Raghunandan turns his head around.
"There's no need to be scared; the beast is already dead."
There was complete deadly silence.
'They are standing like statues. By the way, are they statues?'
The surroundings began to turn black. A transparent blue color screen appeared.
[Time has been stopped for some time. Let's talk]
Raghunandan looked at the text on the screen.
"What does this unknown want to talk about?"
[Unknown!🔥😡😡😡💢💢💥💥😠😠😠. Do I look unknown to you!]
Raghunandan was dumbfounded after looking at the text and the emojis on the screen.
'What is this unknown?'
[I am not unknown 🔥😡😡😡💢💢💥💥😠😠😠 I am... I am... 💢💢💢💢😡😡😡😡😡😡]
The screen went blank.
[From where do I begin again?]
[Hi! I am the fate changer.]
"So the unknown is the fate changer."
[Yes, and I am not unknown 🔥😡😡😡💢💢💥💥😠😠😠]
"Sorry."
[As your fate has been changed, there will be severe consequences]
"Severe consequences?"
[You are talking like you don't know about consequences]
[💢💢 I will explain it to you]
A 3D projection appeared. There were countless threads going and connecting to the ball.
[Hear me out now]
Raghunandan didn't see the text but heard the clear voice of a man.
[Tell me what you can see]
"I see a ball. Countless threads of different colors are getting connecting to it."
[The ball that you see is not a ball; it's a star]
[There are countless stars like this that create a constellation]
[The constellation is the fate itself of a person or anything]
[The threads are people like you]
[There are countless threads because there are countless possibilities]
[Each star is a destination of a person]
[The star has a strong attraction]
Raghunandan had a puzzled look at the projection.
"So why do the threads have different colors?"
[The answer is simple: each thread represents a person's karma and destiny.]
The projection became big; now there were so many stars, each one colored. They looked like big balls. There was a small glowing point from which different colored threads extended outward, randomly connecting to a star. Thick ropes formed by the threads twisted together, connecting other stars and creating a vast, unknown, endless pattern where countless constellations could be seen inside the design or pattern, and they were random.
[Look, as you can clearly see, each thing is random, but they come from the same origin]
[Their origin is heaven, which has bestowed a fate]
[It's easy to say that nobody escapes fate]
There was complete silence.
[You will have a question how?]
[The answer is very simple]
[Even if a person has the ability to see the future, if it is fated, then]
[No matter how much he/she tries or works to change the future, it won't change]
[It will never change]
[But]
A new star appears that is far away from the endless pattern. One thread that was connected to a star detached itself from the start and went to that new star and got attached.
[Our work is to create a new path that forces heaven to give up and bestow a new fate]
"What about severe consequences?"
Some threads get disconnected from the rope and start moving to that new star. The star now looks overloaded.
[Heaven is stubborn; it tries to bring back the old fate again]
[It forcefully puts other things into that fate]
[So]
More stars appeared. Some threads formed ropes and got connected to the other stars, creating a constellation.
[We create more paths until heaven finally gives up]
[But it does not bestow a new fate]
[That's why countless things change and countless new possibilities are born]
[Remember, there is no end]
"Every action has a reaction, and every percent matters."
[Yes, that's correct]
The 3D projection disappeared, and the screen returned.
[💢💢💢💢💥💥💢💢🔥🔥🔥🔥😡😡😡😡😡]
Looking at the emojis on the screen, Raghunandan was puzzled.
[First, I have to do something about your calm behavior]
[You are too calm because you were a high-level military general]
[Killing thousands of creatures like you were cutting meat as a chef]
[Here, be a chef; don't create problems]
[Status window]
Name: Raghunandan Joshi
Class: Chef
Affinity: ???
Mana: None
Skills: Online store, item box, appraisal.
Note:He is not even on the level of the hero.
[Remember, the maximum things that are commonly talked about in your world are encrypted by the gods on this planet, so be on alert. They won't harm you, but remember, don't open your mouth]
"I will keep that in mind."
[There is another thing; there are some beings like you in this world]
"Isn't these youngsters getting counted?"
[They won't be getting counted; they will get brainwashed by the power they receive from this planet]
"There is still something that is questionable?"
[What's that?]
"About my new fate."
[Don't think much about it; you will know about your new fate soon]
"Okay."
[Now hear me out clearly.]
[First, open your online store.]
Raghunandan clicks on the online store option. The online store opens up. There are options for buying cooking utensils and cooking materials. In the upper extreme right, there is an option written Amount:0₹
[The online store works on the INR currency.]
[The world's lowest denomination is the Zerothen.]
[10 INR is equal to 1 Zerothen.]
[You have to enter either a coin or a note of this; according to that, it will convert it into INR.]
[The item box has limited space; as you level up or the item box levels up, its space increases.]
[Inside the item box, time does not exist.]
[If you put a vegetable in it and remove it after 1000 years, the vegetable will be the same as it was 1000 years ago.]
[Appraisal is a powerful skill, but it has limitations.]
[For each person, the Appraisal skill works differently.]
[For you, I have specially removed the limiter, but remember, don't tell anyone.]
[People will think you can only Appraise things related to cooking, but they don't know you can Appraise anything.]
"Whatever you told, I will keep that in mind."
