[BOOK 3] I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot (BL)

11.98 First Green Star - Punishment World: 'Labyrinth - The Creepy Clown' (28)

Morning.

At the town library.

Ben was riding a book with a low voice, "Your hair is winter fire..."

While he was in the middle of his reading the librarian approached him and placed a book near him and knocked on the table to get his attention.

Knock. Knock.

The librarian asked, "Isn't it summer vacation? I think you should also be on the break with the book, dear."

Ben looked out of the window and saw Bill and his friend passing through the road while on their bike. He looks a bit envious yet keeps his face cold.

"I like it here," said Ben as he moved away from his gaze from the window.

The library says to him once again, "A boy should be spending his summer with friends."

"My book, please," said Ben.

The librarian gave up and just gave him the book he requested then left to return to her own table.

Ben started reading the books about the history of the town he was in. All significant events were printed and recorded inside the book. The contents of the books showed more photos in black and white versions.

As he kept flipping through the pages of the books, Ben noticed something weird among the black and white photos. Hidden within those photos are weird photos of the clown hidden among the crowd which extremely creepy him out as if the clown itself is about to come out of the book.

Ben was startled as he closed his books as he saw the face of the clown getting closer in the photo.

Bam!

"What the hell was that!?" mumbled Ben in fright.

Ben could feel his heart beating so fast as he closed the book in tension. Then he suddenly felt something was looking at him then when he turned around he saw a floating red balloon moving towards the exit of the library.

It was such an interesting sight that made Ben follow the red balloon out of the library.

But by the time he had gotten out of the library, the balloon had disappeared, and instead, it was replaced by a collector badge Ben loves the most. The badges were left in areas where he could see them at first sight.

Despite his hands getting itchy at the presence of such a collector item, Ben didn't dare to pick the badges as it felt weird it was left in the hallway as if showing a certain way or guiding him towards a direction.

Instead, he went in the direction he was being guided upon following the traces of the badges. In the end, he reached the inventory location where the library keeps records of everything regarding the story. It is a room filled with rows of metal cabinets and the atmosphere inside this room is a bit murky and dimmed-lighted place.

Ben peek inside the room and the dim lights and quietness of the room made the place eerie. Plus the lighting inside the room was old and flickering lights inside made it worse. It made Ben so uncomfortable.

"The Inventory room? This place is eerie~"

Just as he was about to leave the creepy room, the sound of footsteps came from behind him. From the staircase, he had walked down too. The inventory room is located on a lower floor which is why the room was a bit dim and had fewer people in it.

Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap.

As Ben turned around, what welcomed him wasn't an angry librarian but instead a headless soldier. A bit similar to the men's uniform on those black and white photos in that historical book he had read about this town.
