angus couldn\'t help but smile, \'Maybe this is the true peace I am looking for?\' thought Angus inwardly.

Soon, Angus brushes his unnecessary thoughts and arrives at the library. Entering the library, Angus immediately goes towards one of the receptionists.

"Welcome, is there anything I can help.. Ahh.. Angus" said the student behind the counter,

"Afternoon, John." said Angus.

"Here for another book?" asked John

"Yes, did you have the book about the Archmage Bern." replied Angus.

"Of course, they are quite a popular topic among the magician class. Let me check first which book is available." said John while getting through some device that was similar to a computer.

In Firuman, technology is developing differently than on earth. Because of this, some technology may not be the same as on earth.

After waiting for a while, "Did you also want the biography and some fiction about Archmage Bern?" asked John

After thinking for a while, "Yes, please." replied Angus shortly.

\'I will just read them in my free time.\' thought Angus.

Then, Angus got a slip of note for the book\'s location from John. He went towards the book section and location. He found that there are a lot of books about Archmage Bern. Starting from magical theory, biography, or even his achievement book.

Despite this, Angus still collects all of them. While rummaging through the books, Angus found a fictional novel book as thick as an encyclopedia about Bern\'s tale.

"Err.. isn\'t this book too thick for a fictional book? Whatever, I will read them in my free time." said Angus while collecting the book.

Angus registers all the books he borrows at John before storing them at his wristwatch storage. Achieving his purpose of coming to the library, he immediately walked back to his dorm to enjoy the sunset in his precious spot inside the Dorm\'s garden.

Now, he is not being stalked by Henry anymore. Henry is already in his last year before he graduates. Therefore, he needs to prepare a lot of stuff for the graduation exam.

So, Angus could walk and get rid of this annoying stalker that sometimes gives him more trouble than protection.

Arriving at the dorm\'s garden, Angus found Ian lying on the ground beaten black and blue. He guesses that Ian once again challenges Jayna in a fight.

The current Jayna is already forming her core and could easily beat Ian. There are many differences between someone with a mana core and not. First, they have more mana be it qualitative or quantitative.

Second, their control over mana is better. Although Jayna\'s mana control is weak it is still better than Ian who is still not forming his core.

Finally, their body is also vastly different in strength, speed, reaction, and many others. Although the change is not as big as when monsters form their mana, it is still enough for people to overpower the ordinary person just by using their physical strength.

This is the true difference between someone forming a mana core and not. Except for certain prodigies like Angus, every ordinary person usually will easily lose in a fight against a grade one combatant.

Despite this, Ian keeps challenging Jayna madly. Although Angus himself is kind of a battle maniac, he still uses his head and will not challenge someone rashly. Otherwise, it is just a new kind of idiotic way to suicide.

Ignoring Ian who is laying on the ground, Angus walks towards his spot under the tree and begins to read the books he borrowed while waiting for the sunset scenery.

After a while, Angus notices Millie coming to tend the garden like usual along with Mia. To be exact Mia is accompanying Millie while she takes care of the garden.

"Afternoon, Milie." greet Angus.

"A-Afternoon, Angus." replied Millie.

"Tending the garden like usual?" asked Angus.

"Yes.." replied Millie but she is interrupted by Mia.

"Angus, how many times have I said to you not to talk to Millie?! A lazy bum like you is not worthy of Millie\'s time." rebuked Mia

"M-Mia… That\'s rude. Although Angus is a slacker who is good for nothing, you should never say that in front of him directly." said Millie.

\'Err… Why do I feel my title is getting worse?\' thought Angus while ignoring the bantering of the two girls in front of him.

"Anyway, is it rare for you to read a book, Angus? What book did you read?" asked Millie curiously.

"Ahh… This is nothing important. I just found out that Archmage Bern is an interesting person and I want to know a little bit about him." replied Angus.

"Hmph... At least you are doing something useful once in a while." retorted Mia.

"Mia… That\'s rude!!" rebuked Millie.

"I just stated a fact. Besides, you are also too kind. Because of this, you got into this current problem." said Mia.

"Problem?? Is there something wrong, Millie?" asked Angus curiously.

"N-Nothing.. I just have a feud with some seniors." said Millie.

"Hm… Let me guess, this senior is giving you something like a love letter and forcing you to become his girlfriend." said Angus

"Ehh… How did you know? You are not stalking Millie, right?" said Mia

"Mia…" said Millie but she also wanted to know how Angus knew.

"Well, it is easy to deduce that. Especially for a beautiful and kind girl like you. You may not know this, but your popularity is even heard in the whole academy. Some people even said that you are an Angel descended from heaven." explained Angus.

"Ehh… T-That\'s not true." Millie blushing a little bit from Angus\'s praise.

"Then, you should know your place and not talk to Millie." commented Mia.

"M-Mia… That\'s rude.." said Millie.

"No, Millie, this is for your good. You are too kind to others. You need to be a little bit aggressive to these boys. Otherwise, they will only take advantage of you." said Mia

"B-But, Angus didn\'t do anything wrong except being good for nothing." said Millie.

\'Oii… I am still here.\' thought Angus while feeling insulted directly.

"Ehem.. Why don\'t you ask for help from Jayna? She could easily handle this problem." said Angus.

"Ehh… No way, I can\'t bother the Fourth Princess. Besides that, It\'s rude to call the Fourth Princess by her name. As a noble you should respect her." lectured Millie.

"Don\'t worry, it\'s just some trivial stuff. The person herself also probably didn\'t mind about it." said Angus.

Suddenly, they heard a voice out of nowhere, "Who\'s not minding about it?"
