Please note that the "Hirata" and "Hirata's World" in this volume refer to the characters and chapters of "Gag Manga Nikwa". It has nothing to do with the story of "Hirata Shuichi" in the previous volume.
…
Before the two Titled Kings could recover from their shock, the change of scenery had arrived.
And this time, it was similar to the opening cinematic.
They suddenly lost control of their bodies and entered a first-person perspective …
Soon, a gray sky appeared in front of their eyes. Then, the camera panned down … A three-dimensional street scene appeared in the screen.
On a place that looked like a rooftop, a left hand … or more accurately, a human's left hand … picked up a comic book. One second later, a right hand flipped the book open.
At that moment, the camera 'traveled' into a two-dimensional world.
The style of this world was simple and crude … It looked like the world of a gag manga.
"Ours, tomorrow's …" As the scene changed, a piece of music played in the players' ears.
"Light, in front of you …"
"Eyes, in the depths of your heart …"
The song continued to play, and the camera kept moving and changing …
"Under the vast sky …"
"Door of dreams …"
This CG scene moved from a four-eyed guy in green clothes sitting in a shop eating ramen, to the gloomy baseball players on the TV screen of the ramen shop … and then to the four-eyed guy … and then to a female streamer … and then to the four-eyed guy … and then to the four-eyed guy … and then to the four-eyed guy … and then to a female streamer … and then to the four-eyed guy …
This cycle continued, switching back and forth between the ramen-eating guy and many seemingly unrelated characters.
"Light, must …"
"The power of tears, the power of the heart, must …"
"The end of freedom … Yes! Fixed! The oil stains on your hands … "
"Gag Manga Nikwa!"
The song was not that good. Be it the lyrics, melody, or arrangement … they all gave off a 'serious' vibe, but … it made the audience feel … emotional!
By the time the song was over, the messy and incomprehensible scenes were also over.
The next second, Feng Bujue and Wang Tanzhi regained control of their bodies.
Their surroundings had become a vast expanse of grassland.
The terrain here was slightly inclined, and the grass was green.
The sky looked a little gloomy, and the gentle breeze made the two of them feel a little chilly.
[It's about time … for me to lay my cards on the table.] Suddenly, a slightly hoarse and lazy male voice sounded.
"Did you hear that?" Feng Bujue looked at Xiao Tan.
"Ah …" Xiao Tan replied, "I heard it very clearly …"
The reason why the two of them said this was because … the voice they "heard" at that moment was abnormal.
These words were not received through their "ears", but directly appeared in their minds. It was just like … the system voice.
[My name is Hirata Heino.]
[I'm a little different.]
[I've sensed it …]
[I realized that I'm actually a character in a comic.]
"Oh? Is it Hirata-kun? " The look in Feng Bujue's eyes changed slightly. Many clues were strung together in his mind, and the tiredness accumulated in his mind was swept away at this moment. "Haha … Now … everything makes sense."
"Ah! I think I've read this story before. " Wang Tanzhi's eyes lit up, and he whispered to Brother Jue, "It's called Hirata's World, right? I think it's a Chinese dubbed version."
Pu! Pu! Pu!
Before Xiao Tan finished, several strange noises came from not far away.
At the same time, from the corner of his eyes, he saw … several black shadows descending from the sky. The black shadows landed on the grass several meters away from him and his Brother Jue.
"Huh? That's not what I expected … "Feng Bujue turned around to look at the 'things' that landed on the grass, and he said with a chilling smile.
"Hey … Brother Jue … What's going on?" Two seconds later, Xiao Tan also saw the real faces of the black shadows. His Terror Points shot up instantly. He suddenly realized that … some parts of this so-called 'funny comic' world were even scarier than a real horror movie.
"Initially … I was filled with curiosity about this world.
Based on my understanding of comics, I came up with some scenarios that might happen.
And everything … happened one by one. "
When Hirata spoke, Feng Bujue's eyes wandered over the pile of bloody bodies on the ground.
"I wanted a nemesis, and here he is."
Listening to his words, Feng Bujue's eyes stopped on a dead body that was wearing white underwear. The body was slightly rotund. He wore a pair of blue shoulder pads, white underpants, white knee-length socks, green sneakers, and a pair of white wrist guards.
"He was wearing underwear on his head, and he had a pair of monster ears. He had a cute hairstyle that looked like a ball of fur on his head. He's obviously a loathsome guy, yet he claims to be my rival in love.]
[Although I don't know his name, he said the name of my "lover" … Xiao Ye (Japanese pronunciation: Yo-chan).]
Brother Jue's eyes moved again to another dead body. The appearance of this corpse was simple to describe … It was a tall, thin, middle-aged man wearing blue swimming trunks with a buzz cut.
"Xiaoye was an uncle who chewed on something weird. Instead of calling him Xiaoye, it would be more accurate to call him Uncle Ye.
[Just as I was thinking about whether or not I should just give Xiao Ye to that piece of trash, Brother Nemesis mentioned that I was a "Striker". Thus, I thought … Did I have a master or something?]
When he heard this, Xiao Tan could not help but look down to the ground … The body that he was looking at, in terms of body, was no longer human. It felt like … this was a humanoid creature that the author wanted to draw but messed up.
The creature's head was a rough oval with eyebrows, eyes, nose, and mouth covering the entire face. Its body was thinner than its head, like a long strip. Its torso had a dozen intersecting abdominal muscles that looked like fish bones. Its limbs were short, and its arms were thicker and longer than its legs.
"Then, a disgusting looking master appeared and said that I was the successor of the 'Ohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohoho.
"There was no other way … I could only try to use a killing move. In the end, I clapped my hands and released the master's twin brother.
"Ah … I see it …" Feng Bujue looked at the body that was lying next to his' master '. It looked exactly like his master.
"After defeating the nemesis, the masters mentioned a setting that seemed to be the main storyline … defeat the Demon King."
If the master's appearance was "he wanted to draw a human but didn't do it well," then the Demon King's style could be described as "he gave up on treatment." He had a face that was similar to Xiao Ye's. Even though he was only wearing his underwear, at least he looked normal. It was just that … his torso was like layers of rice cakes stacked on top of each other, and there were two rows of thin and long soft hair floating on both sides of his torso … From afar, he looked like a centipede with a human head and long legs.
"However, not long after the Demon King appeared, he died from his old illness (coughing) …"
"Hmm … this is indeed Hirata's World …" After hearing so much from the voice, Xiao Tan could basically remember the plot of the anime. "But … how come I remember that only the nemesis and the Demon King died? The other three characters should still be alive …"
"When Xiao Ye and the two masters tossed me into the sky and cheered, 'Long live the Demon King', I realized …"
At that moment, Hirata Heino's tone changed …
It became low and sinister …
"I am a character from a parody comic.
From the beginning of the story, I am a joke.
"A laughable nemesis, a laughable lover, a laughable master, and a laughable Demon King.
"A laughable, short life …
"I have no ties that I can't let go of, no unforgettable love, no legacy of kindness, and no hot-blooded battles.
[What I have is the ability to comment on everything that appears before my eyes.]
"I can't move people, and people don't care about my feelings.
"I am unwilling to accept this kind of life, but I can't escape this cycle.
"Every time someone flips through a comic, opens a web page, opens a file, or plays a video … I have to repeat this endless nightmare.
"I've had enough!
"So, I killed them …
"I want you to understand that I …
"… am not a whining slave for you to pass the time."
The last sentence changed from a "system voice" to a conversational one.
Before the voice finished, Feng Bujue and Wang Tanzhi turned to the source of the voice.
However, they saw that … a figure had appeared on the lawn behind them at some point in time.
It was a man wearing a light green long-sleeved sweater and a pair of gray pants. He had medium length hair. He looked very normal and ordinary. Just like his name … Hirata Heino. If this was some kind of hot-blooded comic, a character like him would only be a minor character.
But here, in Hirata's World, he was the main character.
"Haha … What do you mean by 'for us to pass the time'?" Feng Bujue smiled and looked at Hirata calmly. "How come … I don't understand what you're saying?"
"There's no point in denying it." Hirata's tone turned harsh. "Gu Yun Mao Tarō, Jin Izumi Sun Tarō …" His eyes scanned Brother Jue and Xiao Tan's faces. "Those aren't your real names, right?" He raised his head and grinned wickedly. "I know you're … players."
