Overlord: The Multiverse

Chapter 5: Chapter 5: Earth 2126



A grin spreads across my face, a mix of excitement and disbelief making me feel like a kid in a candy store. "Well, why didn't you say so sooner?" I blurt out, unable to contain my enthusiasm. "Let's go on a quest to gather waifus like they're rare Pokémon!"

"Before that, tell me which world you'd like to start from," Death asks, her tone as calm as a cucumber in a salad bowl.

I pause for a moment, considering the endless possibilities. "Hmm, tough choice," I mull over, tapping my chin like a cartoon character deep in thought. "But if I had to pick just one to start with..."

Suddenly, it hits me like a bolt of lightning. "Then I want to go to the Overload universe, then like canon I transfer to New World." I suggest eagerly, a grin spreading across my face.

Death's eyebrows raise in surprise at my suggestion, but she quickly recovers with a nod of approval. "Ah, an interesting choice," she comments, her tone carrying a hint of intrigue. "The world of 'Overlord' certainly offers its fair share of unique characters and challenges."

I nod enthusiastically, excitement bubbling up within me like a cauldron of potion in a fantasy RPG. "Exactly!" I exclaim, unable to contain my enthusiasm. "Plus, who wouldn't want to rub elbows with some powerful sorcerers, fearsome dragons, and maybe even a few adorable succubus and Vampire girls?"

Death chuckles softly, her eyes twinkling with amusement. "You've got quite the imagination," she remarks, her smile widening. "But you're right, the world of 'Overlord' is filled with endless possibilities, and with you leveling up through an RPG system. After the game become reality not only you become stronger, you will also get loyal subordinates, and there's practically no danger to your life.

"Now that you have choosen your primary world, what type of background you need in that world—Earth 2126."

"As I am going to play Yggdrasil, I need a lot of money, so make me rich." I said.

Death nods in understanding. "Alright, then what's your next wish."

"Make me an orphan."

Death raises an eyebrow at my request, her expression thoughtful. "An orphan with a lot of money," she muses, considering the implications of such a combination.

I nod eagerly, my excitement growing at the prospect of being both wealthy and independent. "Exactly!" I exclaim, unable to contain my enthusiasm. "As an orphan, I'll have the freedom to pursue my own path and make my own decisions, while my wealth will provide me with the means to achieve my goals and live a comfortable life."

"Consider it done," Death says with a nod, her smile resembling that of a mischievous cat who just found a mouse.

"And from my side, I will give you a system," she continues, her eyes gleaming with a newfound intensity. "A system that will allow you to traverse the multiverse with ease."

"And Keep in mind that your system will be at its minimum in Earth 2126 and only fully activate after you arrive in the new world," Death adds with a knowing smile, her eyes sparkling with mischief.

I nod, absorbing her words with a mix of anticipation and curiosity. "Got it,"

Death's smile widens, as if she knows the adventures that lie ahead. "So, are you ready to embark on this grand adventure?" she asks, her voice tinged with excitement.

I grin, feeling a surge of adrenaline coursing through my veins. "Absolutely!" I exclaim, eager to dive headfirst into the unknown. "Let's fire up that system and start exploring the multiverse! Who knows what wonders—and wacky adventures—we'll encounter along the way!"

Year 2126, Japan

In the year 2126, our once-beloved Earth had become a dumpster fire of epic proportions. Picture this: instead of serene landscapes, we had corporate concrete jungles and industrial wastelands.

The sky? More like a perpetual smoke screen, with the sun popping in like it's playing hide-and-seek. Our oceans? Let's just say they went from vibrant blue to toxic green, a real-life horror show.

And as for that beautiful blue sky everyone used to wax poetic about? Yeah, good luck finding it under the thick blanket of toxic fog.

But hey, who needs fresh air and clear skies when you've got virtual reality, right? Oh, the joys of living in a world where the only nature you see is on a screen or in a photo album. Talk about dystopian chic!

So, welcome to the year 2126, where the air is so polluted, even the birds have gas masks, and the only green you'll find is in your algae-infested bathtub. Cheers to progress!

It's been 4 month since I came to this world, and let me tell you, it's been a wild ride. From navigating the treacherous corporate landscape to dodging toxic rain showers, every day is an adventure.

But hey, at least I've got my trusty gas mask, a killer sense of dark humor and Lady Death to keep me sane in this post-apocalyptic playground. Who needs paradise when you've got a front-row seat to the end of the world, am I right?

But the good news is that I was rich, not super duper rich but rich enough to make next 13 years of my life a heaven.

And because I was rich, not super duper rich but rich enough to make the next 13 years of my life a heaven, I was able to get some shares of YGGDRASILL. Don't ask me how; let's just say money talks, even in the darkest of times.

And today is the day when YGGDRASILL releases its first beta test, and to my delight, I am one of its testers.

Naturally, as someone who invested in the company, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to be among the first to experience the virtual world.

Oh, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Alexander but please call me Alex.
