Chapter 384: Life In The Past Three Years...

“Um, it’s really no charm at all. It’s just three steps. Make sure you care about them, and that can be done by remembering their faces, their names and their most likely favourite books. Second, make sure when they come the next day, their books are already prepared for them in your desk instead of simply asking them to go and pick it up in some place. Then lastly, always say we wish you a happy time and hope you come back tomorrow. That’s it.

Simple, right?” Zeras asked with a smirk as the others all rolled their eyes at him.

“Yeah, it really is simple, having to remember the name of more than a group of fifty, knowing their favourite books too and even remembering their faces. That’s really easy…” Minnie said as he pursed his lips.

“Well, that’s the only way to win…” Zeras winked at him causing a vein of anger to pop on the boy’s forehead but he didn’t give it a second look as he carried the book and began arranging them on the shelves.

10 Minutes later…

“OK, we’re done for the day. Let’s get going…” Aram, a man of around thirty and also the oldest person among them.

“Ok. Brother Aram…” They all replied as they all moved out of the gigantic revolving glass.

Once they all moved outside, Aram brought out a device which looked like a remote before clicking on the big red button on the remote.

BEEP

Instantly, a circular barrier appeared all around the library tightly securing the library.

Done with that, Mr. Aram turned towards the four, his eyes scanning each of them in scrutiny before they finally came to rest on Zeras.

“I’ll be putting the key to your possession, Zeras. Keep it safe…” The man said as Zeras collected the key.

“You can rest assured, Brother Aram…” Zeras replied with a respectful nod.

“Good.” The man replied before moving onto an SUV that was parked in the nearby garage. Soon the engine rumbled to life and the car disappeared into the distance.

“And he gave him the key, again!” Minie roared out in protest as Zeras shook his head.

“You know, perhaps if you come an hour before the regular time of the library opening, he’ll give it to you too,” Zeras said with a smug grin and moved to the last remaining White SUV packed in the garage.

Resting his hand on the door, the car made a beep sound and instantly he opened up the driver’s seat.

“You guys coming or what?” Zeras said as he entered into the driver seat and all the remaining doors on the car immediately opened up.

“Woooo…” The fat Mi Hong screamed out gleefully as he entered the car’s back seat followed by Minnie, while Selena entered the front seat close to the driver’s seat where Zeras sat.

“ZIP”

Slowly the car’s door zipped open once again as Zeras immediately started the car and drove out of the garage, quickly merging into the hundreds of cars present on the highway.

1 hour later…

The front door of the SUV parked in front of a gigantic skyscraper opened up as Selena exited the car, leaving only Zeras within.

“Thank you, Zeras…” She said with a grateful smile as he gave a nod.

“You’re welcome…”

“So, um, see you again in the library tomorrow.” She stuttered to say as Zeras smiled.

“Goodnight Selena…” were his last words before slowly driving the car and entering back into the traffic.

Alone in front of the gigantic skyscraper was the pretty Selena who looked at the car until it disappeared into the distance.

“Goodnight, Zeras…” She whispered before turning back and walking into the skyscraper…

1 hour later…

The gate to the bungalow opened up automatically as the white SUV zoomed into it and parked up in the small open space.

BEEP

BEEP

BEEP

The car made three beeping sounds continuously as the driver’s seat door opened up and Zeras stepped out of the car, keeping the keys in his pocket.

Entering the golden door at the front of the house, he arrived in pitch-black darkness.

“Hey Apex, turn on the living room…” Zeras said into the air and in the next second, the AI Voice rang out…

“Alright, turning on 12 panes…”

Instantly, the entire area was suddenly filled with bright light as the darkness was reluctantly chased away…

The living room was finally revealed, a medium-sized room, all tiled with a pure white colour with splashed dark except for the ceiling which had a large chandelier illuminating the living room with a mixture of golden and white light.

At his front was the large TV set that occupied half the entire wall and a sofa arranged in an opened rectangular format.

“Home sweet home,” Zeras whispered looking at his body that had housed him for the last three years.

It was like the EIA could read his mind and provide him with just what he wanted. A little above average looking bungalow building for only him, equipped with three bedrooms and with well-designed and all-functional rooms.

He also got his job as a librarian at the opposite end of the highway and at one of the average-ranked libraries in Celestria Valley.

He had lived his last three years in this place and was even able to get himself a car from his salary, fed, clothed and lived life comfortably as a mortal.

His life alone was far from lonely as he enjoyed the company of the five people he worked with and even more the people who came to read in the library.

Every day, they all went back home together and even when he bought a car, Zeras still picked the habit and they still all went back together. It was like a small family between the four of them.

Dropping the small backpack on his shoulders onto the sofa and headed to the place which according to his house’s AI, Apex, had become the most visited place after his bedroom.

The Kitchen…
