Twin Reincarnation: Epics Of The Worldline



[Lucy's POV: ]

A kiss is the touch or pressing of one's lips against another person or an object, or sometimes, the word kiss itself could be used in different ways to express a similar kind of emotion, for example, a flying kiss or 'kissing with eyes'.

"It's a unique thing, I would say. So, this question would be one of the most fun things for all the people taking this exam.

[ "Ohh! Ohhh! Did you already reach the kiss question~?" ]

"I hadn't even said anything and she already knew it from this unique feeling I have when thinking about this specific word 'kiss'."

It's special for both of us, after all.

A kiss, be it of any kind, is precious for both of us.

The touch of lips, one of the most essential human organs, against the surface of another person, their skin, their soul, the core being itself bears more importance than one might make it to be… well, I think it that way at least.

[ "Yeah. I am on the kiss question. But-" ]

[ "Alright then~. Write how you kissed me for the first time the last time~. Write about that deep, passionate kiss we had for three hours on that mountaintop surrounded by dead bodies of those fuckers~.

Ohhhh! And write how we fucked after-" ]

[ "No thanks." ]

She had her own point of view about a kiss, of course. And though some matched with mine, many were unique to herself alone.

'Some of the beliefs she had about a kiss didn't make any sense at all. They were just absurd… like who else would consider a precise twelve-minute-long kiss exactly after a twenty-four hours long torturous edging session, which was actually followed by a thirty-six-hour-long starvation fast, the 'second' sweetest kiss?

IT DID NOT MAKE ANY SENSE!'

But she liked it, and if she liked it, what harm was there to play along with her? I kind of started liking it after a while anyway. It sure was a fun thing, perhaps.

'Or perhaps I have also gone crazy to think that way.'

It was a fact that I was crazy, perhaps more than her, but, my craziness was pretty civil, ok?

I didn't consider whatever we do something 'good' or 'bad'. It was our thing so it couldn't be labeled as good or bad anyway to begin with.

And most of the things we do is out of the norm, so just trying to understand that stuff can hurt one's mind, let alone even having the guts to practice something like that.

One could very much die three times in any of those processes so it is never advised to anyone, be it a mortal, a divine being, a god, or even a demon.

'That stuff can earn us absurd achievement rewards if we do it here… which we will, most probably. But it would be somewhere in a distant future.'

It wasn't the topic right now. The kissing was.

[ "Whaaaaaaaaa! You won't write about our passionate first-time lovemaking~?! Then what are even gonna write? About how you want to kiss me this time as well?!" ]

[ "Of course." ]

That was the plan, writing about how I will kiss her first this time as well. And not with her permission or anything like that time but directly when she would expect it the least.

[ "In your dreams you son of a bitch mother fucking dust-licking asshole! I will rip those fucking hot lips of yours if you even dare to think of it!

I'm going to kiss you first this time!! This is an order! If you even try to-" ]

[ "Yeah yeah. You ain't the only master this time. I'm your master too so you can't order me~." ]

[ "You wish you dung beetle shitball! I am and will remain the only true master!! Go kiss Eva if you want to… no. I dare you to fucking kiss anything before I kiss those sexy lips of that dashing young daddy face of yours!

You are dead if you let even a fly touch those smoochies!" ]

She was acting cute again, hehe.

[ "Alright, alright calm down ma'am." ]

I would have kissed her if she was here but, in this place, this special beach with a pink-dyed sky and a golden ocean, I was all alone and sad, and empty…

[ "No! Promise me you will not do anything!" ]

She was angry, but I knew she would still be writing down the long and complicated answers to all those seemingly simple questions like usual.

She's funny for doing something like that too. It's cute.

[ "I can't promise it, girl, you know that well already." ]

[ "Of course you can you fucking stingy ice block! Fine then! I will use a wish-" ]

[ "And I will use a wish to cancel yours so save it. If you want to, then calculate the perfect timings to do it and surprise me." ]

[ "Surprise you? Surprise you! Fuck! Ok! I will surprise the shit out of you when it's time! Hump! Don't talk to me now!" ]

And then, she silenced down and probably went into a super-fast writing mode to finish whatever she was doing.

'She must be around her 19th question by now.'

But she would have to hurry if she wanted to get a better score than me since two hours had passed already.

This was my twenty-fourth question anyway so I was almost done now, just the last few things were needed to finish this kiss question and then, I would be able to jump to the last question, the question that tests human limits and the level of their knowledge.

"But first the kiss question… so where was I?"

I looked at the green screen before me and the last thing there was a cultural connection or something.

"Ok so, yes the cultural connections of a kiss vary widely too.

Depending on the culture and the context, a kiss can express sentiments of love, passion, romance, sexual attraction, sexual activity, sexual arousal, affection, respect, greeting, peace, and good luck. But in the greater context of the Worldline, it holds an even deeper connection with the cultures and the context.

There are many places in this worldline where a kiss specifically means the goodbye from one's life, in one part, it represents hunger, while in one part, a kiss means condolence from another person for one's death.

In some situations, a kiss is a ritual, formal or symbolic gesture indicating devotion, respect, or a sacrament. While in some situations, a kiss represents pain…"

It was strange and deep, just like all the other questions on this test. And even after giving this test so many times, it still feels just as much fascinating as it had been the first time we gave it.

The questions were always the same, but just the fact that they changed the sequence of these questions as well as tweaked them just a little for all of us changed many things.

'Rex must be frustrated to death by now, Cathy must be overwhelmed with embarrassment. AJ would have already finished this after giving his 'unique' answers, while Lux should have realized what these questions meant by now.

And Nes must still be stuck on some middle questions like El, thinking too deeply about these simple questions, trying to answer them the best way she could. As for Ras… well, that bastard should also be finishing things on his side.'

They were the special protagonists who would follow the new storyline that we would create. But still, they were all smart, and strong, and had their own special talents and destinies, but above all, just like all of us, this was also the start of their journey with us, and it was inevitable that we would cross paths with each other soon.

'But I'm looking forward to it.'

Nes was the first, and then Lux. So, who would be the next one we see during the practical that will start soon after this test of 25 questions is over?

"It would be fun regardless of who it is actually… since whoever we meet, will be our opponent in that underground labyrinth, kek.'
