Cruel New World

Ch 12 -- Brand New Future

January 16, 3027

Work ended for the day. Today was boring, as usual. After I left my office, I thought to myself. I always wondered how the romance with Aklieph would turn out. But I guess, it was only a dream. It only sounded good as a dream. Coming that to real life was too creepy. I guess I was delusional. Oh well, there it ends.

Then, I saw the nation's president. He walked towards me. The nation's president's name is Ruphiel. He is from Moderational-Nation Party. He received good critics for being a fair president. I wondered why he would be where I would be at.

"Somera." He called me.

"Yes, president?" I asked. I was surprised that such a crucial figure would even know me, or even call my name.

"Somera. I know you. To a surprise, you are a lot more crucial in Sekai than me." He said.

"What?" I asked.

"Somera." He kneeled to me.

"What are you doing?" I asked. The rest of the Nonbelieveists started filming him.

"What is the president doing kneeling to a citizen?" Some of the Nonbelieveists said.

"Somera, I cannot take this any longer." He said.

"What are you doing? What are you talking about?" I asked.

"Please, let's stop this national world." He begged.

"What?" I asked.

"The world became so fake and entitled because you just accepted it to become indulged in nationalism. Then, the fake felt more legit." He cried.

"I just accepted so that I wouldn't be blamed anymore." I said.

"It was all out of misunderstandings." He cried.

"What?" I asked.

"You just couldn't understand because you had been and have been too unemotional." He said.

"Well, it's too late. I'm fine with the world being this way. I don't care." I confirmed.

"Well, I cannot take such Cruel New World to continue any longer. Let's end this all, once and for all." He finalized.

Then, the Cruel New World ended.
