Unlasting || Kim Taehyung

27: Information

"Where do I even begin?" You gaze up at the large walls of books, shelves upon shelves of books aligning the room, and you have to spin around to get a full glimpse of everything around you.

"Well, there are a lot of books talking about demons and the demon world in this section." He points over to a large shelf. "But, is there something in particular you're trying to find?"

That's when you remember you and Taehyung's conversation, and you swiftly spin around to the stack of books that had floated over to the nearby desk in the center of the room. You grab the book Taehyung showed you and bring it over to Yeonjun.

"Do you have to have the volumes that follow this book?"

Yeonjun takes it in his hands and observes it carefully, and you watch as he reads the title, and his eyes narrow as he seems to realize something.

"Uh, yeah I think we have it, just gotta find it in here... somewhere." He twists his head in all different directions to look at each shelf.

"Can't you just like, make it appear?" You wave your arms around for emphasis, making him laugh.

"I can only teleport things if I know where they are and where they are going. Sadly, I don't know where this book is exactly." You make an 'o' shape with your mouth.

"Then, I guess we better get looking." You walk over to the large self and start to scan through the titles.

It doesn't take long for your hopes to wear down, you've been searching for hours and haven't been able to find anything.

"Are you sure it's even in here?" You plop down on a nearby seat.

"I know I've seen it... But honestly, it might be anywhere." He takes a seat in the adjacent chair, and you sigh. "What are you even trying to find out?" he asks, and you sit up.

"Taehyung is trying to find out more about Soyoung's origins. He thinks he might be able to find a way to kill her, or send her back to the demon world," you explain, and Yeonjun straightens up.

"Well, you know Soobin was the one who helped send her back all those years ago."

"Why didn't you mention that earlier?!" You jolt up.

"Well, I didn't know that's what you're trying to figure out. But even though you know now, it's a powerful spell that requires her to be trapped in place. It takes a lot of energy... it almost killed him last time." He leans his elbows on his knees and you sit back down.

"Well, that's better than nothing I guess..." you mumble, and a brief silence passes through the room as you try to think.

"Y/n..."

"Hmm?"

"I've been... keeping something from you..."

"What?" You furrow your brows, and he glances around uncomfortably.

"The only reason I haven't told you was because I was told not to, but I think you should know." You lean forwards and watch him shift in place.

"What is it?"

"I've read the book you're looking for, and I know a decent amount of Soyoung's past."

"What?! Yeonjun, why didn't you tell me? This information could help the guys! We could stop Soyou-"

"I just couldn't," he cuts you off. "For reasons I can't tell you." You remain silent. "Look, I can tell you as much as I'm able, but if anyone asks, you tell them you figured this out in a book. You can't tell anyone, not even Taehyung. Okay?"
