  Moving onto the third floor, I noticed a ge iaircase about halfway through. The walls were still like a cave, like every dungeon I had been in. Eve room was like a cave and the forest I was in led into a cave-like staircase.

  But halfway through, the walls and stairs turo be more like one found in a house, or building. Wooden and worn.

  I khat not every dungeon was like a cave, and there were ohat were like old buildings, but never had I heard of ohat switches part way through.

  An upper level like a forest to a cave lower was not rare, but one going from cave to anything other than a cave type was not heard of.

  As I dealt with this fusion, I finally made it to the third floor.

  And what I was met with was a massive library. I had spent a lot of time in libraries before, but this was nothing like the modern libraries.

  It seemed pulled from an old fantasy world, with a lot of books and shelves going all the way to the high ceilings. I could even see dders oacks to get the books from those high shelves.

  It even had two levels in the library. My staircase led me to the top floor and when I walked forward, I could see the bottom floor. And looking off to my sides, I could see that the library went far into both dires.

  A library much rger than any I had ever eve of.

  And the dungeo appeared in front of me.

  Dungeo - Novice’s Mastery Dungeon - Sub-Quest 3

  Test of Knowledge Gathering

  Objective - Find the key to the fourth floor

  I had no clue where to start with this quest.

  ?

  Well, most of the books had only illegible words inside, and I have found nothing to help me figure out the way to the floor.

  I had picked books at random, and opehem, only to find the writing that I had seen from any other dungeon. This meant that it ossible that I could decipher them iure, but I have no clue where to start with that.

  Deg to save some of this, I take pictures of some of the pages and move on to the book shelf. Over and ain.

  …

  ‘It wasn’t foreseen in any way, it just happened one day’

  I read this in a book.

  About 5 shelves after the first one I checked.

  ‘The sky broke open and desding on our world were monsters from the abyss.’

  I had no clue what it was talking about, but from what I glea was either a history book, or a fantasy novel.

  If it was a history book, then it was from another world.

  Other worlds were hypothesized even before the first outbreak, but with the appearanagic, those theories ged a lot. The most accepted theory about them is that the dungeons inate from another world.

  I tio read parts of the book, but it just tinued in the same fashion. The monsters came from this cra the sky and pletely destroyed the world. It seems that the world had magid levels and the status already, but they stood no ce against the monsters ing.

  Within a few months, the totality of the world was destroyed.

  When I checked the rest of the books on the shelf, they all told simir stories, but with different ces. The books were all bound in different ways. Some were diarias, some stories, and others more like textbooks speaking of the events.

  It was strange reading these things, but it all made seo me. These were the fates of other worlds I was reading.

  It didn’t make sense. Why was I being showhings? Why was this hidden from the world? I had no clue what to do moving forward.

  Was this going to happen to earth?

  My mind spined about all of this, but I noticed something about the shelf while I was ed about what I read.

  The shelf was disanized.

  I could see a clear amount of colors on the spine of the books.

  While thinking about this, I moved the books around, trying to figure out the right pces.

  And when I finished, a panel on the wall moved and I found a new book on the inside of a hidden et.

  I picked up the book, this oh an legable title.

  ‘How worlds end’

  When I flipped through the book, I read things about the general idea of the steps towards the end of the world detailed in these books. The ideas that lead to the appearance of the cra the sky, how no matter what, and defense will eventually fall.

  And about those left standing after the world ends.

  It's all cryptid strange, but I realize that this information is important, not just to me, but the whole world.

  I take the book, and move around the library more.

  Eventually I found more books that I read. Instead of talking about the end of the world, it tells of the beginning of the world.

  All worlds are created by a god, who bestows upon their worlds power, or knowledge. I read about worlds that were given teology, ic or nothing. All of them seem somewhat familiar, and I figured it out eventually.

  These are the same worlds that I read about the endings earlier.

  These also take the form of several different forms as well. Stific papers, or scripture or stories again.

  I also find that this bookshelf is also disanized.

  After fixing it again, I found another hidden book.

  ‘How worlds start’

  This oalks about how worlds are made, the different gods that are there. There are only two that are needed apparently, one of creation and one of death. The ods that are there form what kind of world there will be.

  This seems strange again, and I take the book once more.

  Moving through the rest of the library, I find one more shelf that is disanized and with books I read.

  These books are the most strahere is no on thread among them. I find books talking about normal sce, or novels, or hundreds of other things. Fi, non fi, history, sature. Nothing was not here.

  When I fix the shelf, I once again find a new book.

  ‘How worlds live’

  It suddenly makes sehese books o shelf are from the world. They are the stories, or what happehere, uo the end inning.

  I take this book as well.

  I had found the door to the floor while I was looking around the library, and I know how to open the floor.

  The door was otom floor, and in front of it, there was three les.

  ON them, in order, I pce the three books.

  …

  …

  “Um, did I do it wrong?” I say, fused.

  I walk up to the door and notice that there is a very clear keyhole on the door.

  Then I remember the goal of this floor.

  “Is there a literal key? Where the hell is it?”

  ?

  It takes me a little to find it.

  On some random table by one of the bookshelves was a book, that was not on a shelf.

  I don’t think I ever checked it, and I probably walked by it a bunch of times.

  But when I ope, I found the inside of the book cut out and inside was a key.

  I take it back over to the door otom floor.

  I pce it in the door and turn.

  You Have Achieved araordinary Pret withirial of Knowledge Gathering

  You found all hidden knowledge

  You have achieved a secret ending

  “Oh, so the books were the secret ending, was I not meant to read them yet”

  At the end of the message was the bearer of creation note again, and It fuses me still, even more now.

  Then the rewards page pops up.

  Reward - 1x Skill Book(Vision Awareness)

  Secret Reward - 1x Broken Piece

  The book appears again, another skill to add ter.

  And the broken Piece fits together with the st 2. Based on this, there should only be one piece left.

  Before I fot, I turned back around to pick up the books again. I pced them inside of my item box and moved on, to the fourth floor.
