The first stop the blonde did during the day was a library...It wasn't that impressive, to be ho, but then again...She was paring it to the almost cathedral building that was one-half of her [Soulspace] so maybe it wasn't fair to this public library.

  At least the workers here were nice "Right this way." Said the youionist that had received her while pointiowards one of the booths for her to occupy.

  "If you need something please do use the internal lio call, someone will e and help you." Said the receptionist before leaving her in the booth.

  This small cubicle had everything she would need, from access to an index of books to an i e and even a small fridge where she could take drinks and food(And they would be paid by her bracelet it seems).

  She had gotten the VIP treatment when they sed her bracelet, so she was w how much clearance had her father stuck her with...He seemed to want to shield her from the more...Bad stuff of the real world during her upbringing. But as soon as she went into the real world...

  His meddling stopped. She wasn't turned down at the entrand a quick query on the puter here showed the same articles Rossie had shown before.

  Including [The Pupetmaster] an S-Css Tier [Vilin Threat]. A mage that dealt with [Mind Magid was famous for using that kind of spells to get random civilians as hand a. No one knew his real identity. And he was on his way to being a serious trouble.

  At least till he encroached into the tial mass where [Avalon] resided. She found a siicle, a video actually, of her Mother addressing the [Vilin] she just warned him against stepping a single foot into her territory. And nothing else.

  It was kind of funny actually, since she didn't raise a threat or her voice, but it worked. The [Vilin] stopped growing his momentum and now he is only active in a try called [Zaveria]?

  That was something she was looking into, it looked as if [The Twelve] were a more loose anization than she was led to believe. The informatio from it was that they mostly worked indepely of each other and in different parts of the world.

  [Zaveria] For example, this held almost a sixth of the tial mass of the p where she lived, which apparently held a name her parents or the schooling system didn't deem important.

  Zaanam, granted...That was one heck of a weird name, but then again...It could be worse, she could live on a p called Earth or Terra or something to do with dirt... Who could live with something like that am I right?

  She was digressing. "Zaveria, mostly desoted vast nds that hold two tis of Zaanam. To the east it holds Veritis and to the west Germania, while they hold an amicable retionship with Germania ais they held a more strangled oh The Imperium of Izanami after they were found out to be pnning to use them as a scapegoat in the first world war. " Read the blonde in the book, noting the names of those other powers to be for further research ter.

  "To the north, they have the frozen nds where no life survive so they are a strong people used to living in harsh enviros, and while the icy tundras 't be used as farmnds they hold some fertile nd to the south, most of their farmnd is held behind mountains used as natural barriers against possible enemies." She started skipping pages after that since she wasn't that ied in the geography of the pce.

  After skipping some information about their politics she found a se that held her i and started reading once again "This try, however, was among the few ohat didn't fight for presence from [The Twelve] after their sed iteration and the end of the first world war. Currently, there are unfirmed rumors of [Shadow Pact] living among the popuce of Zarevia. While the capital (Nevrosk) firmly dehis to the point of not even allog any budget to [The Twelve] there are some sightings of the mysterious member of [The Twelve]..." And at this, she closed the book.

  "I'm going to Zarevia on my vacation...!" Said the blonde while writing just that and throwing the o her shadow for safe keeping in her [Iory].

  "Britania..." Read her book and it even had a shield crest with some gold decorations. "...Founded by bbb....Current stronghold of The Saintsworth glomerate bbbb..." Started skipping the girl ign most of this in her search for information about who or what lived here. "...And for that reason [The Traveler] was deemed the lucky chosen from [The Twelve] to live here. He was awarded a noble peerage of [Duke] and a monthly stipend, he donated most of his moo The Saintsworth's glomerate who in tur to fund orphanages for the needy." Finished reading the blonde girl.

  "So they are the ohat fuhe orphanages in [Britania]?" Wondered aloud the blonde girl, after that, she started writing another note "If I ehe capital [Camelot]...Give a pint to the royals about Rossie's Orphanage." Said out loud the blonde girl as she wrote, then also threw said o her [Iory].

  "!" She was starting to like saying that out loud while grabbing the book. It seemed these booths had very good sound isotion.

  "Germania..." The one was a bloody red book that even mao look ominous. " The former known as The Empire of Germania was a harsh and pure meritocracy..." Started reading the blonde girl while going over the information.

  It described an empire that fought against almost all the powers to be and kickstarted the first world war, the ohat made the first powereds to fight...And in a way, the reason that her father ended up fighting in to make end.

  "At the end of the war and with the order from [The Twelve] two of its members were chosen to reside and monitor the gover in its capital of Eldenstadt." That was...Scary.

  A non-goveral force imposing its might against a political power? A quick sear the puter gave her the answer of who was living as a monitht now "[The Sniper] and [The Juggernaut]..." And sure enough, there icture of a behemoth of what should be a human.

  A living armor that stood almost three meters tall if she was paring it against the houses and other people around, right o the article was a video. After pying it she found said figure fighting against a group of powereds and mages.

  It seemed that a group of [Vilins] wao get them out of town "Free The Reich from the outsiders!" Screamed one of the rebels, behind him, she barely could see someone juring magic circles.

  It seemed that some mages were among them...A funny thought since her mother always said that most mages don't like powereds siheir powerset doesn't mix that well.

  But if [The Juggernaut] was indeed a powered as his appearance suggested that was a good way to deal with him. She didn't get to see how that hero dealt with it though.

  *BANG*

  Since a gunshot put everyone in a panid sure enough the mage that was casting his spell fell to the ground, after that a few extra shots, and others also fell after him. [The Sniper] was looking.

  The video ended soon enough with that group either smashed into the ground, or with its brain smashed against the ground.

  No wounds in the behemoth that was [The Juggernaut] nor the presence of [The Sniper] was found. From the video itself and how the bodies fell one could think that there were more than one shough.

  Sinobody fell in the same dire and they all hid c different vantage points, but they all fell from a gunshot wound in the middle of their forehead.

  "Scary." Was all the blonde could say about that "But effective."

  She just shuddered and crossed Germania from her visit options, she would stay away from that pce if she could. No way in hell she was messing around with a pce that held that kind of monster.

  "The Imperium of Izanami..." Was the book on her list. "A previously isoted nation that is mostly a group of isnds and archipegos." Started reading, she wasn't in the mood of skipping as much as before "Famed for his [Mages] and their focus in [tracts]..."That was iing if nothing else. "In their capital [Kaguya] the most famed one is the heir of their current [Shogun], [The Elementalist] formerly known as Prince Oda Ryuuji. " ...What?

  Weren't their names...Secret?

  Did this man just reveal his identity to the world at rge?

  And if it was this easy to find how had she not known of it before?

  She searched the name and sure enough, there icture of a nondescript man in what looked like a traditional robe...A further search of [The Elementalist] found the same man but now with a more [Mage] looking clothing, but sure enough they held the same face.

  "...He currently lives as [Mage] for [The Twelve] with his base of operation at the capital [Kaguya] with his bodyguard that also joihe Twelve] and now works as [The Beastmaster]." At least that one didn't reveal his o the world.

  She however only found photos of him in the background of other members of [The Twelve] it seemed that he wasn't that fond of getting into the spotlight...Not even [Shadow Pact] was that hard to find and his whole deal was secrecy!

  "The Ameri Federation..." She pondered if she should read that one. " Capital known as [Avalon] location unknown..." She skipped information on Avalon...Or more like the pages that held tons of useless specutions. "[The Ameri Crusader] and [The Stardust Explorer] Live there and no further information is provided i fifteen years without expnation. Any information will be rewarded." Ehe book.

  So dearest father and preother cut the tact with the world after she was born?

  That was...Odd...She knew her parents were what many would call 'Helicopter parents' but she wasn't aware that it was that bad.

  She would speak with them about that ter.

  "!" Giggled the blonde girl while grabbing the book, by now she would think that someone would have e to pester her about making a ruckus but no one was ing so the isotion must be really good.

  "Veritalis." Was what read i book in her small pile. "A small power that used to hold the ter of one of the oldest religions in the world. It raised in power and might after the advent of [Magic] sihe priests mao make tracts with their deities...Making the capital [Zephyria] the hub for both [Priests] and [Shamans]." She found it funny how a religious capital would summon both priests and shamans sihe sed ones usually made tracts with devils and demons.

  "Currently [The Prophet] and [The Warlock] are known to reside here managing both spectrums of [Faith Magi the world." Ehe book.

  That was weird...Shouldn't those two be at odds siheir patrons are enemies?

  One would think someone called [The Warlock] would be a tracted mage to a demon or something...If anything his appearance spoke of that. Especially with all of that blue skin and horns thing he had going.

  But she wasn't the ohat made the rules so she shrugged and moved "!" on...

  The book the blonde grabbed was ohat spoke at length "About [Triggers] and [Awakenings]" it said on its first page.

  "A [Trigger] or [Trigger Event] happens when the [Skill] sleeping in the powered is stimuted by the energy of its holder. [The Skill] will read the iions and character of his holder and mold itself to the needs of him. If during duress a [Skill] that was meant to be physical [Trigger] as a strength, speed or endurance [Skill] depending if its holder o Fight, run or just survive..." The book spoke about [Skills] as if they would mold themselves as how one hem...?

  "And if the [Skill Bearer] were to suffer duress at a younger age then we have the event mostly known as a [Bad Trigger]. In which case a [Skill] either awakens partially or in a twisted way. Most of the time the [Skill] harms the bearer or in unlucky events harms those near him. Runaway fires that hold nard for allies or the user... Regeion that creates cerous tumors..." The list went on and on about terrible outes, from examples of speedsters that ran into walls to flying powers that couldn't be turned off.

  It was a list of the worse that a powered could end with, and ended with "The lucky ones are those that hold powers that are to but don't harm the user. Sihose work as [Heroes] for either private over-owerprises, where they are allocated [Tinker Grade] equipment to mitigate the worst parts of their power. Allowing them a normal life." And it e that.

  She...Was worried, some parts of the descriptions were scarily simir to how she couldn't trol her powers iest outbreak, or how her shadows would mahemselves as ons aimed at those that angered her.

  Granted she hadn't hurt anyone...Nor herself...She hadn't hurt Rossie in her more ret outbreak of emotions, but she wasn't sure if that was Nyx helping her or not. She didn't feel that Nyx was 100% under her trol either, as the shadons seemed intelligent and indepe enough.

  Even if her [Skill] said they weren't alive.

  She o know more about this. But who could she ask?

  A quick sear the about how to deal with bad triggers didn't help either "Usually to deal with a bad trigger you call the local powered anizatio [Heroverment]...bbb" She scrolled more skipping the propaganda and arrived at what she needed "Were they will assign a [Hero] with a simir powerset as the [Bad Trigger]. So they reigburst till a [Tiype Powered] work a suitable equipment to trol the [Skill]."

  ...So she needed another [Shadow] type powered to help her trol her outbursts?

  ...She looked at the pamphlet her father had given her, a sear the had givehe information of that [Vilin]. She indeed held a [Shadow Theme] for her antics...

  She really didn't want to go to her since she didn't know how much her father had meddled with that [Vilin] nor what he had told her...

  She would o think about this.
