The Story Book

Michael washed the pants lightly while taking a bath after he woke up and changes cloth after that. In the next coming days he come to the grey world like usual after he slept and everyday he got a rule concerning the grey world, most of them trivial like "This World is Grey in color" but strangely every time he found out about those "rules" he felt the unfamiliarity coming from the grey world is becoming a familiarity, as if… it was a part of his own body that is slowly coming back to his body.

There was some significant rules that he discovered but it was more of information instead of rules like "This World is created by Michaelus Angelius Pasetrius Beurke The First" but it was too long so I called him Michaelus whenever I thought of him by the way his name is similar to mine huh?, then there is "What allow the current inheritor to use this World as his/her own ability is the connection between the bloodline and soul to the Michaelus Angelius Pasetrius Beurke The First" Seriously his name is too long.

***

The Last thing that I found out in those days is that I can found out about the laws by itself and if it really is the law then the world would remind it to me just like how it would tell me everyday about the grey world's laws.

By the way the rule I found out is "The Inheritor can cancel his wishes by tainting the grey world by a color that is not itself (grey) and the source of the change must come from the inheritor then this ability won't consume any lifespan and user can only stay in the grey world as long as how much time is spent sleeping." And it changed the way it called me from 'user' to 'Inheritor' after I found out this law by myself, if the requirement to inherit this grey world is just this then it would be very low.

Ah, by the way I found out two laws at that time to be precise and I found out because I am curious about the summoned 'people' since I never summoned a 'real' person I want to try to summon a semi-person at least they are in my mind, I summoned a V-Tuber, a V-Tuber that I watched the most her Videos "Usada Pekora" and the "Usada Pekora" I summoned is naked just like the red haired elf but for some weird reason I got a nosebleed and Pekora-chan, yes I am adding chan because I like adding it and then Pekora-chan got her usual clothes all the sudden, then I got the notice about the two laws, the second laws is "Inheritor's Imagination can become partial real here but it only affect the 'dead' " , yes it turned out I got nosebleed and Pekora-chan got her clothes back because of the second law.

Then the grey world changed into crimson color in a moment before going back to the grey color, then after that is asked some question to Pekora-chan like "Are you a real person or a Virtual one?"or "Who is your real name?", well it was truly fun talking with her, with her high pitch voice, smug action when she beat me at a game, how fast she changes when she is about to lose, it was fun, but I confirmed the "Usada Pekora" I summoned is a Virtual Person, because even though I mentioned some of her offline collaboration, she remembered it as 'offline' collaboration but still in her virtual world.

I tried to experiment at Pekora-chan by telling her my wishes, I remembered at that time I was imagining my curiosity when I watched her video, the thought inside my head 'If she is this much of a fun person as V-Tuber Usada Pekora, I wonder how she is in Real Life?', with that intense emotion I asked "Who is your voice actor?" that was the most appropriate question I could think of at that time.

Strangely after I asked her those questions, I realized that Pekora-chan trough her crazy rabbit persona is a shy person, how could she interact normally and answered my questions like it's natural, when I asked her she just said, "Hmm… I don't know you just felt familiar peko."

After that I began to realize that all the summoned characters seem to have some degree of familiarity with me even though I am supposed to be a strangers to them and it was confirmed trough several next summon, they even have some friendliness toward me.

And in the next day when I entered the grey world again, I got a new law being informed to me "The Change to the world, must have a connection to the summoned one and the summoned one should also have some knowledge of it".

After that I summoned some V-Tuber I watched too, like "Shirakami Fubuki", "Ange Katrina" even though I hated NTR "Kiryu Coco" and more, there is also some other fictional character like "Kim Dokja" even though I haven't finished the novel and anticipating the manhwa, "Aparou", "Rem" from Re: Zero, I even hesitated while asking her whenever she want to change about Subaru's love interest, well basically the Sloth Route but she sad it was Subaru's choice and my heart got squeezed once more.

Well aside from playing with them or asking those experimentation question, I also always asked them to tell me their story and sometimes there is some story that is not included in the novel, manga, or anime, or perhaps it was told from a different perspective, their perspective, it was very interesting, this is the reason why I liked novels, mangas, animes, films, because I can know about other's live which is more interesting, fulfilling, sadder, happier, than me, that is also when I realized that I actually want to be a therapist or psychologist because of this reason.

That was what Michael had written in his book, Well to make people think he was just a Chuuni or Sourcing for material, he took a whole new notebook and gave it the tittle "Story Book", Michael then decided that he will write once a month as it coincidentally have been a month since he got the ability to come to the grey world.

Michael have decided that before he tried to even summon a human he want to summon a certain character, well he haven't summoned her ever since that 'incident' well Michael got a plenty of time to think and look deeper into himself, before he will let out what he have been thinking tonight!

ah yes this is a draft if i didn't fail to set the date correctly again
