Kai and Andreas woke up in a world they didn't recognize, a world unfamiliar and chaotic, filled with layers of reality that seemed to shift without any discernible order. This universe felt unstable, as if everything could collapse at any moment. They were still disoriented, trapped in confusion, when suddenly, the sky above them began to spin at a terrifying speed. The world they knew started to fade away.
And then, a figure appeared before them.
Tsukumojuku. His face was full of boredom, as if he had been waiting for a long time to do something unexpected. He stood there amidst swirling shadows, completely indifferent to the chaos around him, his calmness contrasting sharply with the instability of their surroundings.
"This is enough," Tsukumojuku said in a deep, yet firm voice. "I'm tired of this."
Kai and Andreas exchanged glances, sensing something was off. They had heard of Tsukumojuku before, but now he seemed different—darker, filled with anger.
"I can't wait any longer," he continued. "I'm tired of everything."
The words felt strange, as if they were a statement that couldn't be fully understood. For a moment, everything was silent.
Then, Tsukumojuku raised his hand to the sky, and instantly, an overwhelming force surged toward Kai and Andreas. Without warning, their bodies were knocked back by a wave of energy, forming a new layer of power within them. Kai felt his mind throb as the immense power coursed through his body. Andreas struggled to breathe for a moment, overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude of it.
"Why?" Kai gasped, his body trembling. "Why give us this power?"
Tsukumojuku simply smiled coldly, as if someone who had grown too tired of life. "Because you'll need it. I'm done with everything. This is all one big lie."
Andreas tried to steady himself, attempting to grasp Tsukumojuku's words. "What do you mean by 'a big lie'?"
Tsukumojuku glared at them, his eyes full of contempt and despair. "The Supreme Author. The entity that created all of this, who writes our stories. They manipulate everything—everything you see, everything I do. This world is just a narrative written by that entity. There is no freedom, no way out."
Kai and Andreas fell silent, trying to process what Tsukumojuku had just said. The Supreme Author. The name echoed in their minds, filling them with an eerie sense of fear. "What do you mean... kill the Supreme Author?" Kai asked, his eyes widening in confusion and growing fear.
Tsukumojuku sighed, as if the question had been answered a long time ago, but he felt the need to explain again. "I don't care who plays the role in this story. I'm tired of following the rules they set. This world must end—the Supreme Author must be stopped."
"And we have to help you?" Andreas asked, a mixture of confusion and wariness creeping into his heart.
Tsukumojuku nodded calmly. "You have the power to change it. You can make a difference. You are part of this story, and you can rewrite its plot."
Kai stared at Tsukumojuku, still doubtful. "But if this is all just a story written by the Supreme Author, what can we possibly do? Can we even stop it?"
Tsukumojuku gazed at the swirling sky with an empty stare, as if he already knew the answer. "We are all characters in a larger tale. But there is no rule saying who can be the hero or the villain in this story. We will rewrite our own narrative, even if it means destroying the entire world that has been created."
With the power Tsukumojuku had given them, Kai and Andreas felt their bodies beginning to change. They were not just given physical strength, but also the ability to create new layers of reality—a power that could destroy and create worlds in an instant. They could not avoid this responsibility. They were trapped in a scheme greater than mere fate.
Tsukumojuku continued, his voice growing deeper, filled with determination. "I won't stop. I will fight the Supreme Author to the very end. Nothing can stop me."
Kai and Andreas felt the weight of the moment, but they knew one thing: their journey had only just begun, and they would have to choose—would they follow Tsukumojuku in the quest to destroy the Supreme Author, or would they try to uncover the truth about a world they had never fully understood?
They could only hope they wouldn't become just another part of a bigger story already
written for them.
