chapter 1: Bad luck

Somewhere in a deep pit made up of debris from broken rocks and wood, a person could be seen in tattered clothes. It just looks like his is dead.

Suddenly his finger started twitching, “ahhh”, a deep groan could be heard, just like a dead dog.

Slowly that person open his eyes. His eyes is blank, as he doesn’t seem to recognize that place. Shit where am I now, that’s the exact thought he is having right now as it can be seen from his frowning face.

Suddenly a thought came to his mind and at the same time an ancient looking Gate could be found in his mind, as every time he blinks he could see that dark anomaly in his mind..

“What’s happening with my mind how am I able to see a Gate with my eyes closed . It must because my mind is not stable right now, calm down Nolan, calm down. “

“Shit it’s still the same “, Nolan murmured, his face as normal with a smile on his lips. Right now he is in an Tavern, The Flower Hope Tavern. But there is no flower nor any hope here. Right now he is in the corner table. The only waiter is in front of him with a frown on his face. He is a young man of 16 or 17 with a normal face and black eyes.

He is contemplating something and the same time he is also scanning the Nolan up and down. Of course it can’t be helped, a black face with dirt stain still visible on his nose and sides of his faces, with tattered clothes, full of dirt and stain and messy a hair, no one will believe that he is not a beggar, but Nolan is sitting there like a saint , with a smile over his lips.

“Ok , only water is free here. You wait some moment , but you will have to go after that, as its going to be evening soon and we will get a lot of customers and we don’t have enough space for a freeloader. “ the young man said with a frown.

Nolan understood that the night time is the for the workers who get free out of their

Stolen story; please report.

Works.

Nolan just smiled calmly and nodded , showing that he understood him but inside he is fuming with madness learning about his situation.. The young man just looked at him again with a suspicious eyes and the went back inside .

This is Blue river village in this is Boundless Lower plane, what a crappy name is this , but still Nolan nodded his head in full seriousness, to show that he was still listening to that old man back on the road.

The shit am I got into and the hell is that gate for, doing in my mind, Nolan cursed, but he quickly changed back to his calm expression as he saw the young man coming back.

“Here is your water…” he stops

Thanks .Nolan bowed showing a demeanor of a noble.

The young man continued to stay there with a look, showing an expression of conflict.

Nolan after finishing the glass came to find that the boy is still there , he can’t help but gulp, is he going to ask me money now, for water, what a bad luck. he can’t help but sweat

“Sir are you a noble…”

A sudden voice interrupted his thoughts.

It was the tavern owner, Nolan could see him slowly walking to his side with a smiling face.

“Huh”, Nolan exclaimed just like a fool, the hell is he talking about, but he quickly managed to control his expression, as he can see a sword in his sleeve.

a bucket of sweat started to appear on him as his back drenched cold.

Shit, oi oi old man why are coming toward me with that smiling face but hiding a weapon in your sleeves, you think I am a fool who will fall for your trap.

Looks like I will have to follow along, I don’t want to die just yet for only a cup of water when I just came to this world.

Wilder was a dweller before and have visited many places in his life, though he was not able to acquire a lot of money but he have met a lot of people in his way, many kind of them , when he became tired with all that, and wanted a peaceful life, he came back to his village. Though his village is a small one but it is on the outskirt of the city separated by a hill, just beside the jungle so there was a lot of travelers passing through here. though he only wanted a peaceful life he didn’t wanted to be completely separated from outside world and that’s why he opened a tavern. but it seems its not an easy too run a tavern.

Wilder came to front of the man , who is sitting in front of him, calmly drinking water.

He have seen likes of him many , thugs, acting like a noble.

“Oh, no no, you must have been mistaken , I am a merchant. Actually i got attacked by bandits on my way and that’s how I am here, in this feeble state.” Nolan sighed, with a sad face depicting that it can’t be helped.

“Oh “, the boy exclaimed, then he nodded his head in understanding.

Wilder just stood there smiling .just looking at the smile Nolan got a chill on his back.

So he just stood up

“Then I will be on my way.”

As he said, he left the tavern.
