Misa Flowrain -> Misa Nesscad
Chapter 2
" your name is … Lex… Lex Mikaela "
That's the last thing I heard before I passed out. After that, I woke up a few times, only to lose my consciousness again before fully regaining it.
….
I felt like I was floating in endless darkness before finally regaining consciousness again.
I tried to remember what had happened. Then, finally, my memories slowly returned to me about the accident, my colleagues dying right before my eyes, the bus explosion, and how I passed out. But I don't know how much time has passed since the accident, how it happened, what caused the accident in the first place. So I focused on my senses when I heard someone's voice.
"Look! Look! Lex woke up! "
My vision became much more apparent than before, and I saw a beautiful woman with long black hair in front of my eyes. Although I was stunned to see her, I remembered. she was the woman I had seen before. There was no more sign of tiredness. Instead, her rosy face was bright and happy, looking at me from above.
Then I heard another voice from beside the woman. "Ooohh!! He's looking this way! call me papa!" So handsome!! The blonde-haired man looked otherworldly handsome, like he just came out of a manga. He was a little muscular but not too bulky. He seems like an honest person. The attractive man also looks at me while hugging the beautiful woman. To be frank, they looked more like sophisticated drawings rather than actual human beings.
"What are you saying? There is no way Lex can do that !"
"Ahaha, sorry, sorry, I'm just so excited!"
"Uwaaaaaa!!"
I was startled by my own crying sound in place of the (Who?) is I intended to say.
"See?! it's all your fault!!" the beautiful woman pushed the handsome man and then picked me up
"Now now, my lex.. don't be afraid, don't be afraid," continued the woman while patting my back.
Okay, now I understand what is happening here. It doesn't seem wrong that I died. I didn't survive the accident. But what about my junior? Well, who cares!
(Ku, kuhahahahaha) no more bullshit, I'm reincarnated!!!!
There's no way for me. Who loves novels and manga, to not understand my situation now. But why did the woman and the man, who are definitely my parents, speak English?
Hmmm… This must be the ability of the legendary skill that's always conveniently used in isekai -another world- genre, Translation Magic! But my mother language is not English... well, it doesn't matter. More importantly, I am now in THE world of sword and magic!!
(Mwahaahahahaa , my harem here I comeee!!!!)
On the other side, my parents, who didn't know what I was thinking trying hard to calm me down cause only a crying voice could come out from my baby's mouth.
***
It's been some time since I understood my situation. The kind-looking Asian woman with black hair and an attractive appearance overall is my mother, Misa Nesscad. On the other hand, the honest-looking handsome man with blonde hair is my father, Clive Mikaela.
Besides my parents, I also saw some people who came to visit, and they all speak English. So at least I can understand what they say even though English is not my mother language.
It was a boring life. I couldn't move much with this baby's body. Holding out and stretching my arms was all that I could do. Most of my time as a baby is used to sleeping. Besides that, I spent all my time moving and turning my body. I heard baby's cries is to practice their vocal cords -don't ask where I heard it! I don't remember-, that's why I'm not shy to cry when calling my parents.
But of course, I don't unreasonably cry in the middle of the night unless I really need their help. I'm sure everyone who saw me will agree that I'm a super calm baby and easy to care for.
The only problem bugging me now is whether I was reincarnated into this world as a baby and remembered my previous life. Or my soul took this body from the real soul that this body belongs to.
After a while, I decided not to think about it too much, but it still bothers me somehow. I just hope the answer is the first so that I am not guilty to my current parents.
As I live my new life, I realize that strangely, everything around me, the furniture, building, and clothes are all similar to those in my old world. With this, I know I'm not reincarnated in the middle ages, but the 20th century. This way, I didn't have to worry about hygiene, diseases, and other things. But there was still no sign of my parents or the people around them using magic or swords.
***
Six months have passed.
I can finally say goodbye to my boring life. Or so I thought.
It looks like my hard work did pay off beautifully since I can now crawl around. My sleep time is still the same as before, but I can move freely in this room. I checked all the things in this room one by one, as I thought all the items were similar to the needs of babies in my old world, the words were written in English. Could this really be the ability of translation magic? I'm not as sure anymore.
My father Clive is rarely in this room. Maybe he came when I was asleep? But as far as I know, when I woke up, my mother Misa was always beside me. Maybe Misa wasn't working? I still don't know anything. And after a short excitement about being able to move around, my life became dull again. Welcome home, my boring life...
****
Another six months have passed.
AT LAST!!!!! I can walk out of this room!!!!
Indeed, after one year, I can finally walk even though it's a bit shaky. Besides that…
"ma…..ma…."
I can talk!!! , when mother Misa first heard my voice, she was so touched she cried while hugging me tightly. Then from behind her father, Clive looked at me with a pair of eyes full of expectation.
*pui
I immediately look away from his face, "nooo!!!"
hearing him cry from the side is not my problem…
Of course, I will choose the former between a beautiful mother and a handsome father. As a man in my old life, beautiful women always have different statuses in my mind.
It's definitely not what you think since a baby less than 1-year-old can't get excited by his mother, and I haven't fallen that low yet. Besides, I never felt anything while breastfeeding.
Well is not essential, but for sure, Mother is still number one.
The first thing I did was walk around the house. This house is quite large with three rooms, a big living room, and a kitchen. Electronic goods or other items have the same function as my old world. The shape is slightly different, almost all of which I recognize and understand how to use it.
As I was checking the items in the living room one by one, I heard something, and to me, it was like the trumpet blown by an angel on the end of the world.
"Back to world news! Today's latest news. America's newest presidential election has begun, with presidential candidate number 1 .... "
I froze after hearing the news. Father Clive and Mother Misa, who followed my little adventure, were also confused by my sudden behavior.
"Next, we have an earthquake in Japan with 2.6 on the Richter scale. Luckily, there are no casualties ... "
...
They looked at each other with a confused look before trying to call me.
"Lex? What's wrong?"
I still didn't move
"Next, we have china …" with my last hope, I purposely ignored the news from the TV and walked to the calendar hanging on the wall….
March 19, 2025, approximately a year from the accident from my previous life…
Like a string puppet whose strings have been cut, I helplessly fell on that spot.
"Lex!!!"
Mother Misa… no Madam Misa and Mr. Clive immediately ran towards me. The world that was full of colors slowly faded away. It lost its beautiful color. Everything became black and white in my eyes.
Actually, I have started suspecting it since six months ago. Everything was too similar to my original world. But I still held hope in my heart. (no way) (this is just a coincidence) I kept denying it. But I know now, it wasn't that my parents never used magic. It's just that there's was no magic in this world to begin with.
The English language, the electronic goods, other kinds of stuff, and now the names of countries practically the same. Unmistakably this world is my old world. After being hit with this much evidence, there's just no way I can deny it any further.
"haha.... ha..." I let out a bitter laugh from my dry throat. Then I stopped moving all along. I felt numb.
Madam Misa immediately lifted me to examine my body while Clive only stood there with a worried look. But I didn't budge. I just keep looking at the wall behind them with empty eyes, no sadness, anger, or tears. Just... just empty.
