Volume 1 - Ch Prologue 2



Prologue, Part 2

With my excitement quickly rising, I decided to click on the link. Who knows, maybe it will point me towards some good alternatives to suicide? I am just a teenager in his second year of high school after all, so checking out the alternatives before committing myself to the real deal was understandable.

Now lets see what we have here uh-huh, all right, cool, I get it

I muttered to myself as I was slowly scrolling down the page. To give you a brief rundown of its contents, it stated that if you find your own world to be a shitty place where you absolutely cannot live, then why not move to another one?

That was not what I was expecting, if I am to be honest. But on the other hand, there was a surprising amount of sense to it. I mean, think about it: if youre fed up with the world you live in, then switching to one that that is more to your liking is kinda obvious.

The page listed many examples of such worlds: a world which is technologically advanced, a world where pirates and their ships make the law, an ancient world filled with swords and magic such a world might really not sound so bad. If I chose something like that, I could move to a world which was inhabited not only by disgusting humans, but also beautiful and noble elves, hard-working dwarves or even demi-humans and beasts lived together. That would certainly be interesting.

But how can you move to such a world, you ask? Thats simple, really. The answer to that question is: through games. Internet ones, to be more specific.

And it just so happens that the page was providing links to the main pages of all kinds of games, not only the ones that I listed above.

. Ah screw it, You Only Live Once Rolls for the win, were starting over!

As a result, I ended up with a total value of 60. Figures. Nothing like a little bit of F rank gacha luck kicking you in the nuts to remind you that youre not the hot Sh*t you thought yourself to be. Are we going to leave that poor 60 be and finally start the game? Hell no! I rolled something good once, so I can do it again, even if I have to result to using the most secret, forbidden technique of stat rolling: [Rapid Fire Mouse Clicking]! While I am furiously clicking away, heres some random trivia about this technique for you: the most skilled of its users are supposedly able to achieve the clicking frequency of 30 clicks per second! Isnt that like, awesomely unreal?! I wonder what games they were playing in order to achieve such a form at using it (TL NOTE: Ever heard ofStarCraft, kid?).

As I continued to click like crazy, having nothing more but my eyes to rely on when to stop, a number 8 flashed before my eyes. Was that number 80 just now? It was 80, wasnt it?! Unfortunately, the number that was displayed on the screen when I stopped tapping that left mouse button was a measly 19. CRAP BASKETS! I did it! For just a brief moment I have scored that legendary 80 and I blew it out the window! OF-FUCKING-COURSE!!! And you know what comes next? Thats right, you guessed it, were starting over one more time!

*Inhale* *Exhale* *Inhale* *Exhale*

My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined even more than it already was. *Sigh* well, no use crying over spilt milk I guess, were just back to the Redoville for the moment.

The next few attempts were filled with 60 and 70 somethings, but lets be real here guys, all right? You know as well as I do that after scoring that 80 once I wasnt going to stop until I scored another 80 again. This is what we players do after all, it is literally in our blood, that competitive drive, or what normies would normally call a [Hold My Beer Syndrome]. Weve all been there or at least saw someone from our surroundings being there, right? That certain someone who is like [Come on man, theres no way that youll actually *insert whatever stupid thing here*] and the other guy, being an absolute Chad Thundercock of a madman that he is being all like [Im not going to do it? Im not going to do it?! Here, hold my beer!] usually followed by poor Chad either embarrassing himself in front of everyone or hurting himself in a really stupid way. Of course, with my personal situation being the way it is I have never really had the chance to be such a Chad myself, which is why now is a perfect, probably once in a lifetime opportunity for me.

[Give it a break you loser, theres no way someone like you can score 80 or higher while rolling stats!]

Oh yeah? Well you know what?! Screw you! Screw every last one of you Chads with all your Stacies and successful normie lives! This is my time to shine now! I will do it! I will beat this Reroll icon like its my meat on a lonely Friday evening and Ill roll the best stats possible!

Okay, everyone ready? Hold on to your seats then, cause were taking this icon for a ride!
