Chapter 1

"HONK! HONK!"

Tires Screeching

Bam

The driver tried to apply brakes, but it was already too late. He never expected a random man to appear in front of his truck on a clear road.

"Ugggh! Truck-kun, though I did request you to hit me in a few of my comments, I just did that because I thought it would make me look funny and cool… you weren't supposed to take it seriously…"

"Fuck! It hurts!"

Kai, the 35-year-old man who was hit by the truck, felt his whole body searing in pain. It did not take much time for his body to fall limply on the ground, his eyes heavy. He tried to keep them open but couldn't bear it anymore, and soon, his consciousness faded away.

…

"Hwa!" Kai's whole body flinched as he woke up.

"That was a scary dream…" He sighed, his forehead still sweating, but suddenly, he furrowed his brows.

"Where is this place…?" He looked around and found himself in an unknown room.

Unlike the normal rooms made from cement and bricks, this room was built from wood. Though it was clean, it was clear from the furniture that the living conditions of the person residing here weren't very good.

Of course, Kai didn't have time to think about all this since he was already panicking due to the weird circumstances.

'Was I kidnapped?

No, it doesn't make sense. There is no way someone would kidnap me since I don't have any value at all. There is no merit…

Wait, does that mean it wasn't a dream and I was really hit by that truck?'

He pondered several things that could lead him to his current situation. He raised his hand to touch his forehead and felt an unusual bump.

'Was I saved by someone?

Hmm, that must be it…

Damn, now I would have to pay for hospital bills. If I knew this would happen, I would have bought health insurance…'

Kai cried inwardly, already thinking about different ways to pay the bill and was ready to say goodbye to all his games and novels for the next few years since he would have to work overtime.

However, he suddenly felt something was different.

Due to all that confusion, he might not have noticed this earlier, but now that he was thinking clearly, his hands were whiter and thinner than before. He looked down and noticed that he was wearing completely different clothes from what he was used to.

He touched his face and noticed his beard was completely gone, and even his face felt different than before...

Hold on…
