webnovel

Prologue

"I am so bored..." Kei grumbled as he closed his fridge. 'Why can't something interesting happen to me? Something you would find in an anime, manga, or even light novel... Some web novels, webcomics, I am going into way too much detail...' Kei thought as he began walking to his couch.

As he was about to sit down, the doorbell rang. "Kei! Get out here!" A loud voice yelled. He sighed.

'Right, forgot about that. Y'know, when I said something interesting like in anime, I wasn't talking about a slice of life...' He thought to himself as he walked to his front door. Kei opened the door and saw one of his friends from school standing there.

A fairly big guy, standing at 5'11", short brown hair and piercing eyes of a dark brown color. His build is rather muscular, an athletic type.

"Yo, Hiroto-kun." He said as his eyes laid on Hiroto's body, observing his movements.

"You aren't even ready?" He asked.

"I was very busy. Doing nothing." Kei responded expressionlessly.

"Hurry and get ready! You promised you would fill in for Hisagawa-san!" Hiroto exclaimed as he entered the house pushing Kei aside. "Also, remember our deal!" Hiroto said with a smile. Hiroto took off his shoes, then exited the entryway.

"Oh, yeah... Just don't empty the cabinets..." Kei said lethargically as he moved over to the shoe rack and put his on. "I'll wait outside." He said with a yawn as he exited the house.

After a few minutes, Hiroto walked out with a sandwich the size of a football, then swiftly ate it. Nobody knows how. Not even Hiroto. After a while, they arrived at a large field, a soccer field to be exact. Several people in soccer outfits waited on the field as they noticed Kei and Hiroto.

"Hiroto! Why isn't Kei in uniform?" One of them asked.

"He wasn't ready when I got there and just put on shoes! He can still smoke your ass in soccer though!" Hiroto replied.

'Can I really? I'm not that great at soccer.' Kei thought to himself. After a few minutes, a match was set up. Hiroto on one team and Kei on the other. The teacher on standby, who is in a referee outfit, blew a whistle and the game started.

...

"Man, Kei, you blew us out of the water. You made it look so effortless!" A guy from the team said.

'You're just bad.' Kei thought. "Thanks." He said.

"As I said, Kei is a natural at sports, even though he may not look it." Hiroto said as he pointed at Kei and his thin physique. Kei stands at 5'8" with black hair and dark eyes. His hair is medium short and a bit unkempt.

"Why don't you join the team?" Asked a guy as he came up to Kei and put his arm around his neck. The guy is slightly shorter than Kei, around 5'7", though he has a bit more muscle.

"No." Kei said as he ducked, stepped away, and crossed his arms into an x, still facing the guy. 'This is not a sports anime.' He thought to himself.

"As athletically gifted as he is, Kei isn't interested in sports. Something about sports anime typically being a bit... Yaoi..." Hiroto explained.

"Wait, is Kei an otaku?" One of them asked.

"Yes, my badge of honor." Kei said as he put his hand on his chin and nodded proudly. After a few moments of silence, Hiroto went and got a drink of water with Kei.

"So, you really not planning on joining the soccer team?" Hiroto asked.

"I'm not. I'd rather get sent to another world." Kei said.

"Isn't that a bit extreme?" Hiroto asked.

"Nope. It's just any male otaku's fantasy!" Kei said as he was filled with energy and stood up. "Any man should want to get sent to another world with epic powers, magic, and plenty of hot women and legal loli's!" Kei said enthusiastically.

"Was that last one necessary? People will think poorly of you." Hiroto said.

"Right, sorry." Kei said as he wound down his energy and sat down. "It's just a common theme in these fantasy worlds." Kei said.

"So, you want to go to another world with epic powers?" Hiroto asked. Kei nodded.

"It seems enjoyable." He said.

"What about everyone who doesn't go with you? Friends, family, colleagues, all of them." Hiroto asked. For a moment, he looked like he regretted saying something.

"I suppose they would remain here without me." Kei said.

"We'd all miss you, as weird of a person as you are." Hiroto said.

"Yeah..." Kei said as he took a sip of his water. Suddenly, a strange portal appeared in front of Kei and Hiroto. "Hey, Hiroto." Kei said.

"Yeah?" He asked.

"You can see this too, right?" Kei asked.

"Yup." He said with a nod.

"Should we enter?" He asked.

"Probably not, but you're going to anyway, so let's go." Hiroto said as he stood up and grabbed the pitcher next to him that is filled with water.

"Right." Kei said as he stood up. Hiroto also stood up. "Let's go." Kei said as he stepped into the portal. Hiroto followed along. Their vision blurred for a few seconds, and once it was unblurred they noticed they were in some kind of office. They are both sat in stationary chairs and on the other side of the desk is an office chair that is turned away from them.

"Welcome, brave he-" A feminine voice started as the chair turned to face them. "Wait, why are there two?" A young girl asked. The girl is rather short, around 4'10" tall, with a young face and a small chest.

Her hair is long and silver in coloration and her eyes are a lilac purple color. "We both went through the portal." Kei said. The girl sighed.

"My name is Alicia, I am the goddess of magic, and I have chosen you... Two... To go to my world and live there." Alicia said.

"Just live there?" Hiroto asked.

"Y-yes, why?" She asked.

"Is there anything preventing us from taking over the world, any challenge we need to beat, any goal that we are given?" Kei asked.

"W-well, no." She said as she looked down. "I just wanted to be like the other gods and have otherworlders, okay!?" Alicia asked as tears began forming. "They keep on making fun of me saying that I won't be a real goddess until I have a few." She said as she began crying.

"Kei, you made the child goddess cry!" Hiroto yelled at Kei as he stood up.

"I-I'm not... A child..." She said as she began to cry harder. Hiroto sat back down.

"My apologies." He said.

"Everyone calls me that... I'm tired of it!" She yelled as she cried. "Short, child, false-loli... I didn't choose my appearance... It's not my fault... I'm always told that I can't properly make a world because of my appearance... That no one respects a goddess that looks like a child..." She said between her tears.

"Kei... Should we be listening to this?" Hiroto asked. Kei shrugged. After a few minutes, she calmed down and regained her composure.

"S-sorry. I'm not usually like that, but... It's just been weighing on me..." Alicia explained.

"For how long, exactly?" Hiroto asked.

"A few... Centuries..." She said hesitantly. "B-b-but, that was the only time I broke down! I can usually take it!" She said. "Words just weigh on you after a while." She added.

"Y-yeah..." Hiroto said, unsure of how to comfort a goddess.

"So, about the whole other world thing?" Kei said, bringing the conversation back to the original topic.

"Right, I'll send you two to my world, you will get some things, of course." Alicia explained. Kei nodded.

"What kinds of things?" Hiroto asked as he adjusted his posture.

"Items, abilities, unique magics, many a thing." Alicia said.

"I kind of want to do something to spite the gods that would make fun of such a cute girl..." Kei said.

"What are you thinking...?" Hiroto asked with worry.

"I can't harm them, but if you were to become a small girl and garner the respect of many people, that may just show them..." Alicia said.

"That sounds... Like a bad idea..." Kei said.

"I'll give you extra cheats." Alicia said swiftly.

"Deal." Kei said with a sparkle in his eye.

"Alright, with that out of the way, here is the character creation screen, basically, you can adjust a few things about your body and stats." Alicia explained as a screen popped up in front of both Hiroto and Kei. Both screens can only be viewed by the person to who it pertains.

Was reading some gender bender so I decided to try my hand at it... Why must my brain work like this? Anyway, yeah.
