Chapter 1: Suffering and despair

Gaou…Gaoo…Gaoo…

In the blue sky with the scorching sun and the arid land of red.

There was a group of crows circling around a dead body on the ground. Next to the corpse was a wrecked cart that had crashed into a giant boulder.

This cart had a medieval feel to it. horse-drawn cart. It seems that it had a very big accident. This ended with the death of the horses along with their driver. whose face was smashed into a rock.

At that moment, one of the crows was watching the corpse from above. The crow gathered its strength and went down to the corpse. It slowly and cautiously approached the hand of the corpse. After making sure that everything was fine, it started pecking at the corpse.

Suddenly, the fingers of the corpse’s hand moved, in shabby clothes covered in dirt and blood. And his eyes shivered, calling for him to open them.

His eyes opened in the blink of an eye and he raised his back with an incredible speed, making the crow flee in fear.

Drops of cold sweat appeared on the corpse’s face and its black pupils became, trembling in great fear. He looked around right and left with his face covered by his hand, leaving only his eyes to see the scene from which he was shocked.

“What the hell?! Where am I?!… I remember…Arghhh…” Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly attacked a terrible pain in his head that made him flounder on the ground and scream.

“Arghhh…Arrrrgh…Arg…”

He remained in the same position for a while.

After a while, he took a deep breath and got up with a lot of new information in his mind. After that the pain was over.

“Looks like I died and was revived in this body. Like a fantasy novel.”

“Wow… I didn’t expect that what I was reading would be true.”

The name of the previous owner of the body was ‘Nait’, one of the sons of large families in the city from which he came.

Unfortunately for the owner of a former body to own a very professional driver. The driver collided sideways with a large rock. Which the driver pressed into a piece of paper and made the previous owner of the body fly out of the cart. to hit his head on the ground.

After some thought, Nait looked at the wrecked cart and headed towards it, wanting to examine it.

‘Hmm…a water bag. This will be useful, for I doubt I will not thirst on the way back to the city.’ He took a small leather bag packed with water in the back of the cart box.

‘I have to change clothes. It’s very torn.’ After his body flew and hit a body on the ground, some parts of the clothes were torn to pieces.

After a certain period of time change clothes and drink water. Nait was ready to head back to city.

He tied a water bag around his waist, and covered his head with a piece of cloth to avoid heatstroke. And so I follow the tracks of the wheels and the footsteps of horses.

“Damn it, it’s so hot, my new clothes are already drenched with sweat. I have to hurry to get to city.” Nait said after walking for two hours.

*****

In the middle of an arid region, under high temperature, with strong winds moving dust.

Someone was walking and he was going to fall at any moment. He was ‘Nait’.

After walking for a long time, Nait stopped and took a water bag in his hand towards his mouth and drank the last drop.

‘How hot is this place? Even a camel will fall hours after moving.’ Nait thought.

Yes, it was not the natural heat of a desert, but rather it was as if he was in a steam bath, every second draining his energy.

Nait looked at the bag of water and grew more desperate. “My water has run out and the city is too far away. What should I do?” he said.

“No, I must not give up. It is not like my previous life. I must live this life in my own way. I will not accept that I die in a place like this.” With that, Nait continued walking with willing eyes.

After a while in the midst of the barren place, Nait was walking with crooked steps that seemed like he couldn’t move properly anymore. His face was pale, and his eyes were black, without an iota of life.

Nait spoke with his mouth cracked dry. “Am I going to die again? Chhh…like Such a death? I won’t allow myself to do that.” Keep walking.

“Ugh…f***.”  Nait fell after his legs betrayed him, but he gritted his teeth and stood up again and continued walking.

“I have to keep walking…. panting… whatever it is, I will not accept this death… panting…”

he keep walking….  And he fell… got up… and continued walking.

Nait kept doing this until his legs really couldn’t stand anymore. He ends up lying on the ground with his head to one side with tears evaporating before touching the ground.

He began to blow away the dust with his breath, making his world a blur, though it didn’t bother him, he said to himself ‘It looks like I’m really going to die here… I wasn’t able to get back to the city in the end… What a despicable fate.’  Nate despised himself, and his eyes began to close, asking him for eternal slumber.

At that moment, something appeared to Nait not far from a face that looked like a black-gray square, apparently something written on it.

Nait tried to open his eyes against his will, but all he could do was resist. In the corner of his view, he could see strange writing on it, shaped like a square, only some parts of it were starting to become clear to him so he could see it.

Until he closed his eyes….and went into a deep sleep from which he would never come back again.

*****

In a barren place with a great temperature, there was a dust cloud from afar, and if we got closer we found that it was a cart moving with horses. This cart started off quite luxurious with beautiful embellishments and gold-colored side stripes.

In front of the cart in the driver’s seat were two people, one of whom was carrying a rope, who was completely covered with a brown robe to avoid the high heat and dust, and next to him was another opposite him wearing armor. With a sword hanging around his waist, this armor covered his entire body, and his head was covered with a scarf to avoid dust and high heat.

This armor was riddled with scratches, evidently due to the many battles that this armor had endured, and it was clear that the job of that armored person in the cart was to watch over the cart and protect it from any dangers.

As the cart was moving, he noticed the armored figure in the corner of his view from afar.  Something strange did not know exactly what it was.

After a not very long time he was able to tell that mysterious thing or a mysterious person, after a moment the armored person ordered the driver to stop and check, while a guard was quickly descending.

Inside the cart there was a person who was not very fat, wondering why the cart stopped with a bit of anger on his face. He shouted with all his might, calling the driver to check.

So a few seconds later, someone opened the door. It was the driver, looking at his master who had an expression of curiosity, so he hurriedly said, “Sir, the mercenary told me to stop so I stopped.” His master replied with the disappearance of his anger by saying, “I understand and why?” The driver replied with a bewildered expression, “Sir, it seems that that mercenary found someone who fell not far away.”

Hearing his driver’s reply, some anger appeared in his face again, “Where’s that mercenary telling him to come?”  Hearing his master’s order, the driver went to the mercenary to tell him.

Moments later that driver came back with the mercenaries but there was another guest with them in the back of the Mercenary, and when he saw him he got angry, “What are you doing with a corpse here….Why are you doing things without my orders, didn’t I hire you?”

Mercenary Upon seeing his angry master, he began to say: I have not forgotten that you are my master, but this person is still alive, sir. How do you say I have to leave him… to death?!”

Upon hearing the mercenary response, some veins began to appear on his head, and he began to clench his teeth, saying, “You are you… and what if…. Hmmm?!”

He stopped talking and started to look strangely at that person’s face on the mercenary’s back after noticing it carefully, “Oh?!” He showed a slight smile on his face, and then said to the mercenary, “Well done, hurry up, get him into the cart, and put him on the other side of my place.” The mercenary listened to what his master had to say and said with a big smile on his face, “Yes, sir.”
