"A-Anne, I don't understand. You're okay, right?" My mind turned blank at once. Anne looked healthy, well, even with her thin, dry body. However, I couldn't have predicted that she was suffering from a chronic illness. Apparently that's what the healer had kept secret when I asked yesterday. Anne cried silently, she then wiped her tears and looked like she was trying to be strong. "I did fall sick a few times, but I always treated it with medicine that can be bought at a stall and there was no problem whatsoever. However, in the past few days, my body condition has weakened so much that I can't even get out of bed. It didn't go away as long as I took the medicine, so I went to a healer. And, yes, he told me that I had a chronic disease in my intestines, and it had spread everywhere," she explained. I then sat beside her in frustration. "If it's chronic, then the doctor should have detected it when you collapsed at the party. But he said you were just tired! Are you sure he didn't m

I just stood there with a blank stare, accompanied by a few other men and the faint sound of fire coming from the cremation ground. I tugged at the black mourning coat that Lord Crys had lent me with a sense of unease. Some of the guests tapped me on the shoulder to express their condolences, then they left me alone with only two cremation house attendants. I didn't know what was going on, really, it felt like my brain was spinning in circles as I couldn't accept the situation. After the healer spoke to me earlier, his disciple informed me that Anne was dying. I saw the woman, at the point of life and death, ruffle the hair of her only child who was crying hysterically. Anne looked peaceful with a smile on her pale lips. With her remaining strength, she turned to me with a gentle gaze. I knew exactly what it meant, she handed Celine over to me. Her condition at that time was like a corpse with sunken cheeks and blackened eyes. I even just stood trembling in the doorway, while Lord C

It was the same as when I moved from Swinggelir to Leaflim, my consciousness floating between conscious and unconscious. I was clearly aware of everything going on around me, but nothing was happening. Even if it was just the sound of breathing or the breeze. I wanted so badly to meet Solace and question him about why he had sent me on the day Anne died. It was a very bad move from a being who was supposed to help failed people. I'd bombard him with questions I was ready to fire off, but nothing happened. My hands and feet felt numb and my vision was still black. Why did it take so long? The nausea strikes again, and I hold it in as best I can. I planned to throw up in front of Solace, letting her know that he couldn't mess with me just because I was a failure. An instant later, the faint sounds of people talking could be heard over each other, interspersed with deafening noises. It was almost like a New Year's Eve atmosphere filled with fireworks explosions. The sound of heavy a

This is such an extreme start! As soon as I came here I was knocked unconscious after being thrown by a grenade, realized that there are no supernatural powers in this world, and then witnessed a general kill his own soldiers! That's amazing! What the hell is this? General Collins was still loyal to his position even though several other generals had their guns pointed at him. He had an amiable face that a layman wouldn't believe if told what happened earlier, his blue eyes scanning each of our faces so I deliberately pretended not to see him. "You could be charged with murder!" hissed one of the generals. General Collins casually searched the soldier's corpse instead, putting everyone watching on alert. Soon he showed a rectangular object with alphabetized buttons. Ah, it reminds me of the old-school telephone with an antenna in my world. I didn't experience it because I was born in the modern era, but my mother used to have something similar. "This guy is an enemy spy, infiltrat

I was amazed at myself, really! Presumably the experience in the previous two worlds had made me adept at dealing with situations, ah, or was this the power I had generated in this world? In essence, I was able to move quickly to avoid the bullets that were now making holes in the ground. I rounded my eyes, how could this be possible? No human can dodge gunfire! Adam, who I reflexively pulled until we both fell, showed an expression of disbelief as he glanced at me. However, I chalked it up to sheer luck that would never happen again. Therefore, I quickly got up and returned the gunfire while walking backwards slowly. There were only three of us here, Louis who was originally hiding near me was nowhere to be seen. Likewise, Alex is nowhere to be seen. That's good, that way we can at least minimize casualties from our side. The enemy man then laughed as he scratched his long hair and reloaded. "Wow, are you sure you're just an ordinary soldier? The last time anyone could avoid that
