《A Man and His Greatsword》Prologue
Advertisement
My name is Michael Adkins, and currently, I'm having tea with Eden, the god of another world. "This isn't a dream right?", I skeptically stated as I observed Eden. "Of course not, this is all real Mr. Adkins. Now please stop staring at me, it's getting a bit creepy.", said Eden. He then took a sip of his tea before switching his gaze back to me. "Consider my offer Mr. Adkins, I've heard that you would like to enjoy "fantasy" worlds like the one I manage." Eden was your typical fantasy god. He was handsome and hospitable, albeit very lazy and bored, hence my summoning. "Alright, I'll go. What will you do about my previous life on Earth?", I stated with a slightly worried tone. I had nice co-workers in that job, including a certain girl that I liked. I had planned to ask her out, but I was swiftly taken away to here. "Don't worry, any memory of you will be erased as if you never existed in the first place.", stated Eden with a slightly joyful tone. Slightly taken aback, I brushed it off as I put on a business smile and got serious. "What powers will I be able to choose from?" "Go wild, I'll grant the powers you want. Just nothing too powerful, alright?" Eden gave off a laid back attitude afterward. "1. The maximum possible greatsword mastery. 2. A 2x modifier to strength, agility, and dexterity. 3. The ability to gain experience at five times the normal rate." Eden had pondered for a while but ultimately decided to grant the powers. "Now for your class." "Grant me a strong one related to greatswords.", I said without a single bit of hesitation." Eden was slightly surprised at the instant answer but granted the class. "Check your status, you should be able to see it. It has the modifications granted to you." I thought about the status screen and it popped up in front of me.

I stared at the status quivering in excitement for what seemed like 10 minutes until Eden broke the silence. "So, what do you think?" Eden lazily said. "I love it." I stated with no small amount of joy in my voice.

There is a common line of questioning that falls upon students within their first moments at Kingsly. “Why?”. The student asks, “Why am I here?”. This is a futile line of questioning. There are those who remember, and those who do not. I’ll spare you the technical explanation — that’s what we have teachers for. The jist is as follows: those who remember are... how do I put this... more likely. They occupy more time. and the space that time has allowed them — the pertinent amount — is experienced no matter what. Allow me to offer you a bit of personal information: I am not one who remembers. There is no time relevant to me, no space that I occupy. I exist by carving myself here, and continue to exist in the same fashion. You would do well to follow suit. Why am I here? Because I force myself to be. Because the universe, the universes, for all its kicking and screaming, cannot escort me out.
