There was no precedence for normal civilians to have such a tool. And yet, there was one casually presented to them.
"Cecil, h-how did you make this?!" Eli asked in shock.
"He, he!" Cecil laughed smugly with his nose pointed towards the sky, "I—"
Before he could begin any explanation, the boy immediately collapsed on his back onto the ground.
"CEL!"
"H-hey!"
When his friends rushed over to his side, they were glad to find that he had only fallen asleep.

"Just...what was this brat doing?! It's like he hasn't even slept for almost a week now!" Ainz said as he quickly shouldered the sleeping foxkin.
"..."
Lucia could only stay silent at his words. The two shared a room, but it was only recently that she found out that Cecil hadn't been returning to the cultivation building, and according to him, he's been away from the building for almost 3 weeks now!
"Ugh..."
"Don't feel bad, Lulu~ he's just up to his crazy stuff again~" Serilla patted her back and comforted.
Ainz brought Cecil out and headed towards the cultivation building. He'd let the boy sleep and recuperate in there. The Little Kings informed the other academy students that they needed more time, a day or so.
Zephyr naturally agreed and so did the others. Only the Beastman Leader had voiced being against it, but with everyone else voicing their agreement to wait, he could only put it to rest and reluctantly follow along.
It wasn't until 2 days later that Cecil woke up.
"Nnggghhh~ after 5 days of not sleeping...I feel really refreshed now~" Cecil hummed happily as he and his party members were heading into the direction of the teleportation gate that would take them out of the trials. It was located on the top most floor of the magi-tech building.
When Cecil needed another day to rest, the Beastmen naturally protested, they decided that they would just exit the trials by themselves, but unfortunately for them, they couldn't open the door into the teleportation gates' room.
A key was needed to open the room, but no one knew where to find it. It was only when Cecil woke up, read the inscription on the door, and found out that they needed to craft the magi-tech key from the materials readily prepared inside the building.
Everyone else was clueless on what to do since they couldn't read the ancient language that were used in all of the building's doc.u.mentation, not to mention that no one in the group had any knowledge in magi-tech crafting.
It wasn't a problem for Cecil though, when he saw the requirements to open the door, Cecil quickly rushed back to the workshop he was using. He found the spatial rings that n.o.body bothered to take and quickly took out some materials.
The crafting blueprint for the key was engraved on the door and he had already memorized it. It took him half a day to craft the key. His knowledge and ability to create magi-tech was finally known to everyone.
At first, no one besides the Little Kings knew what exactly he had been doing inside the workshop, but when he came out with the unique looking key, they were finally aware of his ability to read the ancient language and his magi-tech craftsmans.h.i.+p.
Many wanted to ask questions, but Cecil only lightly brushed off their questions and told them that there were more important things like opening the door and exiting the trials.
When Cecil opened the door, the interior of the room was finally revealed to everyone, and to Cecil's astonishment...there wasn't only the teleportation gate in the wide room. He was actually able to find blueprints, records, and research doc.u.ments in the crafting, history and development of teleportation gates!
Just as everyone was heading over to the gates, Cecil was already all over the large bookcases in the room. With Hyper-sensitivity activated, Cecil had immediately begun his speed reading.
"HOOOOHH!!! IT'S HERE!" His sudden outburst and weird actions caused everyone in the room to turn an odd look at him.
The academy leaders quickly walked over to his side and saw him rapidly flipping through the pages of the book he was holding.
Cecil quickly finished a book. He then extracted his Magic Tome and writing tools before immediately copying down the information. He activated Mana Burst and his writing speed immediately quickened.
"H-hey, Cecil, what're you doing?" Zephyr asked lightly.
Everyone else was about to ask the same thing, but Cecil quickly and coldly replied, "Don't bother me."
He didn't lift his head and continued writing. His words caused everyone to blank out for a minute. While the others only felt a little awkward, only the Beastman Leader was red with anger, but he didn't dare to do anything however since he felt two piercing glares boring into his back.
Zephyr saw how focused Cecil was and only chuckled. He had already gotten used to his eccentric behavior. He went next to him and pulled out a thick book from the book case, and began flipping through the pages.
He didn't understand anything that was recorded, but from the ill.u.s.trations he saw inside, he could infer that it had something to do with teleportation gates. Zephyr widened his eyes in shock when he came to this conclusion.
If Cecil was recording all of this down...then very soon in the near future, the Anglaria Kingdom would most likely have a teleportation gate of their own. It would no longer be an exclusive magi-tech limited only to the Elfenheim Kingdom!
Zephyr shook his head and smiled at the fervent foxkin who now had piles of books scattered in his surroundings. He couldn't understand how Cecil could flip through those books so rapidly and copy down what he saw with such rapid speeds.
Cleo was standing next to Cecil and couldn't help but look on in shock at the speed of Cecil's writing and reading.
"...wow..."
The students once again had to wait for Cecil. It was only after a full day of nonstop writing that he had finished recording all the knowledge into his Magic Tome. He noticed that there was no one around by the time he was finished.
He looked over at the teleportation gate and saw that it hadn't been activated. Cecil walked out of the room and saw Lucia and Serilla waiting for him just outside.
"Hey Cel, are you done?" Lucia asked.
"Yeah...where's everyone else?"
"They decided that they'll wait until you finished, another 'key' was needed to activate the teleportation gate."
"Again? Ahh geez..."
Cecil turned around and walked over to the teleportation gate. He noticed a stone slab with letters on it just to the right of the gate.
"Oh...it only requires the previous key..."
Cecil walked back out and along with the 2 girls, returned to the cultivation building. Everyone else was inside meditating.
Cecil went into one of the unoccupied rooms and thought that he should reorganize all of his rewards that he's gotten through the trials. He had been so busy that he never bothered to check what other skills or abilities he's acquired from obtaining the World Tree's Thorns and Blessings.
The problem was...
"...are we really doing this again?"
"What do you mean Cel~?" Lucia asked with a bright smile as she forthrightly followed him into the room.
"Yeah, darling, what do you mean~?"
Serilla's intimate way of calling him made Cecil's face twitch.
"Hey! That's no fair, Seri!" Lucia spoke up protest.
"Why? You get to call Cecil, Cel, so shouldn't I have a cute nickname for him as well?"
"But...darling's a bit...hmm..."
"Hihihi~ it's decided then, okay~?"
"..."
Cecil could only tiredly ma.s.sage his brows. He hadn't slept yet, but he still felt energetic.
'It's probably because of the Ki, right?'
Now that he thought about it, Cecil had actually gone 5 days straight without sleep, food, or water. Normally the consequence for such a thing to a normal human being was pretty severe, but all he did was fall asleep for two days before waking up feeling refreshed.
It was the same this time, he had done nothing but write all day long and for some reason, he didn't feel tired or drained at all!
"Whatever, let's just see what other things I got from the World Tree's Blessing..."
Cecil mumbled and went over to sit down on the bed inside of the room. He sat crossed legged, activated Mana Sense and finally took a look at his own body.
"!"
