Bored Gamer in Other World

Every book she'd ever read, I memorized and mastered than the one who penned it.

And every doubt that hindered her progress in the fields she studied was solved by me and my brain with but a breath's time.

And everything I learned shall never be forgotten. Thanks to the skill Perfect Memory.

Perfect Memory – grants the user absolute control of his memory and those he assimilates. (never forgets any knowledge acquired)

Now I am what I call a genius! The true embodiment of the word. HAHAHA!

"Welcome to the Xia Hypermart, Sir!" an automated voice greeted me. It belonged to a gorgeous woman composed of rubber and wires, as usual.

Since the advent of Androids and AI's became the new trend, it had replaced much of the working populace of humans.

These humourless alternatives were much efficient in work and would operate every second of the year with no absences caused by sickness or just plain laziness.

Who would not want that in their company? HAHAHA!

"What are you searching to buy, Sir? Let me serve as your guide. It would be my pleasure to do so." The nosy woman did as she was programmed.

But I did waste my breath on her. I have a map of the entire complex on my brain and who would want to speak to a soulless thing? Only morons do that.

"Hello, dear customer. We have every cell phone products in the entire galaxy available in this store.

Please choose what you want and call for any assistance if you need to." The familiar boring sound reached my ears when I got to my destination.

"Get me 5 cell phones. I want the latest models and the most expensive ones." I gave my requirement.

"Thank you for patronizing our shop, Mr. Everhart. Please come again!" the same voice bade me goodbye after she lent me my golden card back together with a bag of my purchases.

"Excuse me, friend. I was wondering if you were the one who bought the limited edition Stask 3210 cell phones?" a big guy barred my path after three minutes of walking back.

He was together with his friends, four of them. And everyone seemed rich college students that got their mouths filled with rice in a golden spoon since birth.

"Yes. What about them?" I asked.

"You see I promised my girlfriend that I would buy her that brand on her birthday. Today's that day. I heard that you bought five of them.

Will you give us four of those? I'm sure my girlfriend would be ecstatic to have them.

Be assured though that I will mention your name to her so that she can say her thanks tonight for your wonderful donation.

So what's your name? HAHAHA!" the guy said in length and his eyes turned crimson. The atmosphere visibly rose several degrees higher as an illusion of misty smoke surrounded me.

They were clearly aiming for easy prey and had done this before many times. And their good luck has set their paths and mine to cross today. What lucky guys! HAHAHA!

"Death…" I whispered.

"What was that?" The big guy leaned closer together with the four people who caged me in the center.

"BLAZE!" an ethereal flame encircled our group and within a breath, only I remained standing in place.

"Congratulations, host. You have acquired 5 shop points!" I heard Nomad's genderless voice in my ears.

White residues were neatly sprinkled upon the spots where the five guys had just occupied.

No alarm had been sounded and even the motion and sound detectors of the establishment was deaf and blind to the incident.

"I am Death." I said once more in respect to the recently departed. HAHAHA!

I walked unimpeded as I retraced my steps back to whence I came.

"Where to, Sir?" a mechanical voice queried after I returned to my loyal ride.

"To the University of Abalet." I replied and looked forward to confronting the reason why I was jailed in the first place in the past.

"This will be fun." I muttered and a hideous smile appeared on my ugly face.

Chapter 10

"We have arrived, Sir!" the voice of the AI on the flying transport ship announced after only a minute of travel.

"Hmmm. What a familiar sight." I thought after i had landed not far away from the ancient structure.

Where other Universities would sport class and extravagance, this one stayed in tune with a past long gone.

Like a painting on a canvas that was worthy of remembrance as it had already escaped the present times altogether. 

But no, this school stood tall as if frozen in time and defied the challenges of the passing tides. It had done what it was meant to do, provide a place for the have-nots to have a school to call their own.

A sanctuary where they were all bundled up and was separated from the rest of the society. This was why the aristocrats had deemed it necessary for such relic to linger on.

It had its uses. Since destroying it required money. Same as replacing these haunted walls. Thus, it shall remain.

"HAHAHA! It's good to be back!" I thought cheerily and inspected every corner of the University, one that had taught me for four years in high school.

Secondary and Tertiary education mixed in a single establishment. HAHAHA! Oh! How the minds of our wise leaders have evolved to this.

But they cared not. The pragmatism of the human species today has made it a point that the poor had totally lost their voices.

After all, they could cry all they want but that was all. A practice of futility in the end. HAHAHA!

"Your ID, boy!" a fat guy who wore an untidy uniform said as i was about to enter the premises of my dear alma mater.

"Here." I answered and looked fondly at the man who tried to do his job well. The fat guy inspected the ID and me to for visual comparison.

"Go.." the guard then returned the ID to me and stepped aside to let me pass.
