Chapter 1 - Prologue: The voice of hope.

"What is this?"

I was surrounded by a huge white void. I don't remember the way I got here, I also feel too dizzy and the only sound I hear is the sound of my tense breathing.

-Is anyone there? -I said hoping that someone would hear me, but there was no answer.

I was about to give up because of the situation I was in, but something made me recover my hopes. It was a soft and sweet voice that said to me:

-Do you feel at peace?

I quickly turned around to see where the voice was coming from, and when I did, I couldn't believe my eyes. It was a really pretty young woman, her hair perfectly embodied the color of fire and her eyes reflected the beautiful golden color.

Before I said anything, I pondered the question she had asked me, and came to the conclusion that her question was ridiculously stupid. How could I call this peace? What I feel is anguish for not remembering what had happened to me.

The girl noticed my confusion.

-What is your name? -she said with a slight smile.

-I'm sorry, but why must you be the one to start asking questions? -I don't know what I'm doing here, I think I should be the one asking the questions.

-I understand your confusion," he said in an understanding tone, "I know you have a lot of questions, and I will answer all of them," he said with a smile, "But first I would like to know your name.

-All right, my name? -I looked up trying to remember it -I don't think I remember it. -I said with a frightened expression on my face -I don't remember who I am! -I shouted.

-What? -he said that while he had a worried expression on his face -Are you sure? Try to remember please," he said in a shaky voice.

I looked up again, clenched my fist and closed my eyes trying to remember who I was, but I couldn't, it's like my brain was reset when I entered this place, I just told him.

-Excuse me -with a sad expression- I don't remember anything at all.

-It can't be -she said with a sad face -Seriously forgive me, that shouldn't have happened -she said with a voice too high pitched, as if she was about to cry.

-What? What do you mean? -I said curiously.

-I'll try to refresh your memory, I hope this will help you remember something of what happened to you. -She said trying to cover her sadness with a sweet smile.

After saying that, she raised her arm and put her hand in front of me, almost touching my head, then she proceeded to snap her fingers....

-Ahhhhh -I said while holding my head.

My head began to hurt unbearably when she did that, and along with the pain came images of everything that had happened to me.

...

The pain subsided and the images stopped.

-Did you remember? -she said nervously.

-I think so," I said a little relieved, "I was returning home after a hard day at work, during the course of the day I had had several headaches and along with them came to my head.... Images of a woman? -I said confused.

-I also remember that I was lying on my bed about to sleep, and it began to shake, then a big flash of light came out that blinded me and left me unconscious," I said surprised, "I don't remember anything else, although that doesn't explain why I'm here," I said a little angry.

-I think I know why that happened to you," he said with a noticeable nervousness on his face, "That woman you saw in those flashes, do you remember what she looked like?

-No, I don't really remember what she looked like," I said with noticeable annoyance.

-Well, that woman you saw," she looked away, "is... my sister," she said nervously, still looking away.

-You see, she has an eagerness to experiment her magic on weak men -she said when she turned her gaze back to me -You don't know how she loves to see the reaction of her victims -she said with discomfort.

"Wow, what a sad way to know I'm weak."

-The images you had of her are totally normal, commonly those who suffer the effects of the magic she used can have random images of whoever performed it on them every so often.

-Mmm, I see, but I still don't understand why you asked me for forgiveness, besides, I would like to know your name before continuing the conversation.

-My name is Erisak," he said with a nice smile, "I can also use magic, and unlike my sister, I like to help people. I... -I witnessed what my sister did against other people just like you.

-Wow, Erisak, what a beautiful name.

-Thank you," she said nervously, "And I asked for your forgiveness, because my attempt to save you caused your memories to be erased," she said turning her gaze to me.

-How did you save me? -I said curiously.

-The big flash you saw before you fell unconscious was my teleportation magic, which I used to try to save you. And it seems that my sister's and my combined magic caused your memory to be erased," he said with a sad expression on his face.

-It's amazing the way you saved me, really thank you very much Erisak," I said with a smile, "However, I don't understand how you managed to bring back my memories.

-Ahh that -with a noticeable nervousness and looking away - It was also thanks to my magic....

The way he told me that it was his magic that made me get my memories back, gave me a bad feeling, but I decided to ignore it.

-Magic? -trying to hide my distrust.

-Yes... with my magic I was able to pass you the images I saw while my sister was doing her thing," he said stammering, "You can say that, I shared part of my memories with you," he said with a remarkably fake smile as he turned to look at me.

-I see, however, I have another doubt.

-Another one? -she said nervously.

-Yes, is there a problem? -I said in a serious tone.

- No, don't worry. What's your question? -she said with a fake smile.

-Why did you only choose to save me? -I said as I stared into her eyes.

She looked at me nervously and said.

-Well... most of the people my sister harassed were bad people, people who deserved contempt, even though they were weak inside.

-I see. And why didn't you intervene? -I said angrily.

-Don't think it didn't bother me, just a little, after all, they were not good people, but when she used magic on you, I couldn't help but feel guilty, you were only dedicated to work and helped those who needed it. At first I ignored him, but I couldn't take it anymore when he tried to kill you.

-Kill me? -I said surprised.

-Yes, the shaking bed, the images and the headache, all triggered by my sister trying to see her victim's reaction to the oversaturated effects. I couldn't take it anymore and used my magic to save you.

-Unbelievable, although I don't understand how you saved me, I mean, you told me it was with teleportation magic, but where did you take me? Or rather, where did you bring me?

-I don't even know how to explain it, let's say it's like my own pocket dimension," she said while looking around, "Don't judge me, I did it in a hurry," she said, saddened.

-Wow, that's amazing, I don't know what to say, I guess thank you for everything you did for me, however.... What now?

-What now? Okay, you have two options, you can either help me with the mission to stop my sister's horrible acts, or you could choose to reincarnate in a new body and, well, start from scratch," he said with a smile on his face, "By the way, I still don't know your name," he said curiously.

-Oh well," I got thoughtful and tried to remember it, "I still can't seem to remember it.

-Right, I forgot that I only passed you the memories I had seen, you'd better get a new name," he said in a serene voice.

-I said happily, "By the way, excuse me for asking, but do you have a connection with the gods or something like that? -I said curious.

-Manfred, what a peculiar name, and from your question, I find it very cliché of you that I have to be connected to the Gods just because I saved your life and brought you to my own dimension," she said with a mocking tone.

-Oh come on, you have a connection with them, do you or don't you? -I said with a smile.

-Well, I do, let's say I'm descended from one. I can't make you reincarnate in another body, the only thing I would do is to pass your case to another God and he will be the one who will make you reincarnate, but in case you want to help me with my mission, then I can intervene and take you to the place where we would have to go a long way to stop my sister," he said with a smile.

-Unbelievable, regarding the options you gave me, I want to choose the first option, to help you with your sister's problem, I should make her pay for almost ending my life -I said angry.

-Thank you very much Manfred," she said with a big smile.

-And how will I go to that world? How and where will I appear? -I said scared.

-Hahaha, don't worry Manfred, leave that to me," she said with a mocking face.

After saying that, the whole place started to cloud over and I started to feel dizzy, again....
