Chapter 2: The Wrong Method of Initiating
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Hi, I’m Meng Yang. I’ve been captured by a monster from a different world. I need you to rescue me. As long as you reply ‘Y’ to the text message, I can help you transmigrate instantly. With good looks, you can have a harem. With a poor background, you can change the world. Dominating the world as a king, training to become a God, and leveling up. There are limitless unimaginable things you can do. Join quickly. To unsubscribe, reply ‘T’.”
In a small and cheap eatery that was less than 20 square meters wide, a 35-year-old, single owner and at the same time, chef hurriedly wiped his greasy right hand with the apron on his chest. He picked up a black smartphone beside the chopping board. He took a quick glance at it.
“What trashy phone is this, it doesn’t even have any spam block function let alone traveling through a different world. Why don’t you say that you are Emperor Qin Shi Huang, and there are still 100 tons of gold yet to be dug out?” After looking at the contents of the message, the single shop owner could not help but fume silently.
He recently flirted with a little girl who often came to the eatery to eat. After shamelessly adding her as a WeChat contact, he was relying on his experience of watching various live short videos on Baidu Tieba forum in the past years to chat with her awkwardly. Even when he was stir-frying food for his customers, whenever the phone rang, he would feel nervous.
Initially, he thought it was her replying to his messages. However, it turned out to be a spam message. He really wanted to flame the message. What kind of grandpa would say, “I, Qin Shi Huang, need money!1” A popular scam as such, he had already seen several different versions of it.
In this ever-changing world, even a simple message had developed into a spam business. Pfft! Reply with the letter ‘Y’; reply ‘T’ to unsubscribe; who would give a damn?!
“Boss, get the stir-fried clams the guests want ready! Faster!” The voice of a part-time waiter from outside was heard.
“Understood!”
After the single shop owner/chef responded, he opened his WeChat. He saw the series of messages that he sent had not been responded to. He then threw the phone back onto the chopping board in frustration. He let out a long sigh. In the end, being a simp got him nothing in return!
At the same time, in an office building, an office of a technology company, the sound of tapping and typing on the keyboard clattered through.
A black eye bag as thick as his -5 dioptres (or in layman’s terms, 500 degrees) prescribed glasses hung below a man’s eyes. He was devoting himself to the great cause of his routine work.
Ding dong, the fruit-branded mobile phone that he was charging rang. The coder just glanced at the illuminated screen. He resumed his own routine work right after.
When he saw such a long text message, he knew that it was either an online store promotion or entertainment news. The fruit-branded mobile phone did not have any SMS block function. Today, one would feel embarrassed for saying that they were living in an Internet era but did not receive 3 or 5 spam messages a day. Besides, apart from these spam messages, what important news could a guy who was single receive anyway?
“Crazy!”
Somewhere, a girl jogging with her wireless earphone at night also heard the text message from her earphone. After stopping, she took a look at the mobile phone in her arm bag. She muttered silently. Then, she continued trotting along the pavement.
Somewhere in an Internet café, a teenager was busy playing PUBG. The screen of his mobile phone came on. However, it did not catch his attention.
…
“The summoning contract has been sent randomly to 5000 people in the world where the summoner was from…”
In the dark and damp wooden cage inside the cave, Meng Yang quietly waited for the feedback of the Summoning Pixie.
“I only have 5 summoning seats. With 5000 people, the probability of 1/1000 should be enough.”
Meng Yang had learned some information from the Summoning Pixie. The summoner summons existences from other worlds. They all required an established contract.
Like the abyssal demon summoned by the summoner before, it was necessary to indicate the price offered in the contract. The price usually included energy, spiritual power, or soul. Meng Yang knew that no one in the real world would want any of these. On the other hand, it was likely that someone would be tempted to have a chance at transmigrating.
He was very confident in the text messages that he had written. Contents aside, his main trick was the setting of the message. After the person received the text message, regardless of replying ‘Y’ to agree or ‘T’ to unsubscribe, the contract with him was considered to be signed. Then, the summoning contract will be established.
Time steadily passed. The pig-headed man outside the wooden cell rolled over in the meantime. It gave Meng Yang goosebumps all over his body.
Previously, the old man in the cell next to him said that the pig-headed man would sleep for a day when it was full. However, looking at the size of the monster, no one could guarantee that it was full. Maybe it would need supper as an extra meal.
At least, Meng Yang felt that he was still more desirable as food when compared to the old man beside him.
It was unknown how long Meng Yang waited. With only a sudden sensation of a message coming from the Summoning Pixie in his consciousness, he quickly focused his attention on the Summoning Pixie.
“This summoning contract has no response, no response, no response…”
The Summon Pixie responded.
“It can’t be! Not a single person out of the 5000 people believed it? Furthermore, not even 1 unsubscribed?”
After receiving this feedback, Meng Yang felt speechless for a moment.
Regardless of anyone believing the text message he sent, it was normal for ordinary people to unsubscribe after seeing the junk message. How could one be so lazy? The unlimited memory of the mobile phone is surely amazing, storing these spam text messages without any worries.
“It must be those casinos and fraudulent text messages that ruined the trust between people.” Meng Yang cursed in his heart. He considered the cursing equivalent to pouring a bucket of cold water to extinguish the burning sensation in his heart.
“It seems that text messaging is not popular anymore!”
Meng Yang was dejected. If no one answered his summons to rescue him, he would probably fall into the monster’s mouth tomorrow, or at most, the day after tomorrow.
A dimension traveler who could end up at this point was no other than him!
“What to do, what to do? I should summon in another way. A more secretive and more interesting way.”
Meng Yang’s brain raced quickly. Suddenly, he raised his head towards the ball of light that appeared in his consciousness. He asked, “Summoning Pixie, as long as it does not cause the original world rules to rebound, I can seal the contract and summon by any means, right?”
“Yes!”
“Then, if people summoned by me die here, will they die in the real world?” Meng Yang continued asking.
“No. As long as the summoner exists, the transient will not die, and the summoned can be resurrected at any time.”
“What happens if I die?” Meng Yang asked.
“When the summoner dies, the transient will return to the original world,” the Summoning Pixie replied.
Meng Yang slapped his head, revealing a look of sudden realization. “I was not doing it right!”
What if he could entice people here through text messages, just that he had not found the proper way to explain it yet? Using everlasting horror? Uh… it sounded like it could work.
Meng Yang felt that he found a better alternative now.
“Since the transient doesn’t die, then it is only a game, and I’m the login device.”
Meng Yang smiled enthusiastically. He had regained his spirit. Then, he shouted at the ball of light, “Come here, ball-ly, let’s change the contracting method. This time, I will definitely be able to summon people. But first, you will have to build a game website for me in the original world. The game website should be the kind that has been reviewed, and then… pop-ups, and more pop-ups. Um, let me think about the game name and the marketing!”
