Sleepysoul

Prologue

I opened my eyes and blinked a few times. I sense unfamiliarity, but I still cannot think straight about this feeling that makes me so uneasy. 

Who I am? Where am I? After the moment had passed, I got up from the bed and saw everything in a daze. I was in a single bed that was made from wood and a thin mattress. 

The smells of burning wood lingering and I saw a fireplace in the room. There are no memories in my head. 

I shake my head as hard as I can and hope that things will get back in place. And then I saw a piece of paper that crumbled at my hand.
 
“Dear Vierra, as you wish I erased your memory from your old life and granted you the cooking skills that will help you in this new world. And let the memory of your recipe from passed life remain. I Hope your new life will give you a better life. From me who cannot be named.”

I let out a heavy sigh. Is this some lame joke? There is a sling bag under the tiny table beside the bed. I found a diary with a name written in front of it. 

“Vierra Maverick”

World of Lost and Found

Dylan opened the lid and drank a whole bottle in a few gulps. His complexion became brighter almost instantly. And just like a man who just woke up from a satisfying sleep, he looked refreshed.


"In the middle of this market? No, I recognise the elixirs."


I just sigh and keep wondering, why is this guy so weird?


My eyes widening at the golden fairy words. 


The golden fairy looked confused but he nodded. Maybe he took it as a request from a princess.


"I didn't take it for free. I will go to the inn later and pay for it. And also, I will pay for the candy too. He been cranky for not have enough of it this morning"


Dylan then walked away with some of his friends who called him over.


Seems like he is coming with different team members this time.


"Wait..what? He knew… he heard the fairy?"


Red fairies and blue fairies nodded at my words.


I let out a soft sigh. Sorry mother. The prince knew. No wonder the golden fairy looked rather confused.


I look for Ronan, and it seems that Ronan has met Lorcan. They share the sweets with everyone. 


They walked away to let me and Dylan talk and went for Lorcan who was just a few stalls away.


We then go to the Mr.Jusco stall for rest a bit. He set up a table and a few chairs for us a few feet away from his stalls. It's perfectly under the shed of the big tree.


I took out the lemonade ice that I made this morning and stored it inside the magic pouch.


I gave some to Mr.Jusco while some of his customers looked at the drink with curious eyes.


Mr.jusco stall was full of people. Half of his customers were beastmen, there are also humans and elves. 


It's already past noon, but we already ate the noodles so we were not that hungry and the twins were sharing the items they both had.


The big tree area was on higher ground than the merchant market area. Greg was sitting on the slope, cleaning his new spear.


Hugo was leaning at the big tree behind us, closing his eyes, but I know he had his keen ears open on  his surroundings.


I look around the market, from the seat I can see the canvas that covers their stall, some use their own carriage to be their stall.


Some mechant build a small shed, I guess there are wealthy merchants since they can afford to pay the five gold coins.


In the third path, the farthest path from the main gate and the closest to the main road, a young skinny boy being yelled at by a fat and ugly merchant.


The young boy holds a basket which is half of his body size and tries to ask the merchant to buy it from him. 


Few more adult merchants drove away a young boy. He looks a few years older than the twin. His white shirt was torn and his trousers too small for him.


"Please...we plant it by ourselves. This is delicious and fresh green can be eaten raw"


The young boy pleaded with the merchant who had a golden tooth.


The merchant pushed the boy, the skinny boy fell on the ground and there's tears in his eyes.


A small girl, younger than the twins, helps his brother stand.


The girl throws small stones to the merchant. The merchant who rose in anger choked the girl. 


I can't watch it anymore teleported in front of them.
