Fortunately, it was a straight path and we all survived it, coming to a stop at the Great Library of the Heavens.

“Amazing. It’s become one with the mountain.”

I looked up at the entrance to the library in admiring wonder. If you’d told me the Great Library of the Heavens was a building, I could kind of see it. There were remnants of architecture here and there, but otherwise, it just looked like the tip of a mountain.

“The library has trees growing on its outer wall.”

“Is it cover to thwart enemy attacks? No, there’s no one alive who could attack a floating island in this era, which means... Personal taste?” mused Hibiki.

“I heard the Great Library of the Heavens doubled as the king of Laputa’s residence, but this certainly doesn’t look like a castle...” added Satsuki.

Everyone else shared their opinion too, and it seemed we were all on the same page— this didn’t look like any library.

“So is it okay to just walk straight in?” I asked.

“Of course it’s okay. I’m here with you,” replied Nyanyan.

Somehow, that only made me worry more...

Nevertheless, we timidly followed after the fully confident Nyanyan as she walked straight through a door that I had completely missed.

“Whoa...”

I was surprised all over again once we got inside. The interior was decorated beautifully compared to the rugged exterior, and it was positively overflowing with books. There were mountains of them. No, a whole sea. One of my upperclassmen at school really loved books, but not even her vast collection could compare to this. All of these books wouldn’t even fit in a normal person’s house. Looking up at the atrium-styled floors, it was all bookshelves as far as the eye could see. With books almost literally stacked to the sky, I now understood why they called this place the Great Library of the Heavens.

“Umm... What’s that?”

But there was one other surprising sight in the library. They appeared to be employees bustling about busily, but no matter how I looked at them... They were just puppets moving on their own.

“Robots?!” several people, including me, exclaimed.

Unlike Shirley’s assistant, Garnet, these weren’t so delicately made that they could be mistaken for humans, which really only enhanced their robotic-ness.

“Are they some kind of marionette?”

Chirika, however, had no idea what robots were. Accordingly, she was a little less shocked than the rest of us. More so just... confused.

“They don’t seem to be bothered by us,” said Rain as she approached one of the puppets and patted it on the head.

“...”

It simply, silently, continued to work as if it hadn’t noticed.

“They don’t seem capable of autonomous thought like Garnet. They can only perform specific functions they’ve been preassigned,” Shirley analyzed.

Perhaps Laputa had these puppets working all over the place. Maybe one of them was what I saw on the mountain? It made me wonder...

“There are puppets, but no people?”

I strained my ears and listened, but couldn’t hear footsteps, talking... anything. Was there really nothing but puppets here?

“Hmm? What are you lot standing around for?
