NOVEL NEXT WORLD Chapter 1: Are you sure you didn't make a mistake ?
In the void where the time itself is frozen, there's a two-story house. This house belongs to a couple. And this couple isn't just any ordinary couple. Both of them are gods. And these two gods are in charge of the entire reincarnation cycle.
And as everyone knows, since the reincarnation cycle is like an atm machine: something that rarely needs to be fixed, these two gods have a lot of free time on their hands. Couple with their long lifespan that is close to infinity things could get boring.
So like any normal person would do, both of them decided to have their own hobbies to kill time. The wife started the hobby of becoming an Outaku while the husband would write and read novels.
Since both of their hobbies somewhat complement each other they lived their married life with no problems. When the husband is in need of ideas for his novel he would turn to his lovely wife. When the wife is having problems choosing a suitable light novel to start the day the husband would help her by summarising their content.
Both of them continued their lives happily while occasionally checking on the reincarnation cycle. And it was not until today that they had a serious problem.
"Dear, isn't Mavis and Zeref too pitiful? They are obviously very kind individuals. Why is that they are the only ones who are suffering from the Contradictory Curse? " the wife asked as she wiped away her tears.
"Sigh, dear, that is something even I can't understand. Zeref's situation is a bit understandable since he brought back the dead but Mavis is too much. Obviously, there are many people who did the same as them like Precht and Makarov who used the Fairy law many times but came unscathed. And furthermore, Jellal was even reborn due to the R system so logically he should be cursed too. "The husband said with a sigh.
"Hey dear, I think it is because that guy Ankhseram is just being a sadistic bastard. I mean think about it. There was a demon Zeref created that is able to do necromancy which is basically something that falls under Ankhseram's domain. But did he cast that curse on that demon no. He only targeted Zeref because he knew that Zeref would suffer the most because of this curse.
We all know Zeref was cursed because he dead brother back to life. Which means his love for his brother is the greatest. And so Ankhseram wanted Zeref to kill his own brother by his hands so he would fall into the deepest depths of despair.
Mavis's situation must also be the same. He knew Zeref might have some lingering attachments towards her. So he cursed her to torment Zeref even more. And when Zeref only died his mind broke further. " the wife said, making the man speechless. Even he as an author didn't have that much of a rich imagination.
"So what do you propose "he asked. He knew his wife wouldn't say all that explanation if she didn't want anything that required his agreement.
" I wanna send a soul so he can defeat Ankhseram and finally break the curse of Zeref and Mavis, " the wife said with sparkling eyes, She was very interested in trying this out after reading many isekai manga.
"You know that would be us abusing our authority right " the husband asked as he raised an eyebrow. But he didn't seem to mind the idea.
" Technically we aren't. We are just giving a soul an opportunity to enjoy his life while giving him a mission to punish some misbehaving guy who is bringing shame to the name of God. " The wife said with a smirk.
" Oh that could work," the husband said as he agreed with his wife. And besides, no one would bother to question them even if their meddling was caught.
Unlike other gods, their position is a bit special. And besides with their past record of not doing anything stupid the other gods couldn't really point fingers at them.
" Okay now since we both are in agreement, let's find a suitable soul to be our agent and let him kill Ankhseram, " the wife said cheerfully. And with a snap of her fingers, a vortex appeared in front of them.
Soon from the vortex a single soul was spit out. The soul was like a white light bulb without any form. The soul didn't have any consciousness as it was in a deep sleep since it was in the reincarnation cycle.
The husband snapped his fingers and the soul slowly began to form. It was the form of a teenager. The boy opened his eyes and looked around very curiously. "Where am I ? is this hell or heaven " he murmured as his gaze finally met the couple.
The wife smiled and said, "Welcome little one the place you are is our home so you are neither in heaven nor hell. "
" Adrian Walker, a male who lived till his late 20s. Lived an orphaned life due to his parents abandoning him at childbirth near an orphanage. Lived a secluded life due to the fact you have a bit of a shy personality. Became a successful and famous archaeologist due to your love of history and ancient relics.
At the age of 25, you were diagnosed with a brain tumour And finally, you live a short life of close to 27 after getting into a traffic accident. . " the husband said as he read the file of Adrian.
" That seems to be right, " Adrian nodded as he heard everything about his life laid out in front of him. Although he lived a rather short life he enjoyed every bit of it. Even at his death, he didn't die because of the brain tumor. He died because he jumped into a highway street to protect a woman and a child who was almost hit by a truck.
" So Adrian, do you have any questions you want us to answer first. " the wife asked as she saw Adrian reminiscing about his life.
"Yes, actually can you tell me if that woman and child survived the accident? "Adrian asked as he looked at the two gods. It was something he couldn't find out before his last breath.
Maybe it was due to his regret of not having any parents or because he knew he did not have much time to live but when he saw that woman was about to die in front of her own child his body moved on itself.
" Yes, they both survived thanks to you. " The husband said as he checked the records.
Adrian breathed a sigh of relief. ' now that I got that out of my chest ' he thought as he looked at them and asked, " Is there any reason you summoned me? "
" Yes, in fact, we want you to do a little mission. " The wife said as she handed a folder to Adrian that she brought it up from nowhere.
Adrian took it and began to read it. After reading it for a while he had an odd look on his face. He then asked, "Ah not be rude but are you sure you didn't make a mistake? I have literally no fighting power and even if I had anything I only know a little about the Fairy Tail world. And that too was after reading a fanfic. In fact I didn't even get to read the original version so my knowledge about the plot is basically nothing "
Yes before his accident he came across this Fairy Tail fanfic and loved it. So when he went out to buy the original light novel that accident happened. Ironically it was just in front of the store he died.
