《The power of an author》Surviving in the wastelands! - chapter 4
Advertisement
I was teleported in the middle of a deserted place!
[ ... ] ( Hiro )
So it was true! I am in another world!!
I was teleported into another world together with my classmates.
...
But I was disposed of in the wastelands!
Why did this happen?
Did I do something bad and now Karma is getting me back?
No!
I clenched my fist with all of my strength.
It's real! I'm not dreaming! I can feel pain in my hands from the grip!
I want to go home! I don't want to be here!
I started walking around.
There was nothing I could see in the distance!
Only Sand!... Sand...more sand....even more sand!!
Everywhere I looked, there was sand!
Will I survive? Am I going to die from starvation?!
Is this the end for me?
How did this happen?
I was in my classroom, sleeping while listening to my friends who were having fun and then...?
Where is everybody?
It's becoming hot!
I'm also getting thirsty!
How long have I been walking?
I need help!
My thoughts kept wandering around my head as I desperately kept walking, trying to find something!
I didn't care what it was, I wanted something I could eat or drink!
Can humans survive by eating sand?
Maybe if I try it, I can eat it!
I picked up some sand on my hand.
It was really hot! My hand was burning from the high temperature of the sand!
But I didn't care! I wanted to eat it!
[ Pffttttt ] ( Hiro )
I spat it out the moment it touched my tongue!
It was disgusting, super salty, and gross!
It was impossible to eat, and now my tongue was burnt from the hot sand!
What was I thinking?!
Why did I try to eat sand?

Sand can actually harm humans if they swallow it!
But what should I do?
I don't know how long I have been walking!
It must have been around two hours.
I don't know if time here is the same as on earth.
The sun was at the top of my head and its light was coming straight down in my body!
My body was burning from the sun's light!
I didn't know how long I was going to survive here,
There was nothing I could use here!
Even if I try to sit down and rest, I couldn't!
My body would get burned from the sand!
I already have lost my senses on my feet!
Even though I was walking, I couldn't feel them anymore!
I couldn't even take a rest because my feet would get sucked in the sand!
I hated this!
I wanted to survive!!
But what came later were things that I regretted saying earlier about the hot weather!
The weather in this place was unstable!
During the night, it became really cold!
I still didn't stop walking because I knew that my body would freeze to death!
I had to keep my body moving so I would warm up somehow!
Even though I was getting sleepy, I didn't stop!
I kept walking without resting!
For how long will this go on?
Am I going to die anytime soon?
No! I'm scared!
I'm lonely!
No one is near me!
I was abandoned! Disposed!
No one wanted me!
It hurts! My whole body hurts!
I'm hungry! Thirsty!
I want to sleep! I want to lie down and take a rest just for a bit!
Just for a bit is fine right?!
I can just lie down!!
Maybe if I sleep here, I will wake up in my room where I write my novels!

That's right, this is a dream, my actual body has fainted from overworking myself on my novels!
As I was about to lie down, I slapped myself really hard!
*Slap!*
What was I thinking!?
I will die if I lie down now!!
I can't let that happen!!?
I don't want to die!!
My whole body hurts!
My eyes, legs, arms, my back!!
It hurts!!
...
That's right, I have read a lot of stories where the main character gets transported into another world!
What would the main character do in this kind of situation?
He gets transported to another world as a hero, defeats his enemies, and enjoys his peaceful life with everyone!
There was no way for the hero to be treated like this!
But for me?
It was different!
They got rid of me! They didn't need me!
There is no way for someone to survive in this kind of situation!
Is my only option to die in this place?
Won't I be able to go back home?
My dream was to become a popular author!
But no matter how many times I wrote something, it was never getting enough attention!
Was it because I lack talent?
I don't know...
Is this happening to me because I tried too hard?
I don't know...
I don't know anything!
As I kept walking without a destination, I noticed the sun which was rising on the horizon!
It wasn't anything special or beautiful...
It just felt empty for a place like this!
I walked in that direction while holding my stomach from the pain.
I felt something bumping on my feet as I was trying to walk.
I looked down...
It was a human skeleton...
I wasn't scared...
Was this guy disposed of just like me?
It seems like he didn't make it...
I hope he didn't have a painful death...
...
The sun was out once again!
It was the second day ever since I was disposed of in this place!
I don't know how long I have been walking but there was one thing I knew...
I had to survive no matter what!
I didn't want to die in a place like this!
If I had the chance to choose how I die... I'd choose in a cool way!
But this... is just painful!
I still had hopes that at any moment I would find something or at least someone that would help me.
But the more time passed, the more I started realizing that no one was going to help me, nor will I find anything to survive!
This was the wastelands!

The Girl Named Rino
Oh. Hello. I didn't see you come in. No, don't worry. I don't need to hear your name. I already know what it is. I also knew that you'd come up at around this time. But, at the same time, I also didn't know. It's very hard to put into words - but that's what happens when you become the Chaos God. Your psyche gets messed up, big time. That's even more so for me, who was already warped enough to confuse reality with imagination - and, even make the rest of the universe believe that it was so. But, enough about me. Let's talk about you. You seem to come from a very far away land. It's faint, but your presence is there - in a relatively primitive planet. No wonder, no one wanted to stay in, or conquer your region of the universe - there's nothing worth controlling there. Your existence, much like your entire solar system, also seems to be pretty insignificant. Tell me, is your race capable of destroying your own world? Oh, you're already well along the way? Global Warming? Pollution? Overpopulation? Nuclear weapons? Wow... it's been many millenia since I'd last heard of such ancient concepts from someone who is actually living through it. Still, good job getting that far. That means that your world is now, at least, worth considering as a possible place to install a World System. If I find the time, I'll try surveying it. You can just thank me, later. Oh wait! What kind of person am I, not even offering my guest any hospitality. I'm ashamed. Please, take a seat. What would you like? I have everything the multiverse has to offer, whatever it is you want - I can get. Ah! After we talk, would you mind, if I asked you to do me a tiny favor? There's this girl, I want to keep tabs on. She's in one of the Worlds that I preside over, it's called Aiarthe. But, for some reason, I can't see her - not directly, at least. All I need you to do, is check up on her from time to time. Whether you do it as a pure spectator or through someone else's eyes, is entirely up to you. Really!? You would!? Wow! Thanks! You really did me, a huge solid there! For agreeing so quickly, how about I get started on surveying that planet of yours, right now!? You can help yourself, to anything in the fridge! Well, see ya!

Born a Pawn
What purpose is there in living? For I, Kento Murakami, a master bookkeeper and hacker, the answer came soon after my most recent score. Turns out I'd have preferred to have just died and gone to heaven, and leave the deep thinking to the philosophers. Well, as it turns out I'm simply a pawn for forces far beyond what my tiny brain can fathom. In truth I'm a copy and paste underling for a cosmic entity. At least they are giving me a "sabbatical" after my mission on earth (I knew the world sucked). Join me on my isekai adventure as I get to live it up in a land of swords and sorcery!
