Chapter 25: Uno Reverse Card ----- Jack's entire life has changed since his sister awoke from her coma, owing to the Elixir he created for her. He used to wake up every day feeling bleak and empty; his eyes never seemed alive, and he seemed to be getting paler by the day. He frequently wondered, "Why am I even doing this?" or "What's the point of this suffering?" Despite being the protagonist in a novel that was written in another universe, he was a real person here. Those who read the story might have thought he was an unstoppable monster, ravenous for power and more power, and with an inflexible will. It was designed so that he would be a great blank slate for readers to fill, to self-insert themselves into this unstoppable and “badass” person, someone who hyped them every time he did something witty and brutal, emotionlessly. Yet reality couldn’t be so far from that. The many battles Jack underwent, the many hardships, and the life-or-death situations he had to constantly go through. All of them were piling up on his shoulders like traumas that only increased his daily stress. He didn’t know if he had already gone insane. Not only had he killed so many people he couldn’t remember anymore, but he had also devoured people; he had become a cannibal due to the powers of Fenrir. Yet he always felt conflicted when he realized he felt nothing. Deep inside, he still wanted to remain with some hint of sanity for the only person he truly cared for, for the one for whom he was doing all of these insanities. In this world filled with hardships and gods that treat people like their puppets, was there any point in even continuing to live without anything to hold tightly with your hands? Something precious for you that would make you go so far as to do these horrendous things your past self would have never considered, not even in their wildest of nightmares. Deep down, Jack thought that when his sister woke up, he would have to babysit her and take care of her constantly to always protect her from danger at any moment. And that, due to being a normal person without awakening, she would remain weak and pathetic. Indeed, a side of him, perhaps the side that he only showed to his most hated enemies, thought she was going to be a nuisance. Yet in the end, she ended up becoming someone completely different. What did change? How did she become like this? His expectations of her were completely shattered. Yet he couldn’t help but secretly root for her as he showed his responsible older brother figure to her. Deep down, he began imagining her becoming the strongest hunter out there. However, that would take a lot of time before it could become a reality. “Oi brat, are you overthinking things again?” “Ah, no…” Jack sipped a bit of coffee while seeing the sun slowly ascend from the horizon. “It has been a while since I saw you this happy. Look, even your eyes are shining now." Fenrir, his companion, his savior, and his curse seemed surprised over Jack’s own change. In the original story, Jack would simply descend into even more insanity, becoming even more ruthless, even more monstrous, and even more inhumane. Yet the week he spent with her had healed his heart quite a lot. Maybe her food, which had a very magical glow to it, was also helping. “Shut up.” Sighed Jack. “In a few more days, Anna’s going to that dungeon for the first time with those newbies. I hope everything goes well. Will you go with her as a familiar?” “Hmph, am I your babysitter now or something?" Fenrir angrily said “Just say yes, you mutt,” Jack said. “FINE…” Fenrir grumpily said, “More importantly, are you going to eat those eggs?” "Fenrir, they’re raw eggs." “I am hungry! Feed me!” Jack was completely unaware of what sort of insanity his little sister was up to. . . . (Anna’s POV) Anubis flinched the moment I showed him the purple jewel in my hands.
