NOVEL NEXT Chapter 69: A Hellish Time.
(Sherly’s POV)
If I was a normal human, I would have long since lost count of how long that I’ve been in this large shark. But, since I am… or rather, was a Higher Being prior to the game starting, I know exactly how long it has been.
Which was about a week. The only reason that I haven’t starved… is because the meat of this creature is edible. That doesn’t mean that it tastes good, though…
And why did this happen to me? With the rumors of some player who had an extremely powerful guild, I was very interested. After all, their strength could easily be confirmed if you just looked at the guild section of the System.
Was I tricked? Somehow, mentions of Celia even made it to my country. Thus, I set off on a voyage to reach where I thought that she was staying at. Now, tell me, how the hell was I supposed to guess that something like this would occur?
Sherly: “…”
If I am being honest, I am not actually angry anymore. Sure, I got eaten, but that was just bad luck. Despite being a Higher Being before, I was now just a weak human. As such, I couldn’t predict, or escape, a giant shark like this, eating the ship that I was on, whole, and in just one bite…
By this point, I was honestly just bored beyond belief. I don’t have any means of escaping the inside of this shark, and I was just lucky to not end up in its stomach. With me being a human, I would have surely died from the shark’s stomach acid.
Besides that, I had nothing else to do. There wasn’t anything in the System Store that I could buy, which would help me escape, and I had no weapons to speak of. And… to think that I was actually proud of this current Status of mine…

I thought that I had made good progress, but I was a fool. But to be fair to me, how was I supposed to expect to be eaten by some giant shark? Not to mention, but this shark was actually a holy beast. Even if I could kill it, doing so would surely give me a horrible curse…
Sherly: “Well, on the bright side, I haven’t gone insane yet…” I say with a long sigh.
I said that to no one, like talking to yourself isn’t a sign of going insane. It isn’t, actually. Apparently, most people talk to themselves. But, that doesn’t mean much right now for me. As, I will not die from starvation, but I might go insane if I stay inside this shark for any longer…
