My Triling System

Chapter 11: Chapter Eleven: Exp points

Kevin searched around the first floor of the library and picked up as many books as he could about magic. Most of them listing and describing the most common magics. Dan wasn’t too bothered and decided to just select a random fiction book to read.

He searched for books that has a mutual connection with the system or Triling thing he had, but unluckily so far, he found none.

The two sat at their tables while Kevin started to flicker away in the library. After skimming through several books he had been unable to find a single one that sounded like his system, nor did he find anything talking about Triling.

Dan had kept a close eye on Kevin and had noticed the type of books he had been picking out.

“What’s with all the books, are you looking for something in particular?”

Kevin thought about it for a while before giving Dan an answer. He didn’t know what to answer but after Dan saw that Kevin was silent, he decided to put up another question.

“Well is there anything specific you’re looking for?”

.....

Kevin sighed before answering him. “Not really. Although I’ve found something very interesting in one of those books. Have you ever heard of someone who possesses an elf, fairy and human characteristics? Like being someone who is of those three races?”

Dan suddenly started to laugh out loud.

“What are you, crazy? I’ve never heard of something like that. How would someone be an elf and still be a fairy. Sure some people can be half elf, half human but being an elf, fairy and human is really crazy to say. Are you sure, you have not accidentally grabbed a fantasy book about fake superheroes and immortals? Or you came across a story written by those stupid, dullard humans.”

Kevin flinched as he heard Dan call humans dullards. ‘ you’re probably not an human, so you must think they are dullards for not having Magics like elves and fairies ‘

Although Kevin felt a little embarrassed by Dan’s reaction towards the question he asked. Yet, he understood this reaction was pretty normal. Would he have reacted any differently if he tells him that he used to be an human but was now someone having the characteristics of all three races.

Kevin continued to look around the library to see if there was anything else he could find. Eventually, he had gone through every single one of the books detailing about races and magics. Kevin then considered trying his chances by going a floor above where there were some Pure mage and spell Wizard students.

‘ Maybe there’s something up there, but I can’t imagine what the academy would do to me for breaking the rules, especially on the first day. I can’t be on a blacklist after finally getting out of my father’s clutches in the forest.’ Kevin thought.

As Kevin continued to walk around the library, he considered what Dan had said. Perhaps he really should venture into the fiction section and see if he might be lucky. What’s the worst thing that could happen?

A book titled ‘The Truth about the three race man’ immediately caught his interest. Kevin took out the book and gave it a quick look.

Kevin couldn’t help but sate his curiosity, so he started to read the book. After reading and skimming through the book, Kevin found most of it to be useless. A lot of the things that a three race person did, didn’t relate to him at all.

The only thing he could relate to, was having the ears of an elf and also he felt like there is still a bit of human in him. Eventually, Kevin decided to close the book and call it a day. It didn’t seem like he was going to find anything from the first floor of the library.

As soon as Kevin closed the book though, he heard a familiar sound and the pop up screen appeared at the corner of his eyes again.

“What?” Kevin blurted out.

Kevin starred long and hard at the message and reread it multiple times.

‘It can’t be! Why did I get Exp all of a sudden?’
