Chapter 5 - My God

One second, I was in a room filled with mass shooting, and the next, I was in a room I couldn't even recognise. The walls were lime green in colour and there were 4 tables and 4 benches. There was also a white board and a door leading outside and stairs leading downstairs. A girl, dressed in a white shirt and green pants, was doing some maths equations off the board and was walking around the area. There was also another boy on one of the benches. He looked weak and was a little fat. He was writing frantically on a book. It was an overstatement to say that the shirt he wore was a little big on him, and his pants reached his knees.

[Haha! So you've finally arrived. Though, I knew that your fate would summon you here, Oh, Child of the Words!]

I could hear his voice but his mouth didn't even move an inch. It seemed like that girl couldn't see me or hear his words either. It was freaky.

[I'm only having you here so that your trauma may not flood your sanity, Oh, Child of the Words!]

"Wh-Who are you? What do you want with me?"

[Me? You may address me as [The Worst Fable]. I don't want anything of you, for I, too, am only human. There is nothing you can offer me.]

I watched as he reached into his bag and take out a purse. He took a correction pen from inside the purse and stopped writing to mark some of his words with the correction pen.

I couldn't handle it any longer and opened my mouth to ask him, "what happened to Niko-" but I stopped. I didn't know how or why. I just stopped out of nowhere as if my whole existence itself was allowing this [The Worst Fable] to speak.

[Doomed is your world, Oh, Child of the Words. For your world has started being recorded and spectated. Your end draws close, and I simple wish to aid you in showing your life story to my people. Curse me not, Oh, Child of the Words, for I, too, am man, not God.]

And with that, I disappeared from the room.

The next second, I arrived back in my world. I was back in the Freaks' base, and every Freak was... dead. Blood stained the floors. Both sides were now corpses, and their blood pooled the floor, mixing with each other.

"Oh, [The Most Ancient Curse], take our lives and escape with this pitiful child fated with the same tragedy as you. Save Niko, Oh, Great One, for death is our inevitable fate, but not Niko's." Laves cried out. He used his power, his divine curse it seemed, to gather all the blood in the whole room and formed a tiny sphere. Black energy emerged from Laves' whole body and his body disintegrated into that black energy which fused itself into the sphere. The sphere shot through my chest and fused with my heart, and power filled me.

[Divine curse, 'Reincarnation' has evolved into 'Group Reincarnation'!]

[Group Reincarnation has been forcefully activated!]

[Characters, 'Vynn Luo' and 'Niko Brooknim' have entered a reincarnation course to Earth 22522!]

We were yet again enveloped in that dazzling light that always appeared when during reincarnations. Well, by 'we' I mean just me.

Our bodies were crushed into tiny powders and formed tiny orbs of blood. I had gotten used to this agonising pain, bit Niko hadn't. He screamed out in an agony as he felt this pain of being crushed to fine powder.

[The Most Ancient Good is gazing at Niko Brooknim!]

[The Most Ancient Evil gazes at Niko Brooknim!]

[The Most Ancient Joy wished Niko Brooknim luck!]

[The Most Ancient Sorrow gives his strength to aid Niko Brooknim!]

Niko stopped screaming at once. Only the gazes of the stars I saw in that dazzling light were able to relieve Niko of his pain. If these stars are this strong, just how strong is The Worst Fable? Just as I was pondering this, a message popped up before me.

[The Earthly Akuma rates your life 7/10!]

Wait what? What the hell fo you mean '7/10'?!

[The Worst Fable gifts you with your unlocked memories!]

Just then, memories came flooding to me.i remembered memories that felt like they were sealed away. Now I remember. I remember the 20,637 lives I forgot about. The memories that were sealed away.

Yes, I, Vynn Luo, the 'Reincarnator' have actually lived 60,366 lives, and am 5,770,717 years old. I'm a 5.77 million year old grandpa.

As I kept self-lamenting at my actual age, I saw the rift in the light. I guess that's the new world I'll reincarnate in.
