1 New addition arrived in the Land of Illusion and Dream (1/2)

Editor: Acerman

So, yeah…

[Congratulation!]

That just happened….

[You have been chosen for testing a new system that we ”the Creator” have established called ”Pioneer of the Universe” !]

A Blue box suddenly appeared in front of my face…

[You will be transferred into another universe that you choose while we process data about your interaction with the ”local”.]

I was having a meal in the cafeteria of my workplace….

[You also will be granted ability and item to survive in that world, and after some time, if we are satisfied with your results, we will put more investment into you.]

With my buddy that was talking about stuff, as if this blue box in front of my eye did not exist at all…..

[Please respond to this message by saying ”System Start” in a clear voice to start the preparation of your departure. You have time limit until tomorrow to respond to this message. Thank you.]

*blink*.

[P.S. We figure that you will have a hard time believing this message, so we will give you evidence in your hand.]

*grip* I felt something in my hand beside my spoon. I put down the spoon and opened my palm, and I saw it.

A coin, a golden coin, with the word ”Pioneer of the Universe” on it.

”Dude, that's a cool coin you got there, mind if I see it?”

”Uh…yeah, sure but give it back after that okay?”

”Of course, no worries.”

My buddy took the coin and examined it.

”Hmm…quite heavy, and a gold color too, where did you get it? The Cereal box? They usually gave out this kind of stuff back in the day.”

”Uhhh…probably. It just suddenly got there in my hand, you know…”

”Dude. I know you are kind that does random stuff sometimes but I hope you are not one of those people that use drugs or alcohol.” He said with worried look.

”Of course not dude! You know me; I'm a healthy man in inside and outside.”

”Yeah, whatever, as long as you don't bring trouble to me then I'm good. Well gotta go back to work.” He said, giving me back the coin.

I took it and he went back to work.

I looked at the Coin and started to examine it too.

”If what I read was true then I need to research that Universe more thoroughly…and fuck works if I'm actually gonna go to another world tomorrow anyway” I said as I stored the coin back in my pocket and went to my boss office for an early leave.

-Afternoon, My Home-

23 Years Old, black hair normal dude, not too skinny and not too fat, no girlfriend, have a couple of siblings, parent still alive, sound normal right, and then everything changed after the man touched the Internet….well I already had the Internet before that but this is for dramatic value and that value already crumbles as I speak, brilliant.

Well, back to what I wanted to say, I don't have a problem with going to another world and stuff because I want something interesting happen in my life. This thing is giving it to me and also I don't really 8, so I don't have a reason to refuse it.

”Okay then…let's check out this program...*in hale* System Start.”

[Command Received.]

[Welcome to ”Pioneer of the Universe” Program.]

[In this program, the User will be granted with an ability and item that the user chooses, this will increase user survivability rate as they are sent into another world that the user chooses as well. We will record data as the User interacts with anything from selected world, we will also occasionally give the User quests for obtaining necessary data. The User will be rewarded for these quests.]

[The User's existence will be erased from any record from the original world for simplicity's purpose.]

[Press button bellow for starting the program.]

[Yes, let's start] [No, I refuse]

[Consequence for refusal of the program will be memory deletion of this program]

[Time Limit : 22 hours 32 minute remaining.]

*blink*

Well, that's one problem already been taken care of. Now I have about 22 more hours to prepare.

I got an idea about an ability and item that I want to choose, that's like on top of my head whenever I read any fantasy novel.

Alright then, let's blow my bank account if my exsistance is gonna be erased after I left from this world.

-6 Hours later, My Home-

After 12 bags of emergency food, fruits, snacks, kitchen utensils, etc, etc, and more etc.

”FUCK! MY! LIFE!” I dropped the bags and greedily inhaled some air.

As I gasped for breath, I reached into my pocket and take out the Coin.

”*gasp* I *gasp* hope *gasp* you're *gaaaaaaasp* fucking real buddy *gasp*”.

After I said what I wanted to be said, I put it back into my pocket.

Taking care of the food problem, even though I can possibly buy food in that universe, but this is precaution.

Checking the time, I have 14 hours remaining.

”*gasp* Now, let's research everything about that place…”

I said as I turn on my laptop.

”Hm…maybe I need to bring my laptop too, just in case.”

-12 Hours later, My Home-

2 Hours Remaining…

”….Glory to Red Bull, 12 hours without sleep, including breakfast and and…..whatever….”

I get up and begin packing my clothes, bringing 12 bags of everything aaaaand taking a bath.

Getting back with fresh clothes, My favorite jogger shirt, black jeans, and leather sandals.

”Okay, let's do this….*inhale* System Start.”

[Press button below to start the program.]

[Yes, let's start] [No, I refuse]

Pressing Start.

[Please speak the name of Ability.]

”Vector Change.”

[Vector Change Lv.1 is chosen]

Yeah, Vector Change, the ability of ”Accelerator” from ”To aru majutsu no index” series. The Ability that's prided with it absolute redirection of everything, making it almost impossible to touch the user of that ability. About why I said almost in my sentence; if you read or watched the series I do not need to explain it to you.

If I want to survive in that universe then I will shamelessly ask for this ability.

”Lv 1 ?” I asked, ”Don't want to become OP immediately, I see.” I nodded understandingly.

[Initiate Ability Installment]

”Wait-wha” Before I finished my words, it came, ”UUAAARRRGGHHH !”

The pain came from my brain, I knelt and clutched my head, screaming from my lungs, hopeing the pain would stop.

10 second…30 second…1 minute…..2 minutes…5 minutes and it's over.

[Installment Finish]

Gasping for breath, I wiped away my drool and tears.

”*gasp* I know the head is one of humanity's weaknesses but *gasp*holy shet that hurt like hell, *gasp* hope no one called police to my home because of that scream.”

After I calmed down, I felt it.

The Power.

It's shrouding my body. It's there but it's invisible. It's there but it's weak.

”Let's test this ability.” I said, ”First, slide forward.”

And then I'm sliding forward….toward a wall.

”Wait, STOPPPUUU !” I stopped, ”Need more practice with this thing and I still have more than 1 hour so I have time.”

-50 minutes later, My Home-

1 hours remaining…

”Okay, I think I got every move set from this ability in Lv.1 state.” I said reassuring myself.

”Next, the Item.”

[Please speak the name of the Item]

”Infinite Space Bag, Waist Pouch Edition.”

[Infinite Space Waist Pouch is chosen]

*sigh* I sighed in relief, ”They actually got it.”

[Transferring Item]

*plop* a waist pouch suddenly falls into my hand.

I smirked, ”Test number 2.”

-30 minutes later, My Home-

Less than 30 minutes remaining...

”So, items that can be stored inside are the ones that more or less fit into the opening of the pouch, huh common sense indeed.”

I finished packing up everything that can fit into the Waist Pouch. One last thing….

”System, can I turn my body into 15 years old body when I finish transferring into another Universe?” I asked the system.

[Sending User Request]

[User Request Accepted]

”Too Fast!” I was astonished with how quick the response is; they probably didn't care as long as they get a data from my interaction.

About this ”turn into 15 years old thing”, I know I'm putting myself at massive disadvantage with how pathetic my punch gonna be, but this is why I have Vector Change and a brand new survival knife that I just bought. Now let's hope Youkai skin isn't made out of metal. The purpose for this age thing is ”Communication”, about half of the main cast look like teenagers so why don't I just turn myself into teenager too instead of 23 years old man that trying to be hippie with kids? I also want to interact with the young un too (spits into the ground).

Now, that that's taken care of.

I grabbed my leather jacket; you know what they say about jacket, ”when a knife wants to meet a body, they need to meet the jacket first.” Kinda obvious really but it's the truth. Additional PRO-TEC-TION !.

”System, picking the destination !”

[Please speak the Universe name]

'Gensokyo !”

[Destination : Gensokyo]

Eyup, Gensokyo it is. Flying armpit miko, ordinary magician girl, godly gap ”forever 17”, and other fantasy goodies.

[Insert Pioneer Coin]

Grabbing the coin in my pocket, I looked at it one last time, not regretting leaving this world, only excitement, adrenalin, fun thing, and all that sweaty stuff after this. Oh yeah, I'm gonna be Youkai dinner hahahaha I'm such pessimistic little bitch.

Inserting the coin into the blue box.

[Initiating User Transfer]

-Muenzuka, Gensokyo-​

In the forest of cherry blossoms, a land covered with red spider lilies, there's a peculiar cherry blossom, the special characteristic of the tree is that it's big in size with purple colored flowers.

Once a year, the purple flower will bloom, the tree will purify its land and sever all hesitation from all phantoms and ghosts to go to Road of Liminiality. So once a year, the tree will do house cleaning and tell all the spirit things to get the fuck out from here and get judged by Yama already.

And one teenager suddenly appeared in front of that big tree.

Me POV​

Suddenly my eyes scan over a forest, a forest of cherry blossoms with red lilies on the ground.

I absentminded stood like that for a minute before I finally realized.

”Like I said, THAT WAS TOO FAST!” I yelled from the absurdities of the situation.

After I calmed down from my outburst, I looked around and finally I looked back.

That's one big ass tree with purple flowers at that.

Big purple flower cherry blossom + a ton of red lilies on the ground, only one place comes to mind.

This is Muenzuka.

The only place where an Outsider could accidentally get into Gensokyo and almost every time become Youkai dinner. A graveyard for the nameless or relativeless Gensokyan.

I take out my survival knife from the pouch.

Something feels weird. It feels weird. The knife feels weird. It feels…heavier.

I looked at myself, still in my attire, leather jacket, white jogger shirt, black jeans, waist pouch, and leather sandals.

”…nothing changed.” Oh wait, ”I forgot about it for a minute there.” different voice.

15 years old body, perfect for anime cast bullshit and maybe the worst mistake of my life.
