THE FOOL - Chapter 16: Yes I Exist

Shinji found himself in the world of Naruto, facing the Tailed Beast Ball of the Nine-Tailed Fox.“Did I reincarnate just to die immediately?!” Shinji thought.“...”[Ding! Multiverse Role-Playing System, able to randomly draw characters/spirits/pets/trash witches from the multiverse...][Option 1: Genshin Impact World - Geo Archon - Rex Lapis - Zhongli][Option 2: One Piece World - Emperor Of the Sea - Clown King - Buggy][Option 3: Pokemon World - Lazy Pokemon - Snorlax]Watching the Tailed Beast Ball roaring towards him, Shinji stretched out his hand,“My title as Zhongli's biggest fan wasn't earned for nothing.”

A huge guy is bawling his eyes out. In this day and age? Sure, maybe the world changed while I was away in that other place. I’m not some old-fashioned boomer.But what if that guy is clinging to my pant leg, sobbing and sniffling—And we’re not even acquaintances?Even in modern times, that’s just messed up. Ask any passing kid, they’d agree.So yeah, I shook my leg. He was gross and too close.“The hell’s wrong with you? Crying just ’cause you saw a ghost?” “N-no! I swear, it was really there! You didn’t see it!!”I let the disrespect slide. Barely. He was asking for help and still talking down to me just because I look young?Obviously, I’m not the one who lost his balls. He is.And yet… when I looked where he pointed—Something was there.I threw some coarse salt and looked again.He stared at me like I was insane, but I ignored it.…Yeah. Something was definitely there.It made eye contact.

I, a mere con artist, was unjustly imprisoned in Tantalus, the Abyssal Prison meant for the most nefarious of criminals, where I met a regressor.

But when I used my ability to read her mind, I found out that I was fated to die in a year…

and that the world would end 10 years later.

Polygamy is abolished.

We don’t have to force ourselves to live together anymore…
