Code 101.
Fallen city.
His heart was beating fast to fast, as he heard nothing from outside, only thunder and the sound of heavy rain, part of his mind wanted to stay inside the garden, but his spirit wanted to leave.
Afterall experiencing the same scenario again and again, each time... He was tired, and sacred, and there was no guarantee, that he will survive, if he stayed inside, water might flood, and in that kind of situation, most dangerous place is none other than, a place filled with comfort and peace.
No sound, no monster, only his shaking hands, after the rock landed outside, "this is not a good sign!...".
Fuck this hand, stop shaking dame it!!.
He stared at the empty space beside the tree who was in fifty meters away from his spot, thinking looking at the space about his survival and what's come next.
Because of hunger, his mind was going crazy, he could not think straight..
Chances were zero, future of his survival was zero, but there was no place he can return, inside the dream there's no going back, only move forward if you want to live.
Well he can't really go back even if he wants to, because the mist of dead mana was becoming stronger, with no vision, he might encounter something more dangerous.
Other places, who come before the garden, they were already devoured by the mist, it was like a wall, left side of garden was covered in a wall like mist, a forbidden area, other side, the right one was clear, but it won't stay clear for long, mist was moving, "Now what?, i know I'm going to die!, but only one exit again, there's no other place where I can go".
And if he want to survive he have to pass through same path again. "but!, knowing that only my death awates for me in that path, i.... I just can't bring myself to".
He tightens his fist, even his fist was covered in sweat, he thought. I am sweating to much.. but I can't do anything about it, I'm sacred and this nervousness killing me, he takes a deep breath, "huuuuf", but even after taking one deep breath, his was still nervousness, and with anger he bits his lips.
Mist was slowly coming closer, and soon, it might become flooded, because rain, she was giving obvious sign of danger he thought. No!, now or never, i don't know how long it has been since I've been trapped inside of my own dream?.
I can't waste any more of my time, i don't know how much time have passed in real world!?.
Compared to young man whose body he was in, his life was totally different, he was alone, no one was in his life who cared about him, he was orphan, no parents, no friends, even his relationship didn't worked out, living in his apartment, just counting days, and passing them, like a task, he was waiting for his death.
Reading was his hobby, reading those fantasy books, he always thought, how amazing would be if he were reincarnate in fantasy world, although he never thought, that his wish will come true like this, in a world like this.
But on the other hand, young man, his life was different.
Young man have family in real world, but unlike young man, him!, he never got to experienced something called family, young man's family doesn't know, that their son, brother, friend, is already dead.
But him who took over his body, he wanted to take responsibility of them, wanted to live with his new found family, who is wating for him on the other side, in reality.
I don't know his family is even looking for him or not?, they don't know about him trapping himself, i can't leave them, I am now him, they're my family, i was alone, but in this life, i don't want to be alone anymore!, although i don't know, if this guy have lover or not?, i don't know!, but knowing someone is wating for him, I can't give up yet.
It started to become dark, and sound of those insect like monster was near, coming from the opposite direction.
"I don't know if there's even future for me, in this world?".
"But i can't betray the life he has given me". Because now i need to, i have to take this risk again!.
"And I am going to risk everything!!!!!!".
Taking one step closer to exit nervously he holds his breath with fear.
I already died three times, I'm not scared of death anymore, i can survive again and again.
And he steps outside of the garden, taking one step at the time, he looked at his surroundings carefully, his eyes were wide open serching for that tentacle monster in every corner, but!, he finds nothing.
Monster wasn't there, nor any being, rain was still awake, there was no hint of rain stopping anytime soon, instead rain was getting stronger, blood started to become thick.
He stood infront of the shop, slowly adjusting his clothes and his movement, slowly breathing, he looked at the street light in front of him, surprisingly it was broken.
He stops, as he sense something unusual. "What?, this light, it wasn't broken before!, so how?, why?", "i have died three times... But never once i saw that light like this".
And he realised something more suspicious, as he felt the rain, on his body, "even this rain, something is wrong!", and then as he took another breath, he felt sudden chill.
He turns his gaze, and finds nothing, sound of river was also getting stronger, it was loud, like it was about to overflow and devoured the street any moment.
He was scared, not because of monster anymore, he was scared, because this was completely different from the before, sky started to show different types of patterns, there was a moon, but!, moon was covered in shade of cloud.
And coming across the strange things again and again, he was finally out from the range of that garden, even the shop wasn't visible anymore.
But he still yet to cross the river and that tentacle monster was still hidden or not there on that place anymore, it was like complete mystery right now, even though he was scared, but he did not cared, only thing matters to him was the survival.
He wanted to live.
Even though he had tried to eat insect monster of dead mana, but because he couldn't bring himself to swallow that flesh, he was still hungry, his stomach was fighting against him.
He wants to eat something, but, his spirit wants to leave the place fast, and going against him, his mind was not listening to him.
Walking through the streets of fallen city, he came across the tree filled with fruit, but!, they were clearly the strange like poisonous, or rotten one.
Countless Bule fruit, covered in shadow like stripes of black and red colour, diped in a blood that has been falling from the sky, seeing those fruit his mind started to fight, and so he lost.
"Why!?, I'm already scared because of this situation!, and this fucking mind of mine going against me".
He placed his hand on his stomach looking towards those sweet like fruit. "Even this stomach, I'm trying my best to survive not to get caught by the tentacle monster again", fruit were making him lose his control.
Those fruits were releasing the some kind of spacial sweet scent, "but!, I'm hungry to, one fruit, only one fruit, eating one won't make any change in my current situation".
He looked around for his safety, to make sure there was no, or not other kind of monster lurking right now, because tentacle monster was unpredictable, getting eaten alive by him was a nightmare for him, and other concern was that the sound of river was getting stronger.
And his mind was now calm and clear, like it has won the fight of hunger against it's own owner, although his physical body was also not in a good condition, but to survive, he was pushing himself to the limit, scared smiling.
Afterall dying doesn't mean end, atleast not in this world.
"Even though I'm now the owner of this body, it's mine now, it's me, myself!, real me... Who's controlling********************...".
Thinking about himself, he throws the rock like fragments of scattered solid state made of blood drops at fruit, he throws three of them, and finally one hits the fruit.
Fruit falls onto the ground, but it didn't break, he grabs that fruit, and with hesitation, he takes a bite.
And as he did, he feels something behind him, cold and sharp, chilling aura run down through his body, mana surrounded him slowly, and that mana, he could never forget even if he wants to, it was the gaze of tentacle monster, and that mana belongs to him.
He drops the half eaten fruit in fear, "Dame it, i knew it", he turns his head, monster was smiling, watching looking at his prey, and in a instent, his lower body was gone.
Only thing he could see before his fourth death, was the smiling face filled with desire for blood and flesh, looking at him the tentacle monster slowly eats his lower body.
He was looking at the monster, and seeing his body get eaten by monster, it was painful to see, but!, realising that this time monster was not eating him one by one, one body part at the time.
Tentacle monster covered in bloody rain, his body was like mist of darkness, monster was powerful, and huge body only visible half, other part of his body, lower one was inside the ground, covered in his mana.
He growled, with blurry vision he shouted, in process he made his mouth messed in blood, his vision fades, with crazed laughter "Awakening!, wait till awakening yofucks!!!!!!... Ikilllllyou.... Forure.....".
But tentacle monster didn't budge, he continued to eat his lower body, slowly, looking at him, enjoying his blood, using his dead mana to crush his other half, although he was still concious, though no vision, and mist made his death fast, loosing his blood and mind disconnecting, because of shock.
In that moment of death, he still made a vow to kill him, more painfully, like him.
