Chapter 5 - Meeting the others

We see Zalmiuth, alone is his room.

The bedroom is like stepping into a cozy palace. A big, comfy bed with soft blankets sits against one wall, surrounded by shelves filled with favorite toys and books. The walls are painted a calming color, and a big balcony with a view of the garden awaits just outside.

Zalmiuth put his hand into his forehead "Okay...So i embarrassingly died...and i manage to reborn into my past life..." he whisper trying to fix the puzzle.

But their were things that didn't add up, how or why did he manage to be back in time. Okay his is glad that he is alive and all...but this don't add up. The power of time travel is almost impossible.

Zalmiuth sigh, it didn't matter anymore. Now the only thing that matter is that...he should not make the same mistake again...he failed once...he didn't want to do it again.

Suddenly their were a knock at the door making Zalmiuth curious.

"You may enter." Zalmiuth said.

The door open and a girl came with a smile on her face.

This was Selena Orkog, the personal maid of the castle. She have red skin,two medium horns, black short hair and yellow eyes. She wore a simple yet detail maid clothes.

Selena: Morning Prince Zalmiuth

Zalmiuth nodded with a happy expression on his eyes. "Morning.."

Selena has a nice and calm expression. Her and Zalmiuth always play together and they felt like siblings.

Selena: Okay sleepy head, take of your clothes and go take a bath! Today will be a long day!

Later we see Zalmiuth at his bath, as his head was washed by Selena.

Selena: You've grown a lot...Can't belive it...

Zalmiuth: Yeah...Time sure flies by...

Selena chuckled "But hey, no matter how much you grow up you the dumb squid kid i love..!"

Zalmiuth chuckled "Yeah yeah...really funny" he roll his eyes.

Their were a calm silent as the two didn't said a thing. Back to his past life, Selena was always protective of Zalmiuth never giving up on him. But Zalmiuth never took attention to it...Maybe it was because he didn't care...or it was just he was worried that it will only hurt her...

It was selfish...very selfish.

...

...

"Selena..?" Zalmiuth said

"Yes...?" Selena stop and look at him.

Zalmiuth: ...I...I promise to never give up you...No matter what.

Selena eyes widen, she didn't understood, but their a strange resilience in his voice. She smiled :

"Alright Zalmiuth."
