There are many bookstores in Lamifa City. Just like the Booksellers' Market near Atherton Square that Siles had visited before, it could be called the most comprehensive bookstore. Professor Calverley had also mentioned that he would go there to purchase and select books.As for some other bookstores, there were comprehensive bookstore chains, as well as specialized, single-category bookstores—such as the map shop Siles had visited in the West City, or Grenfield's antique bookstore.

The club applications delivered to Siles formed a thick stack. Siles roughly counted them; there were about a hundred pages. He needed to select no more than twenty students from them to join his club. He filtered through them one by one, first looking at the names and pulling out the ones he found familiar. This allowed him to fish out Herman Grove, Angela Clayton, Annette Melvin—a student who was always active in answering questions during the specialized elective courses—as well as Kellogg and…

"The Non-existent City." The Paperboy pondered for a moment and asked, "What is that?" "A rumor in the Ashless Lands," the Knight clearly knew of this place as well. "It's said that there is an error on the map of the Ashless Lands, and the location pointed to by that error houses a Non-existent city." "If it's a city, why call it 'Non-existent'?" the Paperboy asked in confusion. "Because on the map, it doesn't exist... it's invisible, ignored by everyone. An unmarked city that should exist, but…

Chapter 126: The Final Power Siles Noel couldn't help but freeze, then frowned slightly. He looked around and saw the wandering street urchins from the West District dispersing and chatting with each other. He indeed didn't see Jimmy. He asked, "Could he have gone to deliver goods and not returned yet?" Anthony shook his head. He was silent for a while, then said, "It's... this afternoon, he told me he had something to take care of. Then he left. He said he would try to be back within two…

Chendo did not leave immediately; instead, he waited until Mary returned. Mary said in a relatively cheerful tone, "It's been resolved. That coat… seemed to have turned into an out-of-control Time Trace. Miles neutralized the coat's activity." Everyone present knew what an "out-of-control Time Trace" meant, but… Chester said in utter disbelief, "How could that be? That was my coat! How could it possibly turn into an out-of-control Time Trace?" Mary shook her head as well. It remained an…

Audrey’s inn was located on the third floor. Walking there from "The Clinking Glasses" took approximately six to seven minutes. However, the internal scale of the entire pavilion far exceeded Siles’s expectations. He had initially compared its layout to a commercial plaza on Earth, but under Chendo’s guidance, they wound through a labyrinth of paths that continuously opened up into hidden pockets of life. This made Siles realize that the House of Hales truly lived up to its reputation. As the…

"I'm not sure if this letter will disappoint you, Professor. Uh... I hope not. "Anyway, I'll sneak the bad news to the very front: I couldn't find the painter you mentioned, nor could I find out his name. "...The bad news is over! Let's move on to some good news. "I did find one or two acquaintances who had seen this painter before at the fine arts academy I attend. It was last summer; they said the painter came to the academy for an apprenticeship and worked as a part-time teacher during the rain…

"Good afternoon," Siles greeted Marchioness Austin. Siles needed to accompany the Marchioness to the banquet venue, so he arrived early at the Austin Estate in the northern suburbs. He wore a crisp suit, draped with a heavy overcoat on the outside. Despite this, his ankles, left uncovered by the coat, were already stiff with cold. He could not help but admire the courage of the ladies wearing long dresses in this weather. The Austin Estate was not particularly crowded at the moment; the overall…

Siles stepped into 18 Hallsville Street at twelve o'clock sharp, and before long, Eric Collens made his appearance. Siles greeted him with a touch of surprise, as his friends typically arrived at Room 52 one after another around one o'clock. Siles usually arrived earlier because he was accustomed to having lunch on the third floor. "Good afternoon, Eric." "Good afternoon, Professor." Eric walked over to Siles's side and said, "I have a reason for coming so early today, though." He pulled an…

The guide arranged by Jerome Lanmere was an ordinary-looking woman who introduced herself as Mary. She had a very cheerful personality and wore her hair in beautiful braided plaits.

She was a caravan guide employed by Jerome Lanmere and knew the roads of the Ashless Lands very well. Since Jerome Lanmere had been busy with other matters recently, and…
