《Overlord Fanfic》Chapter 3

"... okay, so for my first wish.." Unko hesitated for a moment but decided to say it anyway.
"It is to live a comfortable life."
"..."
For the next couple of seconds, the God said and do nothing but stare at him. Feeling awkward of the situation, Unko tried to explain his first wish.
"... Umm, what I mean by that is.." Unko tried to explain, but didn't manage to do so as he was suddenly interrupted by the God.
"... I understand."
"... Uhh. You do?"
"... Of course, I can see your intent for that wish. But there's a lot of things you need to know. This wish is possible, but like I said earlier, wishes is not perfect so all your intent about this wish couldn't be implemented. But I do admit that your intent is extremely well thought unlike any other human I have met where they immediately ask for things such as EMS, Super Sayan bloodline, Rinnegan, and Gate of Babylon." The God said with an amused tone.
"... Pfft" Unko almost bursted out after he heard this. He already expect that those powers are probably to most wished powers if some other otaku is in his current position.
"... Oh well, to explain what I just said about your wish, it's like this... Your Comfortable status can't be applied to everything that surrounds you or linked to you. Remember that it will only be applied on a personal level. For reference, let's just that you choose to be reincarnated in a medieval type of world. Normally you need to use another wish if you want to choose your status before you reincarnate since the reincarnation departure is actually random. You can be either a boy or a girl, a peasant or a prince, a nobody or something that will bring an impact to the whole world in your next life. Do you understand what I mean?"
"... Yes, I understand." Unko said as he listen to the God's explanation hard.
"... But with your Comfortable Status, you pretty much don't need to use a wish about your Reincarnation status since the status you will have on your next life is a personal level. So with your Comfortable status, it's hard to see you being born in a poor family since it won't make your life Comfortable. So the chance of being reborn with a high status is really high. You can either be a noble or a royalty. But for example, you were born as royalty, as a prince of a certain kingdom. Living a life where you have all the riches in the world, wouldn't you agree that your life will be comfortable?" The God asked Unko, but the God didn't even wait for his answer as he speaks again. Seemingly to answer his own question.
"... Well, it can be both comfortable and uncomfortable, since being a prince of a certain kingdom, comes with a lot of responsibilities. Personal level is the things that will only affect you living your life in that particular world. Also, just to let you know that wishes is also a personal level, so it will naturally be affected by your comfortable status too. But the work and the things that will happen to you while you were living your life will not be part of your Personal Status since only you can decide your own fate. If you were killed by someone in the end, then you can't blame your status of comfortability since all the things you did in that world are the reason why you are killed. Your fate after your we're born will not be affected by your comfortable status since you are the only one that can drive your life. Do you understand the concept now?"

"... Umm yes, I kinda get it now." Unko is still pondering and processing some of the information he just got but answered yes nonetheless.
"... So, do you still want to choose this as your first wish?" The asked Unko with a serious expression.
Unko didn't answered immediately as he keeps pondering for a moment. A minute have passed after that, he finally raised his face and look towards the God.
"... Alright, I'll take that as my first wish." Unko stated with a nod.
After receiving his confirmation, God raises his hand and point it towards the floating crystal above them. And to seemingly respond in one of his wishes, one of the five magic circle that is hovering around the magic crystal disappeared.
'... I see, so that's what it represents.', Unko thought to himself as he observes the magic circles.
After all that happened, the God faces him again and say...
"... Granted, now state your second wish."
"... Umm, okay, I will now choose my departure."
"... Alright. The type of departure and the world you will go to is both included in one wish. You can say that it's like a package deal."
"... Hmm, I see, that's convenient. Then I will choose the Transportation as my departure."
Some might thought that being Reincarnated or Transmigrated are a much better choice. But Unko thought that in his case, being Transported is a much better case since he doesn't want any connection at all.
Being reincarnated or transmigrated means he will have a family, choosing a certain someone that has no such thing as family or relatives will consume one wish, he can't rely on his luck too since his comfortable status will intervene. It will surely transmigrate him or reincarnate him in a rich family since being alone and has no one to depend to are really not comfortable.
Surely that's a good scenario for everybody, but Unko has plans, and he can't have someone that he might be attached to. It will just make things hard for him.
Unko has some question regarding about his Departure, but before he can even ask or throw his questions away, the God smiled and beat him to it.
"... Like I said my child, I can read your intent like an open book. I know your worries so let me tell you that yes, you will have an identity if you choose to be transported since an identity is a personal status. Living in a world as a person that has no identity is not comfortable is it?"
"... I see, thank you for explaining. Then for the world... Umm, before I say the world, can I ask if I can choose what date I will be transported to? Or it is also randomized and I need to use one wish for it?"
"... No, you have the right to pick the exact date you will be transported. In fact, not just the date but also the place."

"... Alright, then for the world... I choose the world of 2138. In year 2125, the exact date isn't important but it should be at least mid-year. Then about the place, it's in Tokyo Japan." This time, Unko stated his wish clearly since he's expecting for the God to understand his intentions just like he said earlier.
"... Hmm. With this wishes, I already know where you're going with this one. But before all that, I need to tell you one more thing since the path you're trying to take is a really complicated one." The God said with a plain tone.
"... Just as I said earlier, the wishes are not perfect. But that's not all, the wishes are also one dimensional too. Meaning, you can't bring the wishes in another world. The wishes will only be usable in the world you chooses from your wish. So the moment you hop in the New World, all your wishes will be gone."
The moment Unko heard this, he was stunned. Some of his plans have been ruined immediately.
*SIGH*
But of course, he just accepted the painful fact since it's not like he can do anything about it.
"... I see. It's a large loss and a depressing one but I will still choose that world with the same date and place." Unko said with a resolute tone.
"... I see. Then as for your concerns, yeah, that particular event will surely happen, only if you meet the conditions, which I know that you know it already right?"
"... Oh, yes of course. Then umm, about the pollution..." Unko ask worriedly.
"... Yes, it's a personal level. But note that your comfort status can't get rid of the pollution completely since the pollution itself is a part of that world's background and an important factor of that world's upcoming story. But rest assured since your comfort status will find a way where the pollution can still stay while also not affecting your every day life."
"... I see, then I will be fine with that." Unko said with a sigh of relief.
The God raises his hand again in the air and one of the magic circle, hovering around the crystal have disappeared. Now only three magic circles are left, same for his wishes.
"... Granted. Now, state your third wish." The God said as he finished granting Unko's second wish.
"... Umm, I have a question first, does having a lot of Money, includes on the comfortable status?" Unko said with a hopeful expression.
"... No, it's a material level."
"... I see, that's sad. Then umm, is having unlimited amout of money a possible wish?" Unko with an even more hopeful expression.
".. Of course it does." The God said with a plain expression.
The moment he heard this, a smile have appeared on Unko's face, but it immediately disappear as he heard God's next words.
"But as I said, the wishes are not perfect. Having an unlimited amount of money has its ups and downs, but in your case, you'll surely have a problem with this if you choose to have an unexplainable unlimited amount of money. But, it's your decision."
"... *Sigh* I see, then I guess it's a bad option. Alright, for my third wish, I wish to have a lot of Money. Like tons of money. At least an amount that will not be extinguished even if I continue spending a large amount for the next 15 years." As Unko said this, he already have an expression that is clearly saying if what he just said is possible.
"... Of course it's possible. Owning a large amount of illegal money will go against your Comfortable Status, so you don't have to worry, your identity will make out for it." The God reassured the anxious Unko.
" I see, thank you very much."
The God raised his hands again and the same thing happen. The third magic circle broke and only two are left. The God faces Unko again and ask for his fourth wish, but unlike the earlier, Unko didn't say anything immediately.
He just keeps pondering as he thinks of some things within himself.
After a whole minute of thinking, he finally face the God in front of him.
"... So I can't take the wishes with me in the New world right? But what if use a wish for that to happen, is that possible?" Unko asked a question while still pondering about something.
"... Yes. It is possible."
"... Hmm. Then, is..."
After that, Unko did nothing but ask a bunch of question about the wishes and the God answers all of his questions truthfully. He didn't say his wishes immediately as he keeps asking a bunch of questions.
And finally, after a two minutes of doing nothing but asking question, Unko finally decided to face the God with a satisfied expression.
"... Okay, so for my fourth wish..."
(End of the third chapter 😊)

8 336A Prose of Years
For decades, spiritualist Evert Kallstrom and his team have joined in humanity’s millennia-long fight against the beasts. Wielding their weapons and their ki, they fought and killed these great threats to civilization. And yet, despite their efforts, humanity was losing traction in the war. In the last fifty years alone, more cities had been overrun than in all of known history. While most thought the great beasts natural, a few knew the terrible truth. They were the product of a dark lord, who desired neither fame nor wealth nor power. Instead, his sole purpose was the genocide of humanity. While their peers dithered, a small faction of the strongest mankind had to offer—including Evert Kallstrom and his team—set out towards the Deadlands to find and confront this dark lord. After weeks of travel, twenty-one spiritualists found themselves approaching an ancient fortress wherein rested a being known only as the Eastern Guardian. All they found was death. But death has other plans for Evert. Evert bolts awake in his 16 year old body near his hometown, decades in the past. He is confused, poor and weak. But with grit, sweat, and years of experience, he won't let the future repeat itself. That level of strength won't be enough by itself (it wasn’t last time) and victory is hardly assured (he’ll need to reach farther and higher than he ever did), but Evert refuses to squander a second chance. [Other tags: First Person POV, Hard Magic, Faulty Memory] Volume 1 is complete and has been fully released. My current intention is not to write any sequel volumes. That said, I have also released appendices (SPOILERS) that cover the worldbuilding and future story-that-never-was. Comments suggesting fixes for grammar, misspellings, etc. appreciated. Note: If you came here from Candlelit Lives, these stories have nothing in common.
8 148Chimera
Eleanor meant the world to Titus. So when an opportunity to bring her murderer to justice appears, Titus jumps on the chance. His quest, however, would mean traversing the dangerous world of Nivandor, a land infested with monsters, night hunters, and corrupt kings–nothing he and his lord, Lady Priscilla, couldn't handle. Their plans change, however, when both of them are dragged into a nightmare realm, a dimension filled with strange and powerful terrors unlike any they've ever faced. Titus's skill as a kinetic mage is put to the ultimate test as he must work with his lord to fight off the increasingly dangerous monsters that hunt them as they hunt down the three remaining Seraph lords sustaining the Nightmare. For only when the final Seraph lord is slain will the Nightmare truly end. --- Happy Holidays! I tried to get a chapter out this month, but there was just too much stuff to do and I got sick. There will also be more stuff to do come the month of December to the point that I don't think I will have a chance to finish the current story arc on a strong note. So, as of today, I will be going on hiatus until the holidays are over. I will hopefully return with the last few chapters of book 2 as well as the DLC chapters to help clarify Titus and Priscilla's powers as well as a look into their lives before the story gets crazy (maybe 6-7 chapters). These chapters are planned to take place in the day between Chapter 1.4 & Chapter 1.5, detailing the day they had before going to Nivandor. How the DLC chapters will be titled is to be decided. The DLC chapters will be posted here free as usual. Really excited to get a break so I can catch up on chapters. Even more excited to be able to start book 3 once the current story arc is finished. Warmly, Daniel --- Disclamer: This story is not a finished product and will be undergoing changes, sometimes significant changes, as the story develops. Think of it as an early access story where nothing is fully set in stone. If I change a part of the story that you really love, I'm sorry, but changing one part of the story will affect the other parts I try to avoid major changes, especially in older chapters, but for the newer ones there will probably be more fine tuning. As for anyone invested in the story who is not happy with the way the story is going, feel free to DM me so I can get feedback. I want to know how you guys feel about the story, what changes I can make, at what point in the story I may have lost you. But until I get specific feedback, I won't know what changes might need to be made. There are about 14 chapters left for Part 2 of Chimera, give or take. I don't have a time frame for when they will be up but know I am chipping away at the chapters as I can. Warm Regards, Daniel --- Cover art credit goes to Brosedesignz, who has an awesome selection of both premade and custom book covers at great prices on her website.
