02 – The New World

02 – The New World

It has been one week after I woke up in the new world. My time at hospital mostly about checked my brain conditions and conversation with the doctor who assigned to me. Her name is Dina. She may be the person, I mainly talked in hospital. Some nurse, I found not particularly friendly or maybe just don't care. Other workers like a janitor who several times came to take care of the room also acted cold to me.

So I thought, It just some bad treatment from some public services. My perception changed when three days ago. Two officers come to check me, mostly about stalking cases for my ex-girlfriend. It was particularly bad. Really bad. They aren't just annoying, but rude as well.

The way they talked really put me down, some curses and also sometimes just fact a ridiculed. They come to check about my memories since the doctor found my memories unreliable for making the case. Since I didn't really remember about my ex-girlfriend, and about stalking. They bought a lie detector to make sure my question was valid.

After my question was over, they found out my statement mostly honest, found out my memories were unreliable, and the case can't be submitted. It's made them livid and angrier, they just frankly said in front of me how this is wasted their time. In the end, They gave me restraining order to stay away from my ex-girlfriend and the punishment will be given by the guild.

My time after that was calming, Doctor Dina didn't ask the question again, she came to the room just to check my conditions. She found a little weird that I always fainted.

Of course, there aren't other reason why I fainted than I always tried to use Mana Perception. Since I couldn't get out of my hospital room, I did what can I did in the room. That's I trained the only skill I had, Mana Perception.

Just like my first time, I always ended fainted, but at least my time using Mana Perception increased second by second. After one week, I could use this skill about 1 minute. I enjoyed my training in the hospital. After all, I can take easy because I fainted in the patient room.

After using it many times, I found out that I aware of many things from Mana Perception not only presence things. I started could understand what people were talking about with just reading the moves of their mouth. It made me feel a little special and started to appreciate my skill.

I also found out. How energy in this world was running. In this world, people didn't use oil or coal as energy, but Mana Crystal. Mana Crystal only can be found in Labyrinth. I never saw Labyrinth, but one of nurse talked about it a little. It looks like there a big Labyrinth near this place. It piqued my interest, but they're no way I was searching about Labyrinth in this room.

This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.

Since there no TV or Internet in this room. Even though I found out there some technology like internet after eavesdropping from some nurse when I used Mana Perception. I was really frustrated that I can't access to TV or the Internet.

At least, I found out time in this new world. There are no different, just like in the first world. 24 Hour, 7 Day, 4 Week, 12 Month, and 1 Year, a little different is I moved back time maybe 5 years earlier than my first world timeline.

Well, I expected when I saw a younger body. Is this can be some advantage, but I don't have any knowledge about this world, and I didn't really think this world will be the same as the first world.

My peace day ended, when Doctor Dina came to my room with the news.

"Representative from the guild will come tomorrow." She said with a genuinely worried face.

"Is that so?"

"Yes, because of that I thought to give you some fresh air."

"Umm. Okay."

"Please follow me?"

Doctor Dina guides me, we get out from the room, until reached rooftop. Along the way, I could see many nurses or another worker, which not surprise me. They are particularly same with Doctor Dina, which their height around 140-150cm. I mean my height was average in my country with 168 cm, since I came to this world, I never saw someone taller than me. Even the officer several days ago maybe the taller was 150cm.

This kinda made me wondering, maybe in this world average height also changed?

When we reached the rooftop, my mind was blown out by the new scenery. This is my first time, I saw outside of the new world.

It was a big tower. Really a big tower. So big that even that tower was far away from the hospital, I could saw how massive the tower.

"That is a Labyrinth. Labyrinth Level A, own by the British Empire."

"Labyrinth."

My feet feeling cold when I saw the Labyrinth and my body started to tremble. I feel fear within my body. It was liked my body give me a warning or maybe a trauma given by Labyrinth to this body.

"Wait, British Empire?" I can't help to ask a question.

"That's right. After I talked to you many times. I realized what are you talking about. The Labyrinth of Great Britain is the same as Singapore you talking about. Lastly, Batam isn't at Indonesia that country never existed. I never heard of that country. Batam is always an East Dutch Indies."

The scenery of Labyrinth and every word she said about my country never existed came to me very hard. For the first time, I realized that I in the new world.

The feeling that I can't come back to my first world and realized that the new world was entirely different. Slowly I felt fear, fear of the new world. How can I survive in the new world? Is there will be any help for me? And I started to the felt of homesick?

After that there, no other world from Doctor Dina was heard by me.

My feeling right now full of insecurity.

Can I really survive in this new world?
