9 World's Reaction

[: 3rd POV :]

Afterwards, he looked around at the treasures, and his heart thumped with happiness and satisfaction.

One by one, he began storing all these gold coins, diamond coins, storage chests, scrolls, and items.

To his surprise, there were hundreds of skill books.

However, most of them were grade C.

Thus, he just kept them inside his inventory.

Even though it was grade C, it still provided him with a sense of accomplishment, as this was a feat he couldn't achieve before.

Meanwhile, as Daniel continued his next objectives, the world was in chaos, and the people were filled with fear and uncertainty.

The arrival of the divine being ignited chaos, turning all nations into apprehension of terror. 

A strange silence fell over the people, and their hushed conversations were filled with unease and fear.

The sudden appearance of the mysterious entity caused widespread panic, creating a crisis that swept across the nation, leaving everyone in a state of existential dread that was hard to grasp.

Amid the chaos of various theories and speculations, passionate voices emerged, each claiming their perspective as the undeniable truth.

On one side, fervent believers saw the being as a saviour, a messenger sent by higher powers for the salvation of humanity.

On the opposing end, others vehemently labelled it as a disguised devil, a foreboding omen of impending doom concealed within an otherworldly facade.

Reality itself felt like it was trembling, and the core principles and beliefs that people had always trusted started to break apart due to the presence of a mysterious entity that was beyond human comprehension.

During this time of confusion, people were left with unanswered questions, and uncertainty took control.

The world was permanently changed by the arrival of this puzzling divine being.

It has only been three hours since Daniel's adventure, but the aftermath has had an impact on the world.

Newspaper reports, TV news, and other forums or articles exploded in all sorts of reactions.

'Was that a god?'

'No, it must be the devil.'

'If that's true, then why would it have an angelic appearance?'

'Fools like you are why you're still single. Who in the world would easily be fooled by appearance? Even an angel can be disguised as a devil.'

'You know, there's a saying of how it's impossible to be perfect like an angel, but it's easier to be a devil.'

'What...the...'

'Why are we going off-topic?'

There were countless forums on the internet raging wildly as others placed their thoughts and opinions, which drifted off to a completely different topic.

But others were much keener on the words said by the Divine Being.

'A new reality called Modern Fantasia? Isn't this just similar to virtual reality, which is becoming a hit nowadays?'

'You all really believed that? How can you trust from...I don't know...something that easily?'

'Chill, man, it's not like this is the end of the world.'

'THIS IS THE END OF THE WORLD, THE GODS HAVE BEEN ENRAGED BY HUMANS, AND THUS HAVE FOUND THEIR WAY TO OUR DEMISE.'

'Really, bro? Are the gods ending our lives by stimulating a virtual reality? That's funny.'

'It's a million times better to die in a game than to suffer the consequences of doomsday.'

'Yup, I agree.'

'Me too.'

'Me three.'

'Me four.'

'Me...

'...

'But aren't there any chances of it being...you know...a terrorist attack...?'

'How dumb can we be? Are you suggesting that? Please tell me you're being sarcastic.'

'As much as I want to believe anything other than an existence that we have yet to understand, I completely agree with you. Tell me you're being sarcastic.'

'While we're commenting here on this forum, the expertise in media has been invited immediately to debunk theories and come up with assumptions.'

'Yeah, man, I have watched some of that, and I agree it couldn't be a terrorist attack.'

'First of all, what kind of technology allows a hologram to be as huge as a skyscraper building? To add on, it's even harder to create a gigantic and realistic holograph. Our current technology isn't sufficient to operate that kind of spec. It'll cost millions if not billions.'

'Yeah, that kind of makes sense. Moreover, hacking all over communications lines all over the world is an insane feat. And for your information, there are reports of nearby individuals that commented its voice reaching lands away from its spot.'

'But that's not what scares me the most. Did you know? Its appearance causes natural disasters all around the world for a short moment. Don't believe it? Click this link to watch those clips. WW...'

'Is this a coincidence? No, it even convinced others who were sceptical about that, and now, the whole media is in turmoil.'

'Still, is it true that we can enter a new reality and be able to use powers from there to this world? Isn't that like a dream come true?'

'Yeah, I can't imagine what it's like controlling powers.'

'While that sounds good, we have yet to find out the way to enter that whole new reality.'

'But isn't this a bit dangerous? If we can utilize powers, wouldn't order and balance be broken?'

'If you think in that way, then it's true. If we have yet to consider what kind of power levels it can cause, then it's safe to assume that the powers obtained can be dangerous if guns or weapons wouldn't work against it.'

'This scares me a lot, like really a lot.'

'I can't imagine what would happen if criminals or terrorists were able to gain supernatural powers.'

'Stop, just thinking about it makes me think that our worst enemies are ourselves.'

'But doesn't this excite you? Isn't this like those novels where you can gain overpowered abilities and be surrounded by a harem?'

'Oh god, here we go again.'

'Sigh, another bunch who can only think of his dick.'

'Well, it's time to call those bonkers.'

'No horny on this section, please.'

'Those wannabe heroes are already blowing up on the internet, claiming that they were the chosen ones.'

'Oh, you saw it, dude!?'

'Yup, I couldn't hold my laughter over their confidence.'

'B-But isn't that good if we can be blessed with a harem?'

'Hey man, I get that you're excited about all this stuff, but we don't even know what kind of world we're talking about. Heck, we don't even know whether it's true or not. I suggest you not let your hopes up.'

'Hahahaha, another fool with wishful thinking.'

While the rumour of Modern Fantasia raises the dream of countless men and women, no one knows whether it's a fortunate outcome.

Whether it'll be a blessing or disastrous, it'll be up to them to find out in the future. And by then, many wouldn't claim the same words.

In an unknown place, time, and reality with countless stars and galaxies surrounded, an unknown being could be seen sleeping. Its body stretches as long as the distance between galaxies.

As it notices a certain event happening, it opens its eyes.

"So...it has begun once again...Apocalyptical..." Its voice echoed and destroyed thousands of galaxies before returning to its slumber as it once again closed its eyes.
