Become A Human In Another World
ACT6: PAST FOR THE FUTURE - PROLOGUE
Right now, Liu Xiu's consciousness was still in a room, which Kei said that it was in his heart. Meanwhile, Yuan Yi and the members of Black Eyes were searching for Liu Xiu, following the trail that Liu Xiu had left behind on every street.
Liu Xiu lost his consciousness, upon touching the stone pillar.
But, Liu Xiu himself was unaware of her, as he did close his eyes while touching the gem pillar, so he did not know there was any difference there.
However, Liu Xiu felt a light feeling within his body, like he was floating somewhere.
BRUK!!!
A loud voice rang out, as Liu Xiu felt pain in some parts of his body. It was strange according to Liu Xiu, as he was quite confident in his endurance. Moreover, just falling down with a height that was not too fast, Liu Xiu felt that his body did not have to be this sick.
"Adu du du duh.." whispered Liu Xiu quietly, complaining of pain.
He tried to get up, but he was a little surprised, when he realized that the pain was gone, and even he felt it had never existed.
Slowly, Liu Xiu opened his eyes. But there was too much light coming into his eyes, making Liu Xiu close his eyes again, wait for a moment for his eyes to get used to, and just open them again.
("But strange. I seemed to be in a dark place earlier, but the light I saw was too bright for that place.") Liu Xiu asked inwardly, puzzled.
("That means I can conclude, I was taken somewhere else, right?") convinced Liu Xiu, while slowly opening his eyes.
He immediately opened his eyes and was already preparing for something shocking, but what appeared in his field of view had shocked him.
The shady trees, the white clouds that were marching, and the vast blue sky looked beautiful as he opened his eyes.
In disbelief, Liu Xiu woke up, changing his position to sit down. He deserves to see a vast meadow. It's not too broad, but you could say it's really beautiful.
"Here, I seem to know her." whispered Liu Xiu quietly, as he began to stand up, looking around.
But after all, he felt a strangeness as he stood up. This feeling, like he's becoming small?
"My body?" back, Liu Xiu was astonished when he saw her different body. You could say, the height changes, although not too significant. But the muscles in her hands as well as her body were reduced, but strangely she felt full of strength.
Liu Xiu was silent for quite a while. He was looking around, trying to understand what was happening now.
"I don't understand, but it's like it's my body, but it's my old body" Liu Xiu said after analyzing his own body.
Yep. Liu Xiu realized it.
This was the body when Liu Xiu was still using the name Ren Larvest. In other words, he returned to the time where he was still around 10. A little weird, indeed. But that was what he believed as he looked around once more.
He was a little curious if he could use magic at this time, but he undoed his intention because remember, when he was a child his magic capacity was too large, to damage his own body.
He walked over, finding a large shady tree, where he had fallen asleep under this tree earlier.
Liu Xiu touched the tree, feeling an ordinary feeling that was in his hands. Not only that, she somehow felt nostalgic.
"Hummmmd. From the feeling I touched this tree, it all felt very real. I tried to pinch my cheek, and it also hurt. I haven't tried to hurt myself, but I'm sure I can get hurt, too. It will be troublesome to heal her later, so I won't do that." Liu Xiu said at length.
Whatever it was, he concluded this was a dream world. But, Liu Xiu did not understand how could this dream feel so real.
"Then why am I here? Wasn't I going to enter a Dungeon?" ask Liu Xiu.
He was silent for a moment, leaning against the tree, pensive.
The wind blew slowly, like stroking Liu Xiu's cheek gently. It also flicked Liu Xiu's hair slightly, also moving the leaves of the tree, forming a beautiful natural music.
"I haven't heard this for a long time, at least I enjoyed it first" Liu Xiu said with a smile.
He then closed his eyes, feeling every feeling that flowed in his body.
??
Liu Xiu sensed the presence of people walking towards here. But, he did not feel the hostility of this person, instead a breath of excitement came from him. But what worried Liu Xiu was not that.
"Ughs.... It seems like my detector is still too small at the moment." Liu Xiu whispered softly, complaining small.
Since this was his body when he had not trained hard enough, it could be said Liu Xiu had not developed too much. No, it was actually him now, Ren was stronger than Liu Xiu in the time when Liu Xiu entered the dungeon.
Only, Ren was now stronger just because of his magic alone.
He sat down and went back to his sleeping position like he had come here. According to him, returning everything as before is a good thing.
Meanwhile, the sound of footsteps grew clearer and clearer, as well as the sound of someone's rapid breathing coming closer as well.
From her voice, she was a woman, with an age that was not much different from Liu Xiu at this age, 8-10 years.
("I don't know who it is, but I have to stay alert.") Liu Xiu tried to convince his heart.
Until finally the person arrived next to Liu Xiu, with a slightly stingy breath. But after seeing Liu Xiu who was lying quietly, Liu Xiu could hear the relieved voice of that person.
"It turns out you're here, Ren!" said the person quietly, while starting to sit next to Liu Xiu.
?!
("Well, for this body, I'm sure I'm Ren Larvest. So I have to be me in the past?") asked Liu Xiu, who now returned to being Ren inwardly.
Ren didn't answer anyone's question just now, because he was lying, apparently asleep.
She could hear the prickly shoes of the person who called her earlier, like she was sitting next to Ren, slightly stroking her hair.
("This touch..") Ren remembered something, which made him want to immediately open his eyes.
But Ren knew, it couldn't be done. However, he tried to get up as naturally as possible, so that the person who stroked his head was not suspicious.
"Mmmm...." Ren moved slightly starting to open his eyes.
"Ahh, you're awake." the soft voice was heard again, raising her small hand from Ren's head.
Ren shifted his gaze for a moment, as if trying to prepare himself. Because, there was only one person who said that when he accidentally woke Ren.
("It's impossible, isn't it?!") ren shouted in his heart.
Despite his disbelief, Ren tries to turn his body around, looking at his interlocutor.
"I'm sorry, I woke you up, huh?" ask that figure.
An Elf with soothing blonde hair and her beautiful little body. Her cute face, with cute clothes make her really charming.
And there was only one person who had such a description.
It was a person Ren knew very well. The person who was already very close to her, even she had planned to live with her, and some of her other things.
But, Ren was actually shaking at the figure. Not that he was scared, he was just confused. Until her body shook, and even her tears flowed from the corner of her face.
"Eh, Ren? Why are you crying? Did you see a nightmare?" ask the figure with a troubled face.
Hearing that, Ren could not help but cry. His mouth was still trembling, but he could already say a few words.
"K-k-you... S-Shi-Syila??" asked Ren slowly, stammered.
"Ehh, what are you talking about? Are you playing pretend to forget memories like that? Yep. It's Syila. Syila Royze, child of Childe Royze, you know?" said the figure, Syila aambutt with a ruffled waist.
Apparently, he was playing with Ren, like following the charade that Ren was playing.
Hearing that, Ren really couldn't help himself anymore.
He lowered his face, facing down. She tried to cover her face that was filled with tears, because she was crying really hard this time.
"Heh, Ren? Why?" syila was still confused.
"S-Silah!!!" said Ren slowly, moving, slightly jumping at Syila who was sitting down, staring at Ren in confusion.
"I miss you so much!!" ren said, after jumping and hugging Syila with all her might, hugging her like she would never let go again. Naturally, Syila who was hugged like that was confused, because she felt that Ren was not as usual.
"D-ahh!! Ren! A-a-a what are you doing? Why did you come to be so brave? Ahh, that's not what I meant. What are you doing?" asked Syila in surprise.
His speech became stuttering, and his face also became bright red, receiving Ren who had suddenly jumped up and hugged him!
But, Ren did not let go of Syila, instead hugging her tighter.
Syila immediately understood, and did not move anymore. She understood a little, and hugged Ren back, while slightly stroking Ren's back gently.
"Yes. It's me, Syila. Don't worry, I'm here. Yosh yosh's! Good boy good boy." said Syila slightly toying with Ren. But Ren who still hugged Syila did not care about her, instead hugged Syila tighter.
Long enough they were in that position, at least until Ren's cry subsided, and began to release his embrace on Syila.
Syila was a little lost back then, but remembering she thought of such a strange thing made her face turn red, and she shook her head quickly.
He looked towards Ren who was still trying to control himself, while still holding both of Syila's hands.
"Ren.." whispered Syila slowly.
But, Ren seemed to lose his focus, and grasped and stroked Syila's hand, like he had long wanted to do so. Although it is true that Ren has not done it for a long time, it still confuses Syila.
But seeing that, Syila understood a little. He's known Ren for a long time. He knew, Ren was really keeping his image while in front of Syila, so it was impossible for Ren to suddenly cry loudly in his arms like that.
Syila knew, something seemed to happen to Ren, and stroked his wrist.
"What's up, Ren? What the hell's going on? Did you have a bad dream?" ask Syila with attention.
Ren who was still looking at her hand, which was grasped tightly by Syila was slightly startled and conscious. He took a momentary breath, gathering strength to look at Syila's face.
"Nightmare?" ren asked slowly, followed by a questionable face from Syila.
Ren immediately recalled, the terrible events that happened, as he went to Furyuun. And the incident that made her cry and hug Syila for so long like that. It wouldn't be wrong if Ren called it all a nightmare.
"Yes. I had a very horrible dream. It's so horrible, I guess I could die of fright because of that." said Ren, smiling gently.
