The Author Is Speechless

The book he wrote wasn't some ordinary book, nor was he an ordinary person. He holds the ability to see the future unknowingly and writes it down as great stories.  Little did he know, he would wake up in a different body in a world where he finds out the characters in his book…A world of magic, swords and monsters.  'Wait, this isn't a world from my novel. It's a real world and the novel is just my prediction of some people just like the guardian said. So I will just enjoy the show as an audience and leave after the story ends. I have a whole new world to discover in front of me.' But what awaits him was something he could never imagine. In front of the world, in front of the whole universe, his assumption was just a grind of sand. The truth of the world made him rethink his life and the life he lived back in another world.  Viktor North, the author, finds himself in the middle of the whole universe where he was nothing but an extra later in his life as he kept living. An extra who was abandoned by his mother, his brother who was an elemental guardian and also a demigod, his race and the God.  'But I prefer to sleep than going against these unwanted people and unwanted problems. I want to sleep. I just want to shut my eyes and sleep under my warm blanket, probably forever if it's possible.' This is the story of an author, a grand magician, a guardian who somehow became a god and the only thing he could think of was sleep.  He is the definition of what a 'Shut-in' is. ... ...

A good candidate

Viktor was pretty exhausted after being awake till sunrise. So, he skipped school and stayed at home to sleep for the entire day. He was so tired that he didn't even wake up inside his dream.

But it wasn't the case for the half-elf prince. He was awake the whole night on his guard thinking that someone might stab him in his sleep. But luckily, nobody went inside his room until 8 am in the morning. It was Adonis who went inside to serve him breakfast.

"Good morning sir. Please change into these clothes. I will serve your breakfast on the table." Adonis starts working while the half-elf was barely getting the meaning of everything. So he asked, "Why are you serving me food? You know I can kill anyone in just a second if that person is a little suspicious of me. And you are so suspicious, also your master."

"My master isn't a suspicious man. You should be grateful for my master's hospitality. Now please change your clothes and finish your breakfast. I will show you around the garden at 10 am."

"You guys are really strange. And why can't I smell you? Are you a human?" The half-elf boy asked him in curiosity but Adonis said nothing. He left the room after he served his food on the table. 

An hour later inside the greenhouse.

"This is my master's favourite place to hang out in the morning. He likes flowers and plants from different continents that don't usually grow on Vestrain land."

"He does look like a flower guy, but why does he have poisonous plants inside here?"

"Master uses them to make antidotes. Don't touch them, they are so poisonous enough to melt your hand in a day."

Adonis was guiding him around the mansion while his master was asleep. Because he warned him not to wake him up until he wakes up by himself. And the half-elf was impatient, so Adonis had to drive his attention away by giving him a tour around the house.

When they were almost on their way to the abandoned port, the half-elf boy saw the black boats tied up on the dock. It was already evening by that time. 

"This view is quite nice, is this also part of the property?"

"Yes, this is the master's evening hanging out place. Don't destroy anything. Let's go, master just woke up. He is currently eating his breakfast."

"Wait, breakfast? But isn't it night already?"

"Yes, it is."

     Adonis did a good job controlling that brat. It was a great sleep and my breakfast was also great. Kathryn has become the perfect maid of this mouse.

Suddenly, Kathryn looked above and said, "Master, I sense an eye looking at us." 

Viktor put his teacup on the table and said, "Don't worry, they can't see us. Even if they put thousands of eyes inside my house, we are still invisible to them."

"That's good then."

   The principal is checking on me because I didn't go to the academy today. Looks like I have to warn him about the eyes. It's so annoying.

But, why aren't they coming back? It's already evening.

Viktor looked outside through his window and saw them walking towards the house. So he assumed that they must've visited the abandoned port to see the sunset.

'They are finally back.' He mumbled and took the last sugary sip of his tea before both of them entered the study room.

"Master, I've brought the guest with me."

"Hm, good work. Now you are dismissed from your duty for today."

"Thank you, master. I will take my leave now."

Viktor saw the back of Adonis who left the room and then, his attention turned to the half-elf boy's face. The person was tall, had strong body fitness with dark green hair, and his attitude was of a king even though he wasn't yet. He was a king material.

"So, have you thought about my offer?" Viktor asked while he was pretending to be busy with a book. He was actually listening to his words and pretending to do something.

"I didn't give any thought about the opportunity you're giving me. But why do I feel so uneasy around you?"

    Oh? He's feeling it? I guess dragons and elves weren't good with each other anyways. I guess I have to conceal my dragon crest, then I hope he's comfortable around me. He will be a great pawn in my game.

 Viktor stayed quiet for some time and finally answered that he was feeling angry, that's why.

"I see."

After that awkward first encounter with the elf boy, Viktor invited him over for dinner to make him feel good. He knew the elf boy was feeling uncomfortable, but he didn't conceal it. He was having fun by teasing the small boy.

The half-elf boy had more than 60% of pure elf blood. That's why he was sensitive to smell. And the other half of his blood was from a powerful magic user. That's why his mana was far greater than an average elf or a human. 

When he was 6 years old, one of his relatives from his mother's side came to visit him. They wanted to adopt the half-elf as his son, but the elf elder forbids the family not to let in a dirty blood in the territory.

So, he was rejected before he was able to request to join the family. He was always alone. There was no place for him among the humans or the elves. He was hanging in the middle like a pendulum moving back and forth constantly.

His existence inside Viktor's novel was only in a line, but his power was enough to shake the whole storyline. So, Viktor decided to take him in and raise a good king for the country. Because the kingdom is going to fall anyway. It needs a long-term ruler to maintain the phase. And an elf is a perfect candidate for it. Because a half-elf lives more than 300 years.

   If he rejects my offer, I will have nothing to do but manipulate his memories with my crest. But it will only work for 10 years and I won't be there to re-cast the spell inside his head.  Looks like I need to use the old ways.

Viktor was unintentionally staring at his food that he accidently cut his dinnerware in half with the knife. "Oh, how clumsy I am!"
