"The mercenary group had taken a contract to slay a serpent monster terrorizing a local village. Thane was a member of this group. He was the bag boy. But this group had met a dangerous fate."
The scene showed them traveling into a valley, when they were suddenly ambushed by orcs! Screams began to resound, and there was a fire spell shot at them. The battle began so chaotic that the leader of the mercenaries ordered the boy to abandon the baggage and run. The boy followed and ran.
"He was separated from the group in that battle, and he became. A lost child, in this terrifying forest."
Thane saw the kid wandering and running around in the forest.
"That's me. That's literally me! So this was the life of my current body!"
"For two days, the boy wandered. And found wild fruits to eat and had to sneak up the river and risk monstrous attack just to drink water. Until... he stumbled into the Dragon's Domain."
A beautifully animated sequence followed. The jungle parted, revealing the glowing tree. The boy crawled toward it. His eyes widened. He reached out—
"The fruit! He found it!" Thane whispered.
The image froze with the boy's hand just touching the Ambrosia.
"He took the fruit. Placed it into his pouch. He did not know what he held."
Then the shadows deepened.
The screen rattled with a deep growl. A winged form dropped from the canopy. Emerald. Massive.
"At that moment, Dunkar returned. And the dragon immediately saw a boy in his beloved garden. No beast would dare linger here, and so, with swift rage, the dragon attacked."
The boy's eyes lifted.
The dragon's roar split the skies.
The screen turned white, then flashed red. Dunkar swiped once, claws ripping through the forest. The merciless blow struck the boy, crushing his bones, and hurled him aside like a doll.
BOOM!
"What was that boy but a mere ant to the dragon? A single strike, and he did not survive."
"Dunkar had not noticed that the boy had already taken the fruit."
The camera zoomed in on the untouched pouch that was next to the broken body of Thane. The inside was shown to be pulsing faintly.
"This was the end of Thane Weakarm. But this was also his beginning. For now, he is a new creation!"
A beam of light tore through the clouds.
A Golden, blinding, holy light shot form above.
"From the heavens, a light descended. A being was arriving!" The narrator's expression grew reverent.
"The Main Character... The Leading Man... The Watcher... Thane Wallaby's soul... A soul that had been isekaied had arrived!"
The screen showed the boy's broken and splattered body. It reformed, and the body returned.
The pouch glowed. The Ambrosia pulsed as it took in the golden light.
"Thane Wallaby, former Vendor Management Specialist, reincarnated into the body of Thane Weakarm and, in doing so, caused the Ambrosia to fully mature."
The Ambrosia inside the bag began to change. It shimmered. Glowed brighter. Cracks of light laced its surface. It pulsed like a star.
Thane Weakarm's body began to reform. The broken and crushed body began to close. His features and face lost all of their imperfections. He retained his self, down to his birthmarks, but he was now... flawless.
Thane watched the scene of his rebirth and his transformation. He hadn't had the chance to see himself before this, but now, as he gazed on his self, he couldn't help but admire how good-looking his current body is.
"If I can't still get a girlfriend now, there' seriously something wrong with me..." Thane vowed.
"With the holy energy suddenly shooting down, the dragon Dunkar retreated. Holy was a magic that was the weakness of all serpentine beings. Dunkar was shocked that such a powerful spell flashed from the heavens!"
Thane was shown to be standing up and doing exactly what he did right as he awakened.
The bright light had blinded Dunkar, and when his vision returned, he saw the boy, alive once more.
"The dragon roared as it retreated. Fleeing in fear of a sudden ambush that might have been his end!"
"So it ran away from me?! I got scared over nothing!" Thane cursed.
"Sensing that there was holy magic at work, Dunkar fled in his fear and confusion. Was this boy a relative, friend, or the son of a divine being? Had it enraged the God of this world? He fled. And in doing so, it gave the chance for Thane to survive!"
The scene of Thane's escape was shown again.
Thane's mouth was wide open as he saw an unsightly, awful, embarrassing, and downright ugly scene of his crying escape being shown on TV.
Tears and snot were shown as the camera zoomed in on Thane's face. It then transitions into a montage of Bollywood-style effects, zooming and panning out, distorting in color, and applying slide transitions from a clearly pirated PowerPoint application.
"...Very funny." Thane rolled his eyes as he knew this was that eccentric's angel doing.
"Unknowingly, this snot-ridden boy carried with him a great treasure. A fruit that would open an immeasurable power!"
"But with his fruit stolen from him, Dunkar will soon rage. For a time, this dragon will search beyond the kingdom and discover... that the boy was a prophesied... Dragon Slayer!"
"Dragon Slayer?! Me?!"
"And a rage that will follow, will surely bring catastrophe to the human kingdoms close by. A dark era for this kingdom will soon come. Only the Holy Child, Thane Weakarm, can save the kingdoms from utter ruin. This is History. But tomorrow's History is yet to be written. What will happen to Thane now that there is enmity between him and the serpent? This is history for Thane to create!"
The screen faded.
Thane took his last bite at the Ambrosia as he saw the scene.
"...Only I can avert this crisis?" Thane felt a foreboding crisis.
"Next week... On Dunkar and the Holy Dragon Slayer..." A sudden animation appeared.
"What? Next week? But... this episode literally just happened!" Thane was confused.
A scene of a giant dragon roaring against a mag wielding terrifying magic of great wind that wrapped around him like a cloak, fought in the vast heavens.
"Dunkar! For what reason do you attack me?!"
"Did you attack me with Holy magic in my solitude in Velithra?!" The dragon's deep voice echoed out against the mage.
An impressive battle that surpassed even Earth's greatest CGI battle was shown.
"Huh? Dunkar thought that the old man attacked him?!"
"Meanwhile... the Holy Dragon Slayer embarks on his new adventure!"
Thane suddenly saw himself wearing a strange set of armor and was fighting against Orcs!
He was surrounded by a great number of orcs and goblins, and blood and gore were all around him.
"Will Thane survive this new world? Will he find the strength before Dunkar turns his rage towards this mortal kingdom? Find out in the next episode of... Dunkar and the Holy Dragon Slayer!"
The show ended.
Thane was left with his mouth wide open.
"What the...?! This show is telling the future!" Thane exclaimed.
His thoughts were all over the place.
The dragon would soon rage against the mortal kingdoms? There were a lot of things Thane didn't understand.
But throughout all of this, he kept eating and finally took the last bite of the fruit, leaving only the peeled-out layer.
Then, a strange notification appeared on the TV Screen.
