Hmmmm ... becoming the new main character? This seems interesting but not quite what I wanted. I need to check this MOTS book out a lot more with Leon.
Before that I will take my white coat and my cellphone first.
"Why is Zira taking so long? Did something happen to her?"
"I wonder what happened in there?"
"Ding!"
-TWS: Are you interested in the story you just read? We'd love for you to meet us somewhere.
Huh? What? Is he the author of the MOTW book? If so, I can't wait to meet the author. Who knows, I might find out why he created that weird book.
-Zira: Yes, I will meet you. First tell me where you are? Can it?
-TWS: Yes, I will give you the address where you can meet me.
"Ding!"
[Location received]
Hmmmm ... the place is a museum building. Is he in the museum? And from the building, the museum looks like a museum art. Okay, let's go there!
"Why is Zira inside so long? It's not like she usually takes this long."
Leon, forgive me for being out for too long. I opened the door to my house and saw Leon with a gloomy expression.
"Why did you take so long? I've been waiting for you for ages!
Sorry, I found something strange in the book you found yesterday. I'll get the book in a moment. I took the book from my bag and gave it to Leon.
This is the book
"Hmmmmm... The title of this book has changed and the contents of this book look thicker than before"
And I got a message from the author of the book asking me to meet him at an art museum. Not too far from the library where the book was found.
"Okay, get in the car and we'll be there soon."
I got into his car and couldn't wait to see the author of the book.
...
"Heart of flame I have made into an accessory in the form of a luxurious necklace. I hope my first readers like it"
Kaito then came out of the library and saw an art museum building not far from the library. He started to get interested in going there and left the library by himself.
"A trip to the museum sounds interesting. Okay, let's go there!"
In the car I was reading the next page after the prologue of the story. I found some strange information. The story now starts to talk about the invasion of the outer gods and the destruction of the world by the outer gods.
[Outer God is also known as the Entity that created various universes. Making their creations only for their entertainment. They do not care what happens to their creations. And if they get bored and don't like one of their creations, they will destroy the world.]
Why destroy the world because of their boredom? Is this the true form of the creator gods in this story.
[The Albacstrian world is being destroyed. A huge hand that exceeds the size of the universe is holding the world and slowly starting to crumble]
[And even the Albacstrian world was destroyed by the outer gods]
No. Why did the story become like this. But ... This story is similar to the story from my favorite book SOS is this book combining two different stories in the same container?
"Why Zira? You seem worried. Don't worry, we will get to the museum according to the address the secret writer gave you "
Don't worry, I was just a little surprised to see the beginning of this story is different from before. It seems like this storyline is more difficult than I thought.
"Have arrived at this museum. As per what is given in the address."
This museum is ... British Museum.
The British Museum is England's national museum dedicated to human history, art, and culture from around the world. Located on Great Russell Street, London, this museum houses more than 8 million objects from various world civilizations.
""Let's go into this museum."
Leon invited me to enter the museum but I felt something strange.
Huh who is that? A mysterious person wearing all white clothes and a long hat
"It's free to enter here. So don't worry. There are only a few special paid exhibitions here and if you want to see them I'll pay for it."
"Ding!"
Is that the message from the author?
Wait a minute, Leon. I want to check the message from the author.
"Okay"
-TWS: If you are already in front of the museum. Just go inside, I'm already there.
-Zira: I will come to you and I hope you don't run away!
-TWS: Hurry up before my legs move again.
If left like this, TWS could run away again.
Leon, Let's go into the museum.
"Okay"
Inside the library Kaito walks around and looks at all the artifacts human history, art, culture from all over the world. The many historical objects from various civilizations caught Kaito's attention.
"Egyptian mummies, calligraphy, statues of gods and goddesses, masks and various artifacts of this ancient kingdom are very interesting."
I think he's here. Let's split up Leon. You go there and I'll go here.
"Okay"
I entered the gallery that had many famous paintings here. I observed and saw several paintings here that made me curious.
On my right I see a painting of the tree of life which contains life energy to support life in various worlds.
On the left I see a painting of the Goddess Athena surrounded by her five loyal star warriors. This painting is amazing because it looks like a hand—painted painting and is very beautiful.
And in front of me was a strange painting. On top was a man who saved a little devil. In the middle of it, that person was taking care of the little devil to become an ordinary girl. And beneath him the girl becomes an angel who protects the man.
Seeing various paintings like this. Just like the story in the book SOS.
Did the author intentionally show this to me?
"Hey, what are you doing here little girl?"
The voice came from behind me. When I turned around I saw a man dressed neatly in all white. Was he the author and creator of the book?
"Hey, I ask again what are you doing here young lady?"
He held my right hand and stared at me sharply. Symbolizing the strong anger that couldn't let go of me.
I'm here just to find the secret author of this book and not by chance found these paintings and you.
"What book do you mean? That's not important I have a question for you. Would you mind answering it?"
What questions do you want to ask and what reward do I receive from you?
"Just a simple question and I will let go of your hand and give you a precious accessory. Do you want it?"
I have no choice but to answer the man's question. Okay, give me the question.
He started to release his grip and said.
"In your opinion, Is it more noble to win something by losing, or to lose many times but remain faithful to the struggle?"
Both are noble but it depends on your perspective on the two options.
"Huh? What do you mean?"
Okay, I'll explain. First victory, you know there is no victory without sacrifice. We all must sacrifice something just for victory.
Repeated defeats do not mean failure if they are endured with courage and loyalty. This is where true worth is tested: when no one wins, no one sees, But that person still stands and believes.
If you seek change, perhaps victory is more important.
If you seek meaning, perhaps faithful defeat is more lasting.
"I am interested in your answer. Okay girl, I will give you one of those accessories."
The man took a cardboard box from his jacket and gave it to me.
"This is a gift as my response to your question"
Thank you. I opened the box and I saw a necklace with bright red crystal inside. I started to wear it around my neck.
Once again, thank you.
"Okay, I'll go again, goodbye"
The man disappeared from my sight. But ... Something was strange. Where was the MOTS book I brought earlier? Did he take it while I was focused on the gift?
Damn I was too focused on the gift that I forgot he took the book without my knowledge.
"Zira what happened? Where is the book? Why do you look worried?"
There was someone who asked me a question, I answered the question in return he gave me a necklace accessory. But because I was too focused on the gift I forgot to keep the book.
It seems like he is the author who wants to take the book back and pretends to ask me. I'm sorry this may be my mistake.
"Don't blame yourself too much. Let's go find him and do you know where he went?"
He went out and it seemed like there was a library near this museum. If that's true then he went to that library. Do you know of a library near the British Museum?
"There is a Maughan library. It is not far from here. Let's go there!"
Well, let's go there and find out about the man and the mystery of the book.
We both tried to track down where the man went to a library. What I know for sure is that he wanted to return the book to the library. If that's true then he is the secret author the book.
At Maughan's library, Kaito begins to worry as his system's detection has warned him to re-enter the story in the book.
[The fourth wall has found you. Please re—enter the story in the book]
"Damn they found me. If this goes on my time here will be up."
"We found you, give up you thief!"
Leon and I have been here and found him who stole the book. I saw him seem worried to see us here. Why?
"Well, now that you're here, I can tell you something."
"What do you want to do with the book and who are you?"
It seems like the pressure Leon gave was enough for the man. But the strangeness here appeared ... he smiled faintly and looked back at me.
"Hey young lady. You know what I gave you earlier? "Well, I gave you that necklace so that it would separate from me."
"But you brought it back instead and my goal in taking the book was to save you and your friend from the book's anger."
What actually happened and why did you say that? Tell me all of that honestly you mysterious man.
"You better tell us everything or I'll beat you up real hard"
"Okay. Because I'm in a tight spot like this, I'll explain everything to you."
The man took the book from the bookshelf and pointed to the star logo on the front cover of the book.
"Yes, the book has undergone contraction or merging. This book combines two different stories into one container. And this is the reason why I took the book because the book should not be here and known to outsiders like you."
"And I am the main character of the mysterious book that you found. Yes, I managed to get out of the story of the book. Which made the book lose the ownership of the main character and experiencing contractions."
So you're the main character who managed to get out of the book?
"And you want to take the book because you want to re-enter the world of the book's story?"
"Yes, because I want to fix and overcome the various problems that I caused when I first left the book."
Before Kaito could explain further, the star logo on the front cover of the book lit up brightly. And blue energy emerged from the star logo and headed towards the necklace I was currently wearing.
This necklace is bright red and gives off the same energy as the book. Two different energies combine to create tiny particles with unique colors.
"Tring!" (The sound of glass breaking is thin like glass)
What is really happening? Why are there so many cracks here. These cracks are like cracks between the boundaries of something big.
"No. Maybe this is a crack in the barrier between reality and fiction."
What do you mean by that barrier?
"In this world there is a boundary that separates reality and fiction. I am from the fiction world and you are from the real world. We should not have met like this."
"Because my presence has broken the barrier and violated the rules of the fictional world. And if it's like this then the three of us will be pulled into the book."
"What do you mean? Why did you break the rule huh?"
Leon looked furious at Kaito. He strangled the man's neck. But cracks appeared creating a strong attraction that could even pull objects in front of it.
It's like we're drawn in by the book.
"Zira help me"
"Hey you get out of here"
That was the last message they gave me before they were pulled into the crack in the book.
Why is this necklace not lighting up anymore?
"Swish!"
No, he's not pulling me. Arghhh help me!
[Everyone here has entered the world in the book. Every mistake must be accounted for. You all must be responsible for what you do!]
Everyone in the room disappeared instantly, like ashes blown away by the wind, and I was one of those who disappeared because of the pull of the fragments from the boundary between reality and fiction.
