In this tale, Adam is an unfortunate child who has grown up in the shadows of his civilization, a society where slavery takes an unusual and suffocating form: the library. To earn the right to freedom, the inhabitants of this world, known as 'librarians,' must learn to read and master one of the countless languages that fill the endless floors of the infinite library, a skill that has become the only passport to emancipation and the key that unlocks the doors of freedom. Our protagonist, a brave and determined child, becomes the unexpected hero of this story. His journey begins with the determination to rescue his father from the chains that bind him to the library. As he ventures into this world filled with dangers and challenges, he embarks on an odyssey to master the language, the only path to his longed-for goal of liberation.

A man from Earth, just an average Joe you passed by on the street. He reincarnates into a fantasy world, but the guy has read and watched fantasy stories before... lots of them, and so he makes the stories his spirit guide. This is his story in a western style cultivation-ish world. A world where dog eats dog. Where another, much larger dog, is always lurking around the corner to eat the survivor. Warning: The protagonist has negative views about heroes and villains, good and evil. He isn't too smart, alien way of thinking, and questionable moral. Depending on your point of view, he's rather crazy. You have been warned. Author note:Hello everyone, this is my first novel and English is not my native language please forgive the grammar. I wish to improve my craft so if you are willing to add criticisms or comments, it would be much appreciated. I hope you enjoy my story. The genre is intended for young-adult The cover isn't mine and I will take it down if the owner wished it.
