Pain is a sign that a person is alive and kicking, feelings that we get when we are hurt or suffering. But is it true, is it what it is or is there more than just one pain for I remember there are other types of pain. Physical and emotional not to mention also this phantom feeling of pain.
Why am I talking about this, you ask? It's because right now I am agonizingly suffering from pain that I cannot describe.
I remembered being hit by a huge explosion when going to work. At first I thought I felt the pain from the burns I received from the explosion. But I have no burnt marks, but I was still screaming from pain. I asked for help and suddenly a person came running to me, maybe a doctor.
What I feel still hasn't subsided. I am still feeling the pain, and currently clenching my teeth from it. And looking at the people around me is showing negative signs of actions and is talking in unrecognizable voices.
And from what I understand I am still feeling the side effects from the explosion, because my vision is blurry and my hearing is not working properly.
After a few weeks of staying in bed my body slowly healed though still painful. I don't have to clench my teeth anymore. And I learned that I have transmigrated to this world and from what I heard I was poisoned and my power roots were gone.
At first I was skeptical but memories suddenly flooded in to me. leading me to understanding it is true which gives me a huge headache,
To continue my thoughts I think that I was transmigrated to the body of this child, and not a teenager which is four years old at the moment. He has been comatose for six months and though I woke up three days late for his or should I say my birthday and it has passed three days before I woke up.
"Ugh."
"How are you, your highness?"
As I sat on my bed a maid walked towards me asking if I am okay. So I answered back to her that I am alright with difficulty.
"Y-yeah somewhat o-kay."
"I will get your food so please eat."
As she said that she left. The maid just now was not my usual maid, how did I know? It is because in the past couple of weeks of recuperating at bed I analyze my current situation. And as if a blessing or curse my head was flooded with memories of the kid.
I learned that he was very smart and talented. He was third in line for the throne. And seeing his talent grow this happened to him. And as it happened he was then deemed as a defect to the family. So everyone around him left him for himself not to visit him.
But since I was a prince I still had to be saved as it would damage their reputation. So the current maid I have right now wasn't the same as my past maid. And I am pretty sure she doesn't like her current position right now and despises me like the others.
"Huh."
What just happened why did I just consider myself as this kid even though I am-
"AHhhhh!"
My head hurts and not only that it feels like it is also healing but why?
And as this goes on I blank out while the last thing I remember is how the maid ran worriedly while asking for help.
I don't know how long I slept but I somehow felt a lot better than before.
I don't know what to do, I may have transmigrated to this body but I know nothing of who I am before. But I am sure of one thing: all the knowledge, experience and feelings I have are real but my name or the identity of the people around me are gone. It is like pre-selected.
Why I know it is all real is because of the explosion it was real and vivid and that pain connects even here that I am sure of.
So whoever sent me here and for what purpose it is I am thankful but I may not be able to help you with what you want for I am selfish. So thank you for giving me a second chance in life but I am a coward afraid of what's to come.
I would like to apologize to this kid even though he suffered so much it might be impossible to fight against his family.
"Your highness! Are you okay standing up already?"
"Yeah I'm fine thanks for the concern."
"No, sit down and I'll get the doctor for you."
"Okay thank you – um."
"Kiara your highness, Kiara Shield."
"Thank you Kiara."
Nodding she left to get the doctor, it led me to think we really merge our minds huh after all I can I understand their language. And I still haven't organized my memories as of yet I still need to understand my situation.
Before Miss Kiara arrives I should organize my memories of what my situation is right now. As for the memories before I transmigrated, I should do that later. Understanding my situation right now is a priority. If I make a wrong move things will only get weirder after being healed.
So as I was starting my plan Miss Kiara came with the doctor.
After a few checkups the doctor told him the result.
"For now he is safe, well it is to be expected I am one the best doctors of this empire after all."
"Thank you doctor."
"Hmph, here is some prescription please follow them as described."
"Yes of course."
"I will come back in a month for his check up so don't call if it isn't anything urgent understood."
Nodding Miss Kiara sends the doctor out. Damn that doctor was a narcissist and what the heck was that he didn't do his work properly. He was just using his glass to look and nothing more. It kinda makes me think that they left me with a dumb doctor.
"Well then your highness since the doctor says you need to rest in his notes you need to rest okay?"
"Um, if you could please. Can you give me a pen and a book to write on?"
"But the doctor says you must rest."
"Please I will rest afterwards."
"Haaa okay ill bring it to you then."
"Yay! Thank you Kiara."
After that she left and brought back what I requested of her. As she returned there she brought back what I requested.
"Thank you."
"I am just doing my Job."
Nodding I received the book and pen and started writing. The first thing I did was write the alphabet of this world. And it wasn't that hard though I lost my power root. I was still called a genius before that happened so I learned fast and I remember many things like the letters.
"If I am not being rude Prince Dustin what may you be doing."
"Studying, I lost my power root after all, I need to be useful to the empire even if it is just a little."
"Oh I see Keep up the good work prince I'm sure you will do great."
Haaaa yup shes lying I can see at her unresponsive face that she doesn't have much hope for me and as said earlier my name is Dustin. My full name is Dustin Felix D Sagallion the former third prince of the Saga Empire.
And this world is a fantasy world of swords and magic and it got me excited. So now that my body is doing ok I also wrote things about myself and about this place combining with the letters of my previous world this could trick the readers.
Writing many things in the book I begin to recall many things like about the empire, the royal family, civilization and its beliefs. By doing so I learned what the purpose of the power root is and since childhood children will have their own root and those roots are what they will carry for the rest of their lives.
And not many people know this but the royal family and nobles have a way to improve one's own roots. But there are three requirements : the first one is a training manual to shape the root, next would be nutrients to make the root powerful and lastly age the child should not be older than 7 years old. Because after reaching 7 they will not be able to grow their roots the way they like anymore making their roots forever.
And that was different from what happened to me for my root was destroyed by a poison and knowing this I won't be able to use magic. And now that I thought about it that doctor must have used an artifact o check on me so I guess he isn't dumb after all huh good for you doctor.
But that's beside the point because what happened to me is irreversible. I can't use magic.
"Haaa"
Bored I relaxed my body remembering the old training this body did. It came out just like a hobby. Well nothing will happen so why not just relax.
"Huh"
Suddenly I felt something.
