"Haaa... another day has been done..." This I said when I go to my house with a exhaust face. After I go inside I always do an inner monologue like "Hello I am Ayaka, I'm in my early twenties" It is like I am breaking a fourth wall. Where I say what life I have now and right now is super boring or rather sad one. Sometimes I wish I have a family or a lover. I can be cheerful when I'm at work with my colleague but it's easy to get sad when I'm alone. Watch, Eat, Work, Sleep is only my routine. I wish my life can be a exciting one someday also I really need a emotional right now..
After I finish my meal, I rest for like ten minutes and then I hit the bathroom and brush my teeth. Afterwards I scroll through some funny videos or news and then pray that the next day I wake up will be an exciting one...
*Chirp* *Chirp* This is the first sound I hear after I wake up with the look that is saying "really?!". Under the big tree where I wake up I list in my head the events that I experience, one of them is my body regressing to a kid. Which is also a follow up saying "Is this an anime or comics trope where I transported to another world and became a protagonist?!" With many more questions pouring to my head I felt hunger.
"I should really watch the survival videos I see on the internet" . After I say this I enter the forest with little knowledge I have. Upon traveling inside the forest it's too peaceful and all I hear is the humming of the birds. After more or less twenty minutes I see a bridge. After that I think that people will roam to this forest which will lead to a village nearby. But I asked myself "But which direction?" Well, I think it's really hard if I go north or south and I waste ten minutes of my life asking this question to myself! because of this I forget the hunger I have. After the idiotic question I see some smoke coming from the south, seeing this I quickly go south with no other question. Upon arriving in my direction I see some five houses and the middle of it I see some three old men. The two of them are like my grandpa if I have one and the remaining one has an uncle look. Before I could speak, the three of them looked at me. My heart got loud and I questioned my head as if these three old men now that I am here. The one old man who had the aura of a martial artist spoke.
"Hey kid! don't worry, we are not bad people! like you we also transmigrate to this world and we know that you are hungry"
"Old man, when did you know that I am here?!"
"Since you wake up and that is why you should join us eating some meals."
"Wow that is creepy if you think, if they know my existence since the beginning but I don't feel some bad aura or something to these three old men" After the inner monologue I have I quickly ran to them because I am really hungry this time. They gave me bread and soup and damn! This meal is awesome! because it is tasty I request some more. When eating I tell my story up to this day.
"I see upon listening to your story it seems our world is close to each other." The uncle looking guy had relief on his face when he said that.
"Hmm? So that means uncle, you also have a mall in your world?"
"Yes, but it is more high tech and also we achieve dimension exploration but we don't have space exploration."
"Woooooah! i like to visit your world uncle!"
"I know having advanced technology hype you up but we should focus more in the present and after that we can think of ways to go to my planet."
"And you grandpa with glasses, where do you from?
"According to your uncle, I am from the medieval period and we are more focused on medicine and magic."
"Ahhh! So you are a doctor and alchemist?
"Yes, if you think about it I can be an alchemist but I am not a doctor. My main job is a herbalist."
"Ok grandpa! and you, other grandpa?"
Unauthorized tale usage: if you spot this story on Amazon, report the violation.
"Do you know the world of martial arts or murim in short?"
"I think I have a clue about your world grandpa, a martial artist who has a dantian where they store or locate the internal energy. Then most martial artists are arrogant because they think they can beat most of the people. Am I right grandpa?"
"Hohoho, of course you are right little girl, in murim where power is absolute anything you can rule. By the way it seems your uncle is right that our world is like a novel, I hope I can visit your world little girl! By the way My name is Bing Xing."
"I am Tom Row from the future."
"My name is Herbert Crimson from Crimson Family."
"Hi I am the one who brings you into this world."
Upon hearing that I nearly dropped my food because of shock. I did not expect this kind of introduction and I thought only four were here.
"Who is this little kid, grandpa Bing?"
"This idiot or blockhead is the God of this planet and the one who teleports us in this place."
This one who grandpa Bing mentioned is the God of this planet. For a God I don't feel any holiness or diviness to this kid. It has the same height as me, the color of its eye is just brown, the clothes are simple like a commoner in a novel. Really it does not have any unique characteristics. But why do I have the feeling that I want to hit this idiot.
"Hehe, sorry guys, I just need your help".
"Help? But I don't have power.. and also this is your world you know the power of a high being." I am skeptical of this God, it is just that all of the people here, this one have the power to do unimaginable things.
"Do you think I transported you here if you don't have potential? and one more thing I have limited power on what I can do even though I am the God of this planet.. if it's only I don't have this restriction long ago my problem has been finished..."
Upon hearing that I see the sadness on the eyes of this God. I feel like I poke his emotion even though I don't mean it. Silence fills the surroundings. In this situation it is really awkward.
"Sorry for the awkward silence.. Also I will tell you why I transported you here. I want you to help the Hero I choose from your world but he will come here 15 years from now."
"Why so long? It is not possible that he is also transported this time?"
"I don't know why you two does not summon here at the same time. But I feel like someone is interfering with me as if that person knows I will get another person in other places. I know this explanation is not enough but I am sure that 15 years from now he will come. It will also possible that after you two finish your business here the it also different time you will back to your world.
"I know that I don't have any choice but to help you but what is your main reason that you need us four?"
"I would like to end the war between the races vs demon kin, But my demons are not really bad. I don't know why they become berserkers but I just know that an unknown being has the power to manipulate and bypass my power. I discovered an unknown power and traced it until I saw a message that if I want to end this madness I will need to free that King of the demon that has been sealed in their territory."
"Hmm... did you try to go to the territory of the demon king?"
"Yes, but I can't pass because of a barrier surrounding it but it is only specific for me because the other races can enter and go out of this barrier. I really think about what I can do to help and after the first 100 years I attempt to transport other living beings on my domain. The price I pay is that my powers almost drain when I summon the three. I thought it would end after I summoned these people but another unfortunate event fell upon us."
"And what is it?"
"Our physical body is disappearing and we can't escape to this forest." The way uncle tom says this has a serious tone.
"EH?! but how do you guys get this items and foods?" I really surprise when uncle tome said that, "isn't kind of bullshit restriction?" I said to my head.
"It's not that we can't escape to this forest. We can escape to this forest sometimes but we can only stay outside of the forest for only one week, then back again to this forest. This phenomenon occurs once a month and when it is the end of the month. Now our physical body disappears when our stamina has dropped, it can also trigger when we are hungry upon discovering that. We will turn into spirit beings until we recover our energy. But thanks to Bing and Herbert we can last longer, we expand our qi and gather mana in our surrounding this way we last as long we are not really tired or hungry."
"And we will teach you what we discover and learn for the past 2000 years from qi and mana gathering to how you use them. It will really hard for you." The way grandpa Bing said you can see how proud he is, same with uncle tom and grandpa herbert.
"Well I don't really have any choice but to follow you guys." I cried in my mind when I said that.
"Don't worry Ayaka, we will guide you and you will begin your training today!" The way grandpa Herbert has an enthusiasm to his face unlike uncle tom he has a devil smile...
Destiny, God, Or other external factors, I know that I wish my life to be an exciting one but it was suddenly... I sigh in my head knowing this is gonna be a rough journey.
