Chapter 1: New World

This world has offered many things, but we never treated it or we never saved it. We just destroy as much as we want and gain everything.

Roy you must remember "That's how this world's run", These are the last words of my grandfather.

 My grandfather was a simple man. He tells me to just enjoy my life to the fullest.

But I don't know " why did he tell me?"

I  never got a friend or girlfriend.

Because I always began alone. No one ever spoke to me. I don't why?

I think I am weak and I have a sticky figure that is why no one spoke to me except my room teacher "John''.

He is the one who always takes care of me. After my family died in a fire accident.

Even today I don't know who I escaped from the fire accident. It happened in

It's my birthday. Everyone in my house is ready to celebrate my birthday. My dad, mom, grandpa, and grandma all smiled looking at me.

That was the last time I saw them.

My father told me he bought the ticket for a movie so I waited in our car. My parents and grandparents took some time to come out of the house. Suddenly there was a fire. 

Everyone from my house nearby came out and started to shout " Is someone there??".

The firefighters came in time and started to put out the fire but they wouldn't save any of them except me.

From that day I never enjoyed my life till today. I lost everyone on my birthday who loves me the most in this entire world

Timing:2:30 pm

It's been eight years since my family died. I came here to visit their grave.

 The priest started to chant the words and I prayed for them to be safe in another world.

You don't need to worry. I will be safe here. I will be a good boy as I  said to you, mom and dad. 

Grandpa I will try to live my life to the fullest as you asked me but I don't know how to live as you said, but  I will figure it out somehow or other so you don't need to be sad.

Grandma, you are so kind to me but you never told me anything, but I know you will be happy where ever you are and you always will be with me.

Goodbye guys, I am going now and I will come here next year.

Today is good weather. I think I can go out to the park but I don't have any friends to take out,  I should try to catch some friends to spend time with.

It has been an hour, why hasn't sensei come here yet?

He said today he will tell me something important.

Suddenly, there is the voice calling, "Roy, Roy, I am here come here soon"

The voice came," its sensei John"

He told me to come to the cafe "New cafe".

Suddenly, there was a woman who was standing with him and they came together to the cafe. He introduced her to me, "She is the woman I am going to marry. Her name is "Iris".

He introduced his fiance to me.

I was surprised. She looked so friendly. 

She started to talk to me" I heard from John that you lost your family in the accident from that day you started to live with John and he told you're his favorite students in the class" is that true?

Hmm…

yes, I think so...

I have been living with sensei for a long time, but he never told me he had a girlfriend.

It's the first time he introduced someone to me.

The truth to be told he didn't propose to me or we have been dating for so long. He is my childhood friend, we were at kindergarten at that time he asked: "Will you marry me".

I thought he will forget about that, b  

a few days back he came to the village and asked me about the marriage.

I never thought a person can remember some promise that was made a long time ago, but he remembers it till now and waited for my reply and that is why I came to reply to his question.

Now I want an answer from you. Will he be able to keep me happy and safe?

Without hesitation, Roy answered.

"He will keep you safe and happy because he is someone not related to me or my family.

He came to know that I lost my family and he took care of me. He took someone like me and he kept me safe and happy. He was like a big brother to me. That's why I can tell he will keep you safe and make your life happy."

Iris told Roy about his sensei "That too soon, I never thought that he is so responsible for taking care of a kid and it's a surprise for me when I came to know about it.

While we were kids, he is so stupid and irresponsible and he won't take care of anything, but when you tell me about him I think he changed a lot." 

Then we started to talk peacefully, it looked like a small family reunion.

I asked them can I call them father and mother, because when I am with them it makes me feel like my family.

That is even too soon to ask, they are not family or they are not any married couples, and thought it was wrong that I shouldn't ask them.

But they both didn't get angry or they didn't shout at me.

They just blushed and started to smile looking at my face, they told me you can call us as you wish from now on we will be your father and mother.

Suddenly a waiter brought a cake to our table. 

I thought it was for their wedding celebration, but on top of the cake there was "Happy Birthday Roy ".

I know Roy that after your family passed out you never wished to celebrate your birthday. You have always been alone from that day.

Even though I tried to encourage you, you never listened to me. I thought it natural for people after they lose their loved ones they will not forget that day or what happened to them.

Naturally, you don't need to be sad from now on. we will be with you

That is right from now on you, me and John we are all going to live together. So you don't need to worry

 That was my happiest day ever. After  I lost my family for so many years. I got a new family.

That's what I thought without knowing anything about what is going to happen next.

Timing 4:30 pm

After the celebration of my birthday. we went to our home and Iris went to his house. While we were crossing the road   I heard a noise.

"So you're the chosen one"

I heard the voice inside my ears and I asked sensei, "Did you hear any voices sensei?" 

He didn't respond and once again I asked, "Sensei, didn't you hear my voice?"

He didn't reply and the traffic signal changed suddenly. The truck came at full speed towards the sensei.

I couldn't stand there and I pushed him towards the front and I fell in front of the truck.

After that, I don't know what happened to me.

 It was dark and when I opened my eyes.

  I was lying in bed. It looked normal to me and I just stood and went out to look outside. When I went out, it was the village. 

It looked like the village which I and sensei played in a video game.

I just started to look around the village. Suddenly the boar came out and started to chase me. I don't why but I had a doubt and I started to run.

I didn't feel anything while I was running.

It felt like I was just jogging.

I wouldn't stop myself and there was the man who was standing in front of me and I just dashed him and he shouted looking at me Aarush why are you so naive that you can't fight with the boar.

I don't know what to say, he was calling me Aarush but my name is Roy.

You skinny fellow often runs from the danger when will you learn to face the danger.

He called me a skinny fellow, then my body looks skinny and I didn't grow at much height or weight are not changed but why is hair is in the color of white.  I had beautiful black hair why is my hair just changed. 

Suddenly, my mouth opened itself and said, "I am sorry leaders will fight back without fear".

Now go there and fight back that boar. I don't know what to say but my body didn't listen to me. Instead, it listened to the man's voice. I don't know what to do?

I was standing there and a boar came at me with its full strength and I didn't have the sword or any weapon with me .what am I going to do now?

Someone, please save me from this crazy man and the boar.

Suddenly there was a voice saying you don't need to worry about anything. You will be fine till I am here.

There is a voice saying, But how will I be fine with it? 

Then it replied, I will tell you about these matters later, but for now just take this pendant.

I don't know what is with that pendant. After wearing the pendant the voice told me to spin the pendant

It's a pendant that I had never seen before. It had two sides with two figures.

one figure looks like the demon and the other figure looks like the angle.

I don't know what these figures indicate but for now, I can only trust this voice because these voices just brought me to this world I don't want to die even in this world.

After wearing the pendant and I just  spined it  the pendant the voice said it's nice on you and my name is red you can call me us red I will help you from today onwards

Ok now, just what I should do to defeat this boar.

Red told me to just relax and focus by closing my eyes on the boar.

I just closed my eyes to focus and there was a sudden feeling of heat when I opened it.

It was a fire in my hands I don't know what to do with that 

Red said: just throw the fire towards the boar and the boar will die.

I just followed the instructions given by red and I threw it.

Then the man came and told me it was a good catch. You shouldn't run by looking at any danger; you must chase the danger away.

Hahaha…

It's good, you have improved, you must get ready for this year's ceremony.

Did you forget what we were speaking about yesterday?

Get ready soon, we have three days to get ready.

He just said to get ready and he just went.  I called out "Red" but it didn't reply to me 

Red, red are you there?

Where am I now? Red please speak to me!!!.

I must know what is happening here, what in the world is this place and where am I?

Red….
