Chapter 2: World hoopla and childhood friends
Chapter 2's
✓World furore and childhood friends
Immediately after that a commotion that was as if heaven and earth had flipped over spread throughout the world.
After all, the gods have appeared.
For countries that uphold religion, enough impact overturn common sense itself.
The Internet, TV, newspapers, and almost all news media talk about 'God'.
'What the fuck is that?' 'Is it really a god?' 'First of all, what is a god?'
It was a discussion that had no answer at the moment, but it was certain that this was the biggest 'incident' of the century. We are talking about Gods appearing on Displays around the world - apparently not appearing on the Display being used - at the same time.
It was morning in Japan when it happened, but there seemed to be places where Gods appeared late at night or early in the morning due to the time difference.
Countries and religious organizations give their own statements about Gods.
The only thing they have in common is that all religions and all countries do not recognize it as a true God.
He has powers like Dewa—hal that's for sure. Even so, using this as an excuse to acknowledge him as a God turned out to destroy religious understanding from its roots.
One religion says it's the devil, and one country claims it's international cyber terrorism.
In one country, there was even a tragic incident where a group of people had killed a 'Signal' boy who declared that he had been seduced by the devil. They say things like 'Tanda' disappear once they die', and 'Tanda' is passed on to the person who killed them'; news that doesn't have any credibility ...
Most people easily accepted it as a God, and their interest mostly turned to parallel worlds.
43 Elected from Japan.
It seems on the high side when considering the population, but I can't say it.
The problem for me is that my childhood friend Nanami has been chosen.
“Uuuuh... This is the worst... The worst... Can I get away from this..?” (Nanami)
"I don't know, but according to the information we have right now, that doesn't seem possible." (Mari)
It had been half a day since then, however, Nanami was still crying on her bed.
Nanami was the gentle and calm type, so it was rather surprising that she already had a life plan, she said, but what is certain is that he has now been cut off from all things like university and work - even if there is an opportunity to go to school or get a job in that other world.
The gods have been uploading pieces of information ever since.
But, frankly, there was currently no information that would calm him down.
There wasn't much time left for Nanami.
He was only given half a year to prepare until he was transferred.
It is unlikely that the mass media and countries will leave the 'Chosen One' alone in that half-year span.
When Nanami went to school, all the students gathered to witness this 'Smarked.
There were only 43 Japanese who had 'Tags', so naturally they would find it interesting, but it was a situation where it was almost impossible to have classes.
Curious spectators would come even from outside the school as well, and the mass media would wait in front of the school gates. It didn't even take 3 days for the principal to tell Nanami to be on standby at her house which was another way to tell her to stay away.
I could only see my childhood friend crying without being able to do anything about it.
The most I could do was gather as much information as possible so that even when he went to that other world, he could still stay there.
◇ ◆◆◆ ◇.
The days passed along with the same voice.
My life has not changed much, but Nanami's life has changed drastically due to being chosen to go to a parallel world.
As his face had been shown now, more and more spectators were coming to the school. Nanami technically dropped out of school, so she didn't come to school.
A special program is created by collecting 43 Chosen, and Nanami appears in her usual school uniform on tv.
Her attendance at school was as thin as mine, and if I had to put her on one side, I would say she was on the intimidated side, she said, but right now he was really the favorite kid of the era.
Due to the information of the parallel world being slowly revealed by the Gods, the gears of the world were spinning faster.
I will take down the information and explain it to Nanami.
From Japan, they will be given high-specification body armor developed in America.
There should be no weapons in isekai, so it is resistant to swords, impact, fire, and electricity; products designed for fantasy worlds. It seems that this is the kind of product that would easily reach over 10,000,000 yen if you bought it normally.
However, God has given a firm command that the goods they carry should not be contrary to the wishes of the person himself, so do not be forced. They are technically free to choose. It seems Nanami is confused about what to bring.
“Hai-chan, about what to bring, I guess I'll miss home, so I thought photos were a good idea.” (Nanami)
Nanami said this and pulled out an album.
An album filled with memories he chose himself.
“No, definitely it would be better to use body armor. No one knows what's gonna be there, you know? There is no guarantee that it will be a peaceful world like Japan.” (Mari)
“Eeh... But the thing is not funny.. It looks stuffy too..” (Nanami).
“To be honest I want you to carry the right weapon. Just be patient.” (Mari)
“Eeh, but won't it stand out?” (Nanami)
"Isn't it okay to hide it in a robe?" (Mari)
Right now the only option is body armor.
It's like being able to carry armor that can make you go straight against the last boss. If I choose, I will choose it.
Nanami made a slightly sad face, but in the end, maybe because of the country, her parents, and outside advice, she chose body armor.
His desire to carry a photo was the same as his, but it had been decided that he would be sent to a different world. Even if Nanami doesn't want to go to another world, even if from the bottom of my heart I hope someone else replaces her…
There's no way out.
Then, I want him to make a choice that has the highest probability of survival. I feel sorry for Nanami, but she has been chosen by the Gods. There is no way to stop the transfer.
To be honest here, I even want to insult the Gods that they should choose a more suitable person.
But in the eyes of the Gods, you could say choosing a 'unsuited' person like Nanami would be even funnier. It is an evil plan to broadcast the humans who are about to go to that world.
I doubt there is no such intention in the game when they choose which one to transfer.
Anyway, it's been resolved.
He might not like it, it might be unexpected, even so, he had no choice but to prepare himself beforehand.
Thanks to my two language-savvy sisters, we also managed to gather information from abroad.
How to say it, it was just like their personality was shown on the item they were carrying. Contrary to all Japanese who choose Body armor, in other countries (even America) the items they carry vary greatly. Beyond a doubt many people carry musical instruments, most likely because of their expectations that music will cope with communication.
I was quite worried about Nanami being thrown into a parallel world, but I also felt a little jealous.
As for Nanami herself, she cursed while crying at first, but it seemed like she had received it in her heart as time went on, she had somewhat become more positive about going to a parallel world.
Even so, unlike him he was proactive like the other Chosen ones. It seems like this side resonates well in tv and magazine interviews, on social media, she has been cemented as a beloved character despite being ridiculed as well.
On the official website maintained by the Gods, exclusive bulletin boards and chat rooms for each of the selected were created, and therefore translated to all languages, traffic flooded the entire world, he said, and they all write whatever they like.
I myself checked Nanami's page out of curiosity, but Nanami's personal information had been fully revealed, and it was content that I couldn't bear to see anymore.
He's already lost any privacy, and I'm disgusted to see how they treat him like a panda on display, but there's already no method to stop this progression.
The God broadcast is done once every week.
Parallel worlds are being launched steadily.
'Benefits' for the chosen ones that continue to be clarified.
The special official website that God had prepared every day was accessed by people from all over the world without end, and managed to get the world rank 1 website in the blink of an eye.
Although there was still 1 month before the people were moved, a vote on popularity was being conducted, and number 1 was a French girl. Nanami also did a good fight and got 79. He is ranked 8th among the Japanese. The person himself was shocked and humbled himself like a madman, but he was already a world celebrity.
I feel a bit proud as his childhood friend.
So, those tense days passed and…
The day finally came.
