after thinking for sometime, I finally whispered as to not wake other patients..
"tell me why am I reincarnated as a hero?"
I was expecting a sassy remark from system....but ...
< to learn about that.....you need to first know about this world.....>
and with that I learned about this whole reincarnation thing.....
< it all started, when the first great war between gods and demons ended.....>
'so there was some sort of war ....'
< that's not your concern..... anyways...
so after the war ended, the gods and demons basically became bored...gods had to watch the human civilization grow and on the other hand the demonic gods had to watch over the demon civilization.....all of it was so boring.....so boring that infact, there were talks about creating a new war.....>
'wait.....so.... you're telling me that after ending one war....they were gonna start another out of sheer boredom.....you gotta me kidding me!!!'
'.....oh hoo..'
< the plan was simple....chess.....but with few extra steps.....the siblings were the three siblings of fate, well it was one brother and two sisters but you get the idea...>
'.... enough about the fates!!! what was this chess with extra steps that you are talking about??'
'.....like elves, orcs, goblins, etc?'
'....but aren't they ....you know...like, the creations of human beings....'
< that was the thought process that was filled in human minds by the gods.....all these fantasy novels, urban novels and even.....spicy novels....they are not just simply ideas that came inside authors mind out of thin air...it was all done by the gods...and that was to make their chosen ones aware of the world they are gonna witness after death...>
'...okay.....so this chess thing...'
'.....and?'
'...'
'.... hero systems?'
'.....so....the whole chess with extra steps thing was a failure?'
' regressors...'
'the gods became bored?.....'
<....yes....because the idea was now too old...who likes to watch heroes journey.....they were all the same.....so the gods came with a new plan.....they started taking a group of several humans into their worlds and gave them individual systems and a classes....hahaha... you're not gonna believe how many times I saw people backstab their friends and some people got even got their revenge.....but sometimes it became a little too edgy....well anyways It was a really good at first...but soon....>
'let me guess.....the gods got bored?....geez.. just what do these gods need that would keep them entertained?....'
<...well anyways so they went with a different approach .....the gods made a truce with other demonic gods and they started creating portals into the god's most civilised worlds...and well then they started sending monsters from demonic god's worlds....and in this....all the gods and demons get to choose their champion and give them some of their powers as well as some strange currency that can be used to buy skills or exchange items.>
'...oh...just like twitch?'
' FINALLY!!!'
< well anyways, this inspired a lot of gods but they wanted to do something different...so they did what you humans call "transmigration" .....they chose random humans who are familiar with the world they are being sent and became anything.....and I mean anything ..... villain, villainess, extra, henchmen, monsters..... heck they could be a sword for all that matters..... some of them were given system to progress....others depended on their knowledge of the story and you're inside one such world but as a hero....well that's how the gist of these otherworldly facts...>
'...what about the other heroes.....and the hero systems?'
<... I would rather not wanna talk about that....>
'....alright....but why did you kept me from all this?'
<.....that was because if you try to dig too deep into this..... you'll be where my former host is.....and trust me you wouldn't want to go to that place.... that's why I always kept you away from all this otherworldly stuff.....cause I was too afraid that you might do the same stupid thing that my previous host did.....and if that happens.....you might be attacked by the fates...>
'....what weren't the world's made by gods....so why the fates have the interfere?'
< ...they were the ones who gave these ideas to the gods and in return they took an amount of their powers...and before the gods realised this, the fates became far stronger than any god or demon....they are the ruling force of all the worlds and control the fates of it's characters...and finally.....even I don't know why you became the main character??>
'...*sigh* it's alright....but how do you know all of this...'
after learning about the history of these worlds, my mind was a mess and I finally decided to rest...
'..... I learnt a lot but.....none of this is gonna help me with my plan...guess I'll have to discuss it with system tomorrow...hehe.... I'm still happy that I got more paid holidays, the Su family is the greatest....'
soon I closed my eyes and went to sleep..
