"Mom, dad is calling you."
A teenage girl looked so careful in calling an older woman.
Amber didn't get the answer she wanted, thinking of calling her mother back.
"Mom--"
"I'll catch up with you later. Is Norman in his room?" Maria rebutted in a low voice.
The hand took a small towel that she used to wipe the body of the young man who looked sound asleep, put the object in a small basin filled with water and wrung it out.
"He's in the room. Mom, dad--"
"Can't you read the situation? Something hurts here."
Amber was surprised to hear her mother's words, Maria usually didn't act like this. It felt like Amber was so far away from Maria, and her mother was like another person in a short time. Amber kept thinking, the last time she was scolded because her actions had gone too far in teasing Arkanza that he was punished. So did her younger sibling, not to mention her actions that made the whole school treat Arkanza badly. All of that was done by Amber and Norman, inciting, and so on.
"Is this because of that day, mom?" she muttered softly.
Maria's hand stopped, "What do you mean, my daughter."
Her body turned and found Amber who was bowing in front of the door.
"I've apologized, Norman too. But why, why do you feel so distant from us!?"
"Amber, what's wrong? Why are you like this!?"
Maria made a move and approached Amber.
"Is it because of that boy!? You're starting to act differently to your own flesh and blood!"
"Amber! Didn't I always remind you to lower your voice when someone is sick? Where are your ethics!?"
Both of them raised their voices, and Maria should have known that Amber was her own duplicate in a mini version of course.
The bolder the more challenging, "Look, mother even scolded me. Am I actually your child? Or that damn boy!?"
"Amber Samanta!" Maria said thunderously.
Her hand pulled Amber's arm and closed the door of the room that was still open, revealing two beads that glowed in the dark.
Arkanza had woken up a few moments after Amber raised her voice, the young man who had the soul of an adult man did not like noisy places, it would be easy for Arkanza to wake up in the middle of a voice as loud as Amber's voice.
Arkanza glanced at the closed door, "If you want to argue, can't you find a place further away? Even though he knows there's a sick person here."
He faintly heard Amber and Maria still arguing behind the door connecting the room and the hallway.
"Strange people, I'll ask Albert to install noise reduction later. Oh yeah, I forgot about that person."
Arkanza muttered while touching his stomach.
"A thin stomach without muscles and so soft, why didn't you ever tell me that it's easy to get food poisoning, especially seafood? Do you think being forced to empty your stomach contents is easy? You intend to torture me, stupid brat! Just wait until we meet again, I'll pull your earlobe. You naughty brat!"
Luckily there was no one there, only him and the poor body of Adam Smith's son.
"Hahaha, I became stupid because of you. If anyone saw, maybe they would call you a superpowered person. But I'm really good, ahahaha!"
Feeling that what Arkanza did was stupid, made Arkanza silent for a moment, digesting everything he had experienced including the dream that contained memories from the body he occupied.
"Okay, you Arkanza, the son of the damn Adam, the second or third child? But the kid who bothered you looks older, ah never mind, just ask All later."
Arkanza pulled his body and covered his body with a warm blanket, "Tomorrow, then think about what to do." he continued then closed his eyes.
The next day...
"Albert, temporarily dismissed?"
Arkan stared in disbelief at the servant who was bowing in fear in front of him, his hopes of asking Albert the informant he could rely on were gone.
"Then you're replacing him temporarily, is that it?" Arkan asked again.
The servant nodded again, "Okay, I want you to introduce yourself again." Arkan continued in a commanding tone.
He crossed his legs, his butt resting on the edge of his bed, even though today Arkanza wanted to go to school, he should have been ready with a neat uniform.
"Ready sir! I'm Milan, 28 years old, favorite food--"
"Enough, state your skills." Arkanza objected.
"I'm good at cooking, I applied for a job as a chef but it turned out there was a routine transfer--"
"Gosh, fine, just like this. Who sent you to replace Albert?"
Arkanza massaged his temples which were twitching because Milan was too talkative.
"Ready, Mrs. Maria! By the direction of the great master himself, sir!" said Milan respectfully.
A moment of silence, "Are you just going to stay here?" Arkaza spoke again with a sigh of resignation, Milan was so energetic for him.
But if you think about it, Albert was not much different.
"School, it's Wednesday remember? My uniform?"
"Ah yes sorry I wasn't focused, I mean me, hurry up young master!" and Milan frantically took Arkan's uniform.
Arkan sighed again, "Follow me downstairs, I'm going to miss the car." Arkan said then left his room wearing his casual clothes.
On the 1st floor, Norman and Amber had been waiting in annoyance because Arkanza had not arrived. But when he arrived, it only added to their annoyance.
"Gosh, you haven't worn your uniform yet?! I can't keep going like this!!" Norman said in an irritated voice.
While Amber just rolled her eyes lazily, "I'll wait in the car."
Norman looked at Arkanza's appearance from head to toe, "You don't want to go to school? Good, you should have talked about it earlier so that my brother and I wouldn't be late. You shameless child!"
With big steps Norman left in front of Arkanza, Arkanza remained indifferent.
"Bastard poor people, aren't there many cars here? Why do you have to wait for me?" he muttered.
"Young master! Wait for me, this is your uniform!"
Arkanza glanced with a smile on his face, "The new waiter is so cute."
And Arkanza rushed to the trunk to catch up with his two half-brothers.
"Hurry up Milan!"
to be continued.
"Why did you two take so long to arrive?" asked a woman with two braids to Amber who got out of the car. Followed by Norman who had been greeted by his friends. "Is this the work of that damn brat again?" asked a young man wearing the same uniform as Norman. "Shut up idiot, I don't want to talk about it!" Norman replied curtly. Norman was indeed known to have a bad temper, his friend was seen looking into the car. "You two didn't go together this time?" asked his friend again. "We left him, we haven't even put on the uniform yet." said Amber who was disciplined about time. It was also because today's duty schedule made Amber and Norman rush too lazy to cause trouble, the Killer teacher named Isla was too strong to be defeated. Luckily Adam had gone to work, so they didn't need to cause more trouble for his mother. "I don't care if he walks to school or something." said Norman in a mocking tone. Because Norman and Amber often left Arkan on the road for unclear reasons, and tha
"What's going on!? Who are you!? And you--Mr. Bodgan, why are you wearing casual clothes to class?! Don't you want to go to school here anymore!?" Hearing the interruption of a more mature voice, made Milan release his grip. "Forgive me Sir, I'm the one who caused the commotion. I'm only here to deliver my master's uniform, I apologize profusely for this commotion. But allow me to help Mr. Arkanza change into his uniform." Milan bowed his body respectfully, hearing Milan's explanation made one of the educators straighten his gaze towards Arkanza. "You brought him here, Mr. Bodgan? He hasn't been to school for a long time and then he comes in and acts up? How dare you are, Mr. Bodgan." continued the teacher. With a receding forehead and a bit of hair, the man glared at Arkanza in annoyance, he also helped Anagata who had mocked Arkanza earlier. "Maybe Sir has misunderstood, I say it again--" "I don't care about what a subordinate like you says, I only believe in what I see. You can
Night, hotel xxA grown man was smoking a cigar in his hand, he was staring into the distance with heavy breathing. Arkanza let the wind hit his tired face, today he attended a meeting organized by one of his colleagues.A footstep he could hear clearly, a faint smile graced his handsome face. He knew clearly who it was but what he found next was something he could never have imagined.KRASSHH!The sound of a sharp object sticking into something was so obvious in the quiet atmosphere, him bead darted in surprise, thick liquid seeping out of the wound, a terrible grin on him face, Arkanza was still so shocked by the current situation."Why..." he murmured but instead of an answer he received a blurred vision.Him cigar falling out of him hand followed by mixed feelings, Arkanza gripped tightly the hand of the person who stuck the sharp object into him stomach.'I don't accept...'The body fell down with a loud noise, he could still see the legs that stood tall in front of him before an
his feet treaded across the hallway, several pairs of eyes looked at her with interest and some with wonder. The hustle and bustle turned into a commotion, the people were curious, as was he himself. Her beady eyes wandered in various directions to refract her gaze, before the room with flats 1-7 made her step inside. Again, all pairs of eyes stared at her, as if he was the object of most interest there."Why is there no notice that we have a new student?" a student said to his friend."Wait, that face looks familiar." said another.Arkanza walked towards the table that was covered in graffiti, he checked the entire surface of the object including the chair."Hm, safe. Still usable." he said calmly.As if not considering the people present there, he sat her butt on the seat. Taking out a few books from the desk locker, his began to turn over the sheets that were covered in graffiti."Doesn't he know that the desk belongs to that person?" whispered the children not far from where he wa
'Well, games like this are also played by children huh? No wonder, trying to be a manipulative early on eh.' He thought, he was in the same position for a long time until the rumors were heard again even people outside the classroom also wanted to witness the sight of none other than that."What's all the fuss about!" said a voice that sounded more mature.'This is it.' Arkan thought."You guys, you guys again! What's going on this time--""Uhukk!"Arkan accidentally coughed loudly, he rubbed his nose which happened to be bleeding accidentally saw his fingers back and made the people around him see what was in his hand.The adult man who turned out to be the board of educators looked anxiously at Arkan who still did not move from the spot, "Can you stand up? You guys are too much." he said again, pushing Arkan to stand up.Instantly pieces of the body master's past swirled around, he felt like he was being torn apart in that memory. 'Tsk, none of these people are right!'His elbow nud
The bead opened slowly with the room dark, the moonlight being the only illumination. he hands held his head, which felt dizzy.he beady eyes wandered, finding Albert the faithful servant asleep in a sitting position."I think I'm dehydrated," Arkanza said, his gaze falling to a tablet on the nightstand.The slender fingers grabbed the rectangular object and began fiddling with a screen, the face detector being the key to unlocking it."Face detection huh, hm let's see what we can find here." he muttered.His gaze began to trace, from the time to the note icon on the front display."Other than the name, there's nothing..., hold on. What is this?"That's the gallery, Arkanza observed the portrait taken along with the date of the photo."Why do I feel something is wrong?" he muttered again.Because the obsolete tablet had been in use for too long, the back end had overheated and crashed."Who can use an obsolete object like this, doesn't he love his life?" he muttered again.A note open
"You have to pull the chair first, you lowly noble." muttered the young man who looked older than Arkanza.Meanwhile, the two women there no longer said.He recognized the man on his right side. Who would have thought that the body he occupied would be that of the son of his nemesis? The son of Adam Smith, the business partner who betrayed him? What kind of coincidence is this? And he could conclude that Arkanza had been thrown into the world with time advancing. 'That means the old woman is Isabella? Wait, but it doesn't look alike. Has it changed? Then Albert, I don't know if the Smith family has a companion, except from his mother? But this woman looks familiar' Arkanza thought as she waited for his food to be prepared by Albert right in front of him.Norman Sukamta for the umpteenth time chuckled at Albert who cared so much for Arkanza, even Albert's suspicious feelings made Norman look at Arkanza even more with hatred."Did the servant even taste the food first? Does he consider
If it was only sent to a private forum containing the extended family, then the body reaction shown would not be this severe. "Hi guys, it's me again. Can you see what this person is doing? Wait, are you sure it's a living entity?" said Norman in a very cheerful voice. His feet pointed to the young man who was eating his food in silence, in a deep bow. But unfortunately Norman did not stay silent, together with his sister Amber, he continued to disturb Arkanza's peace in enjoying his food. Amber stepped forward and poured a lot of hot sauce into the plate, making Arkanza's food contaminated with the hot sauce. "Come on, eat greedily like livestock, hahaha!" said Amber with her hand pushing Arkanza's head to touch his food with her mouth. Then Norman continued to record the scene, Arkanza was forced to eat his food. The sound of sobs and nausea echoed until the food was gone without a trace. "Good, eat until finished. Don't waste the food that the chef has worked so hard to make, f
