Chapter 8: Meet the Historian

When Sylvia opened her eyes, she found herself in a familiar white room. It was the same white room she had first met T.

She stood up from her lying down position and subconsciously moved her hand to check her neck. She noticed that she didn't feel any leftover marks and felt relieved. When she moved her sight to the same white pedestal she had seen before, T was there floating with a weird look in his digital eyes.

"What is it, T?"

[Umm... Are you okay, Boss?]

Sylvia was slightly confused as to what he meant by that. "What do you mean?" She inquired.

[No, it's just that... You don't seem traumatized at all after what happened. Usually, all Tragedy Storytellers would either be filled with immense guilt or trauma because of what they either did to themselves or an entire country of innocent people.]

"Well, I had already expected it to come to something like that. And that can't be the worse of things that could happen to me right?"

[No, it's not...]

"Other people could be brutally tortured or gang-raped while I was dying. That's nothing to simply being hanged."

[Well, I guess, but that's not my point--]

"And it's not if I haven't tried hanging myself before."

[Wait, WHAT?!]

T seemed to be utterly surprised by that fact. He even upped his speaker volumes to emphasize that point.

"Shouldn't you know this? I tried cutting my wrists, drowning myself, stabbing myself. But because they all seemed so painful I didn't try continuing. I hate pain after all. I also ended up realizing that there's no point in trying to escape from reality."

[...]

"Anyway, let's go to the next Story."

[Okay...]

T seemed to have numerous thoughts run around inside his little cube body before having them teleported by that same bluish-white light again.

Inside a Japanese-styled mansion, decorated with all the simplicity and elegance of Japanese style, was our main character sitting seiza{1} on a zabuton{2} in a pink child's kimono{3} on the tatami-floored{4} engawa{5} of the house. She had straight cut raven black hair and dark grey eyes that resembled cold steel.

"Hmmm..."

[Ummm...]

"Hmmm..."

[I'll just send you some data about the world and the Leads. I think I forgot to do this last time...]

While Sylvia, now Kanna, was intently staring at the screen before her, another one popped up just to the left of her. It read:

------------------------------------------

Characters: (Start of the plot)

► Female Lead: Mira Yang (20)

– A cross-dressing elite soldier from the 1st Battalion. Graduated from the military academy at 15. Has no idea about matters concerning love. Rare Light and Fire Dual-ability user.

-------------------------------------------

"T."

[What is it, Boss?]

"I won't ask about the corrupted or missing text about my supposed elder brother. I also won't ask about my magic considering you have said previously that it would naturally bend to the laws of the world I am in."

[Okay.]

"What I do want to ask though is, why the f*ck do I have some random 「Space Ability」all of a sudden!"

T internally thought that she should have been more concerned about the corrupted and missing text than some random cool ability, but decide to explain anyway.

[It's because that's the ability you would have gotten if you, not Kanna, had been born in this world.]

"I see..."

"Now... WHAT THE HELL IS WITH THE RANDOM CORRUPTED TEXT?!"

Kanna ended up screaming at the top of her lungs when it was interrupted by a sudden sound of a door opening.

"That's because of me! KONO DIO DAA!!"{6}


CREATORS' THOUGHTS
Lunu Lunu

1: A traditional formal way of sitting in Japan

2: Japanese thin pillows used to sit on tatamis

3: A traditional Japanese garment

4: Mat floors usually made out of rice straw

5: An outer corridor that wraps around a Japanese house

6: JoJo Meme!

I might be changing the cover after this chapter.

I'll also be renaming the book into "The Storyteller System" Since I feel that it fits better with the story.

I'll also be editing the synopsis a bit.
