Kenji regained the light in his eyes as he immediately got up from where he was laying on.
A soft mattress supported his body, he looked around and got confused.
"This clearly isn't my room.." He tilted his head, and he stood up from the large bed, large enough to support multiple people. The room he was in looked rather lavish, it looked like a very modern room.
"Hold on a fucking second." His mind blanked, what he saw, shocked him.
"It's a scorpion gaming chair!" He inspected the gaming chair in the middle of the room, it resembled a scorpion and supported a three monitor PC.
His excitement was visible with the wide smile present on his face, it was like he had returned to being a child again.
Kenji suddenly felt his phone vibrating so he took it out of his pocket, someone was calling him and it was a familiar contact.
It was the Man in Black.
He took the call, which was a video call.
"What's good my g." He initiated.
"Not much, so how do you like the gift? That scorpion gaming chair ain't the only thing there. Check outside." The Man in Black's ethereal voice echoed from the phone as Kenji turned the knob of the door of the room and checked out what was waiting for him.
It was clearly a penthouse, the view outside covered a wide city as Kenji explored the apartment.
He opened a glass door leading to the infinity pool just outside, his breath hitched, the view of the city stunned him.
"Good shit bro." He had no there words.
"Exactly, enjoy the penthouse big man, just a small gift from me. Also you aren't in the world you were first in." The Man in Black's words caught Kenji's attention.
"I'm in a different world again?" He asked.
"That's right, this is world is a mixed world just like the last one. But it's peaceful, granted you can always return to the previous world, you have the group chat for that, but for now treat this world as your hub. Your main one." The Man in Black explained, as Kenji put his hands on the railing.
"I see, just asking but what crossover world is this?" He asked, curious to see if he knew what worlds there were here.
"I'll tell you next time." The Man in Black said with a light laugh.
"Aight, I'll take your word for it." Kenji reciprocated with a laugh of his own as they enganged in a conversation.
"I've never asked, but what's your new name?" Kenji paused, he realized. They've known each other for a straight month now, yet they've never actually called each other by name.
"It's Kenji, Kenji Joule. And yours?"
"Kenji Joule huh? It's fitting with the first template you got. But anyway my name is Noir." The Man in Black, or Noir revealed his name.
"...Doesn't just mean black." Kenji's face turned comically neutral.
"Indeed."
"Monkey." Kenji taunted.
"You fuck-" Their friendship was blooming, this is normal, trust.

Kenji got out of the bath, he wiped his wet hair with a towel as he sat on the bed.
It was a long day, meeting up with the members of the group, getting transported to the Type-Moon universe, fighting Saber Alter, and getting a new house.
He laid down, his eye lids heavy. The exhaustion has taken its toll, he didn't even have the energy to open Instagram, or check out the rewards he got from completing the mission.
A single thought ran in his mind before he fell asleep.
'I wanna see Cappie again.' Kenji was fell for Cappie's charms, her voice when she called him her player, her body movement that clearly conveyed her emotion, her bright smile, her glorious face.
It all played in mind in repeat as a small smile formed on his face.
'Guess I caught a crush.' And with that final thought, he finally drifted to sleep.

"You guys seem quite close already." Noir felt a pair of arms wrap around him as The Lady in White's voice whispered into his ear.
"Can't help it, brainrotted souls always get attracted to each other." He replied, his voice low.
"So what do you have planned for him?" The Lady in White muttered.
"Plan? Ah, you're already suspicious of me? C'mon i've already abandoned that life." He said with a chuckle.
"We both know that's bullshit." Her voice shifted, a clear coldness replaced her previous tone.
"Believe me, this time my actions are purely out of the kindness of my heart. I've just made a new friend, and as his friend I'm just supporting him." A smile formed on his face as the Lady in White unwrapped her arms from his neck.
"Sounds like you really do live up to your name." She scoffed, as space proceeded to bend to her will, a wide portal formed and the Lady in White stepped inside, leaving Noir that was sitting on his plastic chair.
"Well, I indeed, am just a Fool." The universe shifted, as the lights of the universe died out one by one, in just a few seconds, the once vibrant stars of the universe disappeared.
A large silhouette of a man veiled in pitch black was the only thing present in this dead universe, and as the last light died out.
A wide smirk formed on the man's face.
Before the first spark of existence, in the vast, silent void that predated even the concept of "before," there existed two beings. One was a Lady, an ethereal presence veiled in pure, luminous white. She was the embodiment of beginning, a wellspring of nascent life. Her very essence was creation; each breath she exhaled was a whisper of genesis, a seed of possibility sown into the unformed nothingness.
The other was The Fool, the man called the Observer, he was the shadow of the Omniverse, he embodied the very existence of nothingness, Destruction was his form, Nihility his authority, and Aberration was his sin.
The Dragon has three heads, One to be a Murderer, who will release death, One to be the Monarch, whose crown will weigh heavy, and one to be Mad, whose ideas shall shake the very fabric of existence.
————[Chapter End]————
A/N: I guess this covers the whole prologue of the story, hope you all enjoyed volume one of this Fanfic.
Also, the world he's in now is an amalgamation of some mangas I like... Mainly romance, I'm confident that the selection I chose will appease all of you.
But for now, I'd like to talk about Xenoblade Chronicles, it's peak cinema. On God this series has become one of favorite game franchises, I've played through Xenoblade 1 to 3, starting when I was just a wee lad.
And now the first saga is over, hopefully the next games after Klaus Saga are just as peak.
Saying this cuz I just finished XBC3 and it was fucking peak.
