My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character!-Chapter 30 - : The one inside the egg

Eren continued to ponder over the mysteries surrounding Elder Ren.

As he flew on the back of the Phoenix, he couldn't help but wonder why there was so little information about Elder Ren in the novel.

It felt like a deliberate omission, as if there was something important hidden about this character.

He knew that in order to uncover the truth, he needed to delve into the memory fragment he possessed.

It held the key to unlocking Elder Ren's past and understanding his true significance in this world.

"What a pity that I wasn't able to explore the library. But now I feel scared to go there."

"Is there another way for me to find out about the Memory Fragment in this world?"

The Phoenix soon reached the Mountain, assigned to Elder Ren, who was still talking to himself.

Gentle winds wrapped around Eren, sending him back to the room.

It was only when he landed inside the room that Eren came to his senses.

He looked back at the Phoenix outside.

"Thanks, little one. Have a good rest for now."

The phoenix screeched happily before flying high again, disappearing into the sky.

"She's truly like a child." Eren watched the Phoenix disappear for now.

He closed the door of the shabby house that belonged to him. This time, he didn't want to make the same mistake.

Previously, he had thought that no one could enter his house as it was at such great heights. And then Zhang Wei had arrived.

He made sure that he didn't leave the door open. If the door was closed, they had to knock at least to show respect to him.

After closing the door, he walked back to the bed.

"I have so many questions, but it looks like I can't rush things. I can only take things slowly, if I don't want to make mistakes."

He sat on the bed and opened the diary, in which he wrote everything that happened today.

He kept the diary back in his System Space and brought out the ring from the Mythical Hero Academy.

The ring was a way he could contact the Hero Academy. It was also something that the Hero Academy could use to contact him.

"Should I try contacting them so they don't think that something is wrong?" He thought out loud, looking at the ring.

"Tsk, no need. I already have more than enough to worry about. I can't handle more stress." He tossed the ring back in the System Space.

"That is..."

With the System Space open, his eyes noticed another item that was there. It was a small egg that he had mostly forgotten about.

It was a reward for his choice. He was supposed to bring it out as soon as he was alone, but he hadn't.

He didn't know what creature was inside the egg, but he didn't have high expectations.

"It's not as if I'm going to get another Mythical Beast. But still, I might as well get this over with."

He brought out the egg from System Space, placing it next to him.

The egg was the size of a football. However, the most strange part was that there were various strange patterns on the shell of the egg.

The patterns seemed to shimmer and change when he looked at them closely, as if they were alive. He hadn't noticed this peculiarity when the egg was in System Space.

Intrigued, he reached out his hand to touch the egg, feeling a faint warmth emanating from it.

"Just what is inside you... Since you're granted by the System, you shouldn't be ordinary either."

He could see that the egg wasn't normal. But it didn't match the description of a Mythical Beast Egg either.

A Mythical Beast Egg was usually the size of a human. There were also no patterns on a mythical beast egg.

"As long as you aren't a prank by this system to screw me over, it should be fine."

....

It was the beginning of a new day.

Eren had observed the egg for a long time, but it didn't hatch.

It was only after staying up for the entire night that Eren fell asleep, exhausted.

A cultivator in this world could stay awake for a few days with ease. But Eren's body was weaker than even an ordinary human.

It was surprising in itself that he had managed to stay awake until the morning, despite such a stressful day.

Before sleeping, he told the Phoenix to guard the mountain and wake him up, in case someone approached him.

Fortunately, there was no disturbance during his sleep. That was, until he felt someone pull his cheeks while he was in deep sleep.

At first, Eren didn't notice it. But with time, he sensed a sharp pain on his cheeks which woke him up.

"Hmm?"

He opened his eyes, rubbing his cheeks. The pain was too real for it to be a misconception.

He abruptly sat up, wondering if someone had intruded his room. But why didn't the Phoenix inform him in that case? He wondered.

His eyes searched around the room for another person, but there was none. But instead, he saw something else.

"You are..."

Next to him, there was the empty shell of the egg, which was broken. But it wasn't broken from the outside.

Next to him, there was a small creature, which kept poking him.

The creature looked at Eren with eyes filled with innocence.

"What are you?" Eren looked at the strange creature before him.

The novel had mentioned many beasts, but the creature before him was unlike any of them.

It was like a miniature version of a girl, with angel-like wings on its back.

If she was the size of a normal human and didn't have wings, she would have looked no different than an ordinary teenager.

She had long black hair that came down to her waist. Her beautiful green eyes sparkled with curiosity.

She was wearing a black dress that looked just right for her small size. Her wings were stark white, shimmering in the dim light of the room.

The girl was only as tall as his finger. She felt so weak that he could crush it with just his thumb.
