A little while after the cart started moving, Lucas said. "We just entered the area you pointed to, tell me when we get close." Lake nodded he already knew they were almost there because he could see the dot that represented the journal getting closer the whole time. Lake had to admit he had been wrong about this skill; it was good its uses were just limited.
Watching the dot get closer and closer, Lake said. "It seems to be under whatever road we're on right now. We just went right over it." Lucas looked out the window, and said. "That makes this a little more complicated. I needed to know what building it was in to tell the guild where to send their guy."
Lake didn't see this as too big a deal. "Just send someone to every surrounding building; it has to be one of their basements." From the smell Lake didn't think this city had a sewer, so it was unlikely that the book was being kept in one. "You're right there's no reason to skimp on something like this. This will still be much cheaper than the job in the palace."
"Lucas, do you know what the two buildings we just passed were? If you did, we might be able to guess which was more likely to be an offshoot of the Mage guild." Lucas seemed to like his suggestion because he had the driver turn around and drive past again. "I guess the bookstore is the best guess. The journals don't give off any special magic to show how precious they are or anything, so I could see it ending up for sale here by accident. I bet they don't even know what it is."
Lake thought differently, the fact it was in the basement might mean it was in someone's private collection and not for sale. "Lucas, would it cost more to have them take more than one thing? Because I bet it's in someone's collection, so whatever it's with would probably be worth taking. Most of it was probably stolen from the guild anyway."
It was so obvious that Lake bet Lucas had thought of the possibility every time he went into the dungeon and found nothing. It was probably something he had thought over and over again while he searched, until he was finally forced to accept it and gave up. Lake almost felt bad enough to tell him there was something down there and he could lead him to it.
"So how many had there been when you found them." Lake wanted to know how many they were going to need to get to finish the set the guild had had. "315. The fact that there were so many made me think I had no chance of ever regathering them no matter what, so I never even tried. I was just happy I had the first one. She put all her favorite memories in it because she was afraid she would lose them at any second. The later volumes are about her life before her death and they are in order so a lot of the stuff is mundane and kind of hard to read."
"Is there a noticeable gap when you're reading them, like a big portion is missing?" Lucas made a face like he was getting tired of all the questions and said. "That's enough, I would rather talk about how often you would be willing to help me retrieve journals." Lake just shrugged and said. "Whenever's fine with me, some are really far though so the amount of time we will spend in this cart will probably drive you crazy. I really like asking questions."
Lucas looked at him like he just stated the most obvious thing in the world. "I've noticed you're very curious about almost everything. You should focus more on alchemy, or you'll never make it past journeyman." Lucas would say that considering he was the head of the alchemy guild, but Lake liked to take advice from non biased sources.
...
Lake had just finished the delightful run up the stairs and into the library. He didn't want to spend too much time here so he just grabbed the first book that seemed to have anything to do with jobs and started to look through it. A few minutes later Lake had a list of jobs that gave agility on level up and was out the door and on his way to his bed.
Today had been ridiculous in the amount of things that had happened and he was ready for bed. He was also a little hungry, but not wanting to disturb Millie just to get a snack, Lake decided he would just wait for tomorrow's lunch. Getting to his hallway, Lake saw Solomon's door and thought it would be a good idea to apologize for what had happened at lunch.
The barfing part, not the Joy thing. Solomon needed to continue to think he and Joy were dating or at least until he left and none of the stuff going on here could affect him anymore. Knocking Lake was greeted by one of Solomon's servants and that was enough for Lake. "Will you tell Solomon I said sorry." After that was done Lake turned around and went to his bedroom to sleep.
