《Re:Insanity》Side Story 003: Best Friend (I'm back?)
Advertisement
J.Clashed is online.
"Oh he's online! I've been waiting for that rascal."(?)
You've invited J.Clashed in a private chat.
IceSkull: hey! what took you so long! >
J.Clashed: sorry man.... i fell asleep 
Ice Skull: yeah sure. you still made me wait
J.Clashed: so what? anyway, are we going to raid the dungeon or what?
IceSkull: alright, i'll build up a party, meet me up at the gate. hurry up ok, the party members might get bored waiting.
J.Clashed: i know... im going to use a scroll so just wait.
During the days of me playing MMORPG, I never had a close online friend until I met J.Clashed.
We met each other in a dungeon raid party. We recognized each other's skill and decided to be friends. After that we became very close, to the point that we almost played together everyday.
We get along a lot together. We even talk about our personal lives and told each other about our story and such.
I knew why we were so close and I'm pretty sure he also knows. We both understand each other. I've locked myself away just like him. We both were scorned by the people around us.
Even I always did my best but no one appreciated me. I was good at studying, I was also good at sports. But they only see me as an outcast.
The reason for this was because of my past friends. The friends that I used to talk with. They were jealous of me. They made the other people around to avoid me.
I on the other hand couldn't do anything about it. Just like me and J.Clashed, we were too weak to fix the relationships around us.
J.Clashed: we got lots of loots today don't we?
IceSkull: yeah, we sure did. but you better give that D-coil to me.
J.Clashed: yeah yeah, i will
We really have so much fun when we're together. Even if we talk about stupid things we'd always do it kinda seriously but our topics are mostly about irrelevant things and pointless ones. Nonetheless we'd still have fun talking about it.
IceSkull: you know... i've been wondering...

J.Clashed: alright, what stupid topic are we gonna have....
He really is straight to the point.
IceSkull: what do you prefer? harem or just one girl?
J.Clashed: one girl of course.
IceSkull: and why?
J.Clashed: i mean, is having a harem even possible? like how do you even achieve having many girls while not making them hate each other, that would be chaotic. unlike having only one to love, its more pure and more right than having a harem. plus i dont want to look like a fuccboi.
IceSkull: wow.... you know so much despite being a virgin.....
J.Clashed: shut the fuck up! youre also virgin too, you shut-in cunt.
IceSkull: youre also a shut-in too...... anyway im the same as yours. im a gentleman after all.
J.Clashed: yeah right....
IceSkull: by the way i like sexy and huge breasted women! you?
J.Clashed:cute ones,period.
IceSkull:wow you pedophile fuck.....
J.Clashed: kids arent the only ones that are cute, you cunt.....
I really hoped that we'd be friends forever. But it had to end. One day J.Clashed decided to finally accept reality.
J.Clashed: you know ive been thinking of finally going out of my house, you know to redo my life and such.
IceSkull: what are you talking about?
J.Clashed: you know about my promise to my sister right?
IceSkull: yeah
He told me once that his sister saved him from an accident and he said it was his fault, it's also the reason he locked himself away. That promise was for him to live life to the fullest.
J.Clashed: and so i was thinking of going out and getting a job.
IceSkull: i see... well, do your best i guess.
J.Clashed: thanks man, you should also try going outside, you might get better and finally be truly happy.
IceSkull: well i guess i should too.
After that J.Clashed never talked to me again. I don't what happened but I guess he was pretty happy in his new life. I also decided to finally go out.
My parents were so happy for my decision. I also decided to go back to school. Of course, a different school. I tried my best to understand everyone I met and I succeded and made some friends. None of them scorned me, instead they were amazed and some even idolized me. I was very happy.

One day an unforgettable moment changed my life. I was suddenly transported to a different place. I was just walking and suddenly a bright light appeared before me.
"Pleased to meet you. I am the Goddess of Light, Ilumia."(Ilumia)
I was greeted by a beatiful person. I even felt a radiating warm aura coming from her.
"Ummm... I'm Aaron...."(Aaron)
I didn't know what to do. What came to my mind was first to introduce myself.
"I'm so sorry if this is so sudden for you. I'm really happy that you're not panicking much as expected."(Ilumia)
"I'm actually a bit nervous...."(Aaron)
"Don't worry, you're not going to be killed here or something. I summoned you here because I have a favor to ask for you."(Ilumia)
"What it is it?"(Aaron)
"Actually you are being summoned right now by someone from an another world. They summoned you because they are in dire need of help from a calamity that might come upon them."(Ilumia)
"So for short, I'm being summoned to be a hero?"(Aaron)
"Ahaha, yes. You might be thinking, "Oh this an another world summoning cliche", but I hope you seriously think about the decision you will make."(Ilumia)
I could only wryly smile at the Goddess' proposal.
"It's up to you if you want to help them. If you accept, I will give you blessings so that you can live there properly and save the weak but you won't be able to go back to your real world. If you refuse, then I will erase the memory of you meeting me here and return you back to your world. So please think carefully.(Ilumia)
The Goddess smiled at me as she wait for my reply.
Being a hero. To be one you must have courage and a sense of justice. I have the sense of justice, but the courage, I don't know. Would my parents approve of this?
"Son, I'm really happy that you went back to school. Whatever choice you make I will aprove it as long as you think it's right. I trust you, and I know that you always make the right decision."
I remember those words of my father. I was really happy when he trusted me. Those words gave me more courage when I went back to society.
IceSkull: if someone were to ask you to become a hero and save the world would you accept it?
J.Clashed: hmmm.... of course I would. Being a hero of justice is a good thing you know. wont it make you happy when you save someone? but i dont really know if i can save someone without hurting the enemies though... TT_TT
When you save someone it makes you happy. It gives you some sort of accomplishment, you also feel at ease knowing that they're safe.
You're right J.Clashed. This really is a good oppurtunity for me.
I smiled at the Goddess and look at her with determination in my eyes.
"I accept! I shall be a hero of justice!"(Aaron)
The Goddess' smile became wider at my answer. She closed her eye for a second and looked at me again.
"I'm really happy for your decision. I hope that you succeed in your quest and live a happy life the new world you will live in."(Ilumia)
A magic circle appeared beneath my feet and started to shine. I could feel my body slowly disappearing.
"When you go to the other world. You will be greeted by the one who summoned. They will help explain their situation and how you will help them. Don't worry I will always guide you as you go for your journey."(Ilumia)
The warm light covered my body and my vision went full white by the brightness.
I wonder what would happen if J.Clashed went with me to the other world. I'm sure it would be fun. Though I would doubt him being able to harm even a monster.
I laughed as I thought the image of J.Clashed being chased by monsters.
J.Clashed thanks for giving me courage. If I ever met you again I would definitely give you my thanks. You truly are my best friend.

Entangled Fates Book 1 - Quantum Beginnings
“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.” —Eliezer Yudkowsky Hey all, we're moving over to book 2. This content is in a state of transition. The book is now availble on Amazon (includes extra chapters): https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07W1534R8 Artificial intelligence was nearly mankind’s last invention. AI took off like a rocket, then when it racked up an impressive death toll, it crashed before it could blossom and took most high-tech industries with it. Resistance and fears became deep-set. Two decades after the infamous Rev. 4.6 incidents, humanity hasn’t quit dreaming of the wealth and power that could be at their fingertips. A new generation of mega-corporations rose from the ashes. When one melds a quantum computer to a barely functional mental patient as a PR move, there are those who seek to profit, those who want to destroy it, and Alex. Alex Sage is a typical college student trying to keep up his grades and maybe find a meaningful connection with the fairer sex. Then, an automated semi crashes into his home, killing his family and turning his head into a pin cushion in the process. Alex awakens to find most of his memories gone and an illegal AI hidden in his brain implant. Now the pet project of a tech billionaire and heavily in debt, Alex struggles to stay valuable enough to be kept online. Still grappling with the repercussions of his injuries, and threats from a dangerous anti-augmentation political movement, there are no easy answers and threats loom around every corner. Alex must use whatever resources he can to escape from under the thumb of a ruthless corporation, while keeping those he comes to love safe. Chapters will stay up on RRL until Aug 10. It'll go up on Kindle Unlimited after that. How do you get those extra chapters I didn't have planned for RR? If you want them, they'll be in the published book. Book 2 will still make sense without them - I made sure of that. But... isn't $3 a lot for extra chapters? Think of it as tipping me for a good job and you'd also be getting my eternal thanks. If you enjoyed it so much that the idea of missing out a few chapters haunts you, I did my job as an author and made an engaging story. What's in those extra chapters? Resolving a few issues, set up for the cybernetic revolution, a rather intense sex scene with a new partner, revelations of who's really pulling strings, and a bit of set up for book 2. Complaints that people missed out on it when it was published here won't help (sorry!). I posted this for the folks who helped me shape the book, which is you all! (Again, yay!) But... Why! Why not keep it all on RR forever? My editor likes being paid for one. For two, I'd like the ability to get broader readership. If I break even on editor costs, I'll be incredibly happy. What about book 2? Drafts for Book 2 will go up around Sept 10. My draft of Book 2 is done, and it will be handed to the editor once Book 1 is published. Feedback has been even more positive. Beta readers devoured it and wanted more. I'll add a link to Book 2 once it's up on RR. I'm more or less, using you all for Beta Readers, so you get it before it's "canon" and edited. I invite active and meaningful feedback during this process. In return, you get early access to chapters. That does mean that the book content or plot might be adjusted before it gets published as I refine it. Sex Y/N? Yes. I heard the feedback, 90% wanted it explicit. You all will get the "full" experience. Will I dump all of book 2 here? Honestly, I'm not sure yet. At a minimum, it'll be up to the 75% mark as we collect feedback, much like what I did with book 1. It really depends on how good the feedback is and how nice people are. Lots of support + meaningful feedback to make it better = higher likelihood you get all the book. Will be it up here indefinitely? No, it'll probably go up on KU at some point, but I'll make sure there's enough time for a large readership to grab it here. Then we move to book 3 which already is around 60K words already. What about other adventures in the same universe/characters? Yep. Absolutely. Nothing ready to share yet though. I plan to keep those side chapters and more slice of life stories as RR exclusive. Since I'm carving this off in book-sized segments, I'll have to figure out where those disconnected story arcs belong. I'm open to suggestions.

Bookworld Online: Marsh Man
Welcome dear friends, to the Virtual Reality Full Immersion System called Bookworld Online! Your name is David Drake and you are a 10 year old slave to the Marsh Hag. You were bought from your parents when you were only a small child at two years old. You don't really remember your old family at all. That's a good thing, since you would hate them on sight for selling you to her. All you've know for your whole life is pain. You are usually quickly healed and receive a lot of training and experience as her unofficial apprentice. It's unofficial because she would never pay to have you registered as an actual apprentice. To everyone else, you are just the boy she took pity on and brought into her home. What they don't know is that you are much more than that. So much more. You are her food. She uses you as her own personal buffet and she indulges herself quite often. You even have the permanent scars to prove it. You have learned many things from her, mostly without her knowing, since you have been helping more and more with her spell work the last few years and her potion making. The only parts you can't do are the magic condensing rituals that her potions require and the mana infusions that a lot of her other creations need. Do you wish to initiate the Main Storyline with these parameters? Please Note: I publish daily.Second Note: I changed this story to a fan fiction. It is based on Swamp Boy. The old story is about 4 years old and was dropped after 19 long chapters. The author hasn't been online since then, so I figured it was safe to do my own take on it.
