Ascendance of a Bookworm

Reino Honsu (originally Soura), 22 years old.

I like books. Love it.

I love you more than three meals.

I like to touch someone's knowledge through typography, and I like to touch paranoia. It also makes my mind dance and my face nibble unexpectedly to follow the author's thoughts from there.

When you read a book with all sorts of knowledge in one book, you feel like you've gained so much, and you don't think it's intoxicating to see a world you've never seen with this eye through a photo album lined up in a bookstore or library, as the world seems to expand?

Even foreign old stories are interesting to catch glimpses of different times, different national customs, and if you have a history in all areas and tie it together, it's always a matter of forgetting time.

Psychology, religion, history, geography, pedagogy, folklore, mathematics, physics, geology, chemistry, biology, art, physical education, language, stories… I love a book from the bottom of my heart that is well packed with the accumulated knowledge of mankind.

And a thick encyclopedia.

A whole collection of literature, without missing a single book,

Even the seemingly simplistic cover and the contents are highly specialized magazines.

Colorful magazines with lots of photos are also

A novel with many small difficult rhetoric is also

The contents are thin but well sold light novels are also

Big picture books for kids, too.

Cartoons that have become the proud culture of Japan are also

Even amateur made peer magazines.

If you open the page with Parali, it will be a beautiful drink that will intoxicate me.

Then I like the unique slightly smelly or dusty smell of old books in the library where old books from the library are collected. I inhale slowly, and I get so bored that there's just an old book there that I'm likely to get to the top of it.

Of course, I can't wait to smell the new paper and ink. I can just have fun thinking about what's written there, new knowledge.

I want to live my life surrounded by books.

I want to spend the rest of my life in a library built to keep the sunlight from damaging the book, but ventilated, if I can.

By spending as much time as I can reading a book, I can't let go of the book to forget my meal and get scolded, trying to be told that my skin is blue and pale, and that I'm not healthy because of lack of exercise.

If I'm going to die anyway, I want to die buried in a book. I think how happier it is to die buried in a book on a bed than to hang out on a tatami.

- No, not exactly, I thought.

Actually, me!

Earlier on, a major earthquake buried me in a book and I died!

Yeah, exactly, as you wish, but something?

Though it was my main hope, I honestly don't think thank God because I qualified as a secretary and had just decided to get a job in a college library in these days of difficulty getting a job.

God, please.

If possible, let me reincarnate.

I haven't read enough yet.

Even the next raw, I want to read the book.

Then I want to be a librarian.

I want to spend the whole day surrounded by books.

Of course, the clerk's job is not to read books. If I worked, I wouldn't be able to read a book. I know.

But you've been surrounded by books for far longer than any other job. Just being surrounded by books, something happy.

You just suck in the smell of paper and ink, you know what it's like, for everyone, right?

If you look back a little bit on history, you'd be absolutely mindful that the intelligent work that only humans do to leave letters to transmit knowledge has long been done, wouldn't you?

If you can read the book, that's fine.

Come on, God. When you know my wish, let me reincarnate you.

You're reborn, and you read books again.
