Chapter 2 - Episode 2. The Mysterious Book

I woke up in my room, I was sweating all over, lying on the cold floor.

I picked up the book again, and I could now read the language without any hesitation.

I noticed that the book had changed its color.

When I found it in the temple, it was dark purple with an eagle pattern all over the book.

Now, it turned light red, and the eagle pattern seemed to have disappeared.

But instead of a pattern, a text appeared.

*Ancient Magic*

The strange thing was that the book was in the latest condition, the pages were intact, and the book cover itself was beautiful and clean, as if it were a book from the city library, or someone was taking care of it.

*A knock on the door*

After knocking on the door, I was very scared, the book slipped off my hands and fell to the floor.

I quickly grabbed the book and hid it under the bed.

"Oh, who's that?" — asked Sato in a trembling voice.

"I opened the door quickly, the landlady came!" The man outside the door said in a loud tone

Heck! I haven't paid my rent for a week.

The salary will only be in three days.

I slowly but surely bring it to the door lock, and open the door.

The landlady of the apartment came in, she was of full build, short hair, and also blonde.

As long as I've known her, she's always been unhappy about something, she'll find any little thing to get to me.

"Well, pack your things and get lost!" — the hostess said angrily

"Give me 3 more days, I'll only have a paycheck in a few days!" — Sato said in an agitated voice

"Okay, I'll give you three days, if you don't pay, blame yourself." — Said the hostess, turned around and walked to the door with a businesslike step.

She slammed the door shut.

I took the book out from under the bed again, and flipping through the book with interest, I noticed an interesting ability.

It was called copying, but its way of learning is very complicated.

This book seems to be just created for children who dream of owning magic.

Each of us knows that magic exists only in cartoons and nowhere else.

I slowly scrolled through the pages to the very beginning.

So, the first page of the book.

*Chapter 1. Basic Magic*

Uh-huh, basic magic, interesting.

The first magic was water magic, it was very easy to learn.

I read the way to study it, and I was at a loss.

*1. The way, you must be proficient in the ancient language.*

Next, the page was empty.

After reading this, the book became hot, I threw it on the floor, the pages began to turn on their own, very quickly.

From the book, I heard a voice, it was not speaking in a language I understood.

And I felt a surge of strength in my body, it's so pleasant, like lying on hot springs.

And after a while, I fainted again.

I saw some yellow particles flying in the dark, they were so bright, if I had seen them in real life, I would have gone blind.
