Serkan woke up to another shitty day. Beer bottles and plates of dried noodle pieces stared at his face next to his bed. He hadn't been able to get out of this state since he graduated from university. He had been in this state for almost four months. His dirty and filthy life was never cleaned up. He didn't even have a girlfriend or a normal friend after his last girlfriend. The only person he could call a friend was Mehmet from elementary school. The reason was that they went to the same schools since elementary school. Mehmet finished high school first and Serkan finished high school second. That same year, they applied to the Materials Science and Engineering Department at Çukurova University and were accepted on the first try. He brushed his messy hair with his hand and looked at the computer in front of him. He had forgotten about it last night. A video on YouTube was still playing. A bald guy was talking about survival tactics. He spent his days with such videos these days. He
Göbeklitepe was surrounded by police. The police had given Mehmet, Selin, and Merve a chair to sit on. Sitting on old iron chairs, the eyes of the trio were still wide open and filled with tears. Especially Merve's face and body were still covered with Serkan's blood. Small parts of Serkan's body could be seen in her hair. None of them could speak. While hundreds of policemen did their job, time did not run out for them. The image of Serkan, who exploded in front of their eyes, was still playing in their minds like a movie scene. A skinny policeman with long hair, a mustache, and a leather jacket took an empty chair from the sidelines and sat down in front of the trio. He watched their silence for a while and finally spoke, unable to bear it. "Wake up, it happened. He's not coming back, even if you wanted him to. Let's hear it, what exactly happened?" The trio awoke from their awkward silence, they looked at each other and the two girls nodded at Mehmet. Mehmet began to explain. "S
William felt very lonely right now. The vulnerability of being in a baby's body in an unknown world and the fear and excitement of beginning a new life surrounded him. He knew he had to get rid of the thought of loneliness. He wanted to forget his past life bit by bit, but he could not control his mind. One of the three thoughts that came to his mind when he could not move in his cradle was his past life. There was one person in particular that he always remembered. He wasn't even that upset about his family anymore, but when her face came to mind, he couldn't help but dream again. He still remembered Merve with her moon-like face. Despite such strange and unfortunate events, Merve was still the number one in his mind. Perhaps it was an illusion he felt from remembering the thought of unfinished business. Even if he was a baby in a cradle, every time he thought of Merve, the baby's face, the strange smile, and the drooling mouth that he could not speak showed how much he could regret
The day everyone had been waiting for had finally arrived. It was quite hot today. The sun looked like a giant firefly in the sky, scorching the air. There were hardly any clouds. Instead of being inside the castle in this hot weather, they decided to do this little activity in the garden. The garden of the castle used by the baron was quite large. You could ride dozens of horses in it if you wanted, but it was still very spacious. William went out for the first time. It was the first time his skin was exposed to the sun of the world. Before that, his parents had avoided everything in the excitement of being their first son. When he saw the blue sky and the warm sun, he thought of the days when he went with his family to pick olives in their garden one summer day. Again, a feeling of longing flooded his body. After a while, when his mother took him from her lap, this feeling quickly disappeared. At a long banquet table, dozens of noble guests stared into his eyes. Thinking he should s
William felt that time was moving faster in this world than before. In the blink of an eye, a year had passed and he had turned two. Choice Day was still vivid in his memory as if it were yesterday. In this world, you couldn't celebrate your birthday whenever you wanted, but you could celebrate your birthday when you turned one, when you took your first step into adulthood (16), or when you became a truly strong and respected person. Even if William had a noble father, he probably wouldn't celebrate another birthday until he was sixteen. He was sitting in front of his teacher right now, listening intently. "William, there isn't much I can teach you about the Argos language. I thought I could only teach you some normal reading and writing tricks, but you exceeded my expectations! You soaked up everything I gave you like a sponge. I think you're now as good at Argos as I am. Today I have officially stopped teaching you the Argos language. Now we will move on to other lessons." The pr
William had awakened an hour before dawn. He felt quite rested. He stood up and lit two large candles on the table in his room. When he stood in front of the bronze mirror, he noticed that his body was almost completely healed, except for some minor aches and pains. All the bloating he felt yesterday was gone. He was hungry like crazy, but still, because of his previous life and not being used to this noble life, he could not wake the maid and ask her to prepare dinner. Anyway, he was going to go to practice soon. 'I'll eat later,' he thought. When he arrived at the training ground, no one was there yet. Half an hour later, when it started to get light, he saw Pierce, who had carried him in yesterday, coming with a torch. Pierce grinned when he saw William waiting in the dark. "You're early." He said. William was already ready. "Yes sir!" he greeted Pierce. Pierce just grinned. 'I hope you will not regret it.' He was passing through it. About half an hour later, twenty other sold
Like the sunrise and sunset, time continued to flow. When William turned five, he had the opportunity to see his sister for the first time. Theo had given a great feast when he received happy news from his only daughter. When Valynn turned sixteen, when the mages went to the academy(royal academy) to find new talents, they discovered that she was gifted and accepted her into their tower. She would then be trained as a mage. His mother was overjoyed to hear this news, even more than Theo. Since she was a mage herself and William wanted to train as a warrior for the time being, she was pleased and proud to be the daughter of the one who would carry on her legacy of knowledge. Valynn's affinity was for water and flame, but the affinity she received from her father was so small that she only needed to use it to start a fire. Since it was Valynn's last visit to her home before she began her long apprenticeship, Sophia told her all she knew about water magic. William could tell when he
William eagerly awaited the next day. Since the training ended early, he continued to read the last book in the study. He loved that room and the books in it. He had almost finished all the books now. This was the last book he had. There were hardly any unnecessary books in this room. All these books, which helped him complete the personality of his grandfather and father, gave him a more detailed idea of what kind of people his family was. He was also influenced by them. Almost all of them were storybooks that contained either information about the world or reality. He was never bored while reading a book. The book he was holding was an example of this. His father had told him to read this book last. It was a story book. It was the story of someone who started out as a peasant, grew stronger through various encounters in his life, and climbed the noble rungs. In his old world, he wouldn't have believed it. Because once you were a farmer, you would always be a farmer. In this world
