| Evening of July 12 - 2035 - Berlin –Kleinn |
I woke up in my bed again.
Then I immediately ran to the bathroom, as I was about to explode at any moment.
Once I sat on the toilet seat I started thinking about many things.
One of those that weighed on me the most was the speech I gave to my soldiers before the battle.
How did I say that stuff like that? How did that words come to my mind? It was an unacceptable speech, but why then did everyone get excited after the speech?
These are speeches that I, in reality, would have repudiated with all of myself.
Yet in the end, however wrong or horrible the things I said maybe, in the end, I did nothing but tell the truth.
It is macabre and unhealthy reasoning, but in the end, the human being is like that.
These are things that we unconsciously have in our blood, but that only some people manage not to end up in them.
We are greedy, jealous and mean.
The human being was the only fatal mistake of nature.
The fact remains that I never thought I could somehow split myself.
I mean: here in the real world, I am Kleinn, a normal boy, with no dangerously violent thoughts. Instead in the game, where I am Attila, a boy that is almost emotionless, cruel and who thinks only of himself.
Could it be true when they say that video games are bad?
Honestly, I think not. But maybe with this game, it could be different.
Oh well, just think like a fool sitting on the toilet.
I got up from the toilet after making a mess.
After I finished settling down I noticed that it was of no use, since it was evening.
So I decided to take my cell phone to see if anyone had called me.
Holy God! Ten missed calls from my mother!
I called the number back as fast as I could.
The answer was almost immediate: << Hello! Hello! Kleinn are you?!?!?! >>
<< Yes mom I am- >>
I didn't even have time to answer: << Luckily it's you Kleinn. Hey love, Kleinn answered his cell phone! >>
It was as if he were calling someone, maybe it was my father, then: << Delayed piece of shit! Why the fuck didn't you answer your cell phone ?! You made us worry to death! >>
<< Yes, forgive me. I was very busy and couldn't answer >>
<< What the fuck were you doing? You were not reachable for more than two weeks! >>
Then my mother made herself heard on the cell phone: << Come on, love, don't insult him. At least we know he's fine >>
<
<< I know, I'm sorry to have made you worry >> I said with sincere repentance.
<< Okay come on, don't worry. Rather, know that we no longer return on 1 September. We were too worried that you weren't answering, so we got some tickets to come earlier >>
Huh? They were so worried that they were interrupting their vacation for me.
<< Don't worry, if you want you can stay there. I'm fine! >>
<< Nha do not worry, we should return the day after tomorrow, in theory,>>
<< No, don't worry. You don't need to interrupt your holidays for me, you can stay there! >>
<< Mh ... Sure? >>
<< Yes, rest assured. I will still have to do it myself and then I like being alone at the end >>
<< Okay, if you tell us. We will be back anyway before but around mid-August, then I'll let you know exactly when >>
<< Ok, then why don't you tell me how it is going there? >>
I kept talking to my parents for a while longer about how their vacation was going.
After a while I finally greeted them.
They are good parents, who have taught me to be respectful of others and polite.
So how did I do that in the game?
That said, since my parents will be back sooner, I can't wait two weeks before playing again. I'll just take a three-day break.
Morning of July 15– 2035 - Berlin –Kleinn |
I spent these days resting and informing myself in detail, as usual, about the period I will go to live.
In short, from what I understand now I am King of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, and around me, there is nothing but enemies. So I need to know more or less what the situation was like at that time.
I took the viewer and put it on my head.
I turned it on and got ready to get back into that horrible but very interesting game.
The loading phase began, which I had never noticed before.
Suddenly, I heard a voice that I wanted so badly to forget.
It was Nadia, that damned artificial intelligence.
He said: << Bravo, you surprised me. I didn't think you could get to this point in such a short time. I can not help but congratulate you >>
<< You are the most hateful thing that has ever happened to me >> I replied << but I accept your compliments >>
<< I could have imagined, however, I'm here to warn you of one thing. Up to now, you have made risky but winning choices. All your decisions, however, were based on the knowledge that you already had. You like history so much that you inform yourself as soon as you can. In short, you already knew how to act, more or less. But I warn you, you have now become King of Jerusalem, so from now on everything you know will not help you much. You have entered the international arena and therefore it is normal that your choices will change the course of history. But it changes even without your permission or intrusion, so be prepared that everything is uncertain here ahead >>
Let's say that after a while I expected it to end like this. It wouldn't have been interesting if I was forced to relive step by step what happened.
<< I understand Nadia, did you come to tell me this? >>
<< And it seems nothing to you? Remember that you are always on the maximum difficulty, so expect many surprises >>
After Nadia said this her voice disappeared.
I have to prepare myself seriously this time.
