Chapter 2: Mysterious person (1/2)
When Du Chan tried to open his eyes, he felt so much pain in his head. It was so painful that he fell unconscious again! After some time, he awakened, but the pain was still there. He tried to endure it to some degree, but whenever he gave an attempt, the pain aggravated even further...
Time naturally passed, and Du Chan woke up again. There was no pain anymore, and his headache had disappeared entirely.
It was like nothing ever happened before, but he still remembered the feeling of his head burning excruciatingly. He finally opened his eyes and found himself lying still in front of the big door.
Du Chan came back to his senses and ran promptly to the orphanage. It had already reached the evening when he was yet unconscious and more than 10 hours elapsed!!.
He hurriedly went straight to his room, speaking none on his way. Afterward came dinner and therefore went to the hall.
He greeted Gu auntie as he always did, all while not showing any signs of discomfort, and finished his dinner fast and went right back to his room to sleep. He was so tired and fell asleep almost instantly.
The next day, Du Chan ate breakfast and went back to the mountains as was his daily routine. Again, he felt someone calling him from the other side of the door when he came upon it for the second time.
Du chan came back before it and tried his hand at opening it. But when he touched the door, he felt pain once again as before, this time coursing through all of his body. It was akin to thousands of needles piercing through his skin and tingling his scratching his bare bones.
His expression grimaced, seeming as to one in immense suffering. But fortunately, it didn't last as long as the last attempt, and he felt refreshed after some minutes.
Feeling content with his progress, he hurried back to the orphanage to catch up with lunch. After eating his fill, he went back to his room and slept.
During that night, he saw a big war brewing in his dream, and he was floating above its battlefield. Suddenly, someone came beside him, and Du Chan couldn't notice him at all. He was watching the war.
It was so big and bloody, and there are so many soldiers, so many people floating around in the air and using what he discerned as martial arts.
The war was like it was otherworldly. Something that Du Chan had never seen the like before, even before his reincarnation.
”OMG!” he expressed himself, the slang of his old world yet memorized.
The only thing Du Chan could think right after seeing the scene of slaughter was the ground filled with blood and countless corpses. His body boiled fiercely at sight, clenching his fist tightly. He had thought deeply, ”I want to become strong!”
Du Chan didn't understand why he had come up with such a conviction like that, but he did it unconsciously nonetheless.
When Du Chan turned his head around, he glimpsed at someone standing right beside him, floating. He was so scared, but the stranger was smiling at him. He had red eyes, black hair, and was wearing a black coat. The man was handsome, graceful, and had a very mysterious aura that even Du Chan could somewhat perceive.
