Re:Immortal

Chapter 67

"I see, so if I'm understanding things correctly, there are various teleportation points to Heaven, but most if not all of these are sealed, and our best bet would be to break the formation of the weakest portal without alerting the 'Hive' minions right?" Asked Omis as he looked at Silas.

"Pretty much." Answered Silas with a shrug of his shoulders.

"Oh~! You forgot the part where we need a master of arrays to break the formation!" Added Leyla with a sweet smile.

"Ah, yes. That as well..." Sighed Omis.

"Uncle Silas, aren't you considered one of the best Array formations masters?" She asked with an innocent look on her face as she looked at Silas.

"*Yawn* Uh? No, no, no. Silly child stop spouting nonsense, me an array master? Ridiculous, haha!" He awkwardly laughed before catching a glance at Omis who was staring at him with sparkling eyes.

"U-Uh, why are you looking at me like that?" He nervously asked.

"Master Silas, I did not know your esteemed self was an Array master! Why did you not tell me that earlier?" Asked Omis with a gullible smile that sent shivers down Silas's spine.

"N-no! No, no, no! I'm no master I merely know a couple of things, nothing worth mentioning at all." He frantically waved his hands in dismissal.

Turning his head to Leyla, he spoke.

"Come on you silly child, help your uncle clear this misunderstanding! Tell him I'm no master." He said while nervously glancing at Omis's scary smile.

"Really uncle? But I remember mom and dad praising you as the best! If you claimed to be the second-best who would dare say they are the first!" Proudly proclaimed Leyla with an expression full of sincerity.

Hearing that caused Silas to almost cough out blood as he thought.

'This damnable kid! She's enjoying this!' He thought as he looked at Leyla's innocent expression that seemed to hide a tinge of a smile behind it.

"Master Silas, I'll be sure to compensate you handsomely for your troubles! Please do not worry, you would only need to help us open the portal that's it!" Said Omis as he moved his chair closer to Silas who had sweat running down his brows.

Suddenly standing up, Silas pushed his hands on the table as he spoke.

"I'm sorry, but I can't help you with that. You came looking for information and information I provided, any more than that is out of my hand. Please see yourself out I still have a few books I need to read through." He said as he turned around to leave.

*Bang*

The sound of Addi's first hitting the table caused Silas to stop as he turned to glance back at him, Omis and Leyla were both confused as they looked at Addi as well.

"I remember you! Silas the librarian! I knew something was wrong the moment I saw you!" Grinned Addi.

"Oh?" Said Silas as he squinted his eyes.

"You sneaky bastard! I knew something was fishy the moment you started spewing bullshit about you being a newly Ascendant as soon as we all 'Awakened'."

"I don't know what you are talking about." Coldly said, Silas as he glared at Addi.

"Addi? You know him?" Asked Omis confused.

"Know him? Of course, I know him! By the abyss, you should know him!" Said Addi as he stood up and pointed at Silas.

"Silas the librarian, vice master of 'The Keepers of Knowledge' and a coward and traitor to all celestials!" Growled Addi as his hair slowly started floating behind him.

"You dare? You know nothing about me!" Snapped Silas as he slowly started rotating his cultivation base causing his hair, in turn, to whip about wildly behind his back.

"God damn it I said no fucking fighting!"

*BANG*

Shouted Omis as his palm fell on the table breaking it to pieces, the duo withdrew their auras yet continued to glare at each other.

"I know nothing? Your sect remained isolated from the rest until the very end! You refused to lend a helping hand in the war, Hell, none of your damn members dared show their faces even! Bet they all ran away with their tails behind their legs, *Pah* fucking cowards." Spat Addi as he continued glaring at Silas.

"You ever besmirch my guild's name again, and i'll be sure to have your head for it Old Devil!" Growled Silas with a dangerous glint on his eyes.

"Oh, I'd love to see you try you fucking coward!" Mocked Addi.

"That's enough! Both of you!" Interrupted Omis before he turned to look at Addi.

"I don't care what happened in the past, what I do care about is getting past that array, and for that-" Saying that Omis turned his head to Silas before continuing.

"I need your help, If you truly are of 'The Keepers of knowledge' guild than I'm sure you know the value of this." Said Omis before pulling two books out of his spatial inventory and throwing them to Silas who unconsciously caught them.

Glancing at the two books Silas's eyes widened in shock as his jaw hang loose. "

T-This! H-How do you have this?!" He hoarsely asked as he turned to look at Omis.

"Doesn't matter how I got them, but it looks like you are trying to recreate another 'Keepers of Knowledge' in here." Said Omis as he waved his hands around the room before continuing.

"And for that, I'm sure that you need those books." He added.

"Follow me, and i'll help you rebuild it. I'll help you fill-up the library and restore it to its former glory." Said Omis as he extended his hand to Silas.

"*Gulp* Y-You mean you have more?!" Dryly asked Silas his tired expression long gone in its stead was one full of craze as he glanced at Omis.

"Have more? I'm the Immortal Mentor! What do you think?" Said Omis with a grin.

Hearing that, Silas's eyes started to glow. As he looked at Omis the blurry figure of a woman with a similar grin seemed to overlap with Omis causing Silas to shake his head before grabbing his hand.

'He really does remind me of you, sect master!' Thought Silas.

Shaking his hand, Omis's grin widened as he laughed.

"Great to have you onboard master Silas!" Hearing that Leyla's expression seemed to beam with happiness as she started clapping while Addi simply harrumphed and turned away.
