Chapter 2

I staggered along the road.
Although I carefully controlled the alcohol volume, I was still a little drunk.
I accidentally touched the stairs and fell.
I finally woke up a little.Oh, where is this place?
I shook my head.
The name of this bookshop was very arrogant.
It was called the Immortal Bookshop.
I wanted to see what kind of books you sold.
I shook my body and walked in.
My head was still very confused.
Normally, I wouldn't be so curious.
However, people who were drunk would never wake up.
That's why I entered with my blurry eyes..I opened the half-closed door and squinted at the strange bookstore.
The bookstore wasn't big, and it was dimly lit.
There was a tall bookshelf on both sides, and books were all over it.
However, there was a thick layer of dust on the bookshelf, and there were all kinds of strange bottles and jars on the table.I stomped on the ground with my foot, causing a creaking sound.
The first thing I felt when I entered was the ancient air, and the air was filled with the scent of decay.
The second feeling was gloomy.
The flickering candlelight reflected the crooked shadow on the wall, making my hair stand on end.
The strangest thing was that although all the books were covered in a thick layer of dust, I could still clearly see that none of the books had a name..Now that I was half awake, I immediately wanted to leave, but an elderly voice suddenly rang out from behind me.
"Young man, since you're here, why aren't you going in to take a look?"Cold sweat dribbled down my spine.
I remembered that there was no one behind me.
I turned around stiffly.
I was already starting to imagine the ghost scenes in those horror films.
Holy crap, although I was mentally prepared, the moment I turned around, I thought I had really run into a ghost.
However, the shadow on the ground clearly told me that it wasn't a ghost.."Haha, it's too late.
I won't bother you," I said, teeth chattering.It wasn't my fault for being so scared.
If you saw an old man with skin and bones tightly wrapped around his body in this environment, you would react the same way I did."How can I do that?
Anyone who comes here will choose a book.
It's an unexpected benefit!" Ignoring my objection, the old man reached out his bony hand to grab me, but I couldn't help but follow him.He led me to a row of bookshelves and said to me, "Take a pick.
Is this a book suitable for you?""A book suitable for me?" I temporarily forgot about my fear when I heard this.
How did he know that the books here were suitable for me?
I didn't say what kind of book I wanted to read."That's right, there's a book in everyone's heart here.
It depends on how you choose."I looked at the rows of bookshelves doubtfully.
I took out a book that was covered in thick dust and coughed.
Before I could look at the book I was holding, the old man pulled me to the table again.
He casually cleaned the bottles and jars on the table and took out a yellow exercise book from the drawer.
It was a thin book, but it made people feel as if it would be eroded at any time.He flipped through a few pages and pointed at a line.
"Alright, sign your name and you can leave.""...""Don't you want to bet gold?""There's no need for that.
Alright, let's sign it and leave." The old man didn't bother with me after I signed it.
He just pointed at the door and asked me to leave.I walked out of the bookstore and walked out of the alley in a daze.
I felt that everything was strange.
I remembered that something was wrong.
I didn't have this bookstore since I left yesterday.
Why did it suddenly happen today?
My whole body shivered.
I suddenly had the urge to turn around and take a look.
I thought about it and thought about it.
It was getting late.
I had so much to drink today, so I should go back and rest earlier..When I returned to my room, all three roommates weren't there.
I guessed they had gone out to play all night.
I shook my head and turned on the light.
I wanted to see what was written in this book.Sitting at the head of the bed, I carefully studied this strange book.
The outer shell of the book was gray, but there was no name or production date on it.
After cleaning it, the book was very new.
I didn't know what it was made of, but it had a metallic texture.
I opened the first page with a question."This..." When I opened the book, the entire book was divided into three parts, each of which was written in a rhythmic, sacred, and shadow.
"This is clearly the three talents of the priests of the Kingdom of Devil Beasts!" The first thing I thought of was the game of the Kingdom of Devil Beasts.Suddenly, the book emitted a dazzling light.
After a moment, the light dissipated and a few large words appeared.
Please choose a type of talent.
At this moment, the 3 sections of the book began to flicker with different lights, emitting a faint white light.
The golden light was sacred and the shadow seemed to be shrouded in black fog..I was shocked by the scene before me.
It took me a long time to come back to my senses, to put down the book in my hand, to close the curtains, to realize that something was about to change my fate.
When I turned on all the lamps in my bedchamber, I slipped into my quilt and looked at the three familiar gifts.
I suddenly wanted to laugh, but my reason suppressed the urge.
Did the priest -- could he really stand behind someone else forever?
Could the darkness -- could he never defeat the light?
Could justice really exist?
I smiled evilly and pressed my hand in the direction of the dark shadow, so I chose to become the Dark Shepherd..
