2017 on Earth.
My name is... It doesn't matter, though. After all, I'm just an ordinary teenager, like millions of them. Everyone has their own characteristics, and I want to tell you about those of me.
Let's start with appearance. Totally unremarkable. What are my differences, though? Well, above-average intelligence. Complete detachment from this world, due to a not very pleasant past. But that's not the point.
I read novels and other cultural treasures, but I always wanted to die and be in another world. I wanted magic and adventure. After all, that's what everyone wants. Everyone dreams of being a hero, saving a princess and gaining universal love and fame. But I didn't dream of being a hero...
I longed to be a villain, to make shenanigans, to wreak havoc, to kill... After all, it's much more fun! And yet, in spite of these desires, I still had my humanity. I didn't want to kill innocents. But to those who were guilty of something, I would be as cruel as possible.
Okay, I'm getting a little off topic here. Anyway, I wanted to go to another world, like in so many novels and games. What else is a loner to do but become an otaku? But the damn truck wouldn't come for me. I guess it didn't want to come to this godforsaken place and break down on the dirt road. And so, my fate would have turned out like millions of other fates - useless and pointless, but..... One day, walking down the street, I saw him. Just like in the anime or manga. The spark, the storm, the madness!!! Horror gripped me as I was walking on the sidewalk away from the road... Is he following someone else? I won't allow it! And I didn't miss my chance. With a speed I had never exhibited before, I found myself on the road, and then under the wheels of our reaper. I felt no pain, it all happened too fast. I was dead.
