Standing before me is the mirror in my bathroom. What reflects on the mirror is a fat man with black hair, black eyes, and a chubby face. My looks are nothing special and pretty much all the fat is all I see on my body.

Why am I staring at my body you ask? Well, it is not that I became narcissistic and I don't really care about my appearance that much. I believe in the saying 'The beauty comes from within'. So yeah, no I am not staring at it because I am narcissistic.

What I am staring at is the words that hover above my head.

[<The Gamer> Lvl1 Alex Bourne]

It was pretty weird when I wake up this morning. I wake up with a 2d blue panel right in front of my eyes that says.

[Due to sleeping on a bed, your HP and MP are refreshed.]

At that time, I scoff it off as just my imagination.

'I really should sleep properly. I have been having hallucinations since yesterday', I thought to myself at that time as I get up from that bed.

And that's how I got in this situation. I keep on rubbing my eyes and stare at the text that hovers at my head.

Yup, I am definitely getting crazy right now. Now what, there is no way I am getting 'The Gamer' ability right? Even though I am an otaku in nature, I don't truly believe in fantasy powers and whatnot.

As I contemplated what is going on, I wash my face and hands to start my day. I continue to ignore the text that hovers above my head and walk to my kitchen to cook food.

Finding an intelligent species.... found. Species name <Alex Bourne>. Initiate greeting to host.

Hello host, I am 'The System' and I am the one who manages your planet to suit your needs. You can call me System or Sys for short.} said the robotic girlish voice.

As I continuing cooking at the kitchen, I suddenly heard a robotic girlish voice. I was startled at the sound that I accidentally hit my right pinky toes to the chair.

"Ouch, Argh what the hell was that!!?" as I continue hopping with my left leg while holding right foot to reduce the pain.

{Hello, Host, I am 'The System' and I am the one who manages your planet to suit your needs. Just call me Sys for short.}, said 'The System' as it repeats its answer to her host.

"Ugh, am I really hallucinating right now? I knew I shouldn't go all night to watch anime and read the manga.", I said to myself as I held my head as if feeling a headache and sitting on the chair.

{No Host, except for your fat body, you are perfectly healthy and mentally sound.}, said Sys as she unknowingly insults me. Did she just call me fat?

" What the heck are you saying punk!!? Excuse me, I am truly and perfectly healthy right now. I am not fat, I have abs and muscles in my perfect body, it is just that you cannot see it clearly.", I said to Sys as I flex my abs (flabby stomach) and muscles (fats) to Sys.

{No Host, as I said, except for your FAT body, you are perfectly healthy and mentally sound.}, said Sys as if stating an obvious truth.

" WHAT. DID. YOU. SAY!!? Ugh, whatever. You are too blind to see my perfect body anyway. So right, who are you? Why are you keeping calling me as 'Host'?", I said as I am contemplating whether I  went bonkers or not.

{As I said, I am 'The System', and I am the one who manages your planet to suit your needs}, said Sys as she stated the third time.

"Wait a minute, my planet? What planet? I am pretty sure 'Earth' is my home planet but not my 'own planet'? Are you perhaps an alien or something? ", I said as I was confused by what she said.

{To answer Host's questions, you need to go outside the house.}, said Sys as she wants to explain what happens.

*Ding*

[Quest has been created]

[Go outside the house says 'The System': Go outside the house to know what is happening in your situation.]

[Reward: 100EXP; you will know what is coming to you from 'now' on]

[Failures: more confusion on your situation]

[Duration: -]

"W-What the heck is this!!?", I said to myself startle about the 2d blue panel appearing in front of my eyes.

{That is your ability Host, 'The Gamer' ability. Now, Host, I will explain after you go out of the house}, said Sys to explain my ability.

"O-Okay," I said to Sys.

{As you can see Host, you are now in a different world.....} said Sys as she went explaining what heck is happening.

Apparently, I got isekai'd and transmigrated like those in novels and into this planet which apparently is my own planet manage by Sys. And apparently, I am to gonna stay on this planet for 10,000 years with no signs of aging. To make matters worse, I am temporarily immortal because of the title "The Loner" on my status which I will later explain.

"So basically I transmigrated in another world with no humans and animals? Just trees and plants for the entire 10,000 years?" I said to Sys as I blink my eyes very fast.

{Yes Host.} said Sys.

"So what now, what I am gonna do!!? Who send me here in the first place!!? I am going to beat the sh*t out of him/her" I said to Sys as I clench my fist and as I remember as I reminded of what I left behind on Earth.

{Host can do anything you want in this world until that time comes, also to your second question it is classified.} said Sys.

"Classified my ass, send me back right now!!? What will happen to the anime and manga that I missed watching and reading? What about video games that I am so eagerly waiting for. Does that mean I can't watch anime; read manga; play video games; and connect to the internet of my world?" as I let my feelings out as that was I left back on Earth until a calm effect took me. Maybe it is the gamer's mind in work here?

{No Host, you can still do those things. It is just that this time you cannot contact people on social media. If you are still not satisfied Host, I am gonna cut your connection of anime, manga, internet, and video games to your world.}, said Sys threatening me out of wits.

"NOOO SYSTEM!!? Forgive this sinful me, I am sorry for what I have done to you.", I said to Sys as I do a dogeza in front of her.

{I am just 'joking' Host, no need to go that far.} said Sys as she emphasizes the word 'joking' as if saying it is not a joke.

"A-Are you sure? Your voice is starting to become ominous.", I said as I am becoming more nervous. Imagine being stuck here on this planet for 10,000 years of solitude being alone. Even though I am a NEET and a loner, I am still communicating with people albeit not face - face but through online. I might just kill myself if I don't even have that even though I am temporarily unkillable right now.

{Yes Host, I am sure} said Sys as if she felt what I was thinking and stop joking around.

A few hours later, we introduce ourselves to each other once again. As we kept talking about each other, I on the other hand gather information about things concerning my food, entertainment, and shelter.

After finishing our talk, I was doing just my normal routine like reading manga and watching anime in the house as the night came fast. Thinking deeply about our talk, not focusing on what I am doing.

As I listen to her explanation that time, I both sigh in relief and nervous about myself. Will I keep on having my sanity intact after 10,000 years. Even though I have 'The Gamer' ability as a foolproof to not get insane, it is better to be careful about myself from now on this planet.

I contemplated those things in my mind as I ready myself to sleep

"Goodnight Sys.", I said as I cover myself in my blanket

{Goodnight Host} said Sys as all the lights in my room turn off by Sys.
