《Harem King》 Prologue: The Beginning part 1. I felt the chilly air against my face and felt specks of tiny water that felt similar to snowflakes on my face. I tried opening my eyes but it was too heavy at this point so I was focusing on my other senses. I tried moving around but it felt like I was tied with ropes at this point because my limbs couldn''t move. I felt this warmness on my side and notice I was being carried. Whoever was carrying me suddenly stop and the warmth that I was feeling was gradually going away and I was slowly descending. Instead of the warmth I felt like a budding coldness around me but I was on something soft. I felt a warm kiss on my forehead one that has love, tender, and everlasting longing. Unfortunately that was gone also and a large knock was to be heard with a couple of shuffling footstep fleeing my ears along it was a woman crying I knew it was woman because it reminded me of my mother. When I finally had the strength to open my eyes I saw the night sky which was fill with dazzling stars and constellation. Hmmm, that''s weird I don''t recognize any of this constellation and stars. Nevertheless it was gorgeous and something I usually don''t see in the city. When I started to recount on what happen and I how got here I heard footsteps coming from somewhere and before I realize it I notice a face hovering above me. [???]: ?}????? I couldn''t understand what the person was saying ,suddenly the sound of a whip was heard and horses neighing and something took off. I was assuming it was carriage but I wonder why there was a carriage in the first place. A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.[???]: ?}????? I still don''t know what she''s saying I don''t recount what language it is and I have travel the world and met people from everywhere before. Gradually I was picked up and I saw face to face who this person was. She looked like she was in her mid twenties and had delicate features. A small and cute head with a mountain full of curly purple hair. I wonder why purple is it the new fad now? I also see pointy ears is people getting cosmetic surgery for this? I will never understand the trend these days. Back to topic, she had natural red lips in the shape of an heart, which is charming. She had nicely tinted rosy cheeks and thin eyebrows. Her eyes shape looks more European, wide and beautiful. Her iris was the color of the deep sea ocean something which I will never forget. I was intently staring into her eyes which I can get lost in it was so mesmerizing. Her figure was in the shape of an hourglass figure, in my opinion it was perfect but she was a bit short. In my guess she was 151 cm ( 4 ft and 9 inches). What she was wearing was kind of strange to me, she was wearing a maid outfit you see in one of those maid cafe in Japan. I haven''t been in Japan in a while I thought I was in the States ( United States Of America) before I got here, where ever I''m at. She suddenly lower her upper body down with me in her arms. She was reaching over to pick something up in the the snow. She showed me a medallion with beautiful engraving and she said something. [???]: ?}????? Kenshi Reinhart. I guess that''s my name now? Prologue: The Beginning part 2. I have just finished putting the kids into bed. It was in the middle of winter so I wanted to make sure the kids are warm enough for the harsh freezing winter. After making sure the kids are safely tuck in bed I had to go back to my office and calculate the daily expenses to make sure I can keep the orphanage running. While I was deep in thought thinking about my saving that I had saved up from my adventuring time and side jobs I currently hold, I heard somebody viciously knocking on the door. Do they know what time it is! It''s midnight. Looking outside my window through the snowfall I saw a carriage which was elegantly made, it seem to be from a high noble family because they had a family crest with jewels that shine in the night. While looking outside the window I saw a couple walking back to the carriage with fresh snowflakes still falling, I noticed newly tracked footprints onto the snow. The women turned her head at the window and our eyes met but the male next to her had a kingly aura and didn''t even bother turning back; she looks like she been crying for a while she even had puffy red eyes but that didn''t disrupt her beauty at all. She was elegantly dress. She was wearing a top that was like a corset with a fancy silky white shirt with it which seem to be the fad right now. The corset color was white for the most part with black and gold for the outlining of it. Her bottom part was a skirt that matched her corset it seem to be of high quality because of the way it shine in the dark. She seem to be a refined lady with the way she did her hair it was in a fancy elegant bun with a few strands of hair alongside her face. Her Hair color was uniquely different it was a shade of whitish silver I have never seen before. Her face was cutely shape like a button.She was very voluptuous in my opinion which will drive men mad to seek for her. I couldn''t make more out of her face because of the slowly falling snowflakes and the distance she was at but the most desirable and shocking part of hers I believe to be was the eyes. I was staring into her eyes which seem to know what love is.I can stare at it for eternity and will never be bored with it. Her eyes even show which she desire, what she wanted, want it meant to be envy. It even had fiery passion and longing in the deep black iris of hers, I was confused as which she hold so much emotion in them for I can''t describe. What was she so in love with that made her look that way? I unconsciously chased after her wanting to question her. What made her like that? Will I ever experience something like that? Before I knew it, I opened the door to the orphanage. Ahh.. I knew what that passion and love was for. There seem to be a child here. It looked like the child was carefully bundle up and tighten up to make sure it was safe, a little bit to tight to be honest. With a sympathetic voice. Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings. [Mia]: Another child.... abandoned. While I was murmuring, I heard the sound of whip was being cracked and the carriage sped off into the capital city up north cover by the brilliance darkness of the cold night illuminating them with the stars. I heard faint sound of sobbing from where I was standing before the carriage left. [Mia]: Poor child, we might as well go inside to escape the cold. I picked up the child and was staring intently at it. It had pure white hair which was the same as the women but the child didn''t have the same iris as the women it had a gorgeous pale blue eyes which reflect the innocence of the world being shown to it. Such a cute kid. Before I enter the building I saw something blinked in the darkness of the night cover with snow next to the child so I bend down to pick it up. While clearing the snowflakes off the round object I notice how the craftsmanship on this was exquisite and something commoners can''t afford to engrave. It seemed to be made of mithril which is expensive and something this size will get a you decent living for a while. It was probably made of mithril to keep it from rusting something which noble families make for their newborns. I saw a few characters on it which I could read. [Mia]: So I''m guessing your name is Kenshi Rienhart and your also a boy what a shame. You could''ve been a cute girl. While closing the doors I was thinking why this baby was unusually calm I haven''t heard a sound from him. I was raising another baby in this orphanage and she would cry at almost every point in the daytime. I hope my trouble won''t increase. I was wondering where I should put him, I was not expecting another baby because they are usually rare they mostly die off as the sad truth of this world. While walking down the hall to where Jenny the other baby was, I saw him intently moving his head back and forth looking at the surrounding. It seem the light from the small mana stone is keeping him distracted. I was happy that he didn''t miss his mother because I would not know what to do with him. We got to Jenny room, it was a small room with a tiny fireplace and a couple of windows. The flame of the fireplace kept this room warm for Jenny. I decided to let them sleep together since they are both babies, it shouldn''t be a problem until when maybe they grow up for now it should be fine. While unwrapping him from the tightly cushion blanket, I thought to myself yup it was too tight for sure. I actually had to use mana enhancement for my hands to untangled the blanket from him. After I laid him down next to Jenny, I thought to myself they can be best friends with each since they are the only one in their age group. Before I can even think of the future I saw him kicked her! He even tried to grabbed her hair! This might not be a good idea.. Chapter 1: The Fight Starts... When we enter the building I was amazed by what was Lightning the building up. It seemed to be a tiny blue stone emitting some kind of energy inside one of those old glass lamp I believed to be from the 1700''s or 1800''s I''m not sure how it works though with these blue stones. There some to be dozen of them along the walls and tables lighting this building up. Although it wasn''t rare back on earth there were usually stones that emits light that were called fluorescent minerals although not as bright as these stones. I really want one to break apart and learn how it functions and how it is self-sustaining itself, so interesting. I used to be interested in everything when I was growing up from martial arts to philosophy from anime to being a star striker on my football(soccer) team. This building seem to be fill with children because a bunch of high pitch snoring and murmurs. If faintly smelled like a bakery shop the smell of baked goods was in the air. Before I even notice we enter into a room that was really warm and comfortable with the smell of baby powder I assume. The lady(Mia) looked straight at me intently without saying anything I guess she''s deep in thought. She was flustered trying to unbundle me until I felt a strange energy around her hands and the blanket snaps. While she was laying me down into the wooden crib, I saw the other life-form. Something about it face makes me want to punch it. So I gave it a kick to it fat chubby thigh. I was even trying grab it hair and ears. Something about it makes me wanna break it. The kid had some holy untouchable aura around itself, it even had a cute baby face like a sleeping baby panda with a pile of messy green hair. Also sharp pointy ears what the hell!!? Is this the new trend, I just think it''s way to early get surgery for appearances when you''re still a baby. What the hell was wrong with the parents??! I should give them a nice boot licking if I ever saw them. How the hell is this kid still sleeping after I kicked it?!!? Before I can give the kid my 1-2 combo I was suddenly picked up by the lady. She had a bewilder look on her face. Hey lady I was trying to the teach kid some manners, lady just ignore me and move on I need to show who''s boss before it''s too late. Currently I am being transported to a room across the baby, it seemed like this room belongs to the lady. It was simply decorated with a desk and a huge mirror with along side it was a huge drawers which I assume which was for clothes. On the desk was a bunch of disorganized papers with strange letters and seal on them. Man how is she so messy!!? There''s random paper everywhere on the desk I need to organize it when I have a chance. Her bed had a wooden foundation and seemed to be queen size quite luxurious in my opinion with seem to have silk sheets and pillow I''m willing to guess she love sleeping or at least value it. She gently put me down on her bed and silently walk to the door and closed it. This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source. I was intently thinking about how this was a long day. Why am I child? Where am I? How did I get here? How''s my family? Before I can even organize my thoughts the lady walked to the closet and took out some pajamas and put it on the bed. HMM?!!?!? She better not get undress here! I was never good dealing with woman they make me all fluster and make me act a fool on more then one occasion, oddly enough I was always surrounded by them in my past. I panicky tried to cover my eyes with my tiny chubby fingers but then I heard a sweet sounding giggling sound I uncover my eyes and saw her entering the bathroom I assume. I let out a huge sigh, I was a virgin in the past 24 years of my life I was always busy with something. I mean I had girlfriends but we never went that far because I was to focus on something during my life. I think that was my biggest regret. She came out of the bathroom wearing a child-like pajamas that didn''t fit her age. It was a 2 piece pajamas a long shirt with flower stitches on it and the size seem too big for her. The trouser also has tiny different flower stitches on it and the pajamas color were in a shade of light navy blue and it seem she was dragging it while walking. She murmur something and did a head-dive jump into the bed!! Hey, hey watch it now a child is on your bed that was dangerous you aloof adult! Today has been one stressful day and way too many unexpected surprises.I hoped my friends and family aren''t worried about me so much. They usually panic when I don''t keep in touch every month and I usually forget it and they would get angry but sometime it really doesn''t bother me if I''m all alone for years or days. People would''ve described me as aloof and clumsy but I don''t really care. Nothing really gets me angry or anything but when I''m angry you sure as hell would know. I was always late or coming in nonchalant even the military couldn''t get me to be serious.I was always the guy that go with the flow and adapt and change and thought of the next steps. Before I finish thinking I heard loud snoring sounds right next to me... Hmm, I guess it''s pretty late I should also get some shut eyes. Before I even shut my eyes I was grabbed by the aloof adult!?!? Hey I''m still a child this is dangerous! I''m not a plush doll, let go of me!! How do babies cry? What sound do they make? Goddamit, I''m a grown man I will never cry in this form. Never. Please let go of me!!! Your dangerous mountains are suffocating me. Ah, whatever it''s just one night I guess I can deal with it. Wait, is she sleep talking now??!! @!#@!$!$#@$$%? I feel like this world is going to be a pain. Chapter 2: The first days of many... Ugh..mom I don''t wanna get up yet. Shut the binds.... Slowly opening my eyes, I notice a familiar figure. [Kenshi]:Mom....? Oh yeah, I forgot mom passed away when I was a freshman in high-school(1st year of primary school). It was just that ditzy adult. I wonder what time is it? It should be dawn looking at the sun position. Okay, enough wasting time I need to figure out what to do and where am I. First, I think I should learn the language. I''m getting frustrated not understanding what people are saying. Hmm, how should I go about this? I guess I should just ask to be picked up for now and just listen. How do babies do that again? I''m guessing sticking out my arms. [Mia]: Did he say something?? What should I do with him today... I guess I should introduce him to the other children for now and let them watch him. I also need to make the sweet bread today for the market. I hope they don''t bully him, I know he looks different but they are children. I should believe in them! My children I raised are the best. Alright, he even looks like he wants to be picked up. This no brain adult left me with all these children. Their not even watching me, they are just having fun outside in the snow! The older kids are shoveling the snow while the smaller kids are playing with it but why I am stuck with this silent kid and this pointy ear baby! I think the other kids called her Shia and the other baby Jenny. Why am I surrounded by girls again in this world! I''m not good with them! Shia seem pretty quiet and also seem to be always walking around with a book. I''m guessing she''s our babysitter. Hmph? They seem to ignore Shia, I wonder why? Maybe it''s her hair color and iris.. The other kids seem to have bright colors hair and iris. I guess Shia does look different. She has long straight pure black hair that looks like a raven alongside it she has a pure black iris so solid as the night sky without stars. She also has no expression on her face and talk much. I guess that can make it difficult to be friends with. She looks around 5-6 years old and seem to wear a one piece dress, isn''t she cold? Seem like we''re walking to a bench. She puts me down next to her and I figure my age to be around 7-8 months old because I can around sit up straight by myself. From my knowledge about babies when I was taking classes in college(uni) when I tried studying to be a doctor they can only do that around 7-8 months old, talk at 18 months and walk around 9-12. Hmm? Shia seem to be reading a book with words attached to the picture! This will be perfect for me I can learn the language and grammar. I will point to all the stuff I recognize in this book so I can get a grasp on the language. .... [Shia]:.Sun..... ...... [Shia]: Flower.... .... [Shia]:.....Tree ..... [Shia]:... Mana..... Did Shia smile? She doesn''t say much until I point. I pointed to something blue in the picture but what''s mana? Hey hey hey it can''t be something like magic right? I know mana existed in games and books but it can''t be right? I need to investigate! If it is this world will already be 100 times better than earth! NOOOO!! It seemed to be breakfast time now because the kids rang a bell, remind me of when I was training in the wilderness with the military. I wonder where''s that doofus is at??? *doors open, many different voices* Mia, you''re back! Her name is Mia that''s good to know. At least she didn''t forget to bring food for me and Jenny so I guess it''s time for breakfast. All Jenny does is eat and sleep, I guess that''s normal for a baby. I''m the abnormal one. Me and Jenny get bottles of milk I''m seeing the older kids are eating something like bread and ham for breakfast. I learnt that after breakfast and chores the kids have classes with Mia. Older children seem to stay longer for class while the younger children participate in chores and free time afterward. She teaches basic arithmetic(math), history/geography, writing/language, and magic! If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. Numbers are the same, this will make it easier for me in the future. I''m guess Math is the universal truth, huh? Math class was really basic she teaches the 6-9 years old simple math like adding and subtracting. 10-12 years old children only learn multiplication and division, I wonder if they don''t have calculus or formulas yet or is it to advanced? This world seem to be at medieval or feudal Japan time period at the moment. History and Geography class was kind of boring because I didn''t understand so much. There seem to be 8 continents and we''re on the 2nd biggest one also seem to be a lot countries on this continent ,seem to be about the same size of North America but roughly in the shape of a square quite big I must say. Writing and grammar seem to be like the English language which makes my life easier. They just seem to have bit more letters to the alphabet than before, now it''s up to 32. They don''t look that hard to write. Alright, time for magic class! What.... She chanted some phrase and now she''s glowing?? Please don''t tell me that all we can do. She didn''t even say much and her eyes were closed! I don''t know what''s going on anymore. It seemed to be about dusk at the moment, the children don''t eat lunch and for dinner they ate some kind of porridge with bread. This is kind of sad, I also figure out this place was an orphanage. They don''t eat lunch but they eat small snacks I''m guess a full meal might be a bit more expensive to feed this many mouth. I need to solve this issue as soon as possible. These kids are in their growing phrase they need their nutrition. I wonder why my parents left me here? I remember the warm kiss I gotten from them. They must have their own fair share of problems. I understand this world is hard to live in when I was in history classes with so many countries there should be plentiful places full of conflicts. Before it got dark Mia and the children gather at the front entrance, she brought me and Jenny along. A kid around 13-14 years old with has knapsack was in tears is he getting kicked out? Until Mia gave him a bag fill with coins because of the sound I assume it was money so he wasn''t in trouble. So the next logical reason is he needs to leave? I guess you can''t stay here forever. Now I have a timeline of how long I can stay here. When he left, the orphanage was in a dreary silence, this feeling made my heart clenches because of my past. It was bedtime I was sleeping with Mia again, Jenny had her own crib and I believe Shia was sleeping with the girls. While I was lying in bed with Mia who has fallen asleep,I can see some tear strands from her. I guess it must be hard letting kids out in this world after you worked so hard to raise them. Hey stop treating me as a plush toy! I haven''t fallen asleep yet, I need to make a plan I can''t stay here forever. I need to strengthen my body for now so I guess I can crawl and do basic exercise to get stronger. This brain is a sponge at the moment I can use this to focus on learning and mentally train my martial art I have learnt before so when I deem myself old enough to be practice I won''t be out of practice. I''m really interest in magic also I hope that we just don''t glow. Alright I should get some sleep, I can figure out more later on. The next morning was almost the same as yesterday expect the other girls has taken a liking to Jenny and they took her away from me and Shia. I don''t mind because all she do is sleep but Shia seemed to be a bit sad. I accidentally hugged her out of my natural instinct, she reminded of an injured pet. Now every time I''m left alone with her she hugs me so tightly. What have I done. Afternoon classes went as usual except there was more to magic then glowing! Bedtime went as usual with me being treated as a plush toy. Chapter 3: Shia Lovinghart. When Ms.Mia was introducing us to Kenshi,I thought he was a girl because he looked so feminine like a porcelain doll in a dress. His white hair reminds me of the snow outside that hasn''t been tarnish by the dirtiness and corruption of the outside world. Something that was more striking than his hair was his iris that was almost deep blue like mana except his was paler in comparison nonetheless beautiful. I was so adorned with how he looked that I noticed his indifferent looks at us, when Ms.Mia was holding him it was like he was lost in his own little world which I want to be apart of if he lets me. I am already dirty by this world with it ugliness hate and corruption which I promised myself that I will protect Kenshi from no matter what. My full name is Shia Lovinghart, before I arrived in the orphanage I lived with my mother in a hut outside a small village. My mother was beautiful she had long wavy hair that was in the color of pale pink it had the smell of the wilderness, which I found comfortingly. She had a slim face with perfectly shaped eyebrows and eyelashes so long that made her looked like a painting. Her lips was thin and full with a hint of red on it which made her looked like royalty. Her iris was just like mine, deep and dark like the night. I was proud of my mother of how beautiful she was and I was embarrassed to be her child because of it. Me and my mother was happily living together even if we don''t have much. My mother tried her best and I was happy. She explained to me that my father was somebody important elsewhere and that he will be back for us when he finish but it was too late. Before Mother got sick she was strict with lessons on how to read and write, before I turned 5 she even taught me on how to eat politely and manners to act in public. I never came to the village before it was always only my mother when we ran out of supplies or needed something. Without knowing what to do when Mother got sick I went into the village for help but they looked at me with disdain and hateful gazes. When I summoned enough courage to ask for help from a stranger I was terrified. [Shia]: M-M-M-Mr-r-r. ca-nnn-n som--ebod--y h--elp m-yy Mot-he-rrr sh-eee''s sic-kkkk...... [Mr.Stranger] What child? Your mother is sick? Good riddance who told her fall in love with a demon. [Shia]: Dem-ooon? [Mr.Stranger]: Yes, you half breed she found him injured in some river and nurse him back to health even when we suggest to let him rot and die in hell. Your father. [Shia]: Bu-ttt he''-ssss no-ttt her-eee.... [Mr.Stranger]: That''s none of our concern child, and don''t bring your cursed self into this village anymore luckily you met a nice man like me, others won''t be so kindly to you. You should know ---- I panicked and was angry with that man that insulted my father I never met. I didn''t let him finish what he was saying and ran straight back to the hut in hot fiery tears. When I went to my mother bed with tears she was fluster on what happen and asked me what was wrong. I told her that I went to the village to ask for help to cure her sickness but they refused. She faintly smile and told me she expected something like that would happen when I asked for help. Then I told her that they called my father a demon she replied quickly and sharply that he was no demon. She said that he was the kindest person she met, the most courageous one that her eyes had ever laid upon. Then I interrupted her and angrily yelled where was he, she smiled and said he has something important to do for us. I couldn''t take it anymore with her excuse for father so I just ran outside into the wilderness, I ran so far deep in the woods I couldn''t even see my house anymore. After I ran out of steam I noticed that the sun was setting and I was lost. I didn''t know what to do and it was getting cold and dark. I decided to hide inside an empty out tree that can barely fit anybody. I didn''t know how long I was crying in this tree until I passed out but before I did I heard somebody calling and the warmness of a torch. When I woke up and realized it was mother taking care of me even though she was sick. I started wailing in tears and it surprised my mother,she asked me whats wrong again. I told her I''m sorry for what I did. She just smiled and said I did nothing wrong. After that incident mother sickness kept getting worst and worst. One time when I was collecting the small money we had in our home to offer for help they beat me and took it all and said to never come again. My mother cried for me, which made me broke my heart, even when she was sick she was still thinking of me. I decided I had better chances collecting food and herbs in the wilderness then asking the village for help again. I gather the herbs and mushroom I tested it out on myself before feeding mother. Once I got so sick, mother had to take care of me and she angrily yelled at me for not telling her what I was doing. She told to just collect it and she will teach me on how to identify them. Several months passed and mother seemed to be out energy, now she is bedridden. Everyday I cried because I was powerless and I cursed the villagers because they wouldn''t help. My mother told me everyone has problems, that everyone suffer through life and you can only make the best out of it. I cannot forgive them but I didn''t tell my mother because it would break her heart. It was my birthday! I turn 5 today my mother even made a dress for me which I tried it on and it was perfect. It was a one piece dress that was plain white but had a sewn insignia in a shape of a rose, I loved it. When it was getting dark, we heard horses and men yelling it got louder and louder and then metal clanking nearby. Suddenly our door burst open and a big gnarly man was seen. His teeth was rotting, he was running out hair and he stank of alcohol with a long sword in one hand and a chopped head in another. The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. [Bandit]: What do we have here?!!? A pair of beauty I found! MEN COME I FOUND US SOME LOOT! [Mother]: SHIA!!! RUN!! I''M GOING TO CAST A SPELL RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN! [Shia]: Mother!!! NO I DON''T WANNA LEAVE!! PLEASE NO!!! [Mother]: You need to go honey we don''t have much time. [Shia]: Please mother... no.... [Mother]:It''s alright honey everybody has to go sometime. You must go now please for me. This all happen in a matter of breaths. Suddenly I heard Mother chanting and I need to get away but I couldn''t until mother pushed me with all her strength left. [Mother]: Spirit of the fire, heed my call and come to my aid! Firarga! The fireball the size a table suddenly blew up infront the man and the hut was lit into a blazing inferno. I smelled the skin on the man roasting and heard his screaming agony he looked like something out of a nightmare. He manically went toward my mother swinging his sword and dropping the head in the other hand. I tried protecting my mother but he threw me outside with his other hand. I guess I was lucky that he went toward my mother and threw me outside because the house burst up into flames and mother chanting and the house blew up. Before I realized what happen I heard men yelling in the distance I need to run but I can''t my legs won''t move so I ruthlessly start mauling my legs with my hand to move.After I got my leg moving,I aimlessly ran into the wilderness with tears down on my face. Without even opening my eyes, crashing into trees, falling down on branches until I fell into a river. I was tired and my eyes were getting heavy. I was happy, I thought I can meet my mother if I die. But to my dismay, I woke up in a bed with somebody sleeping on the side of me. She was crushing me with her hug. She smelled nice like the baked goods mother used to made. She also was an elf considering her ear. I was cover in white stripes of bandage for my wounds with a gown of some sort. I saw my dress hanging up and realized what happen. I cried. She noticed I was awake and panicked! She had no clue what was going on. She asked me whats wrong, I didn''t want to talk so I just cried. A few hours passed until I stopped crying I realized what needed to be done. I need to live for mother. Ms.Mia introduced herself and asked me what my name was. [Mia]: Hello, I found you downstream when I was doing laundry you were badly hurt so I picked you up. Are you okay? What''s your name? What happened? How were you so injured? Sorry I don''t specialize in healing magic and I can''t afford to hire somebody from the mage guild. [Shia]:..... [Mia]: Hmmm.... [Shia]:.... Shia [Mia]: Shia? Lovely name, you don''t have to talk if you don''t want to. [Shia]:*nods head* [Mia]: Shia this place is an orphanage you can stay here as long as you need to. We don''t have much and you can only stay till you''re 13. You also have to do chores we don''t feed slackers. [Shia]:*nods head* I been living here for a about a year now, the other children tried to get friendly with me in the beginning but after a couple of days they gave up. I felt sad that I couldn''t connect with them, I don''t know what to do so I just show an indifferent look and carry along. I always did my chores on time and never bother anybody so they seem to ignore me for now. Mia tried to get me out this dress during winter but this was given to me by my mother, so I fought against that, I don''t care how cold it is this is mother last present. On the anniversary Ms.Mia found me she told me happy birthday because she didn''t know when my birthday was. She gave me a picture book about the world. I was happy for a moment till I realize I won''t be sharing anymore birthdays with my mother. I faintly smile to Ms.Mia to show her that I appreciated the gift. She was way too excited jumping around saying she accomplished her goal to make me smile. Before Kenshi got here, I was taking care of Jenny during spring. She was my closest friend in the orphanage even though all she does is cry,eat,poo, and sleep I enjoyed her company. She was enjoying life. When I get to watch Kenshi also I was happy! I got another friend. When the other children push them to me I was ecstatic to have them company me so I took them to the playroom to sit them down so I can read my book. Jenny does what she usually do, sleep. Kenshi on the other hand was acting weird. It looked like he was pointing the stuff and asking me to read it. He was vigorously pointing and looking at me to reply. I didn''t know what to do so I comply. Every time I said a word he seem to smile. Which made me happy. It was time for breakfast but Kenshi was so enamored with book that he seemed to be screaming not yet but oh well. Ms.Mia took Kenshi away after breakfast because it was time for afternoon classes, she told me I can watch him tomorrow again if I liked it. When tomorrow came I couldn''t wait till Ms.Mia gave them to me. I brought Jenny and Kenshi to the playroom again. Before I can get set up the other girls came and told me that, Ms.Mia said to help me out with one of the babies. I was sad, I liked taking care of them but I understand it might be a handful later. They decided to take Jenny so they can play dress up with her. I nodded but I was still sad. Suddenly, I felt something soft and cushy hug me, it was Kenshi I responded by hugging him tightly unexpectedly. It made my heart flutter he understood I was sad. He is mine now. He is my plushie now. Chapter 4:The World. Days, weeks and months passed. I''m now 2 years old accordingly to this world. This world is known as Gaia or Gaea, which was named by a scholar in the past that invented a lot of the technological advancement of this world and mapped most of it. I wonder if he was also transported back from our world because Gaia is something from Greek mythology back on earth. Gaia or Gaea was supposedly borne out of chaos, out of the great empty void of the universe and gave birth to the sea and sky which is pretty unique. The solar calendar for Gaia seemed to be about the same back on earth but a little long. Instead of 24 hours it''s 27, the afternoon is extended by 3 hours. Still 7 days in a week but there''s more days in a year, it''s 380 days now. The season is still the same Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter.Luckily the scholar that came from earth(I hope) name the days as the same on earth so Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. He also named the months the same but just added the extra days into different months, which I am glad for. The time period of Gaia is at 307 MD. MD stands for Magic and Dragons because currently dragons are the strongest creature on this planet beside gods and demi-gods with the most powerful magic capabilities at the moment. Before that was the OG, the Original Gods and before that was B, the Beginning. So in order it was B then OG and now currently MD. Mia told me that every millennial it changes into something that impact the world of Gaia. I also learn from Mia class session about the continents on Gaia so from largest to smallest: 1. Grissa - The continent that which we are currently situated on. It is located in the middle of Gaia which makes it the hub for the most countries, wars, religions, races and many different cultures. The country I am in the moment I forgot.....but I know we''re located by the ocean and it''s a relatively peaceful country because it import most of their goods that other neighboring countries need. Mia told me that neighboring countries won''t attack because of an alliance they had formed to be protected against the Empire. The Grissa continent is rich in resource and has many different landscapes. This is where the human races mainly live and they look like people from earth. 2. Elahiem - Located to the right of Grissa. The continent is mainly fill with species that are in tune with nature. The 2 most important species on this continent is the elves and beastman because they are the largest. They are fill with many different variety of each hybrids between the races. They even have different races of the species like High Elves and Dark Elves. The beastman have 4 major categorization. First are the Feline which consist of panther, lion, and tiger people which consist of human like animal with feline ears and tails sometime they even have claws. Second consist of the Canis which are people with wolves and dog like feature they look fairly like humans but have the characteristic with dog tail and ears. Third consists of Mammaliaformes are mammal shape like people that includes bears and rodent and is difficult to explain the what they look like because it''s such a huge variety of species. Lastly is the Merpeople that consist of species that can live underwater and can usually breathe air they cannot be describe also because that includes too many species. It is filled with mainly forest and lakes. Unauthorized use of content: if you find this story on Amazon, report the violation. 3. Dissigia - Located right under Elahiem and is usually call the demon continent. When we say demons it isn''t usually connoted with anything bad. The races in this continent are usually tribes and nomads and has couple main city where the royal family rules. They are currently have the strongest army of the Gaia because they are so more proficient in mana control. Usually the royal family has the largest mana pool alongside great mana control. Demons looks like human but they have tribal marking when they activate magic or mana the more marking one has the more power they have. It''s place filled with dry humid weather and desert like places with many oasis. 4. Gaes - A floating continent. Usually it hover around the world and we have flying ships to visit them. It consist mainly of avian like species and angel like species. They are usually sought highly by slave owners because they are beautiful creatures. Some people call this place heaven on earth sometime they called it Eden. The cities on this continent is very advanced but the rich and poor can be clearly seen. 5. Ark - Located to the left of the Grissa mainly filled with barbarians and dwarves. The barbarians are larger than most human they average the normal height of 7 ft or 2.1 meters they are closely related with the giants on this continent but they are a hundred times bigger. Dwarves male have a unique gene that makes that grow facial hair easier than most human and is usually shorter. The female version just have thicker hair. The dwarves have built huge underground kingdoms because of the huge riches in the mountains. This place is consistently snowing and have many mountain ranges which is frigid to the weak. 6. Dragul - Located under Ark this is where the Dragnewts lived. They are a subspecies of dragon that lived on this continent also. They consider themselves the strongest species and they can talk with dragons. They are consider are a proud race and respectable race but they can get themselves into troubling because of pride. Humanlike but have dragonlike ears and are usually more fit than humans sometime they even have wings which is not rare. Tropical like climate like the amazon. 7. Shura - The dark continent. Not much is known and is usually the frontier of adventures and exploring. This is where adventure looks to make their riches or explore unknown lands. Located above Grissa. 8. Una - Located under Dissigia a continent that is usually cover with mist and cannot be invaded upon with the natural barricade. Never have been explore by outsiders by the Scion races usually make trips to Grissa for trading and information gathering. The Scions called themselves the chosen few because they contain a huge mana pool compare to humans. Almost identical to humans but have a crystal embedded into their forehead since birth the shape, size and color determine the mana pools and element they possess. They were the most interesting to me. I have also grasped the basic language of Gaia. The language that me and Mia are speaking is called the Brahiem which is widely used on Gaia from what I heard from Mia. Other places has different dialect and some have unique languages depending on races like the Beastmen and Elves but they also know Brahiem. Hmm my eyelids are getting droopy there''s still so much to tell....... Chapter 5: Goals and Ambition. Hmmm....what do we have here? *poke* *poke* hehe. *squeeze* *Furrow brow* FueFueFue. He''s still not awake, I can hug as long as I want now. Still so soft. *sniff sniff*. He smell so sweet somehow. *idly staring at Kenshi, while playing with his hair, using her finger to curl up Kenshi hair* He still has that indifferent look when people look at him. I wonder what''s he thinking most the time. I noticed that he just daydream most of the time because he always reply with a smile shaking his head as to say he was doing nothing when I ask him what he was doing, I wish he was thinking of me though. Some of the children are even calling him mute because he only nods to them or write to them with his small chalkboard he got for birthday by Ms.Mia. But I heard his voice! So did Ms.Mia and Jenny. It was a sweet voice that has a lovely tone with it like candy. His voice was so vibrant and with life, that it makes you smile if you heard it. We only heard because he said Thank you to Ms.Mia. But he doesn''t talk anymore, I don''t know why. He usually carry the small chalkboard with him to say what was he thinking. Did he get more pretty? *tilt head* Uwahhhh so pretty~ The children are referring him to as the porcelain doll because of his beautiful his pale skin with his silver whitish hair and no expression face. Some of the newer children doesn''t even know that he''s a boy. Uwahh *squeeze* Ughh, am I still getting hug. I woke up a while ago but I was pleasantly enjoying this sensation...Wait does this make me a loli-lover!??! *thinking furiously* Hmmmph, I think that''s enough Ms.Mia said she be teaching Kenshi about magic today. Ms.Mia was reluctant to teach him about magic because he was too young but he kept nudging her and I think she crumble to his cuteness, who wouldn''t. But she tried to make it difficult for him, he had to pass all the exams she gave him and if he somehow pass he can only practice magic if I''m around or when she''s around. To her shock he passed all the exams with flying colors, of course he''s my plushie who can do anything. Ms.Mia was sulking for quiet a bit, her pride seem to be damage also because of that. [Shia]: Kenshi...Kenshi.... Wake up Ms.Mia is calling you. WHOSE INTERRUPTING MY THOUGHTS I''M IN A VERY IMPORTANT MOMENT. Oh It''s Shia. [Kenshi]:Shia......? NO GODDAMIT I MADE A MISTAKE!! Last time I said something I was cuddle to death and was poke nonstop by Ms.Mia, Jenny, and Shia. WHAT HE SAID MY NAME! HE WAS THINKING OF ME! *Jumping around and swinging Kenshi* OH GOD LET ME DOWN! Grabbing Shia hand and pointing down. Uwahh~~ He''s grabbing my hand. Oh wait he doesn''t look good. [Shia]: Do you want to go down? *Nods furiously* [Shia]: Okay... and Ms. Mia is waiting for you in her office. One more hug won''t hurt. Why is she still hugging me.. Well I don''t mind, she smell so nice and very soft... WAIT THIS IS NOT GOOD I''M NOT GOING INTO THAT TERRITORY AGAIN! I need hold on to my strong conviction, I will not fall to the power of the lolis. I will wait till she''s 18 but wait that''s too long... Well it should be fine when I''m 16 right? She be 22 but will she think I''m just a kid? Hmm I still have Jenny we would both be 16 at the same time but my mental age be higher, that won''t do I got to wait till she''s 18, I still have my moral codes. I wonder what about Mia.. am I being a bit too greedy? No, no, no I have to be greedy this is my second chance and I won''t squander it again. So on the list is Shia,Jenny and Mia to conquer, ooops I mean love. Mia might be the trickest but I''m not letting her go. The author''s narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon. [Kenshi]: *Writes* Let''s go to Ms.Mia office. Hmm why does she hold my hands? Seem like she is growing dependent on me and developing a yandere (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=yandere) feel somehow... this is not good.. Mia told me about Shia and how she came to the orphanage. Apparently they found her hurt downstream by the nearby river while doing laundry. I asked Shia about this and she didn''t want to talk about until she gave up. Her story was a sad one but it was common one in this world apparently. Also she had that useless father she never met. I need to do something about that dependent problem later when I grow older but for now it should be fine.. There''s so many problems in this world I need to fix, I need to do add it to the list later. I started to make a to-do list because if I didn''t I would have wasted my second chance. What were they again.. Let''s organize them again. 1. I need to conquer as many girls as possible, I mean love as many girls as possible. The most important goal for my reincarnation. 2. I need to grow strong enough to protect my loved ones and protect myself. Justice without power is just empty words. 3. I will make an only female kingdom...no that''s not impossible... fine 2/3 female.... no no that''s too much male already.. I will figure something out later. 4. I need to make money as soon as possible. This orphanage is in dire straits. I can solve the rest of my problems with enough money. 5. I need to know if I can make better or home food from earth. Right now everything I taste is bland... Hmm let''s see I can do 2 and 4 right now. For number 2 I been physically training a bit every time I''m awake in the morning. I woke earlier than most the kids so I have been doing a bit of calisthenics (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calisthenics) which are great for kids but I should start adding weight soon to improve my stamina and strength. I''m also practicing all my martial arts and military training secretly I don''t know how advance this world martial arts and military tactics are so I need to keep them a secret for now. Number 4 should be pretty easy for me with all the knowledge I have from earth, making money should be no problem. This world seem to be at the medieval age, they shouldn''t know about crop rotation or fertilizer yet right... I wonder also if they have chess... I need more information about this world for my plan to set in motion. Oh we''re here already. *Knock Knock* Author Note: If you guys find any errors or anything let me know, I will fix it or if a sentence is worded weirdly. Thank you for reading~
