Unfortunately for our protagonist, falling from such height broke his spine and render him paralysed forever. Without anyone to save him, the hero live his entire life for a short while till his death.
THE END
Joking aside, before i reach the ground I felt strange energy envelope me and soften my fall. I wonder if it were from my hidden power or something else. Well, I mean the energy felt different from my dream. Maybe it’s because I’m in a different body. Yup, let’s go with it.
Right now I’m in the middle of a clearing surrounded with trees. Looking at the clear bright sky I assume it’s morning around 9 am, probably. While looking around I felt someone presence behind me.
I hastly turn around to find nobody’s there. Then I heard giggle behind me again and turn around again to find the same result. By now I’m pratically spinning around so hard I collapsed after a while. The giggle continue and become louder. When my dizziness recede i was welcomed by a little bug
“Who did you call a little bug?” said the bug in front of me.
Wait, bug can’t talk. Animal can’t talk. Only human can talk. So who’s talkin? Is this some kind of prank?? I look around searching for a sign of person but the only thing around me are trees, shrubs, grass and this bug.
“DON’T IGNORE ME YOU IDIOT!!” *WHACK*
Suddenly the bug in front of me hit me with a force not matching it’s size. It was hard enough to knock me down.
In a cold tone, it say “Call me a bug one more time and i swear i’ll rip off you entire limb bits by bits. Am I clear?!”
To that i can only nod. Now that I take a closer look, the being in front of me has a human figure with a pair of butterfly-like wings albeit tiny in size. From it’s figure i guess it’s a female in her early teen. If I’m not mistaken, she would be something called a fairy or fae in mythology or fantasy story.
Wait a sec, “How did you know what I’m thinking about, miss fairy.” I added miss out of respect to her. Anyone that kick that hard to something 36 times their size worthy those respect.
“Meh, I just knew when people offend me in general. By the way, don’t you have any idea who am I?” the fairy asked me.
“Hold on, have we ever met before?”
“Yes, we just talked like 5 minutes ago and you just rush to the portal before I finish my explanation. Do you have any idea how hard it is to unlock the seal inside of you while falling?”
“Ummm, No?”
“........Thats it? ‘No’? is there anyting else you would like to say?”
My answer was shaking my head, which I’ll regret soon enough.
“SIT.” The fairy ordered me.
I wasn’t paid enough attention so her word lost on me. this too i’ll regret it.
“I.said.SIT!”
By instinct my body fall into a seiza position.cold sweat pours from all over my body. I haven’t got this feeling ever since i saw my dad comes to school dressed like a hooligan and beat up an abusive teacher back when I was a 3rd grader.
After i sat down, the fairy proceed to nag me and giving lecture about why i shouldn’t call her bug. She keep droning around for hours and by the end of it the sun already reach it’s peak. By now my legs has fallen asleep and i can barely hold it anymore. I raised my hand slightly hoping she noticed me.
“-and for that you shall.....What? You have something to say?”
I nod while my other hand holding my crotch while i struggling to keep it in.

“Hooh you want to take a leak huh? Well, just go already!”
After she said that, i rose from my sitting position only to fall again when my legs somehow rooted to the ground.
“Oops, did you mistook my word? Let me rephrase it to you once again. Go take a piss right here and now. Not that hard to do right?”
“Wait, you mean-“
“Yes, exactly that. What? Don’t you really want to go? So do it now.”
[THE FOLLOWING SCENE HAS BEEN OMITTED BY THE REQUEST OF THE PROTAGONIST ANONYMOUS PERSONA. ALSO THE PROTAGONIST IS NOT IN THE MOOD TO narating THE STORY FOR A WHILE SO PLEASE BEAR WITH IT.]
“Now that you have finish your business lets move on. Come on, don’t be like that, cheer up will ya? Not like anyone saw it.”
“........”
“Tch, I get it already. I know i went too far but it’s also your fault for being insensitive so we’re even. Just get over it and quit your sulking already!”
“......... it’s weird huh...”
“Hm? What was that?”
“My thing’s, it’s weird right?”
“What do you mean by- oh, you mean your d**k. Nah, nothing weird about it. It’s just a normal healthy male organ.”
“.....you mean it?”
“Yes, I mean it. Now just turn around and face m- Mama mia you are messed up.”
“.......”
“*sigh* here take this handkerchive and clean your snort. Also it’s about time you start narating the story. The reader are leaving already.”
*nose blowing fx* yeah, thats right can’t delay thing any longer. After the embarasing episode of my life I just gave up and cry for a while. Now that you mention it where did the hankie comes from?
“Magic.” The fairy says.
Well, it’s a fantasy world so it’s probably the norm. Now that i think about it, the fairy did resembles the goddess I met not too long ago same hair, same eyes, same clothing albeit shorter in legs area, not the voice though, probably because of her current size.
*stomatch growling fx*
Speaking of the time, it’s been around 3 hour since i’m arrived and I haven’t eat anything yet. Right now i want to search for food. But first.....
“umm, miss fairy.....”
“What?”
“May I ask your name? I didn’t quite catch your name back there...”
The fairy paused for a while before she open her mouth again. “Ivory, that’s my name. And quit it with the ‘Miss’ already, Charlie.”
To that I nod and asked her again, “Well mi- Ivory, I’m kinda feel hungry now so would you be so kind to make me something to eat?”
“No. If you really are an ‘incarnate’ you can just go hunt yourself.”
“Ehhh, but I’m hungry now. And how do I hunt if I don’t have a weapon?”
“Then just use your ability. Also, if I’m not mistaken you used to practice martial art in your spare time so why don’t you use your technique too while we at it?”
“But it was a long time ago. And I just got my power few hours ago, I don’t even know how to begin.”
“Just concentrate your power to any part of your body part you’re going to use and strike. That’s simple, right?”
“........fine. Just tell me where the nearest game.”
“2 meters behind you.”
“........you’re enjoying this, am I right?”
Right when Ivory told me the whereabout of my hunt, I spot a pair of 5 meters tall bears eating a herd of deer like creatures, enjoying their time. This is impossible, does this fairy think I can just fight a bear bare handed and expect me to win? That’s absurd!! I probably could kill a deer or two but this is unreal.
“HEY, UGLY! COME OVER HERE A GET A PIECE OF ME.”
“Wait, what are you doing Ivory?”
“You’re taking too long so I just hasten it for you. Now go kill those bears, M-Y L-O-R-D <3.”
No other choice. Preparing for the fight, I took off my blazer and throw it out to the side. I assumed my stance and brace for impact. One of the bear rushing my way on it’s hind legs and brandish it’s claw. It swing it’s right claw at me but I dodged at the last second to the left. In that moment I gather my energy within me to my left hand just like in my dream. I don’t know how I accomplished this but I can missed this chance. With all my might I punched the bear’s right ribs and I heard a crack sound.
Whether it was from me or the bear doesn’t matter, I have to keep focus on the battle. After receiving my attack, the bear staggered a little bit. I gather my energy again but this time it’s going to my right hand. With even more force, I strike it right in the center of it’s gut. I heard an even lourder which is weird because if I’m not wrong bears doesn’t have bones in their belly. Oddly enough the bear stopped moving and I saw the other bear loking at me with eyes of contempt.
I threw the bear to my side, reassumed my stance and gather even more of my energy to my right leg. The bear rush to me on four as if it’s want to pounce on me. When it was within my range, I front kicked it’s head making it standing on it’s hind legs. I pour even more energy to my right leg and side kicked the bear’s gut, making a hole at those area.
*SPLAT*
I was shocked by how my power increased my strenght and speed beyond normal limit of human. Ivory on the other hand clapping slowly making a ‘not bad, but you could do better’ look. She’s seriously piss me off but deep down I know it’s necessary for me to fight. Who know whats going to happend if I wasn’t ready to fight and oly equipped with my fist. I also need to be familiarized with my power before it’s too late. I almost died when i came to this world and if it wasn’t for Ivory I probably be flat like a pancacke.
When I inspect the first bear remain, I saw an armor-like scale in it’s torso and jaw. The scales had a crack on the place i hit it. It’s a wonder my arms and legs survived. I probably under estimated my power quite alot. I even barely feeling tired at all, but it’s probably just the adrenaline.
Now that I know how my power’s work, I began collecting the meat from the second bear. I could just ask the fairy to make me a knive but I don’t wanna risk offending her again. Fortunately the chuncks that were scatered from the second bear are more than enough for three people. I put down the meats near the place I landed. After that i began collecting twigs, branches and dried grass. I proceed to make a fire place and not long after i got myself a camp fire. Who know my trip with my mom back in 8th grade were come in handy.
On the other hand, Ivory helped gathering some herbs on a basis that she also wants to eat and bears meat taste awfull if cooked as it its. All the herbs in front of me were foreign to me, it’s a fantasy world so it’s a given. I tasted all the herb collected and deliberating how i should cook the meat. I decided to make a skrewed grilled meat with herbs due to the lack of neccesary equipment for any other dishes.
Few minutes later we helped ourself with a delicious meal. I even shed a tears while munching them. My companion though, eat her portion with a blank expression. Well, mortal food probably taste mediocore to god kin. But after she finished her portion, I almost let out a laughter.
“Second.” Say’s a blushing fairy beside me.
I was worried when I thought my cooking were not to her liking but seems like its was for naught. I give her another portion and she wolfed it down as quickly as possible while looking embarassed. After the lunch/dinner I was thirsty. Forunately Ivory were kind enough to summon drinkable water for my consumption, at the cost of getting my shirt wet. She quickly dried them by summoning a warm breeze, while giggling.
After I put out the fire and gather my belongin (thrown blazer), we resume our journey. Five step later I turn to Ivory and ask, “By the way, what were we doing in this place anyway.”
She then giving me a blank look and facepalmed herself mumbling something under her breath. I tried putting a bit of my energy to my ears hopping i can hear what she’s saying. The only word I could catch are ‘........and right after I consider him a decent guy.....’.
