A Cliché Multiverse Story Chapter 17

[–Saya Takagi: Affection +45]
That was way more than I expected. I checked Saya's pulse and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Whew, made it just in time."
I whispered and eyed the ugly undead approaching despite the football-sized hole in its chest.
It was the strongest undead I came across today, and more importantly, it was about to kill the beautiful tsundere, Saya.
After listening to her scream, I rushed here expecting the scene where Saya used that drill to kill the zombie, then why the hell did it come to this!?
Why were these two idiots not on the roof? Why was Saya here with them instead of being with fatty Kohta, who I found almost getting his ass eaten by another zombie?
The virus's initial outbreak and necromancy effect should be the same, no?
Was this the so-called butterfly effect? My innocent former self changed this whole show with sheer suaveness?
"Aimi, keep it busy for a while."
Aimi nodded and charged at the undead while I admired the girl unconscious in my hands.
Even in sleep, she oozed the presence of a tsundere.
'Cute and sexy…'
In the face of death, she awakened ferocious magic, befitting her fiery personality. It made even a High-human like me green in envy.
Is this the so-called Mana exhaustion?
(Yes, my love. This girl overused her mana. But with enough training, she will get better than controlling the output to conserve her mana.)
I shook my head to clear the excessive rage and turned my gaze.
Hisashi Igou groaned as his undead body crawled toward us. This undead most likely crushed his spine. He got the ending he most feared, huh!
I slid my hands under Saya's knees and picked her up in the legendary princess carry!
*Crunch*

The wooden sword crushed the skull of Hisashi.
"F."
I paid my respects to the friend-cum-enemy of Komuro and placed the sleeping princess into the trusted hands of Shiori.
""Takagi!""
Rei and Komuro rushed at their childhood friend, which I ignored.
"Look after her and Shizu-nee san, treat her wounds. I'll go finish it off."
Not waiting for their reply, I darted forward and stopped behind the undead, trying its hardest to hit Aimi.
Aimi could kill it even in her sleep.
(I can destroy the world in my sleep.)
'No, girl, you don't! I'll fuck you silly when I sleep tonight.'
(I-I'm prepared.)
Suppressing my anticipation, I kicked the ground and raised my hands equipped with frost bead daggers.
"Frigid flash."
My hands moved on their own will, and the daggers danced elegantly as they slashed at its back of the head in turns, six hits at the same spot. The thick skull grew weaker and weaker. I held up the dagger in reverse grip and performed the final flash.
*Crack!*
With an audible crack, the skull broke open. I swiftly tilted my head to avoid the blood spraying from the wound, and my feet hit the ground.
This guy was a real musclehead.
This active skill consumed a bit of my stamina. Did that all happened in a real second?
(It happened in nine-tenth of a second.)
Well, I didn't need to use the skill. However, I needed battle experience, or I would have to rely on Aimi all the time. It wasn't something I wished after getting the system.
I wanted to get stronger and fuck the real body of Klyscha!
(Hehe~)
*Thud!*
The ground shook when the dumb undead collapsed.
*Ding!*

Level 6, huh. That's why it wrecked the newbie magician's ass.
*Ding!*
[–Saeko Busujima: Affection +25]
[–Shiori Busujima: Affection+10]
Nice! The sadistic onee-san enjoyed my show of violence. Why are their affection points linked? There must be an intriguing backstory here that I must discover.
That's in the future, for now, my throat is dry.
"Asahi-sama."
I grasped the bottle near my face and gulped down the cold water. With my thirst quenched, I gave a smile to Aimi.
"Thanks a lot."
My affection points for her increased by 20 just now.
*Ding!*
[–Aimi Akane: Affection +2]
Rei already started to cry in Komuro's arms. Kohta and Kazu Ishii conversing while sneaking glances at me.
Guys, don't go that route. I won't mind being friends, anything more than that is a no!
Saeko gazed my way with a smile while Shiori helped Shizuka in dressing up the wounds of Saya.
I wouldn't be surprised if my angelic onee-chan awakened the holy magic.
"Let's rest in the staff room for a while." I glanced at the corpse of Hisashi. "We don't have time to mourn the dead now."
My high charm worked like a flawlessly here.
Rei reluctantly nodded. Sigh, I never hated this girl, doesn't mean I liked her. Komuro got to be with her, and that's all that matters to me.
After the treatment ended, we all took shelter in the staff room, the place with books, chairs, tables, and a plasma television mounted on an on the wall.
Komuro and Kohta blocked the door with a table. Nice! You guys aren't so useless after all.
I swept the books on the table in the center, which got a surprising reaction from everyone.
"We'll leave after Takagi wakes up, just rest in the meantime."
*Ding!*
[—Saeko Busujima: Affection +5]
[—Shiori Busujima: Affection+3]
Nodding, I walked over to the window and examined the sight outside. The smoke rising in the distance, the undead roaming on school grounds, and lastly, the parking area comprising the buses and cars.
I shook my head, grabbed the chair held by Aimi, and rested my exhausted ass.
I could proudly proclaim being a young master wasn't all good. I never worked this much even if it was for a milf, but here I am working on saving asses.
"Aa-kun, tell me where did you get those weapons? How can you be so good at using them?"
I glanced at Shizuka, who leaned toward me with a stern expression, but the hint of worry on face didn't escape my eyes. The others in the room turned toward me as if waiting for my answer.
It appears frigid flash skill was slightly out of the norms for them.
What bullshit should I feed these guys?
Then a plot of a particular novel flashed in my mind, lifting my lips in a wild grin...

Ars Magica
Our vision comes back into focus. Our eyes, while being able to perceive the immediate surroundings, still leave us with our minds uncomprehending towards what is actually occurring. Sure, there are definitive things that we can focus on, like the fact that we're either out upon the open sea or the open ocean, there not being much of a difference with no land in sight, as well as the fact that we appear to be upon a haphazardly constructed metal boat, whose seams are barely able to keep a hold of themselves in the crashing waves. However, that does not let us understand what exactly is causing the waves in the first place. If we were to rewind time, we'd find ourselves upon a calm sea under a peaceful sky with the only difference, being a small whirlpool that would be the precursor towards this uproar around the boat. Lightning flashes in the sky, with no clouds being near, and anyone actually manning the boat has either died towards the cause of the smashing tides in the first place, or are fighting amongst the flashes of lightning, all while trying not to become devoured, demolished, and utterly decimated by the beast roiling in the whirling waves. To better understand exactly what is happening here, there is one singular event that needs to be understood, that needs to be explained, and that is the arrival of a creature named Dave. Stepping back from current events and going towards this creature's first appearance in the world, we begin to hear the sound of water slowly dripping across rocky ground. The cavern is utterly silent except for this one constant, its cause feeding channels downwards, sloping towards cracks in the rubble along the floor from broken stalagmites and stalactites. And there, lying on top of something which had fallen over recently, judging from its cracks, is a person, the creature named Dave. His form is fast asleep, either from the impact or from an intoxication, judging from the smell upon its breath. A bright light suffuses into it for a second, giving life towards the pale skin, before it slowly dies down back to the comfortable black of the cave that it's within. Before this moment in time, Dave did not exist in the physical world. At least, not in the reality that he finds himself born into. We do not know whether or not his existence is simply a cosmic joke, or something that is being played out on purpose. All that we do know, is that one moment, the body was not in the cave, and simply formed in the next. The actual earliest time that we know Dave exists, is the interpolation of the memories of J-209, which we'll begin looking into shortly to gain context towards the coming narrative that is being written and hastily trying to keep itself written. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Warning: This story has several things which might turn its readers away. The first is that this story has shifting points of perspective. Don't worry about that previous sentence too much though, as the main character will always have a first person perspective associated with them. However, any other character from which we're viewing the story from will either be in third-person, as we are not necessarily in their shoes at the moment, or in first person, given that the narrator is an actual physical presence within the story. For the most part, chapters will be self-contained with their perspectives, so there will not be an abundance of switching perspectives within the same chapter. The most that an average reader would have to worry about is the fact that perspectives can switch between chapters. The second thing is that the main character is a bit on the 'special' side of things. He's not exactly mentally there most of the time, so there will be some times that his personality or his thoughts do not actively align with his actions. The third, and final thing of importance, is the fact that past the first couple of chapters, nothing has been planned in advance. There are arcs and plots that I want to do, want to implement, or have already been set into motion from our main character's introduction to the world, but the method that I use for my story writing and generating leads towards a bit more random chance being enabled. Basically...there's a lot of dice rolling behind the scenes. To not complicate the story further than its regular LitRPG elements, the rolls will not be publicly available. However, there will be knowledge within the author's notes on whether or not there were positive or negative critical rolls that had occurred within the chapter. You have been warned. Updates: Mondays & Fridays (Schedule permitting) Typical Chapter Length: (2,000-3,000)
