The Error has been summoned

“Sir, please, this project is vital to my company; we need you. I have a family on my-“

“Stop with this stupidity and get the fuck out of my face.”

“Sir, please.” He pleaded, but Zion simply don’t give a fuck about the man and his company; He is cutting all his markets and shares. What a goddamn waste, he mumbled; I should have believed in my instincts.

How fucked up is that.

“Gab, my schedule,” He muttered while breathing to calm himself.

“Mr. President, you have a lunch meeting with Mr. Ferrer, at Lacosta Ville, 3 in the afternoon, with Senator Guevara, four thirty with Vice Mayor Ancanel, you have thirty minutes idle time, five in the evening, a charity event with La Pramera Parish, eight in the evening, company anniversary, Mrs. Agusi left a note that you promised her you will attend this year, and ten in the evening will be a dinner meeting with the Korean investors, that’s all, Sir.”

Zion answered by nodding, “I’m too old, yet I still have countless parties to attend, if I’m a little younger, it wouldn’t be a problem, unlike now, I’m feeling too old for that shit, but yeah, business is business, after all, I’m thinking of where to put all my money if I die,”

I was about to grab my pen when I halt, I felt a pang of pain on my chest. I almost couldn’t breathe.

“Are you okay, Mr. President?” Gabriel said; he was standing next to him.

“Yes, as I was saying,” He tried to set aside the pain so that he can finish his concern, “I’m too old for that, tell them I can’t make it due to some important matter I need to address,” Gabriel nodded, “You may leave no, and I accept no visitor for today, that’s all, thank you,”

Copy sir, rest for a while, and let me know if you need anything, I’ll excuse myself,”

“What the hell is this feeling—too foreign,” He mumbled to himself while I didn’t even notice that I get into a deep slumber.

Why do I feel lighter than usual? Every time I’m waking up, I used to feel like shit, my legs and arms were both numb, my head is aching, and also my shoulder. What the hell is happening? The last time that I remember, I just took a nap. I feel lighter, my body feels lighter like it’s not mine at all.

“Are you sure, he’s fine? That you really got a good one?” I heard a voice near me, a female voice to be exact.

“Of course, you got what you paid for,” said the other voice, I’m sure it’s a man’s voice, he sounds very playful to add.

“Let’s wait for the confirmation,” the lady spoke again.

“Confirmation: the error has been summoned.” I heard a robot-like voice near me.

“What the fuck?! I thought you gave us a good one?! What’s this? Why this error? Why didn’t you summon a class S warrior?! We paid you for that!”

“Wait, I made sure, I got a real one!” panic was visible in the man’s voice like he was too, wasn’t happy and contented with what he have done.

“We paid you hundreds of gold and silver! And you’re giving us trash!” I was slightly surprised to hear a younger girl's voice, there was a hint of annoyance and frustration in her voice.

“Hey, listen.” The man tried to calm the situation, “Yes, you paid a large number of golds, but summoning is a gamble, we have a higher chance to get a great summoned, but it does not happen all the damn time.”

I opened my eyes, a man wearing a cloak, a man and a woman who is about the same age as me, and a young girl appeared before me. Their eyes widened when they noticed that I opened my eyes.

“He’s awake?!”

I looked around, it was like I came back from barbaric times, medieval times, there are many tables on both sides, it had different contents, and it was not like the market I used to see when I was a kid, it was not that noisy, most of them are wearing cloaks; like they are afraid to be known, people will think this place is a cult. What the fuck is this place?

There is a wide hallway, there are basements, and the surroundings seem dark, I also feel different here, it seems heavy. Wait, where the hell am I?

Why am I not in my office today? Didn't I fall asleep, why am I here now? Who the actual fuck brought me here, is this some kind of sick joke?!

“Where am I? What’s this place? And what the hell are you wearing?”

There were traces of flabbergast in their eyes when I spoke, what? I can't speak freely?

"Wow, I didn't expect that you didn’t only fail to summon a class S warrior, but also be as rude as this freak! What else did you do?!" said the girl and looked at the man in front of me, I tried to see his face under the thick hood he was wearing, but I couldn't.

“Rude? Are you referring to me? Excuse me, young lady, it is very inappropriate-“

“Woah, young lady? You speak like you’re really older than me. I bet we’re the same age, huh? Why would I respect you?” what the fuck? She’s insisting that I’m rude by the way of my language, but wasn’t it the other way around? Can’t she see that I’m way older than her? This girl—I halt when a man holding a mirror passes through me.

He stopped in front of me, but he was facing the opposite way, that way, I can freely see a reflection in his mirror—who was that? Why is that man mimicking my expression? Wait—he was sitting in the exact position and spot that I am.

I shook my head, and my shoulder, why is he mimicking me?! Is he out of his mind?! I will send him to jail for this!

“Young man, was this the first time you have seen a mirror? Was this the first time you saw your reflection in the mirror?” I looked at the woman absentmindedly, trying to comprehend her words.

She has this warm smile curled up on her lips, wait—wait, I’m lost, I’m confused right now, did she just say, mirror? Huh?

“Mirror? Is that, is that a mirror?” she nods, “What the fuck,” I mumbled, my eyes, still glued on my reflection? Why am I this young? Why did I go back to the younger version of me?! What the hell is happening right now? “What is this place, and what year?”

“It’s the fifteenth era, and uh, you’re in this kingdom,”

“What kingdom?” am I in Latur? I heard, there’s a kingdom and royalty stuff there.

“Eruhuzia kingdom, you’re inside this land.”

"Wait gentlemen, you must be mistaken," this man must think that I'm a fool, I've been studying since I was a child, not just in school, but I'm an old man, I'm not yet alive who can fool me, "I don't remember having a place called Er- what, come again?"

"Eruhuzia kingdom, you are here in our town," based on their looks, the man who is talking was the father, the lady with a warm smile was the mother, and obviously, they are with their daughter.

"You were summoned to help us in the war, and why do you speak like that? Aren't you used to respecting your elders?"

I looked at him from head to toe, I guess he noticed this, because his eyebrows rose, "Why would I talk politely to you? It's obvious that I'm older than you, and to tell you frankly, I don't know you," I stopped and looked at them, "I mean all of you, I don't know you, so don't expect me to treat you with such care and respect.”

"Well, he looks like he's from the modern era, because that's how I read in my books, that's how people in the modern era speak, don't you think it makes sense?" said the girl next to them. I must say, she's a fine lady, but out of my league thou, though I don't date twice my age.

"Honey," I almost laughed when I heard the softening of the man's voice when talking to his son, "I told you to stop reading those fiction books, it's eating your system-"

"What's wrong with reading fiction books?" I defended, "It is fun and you'll learn about many things."

"Enough," he looked at me as if I thought I was a bat, he could just obey because he spoke, what does he take me for? "Let's go home, and there we will explain to you everything you need to know."
