《Records of the Weakest Emperor》Chapter 6: I'm Coming Back, Las Felipinas
Advertisement
An unknown amount of time passed and Calvin finally woke up.
The first thing that his eyes saw upon waking up was an unfamiliar ceiling.
However, the ceiling had decorations that one could consider as luxurious.
This didn't seem to be the underground laboratory of Fivecent.
'This looks more like a hotel...'
Calvin inwardly uttered.
He raised his upper body and then confirmed that yep...
He was inside a hotel.
Waterback Hotel, a five-star hotel within the City of Dabao. Judging from the size of the room he was in and the lavish decorations that involved real gold and silver. His room must be the most expensive suite in this Waterback Hotel.
'Wheeew... They sure don't hold back towards making sure that their future slaves will be loyal to them in the future, eh?'
Calvin shook his head and lightly chuckled.
He then turned to look at the nearby table and found that there was a golden envelope along with a blindfold lying on top of the table.
Calvin lifted a small smile.
He approached the table and carefully opened the letter.
Mabuhay!
We would like to offer our gratitude to you for accepting our contract invitation to Las Felipinas, an unknown and foreign world connected to ours!
Las Felipinas is a world only available for the chosen few.
This is a world full of adventures! Magic, dragons, elves, everything that you can think of as fantasy exists within the world of Las Felipinas!
Attached within this letter are the complete instructions on how the contracted can enter the world of Las Felipinas!
* Instructions: Please search for an apartment building with thirteen floors in the City of Davao! After finding the appropriate building, please enter the staircase at exactly 3 am. The moment you step a single foot onto the stairs, you must close both of your eyes... *

* Climb from the first floor to the top floor with your eyes closed and when you've done everything according to these instructions. The moment you open your eyes, you'll find yourself in the world of Las Felipinas! *
* WARNING: Only the contracted can attempt this. You must never open your eyes before you reach the top floor. No matter what happens. No matter what you feel, touch, hear or smell. You must not open your eyes or you'll be immediately killed by the abyss! *
* Hint: One can fight back against the Abyss of the Crack. But one must never open their eyes before reaching the top! *
Good luck, contracted!
See you at the land where dreams come true and die out!
Peace!
"Pfft!" Calvin almost busted his guts upon seeing the comical ending of the letter.
However, he wasn't the least surprised about the instructions. He had undergone this test of courage back then. The participants were not allowed to open their eyes for the demons behind the crack, possibly tamed by Fivecent would stalk the participants and test their nerves and grit.
Although these actions of Fivecent seemed counter-intuitive. What they were doing was correct for Calvin at least. if one wanted to enter the world of Las Felipinas. They must not be weak. Even a mere cannon-fodder had their own standards. In short, if one couldn't even pass this test of courage, then they don't even deserve to be cannon-fodders.
Calvin suddenly gave a bitter smile.
Back then, he pissed his pants from the fear of being surrounded by those demons and as a result.
He was thoroughly mocked by his fellow cannon-fodders.
But today, everything would be different.
Now that he knew what was to happen, Calvin was prepared.
And he also didn't plan to just casually scale the stairs!

If those demons actually dared to approach him, then they would face his fists!
Calvin's eyes shone in excitement.
He almost couldn't wait until 3 AM arrived.
Of course, having prior knowledge of the world. Calvin knew where that appropriate apartment building was located. In other words, he now had nothing to do apart from lay down and wait until the right time arrived.
"Man, I'm feeling bored."
"I can't execute any of my plans until I get to Las Felipinas."
Calvin sat upright and swept his gaze across the surroundings. His eyes came to a sudden halt for he saw a complimentary pen and small notebook lying on another desk in his presidential suite.
"Paper and pen!"
He almost leaped out of his bed from excitement.
He took the small notebook and pen and then he started writing.
He scribbled some words, it didn't matter if they made sense or not. As long as he could satisfy the craving, the itching that he had for writing then he planned on going to any lengths. He wrote about everything that he could, the challenge that he faced back then while fighting against the invaders, to mundane things such as how to change a light bulb.
'Why did the chicken cross the road?'
'To get to where the retard lives.'
'Knock, knock...'
'Who's there?'
'The chicken.'
"Pfft! Did I just call myself a retard?"
Calvin almost busted his guts once again as he hurriedly scribbled over the chicken joke that he wrote.
Staring at the small notebook that was almost full of gibberish at this moment. Calvin felt inexplicably peaceful. Ever since he became the great traitor of Humanity, he never had any friends once again. The invaders only looked at him like he was a tool and every fellow human that he met treated him with utmost disgust.
Part of the reason why Calvin managed to stay sane was because of his writings...
It didn't matter what he wrote, as long as he was writing...
Calvin felt that it was cathartic.
Back then...
He greatly hated the fact that he acquired the so-called useless Writer Profession out of all the Professions out there.
But when he became alone and abandoned by the world itself.
Calvin finally realized why he acquired the Writer Profession in the first place.
Writing was in his blood.
He would enjoy, no matter how mundane the words he wrote, for as long as he was the one who scribbled it down. He'd find a strange sense of enjoyment and satisfaction from writing it.
"Sigh..."
Calvin let out a sigh.
Back then, he became the greatest traitor of humanity.
Now that he was back...
He'll become the strongest hero that will save humanity from destruction!
Calvin steeled his resolve once again as he stood up and glanced at his wristwatch.
1:57 AM.
'It's time...'
'I'm coming back...'
'Las Felipinas.'

Mana Soul
Like many others across the multiverse, Markus was chosen as this world's hero to fight against the steadily approaching cataclysm. Only, something went horribly wrong. Left with only a handful of memories, Markus has spent years clawing his way up from poverty and officially registered as an adventurer to try and make his fortune. Unfortunately, Artificers are the least combat-capable class of the four classes, and Markus has no connections to join an established party. With the fate of countless worlds hanging in the balance, a chance meeting will determine the course of a war nearly as old as reality itself. Warning: Markus has trauma induced amnesia and will occasionally 'act out of character' or make 'poorly thought out' decisions. These events are rather obvously telegraphed abd represent conflicts between his current personality and the one repressed alongside his trauma. Just something to bear in mind.The story will bounce predominantly back and forth between the primary protagonists every couple of chapters. The time stream is linear, so events are not revisted/rehashed/retold through the narrative format. Characters may comment on something that has occurred, but that's different. Just giving a heads up.Chapters will be around 7-9k and updated 1/week on the same schedule as my other story Ogre Tyrant over the weekend.[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
