Alfea's library wasn't that great compared to the academy's library, but I'm not a reader compared to Oblina and at least our library had more garbage.

The girls accompanied by the monsters go to Alfea's library where they went towards the desk of the head librarian Miss Barbatea.

"Morning girls," greeted Barbatea, "still working on that shield project?"

"You could say that...," said Theo shrugging.

"Actually, we just need some information. For our friends here," she gestures at the Garbage monsters.

The librarian looked down at the Garbage monsters.

Now to explain things, the average human would've jumped and screamed but a magical creature would just greet us monsters and treat us as equals. Unless you got some reservations like the mewmans...

"Information we have a lot but you will have to be specific on what you're looking for. Though the research lector behind those stacks the library will provide you with what you will need. But be careful Bloom went a bit overboard and we had- well rearrange a few things."

"Ok" Theo said about to walk off with the Monsters, but Zaira pulls her back.

"Hold it we have to be sure if what we're looking for isn't part of the rare books behind the golden gate in the library." She looks at the librarian, "Is that alright?"

"It depends on what kind of information are your friends looking for?" replied Miss Barbatea.

Oblina spoke up, "Do you know anything about Demons?"

The librarian stops her brief reading to look at the group in shock and concern, "Why do you want to know about them?"

Zaira explained to Miss Barbatea, "Ickis here made one witty remark and the Gromble is demanding them to write an essay on them for extra credit."

"I'm afraid that's out of the question." Spoke a voice. It was Miss Faragonda, who was entering the library.

That's Faragonda, the fairies' Headmistress of the Alfea school. From what I heard according to the girls; she may look old but she's strong like any magic user.

"That is reserved for the more experienced students and unless the Gromble gave you a permission slip, you cannot read those books. You'll have to rely on the simple, general ones from the human world."

The headmistress ushered the girls and monsters out, "You all can do other research some other time."

"Well, that was a bust," groaned Theo

"Back to the drawing board in the human world."

-------

It took some hours with a bit help to get some books however according to Oblina, it still wasn't enough. And didn't help I couldn't make heads or tail on it. Human information is really limited. The girls seemed excited for the New years batch save for us monsters and Beth.

The group was already heading back to the dormitory as they spoke.

"I don't get this," griped Ickis, "what good are all those names, ranking, and facts? What's this got to do with what we're working on?"

"As much as I agree," spoke Oblina

"This party is gonna be the greatest, we got a million things to do.

"Musa's got some ideas for music, we gotta have some cool decorations."

"Have we left anything out?"

Beth just looking glum, grumbled "yeah, my new year resolution, obtain a new level of fairy."
