Capítulo 1: Chapter 1: The Protagonist’s Sister
-----
Beep.
Beep.
Beep...
The sound of a machine indicating the beating of my heart slowly woke me up. When I opened my eyes, as I had suspected, I found myself inside a small hospital room, resting over a bed. And right at my left side, a handsome young man, no older than twenty years old, with short and glossy black hair and pale blue eyes greeted me. Tears were streaming from his face, while he was holding in his hands an empty, yet intricately decorated bottle.
"Anna! The Elixir… It worked!"
"Huh?"
Just what the heck was going on right now? Anna? That's not my name. I also don't remember having a brother at all. And when was I thrown into the hospital?!
"Ugh…!"
As I tried to sort my thoughts, a sudden rush of memories of two completely different persons flowed into my mind, merging, and forming my new self, the me of right now. This is wild, now I remember. My previous life name was Julia Martinez. I was a web novel writer and a rather unsuccessful one at that. I was an orphan and had no family whatsoever. Throughout my life, I've always liked to read because it helped me cope with the harsh reality that was my life… Because of that, I started writing web novels to pass the time. Ultimately, I started earning some pennies out of it, and I thought I could become a full-time writer with enough effort.
Oh, how wrong I was…
I wrote romance after romance, but nothing clicked, less than 100 collections, almost no views, hundreds after hundreds of chapters and nobody read them! I keep scrambling my head for new ideas, but despite liking reading romance so much, I was terrible at writing it. And then, someone, an online friend, recommended me to read another genre… Action, Adventure, and System. And there I was, like an idiot reading novels after novels… until I ended in one that was the most popular of them all, the most popular of this stupid, overused, and lazy genre.
Solo Player.
It sounds as uninspired and dull as you can imagine. It's the usual template, monsters come out of the gates, hunters with powers fight them back, society stabilizes, the main character shows up, weak and mocked, then awakens a special system, levels up, gains powers, and blah, blah, blah. It was one of the most generic things I've read, yet I was able to understand why this genre was so popular, I even had fun reading this uninspired thing!
Yet…
I died. Just when I was obsessively reading in the middle of the streets on my way to buy instant ramen.
BAAM!
A truck ran me over. I can't believe I died so clichédly.
"Can you talk? Anna, do you recognize me?"
And of course, as I heard my big brother's words, I was also recalling my other life. The life I've had in this world, which seems oddly similar to these novels I've read lately, as Anna. A little and innocent girl who grew up overly protected by her parents, her big brother always took care of anything, so she grew spoiled too.
Life was good, my parents had money, and I was going to have a happy life. But then, just like the script of my favorite novel… Gates leading to Dungeons! Monsters! Hunters! Our parents died in a terrible accident, just as the Gates showed up. And about me? While trying to run away, I was also attacked. Somehow, my big brother protected me, but I have been in a coma ever since then. It is ultimately bizarre I've discovered my previous life was a woman who read my whole life as a novel.
"Hey, Anna!"
Ugh, big brother, can't you wait?! I am having my whole personal monologue here! At least give me ten minutes to settle down my mind! There's so much info it hurts.
"Brother… Big brother?"
And there I was, tired of his babbling, though I was ultimately thankful he woke me up from my coma using an Elixir. I couldn't be surprised deep down because I knew this was going to happen. However, my side that is Anna is happy to be awake at long last, and I can't help but have tears flow from my eyes.
"I've been so worried, Anna!"
My big brother hugged me tightly, as I kissed him on his cheek. His warm hug comforted my heart, making me feel happy immediately. Ahhh~ I can get used to this.
"W-Wait a second!"
Suddenly, I realized something.
"Huh? Anna?"
My big brother's azure eyes looked at me confused.
"I utilized an Elixir I've been making to wake you up; you've been in a coma for three years now…" He sighed. "A lot happened, our parents… passed away when the Rifts began. There's so much to explain but I know it is hard for you to understand, so I won't go into details."
"Eh? Huh?"
His face and that strong aura I am feeling out of him! He's… Oh, right! My big brother's the Protagonist of Solo Player!
"You should rest for now. I'll go tell the doctors you've woken up, alright? Relax for now, everything is going to be okay." My big brother said with a gallant voice, as he walked away from the room.
As I was trying to settle my thoughts, a blue-colored holographic window materialized right in front of my eyes, startling me to death.
Ding!
[System Seed has been successfully implanted inside of the user's Soul.]
[Congratulations! You've been selected for Transmigration by []!]
And as if things couldn't get weirder, a system window showed up in front of my face, but my brother couldn't even see it. And what do you mean selected for transmigration? Was this the doing of somebody else?
Ding!
[The Cosmic Throne {Butterfly That Flies Across The Universe} is wondering why there are so many gazes directed at you… She quickly finds your flabbergasted face a bit funny.]
[Due to the entertainment you've brought to her, she has tipped 10 Plot Points (PP)!]
[The Cosmic Throne {Monkey that Dances in Chaos} is wondering why this klutz is harnessing the attention of the Nebula Stream.]
[He has to admit though, the face you're making is beyond silly.]
[He has tipped 5 Plot Points (PP)!]
What is going on?! These are Constellations! But Anna wasn't supposed to even become a Player…
[By the Command of [], a Constellation will be sent to explain your current situation.]
[The Cosmic Throne {Jester Filled With Lies} has decided to manifest an illusion avatar before you!]
[The Nebula Streaming Services have been temporarily halted within your vicinity, no Constellations can see you or what's happening now.]
POOOF!
Suddenly, an enormous quantity of white smoke exploded into the room, making me cough frenetically.
"Cough, cough…! What the…?!"
And within the smoke, a jester emerged, laughing calmly. I couldn't discern his face, hidden beneath a mask showing a divided expression of joy and sorrow.
"It seems you've woken up. Welcome to your new life, Anna."
This was straight out of the wildest of my dreams.
And if this is a dream, please, someone, wake me up.
