I was walking slowly on the road. People were happily talking to each other. While I was walking, I saw some friends talking to each other. Their topic caught my attention.
"Hey, have you guys seen the news?(black-haired boy)
"Which one?"(black-haired girl)
"Today's breaking news. RID published news about the Silverstorm house and Yellowlion house heads wrongdoings.", the Black-haired boy replied.
RID published? RID means Royal Investigation Department. It's an investigation department directly under His Majesty the King. They published news about two dukes?
Yeah, Silverstorm and Yellowlion houses are two duke families. A duke's family holds so much power within the country that if some of them want to go against the king, they can successfully overthrow the king. If the RID decided to go against those two families, then there must be some internal influence.
"They have r*ped a lot of innocent girls and turned them into pr*sti*utes."(Black-haired boy)
"Uwaa. They are scumbags."(black haired girl)
"Do you know Katrina koli, the famous idol?" asked the black-haired boy.
"The one who retired three years ago?"(Blue-haired boy)
"She said in an interview that she was forced to do that kind of thing by those ba**ards. That's why she retired."(Black-haired boy)
"Oh, shit. I was a big fan of hers.By the way, do you have any links?"(blue-haired boy)
"You are a scumbag as well.", the black-haired girl said.
"Hahaha." the black and blue-haired boy laughed.
So, that's how it is. It means they were really bad people. I hope they get punished for what they did.
"Excuse me." A handsome boy said to me.
"Yes?"
"Are you alone? You look like a high school student."(Boy)
"Yeah. I am alone and I am a high school student."
"Oh, isn't this Cantrip's uniform? My little sister goes there too. She is a first year student."(Boy)
"Oh, is that so?"
"Yeah. Oh, what's your name?"(Boy)
"Siren Scarlet."
"Oh, that's really a nice name. Today is my lucky day. I have never thought I would meet a beautiful person like you."(Boy)
"I-Is that also?"
Eh!? What's going on? I am somehow not feeling good. It's a very familiar environment for me.
"But why are you wearing a boy's uniform?"(Boy)
"Because I am a boy."
"Eh!?", the boy was surprised.
"Eh!?"
I knew it. I freaking knew ittttttttttttttttt. He is hitting on me thinking that I am a girl. It happens to me all the time.
"Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa."
I heard someone yelling. I looked at that place. I couldn't believe my eyes. I saw there was a pink-haired girl not really far from me. She looked like she was scared and in front of her there was an orc. Yeah, an orc. I don't know how it ended up here in the middle of the town. Nobody was able to tell up until now. People started running. For some reason, the pink-haired girl wasn't moving.
"Hey, you should run. It's you girl. Runnnnnn."
I started yelling. Nobody is trying to fight with the Orc. I heard 50% of the people are awakened. Yet, everyone is thinking about saving their own life. Nobody is trying to save that girl. The Orc has already killed some people on its way. The pink-haired girl is so scared that she can't move. I have to do something.
"Hey, you. Hey Pinky, get out of there."
I tried to shout again while running toward her. But it's no use. She can't move.The Orc has an axe in its hand. It raised its hand to kill that girl. I get between them.
At that moment, everything became silent. I can clearly see blood coming out of my chest. My vision is getting fuzzy. Oh shit, am I going to die?
I don't know, I somehow feel like I fell on the ground. Please God, just save that girl. I beg you.
I wonder if I die, will my family feel sad? Well, no way, I guess.
Everything became dark. While my vision was getting dark, I saw a person smiling. He was standing far from there. I couldn't see his full face. But I won't be able to forget that smile.
∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆
Where am I? It's dark. It's so dark that I can't even see my hands. What's going on? Last thing I remember is I was trying to save a pink-haired girl. Maybe I have died. It's the after world. I guess I am going to meet an old man. I have seen this kind of situation in a lot of isekai stories.
"Looks like you have the guts to call me an old man."(???)
I heard an old man's voice. But I can't see anything. But for some reason, I feel like I am sitting on the ground.
"Who are you calling, old man, you brat? I am just a few thousand years old", the old man replied.
A few thousand? And he still thinks he is young. How funny.
"Brat, you are playing with my patience. If you do that I will be mad.", said the old man.
Mad? What can he do if I make him mad? Nothing, I guess. I have already died after all.
"Nope. You're alive. I just find you interesting. That's why I called your soul for a few minutes.", the old man replied.
Calling my soul for a few minutes? I guess he was crazy before dying. His family must have gone through a lot.
"Will you shut up for a moment? I don't have much time. Your soul will return to your body soon." the old man shouted. Hearing his voice, it looks like he is frustrated.
I should act as he is saying. Maybe God will give me some cheating skills because of that.
"What do you mean by that? Well, let's stop this bad joke here. I should introduce myself. I am the God of Darkness, Balam," said the old man.
And I am Mia Khalifa. Nice to meet you.
"Stop your 100-year-old jokes. I know her by the way."(Balam)
Well, she is a famous actor. So, everyone knows her. Wait, I feel like he is reading my mind.
"It must be your imagination."(Balam)
"I knew it. You were reading my mind.By the way, why can't I see a single thing?"
"Oh, let me adjust the light." while saying that he adjusted the light.
I can clearly see a little round-shaped light source. It's as if he just made a smaller version of sun. A dark God making light. How funny. Everything becomes visible to me. I was sitting on the ground of a big room. There's an old man sitting on the opposite side of me. Both his hands, legs and head are tied by some strong chains.
"Now let's continue. I find you interesting. Why did you have so much mana, I wonder."(Balam)
"Mana? But what's the point? I wasn't able to awake a single attribute," I replied. I feel disappointed.
"Hum. That's strange. Maybe that's because you have both Order and Chaos attributes within you."(Balam)
"What do you mean?"
"You see, have you ever heard someone awaken Order and Chaos attributes at the same time?"(Balam)
"No."
Come to think of it, I never heard that. I know that they're already rare attributes.
"That's because it's hard to detect. Besides, the machine that is used in your ritual won't be able to detect any kind of attributes if you have more than 1000 mana."(Balam)
1000 mana!? I heard an average person possesses 20 mana. 20 mana means mana level 20. But those who practice can increase this mana level. I have heard an average S-Rank adventurer possesses 200 mana. Then why would mine be 1000+?
"Well, I suppose you won't be able to know that. Central Temple don't want people to know that. It would affect people's religious belief."(Balam)
"Then how would I know which attributes I have?"
"You have Order and Chaos. That's why I called you. Only supreme beings can awake both of these attributes at the same times. You will surely be one of the most powerful people in this world."(Balam)
"What do you mean?"
"You don't have to understand. Let's make a deal. I will help you to become powerful and you will take me out of here."(Balam)
"How? I don't think I can do that.I mean I don't think I can break that seal."
"Yeah. I know. That's why, using all of my power, I will make a system. That system will be yours as a gift and my soul will enter into your body. I will be sleeping within your body until you become powerful enough to summon me."(Balam)
You are saying, you will enter my body and remain there in a sleeping state until I become powerful enough to summon you? If you could do that, then why are you still here? You could have anyone helping you.
"You see, I can't do that. You are the only person who awakened Order and Chaos at the same time. No one was able to do that."(Balam)
So, he was serious when he said that I have awakened Order and Chaos attributes. Well, it's not like I believe him, but I guess I don't have anything to lose now. So, I should make this deal with him. He has been stuck here for a long time after all.
"I might be stuck here, but I am seeing this world all the time using my power. I am a god after all."(Balam)
Yosh, with this, he lost his only chance to induce me.
"Oh, shit."(Balam)
"Well, it's a deal."
"Yeah, it's a deal."(Balam)
My body began to grow. I can understand that it's time. My vision is slowly becoming dark.
