Chapter 0TJ - Prelude

It's been months and years since John Archer and Bell Archer, a couple of husband and wife, lived their lives together, free of the assassination, demonic incursion, and whatever that's being war and horrific things.

In fact the Archer Logistics, the military organization John and US Army General Thorns had been established 2 years ago, had now been experiencing one of the longest holiday seasons.

There's no loss though, the Logistics started doing things like mining, R&D and procurement of high tech military and digital technology. 

And now the technological parity reaches like the early 2020s, the time where i left my previous life.

Only here, there's little to no political turmoil, as me and my brothers and sister in arms, especially in Amelion territory... quickly quashed it.

Prices are low as well and everybody is content, due to the land being more than rich in resources. I mean like even a kid could just pick a pickaxe, mining, crafting... Or tend the farm. 

The important thing is everyone is happy, content, and have chances to be special. To be more than just a human.

They'll held their imaginations... in Mobius, that could become true.

John and Bell lived as a happy, married couple. However, due to Bell's real age, she can't conceive or having children. But still, John treats his underclassman along with brothers and sisters in arms like they're friends... or his own child. Bell would've did the same thing.

They live with Sasha Novikov, a Novoslavic orphan turned brother who John saved and personally chose as a brother. Sasha is noted to be the most calm of the three, yet both John and Bell equally liked Sasha while Sasha increasingly felt annoyed with Bell's clingy presence at times, despite being still loyal and loving. 


And now...

John is playing Fortnite. He idled and relaxed after ending a session.

 Bell: John... you have a fancy computer here...

John: Bell...

Bell: Ufufufu... if you're busy, just keep on doing what you do best. If you're done, come with me.

John later finishes what he did. Playing. Or something.

Then he met Bell.

Bell: John... i think it's time for me to get my own PC as well.

John: Well, why asking me? We all know that you're wealthier than me....

Bell: Hehe, i think it's odd for a lady like me to do.... boyish stuff.

John: Uhhhh... PC and videogames aren't exactly just... boyish stuff.

John: You should think of something you want to do. And then...

Bell: Well then, if you're need me, i'll be with you on the bed.

Having a playmate on top of being a wife will be nice. However, due to numerous trial and error and the many things i learn to make even the cheapest of computers, PCs, and laptops to work...

Might be overwhelming... awwww... why do i underestimate somebody who's lived long than me?

Nevermind.

The next day...


John wakes up to see a gorgeous woman in a 19th century style dress sitting besides him. Ribbons adorn her hair.

Surprisingly, despite how John usually being turned by scantily clad, busty woman like how Bell usually appears...

John began to be turned on to what appears to be just an ordinary, but beautiful woman in style of 19th century.

Despite having a body that's different than usual to be point that her bust seems to be compressed...

John immediately recognizes who she is, given that John can sense one's soul. 

Bell: Good morning, my dear one. Ufufu...

John: You...

Bell: Last night, i decide to traverse within my own mindspace.... and, i discovered something of unimaginable power within my soul... It is the Sagestone.

Bell: Because of that...

Bell: Now i'm the Sage. Bell Aster Archer.

Bell: Named after the beautiful aster flower. 

Bell then immediately kisses John.


Bell then doing finger gestures, as if it's tracing something.

The finger gestures were interesting and attractive, as if she's dancing.

Behind her is a multiple screen connected to a pink neon-adorned PC, as if she put together the PC and the workstation behind her in merely a day. It's not impossible for her especially how whenever we mind-link, she can unknowingly delve in and basically read or absorb my knowledges.

I guess i am too underestimating... please, forgive this part of mind.

The screen depicts scenes made with...


Fortnite? I know girls and women who are into that but almost all of them are exactly "not" a lass like my dearest beloved. But everyone could be everyone they want.


Unreal Engine?


John felt missed out after he realized that he's gone to this world without experience in doing Unreal Engine development. Yet his sunshine did it first...

She toyed with the development kit given by Epic through Fortnite.

She created something with Unreal Engine.

Character abilities, parameters, game genres...

From third person shooter, first person shooter, strategy genre, the ever-popular survival crafting, open world...

There's the fact that she managed to port the ever-popular and long-lasting Bethesda's Creation Engine into Unreal Engine, apparently trying to improve it.

Bell invites me to dance together. An intimate moment between lovers.

Both conversed in the middle of the dance.

Bell: You know, why i can do all of this?

John: Hmmmm?

Bell: Because of you. You've been providing your ever regenerating mana to myself.

Bell: This improves me.

Bell: This allows me unlock my own hidden potential.

Bell: Something in my countless years of life i never imagined.... how lucky it is to be with you...

Bell: And this...

Bell: Made me...

Bell: Think like what i never before.

John: Bell, you're beautiful no matter what.

Bell: Yeah, but like boys who keep finding and creating new toys, wouldn't a girl... woman like me can't?

Bell: I need a new form that suits the personality and role you ever dreamed, and you want.

Bell: Ufufufufu....


Like conceiving an offspring, a new software, made in the combination between Unreal Engine and Creation Engine is finally made.

By one woman filled with mana, as in magical powers. 


The "Battle Song".


And it didn't ran on a computer! Not consoles too!


Apparently the Battle Song is a way so that common people can use magic easier than the weird incantations used by my brother and my sister-in-law (though i love to reverse the term instead).

Contrary to the name, it does not need to be powered by song or music... Well, Unreal itself is an ironic name... As the Unreal Engine made Unreal... Real. As in making imaginations turn into reality or vision. 

John himself personally have no need for Battle Song, but...

Bell: Your sister...

Bell: As a singer...

Bell: Myuu...

Bell: She granted powers to those she wanted to. But she's just a girl.

Bell: But myself... and yourself...

Bell: Can grant more of that in just one night...

John, feeling ecstatic, immediately cut the Battle Song program, saving it and exiting it...

Bell: Eh?

John smiles...

John: Let's do it...

Bell: Ufufufufu... (smiles), that means more mana for me, right?

John: I can't bear it much longer... i need to release it...

Both grabbed each others palms, and without disrobing, immediately doing the deed, first by frenching each other, and then....

John: Haaaaa.....aaaahhhh....ahhhhhh....

Bell: Ufuuuu....ufufufufu.....ufufufufu....

A music plays when they do the deed.


Show me what you gonna do

Tell me how you wanna play, eh

You can bring it on

You can bring it on


Hold on, you can make it through

It don't matter what they say, eh

You can bring it on (ooh)

You can bring it on (oh)


Bell: Your fluids... not only it's full of mana, but... it smells and tastes good...

John then closes his consciousness for the time being after a short but meaningful kiss.


The next day...


John: Bell?

John: Bell ??

John: Honey?

John: Sunshine?

John: Strawberry ice cream?


John sighed, knowing that her lover could take care of herself. She isn't weak. 

But John, seeing his wife's PC, which is not turned off yet...

Seeing that there are multiple variants of Battle Song...

Many of which are based on famous, highly regarded video games.

From simple UI instruction, crafting interface, inventory, RTS interfaces...

John is astonished and surprised... her lover did the thing that it took years for him, let alone others, but in a single night...

And she thanked me for all of this, despite John only knowing how to play and only a little of how it's made.

John decided to lay down for awhile.
