With a BADHUMP sound something fell on the ground. The dust erupted into the air and a small hall was made on the ground.
That something which fall was none other than me, Sam. My eyes were closed and I was moaning in pain.
When I opened my eyes, I didn't find myself in that greenery place but it was a type of a space. The surroundings were totally black with the edges having cyan colored glow. It was a cubical space.
Everything around me was painted in black and then right infront of my eyes someone came out of the thin air.
It was a middle aged man. He was wearing a black fedora cap. He was in a black suit with white shirt and a black tie. He had long white moustache and a monocle lens in his right eye. The covering of the lens was of brown color.
His nose was slim and his eyes were sharp His eyebrows were black and the strainds of hair falling over his forehead were black.
He had few wrinkles on his face and in his right hand was a brown colored stick. His shoes were formal and totally black, they were shining. His eyes were also black.
He started talking to me, "Hello player. I am Ruckus, keeper of the seven realms of the Seven Sceptre. "
I found him really weird as in the original novel, there was no one with this name, personality and looks. There was actually no keeper of the seven realms of the Seven Sceptre.
The seven realms are actually the seven worlds inside the seven sceptre, each of the size of around 2-3 universes.
Being the keeper of those seven realms, I understood that the person right infront of my eyes was atleast an omnipotent being.
I questioned him, "What do you mean by the keeper of seven realms? "
The man smiled, he sighed in his heart probably as my question to him sounded kind of stupid and then after a break of 1 second, he said, "That means that I guide the players to whichever realm they want to go. Other than that, I also tell each and every players about the mechanism, the rules and other aspects of the game. "
I found it really intriguing and my expressions did show that because he said, "I can see that you are really amazed after hearing about my duty. "
I was startled by the sudden guess, but then I said, "Yeah, then you must be an omnipotent being, right? "
He smiled and muttered, "Ho ho ho. ", then he moved his stick edge to right infront of my nose and said, " Do you want to find out? "
I raised by both hands in reflex and with startled expressions I said, "No no no no, of course not. "
He adjusted his hat using his left hand, put his stick down again and said with cold expressions, "Now, let's not waste each other's time and send you to the realm you want to go. "
I didn't say a word as I was really confused. In the novel, the main character was randomly sent to a realm by the 'Disasters' of the seven realms.
The silence remained for 5 or more seconds and then that man spoke, "Let me provide you with the list of the seven realms and their information in summary form. "
He took a breath, again adjusted his hat using his left hand and then using the same hand, touched the air right infront of me and a screen of green-bluish colored background opened with texts in bold white font.

I read the info of each and every realm and found them same as in novel.
That man standing infront of me started to get impatience, his voice and expressions became more colder and after adjusting his hat again, he said to me, "Now, will you please choose a realm or may I transmit you to a random realm? "
