Slay the God: Late Night Bookstore

late at night....

The moonlight has disappeared into the clouds, and only the lights in the city are still shining.

As time went by, the shops on the street had closed one after another, and it looked very deserted. There were only a few pedestrians on the street.

But on this street, there is a bookstore with its lights always on and a sign saying "Open" hanging on the door, which seems out of place in this already dark street.

The young man was lying on the counter in the bookstore, holding a book in his hand, reading quietly, turning the pages from time to time and laughing.

Even though the nearby shops had closed, the boy obviously didn't care. He was still reading the novel as if he had no concept of time.

The boy's name is Li Mingxuan, and he is a sophomore in high school.

Not far from the teenager, a boy was working hard on his homework at the desk.

"Why do children in your human world have to do homework? I don't understand! Shouldn't children have fun playing?"

The boy complained as he wrote, his young face full of dissatisfaction.

"Um, I don't know either. It seems that the original intention of homework was to punish students... Leader, if you are tired, take a rest."

Li Mingxuan looked at the boy and spoke cautiously, fearing that the boy would suddenly get angry.

It's not appropriate for a boy who looks like a child to be called a leader by a boy who looks like a teenager.

But Li Mingxuan knew very well that this handsome boy was more than he seemed.

This is a hidden boss!

His true identity was a messenger from the underworld, or so the boy said.

Li Mingxuan didn't believe it at first, but after seeing the boy using his ability, he was completely convinced.

As for why this big guy wanted to be a child, Li Mingxuan said he didn't know and didn't dare to ask more.

Of course, it’s not impossible to be a shota.

After all, it’s understandable that people with the ability like to act younger.

At least she's not a loli...

Of course, this bookstore is not as simple as it seems.

Late Night Bookstore...

As the name suggests, it is a bookstore that is only open late at night. Other shops have already closed, but the late-night bookstore has just started business.

But this is a bookstore that only welcomes special guests, not living people.

This world is not just populated by living people.

There is also a 'mystery' hidden in the city.

Only those who were mysteriously killed were considered special guests.

What Li Mingxuan has to do is naturally to "help the special guest to salvation".

It is called salvation, but in fact it just opens the door to the underworld to let special guests in.

Because the souls of people who died of natural causes will automatically enter the underworld, while those who are killed mysteriously will generally continue to stay in this world. Sending those who are killed mysteriously back to the underworld is what we, the messengers from the underworld, have to do.

These are the boy's exact words.

And every time Li Mingxuan sends a guest back to the underworld, his power will increase a little.

But send them back to the underworld.

It's actually quite tricky...

Because after Li Mingxuan sent the ghost to the underworld, the performance was counted on the boy...

The only benefit Li Mingxuan got was a slight increase in strength and a small reward.

And most of the good thing was the boy who was always reading.

After all, it is the duty of the underworld messenger to send ghosts back to the underworld.

Of course, to put it nicely, Li Mingxuan is the messenger from the underworld, but in fact he is the boy's subordinate.

To put it bluntly, he's just a wage earner!

It turns out that no matter where you are, there will always be hard-working workers.

At first, Li Mingxuan didn't know whether to live or die and challenged the boy to a duel...

Want to resist the persecution of the black-hearted boss

The result is being pressed to the ground and rubbed.

Li Mingxuan has been well behaved since then.

Ugh!

Life is so hard...

The boy's name was Li Haoran, and he chose this name himself, saying that it would be convenient to do something with this identity.

And Li Haoran's identity is Li Mingxuan's younger brother...

of course!

This is just a surface phenomenon...

Li Mingxuan basically has nothing to do during the day except going to school.

Due to the rapid development of the times, smartphones have become popular, and basically no one cares about many physical books anymore.

Occasionally there were a few guests, but they just came to take a look and left in a hurry.

So over time, we were too lazy to open the store during the day and basically only did business late at night.

Of course, if anyone has nothing to do in the bookstore, it can open for business.

As for rent and other expenses, Li Mingxuan basically doesn't have to worry about them.

Every time you save a deceased person, you will gain a little power and receive a reward.

Of course, the remuneration is definitely not a lot, but it is enough for basic living.

.....

As a glorious time traveler, it stands to reason that when you travel to another world, you should roll up your sleeves and get to work.

But Li Mingxuan was unlucky. He disappeared as soon as he came through.

Yes, just disappear.

When Li Mingxuan just came here, he found that his body suddenly disappeared.

When I came to my senses, I found myself at the Late Night Bookstore.

This was also his first meeting with Haoran.

That year, Li Mingxuan traveled through time and space to a body whose bone age was only six years old.

'Haoran' was the nickname Li Mingxuan gave to his boss, but because the leader had special hobbies, no one said anything.

At that time, Haoran told Li Mingxuan that he was dead. When he was about to save Li Mingxuan's soul, a divine power suddenly poured into Li Mingxuan's body and resurrected him on the spot.

Haoran was quite shocked at the time. He went out to check the situation and came back.

But after he came back, his face looked a little solemn. He originally wanted to erase Li Mingxuan's memory, but then he realized something, so he stopped and took Li Mingxuan under his command.

It just so happened that six-year-old Li Mingxuan had nowhere to go at that time, so he naturally stayed and became a worker.

Ten years have passed, Li Mingxuan has become a teenager, but Haoran is still the same.

However, considering Haoran's ability, Li Mingxuan naturally wouldn't say much.

Just be a worker peacefully.

Originally, Li Mingxuan didn't know that this was the world of slaying gods until yesterday when he went to school and heard their class teacher say that a special transfer student would be arriving tomorrow.

His name is Lin Qiye.

Li Mingxuan also suddenly understood why he was resurrected on the same spot.

It turned out that he was resurrected by the Mortal Realm used by Lin Qiye.

When he first saw Cangnan No. 2 Middle School, he just felt familiar and didn't pay much attention to it. Even though his classmates were Li Yifei and others, Li Mingxuan just felt that they sounded a little familiar. But when he heard Lin Qiye, he finally realized what was going on.

Li Mingxuan could only say good guy!

But considering my own situation, I feel relieved.

It doesn’t matter. I’ve given up.

Lie down, whatever.

Of course, even though we say that, we still have to live our lives as normal.

After all, if you want to live a good life...
