Chapter 38

My mind was in chaos. I think that I currently live as three years old Renneshia. I'm writing in my room, then I think I fell asleep. Yet how could I currently in be this place?

In a situation that could be described as 'between a rock and a hard place' as I was currently between these two scary groups. It's just a dream. I will wake up and saw my prison-like room like usual.

"You can do anything to capture her but don't kill her. We should bring her alive to our Lord. We must capture her even if we have to die." The person who seems to be the leader of the black outfit group wake.

'Why does he want to capture me? No, not me but the person that I became in this dream.'

"Huh? Did they try to barge to our territory?" Someone said from behind.

From his voice, he seems to be quite emotional and a bit immature. I could hear their footsteps getting closer to my direction. I can't move my body and it seems that I lost a lot of blood because of my injuries. Is this my end?

"Leader, should we warn them?" Another voice comes from behind me.

There is a brief silence.

Then...

"Stop there! Identify yourself and tell us your reason for barging into our territory or we will attack you for trespassing into our territory." Another person shouted and briefly stop the people in black.

"It's not your business don't interfere with our mission to capture that woman. We will kill you if you keep interfering with our mission. Scram!" The leader of the man in the black outfit also shouted at the group of people on my back.

My head, especially my ears hurts. Why do you shout so loud?

As I feel that my body becomes heavy and it became hard to breathe.

"Attack them." A calm voice came from behind.

"Kill them all!" The leader of the man in the black outfit also gives his order.

The two groups started to kill each other. I could only watch them. But strangely that I was able to keep my mind calm in front of this kind of violence that happened in front of me. Even in my past life, I never saw such gore without any censorship. But I could watch it calmly now and didn't feel uncomfortable with the smell of the blood that become stronger as their fight continue.

'This must be a dream. But how could it feel so real?'

Some blood flies in my direction. I could feel it on my skin. It was so real. And the scar and bruises on my body are as hurt as hell. If it was a dream then why don't I'm awake?

Magic, weapons, blood and bodies that keep flying in front of me. How scary.

'What happens? Why do I watch it calmly? Is this some kind of enlightenment?'

I feel that it was really strange. I want to move but I can't move my body. I want to close my eyes to prevent myself from looking at this horrible scenery but I am also unable to do that. I became more confused with what currently happened to me.

The fight still continues around me. But I could see that the group of people with black outfits was losing to the other group. The members of the mysterious group seem to be a group of great people. Their movement shows their experience. Although they seem to be moving freely but they were actually moving in harmony and helping each other from their enemy.

Oh no, my mind seems to be jumping to another topic again. I often did this when I'm too immersed in my thought.

'Did my soul also jump to another body?'

No, no, no. It was impossible. But isn't reincarnated as some game characters are also something that I thought was impossible before?!

I don't know what really happens right now. And it doesn't feel like a dream which scared me.

Throb.

My heart seems to be throbbing and I could feel the pain that I feel become more horrible.

"Ugh!" A groan comes from this body's mouth.

As if it was outside of my control, I could feel that the magic flowing and the pain started to lessen. Is this some kind of healing magic?

This body starts to get better and is able to move. But it is still too weak as this body seems to lose too much blood. This body started to move and slowly dragged itself to move away from the battlefield. But...

"Where are you trying to run away after making us to fight against each other?"

A beautiful but scary voice coming from behind me. If it's just a dream, why do I feel chills on my back? Why can't I wake up? Why do I feel that I have become a ghost that possesses or is sealed in another person's body?

"If I don't go from this place, they will keep coming here. I'm sorry for troubling you. It was an accident that I fell into your territory. Their target is me so I must leave as quickly as possible from your territory." This body that I possess said with a weak voice.

I was surprised to hear her voice. It was so weak and there is a tint of fear in her voice. Something terrible seems to happen to her past. I feel a bit curious about what happens.

'No. It's not the time to care about this body's past.'

"I don't care about it. But you should pay us for the trouble that you cause us. Do you think that I will let you run away and leave us with this trouble?" The person moves closer as his voice becomes closer to my direction.

This body look up and I could see the person that coming from behind. He was a handsome young man with silver hair and mesmerizing golden eyes. He was smiling brightly but I feel that it was the scariest thing that I ever saw...no, it was as scary as when Brother Winslow was angry.

"Hmm, you are from ###! Why do you come here? Is it related to the ### order? Or do you have any revelation for us?" He asked with a suspicious gaze.

But why do I feel there was a censorship program in this body? There is some part where his voice was seems to be suddenly disappeared.

"No. I should leave. Their target is me and I need to go to meet that child. They might be searching for them if they can't find me. I will repay you if you let me go now."

This body seems to be determined and wanted to go somewhere. I could feel that she was really worried about the child that she said. But how can she reach her destination with this rags-like body?

"With that body?? You are lying, right?!" The silver hair man said as if he feels her words were unbelievable and too foolish to believe in.

"What are you doing? Did your heart become soft because she was a woman?" Another man coming closer.

I think his voice is similar to the one that they called as a 'leader' before. As he got closer, I could see his appearance. He has a similar handsome face but there are some differences between the two of them as he has golden hair and mysterious purple eyes. He has a charismatic aura of a leader.

"Can you see that she was ###? She said she will leave this place to not trouble us." The silver hair man said with a tired tone.

"Huh?! You are kidding me, right?" The golden hair man's gaze suddenly becomes sharper.

He tried to check if the silver hair man was kidding but he has a serious expression. After he gets the answer, he is getting closer and takes a good look at my appearance.

"You are right, she was ###. Hey, you need to repay us now."

"Kyaaa!!!"

The golden hair man suddenly put this body on his shoulder. I feel that this man treats this body like some potato sack. And he took this body to a nearby building.

"Let me go!" This body tries to break free from him but this body is too weak to fight him.

"You can't leave this place until you repay your debt for the trouble that you give us." He said with an annoying tone.

Thumb.

My heart feels hurt but at the same time, I am also able to sense that this body is angry at that golden hair man.

Then suddenly I feel that everything gets darker.

'What happens?!'

***

"...dy...right?"

I could hear someone shake my shoulders. It was a familiar voice.

"My Lady, are you alright? What happened?" Brother Winslow shouted to with a worried voice.

"Hnn? Brother Winslow, what happened? Why do you look like that?" I ask while still feeling dazed.

"I come to check on your condition but then I heard you groaning in pain and unconscious so I think you are sick. Are you still feel hurt anywhere?" Brother Winslow said while trying to make sure that I was alright.

"I'm alright. You don't have to worry about it. I'm just having a strange dream." I told him to calm him down.

"You are telling me the truth, right?" Brother Winslow asked with a sharp gaze.

"It was the truth. Oh right, is that my lunch? Isn't it better if I went to the kitchen to take my..."

I couldn't continue my words because his face has become scary. I want to take back my words before. After all, the scariest thing in this world is when Brother Winslow gets angry.

I could only listen to his nagging before he leave for his work. But sadly his nagging continue when he bought my dinner later.
