"NANI?!"
"Yup...So you want in?"
"Do you have any idea how cliché this is?"
"What do you mean?"
"Ahem, um, anime?"
God's eyes went wide, realizing how so many anime have done this trope.
"...Damn, didn't realize that. *sigh* Still want in?"
"Yup, but you need to give me a bit of info about this world because I don't want to go somewhere without any knowledge. Don't want to do something normal in my world which is a grave crime on that world."
"Yeah that's covered."
"...Sooo?"
"What?"
"Where's the info?"
"The basic info that you'll need will get to you when you go into the new world. Plus, you don't want to bore the readers."
"..."
"..."
"What?"
"What?"
"..."
"..."
"Ah fuck it..."
"Moving on..."
After breaking the fourth wall, God gave Lore a piece of paper.
"Uh, what is this?"
The piece of paper has lists of what seems to be names of abilities.
"To make things interesting, and to make up with the disadvantage of being a new fish in the pond, take 3 abilities from that list. Its from your favorite game, D&D."
"Great, so I'm becoming op?"
"In a way, don't worry, there are a lot more people that are stronger than you when you start out. But know that your life will be an interesting one."
"So, I have one life?"
"Pretty much. Don't worry, you go back here once your adventure has ended."
Lore handed God the piece of paper with 3 names of abilities encircled: Lucky, Fade Away, and Bountiful Luck.
"So, you like being the support guy, right?"
"And also, being the glass canon, why?"
"What's your favorite school of magic?"
"Though I don't prefer magic, I am quite interested in transmutation."
"Ah, the school of magic focused on turning one thing to another. You're in luck Lore, you are one of a kind."
"Nice...So, do I sign something? Or do I have to shake your hand? Or be slapped by you? Or-"
As Lore was describing possible ways to transport himself to the other world, God was writing down something on the clipboard. When he is done, Lore have already stated 25 or so ways to transport himself there.
"Or maybe there's a dragon that could fly me there! Or I blink and then I suddenly appear there! Or-"
"Or you could just exit the door in this office."
"...Or that."
"Well then?"
Lore finishes his tea, he says his goodbyes and opens the door. With fire in his eyes and excitement in his hearth, he strode forth and finds himself in a city street with the style of the medieval times. It looks like its in the late afternoon. Lore looks back to the door and notices that the building he went out of was a jewelry shop named "Pandora's Box".
/Pandora's Box huh... wait, I can recognize the language here! Nice! No need to learn a new one! Now, what to do.../
Lore is excited because it's just like what he dreamed of. He walked around the city, which he found out is named "The Iron Serpent Kingdom". He met many creatures which inhabit the city.
The Tabaxi, tiger people in a nutshell, and they sound exactly like the Khajiit. The Elves, long eared hotties that are naturally adept in the arcane and their everlasting drive to be perfect. The Orcs and Goliaths, big and tough creatures that scream testosterone and strength. The Gnomes and Halflings, small people that are known to be kind and smart. The Dwarves, loyal, hardworking, and also the best artisans that could walk the world. The Tieflings, devilish creatures that are could scare anyone with their presence alone; though their personality can be the opposite of their looks. And of course, the Humans; the most common race in most fantasy worlds. Which begs the question, what does Lore look like?
As Lore contemplated this, he looks at a shops window to see his reflection; and he is amazed.
He has brown wavy hair, matching his smooth brown eyes. He wore light armor with a blue shirt underneath tough yet flexible pants, and a cool-looking steel short-sword. He looks better than before.
{This is what you look like (Not mine but since i'm bad at drawing and kinda lacking at appearance explanation, I opt to borrow pics that fit the bill of the character) (from creativeuncut.com): https://www.pinterest.ph/pin/367747125816052084/}
As he is basking at his looks, doing cool poses and making faces, a giant shadow encompasses him. Lore looks up to see a giant flying ship. The ship in question bore the insignia and the flag that the city had, but what's more curious is what the ship is carrying.
It seemed to be people, bounded by chains connected to their necks, arms, and legs. They seem to be exhausted, depressed, and physically abused. The crew looks well equipped, leagues better than what Lore has. A crew member then happily whips a woman chained to the side, her screams reaching Lore's ears as the ship passes by. That's all Lore's sees from this angle, and he doesn't want to investigate further.
/Slavery exists in this world too huh, I wonder if this is a social norm.../
As he is contemplating at what he saw, a towering figure looms over in front of him; giving of a menacing aura. Lore slowly and terrifyingly looks up to a male Goliath, 10 feet tall, blue skin, immense muscles, weird tattoos, and a scary attitude. The Goliath then picks Lore up with ease until he is at face level with him.
"What were you doing weakling?"
The Goliath's voice is low, rough, and intimidating. Confusion showed in Lore's eyes because he didn't do anything bad to his knowledge. Lore fought his fear and looked at the Goliath's eyes with confidence; a feat that he learned from an acting club.
"What do you mean by that? I didn't do anything bad."
"Oh yeah?"
"Yeah"
"Then how do you explain that."
He points down at the window where Lore found out about his looks; and it is embarrassing. From this angle, Lore now realized that he had been doing poses and faces in front of the main window of a women's clothing store; a store that significantly sells women's underwear. Behind the window showed many women glaring daggers at Lore; and then Lore looks at the door. Standing at the door of the store stands an incredibly angry woman with a pin on her breast area with the words "Manager".
/Oooooooh fffuuuuccckkk mmmmeeee... I'm so dead. Dammit my ignorance! I can't go back from this can I? Ah fuck the manager's walking to me. What should I say? Should I even speak? Dammit! First day on another world and my reputation already went to shit./
"So, this is the pervert that has been harassing our fine store eh?"
"...Um...This is a misunderstanding?"
"You think saying that will help you?"
"...no..."
"*sigh* Grog, you know what to do with these type of people, right?"
"Yes ma'am!"
The Goliath then carried Lore and started walking.
/Shit, the damn Goliath is security, I thought that I can bribe him...wait a minute, do I even have any money?/
The Goliath then turned to an alleyway and Lore's confidence dropped to rock bottom.
/Oh shit, this is an alleyway... fuck I think i'm about to get mugged.../
The Goliath then threw Lore down; the force great enough that he could hear cracks of bone from Lore. Before Lore can retaliate, he is met with a very big war hammer head; knocking Lore out.
--------------------
Lore wakes up to a cell, no armor, no sword and no money. He is wearing his blue shirt, brown pants, and leather shoes that he didn't know where it came from. He then put his and on his ribs, and the pain is incredible. After a few moments with himself, a guard walks by his cell and says:
"Oh look, the new guy woke up. Hey there, welcome to prison you damn pervert."
before he continues walking.
/Aaaaaand i'm in jail... fuck me, and this is my first day... *sigh* I thought i'm lucky.../
Lore looked around his cell. It is larger than what he expected, with a bed, a small table with a drawer, an old wooden chair, and finally a window at the top sealed off with iron bars; like how the front is. The thick iron bars on the front of the room is spaced enough to put an arm trough, but not enough for the rest of the body. The door looks more secure and durable, with a hefty looking lock securing it. The window is showing the soothing moonlight of the sky and Lore accepted his fate and returns to sleep...and as he closes his eyes and almost gets taken by sleep, he hears this:
[Curse ability has activated]
A voice ringed inside his head, a voice just like his own. Lore's eyes then opened, bloodshot and looking like he lost his sanity.
/Am i going crazy?! And what's this about a curse ability?/
