"nonetheless this body is quite expressive."
She could feel her own mouth tugged when she's happy. or even let out tears when she's sad. but then again, she didn't have a companion to talk to in this world.
Thank you for your gift, Kami-sama.
she wiped out her tears with her hand. Ren were expecting for the salt water to come inside her eyes but it didn't hurt her it seems.
Then she blanked when she saw nothing but a vast ocean. how... do I survive?
especially when there's no island nearby?
"I feel like piece of trash that floats in the sea."
Ren stopped her movement to stay afloat and let herself got dragged by the waves instead. thankfully it's just a calm sea.
"but then again if it gets dangerous I can just dive back and stay inside one of the houses below."
a very viable plan indeed. me.
she couldn't help but let out a small laugh at her own intelligence.
then her eyes become focused towards the clouds. it's indeed beautiful. she can't help but lament about her own incompetence. if I just have a little bit more knowledge, I might be able to locate nearby island.
the city below her, looks like an artificial island. just how did it sank?
if she did read the documents in the briefcase. she also might know about what she is.
she could breath underwater. that is a trait that a human do not have.
Ren lost in her own thoughts, her eyes lids feels heavy over time. and fell asleep.
from noon to dusk. the sky were totally orange by the time she woke up. or forcefully woken up.
**splash**
Ren got washed up by the a strong waves making her fully awake.
her eyes met with an eyeball.
no more like a whale?
she blinked. her brain short circuited for a moment.
"c-calm down. it might not an aggressive kind, no?"
she swam away from it by reflex. but the next thing that makes her heart jump is that it was following her.
w-why? human are not tasty you know!?
she felt terrified that unknownlly tears start slipped out of her eyes. it deluted in the water tho.
to dive? or not?
then she looked downwards. the sight of a certain king of the sea makes her feels light headed.
that's it. this is the end.
the whale although big it swam between the shark and her. making them seperated by its body.
this moves makes Ren pretty puzzled.
It comes closer to her squeezing her on top of him fowards the surface.
**splash**
they emerged from the sea water. Ren who's brain isn't working anymore could only hold on into the whale.
("Ca----re-------ful, gi----rl.")
the whale gave out a loud sound at the same time a window popped up in front of Ren vision.
then it clicked inside her head.
it saved her?
...
Now that Ren has encountered a kind... being. of course she wanted to converse with it.
unexpectedly the window only showed up if it let out a sound that were meant for her only. of course this only her deduction.
even after swimming in the dark for a few hours. she could not pop the window out. Mr. whale sometimes let out a sound or two every half an hour.
"Kind... being?"
I wonder if it apply to me too.
She's not a human. and she didn't come to a fantasy world or something where's different intellegent species accepted.
will they have prejudice against me?
it was then she saw a breathtaking scenery.
the water below were shallow and she could see the city below lighting up one by one.
"woah. so pretty."
the luminated light that she saw were like those triple A games back in her past life.
her surrounding water become full of light. it was then she saw a flickering red light up in the far distance.
a land?
Mr. whale seems to know where's human settlement are.
