Chapter 15 - Chapter 3: Punishing the system

KIA SHOTO'S POV

You know darkness has always been associated with cruelty, loneliness, pain, etc.

Can you really classify it as that?

{The darkness within us guides us from right to wrong.}

{It's classified as that due to what happens in the darkness of this world.}

{Any world really}

Are you being nice?

{One day you'll be knocked out, so you won't remember this.}

True

{Two I'm drunk on some shit, so I'm just in that sort of mood.}

You need to be high on your ass before you're nice.

{Fascinating, isn't it?}

Ugh

{Lastly, you have suffered enough for a new reincarnation.}

{ Your friend, your parents, the servants, and the whole fucking kingdom are messed up.}

....thank you

{And if you wanted to ask whether you had darkness, don't.}

{You don't have any; it just surrounds you.}

{It may not make sense but don't beat yourself up for a shitty life. }

{Use the darkness to guide you to the true light.}

Wow, I...

{And I'm sober, shut the fuck up.}

Wow. I should have expected it.

Anyway, I want to use this time to review my status menu.

Plus, there are things I need to confirm.

{When you wake up, I'll do that.}

Come on, there is time, and my consciousness is working.

You've passed out; you're not part of my business till you wake up.}

{I have sh*t to do.}

First, you're a bastard, then you're an asshole, then you're a good person, then you're a shithead.

Why are you doing all of this anyway? You seem to have a lazy, screw-off personality, so why do all this?

{I #$£€|®π|×'|π|×|π hypocrisy}

Wha-

My head starts to feel as though someone stabbed it, then something flashes in front of my eyes, and all I can make out is 'too much'.

Somehow I blacked out my consciousness; does that mean I'm dead? No, that can't be; I can feel something.

The wind blew on my face and the grass below me. I slowly open my eyes and look around.

It seems like a forest on the outskirts of the human kingdom. How long was I out for?

An empty campfire site sits before me. It seems empty.

They don't seem to be around. Probably nearby...

"Status window"

{Window is inactive due to the system being down.}

"Did I just get it? I'm in trouble."

"Seems like even the system can get into trouble."

"I told you I would make you feel pain."

I laugh heartily until my brothers come back, imagining the system's flustered reaction.

"Feels good"
