《The Lost Characters [Vanilla Dark Fantasy]》085

Adam felt that something furry was touching him, he slowly opened his eyes and saw that he was lying on a bed made of school desks, his body is rudimentary bandaged with black robes stained with blood and some burnt parts. It seemed that someone had brought him to a classroom to help him.
Adam looked to the side, trying to see what was being touched, but he couldn't see anything from his angle; it seemed that someone was helping him from under the desk.
The young man was very weak and could not hear anything through his ears. Unbelievably, his glasses were still perfect and were on his head, so the effect was still activated.
Adam noticed that the room had some tiny, golden footprints that stand out quite a bit in the sea of white footsteps made up of librarians. It seemed that whoever was helping them was not human. With surprise, Adam looked down from the desk to find a Sombrin struggling to try to bind his legs with a piece of robe.
The completely furry creature noticed Adam's look and knew that the boy had woken up, he quickly pulled a book out of his white bag and dropped it on the floor. She then pushed Adam off the desk bed onto the classroom floor.
*Puff* Adam, confused by just waking up, fell to the ground, immediately afterwards he noticed that the sombrin ran and kicked him in the belly.
*Ouch*. Adam yelled, covering his belly, this time he did hurt a lot.
After kicking him, the hat disappeared, leaving the hurt young man alone in the classroom.
Adam looked in surprise at the place where the creature had disappeared, he didn't understand why he had helped it, much less why he wanted to kick it so much.

Adam tried to get up, but he noticed that it was difficult to keep his balance, he felt that it was too strange not to be able to hear anything. However, the young man did not despair because he trusted that he would only have to get to the cave to be able to heal in the lake water. The problem now was to get down 400 steps in a miserable state.
Carefully, Adam walked over to the magical (or cursed) book and carefully picked it up, hiding it in his robes.
Luckily the book looked good, at first glance it didn't seem to be very magical, but it was very pretty: its cover was brown leather, and it had a green metal plate on one of its covers that said: 'Ham and Cheese'. It looked like a cookbook, but very well decorated.
Removing some annoying bandages Adam prepared for his long walk to the cave, when he left the classroom he realized that there was absolutely no one in the corridors, so he continued on his way in silence without being able to hear his own steps.
Leaving school, he noticed that the bookshelves in the main hallway of Hexagon 4 were destroyed. Some shelves were completely burned by the fire and others had all their shelves broken by the force of the impulse, however there were other shelves in the main aisle that were intact. Adam guessed they were the magic ones or the important ones, so they were able to fend off the flames.
The ones who were not saved from the flames were the librarians, not all of them exploded by the sonic wave, so there were still traces of wounded everywhere and the corpses were not lacking.
Adam was shocked for a moment by the scene. Then he took out his godfather that was always kept in one of the pockets of his robe, designed to keep it. He wanted to ask her why the director had changed his attitude so radically, it couldn't be a mere chance. The red-haired young man did not want to believe that it was just a coincidence.

His godfather replied: 'Did you get another promotion? The first was no accident, but this one was. You're lucky... Very lucky... Too lucky, don't you think?'
Adam stared at the message for a few minutes, it was quite short, but there was a part that he thought he was misunderstanding, which is why he asked: 'How was the first promotion not a coincidence?'
His godfather answered:
'Nothing is by chance on this floor, Adam.
Who will take my biography would be the hermit's impossible answer, so I ensured that my heir would have a yes or yes, a promotion and the magical book that it brings.
I told the solution to that riddle to the hermit a while back: The bookshelf in hexagon 0 can only ask for the names of those born on this floor. You only study all but one born. In this case: the guy with my biography.
But that doesn't matter. The answer you were looking for was: Karma, your director wanted to ascend with bad karma. Why do it: I don't know. I don't know that much about promotions and I didn't find it useful to know about them, I never looked for promotions. That's probably why I was able to find a way to beat the impossible answer and the hermit didn't.
And you want the opposite: good Karma. So stop wasting your time asking stupid questions and start helping the wounded!
It doesn't matter if you're deaf, and luckily you walk. These opportunities are few, and you should take advantage of them!
No matter what happens, don't steal a magic book from someone injured! Don't ruin your karma!'
