《Where is my head, Haro?!》 Chapter 1 - The beginning I''m Seth Francis Haro, my friends call me Haro. I''m a 17-year-old teenager and because my mom died when I was little, I had to live only with my dad. "Walking to the way to the Roosevelt Franklin School" I promised him a few years ago that when I will grow, I will make him and my late mom proud. Making right at the corner. Grandpa said that after my mom died, dad went through a lot of depression and never looked for someone else but when he looks into my blue eyes, he sees mom and that''s why he works so hard for me to become someone, I won''t let him down. ... I raise my head. ... I thought... Suddenly stopped with a shocked face. I thought that I am on the right road but I never imagine that my lover, Aleesha Ria Zhang would betray me with one of my best friends... Aleesha Ria Zhang is kissing Roland Chen in the middle of the street! She notices me and sends an evil smile. "No, this isn''t right... why?!"Speaking with a low voice My hands are shaking and I can''t see anymore. I''m not a bad looking guy and I gave her all I had. I could say that I''m more handsome than this guy but why is it happening this to me? We never fight and she seems very happy yesterday. No, this can''t end like this. I need answers! I cross the street with tears in my eyes... It is a sunny day, I can hear birds and people coming by but wait.. what was I doing a moment ago? Why I can''t remember? What''s is this sense of warmth that constantly encompasses me? I think... I remember... I was crossing the street and suddenly... "Forced brakes sounds" Ah, yes. I think I''m gonna die. I''m so sorry father, I won''t be able to keep my promise. I will visit mom soon. I see people surrounding me with a blurry-red vision. I can''t breathe.All become black. 3 HOURS LATTER, Toykawa Hospital In the meanwhile in front of the entrance to the operating room: "It''s my son. I want to see him now!" "You can''t, Mr. Masaki. He suffered grave injuries and the doctors are in operation. I promise that we will do whatever we can to save your sons life." "Please, please... I will give you everything I have, just save my son.." "Calm down Mr. Masaki, we don''t need anything. It''s our job." Hm?! What happened? Where am I? I feel nothing. I see nothing. Only darkness.The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement. I tried to move, but nothing happened. I couldn''t see or feel and the feeling of frustration and hopelessness was pushing me continually. Is this what happens when you die? Anything we learned about was a lie? "A mechanism is activating" What''s this sound? In a second see myself surrounded by many multicolored lights which seem to draw a kind of pattern, but which disappears behind them very quickly. "Starting systems for subject $%$%#@&*$^. Please wait." Wtf? "3... 2... 1... The system started successfully." "Hello, Master!" "Hey, who are you? What''s this? Why are you calling me master?" "Master, I am %$#%^&&&#@@#^@% $%@ and you''re my master. I am here to guide you to your next life and help you through your adventures." "Here is the soul void. Here, are all the lost souls who had a tragic and unfair death due to unexpected errors." "I want to go back! My father is waiting for me, I have to!" "Master, judging from your soul aura, you''re being here for approximately 2.13 billion earth years. The planet which is called Earth is long gone." The feeling of hopelessness felt heavier than anything I felt in my entire life. Nothing could compare to this. I remained silent a long time after I heard that. After a while... "Master? are you alright?" I was silent on the outside, but inside... "The expression of my ex-girlfriend appears in my mind" You fucking bitch. I'' gonna kill you, I swear I''m gonna kill you no matter what. Ahhhhhhhhh!!!! I''m gonna kill you! I''m gonna kill you! I''m gonna kill you! I''m gonna kill you! I''m gonna kill you! I''m gonna kill you! I''m gonna kill you! I''m gonna kill you! I''m gonna kill you! My soul begins to react strangely, getting bigger, changing its color and taking strange shape then going to the initial state and so on. The system saw the unnatural phenomena and tried to stop it. My mind was black, hatred flowed through me. "Overload detected! Damage detected! Commencing Auto-Repair!" "3... 2... 1... ERROR" "Critique damage detected! Commencing Auto-Reboot!" "3... 2... 1... Success!" "Commencing Auto-Repair!" "3... 2... 1... Success! Critique damage stabilizing!" The shape and color begin to take its original form. "Master, I detected a strange aura within your soul. I suspect that this place multiply every feeling you may have and I''m afraid that you will lose your consciousness and become something else. I highly recommend for you to proceed with the steps needed to go to another world." "I understand, let''s begin." "Understood! I will let you choose your kind of world you would like to reborn, as well as what skills you would like to born with." In front of me appears a big window like one I''ve seen in the games I played before. Within this window appear the title " CHOOSE A WORLD" and below n earth-like worlds ready to be chosen. "So I must choose one from these?" asking politely "Yes, master! You can choose whatever world you like. For example, you can choose a demon world where people fight for their freedom and many of them die or a world where is peace everywhere and no one needs to work to live happily. There are many more than you could imagine." The second world seem to be my kind of world, living happily without working...niceee but no! I mean, the reason why I love to be lazy is that rarely I had the chance to do so. If I were to be lazy every day I would get very bored. Since I have so many options I better think more about it. What if... "System! Is there a world like I saw in anime with many kinds of species and with magic? I would like to go to one of them." "Yes, Master! There are a few worlds that correspond to your request. I will list them for you. Please wait." The worlds in the window are sliding so fast that I can''t see anymore their shape and color. The sliding stopped. "Here, Master! You may choose from these." I look at a few of them and then I pick one. "Now, please choose 3 skills that you want to be born with. There are endless possibilities to choose from. There are a few things master can''t ask as the ability to go back in your original world, immortality or the ability to surpass $%$##%^#%@#$#@$ ." "System, I observed that you want to say something like this a while ago but I can''t hear or rather understand what you are saying. Why?" "System has not enough authority." That''s strange... "Ok, I understand." What should I ask for? I need to think carefully because what I choose now will change everything. "I want a skill that would let me became strong very fast." "Granted! You have 2 more options." Well, with that skill I could become strong by doing something.. if I go there and I''m already strong, I will get bored after a while. Not worth it. "I want a skill that would let me learn very fast anything I want." "Granted! You have one more option." So, I will become stronger and I will be able to develop my knowledge, what else? Hmm... "I want to be able to infuse in items different attributes as well as modifies its characteristics" "Granted! Now we will proceed to the next step." Chapter 2 - Reborn
It''s getting bigger? No, no, in fact, I''m getting closer to it. The anxiety has caught fire inside my body making me cry out of fear of the unknown.
I''m reborn.. I can''t believe my eyes. My mom is soo beautiful and young, her hair is long and since I didn''t meet my first mother this makes me so happy. I''m looking forward to knowing you better, mother!
Is this man my father? He looks strong.
You have gained a new skill!

Geniue that let me learn anything very fast, it took just 2 seconds to understand how the "Fast Teleport" works. I look at the magic stone to activate the skill, my heart sends a shock and from the tips of my little fingers, lightning flashes appear creating a magic circle large as the size of my father''s palm that rotates like a clockwork, with many inscriptions and drawings on it.

The title "Little Survivor" was obtained.
Hm, fair enough. Now if I think better, I did not check my skills till now... the reason being that I don''t want my parent to see their 4-month-old child with a window game-like floating everywhere he turns his head.
Since when the system can read my mind?
Ok then, let me check the skills right now.

Chapter 3 - No comeback One hour before the phone call Half an hour before the phone call Few days after the accident Chapter 4 - I dont like bangee jumping
Something feels wrong. A moment ago I was home and now I''m here. Here where?!
Look at this, what fool would go to the left? Me not. Damnn, I want home.
Let''s hurry.
So if this is how it''s supposed to be... I will use them.
This feels strange. How can I be here and at the same time be there...
Wait a moment. This "me" starts approaching to the other "me" standing on the water road. But I''m not in control of it.
The head of my body that stands on the waterway turns slightly towards the other "me" with pupils of eyes dilated.
Don''t tell me that I''m looking at me from the perspective os someone or something else?
Oh my... it was a nightmare. But that felt so real.
Safe! Uh...
It is 5 AM and my mom is gone as usual at the sick or injured people in the village to watch over them. She learned to make low-grade medicine with common plants from her grandfather and can also use healing magic.
She is most of the time home when I wake up and I can''t go to check the books in the library because my parents don''t let "play with them" and I can neither let them know that I have the intelligence of a 17-years-old kid.
From what I''ve seen here, people who have over 15-years-old are considered adults.
We have a small house, in fact, all the people in this village have.
I saw the conditions of the people in this village when my mom took me to the village center to buy food and some houses have big holes in the roof some don''t have doors. Lucky, the old woman Helha who almost blown us up, enchanted a few magic stones and placed them around the village. In this way, everyone is safe from the beasts the only threat being thieves.
Dad is a busy man, he works all day. Seriously, when he leaves for work, I''m sleeping because It''s morning and when he returns I''m sleeping because It''s very late.
Today I think, the hunting party was assembled. When this happens, dad goes for hunting the magic beasts around the village. I thought he was free today but I guess that''s not the case, hehe!
The space between the steps of the library ladder is too large. I can''t climb.
System, help me take that book!
"Searching for the best option... Master could use the Fast Teleport skill."
Thank you, system!
My son can use magic, I can''t believe my eyes! That is not a common spell either, It must be at least 4th tier magic spell.
What should I do, its extremely rare for such a talent to be born?
He grabs his head with his hands.
"What do I think about? He is just a kid! No, not even a kid, he is a baby of 3 years and 6 months!!!"
Ahhh I need more time to rest "sobs". This job is sucking all my time and my life.
It''s dad.
Wait, why are you home? I said surprised
Shouldn''t you have something to do... like hunting?
Chapter 5 - If you have a head, use it I don''t know if it''s good that my parents know now what I''m capable of because after that day, they fight almost every day what should I learn first, magic or self-defense using bare hands. So they split my time in two, the first part of the day mother was teaching me the basics of magic because I was rested and after that, "to clear my mind" dad''s words, I was practicing with him in the garden behind the house.
It''s hard, but since I know how strong I will become, this makes me even more excited. This is the life I wanted to have back then, in my original world... everything seemed to be ok but that bitch used me! clenching the fists
Oh, how much I hate her!!! I will never forget.
This time, I will go with dad outside the village. I''ve never been there so I''m pretty excited. Chapter 6 - Be careful what you wish for
I feel prepared for my first adventure. System, open the screen.
Yes, Master!

I''ve got 2 new skills while learning magic with mom and also a title when I was practicing with dad. Well, it''s not like I was lacking skills but having learned these makes my mom happy thinking that I can protect myself if something happens.
My dad promised to take me too since the beasts were all killed in this zone. We should be safe.
Hehe, dad can''t resist me when I''m calling him like that...
Fuck, you scared the shit out of me.
A great moment to get an update.
Wait, why are people running? I asked myself
I don''t remember to see those traces when I was passing by.
I hope my dad will be fine. There are a lot of people lying here and most of them are guardians.
By the way, how much time is needed for the System to finish its update?
What the fuck is happening here?????
I have to get home and inform mom.... I will use the teleport skill.
By the " Any function of the System will now be stopped until the update is finished." you mean that I can''t use magic till the update is done???
Chapter 7 - A dream I cant wake up from Fuck!.. Fuck!.. Fuck!.. Fuck!.. He starts running towards home through the blizzard. His eyes were full of tears so he used his sleeves to remove them but the tears wouldn''t stop and blur his vision. Uhh... uhh... uh... I''m getting exhausted, will I make it on time?! Stop thinking nonsense! There''s no way for my parents to be harmed. Not yet. It must be some thieves behind this. The enchanted magic stones are verified once in a while so the magic beasts can''t bypass them. Looking back. The screams seem to be from the left side of the village near the gates so their attack has just begun. I will make it! Let''s see if the update made progress. I will have to use my magic soon. The game-like window appears. Now updating. Updating progress... 97% Please wait... Pretty close! In the meanwhile on the other side of the village, the fire spread fast. On the snow, dozens of human corpses were lying. The shadows of the invaders could be seen extending from the ground to the remaining walls, because of the light coming from the fire, mutilating every guardian, woman, child or dog. "Kids crying" "Blade sounds penetrating the body" "Mordurers, why are you attacking the village??" said a guardian "Kill them all, save the village!" said a villager A few moments later, the place became quiet. "Wind blowing" From the painted snow, the vapor rose to the sky, mixed with smoke and mist. At the Whyte family''s house, a figure entered the front door, with an ax in the left arm, with a large blade which people usually used to cut trees, and climbed upstairs hitting the border of each staircase that goes, with the metal head of the ax. After climbing the stairs, its arms extend to the door lock nearby and open it. Nothing inside. The figure whose looks seem humanoid at first sight starts walking in the darkness of the house towards the next door at the end of the corridor having its arms extend forward 3 meters longer than before. From its open mouth that makes a breath sound once in a while, saliva flows down mixed with something that looks like blood just that it''s black. When the creature''s hands reach the door, he tries to open it by rotating the lock.Unauthorized use of content: if you find this story on Amazon, report the violation. The door is locked. The creature''s body reaches the door, retracting its hands and start making holes with the axe trying to break through it. "The sound of a door that opens violently" I see traces leading to the first floor. "Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry!!!" With every second passed by, with each step of the ladder, I saw in my mind some of the most precious moments of my life since I''ve been reborn. I saw the moment when I''ve been born and saw my parents face. "The door is opening" Two figure enters. "How do you feel, Ann?" Ask with an old voice. Mom''s figure seems a little surprised. "Rewis dear, who is this old woman and why are you here?" " I came to see my son, why wouldn''t I came?" He said. "Yes, I know but you supposed to be on guard right now... If the other guards find out..." "Don''t worry, they gave me... (...) "Our boy wants to say something, my dear." said father "He just born and yet, he can''t wait to grow. He is our light. We shall name him Masuda Shig (= shining), (Whyte) is the family name." I saw the moment when ... "Sound of footsteps" I get scared when I feel something grabbing me from my waist. It''s dad. Wait, why are you home? I said surprised Shouldn''t you have something to do... like hunting? He takes me in his arms and carries me around with a happy face thinking about the talent that I have then suddenly stopped as if he realizes something. We are currently on the other side of the room on the window-side where the sun poop-up among the branches of flowering trees sending dozens of little yellow, red and orange rays through the window. My dad grabs me again from his chest rising me up towards the window and say with a serious face: "Hey, kid. Your father won''t let you down! " And when ... My mom stayed with me every night till I fell asleep and every night she would tell me a new story, this story would be about the gods of this world... She pulls my hair from my forehead and kisses me before I fall asleep. "Mommy, please tell me a story so I can sleep." "Okay my darling, but this is a sad story." "It''s ok, I want to know it." "There was once 9 Gods. All of them ruled over these lands and every one of them had daughters and sons. When the time had come for their children to get married, every God wanted the best for their child''s future so they had chosen the pair without thinking one second about the child''s desire. The 9th God got pissed when his only child had no one to marry with so he asked the other Gods to reconsider but without luck. When the ceremony day came, one of the brides was missing. She was in love with the boy who was left without a bride so she took him and run away. When the other Gods found out, they blamed the 9th God and fought to kill him. With the last breath, the 9th God cursed all the children of Gods to have ugly kids. After dying, the other Gods became very angry so they found his child and sealed him deep in the ground deep caves where he may not see the sunrise ever and killed the fugitive bride because she violated the tradition. A long time after that, the kids became man and woman and they had kids. The Gods became stupefied when they saw the ugliness of their nephews, one was green with excess skin as if it was fatty and lost the fat and had ugly teeth, one was black with ears longer than their head and with sharp faces and one was white with the same characteristics, one had a tail and cat ears and looked exactly like a chicken hatched from the egg too early while other kids were more like beasts than humans ( a lot of hair, other without limbs and so on) so they decided to use magic to try to repair and make somehow look more beautiful or normal at least and blessed them to be proficient in magic. When the 8th Gods died, their sons inherited their power and because they felt ashamed of the ugliness of their children, they left them here alone and left these lands not looking back ever again. Over time, they evolved and became what we know now: Orcs, Ogre, Dark Elfs, Elfs, Reptiles, Dragons, Demi-Humans ( with tails and ears ), Humans and many more that are more beautiful or more ugly than what they were before. All children were at the beginning proficient in magic and could use high spells because they had a great capacity of mana behind their mana gates but that became rarer and rarer with each generation. So because of that, those who have a big capacity of mana they devote themselves to learn and fight as Sorcerer, Warlock, Wizard, Bard, Cleric, Druid. Those who do not have a big capacity of the mana devote themselves to the order of knight and use fighting skills that develop over time and become: Swordsman, Lancer, Archer, Assasin or Paladin. There are limited spells that are not related to a specific class of magic user but once someone decides a class, he can''t go back because every class has a different way of learning that can take years and no one can use the Druid''s spell if he has another class. Switching classes means learning the new class from 0." "So I want my little boy to remember this story in the future. Now get some sleep! I love you!" "I love you too!" I saw it all, I saw it and I couldn''t stop thinking about what I would find in my mom''s bedroom. I was running with my little feet, I was running but I was feeling like something bad awaits me in the darkness of that room. My arms and feet were trembling, the sweat was flowing from my hair as if I was bathing and the beats of the heart were so strong that it seemed as if the heart wanted to get out of my chest. "SYSTEM SHOW ME!!!" The window appears. Now updating... Updating progress... 98% Please wait... Please hurry... please!!! When I almost reach my mom''s room, I see that the door was shred to pieces. A creature was standing right there, at the end of mom''s bed. It wears dad''s clothes, b-but its not him. The creature has a human shape with gray flesh, little hair on the head, seems unstable on the feet, totally black eyes and a very wide mouth with missing teeth. No matter how you look at it, it''s some kind of zombie. On the window on the wall on the right side of the bed, the light of the flames from the neighboring houses is reflected. The same light as the one that''s reflected in my mom''s room. She is still in bed, still alive. Mom was awake, looking stunned. The fear trembles every single part of her body. The zombie raises the axe to kill her. Somewhere, in a distant place, someone was looking through a magical globe. One was sitting on a throne with the magical globe in his hands. "Poor creatures, what a massacre!" said someone "Hm... indeed. They never expected this, I''m sure." said the one sitting on the throne "Those things shouldn''t exist in our world. These must be his doing..." "Keep your mouth shut! We don''t want to get his attention, not now or ever." "I''m sorry, Your Highness!" gets down on one knee and bends the head Both of them look at the globe which shows different views of the massacre. "It seems like no one will escape alive, not if we don''t help them." "I don''t want to put my people in danger for some lowly life forms. They must have angered you-know-who and this is the price that they will have to pay." The magic globe captures the image of a child running not too far behind a "zombie". "Please, Your Highness! Please have mercy." bends his head to the floor "Sound of big doors opening" Two persons that seem to be royal guards open the huge doors of the throne room while another person dressed in servant clothes entrees in a hurry. The attention is directed to the servant. "Your Highness!" bends with respect "What is it?" shows curiosity Chapter 8 - Following the course of our destiny The zombie raises the axe to kill her. "SYSTEMM!!" I scream, feeling useless The window appears. Now updating... Updating progress... 99% Please wait... The zombie notices me rotating its 180 degrees. "M-mom, are you ok?" looking frightened Until a while ago, in her eyes, despair was read but now they began to get the color of life. She focuses her eyes on me and although she was petrified by fear, seeing me, a greater fear began to bloom deep in her heart. Fear of losing me. I take a piece from the broken door and I throw at the zombie. He walks towards me with the intention of the kill. "Take cover!" she shouts She stands up on the bed pointing her both arms towards the creature and concentrates her mana. "Dragon''s Breath!" Her arms start glowing and then 3 magic circles appear from the elbow to the wrist and from the fingers, a bright mixture of yellow-red-orange flame starts gazing heat. ... .. . A powerful jet of cylindrical flames bursts from Mom''s palms making a hole through the wall of the opposite room with the creature. At the same time, I jump out of the way to not get hurt. She comes out and hugs me crying. "Shin... my angel... you came to mom? You came to save mom?" "I''m so happy you''re alive, mom! I''m so happy!" crying She hugged me so hard, that I almost couldn''t breathe. "Mom, the village isn''t safe, we must hide somewhere." "Sound of wood pieces falling on the " We both look back. The monster walks towards us with the ax in his left hand, not being too hurt from the attack sent earlier. Mom takes my hand and we run outside. "Wind blowing" The wind blows with force and the heavy snow makes visibility difficult. The cold was easily passing through the thin clothes. They were caught. Both of them had no place to hide in the village and to leave the village meant inevitable death by freezing or being killed by strong monsters. Mom decides for us to go to the village barrack where it''s supposed to be my father and other guardians. Passing by the village center we saw death. Dozens of human corpses were lying on the ground almost covered by a thin layer of red snow. Swords, knives, pitchforks, and axes were dropped everywhere. Mom approaches a dead man whose sword lies next to him, she bends over, looking at the fallen body with fear and get the sword knowing that she can''t use any spell because she used all her mana by attacking the zombie from our house. "Footsteps on the snow" From every dark corner, some figures appear. We are surrounded. "I will protect you, Shin. Don''t worry. Just stay by my side." said mom looking at me trying so hard to smile while crying I''m not stupid. I know the outcome of this. "I will, mom!" smile back She drags me by her side with the left hand while taking the sword in attack position with the right hand. Her tears were falling from the cheeks to the snow and her lips were trembling so I tried my best to remain calm. The only chance of mine was to make time for the System to update. The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. When the update is finished I will be able to use magic and save us. Our problem is that I don''t know the remaining time for the update to be finished neither if we can keep us alive until then. The zombies are approaching fast from all directions, having different weapons with them. "In the honor of this village I, Mrs. Whyte Ann will fight with you!" she screams having a serious look on her face The zombie movements are slow but strong, with precision and they are also tough and can regenerate every time if you don''t hit them in the head. Her sword skills are not bad, but she''s pushed back by the huge number of zombies. We see an opening and she makes a sign for me to advance. She tries to follow but her left leg is grabbed by a dead body who seems to be resurrected and falls on the ground hitting her knee very badly by a rock. I stop at a few meters from her and I look back. She was lying on her back with her left hand pointed towards me while a zombie is stabbing her multiple times in her chest with a spear. "R-r-ru-run!" her last words Her body trembled visibly after every stab until it became a lifeless body and beautiful colored eyes became gray. "MOMM!" running towards her A window suddenly appears. System update complete! Rebooting... 3... 2... 1... Success! "The System has detected multiple dangerous entities." "Master''s mind is unclear. Proceeding to autopilot." 3... 2... 1... Success! All my senses go blank and fall on the snow and I lose my consciousness. The young Shig''s body starts floating going up to 3 meters in a transparent energy bubble on which it is displayed the animation process of combining pieces from hundreds of different magic circles to create a specific magic spell. Some of the magic circles had demonic characters and some not. "Scanning life forms..." sending at 5 meters in the air a bullet of energy that explodes in three energy waves that extend in all directions "Success! 362 dangerous entities and 0 humans found." "Proceeding extermination!" The bubble displays another combination. Dozens of demonic magic circles appear one after another and disassemble, then the dismantled parts combine forcefully, causing many sparks to jump after blending while the rest of the unneeded piece of demonic circles lose their glow becoming as if they were written in black ink and then they disappear as if the magic circle and all the demonic characters were painted on the water, and eventually it was mixed with it losing its composition. "A demonic voice could be heard." The system''s voice is changed in a demonic way when it calls the magic spell. " ¦× ¦×????????????????????? ????????????????????????????????¦×??? ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ??????????????????????????????????????????G???????????????????????????????????t????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ???????????????????????????????????????????????f??????????????????????????? ??????????????????????????????????????H???????????????????????????e??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????? ??????????????????¦×????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????????????????? " Red bolts of lightning struck the surroundings. 20 meters in front of the young Shin a door made of stone with demonic letters engraved on it came out of the ground destroying everything in its way. On the left and right side of the giant door, two statues were positioned. Both 3.5 meters high with human form only dog ??head similar to Egyptian gods from the hero''s original world. The door opens a little and a ghostly smoke comes out of that crack along with a bleeding light. The ghostly smoke extends into every house, elbow, hole in the ground no matter how small it is, surrounding the snowy ground of the village with an unusual speed compared to normal smoke. Rocks, pieces of wood and weapons were thrown towards the young Shin by the zombies. Around the bubble, a protective shield appears in front of each attack, counteracts it and then disappears. This shield is made up of a double circle with a star with five corners inside it and characters are drawn in the space of each corner. A 3-leaf clover that meant luck, a dragon that meant power, a tree with extended roots that meant prosperity, a broken metal heart with a flower that was bloomed from the crack that meant regeneration and the fifth drawing was not in its corner, but it is in the middle of the pentagram, a shield that appears to be made of metal waves which means defense. Each attack was useless. Finally, from the ghostly smoke, some arms like a demon come out with black wet skin, claws, scales or little wings like the fish has, catching all zombies from all parts of their body dragging them closer to the opening of the door. When they get closer enough, the zombie bodies break down and are sucked through the door crack leaving nothing behind. The crack of the door closes sucking up all the smoke, dead bodies, weapons, houses and everything else that the smoke made contact with, then it sinks into the ground as if it were water causing the soil to shake. "Scanning..." a bullet of energy is sent in the air exploding again. Three energy waves were created. "Success! 362 dangerous entities exterminated!" The bubble displays a warning. "Mana is in decline!" "Master''s mana is very low. Changing to economy mode." Shig''s body gradually decreases in altitude until it reaches the ground unharmed. The Iron River Village is destroyed. After the door disappeared, the only thing seen in 4km was Shin''s unconscious body. Not even the snow escaped, being sucked in after making contact with the ghostly smoke. He spends a few hours lying there. Inside his mind, he is crouched drifting into a dark abyss seeing moment''s from his past life. Moments with his former father, the things that he promised to do... to make him proud, the personal sacrifices he had to make in order to create a future, moments of his former girlfriend spending time alone and kissing after she promised to be always there for him, the moment of betrayal and the moment making important decisions before coming in this world. The fire of hatred in his heart ignites causing his blood to boil. His body burns so hard that the soil around him dries and his clothes together, which gradually turn yellow and crumble. "A high tier magic spell is detected!" Not too far from Shig''s body, sparks are colliding from all directions in one point in the air but close to the soil making a hole and then increases its size of 2 meters high by 3 wide forming the magic gate. Chapter 9 - Unknow domain Diocensse, the world where humans, dark/white elves, orcs, ogres, demi-humans, (...) lived together peacefully till 500 years ago when The Great War started. That was was not for defending the weakest but a war for the possessions and territories, a war that humans started by giving false information, fooling those who trusted them. Before there were only one kingdom and the human race wanted it all. They''ve lost so much, they''ve lost their homes, lands and many of them were enslaved and many were killed. The remaining ones of this race had to hide in the woods for a long time until they''ve become strong enough to recover some of the lost lands that with some time before the war began, was prosperous and gave the people hope through its beauty. But now, It is just a cemetery of the great fallen soldiers who fell in the fight with the supreme enemy, the human race. The only chance for this race to survive was the creation of a new kingdom and many followed their example. Thus, the five kingdoms were formed. Kingdom of Narkira (human kingdom) in the west at the border with Dierzan (demi-humans, orcs, ogres, etc) in the northeast and Kingdom of Elerinelo (elves, spirits, golems, etc) in the southeast, Ului and Aethir being positioned in the south and even if they are the smallest they are considered the most dangerous because of the entities living there. Deep in their heart, they knew that not all people wanted this, they knew and yet they lived with hatred that didn''t seem to fade. Two persons that seem to be royal guards open the huge doors of the throne room while another person dressed in servant clothes entrees in a hurry. The attention is directed to the servant. "Your Highness!" bends with respect "What is it?" shows curiosity "Princess Saphielle Naeyra requests an audience with her father, Your Highness!" sais the elf servant "She may come!" and make a sign with his hand letting the servant know that she''s free to leave The servant leaves the throne room and the Princess Saphielle enters while the magic globe still shows the images from the Iron River Village witch is almost done for. She arrives in front of his father and the royal adviser on the right, making a bow worthy of a princess. "It''s nice to see you, father!" "What brings you here, my daughter? You visit me here only when you need something. What is it?" She notices the magic globe. "Father, may I ask what are you looking at?" looking curious He glares at the magic globe and then at his advisor who looks back at him and shakes his head very slow as a sign of approval. After that, he takes his left hand from the magic globe and puts it on the mouth coughing, trying to make time to find his words. "Since this winter is so long, I asked Sir Daren to find the cause. And I was right when I thought that this winter was not something natural." "What do you mean, father?" climb the steps to her father who sits on the throneStolen story; please report. She looks right into the magic globe who displays the battlefield and the remaining people alive who struggles to survive. She remains silent. "After making some researches, I found that some kind of super high tier magic spell is the core of this problem and I sent some people to go to some specific coordinates in the south of Narkira Kingdom where they found that a mystic creature appeared recently." He pushes his glasses on his nose "So the creature has the power to change the weather?" she asks "Not really, our scouts said that the creature was very agile so they didn''t see how she looks like but they felt its aura and it wasn''t that strong to be able to use this kind of spell. What we know is that this creature might be the cause of the massacre in this human village." looking in her eyes "Please Saphielle, leave us for now. We have something important to talk about!" said King Theodas trying to change the subject She looks again at the magic globe seeing a little boy with his mom being followed by the evil creatures, and then she turns her eyes at her father. "I want to save him and his mother! We can''t just watch how innocent living beings are massacred, please..." "It''s a human, they deserve it for what they''ve done to us." trying to avoid eye contact by looking at the big doors behind her "I won''t help some traitors. This is my last decision!" he leaves the throne room to do some other things In the throne room, the princess and the royal advisor stare at each other. She curls, then bend her head and looks at the floor, turns around and stares at the advisor again. Daren followed her with his eyes trying to not laugh at this moment of her strange behavior because he can''t predict her reactions. "Say something, help me!" she bends slightly holding her hands on the sides of the dress "Cough, cough... Princess, with all the respect, even if I''d want to help the poor creatures, I can''t because It''s not up to me." "Ughh, fine!" she leaves the throne room angry "The big doors are closing" "Uhh..." I thought that I will get myself killed under her pressure. Why does she want to help this boy? Does she need a pet soo badly? breathe while placing his hand on his chest When exiting the throne room, four royal guards whose armor is made of a material stronger and lighter than the metal, with many sharp edges pointing downwards giving the impression that it wears garments made from leaves covering 90% of the body, the chest plate having the emblem of the elves (a tree whose branches surround a half-moon) drawn with a bright yellow, the same color with which each edge of each piece of armor is made, get in the position ( going in rows of two guards ) and escort the princess following her from a close distance. "Guards walking sound" "Psst, Jayphu!" sais the right rear guard to the front left guard "What''s the matter, Aleiuudaj?" looking back slightly "Isn''t our princess adorable? I don''t why she is upset right now but this makes her even cuter!!! Haha-" "Don''t speak so loud, she will hear you!" "Just look at her, look at her ears. They turn red at the peaks when she''s upset, it''s so easy to read her emotions and her reactions are a blessing for a man''s heart. Don''t you approve me, guys?" looking at the other two royal guards "Don''t ask me... " said Ayas, the left rear guard "I agree!" said Aimar, the right front guard The princess Saphielle Naeyra stops. The royal guards froze and the two talkative guards swallow their saliva. "Gou, cou- gh." she pretends to cough She starts walking further ears becoming totally red. How dare they make me... make me blush in a moment like this. So insensible, "Don''t ask me..." (sais Ayas), so rude... I hate men! At the small table, three elders gather together with the current king who has just arrived. The king sits on his chair and gives the globe to a servant who, in his turn, places the magic globe on a golden stand, adorned with precious stones of all colors that look very much like a goblet that is positioned in the middle of the round table. The room where the four are located "Chandelier Room" is quite small in length and width but very high, so high that the candelabrum with candles hanging with a chain above the table can not light up to the ceiling. The room is also very isolated, the walls being made of brick on the outside with 2 layers of wool and a wooden wall on the inside so that the precious information does not leak. "I''m sorry to make you come here in a hurry, but this can''t wait for long." Said the king looking at everyone "We don''t mind." sais Reluvethel "Yes, this is our job, after all, to help you take difficult decisions." sais Rhalyf The magic globe starts shining, then it shows the "cemetery". Corpses lying on the ground, hundreds of zombies marching through the streets, a kid alongside his parent being surrounded. "So this is why you made us come here in such a hurry?" reply Delsaran showing contempt "I see that our king forgot that the humans destroyed peace between the races, killed and raped our daughters, granddaughters, separated the families and banished us from our land that I lived for years. I heard that many of ours are kidnapped to be sold as slaves by humans, and what is our king doing? Save humans? What a shame!" said Reluvethel looking angry at the king A strong light came out from the globe that illuminates for a second all the room and gets the attention of all. In the image that the magic globe shows it can be seen that the boy is now floating and the ground trembles. All remain amazed, with their mouths open and Reluvethel starts sweating. "Wow what a powerful kid, to be able to levitate at this age. We should help him!" said Reluvethel sweating and trying to smile at the king "What are you talking about?" sais Delsaran amazed of the sudden change of his opinion "We should vote this." sais the king "Even if we vote to go, the gate might be open too late for us to save anyone. It will take some time because none of our great magicians have any memory of that place so we''ll have to wait." sais Rhalyf "We should try!" responds fast Reluvethel "Who wants to vote for, rise a hand!" sais the king Reluvethel, Rhalyf and the king raise their hands. "Thanks for your collaboration!" said the king as he gets up from his chair and goes to meet his royal advisor Reluvethel, Rhalyf, and Delsaran leave "Chandelier Room" soon after the king and Rhalyf noticing also the sudden change of opinion of Reluvethel, stops him near the palace exit by placing a hand on his left shoulder. "Reluvethel, we are friends, aren''t we?" "Yes, of course, we are good friends. Why are you asking me this?" looking concerned "What happened to you back there? Everyone knows you to be stubborn and no one hates the human race more than you do so why have you changed your mind so fast?" "Ah, it''s nothing! Don''t worry." smiles as he part ways with Rhalyf A few minutes earlier... The magic globe starts shining, then it shows the "cemetery". Corpses lying on the ground, hundreds of zombies marching through the streets, a kid alongside his parent being surrounded. This fool, after all the suffering he wants us to help some worms. Even he does not say it loud, he wants to help them... this is the reason for this meeting and the reason of creating this council... he can''t just give the order alone because he would get all the negative thoughts of everyone so he uses us to have an excuse. "So this is why you made us come here in such a hurry?" reply Delsaran showing contempt I won''t play in his hand anymore. You want others to decide for you? I will happily help you. The globe starts shining. Reluvethel covers his face with his arm and looks sightly up. What are those??? Near the ceiling, some silhouettes dressed in black with are hanging by ropes in an attacking position standing upside down. They pull out their daggers. The light goes down while Reluvethel makes eye contact with the king who sends him a little smile as a warning. Chapter 10 - Hell and Heaven
The boy''s gate was damaged due to the sudden use of a huge quantity of mana that had to remain sealed until his body would grow. thinks Iris while spinning around the boy
Chapter 11 - The Garden of Memoir It is my fourth morning in Aeris and I still don''t remember anything about my name, my parents, where I come from and why I am here. No one told me. I only heard whispers, many of them and I don''t know what should I believe. "Many guards walking in this way" They stop in front of my room''s door. "Knock, knock" "Human, get ready to meet the King! We will wait for you here." said one of them I was already dressed and practice walking and some basic manners. "Yes, Sir.!" Going outside I see 4 guards staring at me but without expressing any emotion. They are sure looking down on me, like the other elves I met. "This way!" he says guiding me On the way to the throne room, I realize that there are no more elves around, other than those who accompany me, four guards and Royal Adviser with who I met near the Throne Room. The hallways are nearly empty, those who are around the servants. Two guards open the doors and we enter. Wow! So beautiful! The Throne Room, an extremely tall room with large windows on the white wall on the right, with gigantic carved pillars representing warrior elves, with patterns of flowers and leaves made of gold on the left wall, with a huge gold chandelier that could crush three-quarters of the elves standing here. To the right side of the room are the nobles, so many that they occupy 5 meters wide and 40 lengths from the middle of the throne room and up to the steps leading to the throne. On the left side are the knights some guards and behind them, some of the servants. All of them look back when we enter. The King was sitting on the throne with his daughter beside him. We reach in front of the little stairs, the 4th guards line up on the left side of the room, I bow and Sir. Daren introduces me. "Your Majesty, this is the human we rescued." as I bowed "Sir, this is the King of Elerinelo, one of the 4th great Kingdoms of this world and the person next to his is Princess Saphielle Naeyra, his Majesty''s daughter." said Daren "Whispers" The Throne Room gets agitated, the elves whisper about Sir. Daren calling me "Sir".Stolen content alert: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences. "How can a traitor can be called Sir?" "Is that a human? We shall feed the birds with him." "Be quiet!" sais the king as he raises a hand "Now tell me, human kid, do you remember anything about what happened to you before coming here?" sais the king with a calm voice "I don''t remember, Your Majesty. Every time I try to remember I get a bad feeling that hurts..." I put my right hand on my chest "We are the elves, we know more things about memories than any other race so I know that you have a chance to remember your past. Sir Daren!" says The King The Royal Adviser opens a mini gate and extracts a crystal globe. "Sir, I will now show you the images we took from the village you come from. Prepare yourself!" in his eyes I could read the concern The globe starts to shine and then shows all the images. Everyone was quiet, the globe couldn''t replay sounds, only one thing could be heard. "Ba-domm, Ba-domm, Ba-domm" heartbeats My head hurts, it hurts so bad... I grab my head with my hands and try to look at everything the globe shows. Around I heard the elf''s hidden laughter and I began to remember little by little as I watched as the people of the village were killed with cold blood by the guards who had been infected with some sort of spell. I remember now! My parents, the villagers.. they are all dead... Even if the globe did not play the sounds, I could hear the screams, the wind and the sound of fire burning the whole village. I could hear the sound of the spear piercing my mother''s chest and belly while, with the last breath, she asked me to run. I fell on my knee with my face placed on the floor and start to cry. "It''s enough, Sir Daren. I think he remembers now. It is too cruel for him to watch again those images." said Princess Saphielle Naeyra "As you wish!" he stops the images and put the globe back After he put the globe back, he knee and put his hand on my back to check if I''m ok. "Sir. Daren, since you get to know the man, take him to the Little Garden for the moment." "Yes, Your Highness!" We leave the Throne Room with two guards following us and go up to the fourth floor of the castle. Arriving in a room with many doors we enter the one that leads to the north wing of the castle. We go on a long corridor that has many flower pots from which green roots flow and extend on the round wall of the hallway forming a green tunnel with pink flowers. We go out in a huge garden full of flowers, trees, and land ... even a lake. The garden was a kind of greenhouse being covered by a round dome made of several hexagonal windows, one of three hexagons being made of a kind of crystal through which diffused light comes out. "Wait here!" said Daren to the guards who stop at the entrance "Let''s have a walk, maybe you''ll feel better." said Daren as I bow my head as a sign of approval "The elves don''t seem too happy for me being here." I said "You can''t blame us, the human race killed a lot of our people 500 years ago and became a force to be fear of. Since then, the world has changed and we lived only because we kept the distance from them. I can say that you have a good heart and that you have suffered and continue to suffer but remember that although not all elves like you because they believe that you are as the same as other humans, there are some who see beyond the appearance." walking by the lake "In these times you should think about your good memories and about what your parents wanted for you to do when you grow up." Daren adds "Thank you, Sir Daren! You are a good guy also." kicking in the fallen leaves "You can call me Daren when we are alone." I lost everyone that loved me in this world but I haven''t lost my dad from my previous life. I think he died of old age which makes me feel happier than the parents of this world who were massacred by zombies with cruelty. I would like to honor his memory. "Then you can call me Haro." "That''s a nice name!" he nods and smiles We saw a wooden bridge over the lake leading to a white wooden Pavillon and we sat on a wooden couch. "When the king said that elves know more things about memories than any other race, what is he meant about?" "The elves can live up to 200 years and when we die no matter the cause, we reincarnate with all the memories of the past''s lives. We can recall any memory from any past life. I can recall the memories from the battle but I choose not to because I would be consumed by hate. This is a blessing and also a curse because we can reincarnate only when a true blood elf is born and the born rate must be kept under control otherwise we risk that too many reincarnations in a short amount of time will bring a catastrophe. After several reincarnations, we lose memories starting with the remotest memories and up to the ones in today''s life, until we forget how to breathe and die without reincarnating again." "You can choose to recall bad memories and suffer or to recall good memories and live happily, It''s your choice... Haro!" I look down at my feet and try to think about the good memories. Recalling some memories, the tears start to fall again. "I remember when I walked for the first time in the village center with my mom. She was walking in front of me with a straw backpack on her back to the market. Although we descended from the hill where our house was, I still stayed behind because I had short legs and the road was full of small stones. It was sunny and it was warm outside, it smelled of grass and flowers and the wind was pushing me from behind. I reached the market where she took me in her arms and allowed me to choose what vegetables we buy. I asked her many questions and I saw on her face how glad she was to ask her so much." "I remember when I left home and went to my dad who was at work to surprise him. When I got close to the center of the village I wandered among the dozens of similar houses. People, horses, and carts went in all directions. When a carriage almost passed over me, I got scared and ran away without looking, in this way I ran into my parents who were looking for me. I thought they would punish me but in fact, they took me in their arms and told me not to leave again without telling them while they were crying for happiness that I was fine." "These are good memories. You should value them!" he says and I nod as a sign of approval "Shoe heels are heard" "I''m sorry if I interrupted an important discussion but I wanted to talk with the human, alone." says Princess Saphielle Naeyra while holding her voluminous pink dress on the sides so she can climb the four steps of the Pavillon We both get surprised to see the princess. "Of course, I''ll go to see the king for now." he swallows and shows a forced smile "Your Highness, Sir... H-Haro!" bows and leaves She walks in and asks: "May I sit next to you, Sir Haro?" smiling I feel uncomfortable in her presence and I wish I could avoid her but Sir Daren said 2 days ago that she may be the reason why I''ve got rescued so I am indebted to her. "Sure!" She sits down gracefully, opens a small gate and pulls out a pink fan that she holds in front of her, leaving only her green eyes glowing with passion, to be seen. ... .. . "Painful silence" Chapter 12 - The justice is a path full of pain ... .. . "Painful silence" Don''t just stand there... say something! I should start the conversation? "Cough, Cough! T-thanks... I heard that you-" "From what my father told me, you are that little boy... how old are you?" Well more or less than 2.13 trillion years, but I think I can''t tell you that. "I think 16-years-old, your Highness!" She looks towards the exit for a moment. "I will ask you something else and I want you to be honest with me." she sais looking deep into my eyes ... 6 Royal Guards approached us and stopped at the sign of the princess. "What connection do you have with the one who brings death?" "I don''t know what you mean, Princess." "Let me ask you once again. What connection do you have with the one who brings death?" "N-no, no connection!" She stands up and holds the fan in front of her mouth, walks two steps towards the exit of the Pavilion and turns her head slightly toward me. She closes her fan, leaving the sad face in sight. "I thought that I could keep you by my side and show to elvish people that not all humans are inferior creatures, but you have shown me the opposite. Take him!" "What are you doing? Why do you imprisoning me?" "My father''s orders. I tried to help you but I can''t help an inferior creature." She leaves without looking back. This is not good, the elves from all the manga I''ve read before were a proud race. If I lose face to the ones that still believe in me, I will be executed. If you come across this story on Amazon, it''s taken without permission from the author. Report it. System, I need a way out of this! ... System??? The guards put on some big handcuffs, which are made of hard steel and they pull me to prison under the castle. System? Your master needs you! I remember that the update was done, but I don''t know what happened afterward. We go on another route to the cell that was destined for me, avoiding the crowded castle and the eyes of the curious. We get to the basement and I''m guided by the guards and go on some hallways that lead to other hallways and so on ... just like a maze. Behind us we hear the walls moving and colliding, it is dark and only the iron torches caught by the walls from 10 by 10 meters illuminate the path. Meanwhile, in the throne room Sir Daren, Elder Reluvethel, Elder Delsaran, and Elder Rhalyf were discussing with the king what to do with the prisoner. They look through the magic globe that Sir Daren, the Royal Adviser has placed it on a specially made red pillow sitting on a stand in front of elders. "There is nothing to argue about, we should execute him. No human has ever walked on this castle, he might inform the enemies about how is this place guarded and risk your safety, Your Majesty!" says Reluvethel "Are you insinuating that there is a breach In our defense, Elder Reluvethel?" said the GuardMaster who was always on the left side of the throne when important matters occurred "Yes, that''s what I think." "How dare you, we are guarding his Majesty from the beginning of time and no one has ever passed through our defense since then." said GuardMaster revolted The king stood with his eyes closed on the throne and listened without saying anything. "Please stop! You are in the presence of the king." said Daren who stays by the right side of the throne "The doors are opening" A guard esters the door and says: "Your Majesty, the Princess Saphielle Naeyra is here!" She enters the Throne Room in her pink dress. When Daren notices, he asks some guards to bring Princess''s sofa. A sofa of two meters long and one meter wide, made from carved wood and lined with the finest materials, was settled by the guards by the right side of the throne. All people there bowed to her while she walks towards the sofa. "Did he say anything regarding that matter, my daughter?" looking at her "He lied to me about his age then he said the truth saying "I don''t know what you mean" and then lied when he said that he has no connection with the one that brings death." "He may have an indirect connection, one that he is not aware of." said Rhalyf looking at the image of Haro that lies on the straw in a dark, damp cell He might be innocent and I said to him those words... Thinking of... "I thought that I could keep you by my side and show to elvish people that not all humans are inferior creatures, but you have shown me the opposite. Take him!!" thinking of the past And... "I tried to help you but I can''t help an inferior creature." "You all saw what happened with that village. No one would have survived in such circumstances. The village was almost destroyed when we decided to open a portal, and after 3 hours when we managed to open it ... all the houses, the bodies, and even the snow had disappeared. In the place where we supposed to find that young child, we found a grown-up one, alive." said Elder Delsaran "This one might be innocent, but we cannot risk the safety of the elves. We have to get rid of him." Elder Rhalyf "I wouldn''t take him in in the first place if it wasn''t for my daughter." said King Theodas looking at her She gets up from the couch upset. "Would you kill an innocent just like that? How can we call ourselves mighty elves if we murder an innocent soul? This means that we are not better than humans." she says "Enough! I''ve made my decision." says the king rising his right arm All the people stared at him waiting for his decision. "Tomorrow, when the sun rises we will throw the prisoner through the Gate of Heaven. That''s all for now. You may go!" He gets up and leaves "Why didn''t you say anything? From what I saw you get along well with Haro." sais the princess looking at Daren "The king said that I got too close to Haro and I better keep my silence than be on his side, guided by my own feelings. It was an order so I had no other choice." he responds Soon, all of them leave the Throne Room. The night came and surrounded the castle, the gigantic statues and the pieces of land on which the elves live, in a sea of stars. The approximate length of each piece of land is from 500 to 1200 meters and each has a watchtower that illuminates the sky like the lights of a car illuminate the road in the night. In the vicinity of the castle, an eagle squad that patrols (elves who domesticated some huge vultures or "little birds" and trained with them) are often caught by the lights of the watchtowers after nightfall. Not long after the patrol finished its job, the sun started to rise. From far, the sunlight was spreading on each piece of land, on each building and statue, making their shadows visible on the surrounding white clouds that sometimes could be found in a higher altitude than usual. At the ground floor of the castle, in the courtroom (a room smaller than the throne room but quite roomy, having about three hundred people on both sides, in the middle of the room being the Gate of Heaven which is a stone round door on the floor with many teeth in the form of a semi-moon that are joined together and opens at those sentenced to death who are thrown from 8000 meters altitude where the castle is situated, and in front of the gate in the judge chair is the king) people gathered to be witnesses at the first trial kept after a few decades. "The doors are opening" Two guards are opening the door while the other four are guiding me. I''ve already lost my parents... two times. What now? I''m going to lose my life for the second time also? Most of them look at me with contempt and hate like I was the one who murdered their whole race 500 years ago. When we arrive at my final destination, at a half-meter from the Gate of Heaven people started enjoying, like they were at a cinema and I was the movie. I don''t see the princess here, neither Daren.. I''ve lost my only chance to get out of this mess. "Your Majesty, why did I get arrested? I did nothing wrong!" "Whispers" "I, Theodas Neremyn, Second in my name, Bringer of justice and Rightful ruler over the Kingdom Elerinelo, I declare that the prisoner Haro of the human kingdom is found guilty because he made a secret pact with the evil bringing disaster over a human village and caused several thousand souls to suffer because of the winter caused by the evil all over the world." "Fly him!" "Let him fly! Open the door!" said the elves "Please let me live, I swear I have nothing to do with this! My parents were also there, why would I kill my own parents?..." I say The king makes a sign. They don''t even listen to what I say. An elf dressed in a cloak approached from behind and said a few words in a language never heard of until now. My body felt very light and after a moment I did not touch the ground anymore. I was standing over the Heaven Gate, which is closed, but the semi-moon shaped teeth started to open. A strong breeze of fresh and cold air made its way inside giving me the emotions I forgot to have. "Do you have anything to say before you leave?" asks the king "Yes, Your Majesty! I think I have." "The chamber became silent for a moment" "What is it?" Chapter 13 - Let the adventure begin I have to cling to any thread of life. There must be something that I can still do. Please say yes, I have to save time... maybe I can find a way to escape... Why two cups? I''ve never been in such an awkward situation my whole life... I''m practically levitating above a hole at 8000 meters altitude, with my hands in handcuffs, with a maid on my left side that saw me naked 5 days ago, drinking a tea with the king, and over 300 elves are staring and whispering about me. Hm... my imagination, probably. My tea is almost finished... In my previous life, I didn''t like it. Who would''ve guessed that tea can make difference between life and death? Her green eyes, her small lips, her voice, her short green hair... Wait, wait a second. What I am thinking about when going to die? But what was that? I saw something before I fell. Am I dreaming? Did I die? System, can I use the teleportation to save me? The chance of survival is very low! The System requires the approval of the Master to use the autopilot.
