A TROUBLED TRANSMIGRATOR

NOT A PROTAGONIST

"Now, this is just ridiculous, I just transmigrated and was thrown into the prison and now the whole kingdom is being invaded, it's just one thing after the other," Alex said as he didn't know if he should laugh or cry at this point, it was acceptable before as he at least had the time to adapt to the situation but now the problems are coming back to back.

At this point, the whole place was becoming unbreathable as he had impurities on his body that he didn't have the time to wash and now the smell of blood was the final strike of a hammer and he bent down and vomited even though he hadn't eaten anything. Belching sounds rang in the prison.

Bleurgh!

After 2-3 minutes, he accepted the situation he was in and began thinking amidst the fighting and the screaming. His optimism kicking in. ‘The whole place is under attack, I should get out before someone cut me to pieces, even though I started cultivation but the point is that I just started cultivation, how am I going to fight against these veterans?’

He thought and then resolutely decided to get out of this damned place that seemed to be a slaughterhouse as the smell of flesh and blood was obvious in the air and the mood was gloomy and filled with madness and despair.

He went close to the guard lying near the wall and nearly vomited after seeing his wounds, but held back and took two seconds to get used to the feeling because there will be more blood and this kind of scene would be common.

After getting used to it, he didn't hesitate and took the sword from the guard and went outside to finally see the first battlefield of his supposed two lives.

"It's like hell," he said as saw the ruin that used to be a kingdom where people used to live but now the whole place was in shambles, there were bodies strewn across the road and the ground was wet with blood, far away two people were clashing with their swords and one of them slashed at the neck of the other which he failed to defend against and blood splashed everywhere and he died.

Suddenly, the one who killed looked in Alex's direction and smiled creepily.

“Oh shit!" Thought Alex and ran in the opposite direction.

"Another one" the killer ran after Alex and laughed maniacally, as he was a D-ranked cultivator he was very fast and with one burst of speed closed a huge gap between them.

"What do I do now," Alex thought as he ran faster and was surprisingly able to make some distance between them.

"Hmm, not a mortal huh? He should be an E-rank," thought the killer and used mana to increase his speed, as Alex had just started cultivation he didn't know how to use mana like that and was just running with his physical strength but was able to run so fast without using mana, if the killer had known this he would have immediately stopped his chase and ran in another direction, because using mana to refine one's body is only possible after the S-rank, but Alex unknowingly strengthened his physique because of his absorption method.

Alex looked back to see a madman chasing after him and he even sped up and was approaching him faster. He cursed under his breath and tried to run faster, and finally, he saw hope or to be more precise, another guard but this guard was someone he knew because he was one of the guards protecting the girl, he tried to hit on in his stupidity.

"Help! I need help!" He yelled at the guard, the guard was shocked to see Alex and the one who chased him, and he was immediately terrified because that was a well-known figure, Madman, yes he was called that because of his nature, he was a butcher and he liked to kill and torture people.

Alex was also surprised, but there were two reasons for that, one was that the guard was horrified for some reason and the other was that the girl who slapped him was there as well and she also had her face drained of color to see the madman.

"Well, you put me in trouble before now you have to get me out of this trouble," thought Alex as he ran in the direction of the guard with even more fervor as it was for survival and he didn't want them to die but he had to to do it to survive, there is no other way. He thought.

The guard was even more horrified and paled as his legs trembled because he was only a newly advanced E-rank and shouldn't even be her guard he got this job through some secret methods but who knew that it would be the doomsday for him because the kingdom was invaded by another faction and he had to protect this burden of a girl, he also saw all the stronger guards dying and they told him to protect the girl with his life but now The Madman was coming to him, just what can he do with his weak strength.

"Noo! Go away! Don't come here," shouted the girl but Alex shouted to her as if he didn't listen to the girl's desperate voice, "Please save me!"

At this point, they were very close and Alex smiled eerily and said in a low voice, "Right back at ya,"

Swish!

But, as if the person behind him didn't like his words or maybe because of instant karma, there was a swishing sound of a sword cutting through the air and an arm fell and the blood splattered about.

Ahhh!!!

Alex felt the worst pain he felt in his life and he fell on the ground screaming, and he heard the voice of the madman in his ears mocking him, "Hehe, You thought you could run away from me? Hahaha Think again,"

He then looked at the girl creepily and said, "Hello, Lady," the girl was of course terrified because she had such an easy and comfortable life until this day, and looking at a murderer so close to her and the blood splattered on the floor she was one step away from losing her mind. And there is not even her father nearby who doted on her so much. It was the worst and maybe the last day of her life. She was having a mental breakdown right now.

The guard had already lost control of his bladder, and his legs were trembling, it was truly amazing to see that he was even more scared than the girl for some reason that only he knew.

Alex was screaming at the side but it was not because of pain but to keep up the act, at first he did feel the pain, the worst in his life, but the pain gradually subsided but it was still too much and there was a cold sweat on his head, but fortunately the mana inside his body was acting up on its own and slowly closing the wound after he tried to direct it after the initial subconscious reaction, and now he had a little idea about how to use mana and he was waiting for an opportunity to make his escape, and the opportunity presented itself when the madman grabbed the girl by her neck.

At this moment, the initially screaming Alex jumped like a spring and used mana as a small burst of the explosion set off and he ran in the opposite direction to the fight.

"No, you don't," said the madman and tried to chase after him and but Alex's speed was shocking at this moment and he was already out of sight because of his use of mana, "What the hell?"

The madman was confused but thought that he must have used a life-saving skill to use life force to run.

“Well, No worries, I still have these two lambs and it is a battlefield so no need to regret it.”He said with a bloodthirsty gaze and a creepy grin. he turned around and walked towards the girl and the guard.

The clouds thundered and the smell of blood pervaded the air. The horrors and the misery of war were apparent in this place. This miserable scene was common in this place and could be seen everywhere. The oppression of the strong was very common.

Alex had already seen that no one was chasing him and he was relieved but he didn't stop and kept running as there was no one on there. So, no one chased him, and he was able to get out of there. Getting away from the battlefield. He saw a forest and entered inside and kept running.

After some hours, he reached a river and stopped there as there was no one nearby so he thought of taking a rest there as it was dark.

He went to the river and looked at his reflection, his face was dirty because of the impurities that he didn't get to wash before, and the blood and dirt, his hair being a mess. Along with his clothes filled with blood.

And most of all he had lost an arm and he had no idea what to do and where to go only had one thought in his mind and he seemed to realize that this was not a fantasy world after his initial daydreaming. This thought was very unnatural in this kind of situation.

"I think I'm not a Protagonist"
