Chapter 78: Ch 78: Everyone's Activities
Even Rein was a bit surprised to see how honest Xa actually was. Rein had guessed that she was an honest and earnest person and that was the reason why he wanted to become friends with her. But even he had not expected her to be so honest.
To not shame her honesty, Rein also told her about their power level properly. He explained to her the power scaling system he had created for the people above the power level of normal power scaling.
Xa found it to be extremely interesting and useful so she immediately asked Rein if she could use this system in her family or not. Rein had no reason to deny her so he easily gave his permission. Rein actually had the intention of slowly making his own scaling process to be the mainstream system.
So, in that regard if another powerful organisation with transcendental rank people in it started to use it, that was better for Rein\'s objectives.
After Za was done noting down the details about this system, she happily went back to her work of reading many documents. She was still wearing clothes that were completely covering her everything like she always did when she was in the presence of a person and not alone. Seeing that Rein told her -
"Xa, as I just told you, I\'m quite strong, so your ability will not have any effect on me. Even then if you find me staring at you that can only happen because of your true inner and outer beauty and not because of any external factors. Feel free to show your face in my presence.
I will not be affected."
Hearing Rein, Xa pause. She had given up on the idea of interacting with people normally after the effect of her ability changed.
But now that Rein was telling her that he would not be affected and she might be able to have a normal face to face conversation with a person again, she was extremely happy.
So she started to slowly remove the layers upon layers of clothing that were hiding her whole body and face. Soon an extremely beautiful girl with slightly dark coloured skin and white hair with purple shading. Her eyes were bright green and had a confident but shy glint in it.
After seeing her Rein gave her a light hug. But he did not give off any lustful feelings and only caring ones. This was the first time Xa was hugged by any person after her ability changed and she felt very good while enjoying the warmth of a different person after a long time.
After ending the hug Rein told her that he wanted to help her with her work. So if there was something that was non confidential, then he would like to help her with that. Xa was happy with this offer of help as working side by side with a good friend was a dream come true for her.
Rein was quite adept at these management type works after his continuous practice with his Empress Lover Utrena. He had helped her several times and that way, he had become quite familiar with this type of job.
With Rein\'s help, Xa was finished with her work way before usual. So as they had some free time now, Rein asked her if she would like to join him for a tea party.
Rein also wanted to invite Tasha, Stella and Kagura for the party but they were still a bit busy and Xa herself was not too comfortable with more people seeing her. So he decided to take it slow and steady to give Xa more friends.
...
While Rein was helping Xa, Stella was busy investigating the large library. After knowing that Stella was a very powerful person herself Ludfrek gave her access to even the secret library where only he and his students were allowed to enter.
In exchange, he asked Stella to tell him about any new discoveries she would be able to make there.
There were various types of books in this library. Some of which were so old that even Ludfrek had no idea what was written there. Currently there was only a single type of language spoken throughout the whole world but this was not the case millions of years ago.
At that time, there were several races and each of the races had their unique language. Not only that but people of the same race big from different regions used different languages too. So all in all there were an uncountable numbers of languages used in that era.
For the people of the current era, it was an unbelievable situation. They could not even imagine how problematic it was for people to not understand each other if they went to a different region.
But after the Ultimate Calamity, all the races came together and the world itself developed a new language from them. That was the universal language which everyone was using at the current time.
For that reason, books found in the Ancient Ruins were extremely hard to decipher even for experts of that subject. Only a few mad people who were way too intelligent and had a lot of time in hand were trying their hand on these languages. By the way, Stella was one such madwoman.
She eagerly started to check the ancient books. Even though she was unable to read some of them quickly, most of the books kept here were written with a script that she was familiar with so she was able to read most of them.
She was able to guess that, Ludfrek was probably able to excavate an ancient ruin belonging to one of the northern tribes of the ancient rabbit beastkin race. Most of the information written here was not too important.
They were probably very valuable to historians but as Stella was not a historian, it was not very important information for her. But she still noted everything down to give this information to Ludfrek.
But she did manage to find an extremely important piece of information in one of the books that was written in a different script. Stella did not inform Ludfrek about this information as it was way too valuable. Instead she was going to repay him with something else.
Information about a new and powerful magic spell probably would be a good choice.
As for Tasha, she was actually a little bit disappointed by the training method of the spies of the Okniser family. She had investigated how the ninjas trained and she also had information about the training method of the spies from Xetremelia Empire.
She also knew a bit about the training method of the organisations that were destroyed by her and her party. And she was extremely familiar with the training method that her own former organisation employed.
Among all those methods, the method of the Okniser family fell in the middle. It was not bad by any means but it was too standard and there was nothing special about it. But after thinking about it some more, this actually made sense.
The Okniser family was not primarily a family of spy or assassin. What their spies needed to do most was to be aware of general information about the surrounding nations so that their family would not be caught unaware if anything major happened in those countries.
The family was not enemies with those nations so they do not need confidential information. For a work of only these calibre, highly skilled spies were unnecessary.
It might look like this trip was a waste for Tasha but that was not the case. At first the organisation she was planning to create was planned to only have highly skilled members. But after seeing the spies of the Okniser family, she changed her plans a little bit.
She was still going to create an organisation with highly skilled members in it but she was also going to create a subdivision with a high number of members who did not need to be too skilled, just having the bare minimum ability as a spy was enough.
That way her organisation would be able to handle more works in a short time. So all in all, Tasha could say that this visit was quite useful.
While all Rein, Stella and Tasha were having somewhat of a good time, that was not the case for Lauren. She was busy focusing hard to make the flowers bloom in the Rashaminthiam plants.
At first she was still a bit excited for being able to successfully make a flower bloom but after repeating the same steps 5 times in a row she became bored and made a mistake in the sixth flower. So she took a little break and was forced to focus on her job again.
"I\'m definitely going to make Rein pound me to high heaven tonight. I definitely deserve that." Lauren thought about it and lost her concentration again after thinking about the pleasure.
Just like that the second day in the Okniser family was going on for Rein\'s group.
