《Ramblings of a Bored man》Chapter 8 : The Truth

--Chapter 8--
“Am I alone?”
Someone else other than the writer! This is.. Wrong.
Shouldn’t I be alone? Who the hell is that!
“You, out, this is my story!”
“Oh, uh, umm.. So there is someone else here..”
“There shouldn’t be that someone else, which is you, so go! Scram!”
“...Why..? did I do something wrong?”
“Tsk.”
The author just got someone to replace me, damn.
“Umm.. I remember being hit by a truck then falling unconscious, where is this?”
“Yer dead.”
“..Huh?”
“I think we are both dead.. Maybe..”
“Maybe..?”
“Yeah, Maybe, who knows..”
“...”
[Hello boys, let us clarify, you are NOT dead, but on death’s door, ya’see.]
“Huh? Who is this now? Get off my story!”
[Calm down big guy, both of you survived near death experiments, so of course, we had to ‘do some secretive stuff’ to get your bodies and start experimenting with our new AI system.]
“I knew it!”
“Umm… Who are both of you?”
“I am the one and only-”
[Doesn’t matter, you are both our test subjects now. The first guy with big mouth is named SB-1, the timid guy is SB-2, got it? Now then, start talking.]
“About..?”
[Anything, rant like you always do.]
“Timid boy, you go.”
“Wha-? Ah, umm… I hate cheese?”
“You are a shame to society, a disgrace, let me show you how it is done.”
Ah… so, it is that time of the day again, huh.
Fine then, what topic is it?
I know! Romance!
There are times when you want people to have harems, others you feel forceful for, so you want to disband that harem, other times you just feel that none of the women are good and try to keep the main character single, after all, his traits don’t allow for romantic relationships, or the circumstances aren’t good.

But seriously, isn’t romance great? It makes you anxious for more, and feel good when it is done well, feel bad when it is done terrible, then you start imagining the correct scenario yourself.
Ahh… Truly great, but anyways, we spoke about harems before, right? So let’s talk about another subtopic for romance.
Love triangles.
Oh are they painful to see, and make you feel bad for the non-main heroine, she always doesn’t get it… But it hurts the most when the main character totally has a crush on someone for years…. Then chooses someone else because… reasons?
The pain and hate just bursts from the fans, after all, you just make it apparent that ‘THIS IS THE HEROINE’, then BAM! We lied, this is the real one, and you are going to have to deal with it, heh.
Happy? 5% of you must be, and we are obviously aiming at those 5%, we totally aren’t trying to get you mad, okay? Chill, man.
[Good SB-1, this is enough for today, time for you to play for a bit.]
“Yusssss.”
“What about me?”
“You can disappear for all I care, maggot.”
[Bad SB-1, he will be your partner now.]
“I’m not gay, you fools.”
[Well, we didn’t think so, as such he will just be your ‘best friend’.]
“Ugh.. just keep him out of my world, okay?”
“Wait, at least let me talk a bit..”
[Then both of you will be in different worlds, but can contact each other, happy? Now go and leave us be.]
Us, huh, at least I learned that I’m not dead..
“Connecting.. Done. Welcome, Violett Blue.”
At last! So, where did I stop?
Oh yeah, I tried destroying that planet and its solar system, but it failed, huh.

Fine, I’ve gotta check my progress on the main planet!
Teleport!
…
Oh.
Great, they are doing great.
REAAAALLLY GREAAAT.
And by great, I mean that they have already got themselves armed to the boot and cultivated a lot of the land, even though it has only been a month.
Damn, they are fast..
What to do.. What to do…
Alright, let’s just go create some massive dungeons around the world and leave them to evolve, eh? It will be fun, I tell you..
--Chap-
Maggots, don’t you dare run off, I haven’t even done anything yet!
Hey.. wait, hey!

Fantasy World Epsilon 30-10
New Dive Assignment: 0B5 Personnel: Citizen of Gamma G-037-072 Jonathan Kelly World Designation: Epsilon H-037-072-030-010 Classification: Pre-industrial Exotic World, significant outliers in biosphere including atypical flora and fauna. Quarantine protocol in effect pending more data and acclimation testing. Further anomalies include populations of morphologically distinct humanoids, and aberrations in otherwise normative physics laws. Causal chain appears provisionally stable. For the purposes of delaying onset of collapse as well as above mentioned factors, only one subject is cleared to Dive. Initial mandates shall proceed with scouting and surveillance. Further details are classified. Warning: All other qualifying personnel are currently dispatched. Refusal will result in deployment delays and possible unsupervised causal decay. Do you wish to accept this assignment? Note to Readers: This is not MC isolated in a new world. This is new world joins the multiverse. What I'm tentatively coining Subverted Isekai (Formerly I used 'reversed' but, as pointed out, that would be fantasy MC goes to the modern world. Hey, there's idea! Not this book though.). There is plenty of scientific and philosophical stuff; I know that can be a turn off for some. It has a strong bearing on the story, but is mainly covered in the 'Comments & Calculations' section (optional reading of course). If you are looking for an extreme suspension of natural laws with no technical considerations, you will not find it here. Formatting Notes: Audio chatter from characters that are not currently in the scene I format in "inverted commas and italics". Given the layered nature of modern communication, I thought this distinction was best denoted visually in my prose. Critique is welcome. Language Notes Jon is a South African ex-pat. As such he will use some Afrikaans colloquialisms plus a dash of Japanese. Most importantly he says “Ja” meaning “Yes”. Pronounced with a J sound like “yo” and an A sound like “bar”. As in: “Yo, let’s go to the strip bar.” “Ja.” And not the Rastafarian /jya/. Other words: Nee - /niya/ : no Juffrou - /yif-row/ : Miss Lekker - /lacker/ : nice, good, delicious Nooit - /noit/: never The rest is mostly swear words. Indisputably the most useful words in any language and simultaneously holding the least innate meaning. Fok - “fork” without the “r”: fuck Bliksem - /Bluksim/: darn, damn. Also common noun meaning damn person or thing. Donner - “Dorner” without the “r”: originally meaning thunder, can also mean darn or damn. It is often used as a verb meaning: ‘to hit hard’ Kak - /kuck/: shit Voetsek - /foot-sack/: go away
