《Death Note : A New Story》Offering
Advertisement
I bought a kilos worth of apples and returned home where Ryuk was reading my death note.
Kira: "Leave the book. I tell you in detail of what I'm going to do if you really want to know."
Ryuk: "You finally decided to cuddle up? Typical of you humans."
Kira: "Here. I brought you some apples. Eat as many as you like. But before you do, tell me this. Why do you like apples so much?"
While munching the whole bag of apples, Ryuk responded, "Haven't I told you already? The apples where I'm from just aren't as juicy as in this world."
Kira: "Now I'll tell you what I've been thinking."
I sat down on my chair, laid back and sighed.
I looked up and spoke,
"You act out of your desperate nature, craving for something more. Yet in the end, when you gain what you wanted, it isn't enough. You crave more. Humans are similar to you in that way. In fact, all living beings search for something more, something better to no end. We live our entire lives searching for true meaning; but I'm different from the rest. I see an ant's perspective instead of the bigger picture, knowing there's more to explore, knowing, that the truth is waiting to be discovered. Because, I found a part of the truth long ago, the only part that mattered."
Ryuk: "Oh? And what's that?"
Kira: "Nothing matters in this world. Whether you're rich or poor, kind or hateful, strong or weak; there's always a time when you face a repercussion. And by the time you're done facing this tedious cycle, you'll die in a moment's notice. That's the cycle of life. Beautiful and yet so ugly. In this cycle, I'll fulfil whatever task necessary to leave with my best performance; to complete this cycle once and never again. For that, if I have to abandon my perspective, my reputation, I will."

Long War [Oldest]
It was a war. It was silent, so silent that few people ever noticed that it was happening, and long. So long that those who knew forgot why it ever started. Humanity had fought against itself... and lost. Prosperity, democracy and human rights were a thing of the past now, as the world fell into Sovereigns's hands - a handful of transnational corporations (and their CEOs) that monopolized the world economy. The resistance had been long silenced with the policy of bread and games. Now, over a hundred years later, something happened. One of the Sovereigns created a VRMMORPG like none other. A science fiction game, where players could explore the Galaxy... full of advanced technologies, bloodthirsty aliens and even magic. Was it a simple computer game, or... something else?
