You can still read those books in the Cafe in Edinburgh. There's also a whole bunch of new books from the Camelot library. Camelot will have a few places to go training; there's the Knight's training grounds, the Dojo Akane is building for you, and possible others.i got 3 saves so far! the typical blind save the ubermensch save where i went all out on monster hunting (got level 81) and a pacifist save where i trained instead of leveling up!
depending on how book2 runs my pacifist save even if i stay 10 lvls behind my ubermensch save will still provide me better overall stats towards the end since leveling tends to be harder on the end part! and one does not know how many training facilities we can find in Camelot that silly place! furthermore my books are all saved up i should be able to find a nice glade to read while my ubermensch save i have already read them all!
strategy weirdo i know!
