My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character!-Chapter 33 - : The Author?
Chapter 33: Chapter 33: The Author?
Eren tried to understand what was happening.
He reached out to touch Celeste, but his hand passed through her. He realized that something was very wrong.
He looked around, searching for any signs of what could have caused this sudden disruption. But the surroundings remained eerily still and silent.
The air felt heavy with an unknown presence, and a sense of foreboding washed over him.
Eren's mind raced as he tried to come up with a possible explanation. Was there someone or something manipulating his reality? Questions swirled in his mind, but he had no answers.
Someone, who could manipulate reality to this extent? Just how strong was that person?
"Wait, manipulate reality..." Eren thought, his frown deepening. "The meeting... Are you finally here, Mr Author?"
At first, he didn't know who he was going to meet. But with the strange change in his surroundings, he was more than certain about the identity of the other side.
The Sect Master should have noticed something this strange. But she didn't arrive here. It meant she couldn't sense it. Or rather, she was also frozen.
The person he was meeting was someone who was even more powerful than the Four Overlords? There was only one person that came to his mind.
It was the god-like being who brought him to this world. It was the one who granted him this optional system. It was the true owner of the system, and the writer of the novel.
"You are quite fast," A voice came from behind Eren. "And before you attack me, let me remind you that-"
The person was in the middle of his sentence before Eren turned around, punching him with all his might.
This was the person who screwed his life over a single review. It was a being with godlike powers yet he couldn't accept the slightest criticism.
Unfortunately for Eren, his fist simply passed through the person and the couch on which he was sitting.
Eren passed through, falling on the other side.
"... that you won't be able to touch me." The unknown being finished his sentence. "It seems, I was late. My apologies."
Eren stood up, feeling frustrated. He had always thought about punching the smug face of the author. But now that he was here, he couldn't even touch him.
"Why can't I touch you? Are you hiding from a mere mortal?"
Eren asked as he walked back to his seat, facing the Author who was sitting on a black couch that wasn't here before.
He couldn't see the face of the person. It was as if the world itself was glitching to hide the face of that person.
The only thing he could see was the physique of the person, which made him look like a man, dressed in a black suit.
"Although you guessed who I am, you're wrong about one thing. I'm neither the Author, nor is this world a story."
"I don't care what you are, or what this world is. All I want to know is why I was brought here. Is it really because of your fragile ego?"
The other person started laughing in response.
"If only that was the case. Things would have been so much simpler. Unfortunately, that's not it."
"Then why me? What am I doing in this world? Why do I have to live in fear of being killed every day?!"
"That question... I can't answer. All I can tell you is that you aren't the only person from earth who is brought here."
"There are more? Did they also trash this novel in the review?"
The other person burst into laughter again. "Is this what you earthlings call comedy? Not bad."
The godlike being waved his hand. Following his movements, four books materialized before Eren.
All four books had a title written on the cover. Looking at the books, Eren grew even more confused.
The first book was titled, "Demon Lord's Ascent."
It was the title of the novel that he had read. It was the same novel in which he had left that review. It was the novel that depicted this world.
The second book was titled, "The Necromancer who returned from hell."
The third book was titled, "Rebirth of the SSS Rank Hero."
As for the fourth book, it was titled, "Revenge of the Fallen Priestess."
"These are...?"
Eren looked at the four books, frowning. He had only read one of the four titles, and that too, only a small part.
The novel had five thousand chapters, but he had only read the first two hundred Chapters of it.
He didn't understand what was with the other three titles. Was that the title of other novels that he hadn't read? But he was certain that the site only had one novel.
Looking at the titles, he had a bad feeling about it. Because the four titles reminded him of the four Overlord Regions of this world.
The first was the Region of Demon Sect, which was in the novel titled Demon Lord's Ascent.
The second was the Region of Necromancer Tower, which was in the book titled, "Necromancer who returned from Hell."
The third was the region of the Mythical Hero Academy, which was in the title, "Return of the SSS Rank Hero."
And lastly, it was the region of the Holy Church, which could be linked to the title, "Revenge of the Fallen Priestess."
"What are these four books?" Eren asked the unknown being. Although he asked a question, he had a feeling that he already knew the answer in his heart.
The man had said that he wasn't the only person who came from earth. If he came to the world of the Demon Lord's Ascent, then did it mean there were three more people from earth who came to three other regions of this world, in their own respective novels?
Although there were four novels, they all talked about a different aspect of the same world? How was it possible?
The possibility itself gave Eren a headache. Because if there were four novels, that meant there were four Main Characters as well?
