I Know the Secret to Surpass Level 100

Chapter 282: Almost Finished Hatching

Jameson left the room not long after. He passed through the wall like it was nothing, making Elliot gulp. Jameson could easily walk in on him if he ever changes clothes or when he tweak the Twilight Cocoon or some other things in his Console.

Shaking the awkward thoughts away, Elliot crawled to the corner where the Twilight Cocoon was. He pulled the covers and saw the red cocoon on the stick.

With the Twilight Brew in his hand, Elliot let the cocoon absorb the liquid. The Twilight Brew was accepted easily and it burst into the light as it absorbs like it usually does

"Now I have five," Elliot whispered to himself. He placed the Adamant Jade in his Invetory and just as expected, the Manual dumped it.

'Quest [ Adamant Jade ] completed.'

He sat on the floor and analyzed the information he got with a sigh.

First the Adamant Jade had an almost infinite amount of Arcane Points. If he could get his hands on another one, he was sure he could take on both the Oracion Alma and the Fallen Angels. They were both after the Twilight Bless, if Elliot could hold them back, they would win.

He was going to ask Jameson if he could find another one of it. He was also going to ask Isabelle the next day since she told him she and Kian were going to watch their fight.

The other information Elliot got was about the Book of the Beginning. It was a collection of texts from sears. They have been watching over the world since the beginning and they were taking down both history and the future on the three books.

With these information, Elliot could move on with his goal. He got two more Twilight Brew from the time he spent with Jameson. He was sure that the Manual would give him the other quests so he could finish the task.

And just like it was on cue, his Console rang and three notifications sprung up.

'New quest [ The Book of the Middle ] available.'

'New quest [ The Creator's Heart II ] available.'

'New quest [ Chairs to Heaven ] available.'

Elliot was glad that the Manual gave him three quests. This meant that his journey of hatching the cocoon was getting closer to an end.

He can finally finish the quest and watch what will happen to the Twilight Cocoon after it hatches. The worst case scenario was for it to explode or to cause a large scale devastation.

But there was a slight hint of hope in Elliot's mind that the cocoon would bring him good luck. He was confident that it contains something that would help them in the future.

Reading the first quest, Elliot sighed. It was one of the risky quests the Manual likes him to do.

[ The Book of the Middle 

Reward: Twilight Brew

// The Book of the Middle has been in the hands of the exquisite gem collector. Request to see the book. ]

Moving on to the second quest, Elliot was relived for it. It wasn't going to be as difficult as the others, but it will be very taxing for him.

[ The Creator's Heart II

Reward: Twilight Brew

// Collect items to dump in exhange for the Creator's Heart I. Absorb the Heart and get stronger. ]

[ Chairs to Heaven

Reward: Twilight Brew

// The Angels sat on chairs when they were in their Realm. A chair had found its way to an antique collector's hands. ]

For the third one, Elliot was going to meet Madam Locraine. There was no other antique collector that the Manual would like for him to meet.

He was assuming that the woman had information for him. This was the pattern for the Manual. Whenever it wants Elliot to meet up with a person he already encountered, it meant that that person has information for him.

There was an irk as to what the information could be. He was curious, and he was going to feed his curiosity.

Elliot watched over the dark skies. He was calculating if he could still get a few hours of sleep when he goes to bed now. Looking at the silent street and the starry skies, Elliot went over to his bed and closed his eyes.

There was a satisfying smirk playing in his lips. "Tonight was a good night."

The morning came and the first thing Elliot heard was a scream. He immediately got up and ran downstairs, taking his sword with him and rushing even when he was only in his pajamas.

"What is he doing?!" Connor gasped. When Elliot got downstairs, the first thing he noticed was the group of men on one corner of the lobby. They were looking at something on the other side of the lobby, and when Elliot turned to see what it was, he saw Jameson with half his body through a wall.

"What are you doing?" Elliot gasped and ran to the man. His friends watched him in grimace as he offered his hand to which Jameson took. "What were you doing with the wall?"

"I was passing through, but I ran out of mana. I slept through the night and just woke up," Jameson replied. "My family has the infamous curse of having very little amount of mana reserve in our blood."

"How long have you been come here," Elliot pulled him out after Jameson told him that he now has enough mana to pass through. The others behind them weren't so impressed by what just happened, and to think that Elliot was calm when it was happening.

"Elliot, you knew about this?" Lance asked. 

Elliot shrugged and let Jameson sit on the chair in one of the kitchen tables. Jameson looked tired as he sat on the chair, letting Elliot give him a glass of water. He placed his head on the table and closed his eyes, "I'll take a nap."

"How long has it been since he was stuck on the wall?" Elliot turned to his friends.

They were still looking at him, faces filled with looks of confusion. Ed asked, "You knew about his ability?"

"Yeah," Elliot replied. "He went to my room last night and we exchanged information."

"He went to your" Connor stopped himself. "Elliot, he could have killed us all in our sleep. Why did you trust him that easily?"

"He has information I needed," Elliot replied. "And if he actually wanted to kill us, don't you think he would've did it by now?"

When the others were silent, Elliot nodded knowingly. "I'm too trusting, I know, but I know when to put my trust and where to hide it. Prince Jameson pulls my trust to him, and I'm willing to give it to him."

"Fine," Lance sighed. "But if he turns out to be an enemy, Elliot, I will shave your head."

"Deal," Elliot said confidently. "But I need to talk to you guys about someone else. Someone we might not think we know fully."
