I open my eyes, only to see everywhere around me was dark like a void. Though after looking down at myself, I can visually see my limbs, that chubby stomach, undressed, Surprisingly, I remember I jumped off the rooftop.
"Shouldn't I be dead by now?"
With mumbling to myself and inner thoughts passing in and out of my skull, I suddenly got startled by a blue window. It appeared in front of me and said, 'Status Bar'.
[Name: .....]
[Lifespan: 180 years]
[Strength: 10]
[Speed: 3]
[Stamina: 50]
[Intellectual Capability: Nerd]
[Charms: 1]
[Feats: Was Cuckold By Wife, Unalive own self At 36, Was An unemployed Shut-in, Sucks In Gaming]
"Ooh, I see, I do remember those feats, but strength, stamina..."
I was puzzled because it was almost like I was playing some kind of RPG and this was just a dream. Although I was sad that this status bar reminded me of something that I always avoided, thinking as if that was just a dream too. I guess reality is sore.
I pinched myself to see if I was dreaming or not, and alas, it wasn't.
"I guess I'm in hell," I whispered to myself with a little bit of sadness in my tone.
"Loser as ever, I see," an inner voice spoke to me. I got frightened and immediately stood up from the slimy black surface. I looked around in every direction, and there was no one. I clenched my fists even if I knew it was useless. I suddenly felt heavy footsteps, which caused a noticeable vibration with each step. I immediately turned around and saw something that no one would ever believe.
A naked, white-hide, masculine body type. Almost humanoid. Obviously male because of that inhumanly huge manhood hanging between its thighs. Bald head. No facial structures. Not even ears. This entity's height was maybe 10 or 12 metres.
I assumed this entity could converse telepathically. And I was correct. Even before I could complete my inner thoughts, I heard the same voice as before.
"I don't get it."
I was confused. What did this entity mean? I then submissively asked,
"I don't understand. What do you mean?"
"Why bother explaining myself to you? Let's just get to the point. Your death was an error of the system. You can almost say a bug or glitch—whatever you want to call it."
I could feel the arrogant attitude of this entity in the way it was negotiating.
"Excuse me."
"Oops."
I guess he could read my mind.
"Exactly like a book," the entity added telepathically. It sounded prideful for any divine being. I gathered courage and boldly asked,
"Are you the devil himself or the celestial?"
I bet my life not to anger this prideful being. The silence before his reply was heavy.
"Humans still believe in those? Alas, they are delusional as fuck. What did you expect? Like I'll be formal and something like, 'Greetings, Oo Tragical Mortal'… fuck your expectations."
He was completely a rude bully type. I didn't need to feel or imagine it, because I could understand from his slang.
"Do you know about isekai?"
I nod my head in affirmation.
"Great, because I genuinely… even though I was the one who made your life shitty…"
The entity suddenly stopped his telepathic signals. I could assume, from his arms-crossed standing posture, that he was plotting something. I just hoped it wouldn't be shitty again like my past life.
"Don't worry. I'm the creator, and I'm not that much of a maniac."
I gave him a nervous smile.
"Yes. You aren't."
"I will give you a second chance, but in another world. A leveling systematic world—which you already know , isekai stuff. So, You will have only two options."
I gulped my nervousness, cleared my throat, and calmed my nerves before I questioned him.
"Okay, can you tell me those options?"
I was breathing heavily with anticipation, hoping this time it would be better at least.
"You can live in a world which I created for fun. No limits, except it's a fantasy world with energy systems, leveling, tier systems… blah blah blah."
I was confused. If I were to live in a gaming-like world, then those were essential, weren't they? Isn't it obvious? That's what I was thinking before he cut me off.
"I know, I know. You are confused. Don't overthink. You can just read your status bar for all the information. So, are you in or out?"
I could feel his hesitation. He didn't even bother to explain "no" because he was prideful. Instead, he was hiding something. I nodded my head, agreeing to be isekai'd into another world. It was unknown, but also thrillingly exacting.
"Good then, I'll grant you any three wishes as your specialities."
"Can I have a few moments to think about it?"
I murmured, hoping he would allow me a few minutes to think and strategize what I'd basically need. And he did.
After a while, I answered, "I have made up my mind. I'd like to have money or coins, whatever the currency there is, with a farming system of my own."
Surprisingly, the entity nodded his head as if he was willing to grant that wish.
"Second, I'd like to be omniscient in your world."
This time, he immediately cross-cut me with hesitation.
"I granted that speciality to another isekai'd person like you—with a few conditions."
"There were others?"
He didn't answer, just continued to explain what else he could grant as a second speciality.
"What do you think about 'foresight' as a second speciality?"
I nodded with a soft smile. I was getting comfortable with him.
"Sure. Can I now continue with my final wish?"
"Yes, you can."
"I'd like to be a non-human person."
"Done. And now close your eyes. The next time you open your eyes, you'll be transmigrated into another world as a non-human individual."
Before I closed my eyes, I murmured,
"Despite being a prideful divine entity, you are surprisingly fun to talk with. Farewell, Mr. Rude Entity."
I immediately shut my eyes. I could feel he was intrigued by the sudden nickname.
