VRMMO: Am I The Strongest Yet?

"She was happy."

"You don't need them for this one. We aren't going to fight anything anyway."

"Is that so?"

Elio did his research on the event that was being held in the library today.

He did not know how big a deal it was for the players, but now that he knew about it, he wasn't surprised after seeing so many players around the library today.

"The event is all about knowledge and talent."

The great library of Moongold did not exist until just over a few decades ago.

The town itself was not that old, it barely had a hundred years of history.

"In the past, the Southwestern lands were home to the [Beasts of Bronze Age]. it was a grassland that extended from the border to the empire's western gateway to the edge of the western continent."

"But a few centuries ago, a [Mythical creature] burned that eternal grassland to ashes."

"It was something unprecedented. History books record it as [Lamentation of crimson flames]."

Not much is known about that incident, but overall, the flames burned over half of the grasslands and the creatures that lived here.

"The rest of the creatures moved down to the south and settled in the area that is now known as [Valley of bronze]."

One of the highest ranking hunting grounds that few players in the entire game dares to approach.

"Well… that must have been some amazing event."

As they traveled to the library's entrance for the registration of the event and stood in the long line, Elio was lost in his own thoughts.

He was chatting with her, replying to her words, but he did not even know that the line was moving forward.

She was behind him so she was pushing him forward whenever the line moved forward.

"Wow…"

"He's so handsome, oh holy lord~!"

"Are they together? …of course they would be together. Haaa."

"These are times when you believe the saying 'world is fair to all' actually makes some sense."

"The Beauty… truly is eternal, hun?"

They were receiving all the attention any well dressed attractive people standing in a line with common players would.

He was pretty, and in that dress, with that hair, there was no way anyone would not be attracted to these people.

Most of them were still new players so they must not be familiar with the actual beauty standards of this world by which, even with that dress and those looks, she would only be called fairly good looking.

There were people in this world who were a sky and sea more attractive and charming than either of them.

She knew they all will see it themselves when they move on to their first city and see the noble society there so, she did not pay much attention to the gazes.

She knew she was pretty and that her boyfriend was a hottie, so she just pushed him forward and enjoyed his absent expression.

He was thinking of the glorious past of this world– but, what he knew and what one could find in the community was not even a tenth of what those high level players who had done countless quests and had been through countless experiences over these past years knew about this world.

She, especially as a special player, knew a lot more about this world than even most of the other players.

Still, just like many other high rankers, even she could never even hope to achieve the kind of understanding of this world as THEY did.

The players did not call them the only true <Honored ones> for nothing.

"The Empire claimed the burned lands of Southwest and after assigning many areas under various regional lords, the crown assigned this particular area to the Viscount family."

"Moongold was established, and then, one day, an old man came to this not so famous town."

Moongold was not as popular as it is right now before the arrival of the players, or a hundred years ago.

But the first time it started changing was when a library unlike any other the town's people had seen in their lifetime appeared in the middle of their town out of nowhere.

"The Librarian, the sole maintainer of this library, was apparently someone that was recently starting to gain popularity in those times."

"Didn't you say he received a trial from some god?"

"No, he must be just a crazy bastard that 'thought' he received a revelation from the heavens."

According to her perspective, the only reason he would ever spend everything he had and build an empty library to fill it with books would be because he had gone senile.

"He was almost like a Saint in the wars. He could have built his own nation if he wanted."

When a human evolves into a higher species, they either become a [Saint] who had received the revelation of the world, or a [High Human] who had surpassed the inherent limitations of the world and gone beyond the mortal capabilities– as myths says.

"But instead, he made this Small library."

No one knew if either of them were true or not, but the players were always looking out for the authenticity of these myths.

The event was announced right when she got to this town right after she came back to the inn after checking up the library.

She did not get to read much, but she knew the library surely was filled with some good things.

Some of those things were so good they deserved to be showcased in a bigger place where people could see it, not in this small town.

Not many people would understand the value some of those items held, but she did. And the fact that they were in this small beginner town instead of some good city just infuriated her.

"The librarian is just an old crazy bastard."

Gods existed in this world, sure. She did believe that. The operating AIs were the same as gods here as well.

But, she did not like how this amazing person– someone who had played a great role in many of the past 'main scenarios' had tied himself down to this damned place.

She did not know what kind of 'trial' he might have received, but it surely was a different kind of 'trial' than what she was following.

"Is he though? Then, why does he look so majestic?"

"Hmm?"

[Ding!]

All the people in the surrounding area of the library including the players and natives received a system notification as soon as Elio said that.

And then, a [Familiar] manifested atop the Great Library of Moongold, the archive of forgotten records– the Treasury of a Hidden Saint.
