-December 2020-
"What book did you just tell me to get?", I (Ky) grumbled, looking up at the books lining the walls above my head.
"6th grade math textbook, volume 1!", T.Hai replied, his voice a bit irritable.
"Even that makes me angry!", I pouted, took the book that Hai asked for, and returned to the study table in our library.
"You don't?", T.Hai replied angrily.
"Okay, you two stop it! Study for the final exam, and also let Ky that the homeroom teacher told us to tutor.", Truong said.
"But why us!?", T.Hai said.
"Basically, it's 'The same classmate', there are four people at a table, so H. Anh also has to go along.", Truong pointed to H. Anh, who was sitting next to him.
"Oh, come on, it's not so bad…", H.Anh comforted T.Hai.
"It's not bad, just extremely bad, super bad, so bad there's nothing to say, worst in the world, so bad that no one can stand it, even a 10-year-old child would laugh at it...", Truong lamented and face stroke.
"So what ? You and I are both 11 years old...", I replied.
"Truong, quickly say 'That's a good move, let me go again', let's go!!!", H. Anh approached Truong and teased.
"Okay, let's start studying!", Truong gently pushed H. Anh away, opened the math book and began instructing me to study.
2 hours later…
"Finally finished reviewing the exercises on Symmetry of plane shapes, let me rest a bit...", I lay down on the table, complaining of fatigue.
"Okay...", Truong said, adjusting his glasses, a few girls "looked" at Truong's face, smiled and talked to each other and then ran away.
"Yayyyyy…", I shouted happily.
"But don't leave the library!", T.Hai said, and his head was pointing towards a tall and pretty upperclassman (along with H.Anh).
"Eh…", I sighed.
I pouted, skimmed through the books displayed on the shelves, and touched them with my fingers. A leather-bound book caught my attention. I took that book off the shelf, the cover read "Special Grimoire: Black Magic". I was bewildered, thinking, Does this genuine black leather book have content for children? The cover is 50×30 cm, I have never seen a book cover like this, then my curiosity increased, stimulating me to turn the first page of the book. A magic circle with green light appeared below my feet, then I was lifted into the air. I tried to get out of the magic circle, V.Minh, one of my classmates, promptly ran to me and pulled me out of the terrible suction of that strange magic circle (He held his glasses with one hand). your nearsightedness to avoid being attracted to your nearsighted glasses). H.Anh, T.Hai and Truong promptly ran over and witnessed a magical scene like a Fantasy movie before their eyes. They were stunned by what they had experienced.
"What the fuck just happened?", I shouted.
"Shhhhh…in the library, please be quiet.", V.Minh put his index finger on my mouth to signal.
"I see, I'm not blind!", V.Minh continued.
"Okay.", I pushed V.Minh's hand away.
"Everyone has seen it. It's so...magical...", Truong, still with that surprise, spoke in a low voice.
"I have to go post it online...", H. He took out his phone but T. Hai stopped him.
"No, no, no, just leave it as it is. Let's pretend we haven't seen anything.", T.Hai excitedly put the book back in its original position.
"Anyway, we should report it to the teachers.", Truong replied calmly.
"OK, now take this book to the teachers and tell us what we just witnessed.", V. Minh said, giving the book to Truong.
Truong squinted his eyes, took the book and left the library.
Five minutes later, he came back.
"Yeah, you're right, the teachers don't believe it!", Truong.
"You know how to record the video, right?", I said.
"The teachers will tell us to do CGI again.", T.Hai replied.
"Then stop it.", H. Anh waved his hand.
"So how to handle this pile of books?", V. Minh said.
"Pile of books? There's only one book?", I said, looking up at the books next to me, "Are you kidding???"
"22 similar books…", Q.Minh, the person who had just arrived and was T.Hai's friend, exclaimed.
"Let's see, a book of Fire Magic, Necromancy, Rune Magic, Metal Magic, Electric Magic, Light Magic, Earth Magic, Wood Magic, Ice Magic, Poison Magic, Magic Wind, Healing Magic, Summoning Magic, Illusion Magic, Crystal Magic, Sound Magic, Water Magic…so many.", H. He pointed to the books.
"Take it all?", Dat excitedly turned to us.
"No, I'm going home to play games. The last 12 days of studying for Ky's final exam are very tiring...", T.Hai left immediately after.
"I'm coming too.", Truong said and left immediately afterwards.
"Goodbye everyone.", H. He waved his hand and left, running after Truong, "Truong, wait for me."
The library became silent. The remaining four looked at each other.
"I'll take the book Summoning Magic, Illusion Magic, Crystal Magic and Sound Magic.", Q.Minh took out four books and left immediately after.
The library became silent again. The remaining three looked at each other again.
"So, are you planning to get anything?", Dat asked.
"I'll take the book Light Magic, Ice Magic and Dark Magic.", I said and took out four books, and also left the library, not forgetting to take the pile of books I brought with me.
V.Minh and Dat, a nerd and a femboy, silently watched everyone leave.
"I also took a few books…", Dat took three books, Healing Magic, Water Magic and Light Magic, and like the others, left immediately after.
V.Minh didn't say anything, took four books: Fire Magic, Black Magic, Rune Magic and Necromancy and left the library, a place no one wanted to go to.
Three days later, Truong went to the library and took away three books: Metal Magic, Electric Magic and Light Magic.
Two days later, T.Hai went there and took three books: Poison Magic, Wind Magic and Fire Magic.
Two days later, H. Anh also came, and also secretly took away three books: Earth Magic, Wood Magic and Rune Magic.
And since then, not even the town librarian has discovered anything strange...
