Paul woke up with a jolt and looked around the room. The room was simple with nothing but the bare necessities: a bed beside that bed was a table and a stone that produced light and most importantly a person who was standing over his bed looking at him ‘was she watching me sleep’ although that wasn't the strangest part about it that was the wings and scales that covered her.

“Oh you're up already” the thing said. She looked young although there was something to her voice as if it was mimicking human speech rather than being it .

Paul just sat there blankly maybe getting his thoughts altogether, taking a breath and opening his mouth and speaking with as much calmness as he could manage “what happen, where am I” he spoke with less composure than he had hoped but he was still a bit nerve rack from what happened the day before and seeing that thing,

right when he woke up frightened him a little. the girl was about 25 she had wings and scales all over her body

She looked at him for a second and then stepped a bit closer and said “ I saw you getting attacked and you weren't fighting back at all, so I went down to help you” she took a breath and spoke” it may not be my place to say but why were you out there”.

Paul paused a moment and though ‘I went to sleep and when I woke up, I was already out there, i don't know but that sounds like the start of a isekai’ with that though he spoke “I think, do understand that i might sound insane but, i might have been moved from my world and place in this one to save it from the demon king.”

she stood there a second “ahaha ahaha you think you were moved here to save the world, that does sound a bit insane but with such a serious face, I might believe you not to mention that get up you have on where did you get that clothes from your other world”.

Paul couldn't blame her for laughing at him, it did sound ridiculous “aha yea its a bit funny but i went to sleep and when I woke up I was out there so there was no other reason i could think of”. “

Nah it's fine, maybe my dad could tell you if it could actually happen then a cleric of the church of knowledge would know it” she said with a green and half laughing”.

Paul got up off the bed with a spring in his step and that's not a metaphor he literally was jumping around ‘what the hell, my legs were hurting like a bitch yesterday and now they're fine, then might even feel a bit stronger, wait how did they heal me up’ and realizing he didn't have her name and asked “oh what the way, what's your name”

Olivia looking at the weird man jumping around like a rabbit being chased by a fox couldn't help but crack a smile at him, “it’s Olivia green and what's yours”. “Mine is Paul Smith” Paul spoke

Olivia spoke “do you want some time alone to jump around or..” Paul suddenly realized that he looked studied “ no no I don't need to, sorry about that”. Olivia turned around and walked “come I'm feeling a bit hungry”. She walked and he followed her out of the building. It looked to be a hospital but it wasn't that big. They walked for 10 minutes from what Paul watch told him.

They got to the market and they saw all kinds of things being sold. Olivia stopped in front of a man calling out “goblin meat fresh and hot, get it here”, she raised 2 fingers up and the man said “for two sticks that will be 1 copper”. When she got the food she looked over to Paul and pointed a stick in a his direction “i don't have money what the ever” paul said taking while padding his pockets, ” I know that silly, here take it you can pay me back when you get some” she forcefully handed him the stick and he took it this time. Olivia and Paul talked as they walked.

James was setting at his table taking with a friend

“The gods sent me a message in my dream it was that a -”

*knock knock*

James stopped as he was speaking

“Come in Olivia !” he said smiling but when he saw her walking in with a man, he frowned

“Sorry for interrupting dad but, I found this Paul here” she said gesturing to the man himself “Yesterday i saw him getting attacked by a few goblins in the forest, and he almost died if not for my swift action, and the healer”

“I see but why bring the human here” James spoke leaning back in his chair.

“Well father you see it’s what he said when he woke up after that, cause me to bring him here” after telling her dad what happened to Paul.

he leaned forward and placed his hands on his head, his face scrunched up in a grimace and said with a trembling voice “I just got a message from the gods” taking out a piece of paper as it was seen as dishonorable to speak the words of gods directly

“the god of chaos does this from time to time and normal with a gift”

The room went quiet

Paul spoke under his breath “i'm guessing the author didn't know how to phrase that”

“What did you say!” Olivia said to him a bit louder then she meant to and embarrassed herself causing her cheeks to get red

‘I don't think scales can blush’ Paul thought but said “Oh nothing just that, I didn't think the gods would speak like that”

James looked up to him and spoke “the gods will talk as they wish”

Paul didn't reply instead Olivia spoke for him”dad he has no place to live, and I don't think he’ll well get one”

“If your thinking about letting him stay here he doesn't need to, look at his wrist and that thing on it, yes it would sell for a pretty penny and there a manor he could use if he's ok with not being around other people”

“father he can't stay l in that abandon manor” Olivia cried out
