1 - Invitation

The year is just starting, but something weird is happening to the world. Instead of celebrating the new year, the world has thrown itself into chaos. 

Suddenly Japan’s history records around the world are changing. It was blowing up on the news. They’re now searching all around the historic site and museum to check what was changing. But, even the records about them are continuously changing too, and no one is sure about which one is the right history.

I wonder if this has the connection to the multiverse kind of thing. Around 200 years ago, it was popular to make a story about the multiverse, and I love multiverse stories. But now the multiverse stories are long forgotten now. At one time, the trend suddenly stopped and no one is talking about it anymore, but it just popped into my head again after I watched the news. 

「We haven't found the reason for this incident yet. The authorities are currently looking for a solution towards this matter, and currently a new council is created to solve this matter. The new Government of the Time will be announced soon. We will also recruit volunteers to help us solving this matter–」

Whoa? They created a new Government already? They must have known about this for sometime by now. Or maybe the multiverse really exists? 

Are they saying they are recruiting volunteers? Oh I must look into it. 

After an hour of scrolling on the browser, I finally found it. 

That's really weird. 

Do they really need these volunteers or not? 

The article was posted this morning, by a legit government website, but I can't find it when I try to look for it directly on the website, and I only find it after searching through the search engine. 

It was on page 463. I was surprised at myself for combing through those pages. Talk about dedication. 

The page itself is quite simple.

GOVERNMENT OF THE TIME VOLUNTEER RECRUITMENT 

Due to the current occurrence we're recruiting volunteers to help us solve this matter.

Requirements : 

• No age limit

• Adjustable workload

• You can quit anytime you want to.

Request a volunteer invitation here.

Oh? Almost everyone will be able to register as a volunteer. Also they don't have any registration deadline. 

The form is quite simple, I just need to put in my name, age, email address, photo, and that’s all. That’s really simple. I guess everyone is welcome to be their volunteers. But, the volunteers can quit anytime, so I guess not everyone is staying with them. I wonder if I’ll stay as a volunteer long enough for them. I’m curious about what I need to do. 

Then again, I don't know if they'll accept my application, and I’m also not sure how they’re deciding to accept a volunteer or not. I skimmed through my application once again and then took a deep breath before clicking the “Send” button. 

We received your application, please wait a moment for your invitation. Thank you.

I exhaled and leaned back on my chair. Phew, I should talk about this with my mom– 

*DING!*
