It's dark, and it's loud... No, it's not loud it's eerily silent to the point that i hear different sounds.
Ah, so is this what is beyond that? Is this what Einstein mean? Oh, how peaceful if only I can be here forever with no end, just me and this darkness.
How comforting this is...
I was supposed to land to planet Erilum, but it seems like I got sucked into that blackhole. My name is Aester Dark a researcher, a scientist, an astronaut and an inventor of RS97x1 that is also known as Miracle 5 a machine that allows humanity to traverse through space faster and can change the atmosphere to a certain degree thus allowing us, Humans, who are being eaten by their curiosity if it is possible to live through a different planet, to use it and travel to a newly discovered planet, planet Erilum, without much issue. The machine uses the concept of the different time zones of each country to slow down our aging and remove a certain percentage of our brain limiter, giving us much more space in our brain to store knowledge that leads to new discoveries. It truly is a wonder, I was in a trance while I was making Miracle 5 and so,
I decided to lead the expedition myself as I am the one who knows every function of the machine, after traversing for one and a half year, we are almost at Erilum when suddenly an asteroid for god knows where it came from, suddenly crashed into Miracle 5 disrupting it's function and balance.
And as we struggle and struggle for who knows how long, my crew died one by one leaving me, all alone, and when I was about to run out of methods to survive, a blackhole appears out of nowhere and sucked me in...
Leaving me here in this dark and silent place..
"Are you done with your sentiment, child?" A sudden voice called out, but what's shocking is, I wasn't shocked at all, 'how the fuck does that even make sense?'
"For i have let your subconscious to know that i am here", the voice replied.
"...is that so?" I questioned, with sarcasm glazing my tone
"Hoho, you are inside your mind space, child. That's the reason why your subconsciousness' aware of my presence" the man replied, with a trace of amusement glazing his tone
"So, you're basically an outsider, then why are you here?" I asked curtly, annoyed that he showed up again, out of nowhere.
"Because you let me"
"What?" I asked, confused.
"You're confused, I see. But fear not for I shall explain," the man replied with a hint of amusement
"..."
...Here he goes again, ugh so damn annoying
"You do know about the concept of lucid dreaming, don't you?"
"..."
Does he think I'm an idiot?
"This space is similar to the space that people enters when they are in that state but the only difference is that your consciousness is not the one that's being dragged to the dream, but your soul stays here and a part of this space itself, in other words this space is your domain, your territory and your resting place.."
....
The man continues his explanation further about how this space is my own 'training space' or 'resting place' and how I have full access to it and yada yada yada
....
"... So basically, I'm dead?"
"...yes" he replied and I think he just averted his gaze, was that just my imagination?
"And you even babbled about useless things you could have tell me from the start" i retorted
"How rude... Oh well, we don't have much time to chit chat here so I'm gonna start now"
"Start what? Wait... Hey! What the hell? I thought this is my domain then why the fuck are my surroundings changing without my permission?!"
This man really is starting to piss me off, he started appearing if I am right about 6 days ago, although I'm sure since I've been counting.
"Hoho, who knows~"
"You bastard!!"
"Now now don't be like that, you're gonna start training here, you will learn the things there is to know about economy, business marketing, law, strategy, psychology, medicine and all the other things you have learned along with learning sports, martial arts and other things you haven't learned yet-"
"Haven't learned? Ha, how funny.. I started learning ever since I was in my mother's womb and spoke 28 languages at the age of 17, graduated at 15 and became a renowned researcher at 18, and you're telling me to re-learn all those? Don't joke with me" I replied arrogantl- no, I'm stating facts.
The man sighed and replied, "ha, I know child but I'm just a messenger even I do not know what this is all for.."
"... By that, you mean someone ordered you?"
I asked, somewhat suspicious. I'm kinda curious about his identity, but just like I said, just kinda.
The man chucked and replied, "Haha, who knows~ but I'm sure you already get the gist of things, no? I mean, you are a genius just like what you said."
That's right, actually I already know I'm just in a state of denial trying to deny all this things that seems illogical, things that do not make sense that it betrayed my sense of reality... I wondered if this place, that my current state is indeed a space inside me, or just a work of my father...
That's right, father has the mind space brain project, a project that is still ongoing and haven't been perfected yet, at first I hoped that maybe I'm just inside that glass cabin and everything is just a culmination of my imagination that has accumulated all throughout the years, but no... I know, I know it's not but I want to deny it. I want to prove that everything I have learned are not for naught, that I have lived a life according to what I truly wanted, that I have lived fulfilling it, fulfilling the life of knowing the truth about the world, yes I'm indeed a maniac about learning and becoming the best at everything I do is my goal from the very start, oh well who wouldn't want that anyways?
Haiz, why am I even being overdramatic? This is just so not me...
Let's just go with the flow for now... Right.
Days passed, I re-learned everything along with other knowledge that quite surprised me, yeah quiet.
And just like that 232 years, 5 days 3 hours and 5 seconds after that, here I am again...
Along with the annoying man with no face... Ugh, creeps. He gave me the creeps..
"Did you just think I'm creepy?" He asked, out of nowhere although I'm not that surprised anymore, I mean he keeps appearing for over 2 centuries and three decades, I should be more surprised I lived... Ahem, existed that long in this space.
"..."
The man sighed, "alright, since you have done your part I guess I gotta do mine,"
"What the fuck is up with the way you talk? Shouldn't you sound like some ancient dude or what whatnot?" I asked him mockingly
"Gah, this is just the way I talk I just wanna intimidate you and sound majestic at first, but oh well..." He answered
"I knew it..."
"...What'd ya say?"
"...nothing"
*Sigh* "Listen carefully..."
....
....
....
"So basically, I am getting reborn?" I asked
"That's right, ufufufu" the faceless bastard just smile creepily even though he doesn't have a face I know he smiled... He smiled... Fuck.
"So, where are you sending me? You better send me in a dimension that's suitable for me." I glared at him and stated
"Of course."
In that span of years I was inside in this space I learned about dimensions, yes EXISTING dimensions and not just theory but existed and as you already know, I'm damn excited about it... Ah, the feeling of being the only human who knows about those... 'how disgustingly pleasant'...
"Whoah, you look creepy"
A faceless bastard butted in, how annoying
"Okay, I'm now sending you... To your new world.."
"... Alright."
