Jay: The planet is very big. How will I find the main protagonist? And what is the problem with this world? It feels like the air is flowing with some synth music in my ears!

Irsha: We have to explore the city, and the scent of his aura will guide us to him! Just like our queen told us!

Jay summoned his book, used its power, and tried to navigate the path. He made a compass with its power. So they started to walk and explore the city!

They saw many buildings with unique shapes and futuristic designs, all with their own personal neon lights.

The road looked very futuristic too, with white stripes and neon-colored sidelines, and the whole road was neon blue!

The people around looked the same as humans but wore very futuristic and unique clothes.

The cars were also futuristic, hovering in the air on the road and some going through the sky!

The plants and trees looked so different with some neon colors on them. The water looked the same.

Jay and Irsha were overwhelmed by all those things!

But after some time, when they got to the end of the city, they saw a big barrier that was glitching and surrounding the whole city. They didn't understand it, but then Irsha said...

Irsha: This is the result of the corruption of this world's storyline!

Jay: Oh, but how does it work, actually?

Irsha: I don't have any idea. We have to find the protagonist of this world so that we can get all the answers.

Jay: Yeah... Let's continue. The compass says that he is in the city! So let's find him!

After that, they started to follow the compass's path.

They were walking forward and got in front of a stadium. Suddenly, the compass started rotating slowly and then very fast!

They didn't understand it!

Jay: Now what the hell is wrong with this compass?

Stolen content warning: this tale belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences elsewhere.

Irsha: Maybe this is the signal that he is close, very close to us.

Jay: Is he in the stadium?

Irsha: I guess. Let's see!

Jay: Yeah!

They got into the stadium, and there were so many people!

Jay: It's a "NASCAR" stadium! I am a very big fan of this!

Irsha: Hey! You're forgetting we have to find him!

Jay: There are so many people. How are we gonna find him? And this compass, where is it pointing?

Irsha: ...The vehicles? ...YEAH, THE VEHICLES!

Jay: WHAT? ...WAIT... OH YEAH, IT IS!! IT'S POINTING TO THE LAST CAR! ... The last car is releasing some intense aura!

Suddenly, the last car started to go faster! ...Faster, FASTER!!!

The car crossed over all the other cars and got into second position... They were going so much faster, a real pace battle!

Jay: OHHH OH OH OHHH! IT'S GETTING SO INTERESTING!! LET'S GO CHAMP, YOU CAN GO FASTER, COME ON, COME ON!

Suddenly, the car started to shake and skid, going out of control!

Jay: What!... What happened?

ALL THE CROWD CHEERED UP MORE! BUT SUDDENLY THE CAR REALLY GOT OUT OF CONTROL AND *TIK* *BAAAAMM💥*

THE CAR CRASHED INTO THE SIDE WALLS AND CAUGHT FIRE VERY QUICKLY!

JAY: WHAT!

JAY SUDDENLY STARTED SHAKING, FEELING LIKE HE'S REMEMBERING SOMETHING!

The crowd got silent and started crying, seeing their favorite racer crash!

The fire brigade got there to put out the fire. The firemen saw something...!!! It was the racer; he was still alive without any damage!

All the crowd started to cheer up again, looking satisfied!

The firemen helped him get out of there!

Irsha: Oh, it's good nothing happened to him... Lord? LORD!

Jay: ...HUH..HUH? OHH...OHHH THE RACE... HOW IS HE STILL ALIVE?

Irsha: Are you okay, my lord?

Jay: Huh? Me? What's wrong with me? I am okay! Hey, I guess he is the one we are looking for!

Irsha: Oh yes! Let's go, we finally got closer to him! Let's talk with him.

All the medical emergency staff got there and took him to the stadium's health emergency room!

Jay and Irsha also followed them!

Irsha cast her invisibility spell.

The doctors checked the racer and put him to rest, then they all left the room. After they left, Jay and Irsha entered the room!

Jay: ...Are you okay there?

Racer: Yeah... (opened his eyes) ... wait, who are you? You don't seem like you're a doctor?... (He saw Irsha) Wow, who is this beautiful lady?

Irsha: Hey there, I am Irsha!

Jay: And I am Jay!

Racer: Hmm, nice to meet you! Are you my fans who wanted to see me after the accident?

Irsha: Yes, we are here to check on you but not as fans!

Jay: Don't worry, I am a beginner fan of yours! By the way, what's your name?

Racer: Oh, thank you, Jay... wait, you don't know my name?

Jay: Umm, no!

Racer: My name is "Jack Wolves." And by the way, who are you and what are these clothes you are wearing? You don't seem like you're from this world...! Wait, are you traitors from the magic world?

Jay: Oh, hello Jack! And yes, you're right, we are not from this world but we are not "traitors." We are actually here because this world needs us. We are here to help save the world from the error!

Jack: Wait, what? Are you gods? I have been trying to save this world for the last 15 years, and now you appear from nowhere and tell me you are here to save the world?

Irsha: Oh no no, you misunderstand us! We can actually help you and this world! You have to tell us what's wrong here that's causing the destruction!

Jay: And we need your help. Without your help, we can do nothing!

Jack: Wait, why me?

Jay: Because you're the main character (suddenly Irsha put her hand on Jay's mouth).

Jack: Main character?

Irsha: Ah... Jay means that you're the chosen one! We are actually from another universe, not from this universe, and the god who made all this told us that you are the one who can help us and save this world!

Jack: (shocked) So you're actually here to save this world? I can't believe it!

Jay: (thinking) Okay, now I said the same thing, but because she is telling him that now he understands. Wow, men will be men in all universes! "Hey, if you need to rest now, we will come back, okay?"

Jack: Okay, come back in the evening. I am going to take you two to the famous cafe here and then we can discuss everything, okay? By the way, are you two boyfriend and girlfriend?

Jay: Who?

Irsha: (embarrassed) Umm, ahh, n-no I-I guess, hehe!

Jack: What's your age, you two?

Jay: Oh, my age is 24!

Irsha: What, really? 24? "Ahem," my age is 90.

Jack: Wtf? 90?! But wow, a 90-year-old looks like this?

Irsha: Actually, in my world, this age is very young!

Jack: Y-young?

Jay: It's complicated, dude! You wouldn't want to destroy your mind in one day. We still have time. We will

meet again in the evening and talk, okay?

Jack: Ye-yeah, okay, I guess.

To be continued...
