《A Fascinating Remembrance》 Prologue Rage filled those eyes. The eyes of the one who I thought to be my friend. No. If I was given the chance to correct it then I will say that it was the eyes of the one who once I thought to be my friend. Why did I thought something like this? The reason was simple. The sounds of wind is filling my ear. That sounds was not created by a strong gust. But created by the friction of air and my body as I falling down back to the earth after getting pushed from five-story building, head first. I could already understand that no matter what I do in this state, I will face my untimely death. I want to laugh, but this is no laughing matter. I want to scream, but my throat suddenly feels dry. Then, a single drop of teardrop falling away from my eyes, even just for a split second I could see it tear away from my eyes. That¡¯s right. I¡¯m crying. Not a loud cry that will get everyone attention, but I only let a single tear dropping. ¡®Ah, so this is what a betrayal feels like.¡¯ I ponder to myself as I face my end by getting smacked to the ground, head first, then turned into a splatter of blood and viscera. I, Adonia Rheno, are meeting his demise. ---***--- ¡°Hello?¡± I heard that voice. A girlish voice.If you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. A voice that I suppose to be shouldn¡¯t be able to hear after falling from that kind of height. I never consider the chance that I will survive. But¡­. It¡¯s kind of weird, if I do survive then did I right now lying on the top of a hospital bed? No, I couldn¡¯t quite get the feeling that I right now lie down, especially on top of a hospital bed. ¡°Hello~?¡± That voice again, I could heard it more clearly and louder than before. What is happening? Right now¡­ I need to try to open my eyes, and¡­ assess my situation. That¡¯s what I do. Slowly, I open up both of my eyes and bright light filled my vision, it blinded me for few seconds but I was able to quickly adapt and recover from it. What awaits my eyes was not the ceiling of hospital that I use to see when I was need to do some check up from time to time when I was still a sickly brat back in the days of my elementary school, but what awaits me was a scenery of pure white sky. How should I put it, I am not really good with using metaphor but I could say that these sky that was spread across my line of vision is just like a sheet of paper. White. A complete white. Without any single spots or dots on it. And then¡­. ¡°Ah, I see that you are already awake now.¡± ¡°Huh?¡± I am pretty sure that right now I made quite a stupid looking face. Just as I try to roll my eyes, suddenly a girl show up. A girl clad in same color as the sky that I just seen. White. ¡°Fuuh, I am glad that you are okay.¡± ¡°Uhm¡­.¡± I couldn¡¯t quite understand what is currently happening to me. ¡°I have a good news and bad news for you, which one you want to hear first?¡± ¡°A good and bad news?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± The girl in white nod her head while putting of quite an elegance smile on me, man that sure caught me off guard but that wasn¡¯t the time for it, even though yeah she is indeed quite cute. Of course, I want to know what is happening so I might be asking about what is these news she want to say to me. Maybe that will clear some things up on my mind. ¡°The good news please.¡± ¡°Congratulations for gaining your memories back, Xia Yu.¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Xia Yu? Who is that? Chapter 01 - I Remember! (1) That name, the name that just has been uttered by the lips of the girl that clad in white on front of me made me widen my eyes. Xia Yu? Whose name is that? But suddenly I feel the surge of pain rushes through my head once I heard that name. ¡°Argh!¡± It was a pain that I could say I never felt previously, not even once in my life, I even doubt that someone could experience this same level of pain could be felt on a person lifetime. I couldn¡¯t describe what kind of pain is this other than a strong headache. I only could threw a scream fitting of a little boy who was getting beaten up, the surging pain doesn¡¯t fade away quickly, it made me screams from the bottom of my lung. ¡°WHAT THE HELLLLLLLL?!¡± Pain, pain, pain. Pain, pain, pain, pain, pain. Pain, pain, pain, pain, pain, pain, pain. The same expressions I only could use to describe my current feeling were repeating itself inside my head, I couldn¡¯t get it off on my own. Once again I only could let out a scream, this time more piercing than before and more agonizing, somehow I could see that myself right now must be looked really pitiful. But inside those pain there were something else, something else that wasn¡¯t going to make any sense either to me or anything that came from my world. It was a surge of memory that suddenly blooming on every part of my brain, suddenly I filled with knowledge that I suppose to be had not known prior to all of this. All kind of knowledge that shall shatter the very foundation of humanity history were coming to this single mind of mine, even knowledge that was suppose to be something that was far from the reach of humanity power. That¡¯s right, Xia Yu¡­ that name is my name. I should say that Xia Yu WAS my name as it was something that come from my past. But there is something that wasn¡¯t making sense. If I am Xia Yu then who in the world is the current me; Adonia Rheno is? Nothing make any sense. Even if I try to make it into something that¡¯s sensible, the end answer is still all the same; no. The pain! The pain that has been calming down for a very few seconds starts coming back, the same pain that agonize me earlier and this time it was even able to bring me on my knees, I am falling down and start rolling around for quite a while. I ended up lying on the ground with my current pathetic self, gasping for breath as all of the screaming takes away most of the air on my lungs. Even I lose the strength to screams when all of the pain is still raging through every parts of my head, it¡¯s too painful extended to the point where I want to give up everything or anything just to make this pain subsided. But something as simple as that was impossible, I already know from the memories that suddenly pop up inside my head that this pain is one of the process needed for me to regain my forgotten memory of my past self. I need to bear with this, I know that this is wasn¡¯t the kind of pain that will goes on and kill me but still, I am a man that born on modern civilization where peace is something that should be taken as something granted for in the first place, it¡¯s makes me never gotten into a fight before¡­ man, what a pathetic loser I am right now. Wait, I just said that earlier¡­. To accommodate the pain, I start cracking some jokes inside my head, I start do that to keeps my consciousness intact or everything will be for naught if I do get knocked off right at this moment. But it was still no use, the pain is still too great to bear. Making some jokes will not working, I couldn¡¯t calm myself down. This is really bad, even if I do know what is currently happening right now but if I get unconscious once then I need to repeat all of this over again. Of course, I don¡¯t want something like this to be repeated again. So I decided, with my greatest resolution that I will hold out against this pain no matter what!The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement. But¡­ the pain is getting a lot stronger and now I want to cry! Once again¡­ I lash out because of the pain, no matter how strong my resolve is, something painful is painful and there is no way to stand against it at all!! Ahhhhhhhh, when I already thought that I will be looking a little cooler by standing the pain, especially in front of a girl but still this is hopeless. I just realize this but where is the girl clad in white from before? I forget her existence for a while but now I am trying my best to restore my sense of surrounding. I roll my eyes to the corner and I get a glimpse of her face, which takes me by surprise when I just realize the girl clad in white face was so close on mine. ¡°Graghh!! What are you doing?!¡± I try to keep my voice down as possible but it was in the end come to nothing but fruitless effort when I try to speak with the girl, but she doesn¡¯t seems really mind it as she just keeps smiling. What a beautiful smile but I don¡¯t have time to admire it at all because. ¡°Please forgive me, Xia Yu. But this is to make your pain disappear.¡± What is to make my pain disappear? What are you going to do? Don¡¯t tell me that I will taste the sensation of dying twice in a day?! What kind of a sick joke is that?! Just as I want to scream out my mind out of this, I feel it. I feel the soft sensation a lips on mine, it goes from just a simple kiss to a deep kiss, everything goes out of control in a flash when her tongue starts entwine with mine. I try to resist at first but it was all for naught when I just realize how powerless I am in my current state, nothing will be able to stop this girl from anything that she will do at me. But¡­ I never know that kissing will be had this kind of feeling, comfortable and somehow enchanting¡­ those were my own way of describe it, and somehow slowly but surely the pain that I had been feeling all of this time starting to subside. The rising pain now has becoming nothing but an itch on head, now I could think more clearly and everything becomes more and more clear as the pain goes away. Slowly, she let me go, it wasn¡¯t really what you called as one of those passionate kiss that a lover will be having, but nonetheless it¡¯s still makes me blush. I am a virgin, even if I don¡¯t want to admit it but it was the truth and I couldn¡¯t hide it anyway because it was the truth. So a kiss or something that like deep kiss were something that I never experienced before, even I don¡¯t expect to experience it anytime soon after I died. The thin thread of saliva that came from both our tongue still connected, I need to take some distance from this girl because my heart wouldn¡¯t be able to take it anymore for anything holy on Earth sake! ¡°Did you like it, Xia Yu?¡± ¡°There¡¯s no way I could like it if you force yourself, Aurora.¡± Huh, wait¡­. When I giving a glance to the girl that clad in white, to color me surprise, she having a wide smile while her gaze meets mine, her eyes full of happiness. Don¡¯t tell me¡­ ¡°Xia Yu already remembered me!¡± The girl clad in white or should I call as Aurora start rushing at me who still on state of half-sitting at the ground, with joyful expressions she then give me a whole hug without giving me a single rest. ¡°Whoa there!¡± ¡°Xia Yu already remembered me~ Xia Yu already remembered me~¡± Just as a child, she burying her face to my chest while I just be myself who getting dumbfounded for a while. ¡°Hey, stop that, Aurora.¡± I caress her head gently, but it just make her more aggressive on her take of burying her face on my chest. I only could show a weak smile then sighing quietly, which made Aurora face becoming full of questions. ¡°What is it, Xia Yu?¡± ¡°No, it¡¯s just that I never expected that both of us will ever meet each other again. Especially after I died and getting reincarnated as Adonia Rheno, I thought the chance of becoming my past self is on same par as astronomical numerical value.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t start using some strange words that will make me don¡¯t understand what you say, say it clearly Xia Yu.¡± Of course, what I mean is obvious but this girl intelligence was on same level as an elementary school kid. What am I trying to say in this situation is the fact that I currently could converse with her was something that I couldn¡¯t believe at all, as the heavens has declare that both of us will only be able to meet each other when another calamity streak the world once again. That is right, only when there are calamity in this world, both of us will meet each other no matter what standing in our way but to trigger this meeting there¡¯s only one way. I must meet my demise, or to put it bluntly I need to be dead first then we shall meet each other. Me from previous state will said something as that will be too much, but me from my current state could only think of that as something like trivial matter. What is important now is the fact that I already recovered all of my memories as Xia Yu. Usually there will be some kind of explanation on what kind of calamity are running around in this world or better known as planet Earth right now, but I already know it thanks to my memory as Adonia Rheno too still remaining inside my head. ¡°So Aurora, my death must be connected with the calamity that is happening on Earth right?¡± ¡°Yes, indeed! You are pretty sharp.¡± ¡°I experienced the situation on Earth first hand so there¡¯s no way I will not bring this up.¡± That is right¡­. The current calamity, I already experience it. The form of that calamity is¡­. ¡°72 World Gate appearing around Earth and causing apocalypse on Earth too.¡± Joyful expressions are lost from the face of Aurora, the only thing I could see on her face was the kind of face that I will made when something dear to me will meet it end, in other word that means she making grim expressions on her beautiful face. Just as I thought, The 72 World Gates or Dimension Gates that starts appearing a few years ago¡­ it was the root of the world current apocalyptic state¡­.
