AFTER AIMLESSLY WANDERING around the unfamiliar area for a good hour, you came across a very unsightly looking turtle that had nine legs.

"ew, what the fuck."

highly grossed out, you stomped on the animal/bug expecting to kill it only to watch it disappear with a poof and leave a card behind.

you picked up the card and examined the contents.

'what do i do with this?'

"hey, newbie. give me that card and everything will be fine."

a man who you've never seen before approached you with a floating book.

'what does this guy want?'

"i won't say it again. give me that card or i'll take them the hard way!" the man demanded. "you probably don't even know the value of that card, so hand it over."

"i don't give things for free, bozo." you shooed him off and attempted to walk away, only for him to start yelling at you again.

"looks like i'll have to take it by force." the man took out one of his own cards and began to chant. "thief on, atta-"

before he could finish casting his spell, you had already taken the card out of the man's hand.

"tell me how you get that book and maybe i'll spare your life and give this card back." you tossed the card in your hand, awaiting an answer.

"like hell i'll tell you! keep that card, i don't care anymore." he sneered and began to walk away. you were just about to let him off the hook when he decided to aggressively hit your shoulder with his own.

"alright, that's it."

you swerved back around, put him in a choke hold, and slammed him down against the floor.

"alright, tell me how you get the fucking book before i take your ability to make children."

you conveniently had heels on which neared dangerously close to his lower region.

"f-fine! you just have to say 'book' with the intention of materializing it and it should pop out!"

skeptical, you imagined an open book. "book." low and behold, a book with empty card slots appeared in front of you.

"huh. good to know you aren't a liar." you let go of the man as promised and watched him scurry far away from you.

taking the two cards, you placed them in the slots of the book.

'how do i make to go away?'

"maybe i just say it again? book." the book went away with a poof. "okayy let's find a town or something."

────  ◡̈₊· • .  .°

you came across a village where you learned that the world you're in is actually a game. you also learned about the "bomber" who goes around and kills people for his own gain.

'the bomber story seems awfully familiar.'

────  ◡̈₊· • .  .° ( short flashback )

poe slammed a thick book on his desk and began to give a brief summary. "in this dystopian like world, a criminal is killing off more and more people to escape this reality using their hidden power. they feign innocence and make allies before betraying them and slaughtering them all! figure out the culprit and i will reveal more top secret information of the guild."

────  ◡̈₊· • .  .° ( flashback end )

'oh yeahh that's the guy i have to find to get outta here.'

"where the hell am i gonna find this bomber dude?" you scratched your head and looked around your surroundings. to your surprise, you made eye contact with none other than shalnark.

"oh fuck." quickly snapping your head away, you began to slyly try and go unnoticed by the other two troupe members he was accompanied with.

to your dismay, all three of them bolted to you and surrounded you.

"aha, heyy? y'know, i really have to go uh feed my house so i'll just go.." giving the three a poor excuse, you bolted for the hills.

'why do i always meet the people i'm trying to avoid?!'

thankfully, they didn't bother to chase after you.

after running for awhile, you decided to stop and figure out where you were.

you reached a very rocky valley that had various creatures lurking in corners and crevices. in the need of more cards, you slid into the valley and began to kill and collect various cards.

on your little quest, you could see a man with pink hair holding blonde locks and scissors. in front of him, was a seemingly blonde little girl wearing a frilly pink dress.

'she reminds me of elise.'

you were highly impressed as you watched as she easily defeated her opponent. what you didn't expect at all was that killua and gon emerging from behind the large boulders.

────  ◡̈₊· • .  .° ( gon's pov )

"hey, killua. look over there." gon pointed towards y/n's direction.

"is that another enemy?" after being caught off guard, killua's senses were on high alert.

"but... doesn't their presence seem familiar?" gon squinted his eyes at the approaching figure.

"it's a woman. i don't think she knows how to use nen..." bisky informed her two new students.

gon, killua, and bisky all closely watched the nearing silhouette of the woman.

"wait... is that-"

"-Y/N?!" gon cut off.

────  ◡̈₊· • .  .° ( y/n's pov )

"-Y/N?!"

you watched the three break out into a sprint and run over towards you.

"oh. it is you guys." you nonchalantly replied.

"WHAT'RE YOU DOING HERE?! MORE IMPORTANTLY, HOW ARE YOU HERE?!" killua screamed.

"shut up." you ruffled killua and gon's hair.

"... you guys need a bath." you wiped off your hands on your shirt.

"stop ignoring my questions!" killua childishly stomped his foot.

"i was magically sucked into a novel by an evil organization member. there, you happy?" you crossed your arms and looked at them expectingly.

"how did you get here without nen?" gon scratched his head.

"wait... you got here without nen?!" the girl killua and gon was accompanied by grabbed your shoulders. her eyes were twinkling as she gave you a huge smile. "i'm going to teach you nen until you can't stand!"
