Character Sheet
Still with no ability to move my body, I continue to lay on the ground, watching the girl as she does… whatever she's doing.
With rapid keystrokes, Hyde furiously types on her laptop, having situated herself on the ground in front of me
Humming a slight tune all the while, adding quite a relaxing atmosphere around the strange girl.
Of course, her keystrokes only consist of rapidly hitting the delete key, and her humming is adorned with a relatively malicious smile.
"You wanted to know what a character sheet was… right Lily? Heh…"
Hearing my… new name, that I had almost forgotten about, my fishy face darkens slightly. Yet, learning from the last two times, I refrained from saying anything too rash to my new boss. Instead I tried to move my body in any meaningful way to affirm her question, only getting a slight twitch out.
She glances up at me, giving my pathetic display a slight 'Heh', before locking back onto the laptops screen.
"Well… it's pretty simple really, a character sheet is what decides what makes up your soul and life… from your identity, to even your fate or destiny or… soulmate, heh…"
Stopping for a moment she taps her chin slightly, looking off into the corner of the room, seemingly thinking.
"Well to put it simply, the character sheet is a tool that makes it easier to manipulate someone's soul or being… before the character sheet, us, the gods, would have to directly manipulate the soul… and that was really messy, yeesh…"
Taking the information in… well the explanation is rather barren… but I think I can get the idea… she's simply editing m…
'Wait! You're editing my soul!?'
"Huh… oh yeah, nothing major though… I'm just getting rid of some extra crap… like your fate, destiny... Soulmate... Hey, do you want to keep your memories or...? Actually nevermind I'll leave it be... And I think your personality is fine... If you were a bit more respectful towards me..."
Continuing on her little tirade, she continues to edit myself without anyone's permission. Realizing that my entire being and self is up to this girl, I'm a bit worried she might change something important but...
'She... She won't mess up anything too important... Right? Yeah, she's my boss, I should trust her more, she wouldn't mess with anything important...'
Falsely erasing my doubts, I decide to place my trust into my boss.
"Hmhm... That's the attitude, newbie! You should put more trust in your new boss, alright kid?"
Sighing in my heart, slightly uneasy at this goddesses intrusive habits, I decide to get comfortable, as I have a feeling this might take awhile.
"Anyway, Lily~! I think I'll only be making physical changes since your soul is already so cute! So just... Sit there for a bit, alright?"
For the first time since I've entered this room, not so long ago, this goddess had actually said something that didn't make me doubt her...
And as time passes slowly, the only sound filling up the room is that manic typing of Hyde, I can't help my eyelids as they grow in weight... Eventually fully shutting as I drift off to light sleep.

[POV SHIFT; B O S S H Y D E]

Glancing at the large eel, curled up on my floor like a dog sleeping, I sigh, since when did my loyal subordinate think sleeping on the job was appropriate?
Shaking my head at her unprofessional attitude, my mind starts to drift back to the strange fish.
'An SSR variant of the hyperfish... As well as a former human and a world traveler... I can't even locate her world in her character sheet... She's really interesting, isn't she?'
Well, the only reason I took her in in the first place is that I thought she'd be interesting to have around... Plus she'd make a good lackey...
Sighing at myself this time, I set my laptop on the ground, removing it from my lap, before leaning back, laying down on the wooden ground.
'To think that this little fish unsealed me after all these years... Once I find those bastards ill maul them to death!'
Yet, as the ideal of revenge on the people who sealed me reverberates through my mind, an uneasy expression starts to leak from my face.
"Ugh... Revenge? Who am I kidding? Petty things like that are what got me in this mess in the first place..."
Closing my eyes, I let a lengthy great out as various, blood-filled, images rampage my mind.
"Maybe... I should just live my life... Drift around for all of eternity, no grudges, no revenge, and nothing to tie me down... And maybe even..."
As I continue to mumble to myself, promising myself to live better this time, I stare off into the ceiling, my mind fantasizing about romance and love...
And then I scoff a moment later at these silly thoughts.
"Hah, as if I'd ever find someone great enough for me!"
Sitting up after a few more moments of rest, I glance at the fish, making sure she didn't hear me talking to myself.
'Welp... Guess I should finish her character sheet now...'

Hallo, author here.
I actually have something rather important to say this time and well...
Just some advice, don't take anything I day in these author notes seriously. I'm a rather impulsive person, and I say things that I don't actually mean in these.
Of course I know this is a bad thing, but I'm too lazy to change it so, eh.
Ah so, how was the different POV? This is the first time I've written another pov than the main characters...
Well that's not entirely true... I've written a 3rd POV before but not as much as I've written first person.
What I meant was this is the first time I've written first person pov not in the MC.
Well anyway, I tried to write Hydes pov differently than I did for MC, but I'm not sure in how well I did that...
And also, sorry if this seems to be kinda drawn out to you guys but... I'm really trying to stall having to rewatch or read anything.
Well anyway, that's all, I hope I didn't confuse anybody even more with this chapter...
Fucking~
Love~
You~
