*************************WARNING******************************
Despite the warnings going off inside of my head, I started explaining everything to them.
"I'm not from this world." As soon as those words left my lips, my heart felt like it was being squeezed with a vice grip.
I clutched at my chest as I used the wall behind me for support.
"What?" There was a sardonic tone to Saya's voice, her eyes narrowed as she stood right next to me. "I guess I'm not crazy." Saya wrapped her hands around my throat. "I hate liars."
The world was bending and twisting in strange and unprecedented ways. While Saya's hands were tightening around my throat at a slow and steady pace.
"I'm not lying.. This world is called 'Help?! My Harem is Trying to Kill Me…" The warning message only grew louder and more distorted. My head felt like it was splitting apart, and the pain was almost unbearable. "Why do you think there's only two guys in an all girl school?"
"I don't care." Saya responded bluntly, placing emphasis on each word. She tightened around my throat even further. "Fuck this world. We'll both be gone soon."
Saya's dead empty eyes reflected my appearance. The reflection I saw in Saya's eyes was of me. Weak, disoriented, exhausted, cowardly.
This is who I am. Not a Harem king, not a hero. Just pathetic. Captain-Save-A-Hoe is too good of a title for me.
As I looked at Saya, the heavy weight of guilt crushed me.
Just like last time.. I'm useless again. I can't save her.I reached out and touched Saya's face, tears filling my eyes. "I'm sorry."
Saya's body shook, and her grip loosened. Her face went through a myriad of changes in only a few seconds. "Wha-"
Saya's words were cut off when Riri pushed her to the ground.
Riri turned to look at me, her eyes red and puffy. A scowl painted her delicate face, but her eyes told a different story. There were conflicting emotions in the light brown jewels that are her eyes.
"The goal of the game is to build a harem."
******************WARNING*************
My vision started to turn red, and I could feel blood rushing to my face.
Saya got off the ground and tackled Riri to the ground. "You fucking bitch!"
Riri and Saya were rolling on the ground, scratching and punching each other.
"Get the fuck off of me!" Riri grabbed a handful of Saya's hair and was trying to steer her away as Saya continued haphazardly attacking her.
No matter what I do I always fail. Why? What am I missing?
It took almost all of my strength to push myself off of the wall.
"If it wasn't for you!" Saya sounded like a banshee wailing at the top of her lungs… "If it wasn't for you…"
I have to stop them. I just have to get them to listen long enough.
I made it where Saya and Riri were fighting on the ground, but I didn't have the strength to stop them. Instead, I toppled over and fell on top of them.
I couldn't hear what Riri and Saya were saying, but it looked like they were still screaming, but not at each other. They were screaming at me, but, their faces weren't angry, they actually looked concerned?
Even though I couldn't hear what they were saying, I continued to speak anyway. I told them everything. About my other world, the game, their characters, the harsh requirements and restrictions, the council of gods, Lilia, my journey until now, everything.
By the time I had finished explaining everything, I was lying motionless on the ground. My body felt cold, yet burned in irregular intervals. My vision continuously faded in and out, the taste of iron filled my mouth, my head was throbbing, and my ears were ringing from the nonstop twisted announcements of the system.

Despite the horrible condition I'm in, a twisted smile floated onto my face.
I finally got one up on this shitty world, this shitty system and the shitty council of gods and Lilia.
The system announcements screeched one last time inside of my head, almost knocking me unconscious. I didn't know how long I laid in silence, but the system announcement came back. It was no longer disjointed and scratchy, it was clear and concise, as stark contrast from the cheerful tone of before.
*******************THE PLAYER HAS INCURRED THE WRAITH OF KRONOS****************
And with that final announcement, I fainted.
