The Another Soul
Ch. 21

'*Hahaha.... Sergio, your face is full of mud.'

'Eh?'

A little boy touched his face and realized what the girl before him was saying was true.

'Mira! I'll reply you!'

The little boy, Sergio he threw a handful of mud at the girl in front of him. The girl just laughed happily and avoided every mud throw.

'No need! Bweee....'

The girl, Mira poked her tongue towards Sergio. Sergio who saw it became annoyed.

'Sergio.... Are you really a man.'

'uh? Whatchu mean?'

'Soally... You are so weak.'

Sergio who heard it made him even more upset.

'Oh. HERE YOU!'

Sergio running. Currently they are both leafy in the river with a fairly calm flow of water. They play in parts that are not too deep, only until as they are. They usually play here without anyone bothering them.

But it was a mistake Sergio ran. He fell down from stepping on a mossy rock, he fell into a deep river. Sergio can't swim anymore.

'Sergio!'

Mira who saw him panicked. Mira jumped into the river. He saw Sergio who was trying to get back to the surface, but instead of going up, Sergio drowned again.

Mira just dived straight at Sergio. He dives fast like a professional swimmer. After he touched Sergio's wrist.

Sergio who was still trying to get to the surface fell silent after seeing Mira.

He immediately pulled Sergio, bringing Sergio to the surface.

'BWAHH... uhukk...'

Sergio after getting to the surface instantly coughed. He was breathing fast, his nose and throat were sore.

As for Mira, she was squeezing her wet clothes.

'Hmph..! How can a boy not be good?'

Mira's words were cut off because of the sound of a slow stuffing. Mira looked at Sergio with a confused look.

'Why are you crying?'

'Hiks... Hix.... HUWAAA....!'

Instead of answering, Sergio cried. His crying voice was very loud. Mira who saw him was getting confused.

'Eh? Why is she crying.'

Sergio didn't care what Mira said. He was still crying, finally Mira approached Sergio.

'Okay, so who looks old here?'

Not answering, Sergio is still crying.

Mira rolled her eyeballs, then she snorted.

'Of course I'm older.'

Mira hugged Sergio. He also stroked Sergio's head gently. Then Mira whispered something in Sergio's ear.

'So like this, the man who will marry me in the future*?'

"Mira...!"

Eh?

I looked around me, and found myself inside the purple crystal dome. I don't see anyone here.

I touched my head, and I felt I touched a rather rough cloth, what bandage?. Then I realized that my wrist was also in a bandage.

What the hell's going on?

I hold my left hand, just like my right hand. I turned to look at my stomach, and I also saw a white bandage bandaging my body.

"Uhh... I don't know what's going on, but right now I'm really hungry."

Right now, I am hungry and thirsty. I don't know where I am now, I don't even see Fahrez or Rakka here.

I looked around, and my eyes were fixed on the wide open window. I saw the moon shining brightly, and the sky was red. Not to forget also the clouds are purple.

"...."

Where'sme?

I try to recall the previous events.

The first one I was strangled by someone. Oh yes, he's the old man. After that I was unconscious. Then when I realized I was bound and blindfolded, not to mention I was at the North Pole. And again the various kinds of torture given by the old man.

Then I met Jevan, my homeroom teacher. He tried to kill me, but he couldn't.

Because it's....

Because what?

I feel like the next thing I don't remember very much. The last thing I remember is like saying a name, but I don't know what.

Yes already. The point is I'm hungry. Need more energy. But how do I get out of here?

I feel like this dome helped me heal.

Out of curiosity I touched this crystal dome, even though I only touched it with just one finger, but this crystal dome instantly shattered into fragments.

Eh? It's not my fault, is it?

Bodo.

I'm back to seeing myself. Oh, my God, I'm still wearing my school pants.

Finally I stood up, when I stood up it felt like I was going to fall back to the floor.

My body's limp.

And a little dizzy.

I'm trying to find a buffer, but it's too far. In the end I fell back into this thin bed.

"Sir, are you okay?"

I looked to the side and found a woman with blue eyes and black hair looking at me. Her face was beautiful, but her expression was cold.

But who is he?

"My name is Fifi sir. Your mistress said you were conscious, so she just asked to pick you up."

"Oh. Mm.... Did you see my two guards?"

"Guard? Ohhh... You mean Mr. Fahrez and Mr. Rakka. They're leaving, said Mr. Rakka they'll be back in three hours."

They left me in a place I didn't know. Really, these two guards of mine are too great.

But they must have had a special reason. They believe that this place is safe.

Yeah, nevermind.

"Fifi, where's your mistress?"

"It's very close from here."

"Then let's go now."

I stood up again, but again I almost fell down. Before I fell, there was a hand holding me. I looked at Fifi, but she just stared straight ahead. Now my hand is on his shoulder, touching me.

"Thank you."

"Together."

I just smiled a little. We finally walked, slowly. During the trip we just fell silent, there was not one conversation.

I just realized the structure I live in. This place is box-shaped and in the middle there is a building with dark colored walls. Along the way, I saw only a closed wooden door. In some places I saw there were gems with all sorts of shapes and colors.

Even the support pole is made of gold.

I am still confused where I am now.

Finally, Fifi and I reached the darkest building here. In front of me lined the stairs, I estimate hundreds of stairs waiting to be climbed.

I let out a breath.

Looks like Fifi found out, then Fifi said one word.

"[Teleport]!"

In an instant I was upstairs. I was on the highest rung of the stairs. I looked at Fifi in disbelief, while Fifi looked at me with her cold gaze.

"Because of the condition of the master's body, I only took the fastest path."

It's like he knows what I'm thinking.

"That's so. Thank you very much."

"Together."

Why did he not wear it from the room?

Yes already. He helped me a lot.

"Mrs, I've brought Mr. Sergio."

"Thank you Fifi."

Since I was still shocked by Fifi earlier, I did not notice that I had just arrived in front of a large room with some glittering jewel ornaments.

"Welcome to the world of Nromu, Sergio."

And also a beautiful woman with a rather revealing outfit.
