Bored Gamer in Other Worlds

'This is no good. Why don't I worry about this after a few thousand years? Or even some hundred thousand years in the future.

The Almighty knows that I have got the time to spare in dealing with this problem. One hundred fucking trillion years at that!' Clark tried to convince himself but knew the futility of the act.

It would be mere delusion for him to cage his curiosity once it has already been opened in full beforehand.

'Let me try something else instead.' Our bored gamer decided and called for the Freaky Lady's attention once more.

'Hey, Lady. I have a counter offer to give. Are you perhaps interested in listening?' He started his plan and knew that this was akin to a shot to the moon.

But knowing his hesitation in betraying Nancy who has given him so much power and safety since he got in this xianxia world, this alternative was possibly doable than its predecessor.

'Say what's on your mind, child. I am here.' The Freaky Lady replied after a beat.

'I can't promise to give you the Elder God's Soul Fragment inside me but I can give you something else in exchange.

Since i have hatred with one particular fucking Elder God, the one who sent me here against my will.

As my way of expressing gratitude for his good deeds, I shall kill him and give his soul unto you.'

Clark paused at this point and knew that the next thing he was going to say was pretty much probable than the last.

'Or die trying.' Our bored gamer finished his words and there was nothing but silence at the end. The stillness persisted for some moments.

'Did I fail?' Clark could not help but smile at himself. He had given it his best try and it was only too sad that it appeared that he could only flop after all.

'You are dreaming, child. To take a Divine's life is nigh impossible. At least, it is for you. But i shall give you a chance then. Let's see how well you can endure pain.'

The Freaky Lady said one last time and then disappeared totally from our bored gamer's subconscious.

'Is that it?' Clark wondered and afterwards, his mind crumbled into pieces.

Although he appeared calm on the outside but this immovable stance belied the real condition that assailed our good gamer at the moment.

Even Nancy had no idea what was happening.

'FUCK ME! STOP!' Our bored gamer cried inside as he felt so much pain all over his body.

He was like being cut in shreds and the sadistic bastard who was holding the knife was slowly taking his time in doing so.

Alas, this invisible torturer did not stop there but continued to diverse unto better innovative things in his pocket of torment.

Our bored gamer was burned alive, flayed in bald shame, maimed, decapitated, starved to death, drowned in a bottomless sea, and many more myriad ways of dying.

The experience was truly horrendous for one soul to take. From cohesive thoughts and screams, Clark ended up throwing nothing but gibberish around him.

In the end, several billion years of suffering seemed to occur in just a fraction of a second.

"More!" Clark finally uttered the first audible word he had in countless eons. He was already numb to pain and was instead taking in pleasure from the ordeal.

"Hmmm... Is this you talking to yourself once more, Foul Creature? Amusing." Lin Che ridiculed when she heard our bored gamer speak from his bed.

"So i'm back. Typical." Clark smiled and understood what The Freaky Lady had done to him.

From his psyche, he could see well enough a small portion of himself that was separated from the whole.

It gave him a similar feeling when he would summon his Blood Twin because he was absolutely connected with this fragment in all aspects.

As it was, Clark felt that he had two minds that were simultaneously thinking for him.

'This must be how Soul Fragments are made. At least, this was how I made mine. Tsk. Tsk. I paid so much price to get this. So what's next?'

Clark asked and he knew that the Freaky Lady was listening in to his thoughts as usual.

'Now I will give you a map to follow.' The same lady answered and our bored gamer received some pathways in the void. It looked like a maze to be exact.

'Here goes nothing.' Clark said and did just as he was instructed. He commanded his Soul Fragment to take the path and he did not even question where it led to.

Our bored gamer swam in the void for a full time minutes and upon the next breath that ensued, he finally arrived at his destination.

Although there were countless realms in this universe but no one had yet to find the barriers between Creation.

In this case, the Elder Gods in Clark's world could create universes at a whim but they were absolutely alienated from all other beings outside their purview.

But in truth, this thin line of separation existed and perhaps the Freaky Lady was the most indelible proof that Supreme Existences outside of this current dimension were thriving elsewhere somewhere beyond the reach of everybody else's.

"What happens now?" Clark asked in the voice and form of his Soul Fragment. He was just a tiny bit of light in the vast darkness of the cosmos as he stopped in place for further directions.

On his way towards here, he had already passed by different worlds, realms and civilizations of supernatural characters and it was indeed amazing to witness the lives of many in this all embracing space.

"Take three steps forward and you shall see the light." The Freaky Lady's voice sounded in the ears of our bored gamer and that was what he exactly did one breath later.

Alas, what he encountered in the third step was beyond what he could have ever imagined.

Clark's Soul Fragment transported into a whole new dimension, complete with their corresponding power systems and cultivation levels.

Unfortunately, he only arrived there for just one single second before a blinding flash of light scattered him into pitiful ashes in the wind.

Our poor protagonist could not even shout nor say both hello and goodbye to the fresh world in his eyes. He just turned instantly into nothing.

Clark's Soul Fragment was gone as simply as that!

'Was that perhaps part of the plan, my dear Freaky Lady? I have indeed seen the light! Very much so in fact!' Clark was furious after he lost his connection with his Soul Fragment.

He did not truly expect for this result to happen at all. Our good gamer even forgot his manners and uttered the name that he had been using all along to refer to the Lady in his mind.

'That was merely the beginning, child. You can do better than that the next time you try again. Continue.' The Freaky Lady said in her normal cold voice.

'No more! I don't need to do that over and experience the same fucking th... AHHHHHHHHH!'

Clark could only shout once more within as he was put to another set of billions of endless torture.

One breath in real time passed and we had our bored gamer cursing the annoying lady in the dark.

"Well, that was sweet." Clark muttered in the confines of his room.

He tried to look deep inside him and realized that another Soul Fragment had taken shape from out of the blue which was very much the same to the last one.

His previous Soul Fragment that was mercilessly pulverized by a tribulation lightning.

'If you think that i will go into that same end, you are badly mistaken you fucking Freaky Lady!'

Our avid gamer finally released his pent up hatred unto the one who had made him suffer so much for untold passages of time.

At this moment, he has absolutely torn any facade of civility towards this unknown woman's voice in his head and he was very much happy to do so indeed.

'You are the same as that wretched Elder God! It seems that all you and your kind ever know how to do is to use people and let them suffer for their stupidity.'

Clark raged on deep inside him but he did not let his feelings show at all on the outside. Perhaps one of the benefits of this trial was our protagonist having a stronger dao heart from before.

'So this is how shallow your resolve really is. You give up after only the first taste of defeat. You are pathetic, child!' The Freaky Lady mocked.

'That may be so but i don't believe that that quest is possible even for me to accomplish.

But just out of curiosity, how many tries did it take you before you were successful in crossing into this world?'

Clark asked and realized well enough the reason why this Freaky Lady had fallen into this dire state.

He believed that this Lady was also a curious cat who loved to seek for adventures no matter where it took her. As a result, she has only gotten this lamentable fate as her prize.

'Just once.' The Freaky Lady replied.

'Well good for you, Freaky Lady but I don't plan to take the same route as you did. Now begone and thank you for nothing!'

Clark said his last piece before he completely ignored the Freaky Lady in his mind. He even wants to erase any memories he had of this troublesome woman.

It was easy to deduce that this Freaky Lady may have wanted him to start anew in her world, wherever dimension it was, so that he could rise in power and come back again in here to kill that fucking Elder God.

But the only downside with that was how utterly dangerous the trip was.

'Even this Freaky Lady who I assume was of Elder God caliber could only hide in this pitiful state, I doubt that I could come back safely and in one piece even if I attain the same peak stage cultivation in that dimension.'

Our bored gamer rubbed his chin as he considered all the facts that he got.

'Maybe i could use this information to my advantage. For something good perhaps. Hmmm... A bait? Let's see. But before that, I need to sleep an eternity first.'

Clark ended his thoughts right here and did exactly as he had declared.

Our bored gamer slept for five days straight and he was lucky that Lin Che had only stood there to look at him in wonder.

Should she decide to move otherwise and slaughter our good gamer right then and there then she would have absolutely fulfilled her quest for sure.

Luckily enough, Primal Warden Lin Che was too good or too naive to attack a slumbering man in her midst. But that did not mean at all that she hasn't tried.

"Are you awake, Foul Creature?" Lin Che called. A few breaths passed and yet no one answered her summons. And that was when she moved into action.
