For the past two hours, I’ve been walking around the town looking up for information as to where I am and how do I get back to my world. From what I can remember instead of going straight home from school I’ve heard about a rumor circulating on the school about an old bookstore just two blocks away from school. As a bookworm, I was curious and instantly went to the shop after the school ended.
Ten minutes later I finally arrived at the store. The rumors were true the front of the shop looked like it wasn’t well maintained or you could say it was close to being called a run-down house, as I slowly step inside the shop surprisingly it was clean and well organized. I look around and somehow saw a silhouette at the next room and slowly coming into me.
“Welcome young one, It’s been a long time seeing people going in my shop especially for a young guy like you so what can I do for you?” said by an old looking guy.
His clothes were tattered and I could smell something weird from him and it looked like he hasn’t bathed in weeks while greeting me he kept moving some books from one place to another. Since I was curious I grabbed some books to look up to some of the titles it was.

“The Lost Kingdom”
“Learn how to ABC” what seriously?
“The Wandering King” this looks interesting I muttered to myself.
“How much for this book?” I asked the old man while lightly rubbing the book.
“Sorry young man but those books are not for sale. Instead, you can read it for free in here just head to the next room and find yourself some table” Said by the old man while blowing some dust away from another book.
I was kinda sad when I heard that the book wasn’t for sale, but then he said I could read it for free. So I headed straight away to the next room and could see more books that looked like it hasn’t been touched for years. I could see spider webs on every corner inside the room. The way the room was design it felt like I was inside of some Medieval theme houses it looked really different from outside.
“Hmmm looks like the book finally chose a King” muttered by the old man while smirking.
After a continues struggle of tidying up the table I sat comfortably and scanned the first page of the book, instead of an English language it was different it looked like an ancient writing and seconds later the writings were glowing yellow as I look at both at my hands it was slowly disappearing while in panic I kept yelling to the old man from another room to help me but instead the old man came at the door and said.
"Welcome to the World of Astraea"
