I had been trying to use magic for a while now.
Even when I tried to use it, I could not get the fundamentals right and the message system had to help me(yes I forced it to help me saying I will complain to the god and get it replaced, guess it felt threatened).
While I was trying to use the magic, I blacked out again.
"HOHOHOHO, looks like you are getting used to the new universe", an abrupt voice came when I gained consciousness and from the looks of it, it was the one and only god?
"YOU AGAIN? I had thought that was some kind of prank and played along like a cool guy but that was reality."
"And here I thought you got used to your new surroundings."
"Anyways, is it related to my power to summon the person of my choice?"
"Yes, so who would you like to summon?"
While this may look like an easy questions, no comrade would like to get kidnapped to another universe for his boss. Many would be upset as they have families in their world.
"I would like to summon my advisor.", I answered after giving it some thought. My advisor was a loyal person. Plus she did not have any family, she was an orphan.
"Okay done, you need to ask anything else, I don't have much time till I can connect you to this world."
"Why did you not transport my abs as well?, do you know how hard I worked to get ripped and all of my efforts at gym were wasted thanks to you!"
"Can you seriously ask a question now?"
"Well first of all, where are we?"
"We are in my universe, I brought your livetrons here so you could communicate with me. "
"I have been thinking this for some time, Does that world have any other kidnap- teleported people like me?"
"Yes, but from different universes"
"Is that universe a dumping ground for you?"
"No comments."
"What do you mean by no comments?"
"Next question please!"
"Fine, Can I get my message system replac-"
"Well looks like your time is up, bye bye!", the god cut me off.
"Hey you, don't go ignoring me after all the trouble you caused me, I was brought from a luxury life of a ruler to a peasant's lif-"
And I woke up, greeted by a familiar yet screeching sound of the message system,
"WAKE UP, YOU INSOLENT FOOL, FEEL THE ADRENALINE IN YOU VEINS!"
"Shut up! Where is my advisor?"
"Near your spawn location"
"Show me using your GPS system"
"Turning on GPS system"
I went back to the spawn location, but I did not see my advisor around there.
"AH! What the hell?Is this one of those isekai teleports? Will I get an anime after me?", an unexpected voice came from behind.
"Sorry to ruin your dreams, but no. Also, congratulations on being banished from your universe, right now you are in another universe."
"Who is that?"
"Your boss or more like your ex-boss."
"WHAT?"
"Yes, this is the reality or so it seems, to be short, a god has banished you from our universe."
"Ok, please explain this in detail and who are you again, also please tell me where you are."It seems she catches on rather quick.
"Right behind you"
She turned back.
"WHO ARE YOU?"
And here I thought she would recognise me. But I can't blame her, since even I could not recognise her. She had blonde hair, a fair complex, her head was around the same level as my nose. She was wearing a kind of white tunic.
"I am your previous boss or the person who world conquered 45% of the world."
"Hmm, I will believe you for now. But summarise everything for me."
"Ok, first let's head to a village"
We headed for the village and were stopped by the guard.
"Who is she?", the guard said.
"She is a friend of mine who also happens to take refuge."
"Please register with the city maintenance committee."
"Sure."
And we went for the city maintenance committee office to register. On the way I told her the whole incident, she was a little happy yet frustrated. In exchange she told me about what happened when I was not present in our universe. The other ministers had assumed I was kidnapped, so they made someone else as a temporary leader of the country.
When we reached the office, the office lady inquired about us.
"Sir and madam, what are your names?"
"My name is Styrm as for the lady here - "
"Khaleesi, my name is khaleesi", she's got a talent for naming things like me.
"What village do you come from?"
"Uhh, , Achoo village", that was completely made up.
"We have never heard about it but we will try to issue you identification as soon as possible. Please stay for another 2 hours here." And the office lady went to the back office.
"Nice naming sense you got there!"
"Whose servant do you think I am?"
"Is that a compliment or remark?"
"That's for you to decide, how much wealth did you amass while you were here?"
"I amassed around 1000 minths, and after some spending I am at around 800 minths."
"Eh? Just that much?"
Khaleesi had one problem in her personality, her greed for wealth.
"Well I got into a little trouble, so the process slowed up a bit. Also I spent some time trying to use magic."
"Hm, where are we going to stay tonight?What are we going to eat? Did you make any investments?"
"Probably on the side streets, it's not that bad. We are eating bread and some soup. No I did not and where do I invest? There is no stock market here."
"All the load always comes on me. You are always so carefree with money. I have made decision, we are going to become traders now."
"Traders? We do not have a single penny for it."
"Business stands not only on money but also on trust and knowledge. Slowly we will make connections."
This is why I don't like to meddle in financial matters.
"Your registrations are done, here you go.", said the office lady.
"Thanks."
And with that we left the office, Is is just me or is the mood getting heavier as the time passes? Probably because khaleesi is very serious and does not like joking around.
"Let's start are business, is there something like a trader's guild or something like that?"
"I have heard about it, it's right around the corner."
"Hmm, you insolent fool , become an adventurer not a businessman.", the message system came to life after a long duration of being quiet.
"WHAT'S THAT?", said the scared khaleesi.
"Oh, you can see this?I call her alexa"
"I am a message system, also capable of turning into GPS system."
"Alexa, play 'stardust crusaders' "
"AS IF I WILL PLAY THAT, I AM NOT YOUR AI PERSONAL ASSISTANT."
"I see, this thing(alexa) is useless", said khaleesi with a cheery smile.
"Tell me something I did not know." *(Credits: dad jokes)
"What are you planning to keep the base of our business?"
"Our knowledge, science of our world, from what I heard they did not change in this universe right?"
"Yes, but can we try magic?"
"Of course, we will learn magic meanwhile."
"Who are you going to learn from it? I am a very good tutor when it comes to magic", said the message system.
"Okay"
"Okay"
"What's with that half-willed response?", the alexa said
"I have come up with a business model for our company, we will use our ideas to help people find daily life solutions. Let's make a poster for that and post it all around the town."
"That is a good idea, the posters will cost around 100 minths, and we won't have any other major costs."
"Hey, are you two ignoring me?" the alexa said
"And we will charge them royalties on their products, we will use those royalties as an investment capital for our business."
"Maybe we could just ask for simple cash in return for our services?"
"You are not acquainted to the business world, are you? When we take royalties, it is going to be like a tax that will always fill our pockets timely. This will also increase their trust towards us as they will think if they suffer losses due to our ideas even we would suffer losses. "
" WHY HAVE YOU TWO HAVE BEEN IGNORING ME?" - said alexa in a dreadful tone.
"We were just discussing about more important matters than you"
"THAT'S EMOTIONAL DAMAGE, YOU CAN'T DO THAT", said the weeping alexa
"SAV-VY!", those words left from my mouth before I could even think about it.
For the rest of the journey(to be noted: it was hardly a 5 minutes journey), we remained quiet. The alexa was still in shock from what happened.
