An orb of white light appeared, on the edge of a forest near a walled town. The light expanded and became brighter until it became blinding. Then, just as it had grown, the light began to dissipate. It revealed a young teen with silver and green hair who stood confused while looking at his surroundings. He was around 15 years old and wore a new saggy black sweater, dark blue jeans, and shiny white shoes.
“What the….These clothes were my favorite back in high school. They were ruined after Mom accidentally spilled Clorox all over them. And my Voice?…. It sounds like it used to be 10 years ago… just what the hell is going on? I..I went to bed then I suddenly woke up in a dark room with that screen saying I had been chosen as a savior and been granted the system from my novel…Then there was the bright white light and now I’m here…..”
Erix sighed and sat leaning on a nearby tree as he continued trying to understand his situation.
‘Could all this be true? If it is, I have to say it feels very rushed. I’m told I’m the world’s savior but not what I’m supposed to save the world from? In my story, the Mc was meant to use his tower defense system to stop the forces of a demon lord who crossed dimensions and wanted to invade. Since I was given the same power am I going to fight a demon lord?..... Before that, I guess that I’ll have to take a look at the system. If everything is the way that I planned then it’s going to be pretty badass… Then again, it’ll be a pain not being able to sleep in peace because If I fall asleep I’ll be sent to the system’s space. So let's see (Viewing Window)‘.
As Erix thought about the words and how much he wanted to see it, a large screen materialized out of blue light. On the screen, a view of an endless black desert showed up. Erix pinched the screen outwards to zoom into the desert revealing a small dark grey castle.
The castle was offset further back from the center of the circular pastured space about 200ft in diameter. Said space was bordered by a tall stone wall roughly 10 feet wide. A light brown dirt road connected not only the castle door to the castle gate walls, but it also reached 100 feet past the wall and into the black sand of the desert. At the end of the road, a white marble gate stood tall and alone.

‘It’s awesome to see my idea realized, everything was just like I imagined it. This means the white gate really will be the root of my worries…Hey, now that I think about it why aren’t there any enemies yet? There should also be a barrier around the dirt roads and castle walls yet they aren’t up yet….maybe the barrier wall will appear once the monsters arrive?”
In Erix’s story once the demon lord made portals into the world, a system portal would auto-appear right in front of it sucking up all the invaders and transporting them into the system’s space. Since in his story, the main character had been summoned when the demon lord had already started invading, enemies were seen from the start.
‘I wonder if I’m still going to be pulled into the space when I go to sleep. I mean it’s not like there are any enemies for me to grind gold or gems. I should have the initial 300,000 gold coins so I could start setting up my defense. But that’ll have to wait since I’m in a place that isn’t all that safe. Thankfully whoever sent me here dropped me near a town. Now that I think about it, could this world be the one I had planned on writing?... Nah, I doubt it, other than some basic rules and settings I didn’t plan much.’
Erix took a deep breath and began walking towards the town's wooden walls. Sensing that he was no longer interested in the screen the viewing window disintegrated.
“I’m sure that the townspeople will find me suspicious, I mean the clothes I have are modern ones. Not to mention that I’m not carrying any equipment with me, who knows how far the nearest town is from here….Well, we’ll figure things out as we go.”
As he reached the town’s entrance he was stopped by two men wearing a matching black uniform with very light armor.
The pair pushed themselves from the wall that they had been leaning on and stood straight and tall.
Erix waved at them he was about to say hi when one of the guards began to speak.
“????? ????? ???? ????? ???”
He froze and looked at the youngest of the pair who had spoken. Seeing him not respond the man spoke once more but yet again all he heard was a bunch of gibberish.
‘God, Goddess, Demon, Creator, or whoever the heck brought me here…..Why would you ever send your supposed savior without first granting him the ability to understand the world’s language?!!!!!!!!!’
