The Artificial God

Borrowing Books

That night we came home from the library, and returned to the inn. We came home tired from the day of activity, while Tygruth was not exhausted at all, and before returning from the library he borrowed many books that he currently held in his hands. That damn nerd, he was shameless when he borrowed those books.

An hour ago, Tygruth was picking out books that he would have borrowed to carry, and read at night at the inn. As Tygruth went to the library guard with many books in his hands. The library guard rebuked him for not borrowing a lot of books. A minimum of books allowed to borrow one, and a maximum of three. While Tygruth was carrying around ten thick books that were mounting in his hand.

"Why can't it?" tygruth said scrupulously to the library guard.

"We will wait for you outside" said Elysna who went out first from the library with Boa Boa, and Yuki.

"Well, .. hah. shit looks like they're gonna wait a long time for this" my resigned mutter saw Tygruth who had made up his mind to bring home all the books he was currently holding in his hands. If he had determined with a certain intention, then no one would be able to block his determination like a high cliff. I don't know why it sounds like me.

"But lord reader, you cannot borrow these books. Because this book is very important, which is not allowed to be taken out of the library" said the library keeper who was not happy with Tygruth.

"Why is that? do you want to deter people who are seeking knowledge?" tygruth started this debate.

"Hey Tygruth stop this. Let's just get back, it's late" I whispered in his ear as I felt bad for the library guard.

"If you want to go home, go home. I still have some business to do here" Tygruth said grimly.

"Sorry sir, I will return these books" said the library keeper who touched the books with his hand, and as soon as the book flew away, and returned to the previous bookshelf. But Tygruth would not let that happen, he controlled the air around him to stop the book from flying.

Tygruth looks relaxed, and his face looks like he wants to make a fuss. While I could only keep quiet, and tremble at Tygruth's disrespectful behavior in the land of people. The library keeper was upset and walked out of his workplace and approached Tygruth.

"Hey do you want me to report on the charge of stealing these books?" said the library guard who touched Tygruth's chest with his forefinger that made Tygruth fly. But Tygruth did not let that happen, and made himself set foot back on the ground by pushing the air around to maintain his standing position.

"Who will be put in prison just because someone is looking for knowledge?" tygruth said with a grinning smile.

"You! do you want to make a mess here?" said the library guard who looked angry, and immediately the entire room in the library floated because of the power he had.

"Hey Gernath, with that stupid brain of yours you must think this library lady has the power to fly objects. If you think like that, then you're so stupid. This woman has the power to regulate the gravity of the objects she touches" said Tygruth, who seemed to underestimate me for my stupidity, and of course I was upset by her words.

"Maybe it's because he's already touched every place in this library, or maybe something else he's touched could spread. Like the foot he stepped on this wooden floor, which might have spread like water" Tygruth said easily before thinking.

"Wait!? what do you mean by calling this guy Gernath!?" said the library guard who looked confused, and defused his anger.

"So you don't know about us yet. Although it's a bit annoying because the name Gernath is so famous" said Tygruth who was not willing to introduce who we really are to the woman who guards this library. Then I walked forward gallantly, and told her who I was.

"I am Gernath member of Shan! and this man is our babu" I said, deliberately upsetting Tygruth.

"What you say fuck!" said Tygruth who was annoyed by my words.

"Certainly it!? you guys are the ones from the members of that famous Shan group? the brave heroes who saved this world from the apocalypse!. Kyaa! may I have your signature, Mr. Gernath!" said the library guard woman who shouted while running towards me, and asked for her signature on me.

"Of course I can.. But where do I have to sign?" I said confused because he only gave me markers, and no paper to sign.

"In... here." said the woman who took off her clothes a little, and showed her shoulder to me to have her autograph on her body. Of course I was very surprised, and a little tempted, because she had a cute face as well.

"Well, don't move." said I, who was signing his shoulder with the marker he gave me.

Then she tidied her clothes back up, and lowered her head before me, "Thank you! you are a hero to me. Your footage was already widespread during that fight. You are truly amazing, my hero." said the woman guarding the library by changing her voice, and her cute behavior at the end of her words. Then she went back to her workplace, and smiled sweetly at me, and I just stared at her dumbly.

Until finally a punch hit my head, and made the atmosphere become annoying, "Be aware of stupid.you already have Elysna" said Tygruth who hit me in the face with his hand. Then he immediately went out of the library with the books in his hands.

"What's!? hey what about those books!? the book cannot be..."

"...That woman has allowed me to carry as many books as I want. Huh it was not in vain we became popular" said Tygruth who walked casually by carrying many books with shameless. Well, that's kind of an interesting thing about being in the library with a shitty guy.
