Chapter 38 - Change of Event

Savant: "if you send your strongest and beat me, i'll stop doing all this shenanigan and go about my way. sounds fair, yes?" Savant looks at Ink, dead serious.

Taken aback by such a bet, Ink wanted to know more

Ink: "And what happens if we lose?"

Savant "oh, what happens if you lose?" He giggles at the question. "isn't that obvious already? i'll continue to enjoy my time in other places, what else is there to do in this boring world."

Ink tries to reason with Savant, but he quickly shuts Ink away. "you don't get to word another sentence." right after saying that, he punches the air which made mirror like cracks appear and quickly spread through the space around them, from the snowy trees, the underground's sky and the very land that they're standing on. Ink was mesmerized by the sight of it, then, extremely loud glass like sound breaks throughout every direction and before he knows it, he's standing right in the middle of the doodle sphere."

"that takes care of that." Savant said, relieved. "you can show yourself to the audience now."

Then in an instant, Jin appears behind Savant, walking towards him casually,

Jin "you don't have to be that direct y'know."

Savant: "oh, like you didn't mention any of that stuff" Savant reminds him of the previous things he said. "Let's just get this shit over with, i've got other stuff to do.", he extends his hand for a what seems to be a handshake towards Jin.

Jin: "welp, i guess we're both busy in our own ways huh?" Jin approaches for the handshake. "i guess i'll see you on the flip side."

Savant: "this early though, are you sure it's worth it?" He takes back his hand.

Jin asks what he meants with a tilted head.

Savant: "you could be a god here! play house with your little family and friends, fight with those suuper strong bad guys with those absurd multiversal levels of bullshit you have up your ass. and yet, you choose to die over something as simple as getting a new jacket." Then puts down his hand for the handshake again "so tell me, are ya sure whatever that you're doing is worth it?"

Jin: " Welll, I can't say no to a free costume change!" He exclaims happily. "And who knows, it might even help with avoiding cerrrtain situations from looking like exactly the same as another person" Jin says in lower volume, pretending to be whispering.

Savant: ugh tsk,then shut up and die already for all i care." with their hands shook, slowly, bright white cracks started spreading from the handshake to every part of Jin's body with an otherworldly mirror like cracking sounds. Then the cracks stops after spreading throughout his entire body, before shattering into many little white shards

Jin has died.

Savant: "hmm, i guess i'll have to run this dumb show for a while.", knowing that the attention will be on him for a while, he knows he has to put up with the facade Jin has made until he comes back. "what a drag."
