Chapter 15 - The Cursed One

«•••••••••••••••≤ Author's POV ≥•••••••••••••••••»

Both Mathew and Issac were unaware that someone was there observing them from the shadows.

The shadow had been there observing them from there from their first conversation, it was not just them every one of the Otherworld is being surveillance.

Every one of them had someone always on their tails following every one of their actions and words.

The Otherwolders may think that people from Fantasia are friendly and righteous but it's for the truth.

[Author: Remember this,

If someone constantly smiles, even at a stranger it doesn't mean they're 'Kind', sometimes it's just that you don't know the meaning behind those smiles.]

Not knowing that thay are being monitored 24/7 by the 'Fantasians' the naive people from Earth had been exposing all their secrets only to have them later come back to bite their butts.

Once Mathew left the shadow suddenly disappeared from the spot and reappear in a Luxurious room.

The room's Luxury and design would put the Master bedroom from back on Medival earth to shame.

The room itself was big had a palace hall, the room had its windows opened, and by the curtain was a woman with a glass of expensive wine standing by the window.

The shadow suddenly appeared behind the woman swiftly but she seems to be not startled by the sudden visit of the intruder.

The shadow slowly knelt and said,

" I have something to report my Lady"

The woman without even turning her head behind asked

"What is it? , That is it so important, that makes you interrupt me in between my drinks."

" A subordinate of one the Candidate's made connect with 'Target'."

Hearing the word cursed one the intoxicated face of the woman changed into a serious one, she exclaimed: " And!!"

" The 'Target' seems to be highly intelligent. He appears to be started suspecting our intentions and being wary of our motives "

After hearing that, the woman expressed an annoyed expression and replied

"Go keep an eye on him and report to me if does anything unusual immediately"

As soon as we shadow left, she looked up at the two moons that were visible through the window.

Brushing her hair with one hand, the annoyed expression on the women's face slowly changes it into a charming smile.

The smile seems to be so enchanting that even the moons were so mesmerized by it and didn't want to leave the spots.

" Looks like my intuition was right on spot,

So you are not a pushover after all,"

With her fingers playing around the edges of glass she continued,

" Now struggle with all your might, because an easy prey is no Fun , entertain me.

Show me what you are capable of, little worm."

Then she took a sip from her glass and whispered in a soft voice,

"A cursed one from another world, How amusing."

After saying so the woman poured herself another glass of wine and started severing it with an intoxicating experience.

The site of which would just by a glimpse lead kingdoms and counties to war.

It's was a pleasant morning with the warm sun smiling through the curtains of the infirmary.

*chirp* *chirp*

As soon as I heard the sounds of birds chirping through the window of the infirmary.

I quickly stood up from the bed and scanned around the room to check for any roommates but the infirmary was devoid of any person other than me.

Yesterday, was the first time I was able to have a proper peaceful rest in an actual bed without being disturbed.

If I was at home my day would have started with my parent's fight or my father's abuse, and I won't be able to sleep in school either because some teachers and students who want to get on the good books of Owen would do something to me.

My life pretty much was always on the edge of survival and this sudden change in settings, from survival to peaceful is a little bit new to me.

Not wanting to be late for the class, I took a spare brush and stuff that was available in the infirmary cupboard and freshened up in a jiffy.

After finishing all my daily chores, I searched around the cupboards and tables of the infirmary for any availability of the fruits I had yesterday.

Unable to find anything to dine on, I filled my stomach with water. Well since it wasn't my first time doing so I wasn't really grumpy about it, anything is better than nothing.

But once the water touched my tongue, I was amazed to find out that even the water tasted as sweet as honey in this world.

I wanted to know more about the reason why all the foods in this world taste so good than their counterparts on earth.

Was it due to the presence of mana or is it something else?

If only my mom could ha od like this back on Earth she wouldn't have to suffer from any of those illnesses.

Damn, if only I could take or send a few of these back to Earth.

Just the thought of me enjoying foods like this here while my mother is still suffering back on Earth,

stop my intention to have any more of the fruits.

With a painful expression, I looked up at the morning sun which reminds me of my mother's warm smile, and asked.

"Mom I want to know how you're doing ?. Are you still suffering and crying over death my death there?

I really hope I could once again see your smile, mom"

As soon completed the sentence tears started flowing from my eyes.

I don't know what had gotten into me.

I have never been like this, even when I was being humiliated or had to go through the worst situations have never once cried in my life.

But after coming here, I seem to have become a Crybaby, Who just keeps crying every day.

[Author: At Last, the Snotnose pansy finally understands. Dude come on man we all know you're upset about what happened to you and worried about your mom.

Your crying won't be helping her by any means, so if you really want to do something, get your lazy ass up and go find a way to return or live a life that would make you worthy of being called her son.]

Suddenly I don't know what happened but I felt like someone was looking at me and consoling me from somewhere else.

It made me feel assured, calmed me down, and gave me new resolve to become strong.

With that, I made a promise to myself that this would be the last time that I shed tears giving into my emotions.

And from this day on I will strive to become someone Great, So great that the entire universe will one day know my name.

With my newfound resolve, I wiped my tears and washed my face, and waited for Mathew to come and take me to the class.

Even though I had gone to the class once before, my mind was not clear at the time and I hadn't noted down the paths in the castle.

Not wanting to step out and get into trouble for stepping into someplace I shouldn't, I had asked Mathew to take me a tour around 'the Academy'

later.

Within a few minutes, after I finish making my resolve Mathew arrived at the infirmary with Calton and with someone I really didn't expect to visit me, 'Owen'.

If he had just appeared in front of me a few minutes ago, I would have really grabbed him by his collar.

But now I have made up my mind, a new resolve and I don't want to dwell in the past.

I suppressed my urges to do and took it as my first trial in achieving my new Goals.

With a smile on my face, I greeted them and to my surprise, they even greeted me back ( except for Calton ), even Owen who always used to look down on me nodded his head.

Seeing that, the fake smile that I had truly bloomed into a real one.

And with a pleasant smile, taking their greeting as my first successful step in achieving my new goals, I followed them to the class.
