T-That's me?

Allen covered his eyes as he burst out of the half-cleanly cut building's ground floor.

Hoooo!

He exhaled and inhaled deeply and quickly.

Allen had run down the stairs as fast as his damaged body could run and handle the pain. He faltered a few steps, which was understandable due to the region where he felt pain.

"Fuck! These two bastard Allens!"

Hooo!

"What's with these crazy bastards? One had a hole in his ass, and this guy's body doesn't even know if there's a hole in the front."

Allen Sigma, aka our protagonist, who had one of the weirdest deaths, was cursing the two Allens' bodies for their injuries.

He finally caught his breath after that much running and cursing and stood straight.

He was facing the surrounding area as he stood.

"That... That's gorgeous!"

He looked at the building across the road, coloured in a soothing golden colour, which had a strong and sturdy build with pointed arches and gargoyles of different, unknown, and mythical creatures on it. It even had many intricate designs on it from the bottom of the building to the highest stop on it, and all these designs led to a symbol, or rather, it appeared to be an insignia of some sort. It appeared to be five stories tall, similar to the building he was in.

"I really wanted to see these buildings in person; they're even more marvellous in person than in photos."

The building in front of him looked very similar in design to the gothic architecture buildings on his planet Earth.

Allen, who lived in a village for more than half of his life, didn't have the chance to see such marvellous architecture in person; he had seen them in these textbooks and on his phone through the internet, but never this up close.

As he thought of something, he pivoted and took a complete view of the surroundings.

"All the buildings have a Gothic-inspired build."

He gazed at all the buildings visible; everyone had a similar design to the building across the road, and he then turned towards the building, of which he collected half.

Allen rubbed his temple, chuckled halfheartedly, and shook his head. "So... it too had the same architecture."

"What? Do you regret collecting it, master?" Sia side-eyed him and probed.

Allen shook his head and said, "No, I don't. In fact, I like it that I have such a masterpiece in my collection."

Sia blinked approvingly and spoke coldly, "You better have no regrets, master."

'Isn't that a threat?'

It sounded like a threat to him.

What?

He couldn't have any regrets after he collected something.

Gulp!

He swallowed his small, dry saliva.

He had the urge to retort for his rights to regret, but he knew where this would lead him, so he kept it all to himself.

He shook his head hard to get rid of such self-destroying thoughts and again looked around.

The only thing his eyes focused on was the beautiful buildings, which aroused a question in his mind, so he spoke out loud so Sia could also hear him.

"Is this the medieval era for this Super-?" However, he had to stop midsentence as he saw the vicious gaze of Sia focused on him.

He subconsciously took a step back and blurted out, "What?"

She had you-really-are-an-idiot-master type of expression on her face, and the viciousness in her eyes intensified as Allen took a step back and exclaimed crookedly.

"Master," she said eerily, and the viciousness in her eyes intensified even more.

"Master, you really are a freaking disappointment."

The veins on Allen's forehead were twitching vigorously to the point that it seemed they would burst out at any moment.

Well, why not?

If anyone would be called a 'freaking disappointment,' they would also feel the same, or maybe not, but if they were called this by a creature of the size of a pipsqueak, they would definitely curse and have a brawl with them.

'Control Allen, control, control. God has given me a new life. Control.'

If he could, he would have gladly killed her without an ounce of remorse.

He clenched his hands tightly and waited for her to continue because he had known her for a whole hour, and from this, he had the idea of what to say to her and what not to say.

Seeing him not respond in any way, she continued and spoke haughtily, "Didn't I tell you, master, to observe things properly, master? Huh?! Didn't I master?!"

Nod. Nod.

Allen nodded as he remembered what she had told him: that he should always be aware of his surroundings and know about the situation and his surroundings.

"But you see, master,"

Tap. Tap.

She tapped her index finger on her forearm.

"You don't seem to understand and follow it, master."

"You chased that guy and came out of the building, but did you remember anyone from the building or was there anyone suspicious?"

She looked at Allen with her intensified, vicious gaze as if wanting a reply, but continued even before Allen could move a single muscle in his mouth.

"No, you didn't. You were not even aware of the people in the hallway; guess what? I was, and while you chased that idiot, I continuously observed the surroundings and the people all the way, and I found a creep who was watching you from the start as you ran out of the room and till you ran down the stairs after collecting the half of the building."

She didn't stop and continued speaking as if there was no tomorrow. "That's not the only thing; look there." She then pointed her fingers in the distance towards the sky.

"..."

{...A few eternity later...}

"WHAT THE FUCK!!!"

When he saw where she was pointing, his reaction was intense, and if someone other than him had been there in his place, their reaction would not have been any less.
