Chapter 149 - Comparing Strength

"Don't worry Jun, I got this," said Julius with a smile as he had a perfect plan in mind.

"Sorry ma'am, would it be possible for you to just bring all of the scrolls out right now? I believe that I might be able to get this done in quite a short amount of time," said Julius with a confident face.

"Uh… sure if you want. I don't know why you would need them all right now but you're the boss so okay," said the librarian before instructing her employees to start getting every secret art inside the building ready and place them in a triangular stack. Once they all finished the task that they had been assigned, the employees took a few steps back as they watched Julius work his magic.

Julius began to move towards the stack before taking the top piece off the pile and placing it on the floor and spreading it wide. After doing this, Julius returned towards the large stack which was much taller than him, once he returned to it, he took a large leap in the air and took the top 2 scrolls there and got back down on the ground with ease. Once on the library's floor, Julius walked towards the area which he had laid the first scroll. Once he had arrived there, Julius placed one of the two scrolls in his hand on top of the already spread our scroll and spread out one of the two new ones on top of it, as such, created a 2 layered spread out secret art scroll on the ground. After doing this, Julius laid the second one of the two secret art scrolls he had grabbed onto the ground and spread it out, in turn creating 3 lays.

As time went on, Julius continued to take two of the scrolls at a time before bringing them to the spread out stack of secret art scrolls and placing them on them, as such adding to the ever growing layer.

After what seemed like hours, Julius was finally completed his task as he looked up at the large stack of spread out scrolls. There were so many stacked papers that it even looked to be comparable to the large book shelves in the library of the limitless.

"What do you want to do this this now? Did you just do this to waste our time?" the librarian asked as he had absolutely no idea what was about to take place before his eyes in a few moments.

"I don't know if this will work due to the ways the scrolls are staked by there's no shame in trying," Julius thought to himself before leaped into the air until his right forearm was at a higher elevation level than the highest spread out secret art scrolls before placing his forearm on it.

"If this works, I should theoretically be able to gain every single one of the secret arts in one try. However that also would mean-" Julius began to himself before passing out as his forearm made contact with the secret art scroll on the top of the stack. Once this had happened, Julius fell from that high all the way to the ground only to be caught by Jun who moved in at the last second as everyone else was baffled at what Julius had just done.

"Jun you don't think that he would be stupid enough to think that by stacking multiple secret art scrolls, he'll be able to consume them at once right? I mean is that even possible? That's absurd and unheard of! If that were possible, he just sealed his own fate," said the librarian in a panicking tone.

"Don't worry about him. He'll be fine. I know than he will make it out of there alive, after all, he is my student," said Jun with a confident smirk even though he was the most worried out of everyone there. Even for Julius who was a known genius and prodigy, this many secret art scrolls at the same time is just insane. It was a suicide mission.

…

As for Julius, he was once again awoken back at the familiar place which he had been to so many times. The empty void. The place which he along with the glowing white figure spent their time talking. The same place which he battled the shadow monster figure to regain the sanity of Dae and Knight. The same place which he helped awaken Spike, Rosie, Liam and Steph. He had so many memories there however, that place would now turn into a war zone.

Hundreds of every animal from every tier was present. That included the many dozens of dragons along with even some shadow monster figures. There were plenty of monkeys and tigers as well. Every single one of them looked at Julius with the intent to kill.

"Look what you've done now. Do you really think that your strength alone would be enough to defeat all of them? All these majestic beasts who are on one side and you on the other. Do you have a death wish or something? I guess I'll have to step in," said the glowing white figure as it appeared in front of Julius as it prepared to take on every single one of the beasts on its own.

"No, I know I won't be able to take them all out on my own. However neither can you. Even for someone like you, this match up is too difficult," Julius replied.

"So you think I'm weak huh?" the glowing figure asked in an irritated tone.

"No that's not what I meant at all. Think about it. For example let's say that you're a 25 year old strong man. And think of those beasts as nothing more than 10 year old kids. Sure you'll be able to take on a couple dozen and maybe even hundreds of them.. However if there were these number of 10 year olds and you had to fight them all, you would eventually be overpowered by the sheer number of them that were there," Julius explained.
