Library.
In front of the wide-open gates, there was no sign of the Gatekeeper, and Lu Li could see the rows of bookshelves inside the library and the students reading at the brown birch wood long tables.
The library's tranquility and the scent of books were pleasing to the mood. Lu Li glanced around, but did not see any stairs leading to the upper level apart from the corners where the bookshelves were placed.
Lu Li disturbed a junior student who was reading "History of the Giant Tree Academy," and he pointed to the stairs crowded by bookshelves, informing Lu Li that the second level was below.
It was the area for middle-grade students.
"Can junior students enter?"
"Uh... there's no rule prohibiting it, but sometimes the Gatekeeper blocks us, and knowledge from below is still too early for us..." the student told Lu Li everything he knew.
Approaching the bookshelves towards the second level, Lu Li saw the Gatekeeper, the Gaunt Doorman from last night's guard duty.
