1 Prologue

I am…

...me.

Kinda stupid thing to say, isn't it?

But, I ain't stupid. Not in the slightest.

I would even say that I was born a once-in-a-century genius, the likes of whom nobody had seen in centurie…

Wait a sec!! Wouldn't that make me a once-in-a-millennium genius? Holy Shit! That would be awesome. I am aweso…

A-ahem! I digressed. Let me go back to the point.

So, I would even say was born once-in-a-cen...-once-in-a-millennium genius.

If only I remembered who I was, or if I was ever even born.

That's the situation I found myself in.

With knowledge, but no memories.

I remember a shit ton of random data, subjects, comics, novels, and all sorts of miscellaneous knowledge, but, for the love of god (Yes, I remember something, or rather someone named God too.), I can't remember anything else pertaining to my life.

I can't even say for sure if I ever had one.

I know what a family is and what it feels like to have it, but I don't remember having one. I remember what the warmth of home feels like, but don't remember ever living in one.

All I remember is knowledge and while I am feeling are emotions but, once again, when and how did I acquire them?

Oh! How weird it is to feel embarrassment, anger, sadness, relief, happiness, and all sorts of emotions without even knowing the cause of them? It's like-

Confusing. Like, a newborn feeling embarrassment about peeing on it's father. It doesn't make any sense. Like my existence.

Summing it all up, I know a lot of things, but I don't know myself.

Odd, isn't it?

Hell, I even know how cliché my current situation of being surrounded by nothing but nothingness is, a courtesy of remembering all sorts of novels and fanfictions.

And I couldn't even mutter about not having arms or legs 'cause, as expected, I don't have a mouth…

No. Technically, I lack a voice box or any other cavity which I could use to produce sound, and that too if I disregard the apparent absence of a medium over here.

...On further considerations, is it me who lacks sensory organs? Is that why I can't see, hear, feel anything in the surrounding? Am I really just lying on a hospital bed with a totally broken, useless body with a serious case of selective amnesia, waiting for the inevitable death?

Or is it really the plain old nothingness, aka the void/chaos, the cradle of OP, harem protagonists with void in their upper, real brains too? Am I going to become like them?

.

.

.

…Hurrah?!!

Why do I feel excitement all of a sudden? And what's with the accompanying dread? Do I really want it or not? Be concise, my emotions!! Don't confuse me any more.

...Ah! Now, I'm just feeling horny. Guess, I really dig the harem part, huh.

I don't feel my body though. So, wouldn't it be better if I rather focus on something else, like, what do I do pass time now? If I'm really experiencing a cliché, then it can take millions of years for my Santa Clause to arrive with my gifts.

Also, that 'e' in Clause is intentional 'cause there's always a clause, with it ranging from apology to a mission or some other yada yada~

But that's thought for another time. For now, give me something to pass time, my knowledge!

Give me something… to believe in?~

Yes! That would do.

Give me something to believe in~

'Cause I don't believe in you anymore~

Anymooore~

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

...How much time has it been, I wonder?

.

.

.

Urgh.

Yes, despite the passing of years, I still remember reading a line like that or something similar at least thrice.

It isn't the first time that something like this has happened. In all these years I have found myself saying (Inside my mind, of course. I can't speak, remember?) or thinking something a character from one of the novels/ comics in my memories said or did.

So much so that I often wonder if anything I will ever do or say will even be original or will it just be another cliché written in yet another one of the mostly subpar collection of novels?

Will there be anything 'me' in the my actions or will I simply turn into a cheap copy of the character-deficient characters?

...It isn't visible but I cringed just now. Just the thought of turning into one of those edgy, bad-boi-wannabes, dishing out crap from my (hopefully present) mouth, with sky-high, baseless arrogance, and retarded decision-making capabilities made my soul shiver.

At least, I think it did.

Oh God!!

"..s?"

I am really starting to panic right now. I really, really hope that it won't be the case. Anything but that. I don't want to become a 2-D character. Nope. Nah. Never. Not in a million yea…

N-o…

No.

NoNoNoNo.

NO.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

It isn't that, is it? I haven't already become one of those things, right? Right?

"…m down."

...But, millions of years have already passed.

"..o days."

Even if I still have a personality (maybe?), but with nothing but the knowledge of those things inside my head, how long will it take to lose it?

"Shut up already!!!"

W-wh-o?

W-wait. Could it be…

System?!?!?!

"No-"

T-then, Santa Clause with an 'e'? Are you finally here? After all this time?

"Sigh...I will say it again. It has only been two days. Also, I'm not Santa Clause, especially not the one with an 'e'."

No-No-No. You should reply with an 'Always.' whenever somebody asks that question, you know?

Anyway, two days? TWO DAYS, you say? Surely you aren't kidding right? It isn't funny, you know?

"I- "

Forget it. There's more important matters to discuss. Like, will I be transmigrated or reincarnated? Which world will I be sent to? DxD? Naruto? Bleach? Please, it better not be Akame Ga Kill. Just the thought of that series makes queasiness bubble up, you know?

"Calm down."

Let's leave the world to later. I'm really pretty hyped up about the cheat I will get. Will it be super growth, or will it be a unique bloodline? Will it be a system? If so, please give a user-friendly one. And-and a system fairy(read A.I. waifu) is a must, okay? Even if that isn't possible, please at least make it possible to let me traverse the multiverse. Also, is it possible to get unlimited points to shop in the multiverse store? Damn, just the thought makes my soul quiver in joy.

"Yes, I can see-"

You can?!? It is really was me who doesn't have any sensory organs? So, does it mean that I'm really in the void/chaos? Did any soul other than mine ever made it here? Does this place provide any advantage to me? Is my soul mutated now that I've spent million…

.

.

.

Hey, can you come back later? Maybe in a million years or so?

"N-"

You can't, huh. It's fine, I guess. I'm not disappointed. Really.

...Maybe a little.

.

.

.

.

"Finall-"

...Do you perhaps have a daughter?

"Argh… I'm too tired of this shit…"

Okay-okay. No need to be so dramatic. Just two- no, just three wishes will do. I'll make it work somehow.

.

Hello?

You there?

.

...I was just kidding, you know? I didn't mean any of it. Really.

.

-Huh?!

What's with this sudden heaviness? And whats with this softness I feel on my back-

I feel?!

With the sudden realization, something changed and all of a sudden I 'felt' my eyes sting in pain due to the bright light surrounding me.

The next moment only one thought came to my mind.

Ah! An unfamiliar ceiling…

.

.

.

...F*ck.
