"Bern.... Bern....."
Wacth heard the name of a stranger in his ear. He opened his eyes. He thinks he's in the hospital or in heaven.
But who entered his view was not a crowded hospital scene but a room like a dormitory. Dormitory that looks like a medieval that is not luxurious.
"Hey get up, you still have to work even if you're so hit."
The young man who had not even lived half his age spoke softly to him.
"In ma- !!?"
Wacth was shocked to hear his voice sounding like a child just past puberty. He also saw his smooth hand without any scarring and only had a few calluses possible due to work.
His muscles also disappeared leaving small muscles that are only in possession when a lot of work is not exercise.
"Who am I?"
Wacth asked the little boy who saw her with a pitiful look.
"Have you lost your memory because of your family's banishment? You are Bern Kailyth, 16 years old. You just dumped your family. I'm your dorm roommate, Antonio Will. You can call me Anton. We've only been in contact for 3 days. You should go to work now. You owe 1 million gold for entering Luxana's academy."
From what Wacth heard, he was a poor, abandoned little boy. Her brown hair and eyes showed her status.
"Already, don't think about your trash family. You have to look ahead."
Anton gently patted Bern's still-silent shoulder.
"I'm fine. Where do I work?"
Anton rounded his eyes and smiled gently.
"I'll send you."
Anton gently wakes up and is like persuading Bern. Wacth got out of bed and started cleaning himself.
'What is this always talking about as a second life? If it were, I'd live longer this time.'
A soft smile was etched on the mirror. It was a smile full of gratitude.
'Thank you for this body. I wish you had a good life somewhere else, Bern Kailyth.'
Bern bowed to the mirror as if to thank him.
****
The Exal workshop.
A woman with stout muscles and a height of 2 meters greeted him. He seems to be the boss of the workshop.
"Basic is shameless! They forced you to work since you could walk! Now they're throwing you away because you owe me!? They deserve to die!"
The woman's loud voice was simply ignored by everyone. Exal Workshop was a famous workshop in Joy city with a very beautiful and powerful sword. Also everyone knew Bern and pitied him.
"When you first work here, let's start with a pile of useless iron."
The woman patted Bern's shoulder so hard that Bern felt pain. Everyone there made him look like a kid. Their muscles and height are not something that can be made of joking material.
Bern was also grateful he only needed to forge a pile of iron. He needs to train himself before he does anything. He could use a sword but could not forge a sword.
"Please teach."
Politely, Bern bowed and everyone ignored the formal greeting and began to teach him various things.
****
For a week, Bern continued to forge or sharpen the sword. He's good enough with that.
"Everybody bow!!!"
The boss screamed and everything bowed 90 degrees. A person with golden hair and red eyes descended from the horse. That alone showed the identity of that person.
Crown prince, Kleio Mark. The successor of the Sun kingdom.
The golden hair shows a bright sun and the red eyes show the ferocious nature of the sun.
He came down and stopped in front of Bern.
"Why would someone suitable become a magician, forging a sword?"
Bern just bowed and was silent. It was an unpleasant meeting.
