《Hello Nightmare》14

"Hah! Hah! Hah!" Anzu woke up from her sleep.
"W-what happened?"
Why did I dream about that… never mind. Did I faint? The book...I saw the red book...why is it in his house? Why don't I realise it sooner?
Anzu lying down on a sofa, she recognized the sofa as her own.
I'm at my house? No, that can't be. I'm pretty sure I'm in Hiroshi's house just now. Wait, where's Himiko?
Anzu wanders around her house, and she can confirm that it really is her house. But there's a weird feeling playing around. The scenery beyond the window also doesn't look like the one she always stares at. She decided to get out of it. Once she is standing in front of her door, she reaches the doorknob and turns it around.
"Woooooh" Anzu surprisingly turned upside down. Like the house itself twisting. All her furniture also fell into the ceiling. The gravity of her house suddenly changed.
"What the…Urgh...it hurts…" Anzu is lying down on her ceiling, she can see the floor on top of her.
"Screth! Scretch!"
As she takes time to recover, a strange sound comes from the window.
"Scretch! Scretch! SCRETCH!" She can hear it closer before it falls silent.
Anzu slowly goes into the window to examine it.
"KLECKKKKKK!"
The windows were broken by a single furry red hand with sharp claws. Hiroshi with his half fur form arises from the window.
"Ergh… Ergh…" Hiroshi breathing heavily. He crawls on the ground like a four-legged animal.
What's wrong with him?
"Too…many…people…"
"Huh? What are you saying?"
"Need…to get…rid…some…"
This is bad…
Anzu prepares her finger gun.
I only had five bullets left… damn, why don't I go refill it first before coming here?
"Ergh… Ergh…"
Wait… is he crying?

In the middle of the madness, Anzu realizes a tear coming from Hiroshi's eyes.
"Wroghhh!"
As she loses concentration because of the tears, Hiroshi takes advantage and pounce toward Anzu.
Shit!
Anzu has time to dodge his claws and goes to the left while Hiroshi bumps into the door.
I need to get out of here.
She runs with all her might to the window. Hiroshi tries to chase her but being blocked by the table Anzu throws into him to slow him down.
Argh! Nevermind!
Without thinking too much Anzu jump from the broken window.
Shit! I'm dead! I'm dead! Huh?
To her surprise, she doesn't fall off into the ground, splitting into pieces. On the contrary, she was floating in the air.
What the hell is happening? This is…definitely not my home…
Anzu looks at his apartment, it is just a big building with no window except for her room. She is floating in a cube-like space as she can see the six equal square shape size black walls around it. Like a mega box that has many things including her house in it.
What makes it precisely clear as a box is the edges and the corners are all in white lights.
Hiroshi trying to swim in the air to reach Anzu.
Is he trying to catch me? For what exactly? Wait, if this is his Region, then there should be his core anywhere! Find a clue! Find a clue!
Anzu eyes wander around the place. There's a green flat house that caught her eyes.
That's his house, doesn't it? Is that his core? How should I shoot a core that big? First, I should get on the ground. I don't even know how gravity works here.
Just like Hiroshi, Anzu swims through the air to reach the ground. Once she is on the ground, she's not floating anymore. She headed toward Hiroshi's house.
Once she enters it, an old woman is waiting inside sitting on the sofa.
"Auntie...Kiko?!”

The Exiled Villainess Returns
(Please heed the warnings above before reading) Reborn into the beautiful but deadly world of Ethetia, she comes to a sudden awareness that she is now Livia Katrina Valentine, a character of a game of a reverse harem she once played on Earth called Aster Academy: The Feuding Houses. But this revelation comes a bit too late. You see, Livia wasn't just anyone. She was not given the anonymity of being a background character, or even the blessing of being the heroine. Instead, she has bestowed the role of being the atrocious villainess. And that is exactly what she had been. As a result, Livia triggers her own death flag event at her debutante. Her memories of her past life have the grace to come only minutes before she is accused of poisoning the heroine, Amelia. But all is not helpless. Via last-minute intervention, Livia successfully manages to avoid having her head decapitated. Being exiled was a small price to pay for retaining a pulse. Plus, at least this way, Livia can finally start to live her life, to become more than just a cruel folly. Her exile should have been a new but unusual beginning to her story. But pitiless reality comes knocking. Ethetia had once only been a background setting in a game. A pretty and still picture that mostly went disregarded as the even prettier characters on the screen unloaded their dialogue, but now, it was Livia's world. As real and wonderous as planet Earth once had been, filled with small creatures with their own wills, ambitions, and needs. Such one creature decides that exile was not enough of a penalty. That Livia, the bullish and jealous tormentor of the heroine, deserves a fate more befitting of her past deeds. One worst than death. Livia's fate is ripped out of her hands. She is forced into a collar, sold to an empire rotten with greed, and placed inside a harem where she is expected to wither and die from the inside out. But Livia refuses to be forgotten. Burning with a deep rage against those who only wish to see her fall into her own grave, Livia makes a twisted promise to herself. A promise that pushes her through the darkest moments of her life and brings to light a newfound power rooted deep inside her. So keen to discard her as the villain she has once been, the little creatures in their own ignorance brought forth something they could never dream to fathom. A beacon of darkness.
