Chapter 737: So... Who Are You Exactly?

~6 min read 1,195 words

After Lan Qingyou killed the conversation with a single sentence.

The guys who were just discussing desperately suddenly fell silent, and all turned their heads to look at her.

"You see, aren't I looking for Fortune to divine right and wrong right now."

Although Lan Qingyou was looking at the crowd, her finger was pointing at Esmeralda.

"This guy could already be considered a spy or a mole, right?"

"Bastards. Tower, hurry up and tell us which guys they are, I'm going to thoroughly annihilate them."

Hearing that Lan Qingyou already knew who it was, Olf gritted his teeth and cracked his knuckles.

After all, their Titan race also suffered heavy losses because of the colossal beast riot.

It was said that over eighty thousand clan members alone had died, along with nearly five hundred thousand reserves of class-holders preparing for evolution.

Actually, it wasn't just him; the rest of the clan leaders were the same.

This was mainly because the psychological shadow and losses the colossal beast riot brought them were simply too great.

"Actually, everyone has heard of this group too."

"Who?"

The crowd stared at Lan Qingyou, their concentration highly focused.

"The Library."

Hmm!!

The Library?

Could they, a group of leaders, possibly not know what The Library was?

It was a group of people who initially started by copying books.

After all, in the beginning, very few people could obtain knowledge books, but this knowledge was absolutely useful.

So the people who made a living off this were born.

Later, after gaining a certain amount of capital, they directly evolved from copying books into a combination of a printing factory and a publishing house.

Currently on the continent, the books circulating among the transmigrators, whether they were knowledge books of the magic world, or later travelogues, novels, and even comics, were basically all published by the organization known as [The Library].

In this other world where entertainment was inherently scarce, this could be said to have immense commercial potential.

But because there was no barrier to entry for this kind of thing.

A large number of such publishing houses appeared later.

Leading to a decline in sales.

However, because they were the pioneers, coupled with years of word-of-mouth reputation.

No matter what happened outside, they had always stood tall and unyielding.

To put it simply, although sales had declined somewhat, they were still the leading enterprise in the publishing industry.

But they never imagined that such a group of book-makers would actually be involved in the work of the Will of the World.

One had to know that because the other party published knowledge books, quite a few people present had interacted with their people.

No matter how you looked at them, that group of people didn't seem like they could be involved in this.

They even less expected Lan Qingyou to guess that they were the 'traitors'.

Of course, this was just Lan Qingyou's guess.

Whether it was true or not still required waiting for Esmeralda's divination to find out.

Thus, everyone looked towards Esmeralda again.

"Correct."

"..."

Under everyone's gaze, Esmeralda nodded without hesitation, directly confirming Lan Qingyou's guess.

It really was them...

Everyone was somewhat mentally prepared for Esmeralda's nod, so they merely complained internally.

They didn't appear as agitated as before.

But what comes next should be the main event...

Thinking this, they looked at Lan Qingyou again.

After all, this guy, the Tower Witch, still hadn't explained why she guessed it was The Library.

One had to know that as a scholar, explaining one's own research was an extremely satisfying thing.

And the species known as witches happened to be the guys who liked doing this the most.

So they were waiting for Lan Qingyou's explanation.

"There's a person you should all know."

"Who?"

"The supervisor of The Library's Sociology Department, Katie Meseta."

Katie Meseta?

...

The crowd was speechless for a while.

Of course they knew her, how could they not?

This person could be said to be an external window for The Library. Whenever it came to external communications, she was basically the one who showed up.

So anyone present who had ever interacted with The Library knew her.

Some people even had her contact information.

"So this is also related to Katie?"

David, who had bought books at The Library before, frowned slightly and muttered.

He met Katie before evolution items appeared.

At that time, for the sake of research, he had interacted with quite a few people, and it was after that he learned of the existence of the book copyists.

And then he came into contact with Katie.

At that time, the organization called The Library didn't exist yet, and Katie was just borrowing, copying, and selling books.

So compared to others, he was someone who knew Katie relatively early.

He never expected Katie to actually be involved in this.

Even when Lan Qingyou mentioned The Library, he didn't think in his heart that Katie would know about this kind of thing.

After all, after several years of contact, he more or less understood her a bit.

But...

Now it seemed he was dead wrong.

After all, being named by the Tower Witch, it definitely wasn't as simple as just being involved.

"Magician, isn't that nonsense? If the entire Library is related to the Will of the World, then Katie, the supervisor of the Sociology Department, definitely can't escape either."

Vivian rolled her eyes at David.

She only started interacting with Katie when the Illusion Mist Vampire race was established.

So she didn't know this person very well.

But looking at David's reaction, she knew the other party should be very familiar.

However, no matter how familiar he was, it had nothing to do with her now.

If this Katie really played an important role in this, then killing her was inevitable.

Who told the other party to cause her to lose so much?

Setting everything else aside, just the death of a Duke was enough to severely damage the entire vampire race.

"The first time I saw this Katie was at the banquet before the auction. To be honest, the moment I laid eyes on her, I felt there was a problem with this person, but I couldn't put my finger on what the problem was."

"Because we didn't have much contact later on, I didn't pay it any mind."

"But recalling it carefully today, I was surprised to find that I actually failed to see the other party's unusualness back then."

"This is simply inexcusable."

Lan Qingyou on this side naturally didn't know what each of them was thinking in their hearts.

After slightly observing everyone's reactions, she spoke as if reminiscing.

Towards the end, she even sighed and wrung her wrists.

As if she had made a massive mistake.

Seeing this, the manor members on the side rolled their eyes.

Even if you want to act, this isn't how you do it.

As friends for so many years, who here doesn't know who?

However, just as everyone was complaining internally, Lan Qingyou's next sentence made everyone's jaws drop.

"So... Esmeralda, no... Wheel of Fortune, who... exactly are you?"
