Chapter 4 - You

"Wait where the hell am I?Just a moment ago I was in the fog and I just took a swig from that chalice.And now I got transported to a cave?"Gun said while looking around.The cave was dimly illuminated by a single torch.He looked around the cave and all he could see was a ravaged library with scattered books all around a small wooden bed a simple dining table with chairs and two full buckets of water.

As he looked down he found himself standing on a strange circle.With weird letters and design's on it."Huh? wait this circle kinda looks like those magic circle's I used to read about in fantasy/iskea manga.Man if it wasn't for those light novels, manga and manhwa i used to carry in my space ring i wouldve gone insane kicking that fucking wall."AS gun said that he started caressing his ring finger."Wait where the hell is my space ring! ....

It's not on my other finger's as well! Wait why are my hands so small!!!"Gun exclaimed as he looked at his now visible smaller hands.As he started examining his body he said."It's not just my hands that have gotten smaller it's my entire body.And also i can't feel my ki anymore.What's happened to me!"As gun said that he grabbed the torch and started walking to one of the bucket's of water as he stared at the reflection.

What met him was a teenager in his early teens around 13 to 14 years old.He exuded a youthful charm with his strikingly handsome features. His Raven-black hair, styled in a tousled and textured manner, added a touch of effortless cool to his appearance. The layers of his hair gave it volume, and he had a slightly unkempt look, with the strands styled upwards and outwards at the top, while being shorter on the sides.His ivory skin provided a stark contrast to his Raven-Black hair, highlighting his sharp, attractive features.But none of his feature's were as noticeable as his cloudy eyes.If he didn't now any better he would have said that he had some form of cataract, but he could see perfectly fine."Wow my appearance totally changed.I don't know if i should be happy about it or sad.Although this body is handsome, it's quite young and weak.It doesn't boast of any special physique like my previous one did.This means that cultivating ki will take longer."

Gun thought, as he finished thinking that his eyes suddenly look at the ravaged library." I am assuming i took over somebody's body what happened to the original owner?

And also instead of becoming a god i was reincarnated or transmigrated instead.I am not going to curse out such chance."

To anyone else this might have seemed like a scam but to Gun it was a dream come true.Why you might ask well the reason was simple.Because gun would rather gain his power through his training and or experience in fighting.To many people kicking a unbreakable wall for a millennium trying to attain godhood.Then succeeding and instead of becoming a god they instead reincarnated or transmigrated they would be livid, mad and fuming.But to gun this was his dream come true if he could restart his life over again in a body that didn't have permanent muscle atrophy or any kind of disability then that was simply far better then becoming a god through somebody or something else's grace. He would much rather become a god through tough training and fighting."Well let's go see if there is something useful in that library."Said gun while walking towards, the small library as he entered he could see hundred's and thousand's of books. All of a sudden as he entered the library seems to have gotten bigger.

When he first looked at the library he just thought it was a bunch of bookshelves but after he got closer the bookshelves seems to have gotten more numerous."Spatial manipulation seems this guy wasn't just some nobody.Or maybe this is some form of ruin that the original owner stumbled into judging by how old those books look.Anyways that's not currently that important.What is important is determining where i am.This might be a completely new world or this might be my old world in the far past or the far future.Well maybe not the future since it's destroyed."Gun thought that as he walked towards the library.As he came closer to one of the bookshelves he grabbed one of the book that was laying on the ground scattered.

As he was flipping through the pages.There were only six words written on all of them.

DO NOT TRUST WHAT HE SAYS.

There was no title on the book, almost as if. Something erased it.After he double checked the book to look if he missed something he went and grabbed another one from the ground.As he was checking the second book he grabbed, it was the same thing as the first one.No title, no description and the same six words.He grabbed another one and another one and another one.But it was all the same regardless of which book he grabbed.

few hours passed...

AS Gun looked through the final book in the library it was still all the same.The same six words with the book not having a title or description."How annoying i wasted so much time for nothing.aaahnn Man I'm pretty tired after that.Well let's just rest for now we can find clues in the morning or in the night.Well I don't know what time it is since I'm so deep in this cave.Well that doesn't matter let's just go to sleep."He started walking from the library to the bed.As he finnally was just a few centimeters away from it.He plopped down on it.The bed was extremly hard and unpleasant to sleep on.But Gun was so tired that he didn't even care.As he put his head on the straw pillow.He felt like something was beneath it.

He grabbed the pillow and lifted it up.Underneath it was a small mirror.As he grabbed the mirror to look at it he was shocked.When he looked at the reflection, he saw was.A middle-aged man with emerald green eyes that seemed to sparkle with a hint of mystery. His thick, luscious beard frames his face, giving him a rugged yet distinguished look. His light brown skin has a warm, earthy tone, complementing his long, flowing brown hair that cascades down his shoulders. He has a balanced appearance, not strikingly handsome but possessing a unique charm that makes him stand out in a crowd.The person he was looking at was himself.Or more accurately, his past self before he drank from the chalice of renaissance."What the hell is this!"

Gun said.

Then suddenly.
