  Chapter 1: Great Reset.

  The end of the world… Have you ever thought about it? Well, I haven’t. Not even once… Why am I bringing this up? I’ll get to that in a sed, hold your horses!

  Anyway, my name is Celia. I might be getting ahead of myself but, before I died, I was a 32 year old teacher. Yeah, I died, and so did a lot of other people. Just give me a few more minutes, I am in the process of dying…

  Or have I already died?… Even if I did, I at least narrate my st thoughts. So, I was a teacher, at a very high css college. No. I never had a retionship with anyone.

  If I think back to it, I was always a lesbian. But that wasn’t why I never dated anyone. I just never felt like dating. Ah, what am I even talking about now?…

  Right… so, before the year of 2028 could e to a close, the world ended… And it ended with a *bang!* as well. It was just a normal day like always. I was just helping out a student with some of their assigs. That was when the world shook.

  I do wish that the world would have ended just then. Like, if it just exploded for some reason. But, no. Beings from other worlds hopped into ours. Seemingly, they were God’s, Goddesses, and demons. As to why they came to this world, no one knows.

  The death of this world wasn’t quick at all. Though I say that, I do not actually know if it ended pletely. It ocalypse sure, but that doesn’t mean that the world couldn’t e back from the brink.

  As for how I died, after those beings showed up, the worse sides of humanity reared their ugly heads. For ten years, it was a daily struggle for food and water.

  So? What grandiose way did I die? Did I get killed by some asshole just looking to steal some food and water from me? Oh, what about one of those beings getting angry at me? No, none of that. At least, not directly…

  I ended up doing something that you wouldn’t ever expect a college teacher to be able to do, I turhe college that I worked at, into a fort. In only two years, it became one of the st bastions of hope for Japan. Ah, I fot to mention that I lived in Japan… Oops?

  The reason why isn’t important, I was born in America, but I moved to Japan, sihey treat and pay their teachers far better than my home try.

  Ah, right, my fort. So, I ran that pce like a fine oiled mae. There were already det sized farms on campus, and there were pretty well made workshops as well. These facilities were what made my pce st so damn long.

  Those higher beings usually ignored us pletely, so we only had to worry about our fellow humans most of the time. Though, in the past few years, creatures straight out of a fantasy game started showing up. Mostly harmless ones, like slimes.

  So… what happened, and why did I end up dying? Was it betrayal from my trusted allies? Was it from a raid? Enough beating around the bush, I died from a Goddess going on a rampage…

  None of our ons could hope to do any damage to her at all. Nor our knives, or firearms that we made. I still have no idea why that asshole of a Goddess showed up, and decided to ruin this pce that I worked so hard to create...

  Ah, I open my eyes, so I guess that I am not dead just yet. Which really sucks… sidering how much pain that I am in at the moment…

  Looking around, I could see the destru of a det portion of my life’s work… Bodies and debris were strewn about the pce, like a fucked up kids party…

  As for me, oh God… I am missing my left arm, and two of my legs. Yeah, good idea me! Attack the Goddess head on! That would surely end well… Well, it surely did NOT end well for me. I think that all I achieved in that assault, was to piss her off further…

  There is no way for me to make it out of this mess, so I guess I should just ruminate on this euation. After five years sihose beings showed up, the world retty messed up, to say the least.

  About a year ago, we lost all unication with the other remainilements across the world. Despite what happehe i was still usable. As for what happeo the others, I guess that I will never find out…

  Maybe it was that Goddess that destroyed them? It’s hard to say. Thinking about her, it was a Goddess who is known around Japan, so it would have been weird for her to fuck up a different try.

  Man… that is a LOT of blood ing out of me… Hm… if only my mind wasn’t being useless due to the blood loss, I could perhaps figure out how muy blood is on the floor now…

  Even with a muddled mind, I think that I maybe have just a few more minutes before I finally die. Even though the world was over, people would still make things. It fug sucks that I will never be able to finish that Yuri hat I started reading a while back…

  Games are pretty hard to make, so our only real source of eaihese days, were written media. Hey, did you know? If someone flips enough switches, everything stored oer easily be erased. Coht?

  No. Not cool at all… We did mao get the i back up and running, but most of the data was lost. The backup ste servers that tons of panies owned, had some data left on them. But it was mostly useless data, like corporate records and the like.

  Either no data hoarder of eai survived, or they just didn’t care to let people have access to their data, I don’t really know. There was SOME useful data that was saved, such as survival guides, oddly.

  So, yeah. Everyone had to start from scratch. It took two years before a social media site was able to be made. Before that, unication was very difficult.

  Well. I guess that doesn’t matter anymore. Seeing as most likely the world is over for us tiny humans… Ah, I feel it… My sciousness is slowly slipping away…

  I hought that I would die like this… Frankly, I also never khat dying could feel so peaceful… My brain most likely realizes that this is the end, and isn’t sending any pain signals throughout my body any more.

  In my st moments, I wonder if I have as? hat I think ht now, with my thoughts slowing down to a crawl…

  And just like that, I died…

  Or, shouldn’t I have died by now? There was clearly no way for me to survive that… Am I in heaven or hell? With the fact that God’s and Goddesses exist, maybe the afterlife exists as well?

  Something… is wrong. I see, but, it’s not like how you see through your eyes… I try to “look” around, and I am horrified at the realization of my new situation… Why the fuck am I now a cell!?
