The main character died..
Huh?.... really? i don't believe it, I've seen this before. This is definitely a part of the story because how can that happen? Well the chapter clearly didn't say anything about it being an 'Epilogue'. How will the story continue without him? Haha... Author I know your tricks.
My eyes drifted to the last words written on the chapter
'He would always be remembered for the great things he has done for humanity.'
He died just like that?
Maybe he has a comeback? Maybe... He'll rise from the dead in the next three chapters?
"ugh.."
My head hurts.
I glanced at my bed side table to check the time. '2:46'
I have school tomorrow..
I reached for the lamp beside the clock and turned it off.
I didn't feel sleepy at first but when I closed my eyes, this week's fatigue immediately hit me.
Then, I felt my consciousness slowly fade.

'I guess they already stopped.'
The sound of whatever is falling on top of this container stopped a few moments ago.
'I think I'm regretting my decisions...'
I didn't know fully well what situation i was in at the moment so I decided to stay quiet. The people above me could've had ill will towards me and roughed me up the moment they knew I was conscious and well.

Characters that glowed as if on a tv screen suddenly appeared in front of me and words flooded like notifications on a phone screen.
'Huh?.. is this a device infront of me?...'
I reached out to touch it but my hands went through it like thin air. 'ah..'
I felt a wave of panic at encountering something unfamiliar, however I still read what was written on it anyway for there was nowhere else to run.
My eyes trailed down the series of sentences down to the last batch.

What.
Character..
I read through the series of accomplishments of whoever this character is and the events are eerily familiar...
"Daniel?..." I muttered.
Aren't these the events of your life that I've read through?
My thoughts were interrupted as sweat trickled down my eyebrow. I then started to notice how hot and stuffy it had become inside the container.
Although I already knew it was impossible for someone like me to get out of something that's most likely underground... I have to figure out something.
2 minutes.
5 minutes.
10 minutes.
My fists started to sting but the cover didn't budge an inch.

'This again..'
I lost my care for whatever that thing is.
I was about to die anyway.
...
I was about to die ?
Like this?
Just like this? Without even knowing how and why?
Without even living my life?
I didn't want to die.
"HELP, HELP"
"I'M STILL ALIVE"
I was really panicking now.
I started shouting to get help from the people above me, whoever they were, friend or enemy I just want to know what's really happening. I'm starting to lose my mind and tears started to form in the corners of my eyes.
I'm not someone who cries often. People barely saw me cry.
But just like a normal human being, everything broke at the face of death.

My tears blurred my vision so I could barely make out the words written infront of me.
But then later on, i felt undescribable strength enter my body.
It was like I've gotten stronger in an instant.
Not just my strength but also my senses.
I pushed the cover in front of me and without much effort it lifted up and dirt started to slowly enter the container.
"What the fuck.."
I immediately pushed through before getting myself buried and I felt my right hand reach the ground first. Eventually, i was able to force my whole body up.
I crawled away from the place i was buried and sat on the dirt.
"Hah hahahaha.."
i looked down at where I came from.
"It really was a coffin..."
Down there, was undeniably a coffin though partially now buried in dirt.
I heard clinking as I was getting up and I looked down at what I was wearing. A white nicely fitted suit that had a questionable amount of adornments and jewelry, now smelled and was stained
'Too bad this suit looks really expensive.'
I turned my attention back to my surroundings remembering the fact that I heard people talking here, but all I saw were empty seats, and not a soul in sight but unmistakably, there was a ceremony held here earlier. I looked back at the grave where I came from.
It was definitely not just any grave. The tombstone was made of beautiful white marble with gold accents around it and the letters written on it were gold too. The flowers situated around my grave looked like it was meant for a wedding rather than a funeral.
My gaze drifted to the name written on it in cursive.
[Daniel Caleen.]
As a walked closer to the tomb stone my face reflected through the white glossy marble. A man with blonde hair and blue eyes...
I, was Daniel Caleen?
