I slowly opened my eyes, and found a wooden ceiling in front of me. I immediately woke up and realized that I was on a very wide bed. Not only that, the walls and floor of this room were completely made of wood. This ..., "Where is this? As I recall, I fell asleep under a tree in the forest after I managed to escape from the kidnapper's den. Wait, didn't I escape with Kuro and Diamond?!"I looked around, but couldn't find them at all."Damn! Don't tell me they were..., taken away by someone?!”
My ears caught the sound of someone sliding the door, making me immediately turn my head towards the source of the sound. It turned out to be a young man with long black hair tied in a traditional Chinese outfit that was completely golden yellow, entering while carrying a bowl of soup and rice from a tray. "Ah, you finally woke up, young man," he said as he put the food on the table on the right side of the bed.
“Who is that mysterious man?! Could it be..., he is one of the members of the kidnapping gang?!” I quickly got up from the bed and immediately got into a fighting stance. Well, even though I knew I couldn’t win against him, at least I didn’t want to just stay silent and give up! However, the unknown man only looked at my ready-to-fight attitude calmly, as if he didn’t feel threatened at all. He only smiled softly at me. “Calm down, young man. I didn’t mean to hurt you.” He said with a thin smile.
“Hah, bullshit! I knew you were planning something bad on me!” I clenched my fists and glared at the man angrily, trying to gather my strength. A moment later, I ran towards the man and launched my fist at his face. However, he just brushed it aside when my fist almost hit its target.
“Guh! Not wanting to waste the opportunity, I aimed my left leg to kick the man’s stomach. But unfortunately, he managed to catch my leg and twist it, making me scream in pain, leaving me hanging.
The man just stared at me while holding my leg, as if he didn't want to let go. He smiled and said, "Didn't I tell you, I have no intention of hurting you, young man. So, don't worry."
Aagghh! I want to throw up! When I wanted to grab the hand that was holding my leg to free myself, the unknown man grabbed my left leg instead. Aaaargh! I screamed in pain as loud as I could, but kept trying to get out of his grip. Unfortunately, he kept holding me while smiling, as if I was no match for him. Damn it! If I could free myself, I would beat you up!
The unknown man immediately pushed me. Because I didn't expect it, I fell backwards. Luckily my back landed first, not my head. However, my left leg still hurt, the effect of being squeezed by the mysterious man. Not to mention my back landed on the wooden floor quite hard. Ugh! I could only lie on the wooden floor, with pain spreading throughout my body. Damn! I didn't expect him to be so strong!
The man just chuckled for a moment then said, "You're still easily carried away by your mood, young man. Be patient, don't be easily provoked."
“Tch! Does he want to give me advice? Although my body is like a 10-year-old child, my soul is actually a man in his 20s! So, don't treat me like a snotty kid!” I just gave the mysterious man a sharp glare full of anger, while he just smiled at me. "Why are you smiling like that, huh?! Are you satisfied that you defeated me?!" I said angrily in a rebuking tone.
The unknown man just shook his head briefly with his smile still etched. "I see something different about you, young man. By the way, what's your name?"
I kept staring at the mysterious man sharply and answered briefly. "Diego .... Diego Von Deen ...." I said positioning myself to stand.
The unknown man chuckled again and said, "No, that's not it. What's your real name, young man?"
I was speechless. Don't tell me this guy... knows that I'm the one who transmigrated to this world?! This is bad! Could it be that this person in front of me is... a God like Kaoru?! Tch! Why does my existence always attract the attention of divine entities?! Even though I hate them so much! The unknown man just took a deep breath and smiled at me. "Young man, calm yourself down. I can see that your soul is not the same as your body. So, I guess you are the one who was called to this world."
