1036 Words
In a dark and shadowy place, a man, rather, a boy lay on the floor with a heavily thick fog surrounding him. The emerald green hair of the boy radiated in the darkness. He seemed to be unconscious. The space next to him warped and a figure emerged from it. Armor with a metallic black color, height an outstanding six feet 7 inches. The figure walked with regality as the robe over it’s armor dragged along the floor. The tall figure walked around the unconscious boy, seeming to inspect him. “ so this is what He has sent, a boy?” the silhouette said with a tone of mockery speaking to itself. *cough* a cough came from the green haired youth, seeing this happen the silhouette saved it’s robes and in the next second iit had disappeared seeming like it wasn’t even there in the first place. Meanwhile A young scrawny man was administering some drugs to the green haired boy beside him. Justin had fallen heavily sick after the previous incident. It had been three days now since he was fully conscious. In and out of concsiousness was his way of life these past three days. The scrawny man had to stop feeding the drugs to Justin since he had started violently coughing, he tried everyway to calm him down but nothing worked. Creepy black veins stretched throughout justin's neck . Seeing this The man thought to himself “ if this continues like this, this man will die. I better go call baba” clueless at the situation he had to call the chief doctor, his father. */host condition very weak, automatically administering health potion. Health potion activated….host's condition stabilized/* following the words of the system, the shaking Justin gradually calmed down. With his color brightening and the black veins disappearing. His eyes slowly came open revealing the lemon green iris that complemented his hair. Removing the cover over his body, he stood looking around, not recognizing where he was. Seeing something that looked like a standing mirror, he went over to it checking out himself. “ ah that’s it, these perfectly chiseled muscles are mine” he said raising his biceps up to his face, he kissed them with a smile on his face “ ah what’s this beautiful thing in the mirror? Ah yes….its my face hehe” a narcissistic smile plastered his face, although he saw he had a younger face...What could surprise him again after the centipede? So he just took it without a thought. “ baba here he is, his condition is very critical. He need immediate attention” suddenly a scrawny man entered the room with a man wedding some kind of native dress and a few ornamental on his body. Expecting to see a dying man on the bed, instead what greeted their sights was a man standing in front of the mirror while admiring himself. The awkwardness of the situation was basically sky high. The two strangers looked at Justin as he stood rigid in the position he was in before they came in. The scrawny man was real confused “wasn’t this the man that was dying a few minutes ago? How was he now standing? He was flexing his muscles in the mirror….” He thought. The middle aged man looked at Justin then looked at the scrawny man expecting an explanation. “uhh….” The scrawny man scratched his head while trying to find a suitable explanation “ I could see he was dying just a while ago….” He mumbled. The fierce stare of the chief doctor was like nails to the heart of the scrawny man “ kulin!” The chief doctor called with underlying signs of anger in his voice. The scrawny man whose name was kulin jolted at the sound of the doctor's word “ yes baba….” He weakly answered. “you think being an alchemist is a joke?” the chief doctor's voice was icy cold. Kulin was now fidgeting “no baba” he answered. The chief doctor remained silent for a while before his next words that greeted kulin coldly “get out!” he said. Gritting his teeth with his hands clenched, kulin didn’t dre disobey and could only obey. Justin the center of the two's confusion was as confused as they were. Who were they even? He had wanted to ask but it would have been rude to have interrupted their little drama so he just watched. Now it was only the doctor and Justin in the room, the doctor's unpleasant expression changed as he smiled at Justin “ young man, are you feeling okay? He said walking closer to Justin. Justin thought “I’m as old as you are mister” but he couldn’t that now in this type of setting, could He? “I’m okay sir” he returned the smile and answered politely. The doctor was now close enough to touch Justin and he raised his hand up to justin's face like he was checking for something. “hmmm you certainly are” he said as he continued feeling up different parts of Justin’s face. Justin was extremely uncomfortable with the man’s actions, why the f**k would he be feeling up his face like that? He wasn’t gay!. The man noticed his discomfort and stopped his actions “ ah sorry for that, in an alchemist. That was just me measuring ur host’s health condition” the chief doctor said with a broad smile. Justin was relieved at his words “no worries sir. But where I’m I? How'd I end up here?” justin asked, his memory was still blurry. The man answered “ This is Wonpas. The gate guards found you three days ago, patched toured and sickly looking. So they brought you in for ttreatme-“ at that moment the doctor was cut off by the sound of the door opening. Thinking it was kulin who he had sent outside earlier, he was about to give him a harsh talk down when the person came in view “dad!” a voice that gave the feeling of a thousands flowers blooming, came from the woman who had barged in.
