Chapter 643: Chapter 488: Discovery of the Hikikomori NPC
Splash, he flipped open the book "Giant War."
Hava’s gaze immediately lingered on the very beginning of the story.
"Cold, trembling..."
Huh? What an opening line.
His eyes moved down, continuing to read. The narrative unfolded from a first-person perspective, recounting a journey through many events, such as the emergence of the Blood Clan, the great Melulan, and so on.
These details held no special allure for Hava; the existence of many races, one such race that fed on blood didn’t seem surprising, especially when there were others that could only survive by eating human brains, even more arrogant and wild than the Blood Clan, yet they still lived well.
When he read about the war between the Undead and the Giants, his expression finally changed.
The mighty ’Giant’ Sekapus, that nearly destructive, terrifying war storm that ravaged half the kingdom, the Undead mounts that blotted out the sky, and the Undead’s relentless, righteous roars.
There was definitely some artistic embellishment in the book, but, with Hava’s superficial understanding of the Undead, they must have truly been able to charge fearlessly and courageously into battle.
The densely-packed text on every page gradually drew Hava in; he became immersed in the relentless sacrifices and assaults of the battle.
Unconsciously, he had turned to the last page, where there was an exquisitely detailed illustration, rendered with a sense of linework that seemed to explode with strength from the canvas—an artistic skill he had never seen in anyone else in this world.
It depicted a bare-chested, muscular deity standing before countless Undead, who were roaring and surging forward relentlessly.
If one looked closely, they would find burning forests in the background, mountains of corpses, and a ravaged earth with craters.
"Sekapus!"
Hava was somewhat excited.
He liked this book "Giant War," although the story ended with the powerful Undead and a mysterious "Ordinary Warrior." Just called an Ordinary Warrior, Hava didn’t understand why such a strong being, who could barely fight against deities, was named so.
Yet he was certain of the book’s truthfulness.
Victors like to denigrate their enemies, manipulate history, and place themselves on the side of absolute justice and power.
But in this book, the Undead admit they went to any lengths for victory and also acknowledged that Sekapus was an enemy they couldn’t defeat despite their best efforts.
"Giants, are there deities called Giants?" Hava couldn’t help but ponder in his mind.
The answer was no.
Magic Land had never seen a "Giant" deity; many deities had massive bodies, but they were known by other titles.
And he held a dismissive attitude toward the "deities" of the Material Plane.
They were only Evil Gods, belonging to some insignificant, obscure churches, spreading twisted beliefs, and deceiving some mentally troubled Believers.
True strong beings should be like Northern Lord Duke Hein, a deity and a duke, a composite identity that established his uniqueness. In Northern Magic Land, whether a deity or a lord, both must bow their noble heads to him.
Hava calmed his heart and then picked up another book.
This time he wanted to see "The Battle for the Golden Throne."
The book didn’t have much text, but it was rich in illustrations. The story’s protagonist was a man named Lind Armand, including his love and hatred with Rania, Mico, Doris, Wen Riven, Esha, and others.
It was written as if the author was really hiding under the bed.
And there were matching illustrations too.
The most favorable impression in the book for Hava was of Rania because she was the legitimate heiress of the Kingdom; next was Ms. Esha, who came from Magic Land, gentle and full of wisdom.
His least favorite was Wen Riven because he was a fallen Angel.
Before he knew it, he flipped to the illustrations at the back.
"Ms. Esha is a Troll?"
Hava’s dao heart nearly shattered.
And on the last page, it was written: "For the extended edition, please move to the group, @SilkWhiteAunt."
Reluctantly, he put the book down and his gaze shifted to another.
Like this, one after another, he flipped through them fast.
But there was always the prompt "To Be Continued."
It made him scratch his head and ears.
When he came back to his senses, he had read through all the parts that interested him and had also come to understand everything that happened on the "Shilu Continent."
He had yet to look at the books from the other two continents.
Hava went downstairs, and as he passed the ground floor again, his eyes lingered on the shelf.
Many things that he did not recognize before, after reading the books and illustrations, Hava could now match them one by one.
Like the strange round medallions with paintings, including the Black Knight, Rania, Melulan, Sekapus, the Prince of Dual Swords, and so on.
"I want to try my luck."
Hava said to the drowsy young girl at the counter.
"Ah? Ah, yes! Oh, you want to draw a prize, over here."
"I don’t have money, how can I exchange it?"
"Over there’s a recycling market, or you can sell unwanted items at various shops in the city; for armor, go to the equipment shop, for weapons to the Blacksmith, for food to the tavern, for Magic Potion to the Magic Potion Shop. If you’re confident in your items, you can also auction them or set up a stall."
