Time passed slowly, too slowly, but it passed. Adam was 17 years old, and today he had finished reading all 100 pages. His companions had only reached 90. These last pages are very complicated for everyone. It is normal for a student to obtain his black robe between the ages of 25-30, so Adam's pace was abnormally fast.

But it was also no surprise to Adam that he made it so quickly to 100 pages. In short, he did nothing but study the language: he was stoning his entire fortune on private tutors. It would seem that he didn't care about the characters anymore: his only goal was to obtain the black robe right now.

In these two years or so, Adam had not lived another adventure and the sheep had not yet appeared. But according to the old man with no eyes, the sheep would take 5 years to check the contents of the suitcase so that Adam could complete the favor.

As Adam guessed: the bomb didn't exist and his godfather had lied to him. However, Adam did not feel upset about that, in these two years he learned that his godfather only wanted him to survive everything and the others did not matter to him.

But surviving was not living well, and Adam knew that more than anyone. These two years of studying like a madman had cost him all of his youth. But his godfather had been clear: from Adam's 20 years any day after those dates he would have to leave without or with a black robe.

That was Adam's 16th birthday gift from his godfather: learning that the upper, middle, and lower denizens would be displaced from their homes by other librarians.

Therefore, a war was approaching in order to avoid being displaced. Studying now was much easier than in the war, so Adam had to take advantage of this opportunity in exchange for sacrificing his youth.

Once he had the black robe, Adam would look for his father and they would go together to other safer floors. Adam prayed that seeing him in the black robe would have a positive enough effect on his father to bring some of his sanity back. According to his godfather, a librarian war was much more violent and chaotic than a shelf war, so it was a very bad idea to get caught in the middle.

Right now, Adam was celebrating his 100th page, he still hadn't gone to school for the official ceremony and had decided to skip today's class. His godfather had told him that he had to talk to a specific bookshelf on this day, and he could only do it on that day.

Apparently the shelf conditions were to reach 100 pages with this language on the middle floor. With such specific conditions, the reward should be very good, especially considering that one had to sacrifice more than 7 years of his life to learn a language up to this point.

Adam was quite excited, it was the first time in so many years that his godfather told him a secret, so he was very excited to know what he would receive in exchange for achieving the riddle on this shelf.
