Chapter 1066
"We can search two places to know details about the general. Maybe that is also the reason why we could actually touch things as we need to read it ourselves." Peridot stated as she pointed to two buildings.
The first build that she pointed at is the library which has all the general information of this era. They might find a clue of what is happening if they search there. The other area would be the study of the current patriarch. They just need to enter when the patriarch is busy tending to his duties.
"Do any of you want to go to the library?" Peridot asked but the two did not respond as they know that the library is not something they enter.
"Fine. If you two do not want to go the library, then I will have that location. In exchange, you two must work together to get the information in the study of the patriarch. Remember that we need to find information about General Guan Fu." Peridot stated as she headed towards the inside of the library.
Lycan and Kabrakan headed towards the study of the patriarch but noticed that he was still there. They needed to wait for him to get out as they might think that an invisible assailant is inside the room. They can touch things but that does not mean that nothing could stop them.
Peridot headed towards the library and ended up hearing gossip about General Guan Fu. She did not think that she will hear gossip first, but any information would be as good as any. The three women were gossiping about the general\'s social life as it seems that he is looking for a concubine.
"I hope that General Guan Fu is really looking for a concubine. I am a great candidate if that is the case." The woman stated.
"You really are a great candidate, big sister." One of the women stated and Peridot immediately knew that she was kissing her ass.
"I heard that one of the members from the Divine Sword Clan will be the concubine." The last of the three women gossiped.
"Seriously! To think that they want to get their hands on the general as well. Even though his mother was of low birth and a servant of the previous patriarch. It seems prestige really makes you rise more in life rather than status of one\'s birth." One of the women added.
"Even if the general\'s mother is a maidservant, he is still the son of the previous patriarch. It is a good thing that he did not covet that position or else a bloodbath would ensue in the clan." One of the women stated as Peridot listened attentively as they are now talking about juicy details.
"Even if they fight, I am sure that General Guan Fu would win because he grows stronger the more that he fights. Maybe he also grows stronger when he is in bed." One of the women stated as she made a rather obscene comment but the other two also think of the same.
All three women were blushing as Peridot walked away to find more information. She must not just believe hearsay or gossip. She must find official records of the general\'s battles as this time period is very chaotic in the east at the time. The divine beasts have yet to fully become powerhouses at this time period due to the dark gods.
"The patriarch has left the study. This is our chance." Kabrakan stated as he and Lycan slipped inside the study.
They are amazed by the number of documents inside that seems to be all about the territory management. One letter in particular has caught their attention as they read the name of the sender. It seems that the letter is from General Guan Fu.
The letter contains detailed accounts of his exploits and even the territories that he was conquering. There is also an unfinished letter near it, and it seems that it is written by the patriarch. It seems that the two have an amicable relationship since they are exchanging pleasantries. The patriarch wants the general to return as soon as possible as well.
"I think we jumped through the time when the dark gods have yet taken foot. If that is the case, then the General Guan Fu must also be quite a novice as well and is still building his prestige." Lycan stated as this era is too peaceful for there to be dark gods roaming around.
"I think that is the case too. Let us see if there are also things about the general here about his fighting prowess." Kabrakan added as they started their search.
An hour later, all three of them met once again as that is the time they decided to get back. They also received a notification that they will be returned back to their timeline in the next ten minutes. When they got that notification, they hurriedly looked for every information that they can.
In the end, they triggered the necessary things to finish the information gathering.
