POV: Luan
Since my night with Lili, a few days have passed. Since the day I bought the internet, I still haven't had the courage to go back to my room and take a look at everything that was happening in my old world.
I don't know why, but I feel like contacting my family and friends isn't a good idea.
In the end, I died.
My body must be buried in some small cemetery in the region where I used to live. The last time I "saw" my mother, she was crying and missing me. What would she think if I sent her a message?
She knows that I'm dead, after all.
She would definitely think that some hacker had hacked into my accounts and was playing with her. That could hurt her even more.
"Time kept passing in that world..." How many months has it been? I have no idea. Despite having a good memory, my sense of time is completely distorted.
Huff~~
Sighing, I got up and washed my face in the bathroom. My hair had gotten very long; it had grown incredibly quickly. "Should I cut it?" After thinking about it for a while, I decided to cut my hair.
I'll ask Hestia to do it for me. I trust her to do something like that.
I went downstairs and went to Hestia. She was sitting on the couch with Haruhime. The two of them were having tea together.
"You slept late today. Were you really that tired?" Hestia asked.
"Yes, I was tired. I'd like to ask you for something."
"Hm? Ask me for something?" Hestia was surprised since I rarely ask her for anything.
"Yes, I want you to cut my hair for me."
"What!?" As soon as she heard that, Haruhime stood up from the couch. "Cut your hair? No, don't do it! It's perfect like this!"
Huh? I didn't know she liked long hair. I'm surprised.
"What do you think, Hestia?"
"Haruhime is right, you look very handsome like this. But... I think it's a little too long. I can trim it."
"Great, get some scissors so you can cut it."
"Are you going out?"
"I need to take care of something."
Right after saying that, I teleported to my room. Feeling nervous, I turned on my computer. As soon as I opened the browser, the YouTube homepage appeared. I had left the website open.
There was a lot of new content from YouTubers I followed.
'But honestly, I'm not interested in any of this anymore.'
I then closed YouTube and opened my emails. As soon as I opened my main email account, there were many emails about subscription cancellations and even an email informing me that my bank account had been closed.
Everything of mine had been "erased."
I then decided to search my name on Google.
"Really..." I managed to find an online memorial created for me. When I saw who had created it, it was my sister. A sister I barely talked to. Alana Taylor, my sister.
I finally got to see a picture of her after such a long time.
Smiling bitterly, I felt a pain in my chest.
I opened my sister's Instagram and found some posts about me. She made it clear how much she cared about me, even though we weren't close. But after those posts, her life continued normally...
She posted many pictures of herself traveling and having fun.
"I'm glad she's doing well."
I was even able to see some pictures of my mother. My mother doesn't have Instagram, so I couldn't "stalk" her. However, I started looking through the Instagram accounts of many people in my family to see how they were doing.
In the end, life went on normally for all of them. They were living their lives normally, and many of them were doing very well at the moment.
I'd be an idiot if I ruined their lives by contacting them and telling them that I'm in a different world.
Simply put, it's better not to do that.
My life is here now.
"I'm sad... But at the same time, I'm relieved that everyone is doing well."
I closed the browser, and then I opened a text file and started typing.
I felt like starting a new story.
####
Time passed, and before I realized it, I had already finished the first volume of my new story. It wasn't a story from my old world, but rather an original story of my own. Another original story.
I feel confident enough to write something like this.
The story won't be very long. It's a romance story that also focuses on family relationships. A story with lots of drama and twists. And this new story of mine takes place in the world of DanMachi.
But none of the characters are adventurers or anything like that. Instead, they are villagers from an isolated village I created myself.
There is a little action, but it isn't the focus.
'This is definitely a story that will be very popular among the women of this world.'
So, I spent some points to buy some ink and printed out the entire first volume so I could show it to Elma. I want to know her opinion before I start publishing it.
But I'm sure she'll like it a lot.
After printing the entire first volume, I teleported to the mansion. As soon as I arrived in my room, I found Mikoto writing something on my laptop.
She noticed me and asked, "Where were you?"
"I was using the computer to write."
"You started writing again!?"
"Yes, I started a new story. Want to take a look?"
"Of course!" Mikoto said, her eyes shining.
I handed her the first volume, and shortly afterward she began reading it. However, before I went to the bathroom, Mikoto seemed to remember something important and said, "Oh, I forgot to tell you, but a letter arrived for you."
"A letter? From whom?"
"I don't know. There's no name on it. But it even looks like a love letter."
"Where's the letter?"
"It's with Hestia."
"Alright, thank you." I went to the bathroom.
As soon as I started washing myself, I thought, 'A letter... I wonder who sent it?'
