I enter the library and start reading, like normal however I realise there is only around a hundred books left. and I am impatient to finish reading all the books, I set all the books out on a table that I have not read. there is 97 books, Perfect. I sit back 100 Eye Projection, I have the spare eyes check to make sure I did not miss any books. I sit reading for a bit, turning each page with psychokinesis. half an hour later and I was done, I put every book back, however lucky I sent Mana eyes searching, I missed 1 book. simple enough I sat down and read this book. every page was blank.

[A Special Event Has Been Started: The Lost Pages]

[Reward: 5 book related skills]

[Return The Lost Pages, Or Remain Lost Yourself]

Sure enough everything around be went white and then I found myself surrounded by unfamiliar bookshelves. they formed corridors, the books were empty and the bookshelves ever indestructible, I tested with Dragon Claw. I walked around in the corridors and then saw something... a ghost? it was a ghost holding a book.

[Librarian]

[Level 20,000]

[Conner White]

That name. I question why a Librarian here has it. enough questioning, I walk up to the Librarian and he started attacking me out of nowhere, he looked like an old ghost however he is attacking me. his book opened and he started shooting pages at me, I avoided them however when I looked they were blank. the Librarian is obviously a just a monster and the name is deceiving. the real Conner is stronger then this. I dash forward and use dragon claw, it only removes just under half the Librarians health. I used it two more times while avoiding the paper bullets. the Librarian dies and disappears, leaving a page behind. so this is what I am collecting. page number is 4006... I will be here a while.

I kill a few more Librarians however it was no challenge, until I entered a big open area, I walked right in and then the door closed behind me, books fell from the shelves. and from each book a Librarian was made. this time there was more of them, I evade as many as possible before using Dragon Wings, it cut through my wings like butter. I turned of Dragon Wings and started just avoiding as much as possible, I had no way of making any distance on them... I know...

[Blink Step Does Not Work In a Dungeon]

damn it. I keep avoiding trying to think of a plan, considering how easy this paper cut through Dragon Wings I don't want to try anything like using dragon claw on the pages to slice them up. I remove my Eyes Of A Barrier and try using that... it does nothing... well duh, they are ghosts holding books, not organic... so can I do anything, there is a lot of pages an evading all of them is hard. I know, they are still paper. I use Advanced Fire Cloak to burn them away. I charge up and try it, sure enough the pages are no longer an issue as they burn before they reach me, I then dash over to a Librarian and sure enough I kill him with one hit thanks to Fire. I then do the same to the others. and I pick up all the Pages.

[Floor 1 of 5 has been cleared, the stairs have been opened to the next floor]

If that is it this should be easy... maybe? I know that there should be a boss on the last floor, it may be difficult? oh well. I see the stairs so I walk down them.

[Elemental Librarian]

[Level 4,000,000]

[Conner White]

I still don't see why it is called conner white, however it looks a lot stronger. the Librarian spots me and then opens his book, he shoots much faster paper bullets and they are no longer made of paper. more like paper shaped ice, water, metal, dirt, fire and all sorts of other magic blasts. I then avoid a few however one hits and deals damage, not as an amount however as a fraction of my health, I lost an eighth of my health with one hit, I then use Burst Mode and move behind it to deliver the finishing blow, a powerful Dragon Claw barrage reducing its health to 0 after 11 Dragon Claws. something tells me this will be harder then I thought. I also noted I did not get experience, I wonder why? oh well, I walked around a bit and saw a small group of Elemental Librarians alongside a Healer Librarian. That is just great, now the damage I do will be healed If I don't kill them quick or kill the healer. I then walk within range for them to attack me and I avoid. I then use Burst Mode to make some ground and then I come into fighting range of one of them. I use Divine Dragon Claw, and then jump back, I avoid all the paper bullets except the ones covered in fire, I take those as fuel, after some time I use Fire Mirror and return all the built up fire burning them all for most their health, I then used Burst Mode to dash and kill the Healing Librarian, after that I use a well placed Divine Dragon Claw and slice all of the librarians in the area. with that I wait and gather the paper on the ground, the Librarians on this floor are dropping 1 page however in my inventory it shows as 5 - 6 pages. after some walking around and picking off one librarian at a time I make it to another big open room, the pathway behind me is sealed and then 5 books some and attack me, they all had hands attached to them, however they were all attached to the same person,

[Multitasking Librarian]

[Level 3,000,000]

[Conner White]

Multitasking? so each book does something different I suppose. However I have been in this dungeon for to long, Kate, Eron and Nina will be wondering where I am. since nobody is here to see, why don't I show you true power. "Dragon Form" I said while transforming, green scales, huge power boost. form of a dragon, what is not to love, oh wait... being on the receiving end. charge at the Multitasking Librarian, the 2 books are used like elemental Librarians use their books for. another 2 are used for healing. and the middle book is used for some kind of charged shot. I found that out the moment I entered attack range the librarian started firing much faster except for that middle book. I charge are the Librarian and use Dragon Claw with a dragons claw. the result was half of its health, before I use it again a charged shot hits me in the underbelly sending me back with half my health gone as well. however I left a present, I tail wiped him in Burst Mode as I was knocked back causing the greater part or his remaining health to vanish, and before I land I fire off around 7 Fire Bolts at its face. causing it to die. however It was not done with just dying once. all 5 books split apart into separate librarians.

[Book launcher]

[Level 500,000]

[Conner White]

And that my dear friends is the invitation to sit and wait to see what they do. I wait for them to do their thing as the books begin glowing, then they threw the books at me and I evaded them, I let my guard down after that because the books I just evaded came back at me from the other side, I was only able to evade it by the skin of my teeth. I then used Advanced Fire Cloak to melt all five of them with Magma. it was a simple task. with that I moved on. collecting all pieces of paper on the ground. the pieces only have page numbers they don't have words... strange

[Floor 2 of 5 has been cleared, the stairs have been opened to the next floor]

I walk down the next set of stairs. wondering what lovely thing awaited me. and sure enough this was the most simple floor yet, it was a straight line to the next set of stairs, bookshelves on either side of me. thinking it cant be this simple I decide it has to be a trap. as I slowly walk forwards I notice the books on the shelf have the pages side of the books facing me instead of the spine of the book. I then see each book start shooting paper out, some charged paper bullets, some normal, some elemental. something tells me this will take a bit to get through, I use Burst Mode and slowly make progress however the amount of pages is a lot more then before, I got hit 3 times causing me to loose 3/8ths of my health. just like that, I decide to use my burst a bit more powerfully, instead of 10 minuets like I was I used it at 5 minuets of burst. this hurt however the Pages were now moving slow enough to evade with ease. I got through them. however I no longer had any stamina so I fell asleep on the stairs. not the most comfy thing I have slept on but not the least.

I woke up with a full stamina bar however I did not get the saving message, I wonder why? oh well, I continue onto the next floor.

[Floor 4 Paper Weight Is Now In Affect: You now weigh your normal weight times that of each Librarian on this floor]

After that I felt myself crush into the ground. things like this make you regret having weighted training gear that weighs in tons. I quickly remove the weighted training gear and find that I am still heavier then normal. I have to get through this quickly, I quickly dash through the vast Maze of books. suerly enough I find one... singe.... librarian from the first floor. by himself. I tare his head off and move on. I cant see another librarian anywhere. I keep running all over this maze however nothing. I then map out the maze in my head. as I run through I notice it is changing each time I move to a different area... that is helpful. how kind of them. I use fire cloak and start running through while burning everything in my path, books on the shelf included to see where I have been before. I start seeing the odd bookshelf in front of me with all its books burnt to a crisp, I then decied to use Dragon Claw on it, thinking it is a moving bookshelf of something so it would be hiding something. and surely enough I was right

[Moving Bookshelf]

[Level 700,000]

[Conner White The AI]

The Name is different from the others. I wonder why? oh well It does not have any books so what is it going to do? I thought for a moment before each shelf restocked itself full of books. and started launching them like those Librarian Book Launchers. I proceed to burn the bookshelf and since it is made of wood it dies quickly. I wonder if they expected whoever went through this to not be a fire mage?

sure enough after burning a few more bookshelves I was done. I left my weighted training gear off this time and I proceed onto the next floor. they really were not expecting the person to go through this to be a fire mage where they?

[5th floor, boss battle]

and after I got the Blue box I was surrounded with a storm of paper that stopped me from moving or seeing anything. and when the paper left I found myself on a path made of paper, moving off into the distance where a book was. I walked towards it however the path separated, and paper from nowhere started forming a shape.

[The Gamer]

[Level 397]

[John Richardson]

A paper version of me came into view. It then dashed up to me, I dashed back and started Burning him with Fire Magic.

[John Richardson Is Immune To Greater Fire Magic]

that is helpful, I then dash at him and use Dragon Claw, he used blink step to avoid it... so I can use blink step here? interesting, I then dash over at him and swing a Dragon Claw at him, he avoids it however I use blink step and position myself so my Dragon Claw impacts his side. he took near no damage. so he has as much health as I do huh? wait... he doesn't have health regeneration. I can work with this. or so I thought but he used Burst Mode and kicked me in the face causing more damage then I did with Dragon Claw. I returned the favour and returned to my human form... I use Divine Dragon Claw hoping to end it with one more hit. the paper me then used Divine Dragon Claw with the same amount of strength, I avoid his and continue my slash on him, he avoids it and span around to continue his slash and this time he aimed for my head. I ducked under his swipe and then swiped up continuing my Divine Dragon Claw. for an upper cut however he evaded to the side and continuing his slash almost hit me, however I am faster evading them I am attacking moving back I evaded his attack and them returned it in kind, he avoided just like I did and used Blink Step to move behind me trying to slash me with that charged up Divine Dragon Claw. I jump backwards over his head, and as he looked up as me I Blink Stepped behind him and slashed at his back. he avoided it somehow knowing I was behind me... don't tell me he has my sensory skills to. I continue my assault with my Divine Dragon Claw, now wanting to power it down and waster an attack that will end him in one hit. suer enough I kick him in the gut and then clash him in the leg... he takes the damage from the kick to the gut however... with the small chance of ignoring damage that I possess he Ignored my Divine Dragon Claw. I jumped back and started avoiding his Divine Dragon Claw onslaught, I avoid each hit even when he tries to use Burst Mode I just match his power and avoid, waiting for the right moment to use Divine Dragon Claw. however I thought of another Idea. I started using Ice Magic and hitting him with Ice Spikes and Ice Bolts. he starts taking heavy damage with multiple Ice attacks hitting him at once and I thought I would win until he used Fire Cloak to melt the ice. Damn I am strong. the thing is though. My health regenerates, his isn't. he has around a quarter of his health left and I am still left stronger... until he Blink Stepped his hand into my chest. I always wondered what would happen. I found out. at the cost of his hand he implanted a whopping 70% of my health worth of damage. I was sent flying with a hand stuck in my chest. I had enough and decided to use my ultimate move. set burst mode to 1 minuet and stack with Dragon Pulse. reward was? I was able to run over to him and kill him before he saw what was coming. downside? my health is at 20% of full. my Mana is at 0. and my stamina is running low as well. with this. the paper bridge reformed and allowed me to reach the book at the end of it. as soon as I picked it up all the pages in my inventory vanished and went into the book. it was called by a simple name.
