Bored Gamer in Other Worlds

"Don't you worry, master! I'm going to complete this quest easily!" These were Little Black's last words before he journeyed to meet his friends.

"I know you will, Little Black. I know you will." Our bored gamer muttered while looking gazing at the metal walls of the ship.

Unbeknownst to everyone, he was following the steps of Little Black into the Thephri domains.

The quest that he had given unto his pet was only very simple to finish so he was not at all worried about it.

What Clark was more interested in knowing was how everyone else was going to take the news.

"Only time can tell." With one last look, our good gamer sighed and whisked this worry out of his mind.

Months passed and a huge warship landed in the nearest outpost of the Alliance. There was trouble at first since nobody knew about the covert mission that Jailbird 26771 was put under.

Luckily enough, Zoe straightened things out and it was obvious with this action that she had much clout in the higher ups of the Alliance.

"You should stay here, Kian. There will be more debriefing to follow and..." Zoe started saying but she stopped our bored gamer's timely interruption.

"There are a few things I want to happen, Zoe."

"First... help me clear the names of Nicole and Cora."

"They should be cleared from all charges."

"Other than that, I want to add a few more names to the list." Our bored gamer produced a paper with a list of names, complete with all the crimes that they had been charged with.

This was of course the prisoners who Clark had deemed free of any fault whatsoever with the use of the green and red tags of the system.

After all, not all convicted prisoners were truly guilty of their crimes.

In comparison to the 55,000 souls who returned, those in this list were only a small portion indeed.

"I also want to take this bird as my own private property." Clark smiled towards Zoe after he finished telling all his wishes.

"I don't have the power to do that." Zoe hesitated for a beat. If this was any other guardian, she would have easily slapped his face with a big no and spat a heartless laugh next.

Alas, this was a great unknown named Guardian Kian Fisher.

"You and your boss can decide to do it. Or would you rather that I personally dip my hands on this problem?" Clark asked and sported an excited grin thereafter.

There was no difference whether he exposed his real strength now or later. It was merely a question of convenience after all.

"Let me call my boss first." Zoe said at once because she knew about the temperament of our avid gamer.

Behind this seemingly ordinary and harmless face was a mighty giant that was willing to be unleashed at any time and place.

"Do it." Theodore instructed once he got informed about the current situation. Although he did not want to surrender to blackmail like this but he had no choice in the matter.

This kind of thing was something bigger than himself. This old soldier almost broke the phone with how tight he was gripping it.

"What about the rest of the prisoners, Sir?"

"The ones not on Leviathan's list." Zoe queried on the other line. Leviathan has been the code name they had given unto our very own protagonist.

"Since Leviathan cared for these people, grant the rest new identities."

"Let them mingle into society once more and if they return to their past habits, execute them in silence."

"I want a full team to monitor everyone's actions."

"Most especially in Leviathan's footsteps." Theodore ordered.

"I understand, Sir." Zoe replied and cut the line thereafter. Since this mission was not legally sanctioned, she would have no choice but to use her androids into the game.

It would be a hard task but certainly not impossible.

"Thank you for everything, Sir Guardian!"

"We will never forget your kindness!"

"I hope to see you again in the next life, Sir!"

The farewells commenced and the 55,000 souls all thought that they were going to get killed in the most humane way possible later on.

One should know that this status was never new to them at all. This was after all their fate in the first place.

They were just lucky that they met our bored gamer in the ship and prolonged the inevitable punishment for their crimes.

"..." Clark could only nod and smile at the thousands of women around him. There was nothing left to say at this time but only a sad goodbye to his space mates.

Our good gamer then boarded the warship and moved out from this outpost together with Cora and Nicole. It did not need telling that he got his authorization in the end.

But unbeknownst to Clark, he was granted more than that today.

"Alright! Everyone line up!"

"Follow me and maintain your distance!"

"Don't try to escape or you will be executed on sight!" A soldier with complete full body armour shouted towards the 55,000 prisoners.

He was not alone of course since he got more than a thousand comrades in place.

They were armed with high tech gears and weapons so it was easy to contain everyone and transfer them to another place entirely.

The tense walk lasted for more than 20 minutes before they arrived in a huge empty hall.

"Are they going to kill us all in there?" A woman asked and she was already in tears.

"Shhhh... Don't speak. Just pray." A believer consoled the sobbing woman.

"No words or gods are going to save us today."

"If I were you, I wouldn't waste my breath." An unbeliever contradicted.

"Why argue? I know for a fact that I deserve to be dead after all the things I have done." A guilty one offered her view on how things should be.

...

Several talks like this were happening at once and it did not take long for a mixture of noises to gain momentum.

Surprisingly enough, everyone's jaw dropped the moment they heard an unbelievable announcement around them.

"Okay! First things first! Nobody is going to die today!"
