The Spearmaster and the Black Cat - Chapter 1
Chapter 1
The Spear Master and The Black Cat
「Eh? Here is…」
A pure white space?
Just in front of me is a luxurious white desk and black chair .
There is no guitar type controller which was just in my hands a moment ago .
However, That doesn’t matter .
I was sucked into a tear .
While I was enjoying my game, Suddenly, A tear appeared before my eyes .
A cross-shaped tear, Which tore through the apartment .
In the tear, I had been sucked into a spiral of darkness, It seemed like a vortex .
Thereupon when I realized, I had found myself in this white space .
「A dream?」
I pinch my cheek… Ouch, It’s painful, This is not a dream?
I try shouting .
「Oi! Anybody there?」
Nobody reacts to my voice .
Also looking left and right, There is only spread out white space, Only my voice echoes in vain .
Am I the only one here?! That would be too scary!
For the time being, I should investigate the desk and chair that are just in front of me .
The desk is a thick square with the pattern of a chess board .
A miniature sculpture of a man and woman stood in every corner .
The miniatures have a fine appearance, it’s elaborate like recent figures .
They presented a man with a penis and a woman with a bulging chest .
The square desk, Including the sculpture that resides on it is cold, Like marble .
Next I examined the chair, Which had an armrest that was attached with black stones .
The backrest on the chair had countless sculpted faces .
The face sculpture of an eerie expressionless person .
It could probably be a realistic sculpture in Tokyo’s Museum of Contemporary Art .
The expressionless faces began to change one by one, I was scared .
The sudden change of expressions is a horror film-like development you want to stop!
The eerie black stone chair, Which the top and bottom were made in the shape of an elegant crown, It was gothic style . Which was attractive .
The design of the black chair itself wasn’t bad .
I try touching the expressionless face sculpture .
It feels slick but hard, Is the stone surface like steel?
Parts of the skin also have subtle irregularities .
The smooth texture of the eyebrows has also been reproduced .
It has the feel of a statue of Buddha, Since it’s eyes are closed .
Now, I move my line of sight to the square desk .
I casually look under the desk .
Hmm?
「Under the desk…」
There were trekking boot like shoes stained with blood .
「Why?」
Although it has a little blood on it, If you were barefoot would you wear them? I tie up the laces and wear the shoes .
The size is a little small, But I can wear them .
I check the feel of the shoe while tapping the front toes .
「Hard!」
The white floor’s surface is sturdily built .
Nevertheless such a thing doesn’t matter .
I sharply raise my line of sight .
「It doesn’t appear to be reality, Is this a dream or near-death experience?」
Such an unpleasant thing shouldn’t be…
I felt pain from the pinch, If this was a dream I would have woken up already .
Time for a reality check, Should I try to hold my breath?
I inhale with a snort .
I collect the air in my lungs and stop breathing .
Phew… I exhale little by little .
…That was about a minute? Phew that was painful .
*Puhaaaa*, *Gegogo*
It’s difficult living here .
In this white space is there oxygen and nitrogen in the air?
In a typical novel development God should appear here…
There is no reaction however, Just a simple desk and chair .
How the hell is this a different world summoning, Is this just a plain kidnapping?
Then who? Is the existence that can do such a thing God? An advanced intelligent life form? An Intelligent life form that likes to play tricks?
From the 7 . 3 billion humans on earth… By an advanced intelligent life form… Or was I just chosen casually?
Perhaps now, I’m in a spaceship? Is my body’s dissection done?
Was it detestable, Or too unpleasant?
However, Even nursing myself with delusions is no help…
Trivial thoughts swirl around in my head .
So I take a look around the white space slowly .
Should I try taking a walk?
After walking for a while I look back .
Right in front there’s the desk and chair… I haven’t advanced .
Though I walked in the opposite direction, I haven’t advanced at all .
I expected this to some extent, What meaning does this chair have? Do I have to sit?
Accordingly, I sit down on the luxurious armchair made of blackstones .
At that instant, A little space above the desk flashed .
Oh, There was actually a reaction .
The white space flashed in an instant and the color changes .
It repeatedly pulses White, Black, Blue And grey then starting over again .
The space stopped pulsing suddenly And the eyes of the faces sculpted on the chair which I was sitting on all open their eyes simultaneously .
~Eek! Countless goggling eyes stared at me .
My spine froze, I was paralyzed in fear .
Furthermore, A change occurred in the space that was pulsing a moment ago .
The space right now split and is leaking a thin green light .
The light which leaked out became stronger and expanded the spacial tear to the left, Right, Upper And lower parts .
Before long, The green light that leaked out changed into unknown characters .
Unknown characters overflow out of it like a waterfall .
「What’s this all of a sudden?」
Moreover, It’s projected in 3D .
「AR technology? Or is it 3D?」
Finally a Japanese character appeared .
『Do you want to reincarnate into a different world?』
The three-dimensional character floated .
「Japanese… Do you want to reincarnate into a different world? So suddenly?!」
The three-dimensional character floated from above the desk downwards .
Touch to choose 『Yes』 or 『No』 .
After choosing 『Yes』 the world you will reincarnate into, Is different from the world you have spent time in .
The world is in a different universe, Different dimension and Far off galaxy, Physical laws are slightly different .
The “Gods” and “The Multidimensional Worlds” have an influence on that world .
Including the local life other than you, There are Metastasis People, “Reincarnated” people exist but they are “Variants” that wander .
The language is of an unknown system, However when you reincarnate into a human form, The mind and body are reconstructed according to the different world, So rest assured .
However, Language And characters of different races will be unknown to you .
This is not a projector, These floating characters truly exist .
「This three-dimensional character…」 I stretch out a finger and touch a floating character .
I feel nothing, My finger slips through the character, It’s strange .
However selecting yes, Reincarnating to a different world, Different space, Different dimension .
That means it confirms the Multidimensional Cosmological theory?
M theory from the Super String theory’s 11 dimensions, Or is it different?
The inflation theory in which space endlessly spreads out is possible, There is also a high possibility of the existence of the bubble universe .
The universe similar to Champagne bubbles? Or something like that . After all Tegmark’s taxonomy is also possibility .
Thinking philosophically, There is also the Fictious Existence theory .
Well, There’s no helping it even if use my wide variety of trivia and modern science…
To begin with I was drawn to phenomena such as black holes that tear through physical space, Since I was drawn into this white space .
Since a gravity wave was able to be observed for the first time, A phenomena like this might be solved someday .
However, When referring to the floating character, Thick square desk And eerie chair, rather than a dream, It’s a phenomena happening in reality .
While strongly biting my lip, I taste some pain and with a small amount of understanding say “Let’s do it” .
Still, The body reconstruction… If I choose yes, What will happen to my body?
This isn’t the kind of “I think therefore I am” story .
It indicated that my memory will be maintained, However I still feel a little uneasy .
Oh, Is my present state the same as being dead?
If that’s the case, My choices are narrow…
If no is chosen just what will happen?
Only the 『Yes』 choice is explained, When 『No』 is chosen, Do I return to my original world not being dead?
If that is so, I have nothing .
I’m unemployed, Don’t have family that will worry either, My parents died in an accident when I was small .
The Oji-Chan I’ve lived together with all this time died three years ago and now I’m alone .
After the discharge three years ago, I became a jobless NEET .
I became lazy halfway through life as the result of money, I spent every day using up my inheritance .
So, I have no regrets in this aspect, But I still have a lingering attachment to entertainment .
To be able to see Games, Movies, Trivia, Anime And manga…
I can’t read web novels, Also I must abandon things such as swimming .
Thought recently I haven’t swum, Ah if there is a river or sea, It would be alright .
No more cigarettes, Also I might not be able to eat delicious things anymore .
However there’s no helping it, Even if I’m hesitant .
I’ll remain confined in this pure white space .
I don’t know if this is a trick from God, But an unknown door has opened in right in front of me .
I have nothing, It would be too stupid not to jump into it .
I’m not an astronaut or NASA staff .
A different dimension, Different universe, Different laws of physics, I’ll be free of unemployment, With such things can I challenge an unknown world?
Still, I who is unemployed was chosen from among mankinds 7 . 3 billion, “Hehehe” Is it strange?
Also Reincarnated people and Metastasis people have been indicated .
Well, More importantly I have to choose something .
Is the answer yes or no? One way or another .
Even if I say that, I’ve already made my choice .
Normally I should be filled with anxiety, But honestly my sense expectation is bigger than my anxiousness .
My childish sense of excitement was quickly supressed .
The character “Reincarnation” is drifting in the air
This isn’t a novel or a game, I myself can choose…
Being confined in such a pure white space, I wonder if I have decent judgement, I want to challenge the unknown world, And experience it myself .
Gauguin’s question is also there, Something that’s amazing awaits .
I decided to go to the world of the unknown, Leaving I stood up on the spot And perform a deep bow .
Nobody may see, But I may never return .
I sat down on the eerie chair and stretched out an arm to the floating 『Yes』 character .
At the fingertip, A *Pochi* sound was made when it touched .
~Uwah I felt the touch on the three-dimensional 『Yes』 character
A soft unpleasant touch similar to silicon or konjac .
Apparently important characters have a sense of touch .
After pressing, The characters including Yes and No start to disappear as they fragment .
Immediately after the characters disappeared completely .
Also from above a new alphabet and characters system fall like a waterfall .
Character groups flow from top to bottom And produce strange color .
It’s somewhat like a matrix, it’s fantastic .
The wide variety of characters and symbols create a Fibonacci sequence and a geometrical model, Which takes the shape of an unknown fractal flower .
The form of the flower is steadily changing, Changing from a flower and creating a waveform topology in the shape of a donut like wave .
It changed shape one after another, What is this? Wondering I look thoughtlessly .
Now the waveform changed from a mysterious wave and had morphed into a finely waved object .
The object moved freely in the air repeating irregular movement, Like a UFO .
And in that instant it drew a streamline arc .
As soon as i thought it disappeared as a wave-like object, Bursting open in front of me was a three-dimensional shape for the “Left Hand” and “Right Hand” .
The hand shape shines, While the light alternately pulses pale green and pale blue .
(TN: They’re not hand shaped, They’re shaped FOR hands, Like a plug or something is shaped for plugging in cords)
Under the shape, The characters “Please insert both hands into this space” were floating .
Do I insert my palms into this? I’ll do it .
I literally put both hands into the three-dimensional shape .
I hear a *Gacha* sound, My hands fit in .
Both hands were stuck in at the wrists and are unable to be removed anymore .
From both hands wafted a smell of alcohol, With a slimy feeling .
In three-dimensional letters was “Character Scan”, Or so it displayed .
In that instant — The mouths of the expressionless faces which are on the black chair open simultaneously .
Things like black tentacles come out from the mouths .
Is it black vines from a plant? The black vines wrap around my neck and waist .
In the blink of an eye, My body is fixed to the black chair .
(TN: You know what happens now… Somebody get the burly men . TentacleXBondage)
I’m helpless as my arms are still stuck in the hand shaped space .
Since I can only move my head, I can only watch as the mouths release the black vines .
–Then the expressionless faces myriad of eyes open and jump out!
I send my regards to the eyeball oyaji .
The lower part of the eyeball is connected to the eye socket of the expressionless artwork on the black chair with a blood vessel like tube, It was extremely disgusting .
Nonetheless the blood vessel like tubes seemed to pulse…
Many eyeballs have begun to drift around me, Moving up, Down, Left And right .
The pupil in the center of the eye is continually reducing the dilation, As if it was a camera zooming in .
As the pupil dilated, The pupil emitted red beams of light towards my body .
It looked like the end, I put up my guard… In the end it was just imaginary fears .
There is no apparent pain, It seems to have been scanning me .
The eyeballs begin to make a machine sound *Pipipi* and began to scan up from my feet .
The red beam wrapped around my entire body .
As expected, It’s scanning me .
According to my first delusion, I wonder if i was abducted by an advanced intelligent life form?
When the red beam which was examining me is finished it disappears, A tear generates above the desk .
A pale green light leaks out, Much like a short while ago, The light becomes a group of characters like “Numbers” and “Numerical Formula”, They fall down like an avalanche And I disappear .
This is the same as a little while ago? Rather it’s slightly different? — Japanese language begins to appear .
(TN: lol more like English language ;>)

(TN: Dear lord…)
What? Unknown characters and symbols were displayed…
Finally Character Scan has been completed .
I had thought those characters had appeared 「Nuo」
I unconsciously made a strange noise .
It’s because a completely nude figure of me had been projected above the desk .
At the same time, The hand shaped object stuck on my wrists disappeared .
I had also been freed from the vine like tentacles And the eyeballs which scanned me had returned to their origin in the face .
They had returned to the face sculpture that was on the black stone chair .
More importantly “I”, Became free .
But “I” have been reproduced on the desk .
Although no one is around, I’m still embarrassed .
Even the palms which practiced guitar had been reproduced .
Along with the belly fat…
Uwah, The size is the same And the amount of hair is the same too .
(TN: [うはっ、あそこのサイズも同いだし、毛の量も同じだ。]I believe [not sure] he is talking about his you know what size/hair but I’m not sure…)
It’s too realistic .
Also the belly fat has been reproduced at a size that feels full of weight .
Uuu, In my school days I had nice muscles…
Well, It can’t be helped, Recently I hadn’t been swimming in the citizens pool .
But this is regrettable, In the case of a beautiful woman, I would watch more carefully .
It’s an unpleasantly perfect picture, To the extent where it has exceeded photography .
That person was another “Me” .
