1 Chapter 1: New Life In Another World
Cold... why was my room so fucking cold? My bed even felt softer than usual, and the breeze from my fan felt like it was on high or something.
These were the first thoughts that came to me as I struggled to fully regain consciousness, trying to shake off the vestiges of sleep in what seemed a more futile action than it should've been. Normally I could wake up quickly, especially with the right stimulus, but it felt like my body was refusing to properly respond to me. Worse, my head was in a fog, thoughts hazy and clouded. Was I sick? Calling in sick wasn't gonna do me any favors because... because... where did I work again? What's my name again?
Panic shot through me and I willed my body to move, clumsily rolling over to try and get up. My face touched something warm and soft. My eyelids wanted to stay clenched shut against the glare of sunlight which I no longer guessed was coming in through a window. This was wrong, this was very wrong.
Everything is wrong. Everything feels and smells wrong...
Seconds ticked by and I felt control over my body coming to me in a way I'd never felt before. It wasn't that my body was refusing to wake up, it was that I'd forgotten how to move it, and only now was I starting to remember. I could almost feel my synapses firing on overdrive as they shot newly learned instructions through my nerves, urging my limbs to respond. My right arm jerked forward and grabbed something soft and cold, but the cold was muted and distant.
" Arthur you better be up, you sleepy head~" Opening my(?) door Into my(?) room, is a cute young girl around 10-12 years old, possessing beautiful sparkling blue eyes, and long, elegant golden hair, that is tied to both sides of her head, and a braid running down from the back of her head, a bow attached at the end of the braid. She also wore a white lace around her forehead. Lastly, she wears a simple yet elegant white one-piece dress.
Slowly getting off my(?) bed In a natural lazy manner, I opened my mouth, letting out a cute young boy voice," I'm up... I'm up... I'm up...'
... That's not my voice... Who am I?... No... What am I?
" Good, breakfast will be ready shortly~" Fixing my messing golden hair, Alice my new younger twin sister skipped off with a hip In her steps, humming a calming and lovely tune.
... My younger twin sister? When did I have one?... Wait, better answer: who dyed and cut my long black hair?
Touching my soft piece of golden hair, I hummed," Soft." Yes, my hair is soft and It's golden, a beautiful color I might add. And yet, this is not me, not my voice, not my body or hair, and not my World.
...Where am I?...
[ *Ping!* Welcome to another World: Arthur Von Nikolaevich Romanova Volkov~ I'm the Supreme Anime System that will assist you In your every need~]
Ringing throughout my head is a beautiful elegant young girl voice that could calm down even the most wrong beings In the world with just a few words.
Likewise, floating In front of me is a golden Hologram screen with white letters.
' Another World?'
[ Affirmative Master~]
' Which world?'
[ A Fantasy Sword & Magic World, the typical Isekai World one might add.]
... Gods, why did this have to happen to me? Because I'm pretty sure, my life before all this was easy and lazy.
So why fuck that up?
[ Answer: Because Master completed the Supreme Anime Survey, Winning his chance to be Transmigrated In Another World.]
So...the past me fucked the current me? With his stupid high-self-thinking?
" Gods... I never knew you could hate your own self this much." Getting up off my bed, I sluggishly made my way out of my oddly large room, Into a short wooden hallway, that has only three doors on each side and a window at the end. A simple hallway, one might add.
Yawning deeply, I walked forward and downstairs, leading into a living room that is closely connected to a large kitchen.
... Housing someone, me and my past self knows very well, making me stop In my lifeless tracks...
Sitting down watching Alice cook and humm away is a beautiful girl around 18-21 years old with far more mature features, than the beautiful and elegant little Alice. She is tall big breasted and curvaceous young girl, clad in black clothes, from top to bottom, showing her pale white skin and pale golden hair color that is tied in a bun. Her hair is notably longer than her younger sister's, kinda resembling a demonic Lions Maine. And much like my past self eyes, hers are pale Golden soulless and lifeless ones, like an ever calming ocean that can devour you whole If you let It...
... Kinda beautiful If you look at it, In my humble opinion.
" Hm? Something on my face, Art?" In an ever calm beautiful Royal-like voice, Artoria my older sister asked me, staring Into my poisonous emerald color eyes, which are devoid of emotions or feelings, much like my past self and hers.
" No. Just taking a look at my beautiful big sister." Blinking my eyes and making them show something, I smiled and sat by her, with my legs barely hanging off the wooden chair I'm sitting on.
" Is it a crime?" I added, chuckling at her face that blushed for a split second and then revealed nothing.
" What got you so happy? Found a little girlfriend, you're not telling me about?"
*Crack!*
" Oh, sorry." As Artoria mentioned girlfriend, Alice broke the homemade wooden cup she was holding and went back to cleaning.
" Nope~ I just had a great slumber, that's all~" Eating the eggs and bacon In front of me I smiled," Oh~ I love Alice's cooking~"
" Great slumber? Why use that word?" Artoria asked simply, eating too with a slightly pleased expression on her face.
" Why not~" Finishing up my breakfast, I gave my dish and cup to Alice and sat back down.
" Hm? You ate faster today too. I was only on my fourth plate and you were done." Finishing her fourth plate, she added simply.
" Mhm~" Nodding, I started humming an unknown and forgotten tune, with my eyes closed.
' System what are your functions?'
[ *Ping!*: Stats: A place where Master can check his stats | Inventory: A place where Master can store his goods | Gacha: A place where Master can win otherworldly things | Quests Hall: A place where Master can take Quests put up by other Gods and Goddess and World-wills and Verse-wills throughout the very Omniverse-PS: Quests are Optional.]
' Hmm, a simple system. I like it. Unlike those shitty systems the other Transmigrators and Reincarnators, get stuffed with... How amusing this turned out to be for me.' Stopping my humming and opening my eyes, I was greeted by two pairs of eyes eyeing me up and down like I'm some exotic and almost extinct creature.
An odd feeling, If I do might add.
" Yes?"
"" What song was that?"" Both my little and big sister asked me, with a profound look In their eyes.
" I would love to know too. It sounded great." I hummed to myself, at their questions.
"" Huh... The same old Arthur."" They both said, making my eyebrow twitch.
" Who else am I going to be?" I inquired lightly with a smile, mumbling to myself.
" Well anyway: Are you two ready for your awakening tomorrow?" Taking our conversation in a different direction, Artoria asked us, going back to our cold and yet soft big sister.
"" Yup~"" We both nodded at her, one happy and one far less happy. You could probably guess who is who by now. And if you can't, then I can't help stupidity, sorry not sorry for you.
" Good. Then I guess I can start handing out gifts for you two."
" Gifts?" Alice asked while I raised an eyebrow.
" Mhm." Nodding, a beautiful golden long sword with a slender formed out of thin air. Every part of the sword from the guard to the pommel seems like they are made out of dazzling gold while the blade itself is dyed in a bright golden yellow distinctly more intense than the sword's scabbard. A cross-shaped flower design decorates the sword's guard.
*Bang!*
With a loud metal sound, the sword lightly floated on the dinner table.
" This is yours." She softly said, looking Into Alice's sparkling blue eyes, which are full of life, a significant difference between hers and ours that are devoid of life.
" Take good care It. I created her with the utmost care. Okay, little Ai?" Possessing a seemingly rare gentle and warm expression on her face, Artoria said while rubbing Alice's hair out of place.
" Mhm~ I will!" With Impressive strength for a little girl her age, Alice took her new sword and hugged It with all her might, smiling blissfully In her own little world.
" Next is you." Looking Into my plain and yet sinister-looking poisonous emerald color eyes, my big sister smiled, seeing something I do not.
" Me?" I asked, playing clueless as ever.
" Yes, you." Messing up my soft and fluffy neat hair, Artoria's pale golden eyes shined, with love and care, something the current me and past self are not familiar with.
" Here." Forming out thin air too is a beautifully elegant black and blood-red demonic katana that made my eyes shine with life once more, In a long time.
*Bang!*
Also with a loud metal sound, the black katana softly floated to the ground, slightly glowing a beautiful crimson color, under Its black scabbard.
' Yone's Azakana sword from LoL?' I questioned myself, holding a smile on my face, which slowly but surely became more wicked by the second, making Artoria's eyes shine with even more love and care.
" This is from an unknown Labyrinth, I and my party discovered a few months ago. A lost and Ancient sword, from what the GuildMaster could tell me, using her Identify Magic. The way of using this type of sword is lost and forgotten, so I had or my party had no use of It, so I kept it because my party said It fits me. And not knowing how to use It, I kept for It your Awakening Ceremony, to see If you might want It." Artoria explained, rubbing my hair some more, smiling happily.
" I'll take It." Taking the sword, my eyes widened hearing a lazy yet beautiful Goddess-like voice ringing throughout my mind.
{" Mmm, a new User. Let's see If you don't die or go crazy In a mouth. Make my dull life more entertaining, will ya?"} My new sword said, In a lazy carefree manner much like my past self.
{" Pleasure to meet ya to~"} Gripping her tightly, I smiled pleasantly at her way of talking, reminding me of my core self. The self I locked away from the world, masking It flawlessly, as most do.
{" Mhm, the pleasure is all mine, entertainment."} Yawning, she added:{" Now quite now, this sword is trying to take a nap. Wake me, when you need me, new handsome user of mine."}
" You like It?" Bring me back to reality, is my big sister's voice, which sounds hopeful.
Making a big childish smile, I ran and hugged Artoria," I love her~"
*Crack!*
With the sound of something breaking, we heard a scary calm Alice voice," Love her? Who is her?"
" The sword, right Art?" Being the most beautiful and helpful big sister ever, Artoria came to my rescue.
" Mhm~ I love my new sword~ I'll use her In ways you have never seen before~" Playing with my words, I smiled and left the hug, now standing by Alice.
" Oh... Sword, right the sword." Nodding her blank eyes became lifefull and smiled:" Good."
Chuckling at us, Artoria gave us a big warm, and loving hug," Now be good for me. I need to get some training done." Kissing our forehead, she walked to the backyard with a training black Lance In her hands, which appeared when she left our hug.
" Aye-Aye Captain~" I said, bowing a little and smiling slightly.
" Mhm~ I will." Nodding, Alice yelled back running to her room.
" I guess It just the two of us now, huh?" Patting my new katana, I chuckled.
...
...
" I guess It is." Not getting an answer, I finished my sentence, walking to my room and laying down.
' New life. New Me... Huh...' I yawned out, falling asleep remembering someone saying that.
--
' I like that.' And like that, Arthur fell asleep hugging the Black katana to his chest.
A very cute scene, If one were to see It.
