Sebastian Jumper

Waking up in the same bed with Shizuka in their room at Winterhold College, he thought about his happiness, the girl who gave up everything for him. Shizuka Marikawa, the girl who attracted him with big tits. She was a stupid, timid, and gentle person, but... when the zombie apocalypse happened, they found themselves on the same team. Because of the flaw he chose, the zombie virus had priority on certain genetic markers that caused zombies to attack beautiful people. Shizuka, like 9/10 of people around the world, was above the level of his first-world models. Of course, it wasn't the drawback that made the world worse, it was the filling in of the jump document that chose the world worse than the original work. This world didn't get worse just from his choice. After breakfast, he left the room, going to the library. "Good morning!" said Sebastian with a smile. Orsimer nodded. "I was just as cheerful, too, until I got an ice arrow in my knee." Ignoring this habitual chatter that would fill his life, he picked up a book on the transmutation of substances. She described the transformation of ore into refined materials, skipping the purification processes and many hours and days of work. Magic was, at least, interesting. Magic was a way of operating the world. If there was a real console, it was magic that came from the very underside of the world, Etherius. Etherius was another dimension, from which the creators of this world, Magne-ge, and Aedra, originated. Magne-ge, realizing that their power is consumed to create the universe, fled back to Etherius, leaving holes in reality, from where the energy of Etherius penetrates. This was a simple way to explain the origin of Ether. This concept was known to him from Greek mythology: sunlight and upper layers of air. Simply put, electromagnetic radiation was what was called Ether in his first life. In this world, it was a natural magical energy that came with the light of the heavenly bodies. The stars and the Sun were literal White Holes leading into the multiverse. Whatever Etherius was, this space did not allow mortals into its interior. Anyone who wasn't Aedra and Daedra couldn't get inside without dying. He didn't know if the hole in Aetherius was a star or a White Hole. At best, the concept of a White Hole was questionable. The black hole was a case of mass compression, to the point that it warped spacetime. Only objects with mass could get into it, light did not penetrate inside. Despite this, there were many descriptions received both from these higher beings and the study of mortals, about the radiation of magic by the stars. Slamming the book shut, he put it back down and picked up another one. Casting spells for adepts. He was an Adept of Change, the origin of the magician gave all the spells of the student level and the spells of the adept level in one of the schools. The Adept was the main workforce of the Winterhold Collegium. Unlike the inept students still studying with the masters, the adepts conducted independent research of magic, contributing to the knowledge of this community of magicians. When you can cast master-level spells, you're a master. There was no unnecessary complexity, everyone in this place was a member of the College of Magicians, who was disliked by the whole of Skyrim. "Hush, Altmer is coming." said one of the groups of three students who saw him. Of course, there were also unloved members of this society of magicians. It was Skyrim and the members of the Winterhold Collegium didn't like Altmer. It was discrimination, Shizuka and he was considered... Dominion spies. "Did you three say something?" he looked threateningly at the students. "No, Adept Sebastian. We were just having a conversation about the School of Mysticism!" said one of the students. Looking menacingly at the students, he told them. "The school of Mysticism was expelled for political reasons. After the collapse of the meteorite, which Vivek no longer held, the Empire decided that they no longer needed the Old Ways taught by the Order of Psijics. The Order of Psijics is mainly composed of Altmers and was founded by Altmers too. Simply put, the Empire wanted to try to subdue the Altmer Dominion and recently this attempt failed. Is it clear to you, Student Sven?" "Y-yyes!" the Nord trembled under his gaze. Sebastian turned away and continued on his way. It is an extreme misconception to consider him a spy. He was a Jumper, what does he care about politics? Ten years and he will leave the world. He was a young sixty-year-old Altmer, the very end of adolescence. What kind of spy is he? It didn't matter to the Nords that he was born in Skyrim. All Altmer in the Collegium experienced some degree of discrimination because they were not members of the Altmer dominion and were an easier target. He had a Cyrodiil name and was a spy. Sure. Having stopped his superfluous thoughts, he studied the book in depth before lunch, after going to lunch. Unlike the game, the reality was not so idealized and small. The castle housed several hundred magicians, most of whom were students. After graduation, the magicians were busy researching magic and creating new spells. For the sake of magic, they did everything, including violating some prohibitions. The College of Winterhold did not prohibit Necromancy, many practiced it secretly. He had heard that there was someone within these walls who had studied Levitation, a spell forbidden to study in the Third Era. It might as well have been just drunken bragging, no one except the Synod claimed successful levitation. And even there it was done because of political power. The Empire does not allow the use of the spell. Passing through a really big open gate, his gaze stopped at the long tables. It was a bit like the long tables from Hogwarts. It saved space for everyone. Tables for several people, in the castle? No, the logistics of it are terrifying. It wasn't the 21st century and even Jarls eat at a long table. The Emperor eats at a long table. To hell with small tables. Even at the long tables, there was a hierarchy. One table was occupied by the Archmage, Masters, Experts, and outstanding Adepts. Adepts and Students were sitting at another table. There are only two long tables, for more than three hundred people. Servants should clean and set these long tables, but since this was a College of Magicians, it was the Daedra who were called. Another plus of being a magician. Shizuka saw him and waved at him. He started toward her. "Shizuka, how was your day?" he asked after kissing her. "Today I taught to put the simplest Amulet. I never thought how you could be so stupid that you wouldn't even be able to put up the simplest amulet." she snorted. "Calm down, they're not even fifty years old," he said. "Fifty is not enough for us, but they are already adults in their race, Sebastian!" she looked at him indignantly. "What can I say, the first fifty years of a man's life are the most difficult." "Pfft, whatever you say!" "A woman..." Sebastian drawled. It was hard not to laugh at her outraged expression, but he restrained himself. After Shizuka became younger biologically, she had the reactions of a young girl. It was funny. After lunch, they went about their business. Shizuka taught the students the magic of Restoration, and Sebastian continued to study Change and Enchantment. In the evening they gathered in the room that belonged to her. As a Recovery Master, she had her room and her laboratory. Status gave more than money. No matter how rich Sebastian was, the College had too much money to give him an exception. Magicians didn't care much about the gold that could be earned or found a way to transmute. Knowledge was power and status. "So now you're going to tell me why you didn't want to take our children with you?" asked Shizuka with a gloomy face. "Of course, I promised you. In my first jump, I had a son. His name was Maxim. I loved him, he was less than a year old and I wanted to show him different universes. If I had taken him with me, he would have grown up dramatically. Other people's years of experience that will be introduced to him, does it make him himself or others? I was a little over twenty before the start of the chain of jumps. When I appeared in the new world, I was almost forty years old. I didn't want such a fate for him, it's not just age, it's personality. It wouldn't have been him anymore, I didn't want it!" Sebastian shouted, breaking down. "Calm down, I understand you, dear." Shizuka hugged him and they sat hugging. It was evident on Sebastian's face that he continued to remember this without ceasing. "Tell me what happened next, it will make you feel better." "It won't get any easier. I decided to take him later, when he was twenty, like me. Ten years later I visited him, my ex-wife found a new husband. She was younger than me, twenty years old, when I was forty… Time flies terribly fast. Like almost everyone, she only needed an apartment and money. Love, at forty, does not even smell. I was cynical and I knew I wanted to leave my mark on that world. I could have died at any moment because there was a failure or something went wrong. Maxim, is it Roman or Cyrodiil? Do you think it's a Cyrodiil name, Shizuka?" Sebastian chuckled. Shizuka thought about it and doubts could be read on her face. "As I thought. You are already a hundred years old, you are used to living like an Altmer. Thirty years of experience of life on Earth, what are thirty years worth? A hundred years more than thirty. That's why I didn't want to take my son then. So, my son… Did I mention my wife? Yes, she. She married a new man, no matter what his name was. He also had a marriage and also had a child after his first marriage. Daughter, he had a daughter. He didn't have his own house, he rented. They lived in my former house. If I were twenty, I'd kill them for it. I worked for this house, paid the mortgage myself, found part-time jobs, and my wife brought a new husband there! But I was far from twenty years old and I was no longer so aggressive. At fifteen I would have tortured them. Teenagers always have dangerous thoughts..." "Sebastian, I won't betray you!" Shizuka told him, pressing his face into her ample boobs. They were sitting like this, but she didn't expect him to push her away! Her face was confused. "You almost strangled me!" "Ha ha ha! You, the Great Zombie Killer, were almost strangled with chunks of fat!" laughed Shizuka along with Sebastian. "If you don't want to, don't tell me," she told him. "I'll tell you. One day her new husband... he killed her. My son and his daughter, they started living together. They were already living in a new house, on the outskirts of the city. It was 2040, my old house was demolished and another building was already built in that place. Time is changing and old houses are already being demolished, but I did not grieve. Having a lot of money that I received after one jump, I quickly found information about what happened. It doesn't matter why he killed her anymore. I didn't love her the way I love you, I didn't care what happened to her. Most importantly, my son, he was alive. He and his daughter, they moved in together. It was funny to me, she used to try to seduce me and leave with me, and now she lives with my son. It was mercantile, just like when I got married. My son inherited the house, and his daughter... he loved her. She was his only support. When I came, he hated me and all my relatives. It broke my heart… I don't want to take the kids with me anymore. I wanted to take him with me, Maxim was my blood. I don't want to take anyone else but you."
