《Re: Generic Isekai - An Isekai with a loooooooooooooong title.》Chapter 15: More info dumps about the gods – God of Adobe Flash.
Advertisement
Adobi Furasshuu, the former God of Adobe Flash, was sitting in front of his giant computer with over one hundred screens and typing in lines after lines of codes. Looking at him, we would be reminded of a guy in his mid twenties, who just got out of college and now working an office job. He was wearing a white dress shirt, grey suit, blue tie and huge glasses, or in other words, the God of Flash had an appearance of a typical hard working Japanese salary man.
On the other hand, the realm where he was living in was quite strange. There was nothing there, except for a desk, a computer, and a chair to sit on. Yes, by nothing, I mean literally nothing. Not even a floor, a wall, or a ceiling was present. Totally an empty space. Not even air or any color, like the color of white in Shiro's world. His work station was basically floating in a space of void, and so did the god himself. However, if the god was concentrating hard, there would be glowing codes materialized right inside of his realm and flew around the guys really fast, creating a super cool looking spiral effect.
And about of the software that he was related to ... it’s a sad story. Just a few years in the past, Adobe Flash still dominated the internet and its god had obtained so much power that he was literally swimming in money. He was much needed and highly respected by both community of humans and gods. But now, things had changed, and it was almost over for him. Because he had made too many mistakes in dealing with internet security problems, and not to mention, the God of Html5 was way too strong, there was no way he could compete anymore. Flash was no longer mandatory if you want to browse the web, and as it would soon be gone, Furasshuu was now in a tight spot. He had to find something else to do soon, or he would be obliterated once everybody forget about the once famous Adobe's multimedia player.

Thus, as we already knew, Furasshuu then met Shiro and Kuro. They were now working on an Isekai project together, and the world they created, they named it Isekailand.
“Furasshuu, good morning,” a tiny girl magically materialized inside the former God of Flash’s realm, and greeted him with a lovely smile. But why did she say good morning even though you couldn’t tell day and night apart in that kind of place?
No idea.
The clicky click click sound of mechanical keyboard typing stopped shortly after that.
“Shiro, thank you for your payment,” said Furasshuu. “But why do you still need to come here? You know that we can just use G-mail (God mail) to communicate, right?”
“Ahhhhhh... right.” Shiro replied. “But I wanted to meet you in person this time, Furasshuu. I know that I have caused you so much trouble, and want to apologize…”
Shiro then bowed deeply. "Sumimasen... Honto ni, sumimasen deshitaaaaaaaaaa!"
“Wait wait wait wait! I can't understand of that!" Furasshuu jumped out of his own chair and shouted in confusion. "But I see... I’ve received your money, so it’s fine. I will fix the bugs as soon as possible, so no worries.”
“No… not only that… Furasshuu," said the loli goddess, still looking down. "I know that you’re mad about me…,”
“Mad? What are you talking about?” Furasshuu was confused.
“Ahhh… You were mad, because I didn’t pay you properly, so you … made the people in Isekailand ugly on ... purpose?”
That… somehow upset the former God of Flash.
“Shiro…” said the god in an angry voice.
“Y-yes?... Wait! Is it not?” Shiro was now slightly panicked.
“Of course! Just who do you think I am!?” Furasshuu shouted at Shiro angrily.
“I -I…”

“Good grief!” Furasshuu sighed. “Okay, so let me explain this to you real quick.”
“Y-yes!”
“Basically, as I didn’t have enough money, I couldn’t get the right materials to work with, so I had to work my way around. For example, the software I first used to make Isekailand was the oldest version of Isekai Maker, the Isekai Maker 2002...”
“Oooohhhh...” Shiro had no idea what Furasshuu was talking about, but still trying to follow.
“... I tried it, but as it was too outdated, it couldn’t work properly, so I had to find the later versions.”
“Hmmm... Okay, okay..." nodded Shiro. But then, she realized something. "Wait! But… you said you didn’t have money?”
“Yes. So I could only use the free trial version, which expired after 14 days.”
“What? 14 days? But then how can you still have Isekailand running?”
“Hehehehe…” somehow, Furasshuu grinned evilly.
And Shiro gasped.
“Wait! Don’t tell me…”
“Yes, yes,” nodded Furasshuu.
“Furasshuu… I’ve never thought that you have to deal with so much troubles…”
“Hehe…”
“.. because of me, you had to..."
Shiro's eyes started to become sparkling with tears.
"Ehehehe." Furasshuu scratched his head, embarrassed. "No, no, not a big deal, my friend!"
“... you had to create your own Isekai Maker from scratch!”
“Eh?”
…
“Eh?”
The twos then looked at each other for a while.
...
“No, I pirated it. The Isekai Maker MV.”
…
“Oh…”
…
“And that’s why there are so many bugs.”
...
"But like I said, no worries! I will buy the official version now. With that, we will create the most awesome world and most beautiful people ever!"
... "Oh... okay."
Shiro realized that she almost cried for nothing, so she no longer had interest in this conversation and left.
And that, my friend, was the former God of Adobe Flash.

Roulette: A Random Tale
Waking up in a strange world with amnesia? Not good. Having no access to the System or Status Screens that everyone else seems to be using? Not great. Randomly gaining powers that you have no idea how to control? Not super. Said powers changing/replacing themselves at random and inconvenient times, usually when you're just getting used to them? Not cool. Not being able to control this constant change in your powers in any way? Not awesome. People considering your random powers - that can range from completely useless to nigh godlike - to be a threat to the world as they know it? Really bad. The local ability stealing Big Bad taking an interest? Even worse. But you try. You try to make it through your life, even when things seem to be stacked up agains you. You got dealt a bad hand, but you're gonna make the best of it. Or die trying.

Sara's (not really) Fabulous System Armageddon, Book I: The World Ended at Rush Hour
Planet Earth, Monday, October 7th, 2019. 18:30 * * On a fateful day, during rush hour in eastern North America, Heavens and Hell crumbled and fell from their higher dimension on Earth. It came from "above" but not the same above we regard in our tridimensional Euclidean reasoning. No, it came from "above" as in from a higher dimension. Bits and pieces of those places fell on Earth from all directions, this time in tridimensional Euclidean space. Satellites, the ISS, and space debris all were wiped clean from orbit. Even those that didn't crash with the falling debris were knocked off orbit by the shockwaves. On the ground, power distribution lines were disrupted and most power facilities were left abandoned by their dead staff. Most of these had emergency shutdown routines that engaged in a few days. Some others had a survivor among their staff that followed protocol and activated their SCRAM switches, stopping the power plant. Long-distance communication disappeared the internet along with it. The world was plunged into technological darkness. Nine hundred and ninety-nine out of every thousand human beings perished immediately in the pulse of magical energy from the torn spatial boundary. Spirits were rent asunder and vanished, their fate neither salvation nor damnation, only oblivion. The criteria used for this culling was latent magic potential. It didn't discriminate against education, gender, age, or ethnic group. But of the around seven million survivors, most would meet their doom moments later. Those on moving vehicles, like the ones driving on highways suddenly had to contend with high-speed uncontrolled cars and trucks driven by corpses. Trapped in their vehicles and helpless, they became part of the long snake of crushed metal. Very few survived. Those in the air or out in the sea were alone and probably unable to control their rides. Airplanes crashed, and ships kept their course or drifted away, depending on their autopilot. Several ended their own lives in utter despair after seeing their loved ones die in front of them. Another large group would die at the hands of other survivors. Violence and aggression became the norm. Only a few sparse pockets of not-so-sane survivors managed to band together and cooperate for the sake of mutual survival. The sole survivor in a five-over-one apartment building in Georgia, a girl became the keystone to humanity's survival. Sara's fabulous System Apocalypse had just started. She has only one remark. It was anything but fabulous. * * Updates every Wednesday and Sunday.
