During the day is quite bright, the number of clouds in the sky makes it feel comfortable to see. Now it is spring, the villagers of Kukuh are currently harvesting wheat from their fields.
A boy who is now twelve years old. His name was Fido Nicholas. He was walking alone on the edge of the road, the road was about two meters wide, there was a lot of grass growing on the edge of the road, also small stones will be seen every time the boy steps his feet.
There were vegetable plantations on both sides of the road, but no one was there because most of them were in the fields.
Fido carried the basket in his right hand. The basket contained food for his father who was working in the fields. He always does this every day during the harvest season. It was a very easy job, he had never encountered any problems while doing it.
However, today something strange happened to him.
“Ahk Aaaghhh!!” he screamed while touching his forehead.
Be ill. The pain suddenly appeared in his head. Really sick. It was like being hit by a very big hammer and you didn't know where the punch came from.
Why...this?
Fido began to feel dizzy, his body staggered and he eventually fell. He was still conscious, but his gaze was now fading and his consciousness was also slowly disappearing. The clouds he saw in the sky started to look blurry then everything turned dark.
It hurts, it's weird too, I should be in a very healthy condition right now, I don't think I have a history of any diseases either? But, why? Where did this painful feeling come from?
What the hell is going on with him? Fido wondered before he finally fainted.
&
Moments later she woke up again, but she immediately felt the same pain in her head.
“Adu-du-du-duh ... SAKIITT!! AAAGH!!” He got up and held his head with both hands.
This time he did not faint, the pain actually began to decrease then slowly disappeared somewhere. But he still felt a little dizzy. He's fine now. Might as well.
Fido massaged and groped every part of his head. He realized the pain was not from a physical attack, but it was coming from inside his own head. Now he felt his brain shift a little, but it was just his feeling.
“What the fuck is that, damn it. Eehh ..., this is where, well?” While massaging his fist he also looked around. “Oh yes, I am passing through the gate to another world and ... ” He then saw a basket lying nearby.
Whatisthis?
“Oh right, I have to deliver this food to Dad immediately.” Fido worriedly checked the contents of the basket.
It seemed like the food inside was still in good condition, so Fido felt calm again, he stood up and lifted the basket. He intended to continue his journey, but when he was about to step up, he stopped. He realized there was something strange about him.
“Dad? Eh? My voice? ” She shuts her mouth, “wait-wait. Huh?” his face began to be confused.
Fido put his basket back on the ground.
Wait a minute, where am I now? Aaah...no, what am I talking about? eh, this? could it?
A cold sweat started popping up on his face, his mind was chaotic. As if he understood but also did not understand. He gulped and then wiped away every sweat. He then looked at both of his palms, fumbled at his face, then pinched his own cheeks.
You're sick, not a dream?
At that moment he realized that he was not in his own body. What the hell does this mean? He himself did not understand.
At this moment new memories began to appear in his head. As the memories of the two different people began to fuse together, it made his head return to feel pain, but not as painful as before.
“Ugh ... Why is this so!?” He said in panic.
S-seriously? Huh huh? It shouldn't be like this, right? My real body, what's missing? My sword? My element spirit? My shield? My armour? All my gear, WHERE IS IT!?
His head began to daze with such a question. His heart rate was getting louder as well as his breathing that began to irregular.
“Just calm down guys, calm~ You'll be okay okay? Right, right?” Even so, his voice sounded trembling.
Breathe out, breathe out, breathe out, breathe out.
Fido began to set his breath to calm down. His body slumped down like a melted candle, he sat back down.
He pondered for a moment while watching his surroundings, trying to calm his chaotic mind. After a few minutes of contemplation he finally felt a hint of calmness.
“So, yes... haha... So it's like that? I understand.” Fido nodded doubtfully to himself.
He was still staring at the surrounding grass, he stared at the distant clouds above his head. A light breeze began to blow around him, shaking his now black hair.
As Fido looked at the sky, his face revealed a wry smile.
“This... isn't this bad?” Say it to himself.
It seems, I have died then I reincarnated into the body of this child. Her thought. So I'm dead, huh? Am I dead? Did ya?
He did not believe it at all, but of course, what he was going through now made him have to think like that.
All he knows now is that he's in this kid's body and everything has fused together. Put together! his mind was fused into one. At first it felt strange but then he felt it would be fine. It seemed like the two minds had reconciled.
Fido again looked around, then he found his basket again.
“Huft ... For now I have to drop off this food, or dad will scold me.” He picked up his basket then stood up to continue his delayed journey. He decided to think about the problem while walking.
Fortunately, he is now alone. If there were other people around it it would probably make her panic even more and create a troublesome problem. Fortunately also today her sister decided not to help her, if she was here she would think that her brother had gone crazy.
“Well it must be.”
As Fido thought about his past he discovered the oddity. He could not remember his own name or the names of others. He had tried to dig into his memory forcefully, yet it made his head hurt, so he stopped. The new memories that appear are also very random and sometimes unclear or even not connected to his brain, it makes him more frustrated and dizzy. But the strangest thing was that he didn't remember his own name, wasn't that stupid? Yeah, very stupid.
“Maybe I have to wait, one day it will definitely appear by itself, right? I just need to let these memories flow through my brain. That's it.” He murmured while continuing to walk.
“But will it be okay? My brain won't explode, will it?”
I guess I should sort it out little by little. Her thought.
I came into this world through the gate of the world made by my friend, that is the only thing I still remember clearly. The gate I used was the second gate my best friend made. The first gate was truly successful and without problems. I have or even used it often to go to another world. That's why I think this gate will also be successful and safe.
But, this one gate seemed to be a success as well, only, only my soul made it through. I don't know where or what happened to my body. That's really a problem. It's all because of that gate, damn it. I think too trusting that friend is not good, why is this thing of his creation not in accordance with what he said?
Fido breathed a heavy sigh.
No, it wasn't his fault. After I remember, wasn't the gate not perfect? Maybe this is one of the risks of an imperfect gate? It's all my fault I'm just being unlucky, or maybe I'm actually lucky? because I have reincarnated even though I am dead. Might? No, I'm dead? Seriously? That .... is still hard to believe, is it that easy to die? Just because of that gate? Ah but .. This has already happened, that's the fact.
Well, death really wasn't in my thinking before. He sighed again.
Fido continued walking while thinking about it, until he arrived near the field, he finally stopped. He could see his father from where he stood. It seems he is waiting for her.
Okay, I have to act like usual, right?
A man with a face that seemed to be in his 35s approached Fido. His name was Fredrick Nicolas.
“Not usually until this long, did something happen?”
“Sorry, I just enjoyed the view for a while.” Fido replied with a smile, he then handed over his basket.
“Yes already then, you look fine, come on.”
Fredrick took his basket and invited Fido to come along, but as he was about to turn around Fido called out to him.
“Anu, dad? I want to go play for a while. Anyway I've also eaten at home, ”
Right now I need a place alone to think about this matter of reincarnation. He murmured in his heart.
“So? Where are you going?”
“Yaa...., there is actually a place I want to go to—”
“Don't go to the forest, I won't allow you.” Frederick said with suspicion.
“No, I have no intention of going there, I swear.”
Even though Fredrick knew Fido would not dare to go to the forest he kept saying that. Lately there were many powerful monsters that started to roam around the forest, perhaps that was what made him even more worried.
Fido actually thought that the forest would probably be a suitable place for him to continue thinking about his problem. There were rarely people there, so he did not have to worry that anyone would see him. He knew his father would say that because of his worries, so he tried to court the best he could in order to trick him.
“Alright then, be careful, and also do not go home too late okay?.” After saying that Fredrick turned around leaving Fido.
“Thank you, then see you, dad,” Fido said as he waved his hand. You're a very nice man, dad. I feel guilty after lying to you.
“Yah!”
Hearing that Fido turned his back on his father, then began to walk away from the fields. After getting a considerable distance from the fields, Fido started running towards the direction of the forest.
