”Thank you for buying, please come again! ”

A young boy in his 17 can be seen working as a cashier at 7 eleven, it was around 10: 56 pm and it is time for him to go home.

As soon as his co-worker came, he smiled at him and then proceed to walk into changing room ready for him to go home.

A moment later, we can see him wearing a white T-shirt and jeans, and red shoes.

He walks at night with a plastic bag filled with instant noodles.

It was too dark for him to see clearly, no light could make him at ease, but this happening is already normal for him, and did not bother to be nervous about it.

He looked up at the sky and see the magnificent beauty of the night, he smile at it and stared at the full moon.

And thought about visiting his mother on his vacation.

As he enjoy walking at night, a sudden pain came right through his back, he jolted and subconsciously touch his back.

He looks at his palm and blood is filled with it.

He started to grow dizzy and leaned on a wall.

”What…is….happ… ”

Soon, he feels that his eyes are getting heavy, and he slowly falls to his knees.

His blurry eyes stared at the plastic full of cup noodles, then a pair of feet went in front of him.

”n-no… I-its not my fault… Y-you suddenly appeared!!! ”

Based on the voice, he concluded that it came from a 15-18 year old boy.

He wanted to speak but couldn , he just watched the pair of feet run away until it couldn be seen in his peripheral eyes.

Soon, the light in his eyes turns dull and his surroundings turn quiet and tears appear in his eyes.

”Mom… ”

With his last dying breath that his loved ones wouldn be able to witness even at his last moment.

The boy past away at the age of seventeen due to blood loss.

*

In the back of the slum, there was a secluded area where the smell wouldn be pleasant on the nose of people, it was an area full of garbages, rotten foods, unusable materials, and… Animal cadavers, and others.

The smell could make someone want to vomit, it can also make a person catch a deadly disease when they stayed here.

But when eyes look closely, at the center of these files of garbage and cadavers, one could see a body of a little kid, its a thin body and pale skin, where he looked like 2 years old.

Anyone could tell that the little kid is dead and was thrown in the area, who did it, no one knows.

No one even stared in shock at the body.

The reason is.

It is already normal to them.

For those who live in slums filled with misery, no one has the time to mourn others death, they live in a hell hole, and they would already be thankful just for a piece of sliced bread.

Killing others for a single tip of food.

This situation is already common, if you want to survive then learn how to live.

But unbeknownst to them.

The little kid which was already dead suddenly moved.

His small thin fingers quivered and his breathing slowly came back alive.

His eyes slowly open, and when his blurry eyes become clear.

What comes to his sight was not a hospital but instead a dark area filled with unknown smells to him.

He quickly covered his nose and tried not to vomit.

He was about to get out but there was something he touch, it was slimy and disgustingly soft.

When he looked, it was a rotten corpse of an unborn child.

He silently shout and desperately escape from the sight he had seen.

It did not fail him to see a file of thrashers and dead animals with maggots and roaches.

As soon as he was finally able to get out, he puked until he felt that his stomach is empty, however, he could not help but churn up, he doesn even want to inhale the air, he knew, that his body smell like that.

The little kid doesn even want to cover his nose with his hands.

He looks everywhere and notice how deadly quiet the place are, he started to walk and it did not take a moment for him to see two buckets of dirty water.

He hesitated at first but decided to take the buckets.

However, he could not lifts it, he furrowed his eyes wondering why it was so heavy, he looks at the water and widen his eyes in shock.

”huh? ”

Round amber eyes and icy color hair, with his haggard face, one could still see that if this little kid was given some flesh it won be a surprise that he is cute.

But that is not what shocked him.

…who is this little kid…? Wait, its… Me???, he thought

The reflection on the water is following what he was doing.

It took a moment for him to calm down and decided to use the water quietly by slowly bending downward the bucket and washing his hands.

He still frowns, because even if he washes his hand with water, the smell is still there.

He needs new clothes but where?

He discarded the fact of him having another body, a body of a kid at most.

He has no time to panic, what situation he was in is much more important.

Time is precious, it would be dangerous if he had caught a disease.

Seeing the house that looks quiet, he decided to went inside efforts trying to be silent.

This house is small and old as if no one is living, he gulped when he reaches the door.

As his finger touches the tip of the door handle, he slowly holds it and twists it silently.

He pushes the door slowly not to make a sound and peeked at what was inside using his eyes.

He found out there is no one in the house so, he quickly got inside and started to search for some clothes.

The little kid felt sorry for doing this but he has no choice. Surviving is whats important to him right now.

He searches every area of the house until he reaches a certain room, he opens it cringing himself as the door made a cracking sound, fortunately, no one is in the house except him.

What is inside the house made him smile a bit.

It was clothes, an old single bed, however, the clothes are for adults and it is not sizable on his small body, but he doesn have a choice, he picked the dirty White sleeve and search for some sharp object.

He also notices that the house is not that modern, and this made him grow worried.

After a few seconds, he saw a knife on the small table, he took it and started to cut the lower volume of the clothes.

After successfully cutting it, he immediately wears it after removing his clothes.

As soon as he wears it, the clothes are still big covering his lower body, the little boy only sighed at this and also remove the shorts and underwear.

He has no choice, he thinks it would be a problem if he doesn remove the clothes he is wearing when he wakes up.

He search for something that could at least cover his little boy, there he find underwear for adult men, he and frowned and search for some strings.

But there is no string at all, only a thin rope which he frowns but takes it as well, he used the rope to tie it to the underwear before he wore it.

”The **ing door is open!!! ”

The little boy quickly reacts, his body started to panic, trembling uncontrollably, and he reacts looking for somewhere to hide.

He saw the window and opens it, however, he saw that there are five people outside and knew if he went out right now, he will be caught.

The little boy has never experienced something like this, back in his past life, he at least has a normal life, even if they are poor, he did not experience something like this thanks to his mother and father supporting him and his brother.

He heard footsteps slowly coming into the room where he was.

He became more scared as he imagine him getting beaten, the little boy instinctively knew he won be spared despite his appearance, his knees started to tremble as his eyes keep looking everywhere.

Soon, he found a wooden chest, it has metal and it was not locked, the little boy quickly hide in the chest, hoping not to be found.

”Hey! I think the person goes to my room! ”

”Shit! ”

The little boy widens his eyes when he notices whats next beside him, blocks…

Lots of Gold blocks.

The door of the room forcibly opened along with a deep terrifying voice.

”Who are you!? ”

The man whose appearance was big enough to terrify others barged into the room, the man found no one, he was about to get out but his brows furrowed as the man notice a fair of clothes that has been sliced and a knife on the ground, alongside with a kids clothes which smell made him frown.

”This smell… Isn this smell just like in that dead area? ”

The man looked everywhere and notice the window is open, he looked at the window and saw his friends waving at him.

He look under his bed and afterward crossed his arms.

He picked up the clothes on the floor and notice it was for kids.

”that **ing kid… He did not just cut my clothes but also left these disgusting clothes! ”

He used his fist to hammer the wall making a loud bang, the little boy was surprised at the sound and could not help but yelp.

The man knitted his brows and turn silent, he looks again everywhere and saw his treasure chest.

”that chest… ”

oh no!

The little boy blames himself for getting surprised, he waited for a moment to get caught, hoping for the hope of him not to get beaten.

The mans hand touched the chest and was about to open it.

”Hey! Did you find something?! ”

The man stopped himself from opening the chest and looked out the window.

”Yeah! Theres nothing here instead it seems a brat came here, and it seems they escaped from this window! ”

After the man replied to his friend, he was about to get out but stopped and turn his face to the chest.

He heads towards the chest which made the little boy nervous.

Clack!

”Better lock this… ”

shit!

The little boy is now trapped in the chest…

”Hey, Toto, lift the chest we are going to get out of this place! ”

”Why don you **ing help me you **tard! ”

”you can do it! ”

”tch ”

The man despite him being angry still lifted the chest alone and got confused why it seems it grew heavy.

”Is it just my imagination? ”

***

The little boy couldn help but pray, he doesn know where they are going but he knew, that as soon as they open his chest they will found him.

What happens to him next, he doesn know.

… these guys are dangerous… ”

He grew more scared and clasped his hand.

help me…!!!

When the little boy opens his eyes, his mouth opens widely along with his eyes.

A paper-length screen appeared in front of him, what it shows is familiar to him.

A search engine, is a word that displays as Map, Library, and storage.

He was surprised but then frown.

How does this help me in my situation?

First, this screen came out of nowhere, it is a hindrance in his sight if this screen figure won disappear, second, how will this help him, and third, where he was?

He calms himself, there is a map, so, he tried to touch it but his finger only passes on the screen.

He furrowed his brows and could not help but feel irritated.

No, it is his fault, he just digs his own grave.

um… Map?

He thought it won work but in just a second his eyes saw a map point, it seems that he was on a strange continent, he saw what place he was in right now.

Nehemuth Kingdom…?

The map only shows one country, he was puzzled but concluded that this is the place where he was in.

He think of closing the map and it was gone, he saw the paper shape screen again and used the search engine.

He then thought.

how could I get out of the chest.

Soon a sentence came and it said.

[it is common sense to open the chest]

A tick mark appeared on his forehead and think again.

how can you get out inside of the chest when you got locked.

[Wait for a person to open it]

[Call for help]

Damn it…

He has no choice but to wait.

He opens the library and the paper screen turns into a set of titles of a book lining the screen which he can also scroll down.

What he finds in the library is something his unfamiliar with, he found out that the books in the library are about this world he was in.

He still could not believe that he is in an otherworld.

Screech!!!

He was caught off guard when the chest suddenly banged on the ground.

”Boss, here is the chest. ”

”…good. ”

The little boy panicked, he doesn know what to do.

He used the search engine again and thought How can I escape from a dangerous predicament.

[ You must run.]

[Tried to negotiate and find some advantage before taking an offense.]

[Lie down and pretend you are dead.]

….

it seems to run is more… At point…
