It's hard to be god (Patreon)

Frank knew that whatever he said to these people would sound crazy. Pulling in his hand the last thing that remained of his instructions for survival on this planet, he tried to think soberly and come up with at least some kind of salvation plan.

On this planet G-5467, Frank was one of the many researchers who arrived here on a xomic ship from Earth. Of course, like many other missions on other inhabited planets, he, as a researcher, had to pretend to be one of the people living here.

It was both difficult and not difficult at the same time. The world of this planet was very similar to the Middle Ages of the 15-16th centuries on Frank's home planet - Earth, which has long burst into the technological future and whose inhabitants have explored space, at the same time studying civilizations from other planets.

Here Frank took on the image of the Lord and pretended to just travel, at the same time studying the local culture and people. Of course, for the purpose of research, he needed to communicate with local residents by studying local culture and history.

Being cautious, Frank always tried to maintain his image of the Lord and make sure that no one suspected him of deception. But despite all the technological development of people from the planet "Earth", Frank did not know that this planet had a special energy. Locals called it "magic", although in fact it could also be described technologically if Frank and his colleagues could study it in more detail.

Frank was the first researcher to actually encounter this "magic" when the peasant daughter Zahladolina used a body and knowledge exchange spell with Frank. She had no idea that he was a space traveler and wanted the body and life of a lord.

Unfortunately for Frank, all his knowledge was lost along with his body and in his hand he only had this piece of paper with the call for help code and the locations of the escape pods. He knew that the piece of paper contained very important information, but did not know how to use it and could not even understand what kind of scribbles were written there. And poor Zakhladolina from the huge amount of strange knowledge she unexpectedly received in Frank's body simply could not stand it and went crazy.
