《The Lost Characters [Vanilla Dark Fantasy]》076

Adam looked at the white rabbit; the inscription on the heart held by the rabbit had changed and now read: 'Adam'
The bookshelf didn't talk about it anymore after saying that. And he only spoke to ask Adam for directions about the design and make some measurements, he seemed less sad and somewhat happy while working as an eye doctor, it seemed that this was his whim more than being a merchant.
Adam didn't know if it was because of his karma or because the bookshelf was an honest dealer, but the bookshelf ended up helping him design the glasses.
With great dexterity, some glasses were formed on the work table. When he finally finished, Adam could see his glasses, they were very similar to the ones that used to be seen on these floors: his body was made of gold, and he used two black crystals as lenses that hid Adam's eyes. The glasses had the phrase: 'Adam' engraved on one of their temples.
When he finished making them, the pebble person told him:
—These are your glasses, no one else will see with them. If you tell even one librarian about my shop, your eyes will be devoured by the glasses.
—Hey? But that wasn't part of the deal—Adam complained, very annoyed.
—It's a magical artifact, Adam—the person with pebbles replied, looking at him sadly—If you read a magical book and divulge its contents, the same thing happens. The secret is one of the most useful and simple conditions, it is rare not to see it applied in a magic item.
Adam didn't understand what he meant by the latter, but he took the glasses suspiciously, he didn't know if he should or put them on, but he had already paid for them, so he tried it on.
Adam put it on and felt the effects. The ground was completely white and endless overlapping footprints could be seen. However, the white floor did not bother Adam. In fact, he felt that his eye could catch fire, and it wouldn't bother him anyway, that was the effect of not being able to have the blindness activate.

—I don't see any clues— Adam said, looking at the pebble person for a long time.
—What's a clue? Looking for something that requires them?—The pebbled person answered looking at Adam looking around at his shop—You have to learn how to use them. Little by little you will learn its secrets.
Adam understood the point, it seemed that he didn't quite understand how to use them, the only thing he felt useful at the moment was the anti-blindness effect, if the white floor with overlapping footprints wasn't there he would be tiring his eyes all the time.
Seeing that Adam had already tried on his glasses, the pebble person began to unravel, his pebbles falling on the ground until he ended up disappearing.
Seeing that he already had what he was looking for, Adam left the store with his glasses, still not quite used to the white floor from the librarian's footsteps. But over time he would learn to live with these new colors.
Now Adam had to go to school, he was too late to buy the general knowledge books about good karma today.
The boy had not yet made the official celebration for having reached 100 pages, although his companions had not achieved the same, he had to continue advancing as quickly as possible according to the plans of his godfather and according to his own goals and his future ambitions.
Although, at 17 years old, Adam still didn't quite know what to do after getting the black robe from him, but he was still too early to think about such matters.

Sixth Finger
Year 506. The last human empire surrenders to the Great Majin Lord and joins his cause. As the continent in its entirety is submitted to the absolute rule of an undead stories arise of inhuman creatures that led his majesty's armies to terrifying success. While the demon lord grasps the entire world in his hand, generals and comrades eleven of his most loyal and trusted serve as the extension of his will and power. Common world knows these beings only by their position's names. Fingers. Goblins goblins goblins... I hate those pesky creatures. Not smart enough to talk, but intelligent enough to kill. Well. In this world of madness where blood spills left and right fantasy creatures run rampart alongside crazed devotees of long dead gods all meanwhile the frickin Demon Lord is slowly gaining power in order to take over the world precisely without causing its immediate collapse, our little Gob will have quite a chance to find true strength and maybe even understand why humans often do stupid things for this weird word that starts with the letter "L". Who knows, maybe he will even get a better name than Gob in the process... The story is posted daily in short chapters (from 900 to 2000 words per chapter) The story is NOT an Isekai. It's a high fantasy story with isekai element's at best (Majin lord is a Majin after all). I spent some time to create a custom, magic system I hope to properly explore together with you my dear reader. So what are you doing? Go read those early chapters! The story is said to only get better after you drink it... I mean read it. Seriously. After 15 chapters you won't stop. I just feel like pointing something out. I never read "The Iron Teeth: A Goblin's Tale" which seems to be the first thing my fiction will be compared to... P.S. Cover artwork was made by my very own me (hurray me!) PM if you want something painted (no promises). I sometimes lurk in RR discord.
