KKKS! KKKS! KKKS!

[System rebooting...]

Everything surrounding him was in pure darkness yet he could still see the floating translucent plate ever since his vision went black. With his anger prevailing, he was in the strong edge of throwing the plate away from his face, however, he could not do it while he was in the darkness.

And shortly, in his surprise, the plate was gradually becoming blurry until he could not see it as it had vanished from the dark.

Well, at least that was what Eddra thought.

All of a sudden, the same feeling of the ground moving Eddra sensed when he was in the war started forming the fear in him. Eddra did not want to experience the war anymore, which was the reason why he declined the offer of the mysterious plate.

As the ground stopped moving, and that he was still in the same darkness, Eddra felt relieved. Why would he wish to reset his life? To experience the same hardship when he was in the military? He would rather die.

”Hehe.” Eddra strangely heard a short laugh a minute after the shaking, causing him to knot his eyebrows.

'... I can now feel my eyebrows?'

Following the short laugh, a pain swiftly trailed on his chest, causing him to huff out and had difficulty breathing.

”Ack!” The pain of which pushed his chest down made him open his eyes, and suddenly giving the light way in the darkness resulted in his temporary blindness.

”Who...?” he mumbled while he was waiting for his vision to turn back normal.

”Hehe! Mother, I woke him up! I woke, older brother Ed!” The familiar high-pitched voice of a girl squealed on top of her lungs almost near his ear, which made him unaware of the short ring sound that came from the [System].

As his vision slowly went back to normal, Eddra faced where the familiar voice was coming from but was unexpectedly greeted with the hunting translucent plate.

[Location: Town of Piethe]

”Holy shit!!” As if they were rounding turns, Eddra soon followed and dwelled in with the squealing of his youngest sister. From the appearance of the plate he thought left and blend in along the darkness, Eddra abruptly forgot how to breathe through his nose.

”Older brother...” the cutest of all his siblings called him with her little voice. ”What is holy shit? Are you praying for an angel like what Mother does every night?” she continued then moved forward to him, pervading through the plate in between.

”Stop. Don't move, Allie.” With confusion drawn in her face, Allie instantly stopped after hearing her older brother's command. ”Can't you see this?” she heard him ask, bringing a hand almost on her face.

Creasing her forehead, Allie tilted her head on one side. ”What 'this'...?” As she saw her brother opened his jaw, she immediately knew something was going on. ”... I'm going to see Mother!!”
