My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character!

"Before I use the Question Voucher, I want to ask you one question," Eren said, his expression completely serious.

This question had been weighing on his mind for a long time, and he believed only the person before him could provide the answer he needed.

"Why was I brought to this world?" Eren asked. He had been wondering why, out of all the billions of people on Earth, he had been the one selected.

Was it truly a coincidence? Was it really because he was the first person to leave a review on the book? Eren had always felt that something was amiss.

Was it really a coincidence that the advertisement for a non-existent website appeared in front of him? Even though he was the one who decided to leave the review, was it really because of that?

"If I hadn't left that review, would I still be brought here?" he modified the question, noticing the author's silence.

"Some things are inevitable in this world," the Author told Eren, vaguely confirming his notion.

Eren understood that his arrival didn't have anything to do with the review. It probably didn't even have anything to do with the fact that he had read the book.

Then why? Why did it have to be him who was supposed to be here? He wondered.

"Why was it me then? If you can answer that one question, I will use the question voucher to ask the question you want me to ask," Eren told the person, making his stance clear.

"I can't answer that question." The Author once again went silent. It was unclear if he didn't want to answer or he just couldn't answer.

"In that case, there is nothing to discuss. I don't want to use the Question Voucher yet. If death is waiting for me, I will find a way out of it myself," Eren told the Author, standing up from the seat. "I will not run away."

With that, the conversation had come to a sudden end. Eren decided against using the Question Voucher, simply to get an answer about the inevitable.

"Since you don't want to know, then I will take my leave. I really hope you will not regret this decision." The Author also stood up, not trying to convince Eren.

He prepared to leave now that the conversation had fallen apart. However, just as he was about to return, his expressions turned grim.

He noticed the question voucher appearing in Eren's hands. The voucher started shining, turning into golden shackles that wrapped around the author's body.

As long as he was under the effect of the chains, he had to answer the one question that was asked from him.

The Question had to be answered, unless it went against the laws of the world to the point that even his entire existence could be torn apart before he could answer.

The Author's eyes narrowed, watching Eren turn back towards him. The person had just claimed that he was not going to use the question voucher, only to change his mind in the end.

He wondered what this person was going to ask. Was he really going to ask him to list all the things that were about to go wrong that would lead to his death? Or was he going to go for an even more complicated answer about his existence?

Eren walked closer to the author, the chains tightly wrapping around the author's body to prevent him from leaving.

Eren stopped merely a few meters away from the author. His lips slowly parted as he asked his question.

As soon as the Author heard the question, his expressions went absolutely dark. Even when he had heard the potential questions Eren wanted to ask, he hadn't reacted this strongly.

It was the first time the author resisted so much when it came to answering a question. Unfortunately, his lips moved on their own as the answer came out from his mouth.

At the same time, the sky above the Holy City turned dark, as if some unknown taboo was broken in this world. Thunder roared in the sky, making the entire city tremble.

After the Author finished answering, the chains around his body disappeared. The author appeared much weaker. Even the mist that had wrapped around his body, became thinner, barely hiding his existence.

"This was something you never should have asked!" The Author told Eren, his gone getting louder for the first time since as long as Eren remembered.

He wasn't the only one who appeared shocked. Eren looked just as shocked, not expecting the answer that he had received. stay-updated-with-NovelFire

The Author didn't stay behind for even a second longer. Now that he had finished answering the question, he was freed from the restriction of the shackles.

Eren had also used the question voucher and he couldn't use it anymore, at least until he received another one.

The author appeared very frustrated even as he turned around, his body disappearing into the unknown as he returned where he came from.

Before he left, he still left a few sentences behind for Eren.

"Since you wasted that opportunity to get involved in something even more complicated, I can't tell you what I came down for. Still, if you want to change the fate I wanted to avoid, accept that sword of that fool..."

He didn't tell what wasn't supposed to be told. However, he still left a hint behind for Eren which was vague yet clear at the same time.

There was only one sword that could help him if the situation was so dangerous that even the author believed that he was going to die.

Eren rubbed his left arm, which was hiding a sword mark.

With the departure of the author, the flow of time inside the palace returned to normal.

"How are you back so fast? Didn't you just enter to have a shower?" Xiu Ying's voice came from behind, bringing Eren out of his daze.

As time had stopped for her while he could move, it was as if she had skipped time.
