"Done! Easy peasy! Hahaha! Alright, now it's time to eat!"
With that, I left my bedroom and headed straight to the kitchen. Oh, and just so you know, I'm an orphan living alone in this house. My parents died in an accident when I was seven years old, hit by a goddamn truck-kun. Damn you, truck-kun! How dare you isekai my parents at such an early age?! Jeez, I grieved and cried every night for months before I finally managed to move on. Phew. Luckily, though, my parents were wealthy and left me enough money to live comfortably.
After their deaths, my aunt and uncle on my mom's side raised me till I was 18. Now, at 19 years old, I'm independent and don't need a guardian anymore. I'll always be grateful to them for taking care of me, though. As a way to show my appreciation, I made sure to give my uncle's family a generous amount of money before moving out on my own.
As I made my way to the kitchen, the lingering excitement from completing the Daily Quest coursed through me, a reminder of the small achievement I had just achieved. The familiar hum of the fridge greeted me as I opened it, scanning the contents for something quick. I grabbed a box of cereal, poured a generous amount into a bowl, and followed it up with a splash of cold milk.
As I sat on the kitchen table, eating my food, something felt off. I was certain it wasn't a dream—it was real, and I knew for sure I had died on that colossal alien spaceship. I also overheard the aliens mentioning that the drug they injected me with would grant me superhuman strength if my body successfully adapted to it. Unfortunately, my body didn't adapt, and I died as a result.
That unknown drug… Could that be the reason why I'm able to attain this "Infinite Regeneration" Skill? Although I don't have superhuman strength now, I'm confident that with enough training, I'll get there one day.
After finishing my cereal, I realized it wasn't enough to satisfy my hunger—I was still craving more. So, I decided to cook some salmon and potatoes. The aroma filled the kitchen as I waited for the food to be ready. Once it was done, I sat back down at the kitchen table and slowly enjoyed my meal, feeling more content with every bite.
After breakfast, I headed back to my bedroom. Despite the calm beautiful sunny morning, something felt off. It was hard to pinpoint, but there was a nagging sense that something wasn't quite right. Maybe I was just overthinking, letting my imagination run wild, but my gut instinct kept telling me that something bad was about to happen—and I couldn't shake the feeling, no matter how hard I tried.
RUMBLE!
Out of nowhere, a violent tremor shook my entire house, as though a mini earthquake had suddenly struck. The walls rattled, and objects tumbled from their places. I staggered, struggling to keep my balance, and cried out in panic, "What the hell is going on?!!"
BLINK!
Without warning, a swirling blue lightning portal materialized before me, its vibrant energy crackling with an almost malevolent intensity. The portal expanded rapidly, drawing me in with an irresistible force that felt like being pulled into a colossal black hole. "W-What the fuck is th—?!!" I managed to utter a few words in sheer disbelief before the force of the portal completely devoured me.
In an instant, I was yanked into the portal and plunged into a tunnel-like wormhole. The experience was disorienting; I felt as though I was being stretched and compressed simultaneously, with blinding lights and swirling colors racing past me. The sensation of motion was both exhilarating and terrifying.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaghhhh!!! What the fuck is happening?!!"
Before I could fully grasp what was happening, I was expelled from the portal and found myself standing on solid ground once again. The new surroundings were very bright, so bright that I could barely see anything. However, after approximately 10 to 15 seconds, my eyes got adjusted to the brightness, and that's when I realized I wasn't alone in this vast white room. There were others here—humans—scattered throughout the space. I couldn't tell exactly how many, but it looked like there had to be at least a couple million people here.
What in the world is happening?! I thought, my mind racing to make sense of the situation. As I scanned my surroundings, taking in every detail of the walls and ceiling, I noticed their strikingly alien-like design. The walls were adorned with strange patterns and shapes that defied any earthly logic, and the ceiling seemed to shimmer with an eerie, otherworldly glow.
Holy shit! It was then that the realization struck me with full force: I, along with other humans from Earth, must have been abducted by the aliens! The gravity of the situation began to sink in, and a wave of confusion and fear washed over me. For what purpose were we brought here? What were these aliens planning to do with us? At this very moment, I had no answers—only a growing sense of dread and anxiety about what unspeakable horrors awaited us.
Fuck! This is bad… really bad…
