《My life as a clerk in a totally normal world》 Rejection and denial Rejection and Denial "It could have been soo easy! Yet, all you did was mope around and act all narcissistic as if all that mattered in this world were your problems. Don''t you think we ever had our own problems to deal with too, Liam?" The young lady, who appears to be of American descent with slight brunette hair, made an aesthetic choice of dress that screamed fashion, reminiscent of the 1800s with its tight bodice, full skirt of intricate lace patterns, high neckline, and long sleeves. "Tch, so what? At least I talked it out, but what did you guys do? You kept it to yourself, damn it. How the hell would I know then?" The man who replied also seems to be in his 20s, although he doesn''t appear American enough. With all the people surrounding him looking at their lover''s quarrel as if it''s their evening drama show. However, in the sense of fashion though, his taste is impeccable; he wore a sleek, tailored suit in charcoal gray with a facial mask, although the last part does seem unnecessary when asked by others. "Hey, you guys...." An NPC comment from our boy, da James. He is your typical normal guy who wears casual wear most of the time but knows when to wear dresses that could even melt a maiden''s heart. Overall, he is a good fella overall. "Don''t butt in here, Eric, this is between us." "Not when you guys start involving us too... Olivia." Feeling like this is never going anywhere, Liam starts to distance himself to deliver a final blow and head to God knows where. "Hahaa yeah Eric, even though she totally got you involved, it''s not your problem at all! How laughable that I dated her and even loved her enough to go beyond all this. But no, I can see that all we did was nothing more than pretend love. All I saw was an illusion, and all YOU saw me in were expectations. Olivia. I know that you are a good person, but I sincerely hope this will be our last contact." "Yeah, be all sentimental until the end, I''m sure it makes you feel better, you bastard." And so, having said what he wanted to, although he still felt regret for what he said last to her, maybe due to his memories uncontrollably flooding in, he left the scene of the drama and returned to his normal clerk job at the not-so-famous midnight bar. -----Prologue finishes----- Do you ever wonder about the Abyss? (Switching POV to Liam from our good ol'' narrator) Scene: After the previous drama that happened for God knows why, now at midnight working at a club. The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation. "Mm, seems like a lot of guys come here than usual. I was wondering maybe I could better myself by seeing myself out with a chick, but I guess not." "Mm, I can see what you are thinking boy but if you ever try to score up our customers at my club, I will pry open your intestines boy, remember it." "Ha Ha... Yeah, I totally wasn''t thinking that. C''mon, show some concern to a heart-breaking man here, chief." "Funny you say that with a straight face with no emotions of guilt or sadness." "Am I not good at hiding emotions? Well, jokes aside, it seems like we are getting a lot of male customers these days. Know why?" "It''s kind of insider information but I will let you know since you will probably be here for eternity." "To my knowledge, I don''t owe any debt or eternal servitude to you, just so you know." "The word is that a new gate entirely of new origins and mysteries will appear soon near our town." "...! This town?! I daydreamed this a lot but damn, to think such a day will finally come." "Haha, you''re thinking of being a hero, boy?" "Hmph, not a chance in this life. I''m glad I can use some martial arts at least if anything at all. I think a tragic yet hopeful side character will fit me, you know?" "Haa I guess overestimating our potential is common these days huh? The threat and fear of Armageddon really do falter as time goes on, as King Arthur Night said." "....." "Was that too much of a dark topic for a kid like you?" "Nothing, we have been talking for too long, let''s go start the real night." ''After that, I have been doing what I have always been doing: clean the utensils, kick out annoying customers, help money launder client''s money, and mainly, drug trades in the alleyway.'' ''I wonder if this is the happiest thing to do for me?'' "Hey, kid!" A loud feminine voice alerted Liam as he was on night duty to patrol the neighborhood area near the club. "Mm, A lady who wears an alpha mask, what could possibly go wrong today? Just so you know, I will tell you everything I know, you don''t have to torture me." "Hahahhaha, that''s clever kid, I like it but don''t worry the Alpha Legion won''t be here today." "Meaning?" "I alone am enough." Although he can''t see her facial expressions, Liam knows one thing: if you see any legion members, run or face your death bravely. That''s the only option for witnessing even just a member of the Alpha. "So? Where are the drugs?" Liam obediently handed the drugs. He knows for a fact he will be killed even if he speaks or hesitates a little; he isn''t some main character after all. "Good, good..." She continued to search for the drugs while saying "good" among other nice words as if she must say those words. Is it the craziness of the Alphas? One can wonder. "...kid, do you ever wonder about the Abyss?" "Sometimes, although I doubt I will ever come into a situation where I need to think too much about it." "Such boring answers, are you seeking death?" Her aura surged so high that he even wondered how lucky he was that he is able to breathe even after witnessing such an eye-shattering event. "No, I''m sorry, I was thoughtless when answering it. If I may ask, can you enlighten me on what you think of it?" "Yeah, that''s not a bad response but too bad though, that''s not nearly enough." After saying that, the only thing Liam remembered was the words " The Godkiller stone was finally found and how she was happy with the cooperation." He finally realized now why the tight-lipped chief told him such important information and why he was on patrol duty and drug trading when the other guys usually took these over while all he would do was typical clerk duties. Does he regret it? Perhaps not. Dying by a legion member could be considered a good death as compared to dying by the time being. At least you die quickly and painlessly here. If anything, he thought he would at least be a side character, not an NPC character dying for such a stupid reason. Still, he is content with what he is and what he has done so far, and that''s what matters to him the most. Guess I will be a loser for all of eternity Guess I will be a loser for all of eternity Scene: In the Bar, Liam with his friends and girlfriend for who knows what reason now "Yeahh I keep telling you but you never listen!" "Of course, Olivia, we always listen to you. Why the hell do you think we are in this situation then? You stupid bast-" "Now, now, Eric, calm down. That''s unusual for you dude. I''m sure my girlfriend has reasons for it." "Tch, don''t pretend like you understand me, Liam." "...right, I forgot you''re salty about uhh... what is it? That one time when a guy pushed onto you unknowingly and I just let him go like a normal person? Damn." Olivia sighs very hard after hearing that one situation she really doesn''t want to talk about with her friends around but is still apparently very angry about it. "WHAT? So now I''m at fault for not wanting you to stand up for ME? or us? God, why did I date such a sufferable person?" The whole atmosphere becomes awkward right after she said, no, and declared those words, as if saying anything will now only worsen the lover''s quarrel. "Whatever, let''s just end this meaningless conversation here." Just when Liam was about to go to his usual workplace, Eric interrupted him as if it was the last thing he could do to a person who was his best friend in his high school. Narrator''s note: Eric my boy. This is totally what he really did. "Hey, Liam! Stop, man, let me come too." "To score chicks? If not, I don''t see why you need to tag onto me or are you perhaps feeling pi-" "Stop, stop, stop. It''s not that, okay? I already had plans of going to a bar; it just so happens you also work in that bar, okay?" "Whatever, since you''re coming, help me with the chores too." ''Might as well make him work and do something actually good for me...'' "..." "..." So, as you can clearly visualize, the boys visited the boy all while being silent in a very city which spells vibrant to its very core but also depressing enough, that it''s known as the "Melancholy of Seas." "There! My boy Liam, go do the chores immediately, the big bosses have come to this place." Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings. ''Ah, so you don''t want an outsider in the dealings huh, well not that it''s a bad thing for you I guess.'' "Yeah, right on, chief. Let''s go, Eric, I doubt Chief will care too much about us right now." "Seems like it, is it always lively around these places? Everything''s so purple, pink, and red, it''s such a vibe, man." "Well if you have the money to spend here, sure, I guess so." "...right, yeah we college students sure have it hard, huh?" "..." Scour, tink, tink. "You always do this, Liam? I thought you were a clerk?" Narrator''s note: Frick, yeah I forgot, we got scammed! Author what are you doing?! "Cleaning is my little dirty secret, that''s all." Bro said it like he had been waiting for an eternity for this joke, but that just made Eric''s face go deep in the gutter as he wondered what he could do to his friend, Liam, considering what and all happened these past days. "Right, never expected to hear an unlaughable pun from you of all people, regardless of that, what do you say we do something different?" "Like?" "Oh, y''know what I''m talking about, the business dealings your boss, I mean chief, got going." Eric truly didn''t know that such a rash decision would come back to bite him in so many ways that on his deathbed, all he wished was to go back in time and never go to that bar in his entire life. Ignorance sure is the most beautiful thing in the world. "Mmm, yeah why not, I have been feeling kind of bad, let''s just get some of those b190#''s series of Artificial Vodkas... it''s in the top corner, yeah." Liam and Eric after paying the security machine that''s guarding the Vodka''s cells, have gone to experience the wonder that is eavesdropping. "Right?? That girl is so fricking meannn man, did you see what she did to me therrre? She ashamed me, dude? Who the frick does that?" "Even though you are the one who started it... you sure are self-conscious and quick to get drunk, how are you like this anyway?" "Forget it, do you hear the voices I have been hearing?" "Voices?" "Yeah, even when I''m sober, these shitty alien-like things are killing me." "Got no idea what you''re on about, mind visiting the doctors?" "Nah, it''s fine, it''s probably nothing right?" Narrator''s note: Does his parents not teach him red flags in life??? "What are you two doing here!" "Shit." "Yeah, we are just gonna, go and take a break, you know..." "Huh huh, This is the 51''st White Tiger Corps in charge! I advise you to leave these columns or ELSE, I have to take action for invading private property." "Yes, sir! Let''s just go, Liam, you''re drunk too, no reason to do over-the-top things." "..." Boom! BAM! BOOOM! The explosions have gone off like firecrackers on an extravagant festival, the buildings have fallen, the cop before is now giving orders to his subordinates and everything that seemed fine is now falling into complete chaos. "Damn it, not at this time... Those suckers of the "Ironclad Foundation of Freedom" really don''t have patience huh, well, this is all up for you, Liam." "This is the best I could do. You either accept me as a monster or you can wake up." A giant monster that seemed to be a hybrid of an Iron Witches, Dark Species, and the infamous time species seemed to be reflected in Liam''s pupils. Although Liam is indeed drunk, he can clearly see that this is the product of a bio-engineered weapon suited for the next war of calamities. He was so scared that he didn''t care about Eric and started to run. The monster seeing this as an answer, said one last thing before saying this. "Wake up, Liam. Your Life is in your own hands, don''t blame anyone." "Don''t -----****" In the Imperial Year, 2075, Liam was found dead in an alleyway, most likely due to an alpha member and this being the only memory retrieved from the target''s brain, proving even more so how fearsome it is to run against the alpha legion. The people whom he considered as friends, and even acquaintances, had been forcefully removed from all memories of him by the orders of the High Council of the Imperial Anousiotita centered around the New Greek. ----CHAPTER 1 ENDED, YEAH THIS IS ALL A DREAM CONSPIRACY AT PEAK IK---- ( don''t worry I hate those types of tropes :) ) War and Heaven War and Heaven Scene: At the Alpha Legion headquarters sometime after confiscating the [REDACTED] Stone. The building was just like any other skyscraper that surrounds it, it was plain, ugly, and just a copy of every single skyscraper that surrounds it, yet that''s the place where a century-old war plan will finally unfold. --At the meeting place with 5 out of 7 executives and one commander suspiciously not of human physique. All Numbered ones: we welcome the Overlord! Commander: Mm, I will get right into business, As you may know, we are losing the infiltration plans on the White Tigers and the Blood Hounds. Narrator note: Those are one of the most powerful cop forces Number 4: It''s all my fault! If only I had controlled myself and not killed that worthless bug... Number 5: Hmph, of course, someone as middle-headed as you will do that, and no because of you, we are behind on our tracks. Number 6: Exactly! I say we get rid of Number 4''s title. Number 5: ...Tch, already ganged up against me like a bitch huh? It''s all up to the commander y''know? Why are you trying to influence his thoughts here, you inferior numbers?! Commander: We are here to discuss that problem and not find who is to blame like humans, are you people not even going to rectify your mistakes?! Seeing as the commander had no thoughts on removing the ever-so-aggressive number 4, the inferior numbers had backed down. Number 3: To think I will have to ponder over with insects like you... it''s... well I guess I have to get used to it now. Number 4: So I assume you must have some ideas for you to talk this amazingly? Number 3: Indeed I do! We just ignore them. Number 4, 5, 6: ...!!! Number 3: We already have 2 queens on our hands if we ignore the commander and number 1, so why must we care for some measly pawns getting in our way? We will proceed with the plan. Number 4: Mm. I agree, I also thought of that, although I didn''t think a fellow Numbered would consider it too. Numbers 5 and 6 facing the overwhelming pressure from both the superior numbers, accepted the forced-down results too and as such, the meeting was put to a close and all numbers were shifted to various tasks for them to do. This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report. Commander: Mm, this really will be more exciting than the thousand-year-old war!!!, I can''t wait to see how you will move, my dear friend [REDACTED INFORMATION]. *****End of Scene***** Scene: The Club Liam worked for before. Olivia, Eric, and some other of his friends are gathered up at one of the many tables at the establishment. Olivia: It seems like Liam really is dead... Eric: ...I really wish I spent more time with him, to think he would get hit by those death mercenaries... He didn''t deserve it, man. Olivia: ...Yeah, he deserved somewhat better. Eric: ...So Why did you call upon us? I can more or less see that it''s not about Liam. Olivia: Mm why do you say it like that? My first concern was Liam, it''s just that the dead must rest and we have more important matters at hand. Eric: Such as? Olivia: First, let me introduce you to Taijin and Vice! Clap Clap Clap Eric: Sure... whooo yeah...! Taijin: I guess we can talk now? Hearing you 2 talk is fricking so annoying, the hell are you guys friends for? Jesus dude. Vice: Just get me a drink, do you know how long we scouted this area for? Eric: Guess they are your henchmen, young lady? Olivia the young lady: Mm, can''t say that, they are just my friends y''know? Eric: You have unusual friends, I''m sure Liam hasn''t heard of it either huh? Olivia: No you''re wrong about that, he does know. He knows a lot more about me than you. Eric: ... I hope you aren''t desecrating the death. Olivia: Now, the problem is the arms you have right? Eric: Right. As long as I can get enough money to move to the United Federation and live in a stable normal life, I''m all up for it. Olivia: Of course, as long as you show the location of it, we will send you there safely. Eric: Follow me. To Eric''s surprise, after showing them the location which is not long away from the club, they transferred the money right away to his digital wallet. Olivia: One last question before we say goodbye for good, this is found by Liam, isn''t it? A devious expression formed on Olivia''s face as if she was salivating over a very healthy prey waiting for its demise. Eric: I found it. A plain and simple comment but Olivia knows there is more to this convoluted problem at hand. Olivia: Guess so huh, I thought this was his present to me. Eric: ...! What? Are you stupid? Why would he give this treasure to you? Especially after what you did to him? Olivia: huh, there is no reason to be this defensive when you didn''t like getting involved in our relationship y''know? Eric:... Olivia: Well it''s fine, tell me this now, you were there when he was called didn''t you? I will even go as far as to say, you are the one who killed him, didn''t you? Eric: There is no benefit for me to do that no? Olivia: Unless there was greediness so big that it overwhelmed your morals and now you''re trying to soften it up by running away? Seeing as Olivia is trying her hardest to not make him leave by spewing these nonsensical things, he goes for the root of the question. Eric: just what did you want from me now Olivia? I consider you as a friend y''know. Olivia: Haha that''s a good line but I don''t, so, sorry. Well as for your question, nothing much, just wondering how you can get into the Alpha legion, the one and only fearsome bastards and everyone''s favorite nightmare fuel''s fucking military storage location which apparently has no guards for it? surprise surprise? Eric: I will be going now. Olivia: Ha! What a pathetic man you are really. To betray one''s own organization, ratting out the enemy''s heavy armaments is truly an amazing thing to do, isn''t it? Does it sting? Or perhaps the guilt of getting your friend killed is even more so? Not able to handle it anymore, Eric walked away as the three observant eyes watched until he went all the way straight to the port, probably hoping to drown his guilt with dozens of expensive Vodkas along his way to the Federation of Paradise. Nostalgia is Drugs babyy Nostalgia is a drug Scene: [REDACTED INFORMATION] right after Liam''s death. ''I never felt... so liberated?'' ''It feels so strange but it feels as if nothing matters anymore...'' ''But then again... I feel somehow heavy as if all my past statements and feelings are wrong '' ''It feels as if all I did in my life was nothing but mistakes and regrets. The young man pondered this question repeatedly until he was sent to a room specifically made just for him from [#*** #]. '' "We meet again, Liam." In front of Liam is someone so powerful, that just uttering the name alone will bring disasters upon all over Humanity, He is one of the Kings of [YOU DON''T DESERVE THIS INFORMATION-] "Again?" The young man pondered very deeply but couldn''t think of a single memory of him, not even those artificial memories that his brain feeds him from time to time. If he closes his eyes, it''s as if the person sitting in front of him doesn''t exist at all. "Indeed, this is the 2nd time we meet, as someone who is not a human, you are blessed very deeply" The words he said were so shocking to Liam that he chose to ignore most of them since trying to understand just made his consciousness slip away even more. "...Do I have some type of contract with you?" The being just smiled evading the question. "Aren''t I dead?" Seeing as he got no answers to his previous question, he tried asking the question he thought was sensible. "Indeed, this is apparently the end of the road for people like you." "Apparently?" "Indeed, for your kind at least, tell me, do you wish to go outside?" "Outside...?" "Yes, you are a peculiar subject see, I am the [REDACTED INFORMATION], so I know the future, well kind of, just pattern recognition if you will." ? ? ? "I didn''t hear correctly what you said, did you just... censor yourself?" "... Hahahahahahshheh" That prideful and powerful being smiled so deviously as if it was the funniest joke he could ever heard while also being something he had a peculiar nostalgia over. "No, I didn''t censor myself, although you will come to know soon, so rest assured Traveler, you will have a fantastic adventure the outside, do you wish to go?" "You... are surely trying your hardest to get me off here and go to that "outside" for whatever reason but it''s fine. Just answer me this, why do I feel so... empty? What is this emotion I''m feeling? Am I allowed to feel like this?" Love this novel? Read it on Royal Road to ensure the author gets credit. "Mm, well as a higher being, I wouldn''t know keke but you can ask the humans there" "Do I sign a contract then? Or are you just telling me my destination which I just have to go regardless of what my decision Is?" "Well not really, it''s your choice, what''s the fun otherwise right?" The being looked to be feeling really happy with the turn of events but it is still very hard to get a real grasp over his physique. Suddenly Lion''s dead eyes seemed to burn again, seeing this for the first time, the uneven physique showed a sign of surprise which slowly faded to nothingness of emotion. "Y''know what? Fuck you. I lived my entire life with my own principles and I won''t live my life as a fricking slave with this freebie nonsense you''re toying with me, you stupid bastard" "Hehe look at what we have here, well you are right, guess you will be going for the 3rd time then, next time, I hope you will be given "the access", in that way, We will have a pleasant conversation, Unique [REDACTED], We will meet again..." "But before that, let me impart a little memory to you, remember this: Nothing''s Real inside the box." "Wait- I want to die- wai-" As such, Liam''s consciousness finally faded away and we lost control of the live feed, we hope you will watch us again at 5 PM every weekend!!! Now the ad segment will beg--- Ahem. Oh right forget that, it''s me, the Narrator''s fault, let''s continue! ----suspicion starts over---- Scene: The time a lover''s drama happened. "It could have been soo easy! Yet, all you did was mope around and act all narcissistic as if all that matters in this world is your own problems, you don''t think we ever had problems, Liam?" The young lady appears to be of American descent with slight brunette hair and an aesthetic choice of dress that screams fashion as if it''s still 1800 with a tight bodice, full skirt of intricate lace patterns, high neckline, and long sleeves. Ehh wai- "Tch, so What? At least I talked it out, while what did you guys do? You kept it to yourself damn it, how the hell would I know then?" Ahh wrong cassette! Damn the government. The man who replied also seems to be in his 20s, although he doesn''t appear American eno----- ''Wait... Why do I feel so nostalgic about this?'' To Liam, it all crashing down. Unless one experienced depersonalization, this type of experience could never be put into words. "Hey, you guys.. " "Don''t butt in he-" "Don''t butt in he-" "What the- Well at least we are in sync on outsiders like him." "...wait No, this isn''t? What is happening" Liam just holds onto one sentence this time: "ThIs IS NoT rEaL." "Not when you guys start involvi---" "SHUT UP." "Wha-" "Just shut up you piece of shit who did nothing but watch and now that we have broken up, you''re trying to fan the flames huh? Guess you slept with her too?" "What''s with you...? Liam you know we would nev-" "Ah! Eric, why are you being defensive over it? When were you a guy like that? Ahh, I really wanted this to be real... You, Olivia, and all these people seeing us..." Feeling like this is never going anywhere, Liam starts to distance himself to deliver a final blow and head to God knows where. but he couldn''t take it anymore. "Hahaa yeah Olivia, is it fun bitch? Was it fun seeing me fall madly in love with you and to do anything for you while you went around whoring yourself out? Damn it, I knew it! Okay? (Sobs) I knew it... I knew you were not laughing with me, I know you don''t like me and yet... I hoped what I thought was real, I hoped I would ignore all those small stuff and that then, I would be all fine!!" "But...This is all just an illusion, an illusion made to protect myself, protect my younger self by daydreaming and ignoring reality... In that process I lost myself, I finally understood the emptiness in my heart" '' This isn''t real... no one here is real... I''m not real, at least they were just figments of my memories, or perhaps the computer-generated NPC''s but what about me? Even though I''m physically real, mentally it''s all over, I don''t feel anything now, nothing''s real anymore. '' "I know that you are a good person but I sincerely hope this will be our lost contact" "Yeah be all sentimental until the end, I''m sure it makes you feel better you bastard" And so, having said what he wanted to, he finally understood what his past self meant. He wants to leave it all behind and kill himself by any means even if he isn''t conscious of it, so he left the scene of the drama and returned to his normal clerk job at the not-so-famous midnight bar. [THE FIRST ADMINISTRATOR] AWAITS YOUR RETURN. -----PrOloGUe fINiSheD----- Im on TV? I''m on the TV? Scene: [REDACTED INFORMATION] "We meet again, Liam." "Ah yes, guess killing myself with a lot of drugs worked, who could have known" A somewhat grim yet confident smile rose upon Liam''s lip. "Yes, now I hope you would like to venture outside?" "Mm, before that, There are a lot of questions I want to ask-" "Yes, I understand, I also need you to pay a price for venturing outside, hehe although with my authority, that''s no problem..." "The catch Is?" "It''s simple, you get to ask me only 3 questions and right after I answer those, you will be transmigrated into someone''s body, ah don''t worry about the details it''s fine." ''I don''t know who this is but I understand now that I can''t live in a world that I already know is fake, I need to go to the real world no matter what.'' "Alright, first off, who are you? I assume I can access that information now" "That depends on you, of course, I''m the [ADMINISTRATOR] Of the First Firewall." "[ADMINISTRATOR]? What-?" "Second question please" "Tch, alright, Tell me about my original world" "Oh? You''re interested in that world even though it''s not the real world?" The [ADMINISTRATOR] seemed to have a look of disbelief but soon turned to his jovial-looking nature. "Well if that''s your question, then I hope you won''t be disappointed, your world is nothing more than a mirage of the real world, just an illusion, of course, the people themselves are not always illusions but, indeed, they are nonetheless not real." Before giving any chances to Liam to question him, the strange being decided to jump shift into the next question. "Next question." "Tell me about the Outside." "The Outside huh, I wouldn''t say is a wonderful world but it is far more advanced than your world, Gods, angels, demons, and many other races exist and may even co-exist with each other sometimes. It is the era that is the definition of change and mainly the 3000 era prophecy is finally beginning to blossom and you will be the main cause of it. All alone at the end of the blood river, I hope you can show me the power of the Andr---" The last few words are dizzy to Liam who is unable to think as he is torn apart and stitched together in something like a dimensional warp machine which was a popular up-and-coming invention in his past world, but now, even though everything is too quick for Liam, it''s his new adventure, one could even say. Unauthorized usage: this narrative is on Amazon without the author''s consent. Report any sightings. ---Suspicion grows even more--- Scene: A massive bedroom of ??? Liam woke up in much of a doze as he was in that strange environment which is reminiscent of the strange drug hallucinogen he had while trying to kill himself but he is still calm as ever, having already let go of everything in his past life and accept it all, while still living his own life dictated by none, Liam strives to move forward. ''...this is me? Ah right, he did tell me something about transmigration. So this is someone else huh, I wonder what happened to the original one.'' The ''Man'' looking into the mirror was a handsome lad with brunette hair, a build of a bodybuilder, and a height of around 1.8 - 2 meters, with a fashion sense of gentlemen with suits and pants. What he missed was his new name now. Liam never remembered having a parent... his lost memory was...? ''What the Why can I only remember until my ex-girlfriend''s drama?'' The Government-hating guy: Ah! Of course, you do, that''s the start of this plot after all, these tv serial guys are getting good with these 5D jokes huh honey? ''Ahh whatever, first let''s sort out my current situation, what is with this rich-ass mansion anyway, why is the room so big?'' Just when he was thinking that an old man probably 60 or 70 years of age, came into the room without any prior notice. "What the-- no... it couldn''t be... Oh lord, help me!" The old man who just took a glance at Liam, ran with all his might to who knows where but from his reaction, now Liam wasn''t sure if his appearance was normal in this world. Overall He is dying to see out this new ''real world, how different would it be? How much change and miracles would he see in this world? Those things are gnawing at his mind with excitement all the time and such a small thing couldn''t possibly overthrow Liam''s mentality. ''Although he does look scared, what did I do?'' Soon, he is going to learn the first law of any place. The dead don''t come back to life. The divine rule shouldn''t be broken especially in a world where the Gods are real. Soon, an army of people who seemed to have armor too advanced for Liam to know what it is charged in and pinned him to the walls without even giving him a chance to speak, all Liam could see was the army itself and a man so grand in attire but still acted as if he was a captive who resents everything he did. All that happened around 1 second to 3 seconds. As such, Liam''s hope of a new brave world is all gone to dust, as he is now on his way to the 4th death in his eternal lifetime. ----Suspicion? I don''t have the time--- Scene: Great Prison Hall of NordWitch When Liam woke up from what seemed like an eternity of beatings and immediate sedative after all that, all he could see was complete darkness. ''Where am I? damn it, why is it so dark?'' Liam tried his hardest to move around but what seemed like an invisible shackle restrained him completely making him unable to even move his body in anyways Just when he was about to lose all hope and even about to think about how to kill himself, he heard a couple of footsteps heading towards him, surprisingly this wasn''t sound proof as he thought. "Yo, The infamous dead man seems to be looking very alive right now" "Yes, he looks like a child full of vitality just waking up" The two grunts enjoyed their musing while they ridiculed Liam but Liam knew that the best thing to do right now was to get information, so he decided to ask them with much humility. "Ha.. Where am I?" "Ha? This crazy bastard, how could he not know this place" "Whatever, He is going to die anyway, This is the Requiem Judgement Palace for the sinful. Be glad that you are still alive, most die right away when they come here after all." Hearing this, Liam''s colorful world of the Outside had all but vanished, it is now twisted to the very core. "What-? Why? What did I do? I wasn''t even able to look outside, why am I?" "Right right, you can shut up, we are not gonna sympathize with you even if you told you you are fake, we fired enough people for doing these kinds of shitty things" "That''s not- ahh fuck, forget it" "Oh right, you''re going to the head researchers lab after this, enjoy your hell, prisoner 456". The guards smiled so deviously that even Liam who was still not able to see anything can feel the intensity of the situation he is in. As such the first day of Liam''s outings has ended.
