FIRST CHAPTER

"Shut-in NEET"

Daniel PoV.

What good things can I hope for in the future in a world that has been swallowed up by the chaotic system, various issues and the same problems that people face in our daily lives. Very noisy, very chaotic and even accompanied by toxic behaviors of people.

Sometimes I wonder how good it really is to live in this world for us to endure? Because if I base it on other people's lives, they will wake up in the morning to go in, get stressed, go home and sleep, that's usually the usual routine of some people in life. If you think they spent more than ten years of their lives studying to make life easier but in the end they ended up living a boring life.

"Hayss ..."

You can really sigh when you think you live in this kind of world. I mean it's very boring and meaningless and even if you don't want to you can't help but suffer and just go with the flow of life until you get old and out of breath.

By the way, I am Daniel Muntingbato, 25 yrs old and a NEET. In other words, I am a person who does nothing in life but have fun and seems to be just waiting to grow old until the world disappears, and I don't know when it will happen. It doesn't sound good, but maybe I'm so bored with my life here on earth.

One of my hobbies and my only "Will to Live" is watching great anime and reading Japanese manga.

That's right, when I put on the sinful rope hidden under my bed and finally die, I can no longer watch the cool anime and read the manga I follow.

I think that's reason enough to prolong my life.

If you think about it, Anime becomes my escape from my grief and my savior.

I'm an Anime fan but unlike the typical Otaku eh I'm not a die hard fan, and I'm also not the brave one who goes to conventions just to keep up as in silent fan I just enjoy fantasizing about them.

For me, it is my hobby to be an anime fanatic, and it is my only way to escape the complex reality.

When I get out of bed I go straight to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for my family to go to school and work then after my work I go back to my room.

 I'm a house boy who takes care of them then when it's ok with cooking, washing and cleaning I'll sit in front of my PC to watch and update on anime, that's how simple and easy my life is.

"Boring but comfortable"

But why did I fall into this life even though I was not like other children who were bullied to avoid socializing with people.

I don't know, I'm not the type to hate people and I actually make friends even though I'm an introvert, but I prefer to be alone and lock myself in this room with my Anime and Games maybe because I'm more comfortable alone.

I have become Anti-Social but what else can I do even though I am already here in this situation, and it is too late for me to come back. Furthermore, I don’t regret choosing to play my games rather than go with my friends to bond outside.

Not because I don't want to be with them but because I'm more comfortable alone, it's that simple.

 TSK, an excuse I force myself to understand.

I closed the windows and lights while waiting for my computer to open. Here I sat down in my soft chair and started moving my fingers on the keyboard to browse the internet.

I was looking for something fun today but while I was busy pressing the mouse I grabbed a small book that was sitting right on the desk of the Pc. A red color book with a black frame design.

"Huh?"

I was confused by the book I saw even though I don't remember owning such a book. I wondered if it was my siblings, but I immediately realized that no one enters my room, not even one of them because they know we will get into trouble except for my mother.

Because of my curiosity about that book, I immediately picked it up and temporarily stopped surfing the internet. There I read what was written on the front “Book of Life”.

At first glance, it looks like an anime stuff collection, but no matter what I think, I don't remember hearing about such a book. I was also weirded out by the title of the book, so I opened it from the middle page, so I could read the content.

When I opened the mysterious book, suddenly a strong wind hit me, causing me to close my eyes. I can't understand how there was a strong wind in my room even though the windows in my room were closed, but that doesn't matter any more maybe now as long as I want to get rid of it first.

As I felt the strong wind hitting my skin suddenly there were noises that gradually grew louder. Noises of crushing steel and the roar of buildings being destroyed.

At that moment I gradually opened my eyes and there I witnessed the frightening scene of a deluge. That's right, A ruined city in the middle of a strong storm.

At that time I was holding on to a pole so as not to be blown away by the strong wind caused by a huge whirlwind in front of me which was only about half a kilometer from where I was standing. I could do nothing but hold on and not try to leave. There.

I could see with my own eyes how the tornado had destroyed the surrounding houses.

Furthermore, I looked around and saw the ruined buildings and the lifting chunks of the side of the street as if a very strong earthquake had occurred and as if "The Big One" had hit the Philippines as they say.

At those moments I also heard explosions coming from the burning part of that city. I’m not sure if those were grenades, but it was one after the other and getting louder and louder as it lasted.

My eyes widened as I saw blood on the road from lying people covered in crumbling chunks of rock. It was the first time I had seen dead people and I didn’t know if I would vomit on their exposed flesh or feel sorry for what had happened to them.

I couldn’t understand why this was happening and if it was a dream I would have woken up.

I want to run. I wanted to scream in fear at that moment. I couldn’t stand what I was witnessing, but I couldn’t seem to move my legs to run maybe because of the fear I was feeling or maybe because I was also hesitant to leave my position because of the strong wind that was blowing at me.

In the midst of my confusion and panic, suddenly someone fell on the building next to me. It was like a meteor that destroyed almost half of the building. Instead of running, I clung to the pole. I don't know, I don't seem to be thinking properly anymore or maybe that's all I can do at these times.

In the middle of the thick smoke that was caused, something suddenly landed in front of me. It came from the sky and I don't even know how high it is but if I base it on the lift of the concrete road that his feet hit I can be sure it came from high.

My shock didn’t end there in those moments because I was really surprised when I slowly recognized the mysterious woman in front of me.

A woman with short blue hair and a white floral ribbon that serves as its headband. Her bright blue eyes shone like sapphires. She wore a black and white maid outfit while holding a chain connected to a steel circle that was filled with spikes.

A Descent of a true Goddess from the sky, extraordinary and marvelous. The surrounding movement was almost in slow motion as I watched the whole of that girl from head to toe.

I don’t know if I’ll believe what I see, but I can’t be wrong. That's right, because she's the woman I see now staring at me.

One of the Maids of the Roswell mansion Rin. I couldn’t understand how I felt as she stared into my eyes. Is it heaven or paradise?

But with the deluge taking place it is perhaps wrong to say that I am in paradise.

I just stared, and it seemed that my fear and confusion had disappeared earlier because of the storm that was going on around me at those times.

I don't know if I will believe what I see because Rin is just an Anime Character that can be watched on the internet.

"WOW" is this true? I can not believe."

I will also not hide that the woman in front of me now is the one I consider my Waifu as an Anime Fan. There is no doubt that I like him and only otaku like me can understand my feelings for a 2D character.

I also once said that I wish she was real, but I know that delusion is impossible even though they are just Anime Characters created by people for the entertainment of people like me.

"My Waifu is really different, she's an angel. No, she's a goddess."

It is madness to ask for something that you can only see in your fantasy and people will surely shun you if they hear that from you but in an unexpected turn of events the simple delusion of an Otaku like me suddenly came true. 

That’s right, the woman on the screen and poster I just see is in front of me and breathing like a normal people. She lives and exists in the world just like me.

"I can't believe what I see, he's real, my waifu is alive" I whispered to myself.

In the middle of my shock while just staring at the beautiful face of my waifu she suddenly spoke as if apologizing to me.

"I'm sorry Daniel and I hope you understand what I'm going to do to you, sorry." Rem said.

I was shocked and confused by her apologies but what was that for? I was even more surprised when I realized that she knew my name, my heartbeat really increased when I heard his voice while calling my name.

It was not clear to me what she was saying, but I was shocked when she pointed at me at the same time saying that I had to die at this time.

"I'm sorry, but I have to kill you to end all this" She said seriously.

"Huh?"
