Chapter 2: WTF?!!

Chapter 2: WTF?!!

"I am an administrator in charge of your sector of space and time and all its alterations; in your terms, I am a regional manager just on a very large scale," the voice said again.

"Why do you guys have to overcomplicate everything? Just say you are God," David said while rolling his eyes. For some reason, he was calmer than he expected.

He didn't know if it was because he couldn't feel any intent to harm from the voice or that he felt the voice was familiar for some reason. He didn't truly know; all he knew was that he was a lot calmer than he felt he should be in this situation.

The logical explanation should be that the being was making him calm, but he felt he was like this more because he had imagined this same scene multiple times in the past.

"How is this your first reaction when talking to a supernatural being? Wait, have you done this before?" the voice asked.

"Of course not. This weird level of calmness should be your doing, isn't it?" David asked.

"Am I... oh, sorry, but it helps. Anyway, I did come here in order to say thank you as well as give you a gift; your kind may need to survive what is to come."

"What does that mean?"

"Exactly what it means, though I can't elaborate further... I want to assume that your intuition as an author will allow you to guess the plot that is to come."

"Just go ahead," David said after taking a deep breath. 𝒃𝙚𝙙𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝙤𝙢

At this point, it was pretty obvious what was going to happen. He didn't know exactly how it would happen, but he could guess that either planet Earth or the entire universe itself would undergo some sort of awakening to bring us to a higher stage of some kind. It was a common trope in Korean Manhwas, just that he wasn't sure if this one would be like the Manhwas.

"Excellent! This event could either lead to your race's extinction or ascendancy, so I hope you do take this seriously," the administrator said.

"Of course I will; I am one of the dumbasses that could possibly go extinct; however, I swear to God if I do find out that this is some sort of machination by you administrators or whatever you call yourselves."

"Don't worry; despite our omnipotence, we do not possess such authority. Even the much freer gods below us don't possess such authority. Now, would you like to be given the gift, or do you want to ask questions?"

"Don't worry, I can draw my own conclusions when the time comes, so gift, please," David answered.

Being an author, especially a fantasy writer, means that you must have a very active imagination. Think of every possible ridiculous scenario you can imagine, then put it in a way that the readers would enjoy.

Whatever scenario was playing out now, he could guess where it would lead him, but only if he played things smart. In simple terms, this administrator, in his words, was a being that ruled over an entire section of the multiverse.

Basically, the god in charge of our sector of space and time, which could possibly mean the universe or part of the Multiverse, was so high up that the gods were below them, and apparently the world was about to go through some sort of change.

The only problem here was that the administrator refused to tell him what sort of change was to be expected. Would it mean an invasion from higher-world forces or just a simple introduction of a new element to the world? He had no idea what was to happen.

"With a mind as active as yours, a lot of gods would want you on their side. If the future event will be like the one in Sector 1647," The administrator said as a soft chuckle was heard.

"Were they made to gain patron gods or what?"

"Something like that? Now focus on your gift." the administrator said as a massive wheel appeared before him.

As the wheel appeared, the bed beside him vanished, leaving him alone in complete darkness with the wheel, which somehow produced enough light to make the dark space not feel dark. David walked up to the wheel to scrutinise it a bit, only to find it just like the ones one would find at any game show.

However, unlike the ones in the game shows, this one was so massive that he couldn't see the top, and the administrator seemed to have taken that into consideration as the needle pointing out the selected option was placed at the bottom of the wheel where he could see it.

As for the options written on the wheel, David read through all that he could see, and the more he read, the wider his eyes got as he saw some absurd abilities, items, and other things that he doubted he would need to survive any event. Some of the options here would make him so overpowered that this wouldn't even be a trial at all.

"Author Authority? Armour of invincibility? Heavenly RV, Guns of Chaos? Omnipotence! What sort of event will we have to go through?" David asked in shock.

He may not know what some of the options on the wheel did, like the guns of chaos and the heavenly RV, but he did know what author authority and omnipotence were. Those were abilities that would basically make him a god on Earth; they would render the event useless... He could just erase its source and be done with it.

"I never said the gift given would be equal to the event faced. It could be more powerful than you need or way less powerful, or it could be just what you need to lead a happy life without suffering in the event."

"That does make sense." David said as he walked towards the large wheel.
