Chapter 1: Awakening in a Strange Land

Adam blinked as the unfamiliar ceiling crept in. His head shot up, as if someone had dropped a rock on him. The room filled with the smell of dampness and earth, mingled with the raucous cries of chickens outside. He shifted comfortably on the fibula bed beneath him, the rough texture scraping his skin.

"Where am I?" Adam muttered, standing up with a groan. His surroundings were considered - a small, dimly lit room with wooden walls warped by age and damp. a bad man A table was pushed into the far corner, and a chopped wooden spoon was placed on it. The room rang with poverty.

He heard a humming sound from a village. The sounds overlapped with the creaking of carts and the occasional barking of dogs. Adam rubbed his temples and pieced together the shattered memories. He remembered walking home after a long day at work, the blinding headlights of an oncoming car…and then it got dark.

A sharp pain shot through his mind. Space stories It hit him: a new identity, a new world. "This... this isn't Earth," Adam realized, catching his breath. The architecture, the clothes, the atmosphere were very different, but it was strange to remember the academic books he read.

A shiny silver spoon appeared in the other hand. The polished surface reflects the sun, which is a beautiful gift for such a poor village.

Adam's jaw dropped. "It really works!"

The old lady gave him a confused look before muttering "Golden boy" and turning away. Adam stared at the silver spoon, his mind racing. "If I got this from a garbage dump, imagine what would happen to something Value…"
