Chapter 3 Part 2

Sister Alissa’s POV

Seeing the young man awaken for real this time and sitting in his bed was such a relief I was filled with a mix of excitement and happiness I wasn’t able to help myself and hugged him.

Alissa: “At last you’re awake!!! *hugs*

Sensing the young man freeze up as I caught myself hugging him, feeling embarrassed by such a rude behavior I immediately loosened my hold of him and instantly went red. Looking at the now awake young man, I can see that he is at around the tender age of 40 – 50 years old, quite young to be my child in fact. Taking my time to compose myself I stared at him some more to see a face that looks like it was sculpted to perfection, raven black hair flowing just below his nape, eyes so dark that it looks like any color would get sucked in it to oblivion, nice supple lips and a smile that can make any woman swoon. I have never seen any man as good looking as this young boy in my 80 years of life (actually 120 years, but who’s counting?! Hehe). Making sure that I am as composed as I would ever be, I greeted him with a smile.

Alissa: “Ehem. I am glad to see you awake young man, I was afraid you would never wake up at all.”

MC’s POV

After getting a bone crushing hug I was able to focus on what was important. I was able to understand this beautiful maiden and it seemed like she was also able to understand me. Does this mean that one of the gifts I got was language comprehension? If that is the case than I have something to be thankful for to God as this would make my life here a lot easier.

One thing that surprised me though was what this girl called me. She called me young man?! Did I hear it correctly? Looking at my own hands I can see that my body looked like the body I had back when I was 16-18 years old, looking back at her I can see her blushing a bit at my stare so I asked her the thing that was bugging me.

MC: “Young man? How old do I look to you Miss?”

Alissa: ”What a weird question, don’t tell me you don’t remember your own age young man. Well to me you look like any 40-50 years old teenage boy. Am I wrong?”

Her answer made me more confused but also gave me some answer altogether. It seems like 40-50 years old was quite young of an age in this world. Meaning people develop their physical attributes here for a longer time than on earth. Sensing that she was waiting for my answer, I gave her a reply of my own.

MC: “You are correct Miss, I am 45 years old. ” I again gave her a smile which again made her turn red for a bit.

Alissa: “Stop it with the Miss thing. Call me Sister Alissa, young man. And may I ask you for your name?” She gave a smile of her own.

It seems like she is a nun, what a waste, she is such a beauty but is out of my reach. If I take heed from what God said getting entangled with people like her would be the easiest way of getting discovered by the Celestials. Thinking that I gave her a name that I thought was quite fitting for my situation right now. After all this is a new life, I might as well start it with a new name. Chance in latin was Casus, I was given another chance so I would name myself that to remind me not to waste this second chance at life.

MC: “My name is Casus. It is nice meeting you Sister Alissa. And I would like to thank you for saving me.”

I bowed a bit, it seemed fitting at the moment. This made Sister Alissa a little embarrassed. After regaining her composure she was just doing her job as a follower of Celestial Avendra.

Alissa: “What am I doing?! I need to call Father Albert immediately. Do remain here child and I will call the good Father to report to him that you finally awoke from your slumber.”

With that as her farewell I can see her walking briskly to the door of what seemed like my room and finally disappeared on the other side of the door. This gave me time to look around my location. It looked like any normal room if the setup was that of medieval period. I was in a simple bed, there is a study table at the other side of the room parallel to the bed, there was also a small cabinet and a side table with a small lamp on top of it just beside the bed.

‘She said that she was a Sister of the Celestial Avendra. Does this mean I am in a Cathedral that worships one of the major Celestials? If that is the case it would be dangerous if they found out that I am not of this world. I should state that apart from my age and my name I don’t have any recollection of what happened to me whatsoever.’

Finally able to decide on playing like an amnesiac I was worried that they might have ways of reading my memories or “helping” me regain them. If that is the case I am screwed but still I would try and use the amnesia card as long as I can.

I do not know how but I felt someone coming to my location before I heard the steps. They were rushing but I was not alarmed for whatever reason.

Atlast the steps were loud enough to know that they were just behind the door. After a second or so I heard the door open and again I was able to be graced by the beauty of Sister Alissa but behind her was a man whom I assumed to be Father Albert. Taking my eyes off her I was able to see a man of broad stature. A body that is anything but fit, eyes that are as blue as the ocean that felt like it can see inside of you and a head full of silver hair. He seemed like a man of advanced age and yet I can feel power in his posture. The two of them would have been extremely famous for their looks back on earth. Snapping out of my reverie I heard the last words of who I assumed was Father Albert introducing himself to me.

Gawking can wait, I have to remain in character in order to survive.

Father Albert: “…….can I ask for your name?”

Casus: ”Huh?! Oh you want to know my name? I am Casus, Father Albert.”

Seeing my flustered face I heard Father Albert chuckle a bit and continued asking me questions.

Father Albert: “How are you feeling Casus? Any discomfort?”

At that moment I heard a sound so strong it made me turn beet red. It was my stomach telling me that it needs to be filled. Hearing that most embarrassing sound the both of them laughed a bit.

Father Albert: “It seems like you are in better condition if your body is asking to be fed. Our inquiries can wait, Sister Alissa if it is not a grievance may I ask that you prepare some food for Casus.”

Sister Alissa: “hi hi hi ehem. I would prepare it immediately Father.”

After having my fill of the food Sister Alissa brought me I was advised by her to get some more rest as Father Albert had a lot of other responsibilities for the day and will not be able to talk to me today. So after the meal I went back to sleep thanking God I was safe for another day. As I travel to the dreamland once more and having my stomach fool of good food I felt tired once again and sleep was at me once more.
