"All right, tell me what you want." Angele became curious upon witnessing the girl's reaction. While he was a noble before he became a wizard apprentice, the girls in the castle back then wouldn't simply blush just from seeing his face. Now, however, Angele had become a god in the eyes of mortals and he reveled in this feeling.

Things, on one hand, might have been much easier had he changed his appearance.

On the other, the girl's reaction was refreshing to him. As a wizard, Angele hadn't had many opportunities to enjoy his life amid such a dangerous world.

Angele's mood was lifted for that reason.

"Just say it. If it's not too much trouble for me, I'll solve the problem," Angele encouraged.

Pursing her lips, Sari finally spoke out.

"Master… I have a younger brother who enjoys reading, a lot. And he loves taking care of books. I hear there are many books in your study, so I want to recommend him to you. I'm sure he can take good care of your books."

"Taking care of books, huh?" Angele's brow raised up. "How old is your brother?"

"Thirteen. He worked in the lord's mansion for several years. His main job was maintaining the lord's books," Sari hurriedly replied.

"Sure, ask him to come here. I will hire him, if he can get the job done." Angele nodded.

"Thank you, thank you, master… thank you." Sari bowed several times before she was dragged out of the room by Raylene, who knew Angele dislikes noisy places. Sari's voice was a bit too loud, after all. Both of them hurriedly bowed to Angele and left since Raylene did not want to anger her master.

Angele smiled, not in the least bit concerned. It was better if the person taking care of his books was a bibliophile. At least, there would be no mold in his books.

Even though the information recorded on the books had already been stored in his biochip, he still found it a pleasure reading the physical copy of books whenever he had time.

******************************

Three days later, in the morning.

Inside the study, Angele was gingerly taking a sip from his cup of hot milk and looking at the two teenagers who were quietly standing before him.

The one on the left was Sari, who was in a black-and-white maid uniform. The one on the right was a red-haired boy.

The boy, wearing an old, gray linen clothing, looked thin and weakly. But even though his face looked pale, his eyes seemed bright. He was staring at Angele hopefully.

"Master, my name is Saya. Please trust me, I shall take good care of your books!"

He leaned over to bow. Sari did the same, too.

The brother and sister duo stood there unmoving.

Angele gazed at them curiously.

"Saya, right? Straighten your back. I have several questions for you."

"Yes! Master!" Both Saya and Sari answered loudly and straightened their backs.

"Too loud. Lower your voice whenever you're answering my question." Angele waved his hand.

"As you wish, master," Saya softly replied, nodding.

"First question. Where are your parents?"

Saya and Sari instantly became downcast upon hearing the question.
