Chapter 15: Receiving Penalty
RAVEL'S POV—
As the portal opened, I was thrown out of it. Argh, next time, I would be careful. I got up and dusted myself. After dusting, I looked around myself. Around me, there were humans and aliens, Amanto to be specific. They were busy in their respective works. Some were selling fruits and vegetables, some were cleaning, some were discussing among each other, and some were idling around. Did nobody see me when I appeared from the portal?
Ryan said, "It's a normal think for them."
'Oh.' Right now, I am in a shounen based world, but this world's setting is absurd. It's a world where aliens called Amanto, took over the earth by defeating the samurais of this world. Gintoki Sakata, the protagonist, is an ex-samurai/samurai, who has his own set of principles, or, we could say bushido. Right now, I am standing in front of the Yorozuya, the place where Gintoki is the boss.
Suddenly, an old woman came out of the bar underneath the Yorozuya. I remember her name to Otose, the owner. Upon seeing me just outside, she asked, "Little girl, what are you doing outside of my shop? If you are here for food then, this is a wrong place. This is a bar."
Shaking my head, I replied, "No-no, I am here for Gintoki." Hearing my words, her face turned akin to disgust. She sneered, "What do you need from that good-for-nothing? Don't tell me—"
"Wait! Stop there! It's nothing like that. I have some business with him," I interrupted her. This is the problem of this world. Its absurdness is insane. She sighed, "Ok, go ahead then. But be careful, he is injured right now."
Nodding, I climbed up the stairs and knocked his door. From inside, a voice yelled, "Come in!" Sliding the door, I entered inside. Their sitting on the sofa was the protagonist, Gintoki Sakata. He had unkept silver hair, dead fish eyes and a wooden sword in his hands. He said, "I have some personal work, little girl. If you have any job, I can't do it now. Come later." Even his voice is... dead. Is it the right word? Ah, who cares?
Ryan said, "Quick! Challenge him."
'Huh? Why?'
"If he concedes defeat, you can still his protagonist stature." Is it this easy? At that moment, a huge, I mean a very-very huge white dog comes in. Sadaharu, yes, this was his name.
Gintoki said, "Huh, good morning, Sadaharu." The dog looked him and without saying anything, ate him.
Gintoki yelled, "Oiiiii!!!! What are you doing? How many times I have to tell you that I am not a bone? Let me out! Oi!! Kagura, help me!" His voice was coming distorted as he was half inside Sadaharu's mouth. Ok, this sounds weird, very weird.
But this is my chance. I said, "Gintoki, if you concede your defeat then, I can help you."
"Yeah-yeah, I concede defeat. Now, help me."
|Congratulations! You have become the protagonist of this world. Congrats! You are now the protagonist of Gintama. |
|As now, you are the protagonist of this world, the settings have changed. |
|Choose from the below:-|
|Comedy Setting|
|Vampire Setting|
|Zombie Setting|
|Mecha Setting|
|Action Setting|
|Bl Setting|
'Cut the last option. Right now.'
Hearing the tone of my voice, Ryan gulped loudly. He said, "Ravel, I... can't to do this. Like I said before, it depends on your luck."
'Then, use the damn Time slip. Reverse the time.'
"Time slip won't work on the user. You can use it on others and reverse the time. But using on others also won't help you in changing these options."
So, I don't have any choice now, do I? Biting the bullet, I rolled the dice and closed my eyes. Suddenly, Ryan yelled, "Open your eyes! You didn't get '6.' Open your eyes, Ravel."
I slowly opened my eyes and saw that the number was '3.'
|This world would be changed into that of Zombie Setting in three seconds. |
|3|
|2|

|This world is now successfully, a zombie world. |
|As the settings have changed, and you haven't followed the protocol. You will receive a penalty. Except your biological powers, all others would be locked. Good luck! |
What? What!!! It's not my fault! You are the one who changed this world setting! Not me! Suddenly, Gintoki and Sadaharu stopped moving. Blood oozed from each and every part from Sadaharu's body. He spit out Gintoki. Even Gintoki was in similar condition. He coughed out blood. He stammered, "W-what is h-h-happening? W-what—" He couldn't complete his sentence as he stopped breathing. The same was for Sadaharu.
Suddenly after several seconds, Gintoki's arm moved. Here, it comes.
'Ryan. You better have an explanation for this.'
Gintoki opened his eyes. His eyes were no longer that of human. It was a mixture of red and black. Seeing me, he snarled. Saliva was dripping from his mouth. Getting up, he made the first move.
