You step into an old bookstore filled with the smell of paper and dust. You love exploring bookstores like this, looking for hidden treasures among the crowded bookshelves.

Today, you found an old book hidden behind a bookcase. Curious, you pulled it out, and unexpectedly, the bookcase opened, revealing an empty room behind it.

In the middle of the room, lay another old book. You took it carefully, and curiosity gnawed at you even more. You buy it and take it home.

When you got home, you opened the book excitedly. The pages are yellow and brittle, and the writing is almost illegible.

When you turn the book again, the pages begin to shine with a bright light. You flinched back in surprise, and suddenly, a man appeared from inside the book.

The man was tall and handsome, with jet black hair and piercing blue eyes. He wore ancient clothes made of silk and velvet.

He kneels before you and bows his head. "Thank you for saving me," he says in a deep, authoritative voice.

You're still confused about what happened. "Who are you?" you ask in a trembling voice. "I am Prince Albert El Axfranso from the Aethel Kingdom," he answered. "I was cursed by King Maldred from the Veridian Kingdom because of a grudge."

He tells you his story. King Maldred was jealous of the wealth and prosperity of the Kingdom of Aethel, and he wanted to destroy it. He used evil magic to lock Prince Akbert inside the book for centuries.
