The Unrecorded Extra
Before I woke up, I had a dream about the end of the world. At first, it felt like a vivid nightmare that left me shaken. But as I slowly woke up, I realized that the dream was the pre-ending scene of my own novel. I am Zio Varrez, an unnamed character in my own book, and to my disappointment, an extra. As I lived in my novel's world, I couldn't help but feel that my existence was meaningless. But what made it worse was the fact that the ending of my book was the end of the world - a bad ending. I knew I had to do something to become strong enough to change the world's fate, even if it meant altering the story I once knew completely. Little did I know, there was more to this world than I realized, and the journey I was about to embark on would uncover secrets that I never even imagined. "I thought I knew everything about the world, but as I lived and experienced it, I realized there was so much more to it than I ever imagined." === Daily update! === Author note: The story is going on rather slow pace, expect the boredom for the early 60 chapters
Groom The Flame III
'Don't get swayed Zio! Remember what your purpose here is!'
Clearing my throat, I started the conversation.
"So… What's the occasion? To think you'd invite me to hang out like this, just the two of us. I was surprised honestly."
She was peeking at me while she placed her order to the waiter that came to our table. As she had done, she turned to face me and slightly cocked her head.
"Surprised? Why?"
"Why you said? You literally looked like someone who didn't want to get bothered by people. Even I am still reluctant to talk to you."
"You talked a lot to me these past few days doesn't seem reluctant to me."
"Well. That's because I was bored. Enzo always sleeps, and Niah and Lio are always together like two different sides of a magnet. You're the only one I've never tried to strike a conversation in the group."
"You're popular in class. Surely there is someone else you can try to talk to if you are bored."
